HORRORS O1 SIBERIA.
•
"It is hardly necessary to say
that a *country which has an area
of five and a half million square
miles, and which extends in lati-
tude as far as • from the southern
extremity of Greenland to the Is-
land of Cuba, must present great
diversities of climate, topography
and vegetation, and csnnot be
everywhere a barren arctic waste.
A mere g1 nee at a map is suffi-
cient to show that a considerable
part of Western Siberia lied fur-
ther south than Nice, Venice or
Milan, and that the southern
boundary oftbe Siberian Province
of Somirochinsk is nearer the
equator than Naples. In a coun-
try which thus stretches from the
latitude of Italy to the latitude of
Central Greenland, ono would al -
moat expect to find, and as a mat-
ter of' fact one dons find, many --
varieties of climate and scenery.
In some parts of tato Province of
Yakutsk the mean temperature of
the month of January is ,norc
than 50 degrees below zero,Fahr.,
while in the province of Semipal-
atinsk, of the month of July is
'72 degrees above, and such maxi-
mum t3mperatures as 95 arid 100
degrees in the shade are compara-
tively common. On Taimyr pen-
insdla, east of the Gulf of Ob, the
pecrmanently frozen ground thaws
out in the summer to a depth of
only a few inches, and supports
but a scanty vegetation of berry
bushes and moss, while in the
southern part of Western 'Siberia
watermelons and cantaloupes aro
a proptable erop,tobacco is grown
upon thousands of plantations,and
the peasant's harvest annually
more than 50,000,000 bushels of
grain. The fact which I desire
especially to impress upon the
mind of the reader is that Siberia
is not everywhere uniform and
homogenous. The northern part
of the country differs from the
southern part quite as much as
the Hudson Fay Territory differs
from Kentucky; and it is as great
a mistake to attribute the cold
and burl aness of Dena Delta to
the whole of Siberia as it would
be to attribute; the colda►id bar-
raenness of Icing \VilliamLand-to'
the whole 'of North America.
'To the traveller who crosses
the Urals for the first time in
Juno nothing is more surprising
than the fervent heat of Siberian
sunshine. and the extraordinary
beauty and profusion of Siberian
flowers. Although we had been
partly prepared, by our voyage
Tip the Kama, for the experience
which 'awaited us on the other
side of the mountains, we were
-fairl3 nrstonished ilpou the thres-
hold of Western ;Siberia by the
scenery, the weather and the
flora. In the fertile, blossoming
4111countiy presented to us as we
rode swiftly eastward into the
Province of Tobolsk, there was
absolutely nothing even remotely,
to suggest an arctic region. If we
had been blindfolded and trans-
ported to it suddenly in the .mid-
dle of a sunny' afternoon, we
could never have guessed to what
part of the world we had been tak-
en. The sky was clear and blue
and the air as soft as the sky and
the air of California: the .trees
were all in full leaf; birds wore
singing over the flowers meadowy
and in the c:umps of birches by
the roadside; there was a drowsy
hum of bees and a faint .fragrance
of flowers and verdure in the air,
and the sunshine was as warm
and bright as that of a June after-
noon in the most favored part of
the temperate zone.'—George
ICennon in the `Century.'

FOUND IN THE POOR-
HOUSE.
A Shelbyville, 111•, despatch
says :—Twelve years ago there
resided in Gallatin county, Kon-
tucky, Martin H. Phillips, ' his
wife, a son and a daughter. The
family owned a section of land
and was possessed of considorable
money. The daughter was given
every comfort wealth could afford,
but she became way ward
broke her father's heart: Iialf
crazed he took several thousand
dollars and departed from hotue,
declaring he would f,tt• the re-
mainderof his life be a wanderer.
• His friend; made -every effort to
find him, hut were unsuccessful,
and finally gave hiin up as dead.
A few days ago his son, still
living on tato farm with his moth-
er. in looking over the list of'
pensions allowed saw the name of
Martin H. J'hillip-1 as having been
pensioned for services in the
,Mexican war, and that he resided
at Shelbyville, 111. The son irn-
incdiately started and arrived here
yesterday to find his lung -lost
father an inmate of the poor -house.
The young man will soon tale the
wanderer, who is now 72 year: of
age, back to his once-fprsaken
home,where the falm;iy will again
he re•1lnited.

A NEW IIO\1E TREATMENT FOR
THE CURE OF CATARRH, CAT-
ARRHAL DEAFNESS ANI)
HAY FEVER.
The miscroscope has proved that these
diseases are contagious, and that they are
due to the presence of living parasites in
the interlining membrane of the upper air
passages and eustachlan tubes. The emi-
nent scientists, 'Tyndall, Huxley and Bea-
le endorse this, and the authorities cannot
be disputed. The regular method of treat-
ing these diseases has been to apply an ir-
ritant remedy weekly, and even daily,thus
keeping the delicate membrane in a con-
stant state of irration, allowing it no chan-
ce to heal, and as a natural consequence of
such treatment not one permanent cure
has ever been recorded. It is an absolute
fact that these diseases cannot be cured by
any application made oftener than once in
two weeks for the membrane roust get a
chance to heal before an application is re-
peated. It is new seven years since Mr.
Nixon discovered the parasite n catarrh
and formnlated his new treats mt, and
since then his remedy has become ah.puse•
hold word in every country where the Eng
lish language is spoken. (,t•REs t;F ',Herm)

parasite, of which they know nothing, by
remedies, the results of the application of
which they are equally ignorant. Mr. Dix
en's remedy is applied only once in two
weeks and from one to three applications

vated cases. , Mr. Dixon sends a pamph-

FOR LADIES ONLY.
Ladies—why is it, that when your
husband or your children are i11, you
consult the best physician at once, care
for there day and night, wear yourself
out with sleepless watching, and never
begrudge the heaviest dootoit's bill, if
only the dear oaes are restored to health;
while day after day, week after week,
you endure that dull pain in your back
—that terrible "dragging down" sensa-
tion—and do absolutely nothing to ef-
fect a cure? In a few years you will
be a helpless invalid, and epee your
broken-hearted husband and motherless
children will follow you to the grave.
Perhaps delicacy prevents you consult-
ing a physician—but even this is not
necessary. Poor sufferer, tell your hus-
band how miserably you feel—perhaps
you never did—and ask him to stop
to -night and get lyou a bottle of Dr
Pierce's Favorite Prescription. It has
cured- thousands of women suffering
from weaknesses and complaints pe-
culiar to your sex.
THE BUTTER BUSINESS.
1t is.iudced high time WO were
king as a -pope- Ada- th-a--do..'
plorable and disgraceful condition
of tho butter business in this
counkry. Loud butter becomes
apparently a scarcer article in tlio,
•home market as the years roll on,
while there is a steady falling oft'
in our foreign export of this dairy
product. In 1880 we sent 18,-
535,1332 pounds. of butter to the
British market, while in 1887 we
only sent 5,485,309 pounds. There
has been no decline in the demand
—that is as brisk as ever, both at
home and abroad=but the supply
fails to keep pace with the de-
mand. It is not that our pastures
aro unsuited to dairy farming, for
there are none better adapted to
this business in the wide world.
The causes of' the existing state of
things would seem to. be these:
The great majority of our farmers'
wives either cannot or will not
slake first class butter ; an inferior
article brings, of course, a low
price, and hence there is not en-
emiiageliicnt enough' to foster
pioduction on a large scale; final-
ly, we have not gone into the
establishment of creameries with
tine energy and enterprise which
the t'li'eunastanees demand.
That few ()four country sisters
are wood butter -makers is suffi-
ciently demonstrated by the scar-
city of the tirst-class article in the
market, and the superabundance
of mediocre and really bad butter.
Half the butter made in Canada,
and possibly more, is sold at from
six to ten cents a pound less than
-a choice article will brim;, and it
goes a begging at these low fig.
urns, while butter of the bust
quality is always eagerly asked
tor. 'those be.t competent to
judge believe that the only effec-
tual remedy lot the evils that
aflict•our butter trade is Il the_
fiilil-tij)tieation of -creameries.
What the cheese factory'has done
for one branch of the dairy busi-
eess, the creamery system is cap-
able of doing for the other. It
reduces the cyst of production,
secures uniform excellence of
quality, and command., the top
market price. Last, but not least,
it saves the wives and daughters
of farmers a large amount of
drudgery, of which it is highly
desirable that they should bo re-
lieved. Isere, condensed within
a brief paragraph; are weighty
and cogent reasons enough to in-
duce a general movement all over
the country toward this branch of
associated dairying. -
It does not require a large
amount of capital to start a cream-
ery. The cost need not exceed
$1,500. There should be no
difficulty in raising this amount
in any one of the older townships
throughout the Dominion, and
there are many townships pros-
perous enough to support several
creameries in each of them. In•
stead of only fifty-five creameries
in the Province of Ontario, there.

The First Symptoms
Of all Lung diseases are much the same :
feverishness, loss of appetite, sore-,
throat, pains in the chest and back,
headache, etc. Iu a few days you may
be well, or, on the other hand, you may
be down wibis Pneumonia or " galloping
Consumption." Run no risks, but begin
immediately to take Ayer's Cherry
Pectoral.
Several years ago, James Birchard, of
Darien, Conn., was severely ill. Tho
doctors said he was in Consumption,
and that they could do nothing for him,
but advised him, as a last resort, to try
Ayer's Cherry Pectoral. After taking
this medicine, two or three months. he
was pronounced a well mans Ills health
remains good to the present day.
