Wayside Wells. The caution uttered by Mr. <5. F. Wingate, sanitary expert, against indiscriminate drinking from wayside *welis by bicyclists or other travelers is-one that it will be well to head. Mr. Wingate affirms his positive knowledge of several cases of typhoid fever traced to this cause.. He poinfs out the fact that a well may be considered healthful by those who habitually drink> from it, and may in fact be so as far as they are concerned, and yet be dangeroufe to a stranger who takes only a slight draft.—N. Y. Post. ABOUT THE WEATHER Mr. Wiugleby Explains to Georgia About the Season*. “You see, Georgie, ” said Mr. Win- gleby, whose^ youthful son had asked him hew we came to have different kinds of weather, “the weather is put tip in tin cans, a day’s weather to a can, and usually they put up about a year's supply ahead, enough to last through a spring, summer, aftfcumtf and winter. In filling the cans they sort it all out as well as possible! ^Sometimes when they* get a' can full there may be a little left over, and whatever remains in this way they throw into one lot. When they’ve got pretty nearly all the cans full and the regular stock of weath er has run out, they fill up from that lot of odds and ends. The cans so filled contain what is called variable weather, because it’s mixed, but most of the weather they get pretty well sorted out according to the season. “When they’ve got all-the cans filled, they stack ’em up where they’ll be handy to get at, and there’s a man that does nothing but open them. Every day he cuts a .can and pours out the weather for that day, and of course a great deal depends upon him. Sometimes this man gets careless and pulls down a lot of the Wrong cans, getting, them, say, from the July shelf in the month of April and likely as not getting down a week’s supply at once, so as to have them handy on the opening table. Of course he dis covers his mistake the first can happens* but he is too lazy to put the rest back, and so he keeps on then until'he has opened them all, and that’s how it comes about, as it sometimes^ does, that we get a hot spell at a season* when we ought to have nothing but cool weather. “But of course those April cans are not lost. They must be around some where, and we get ’em later. Maybe the man will sprinkle them along with the hope that we Won’t notice them much; bufr as likely as not he opens them one after another together, maybe af ter some terribly hot spell in July or August, when they are sure to be a blessed relief, and if he does this we are pretty apt to forgive him his mistake in April. ’’—Louisville. Courier-Journal. but extremely good for the sufferer from that harassing disease is Dr. Ayer’s Cherry Pectoral*. No medi cine can compare with this great remedy in the prompt and perma nent aid it gives in all bronchial affections. It stops the cough, soothes the irritated throat, and in duces* refreshing sleep. “I had a bronchial trouble of such a per sistent and stubborn character that the doc tor pronounced it incurable with ordinary remedies, but recommended me to try Ayer’s Cherry Pectoral. One bottle cured me.” J. c! WOODSON, P.M., Forest Hill,' W. Va. “A short time ago I was taken with a severe attack of bronchitis, and neither phy sicians nor ordinary remedies gaveme relief.
