Waghom % 9 Mullins street, Balmain, N.S.W., “ bat Instead of waiting for the cold to get a hold, my wife believes in keeping Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy in the house, and giving it to him at the first symptom. We look upon Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy as the safest insurance against sickness, and the children take it right willingly.”—Sold everywhere. “Muriel,” said the old gentleman, sharply, “that young man you had in tie drawing room last night is dull of comprehension. All I had to do was cough when the other chaps remained too late, and they would take the hint and depart. Did this one say anything when I coughed last night?” “Yes,” replied the beautiful daughter. “Ho said the next time h© called ho was going to bring you some cough drops.” A briflal party arrived at a small church in a manufacturing district, and the clergyman, to hie horror, found that the bridegroom was decidedly the worse fop liquor. Turning to the bride, he said: “My good girl, I can’t marry you to a man in this condition. Ho is not sober.” “ I know, sir,” answered the girl dejectedly. “ But, you see, when he is sober I can’t get him to come at all.”
