THIS pleasant and certain cure fur coughs and

ever offered to the public. The use of it is so great that
the proprietor has some difficulty in keeping a supply
for the increasing demand. Medical agencies, groce

boats, keep a supplyon hand. It is called for every
where, and will sell in any place. The reason is this

lubrious in themselves; but mink! there ate no shops
on either side of you.
Arabella and I, before we were married, used to be
constantly taking long walks into the country. Above
us was die blue firmament; around us were hill and
dale, fields, flowers, trees,meandering streams, rippling
brooks, cows, sheep, and other animals; all pleasing
to behold. We returned home in high spirits, and
with a good appetite, both -of us. We had enjoyed
ourselves greatly, and were no pourer thigh when we
set out.
After mart Inge, my avocations compelling me to re
side in town, A rubellabegan gradually to lose her taste
for scenery, and to take to staying within doors, in
consequence of which, she became unwell. Our fined - ,
icul man recommended exercise, and I was obliged to
insist on her walking out with me.
I will not soy where we live, because I am not-iiirty,
ting fur my wife's edification, but for that of the
ets of Punch.. We took a walk yesterday. Pumped- .
int at amoderate pace, in about twenty minutes we
fund ourselves in Woes), street, near Regent circus.
Here my wife, feeling herself a little tirel and out
of breath, declared she could go no further. So we
stopped; opposite to one of those real nuisances to bus,
bands = a linen-draper's steep, with windows of enor
mous panes, and a heap of I know not how much finery.
of all sorts and colors in the same; a regular wife-gin
or ludy.trep. Man-traps are abolished; and lam sure
these ought to be. I tried to direct Arairella's atten;
lion to the wood pavement; it was of no use; she was
fascinated by that window; and there she need, like a
parish boy before a dining room larder. I feared how
it would be, and so it was. I was victimized for a -
thing that shone and glistened and changed color in
different lights; she called it a shot-silk—l a ish the
nein bud been shot that put it there.
My wife now felt wonderfully recovered; as able to '
walk, in fact, as when we set out Finding this, L
proposed going up Portland-place to the Regent's park,
where, if she wished, we might get a seat. But-Ar
, aixdla was con fi dent that she should require nu such
r thing, and preferred turning down Regent street. Af
ter another stuge•of about thirty yards, she minted to
rest herself again; this time it.. es opposite a jeweller'ai
of which the consequence was her purchasing some
tear-rings, and my paying for them. She remarked, ae 11
we recommenced our jourairy, that she could get on
very well by going short distances tit a time, and then
stopping fur a moment. So it appeared, but after
paining a shop where there was a very rich shawl,
which she admired, she seemed to proceed With much
difficulty. About the middle of Regent street, Arabel
la thought that by tile time we got bank she should
, have had wellted enough: I suggested that wo might
!extend our steps to the quadrant. Whereat sholair•
ly buigained with me, in case of her so far exerting
herself, for a certain love of a bonnet which she lituf •
lately seen there, and which she knew would be gone
if she did not get it now. As this would not quits
ruin me, and us my us ife, if any desire of lier's is un
gratified, is gent rally out of temper for some days,
consented to get it fur her.
I wish my wife and other ladies would come to an
understanding with their husbands, as to the rates of •
travelling end conveyance, as thus: For ono mile three
yards of ribbon; two miles one pair of silk stockings; ,
three miles, one silk polise; four miles one boa; five
miles ono muff, &c. But I most not talk of muff's, I •
suppose, after the abet e confession. However, I shall
manage better in future. Ido not object to ladies he r
ing properly remunerated fur their trouble in walking
out with their husbands; but the latter, on the prisiet
pies of common prudence, should know what they hid
to pay beforehand. London Punch: •
