The editor, the lawyer, the minister of Oats gospel, the teacher and the col- lege professor, are all wage-earuers, and unavoidably, when etnpluymout is scarce, they must share in the reduced wage, for The reduction stops with no class of wage earners, and the funda- mental axiom of 'e ages is; Thesmal.l- er the demand for labor the smaller the wages. .11.43144.11110.116.1 John 'McFadden.,of Harwick town- ship, attempted suicide Saturday by hanging himself in his barn, but was found a ;shell titres afterward .and re- .stOred.t4' conSeiouseless, tae is a well to•do farmer, and has a wife and four children.

There were about 50,000 bushels of oats in the. storehouse, and the collapse of the end of the building resulted in about 30, 000 bushels pouring' out on the ground and into the river.

Unless you are handy with tools It will pay you to employ a skilled workman. The foundation is an ordin- ary mitred frame, not necessarily even of plain boards, on which the bark is nailed with boards, or, if the frame bo a small one, it is glued on so that the joiniugs do not show. The large frames have par= row strips of bar glued on the edges, while the smaller ones are edged with a sort of rope made of twisted strands of "sweet grass," which is also sold by the Indians. The bark, which assumes•a dr - eider shape when peeled from the tree, must have boiling water poured over it. to make it fhexiblo, li remakes a ebarmning dada and frieze for a don, which should be papered be- tween with either a gray green or warm rod cartridge paper,.

These are as thin as paper and of varying "shades of ereaum, silvery gray, tau and light pinkish terra cotta. They can be used for postal card, moueboir, glove and necktie cases, . and lend themselves readily to decoration with pen or pencil. Lined with bright silks the contrast is very pleasing and effocttvo. For workboxes and fancy boxes of any hind, either the mossy, outer bark alone is used, or the thinner layers aro glued or sewn to wooden or pasteboard founda- tions and the boxes are then lined with silk, ing-glass more effectually than linen or ehanmOis.

Claude Haines, aged 17 years, has been lodged in Elgin county jail and committed for trial on a charge of abduction and theft. Claude has been keeping company with Sarah Ethei Jacques, who is a minor under 14 years of age.

All day Saturday the residents of Windsor were complaining of the queer taste the water had, and it was so filthy that it could not be used for drinking or cooking purposes. ,Whets the matter was traced up, it was found. it is claimed, that the large pipe at Hirman Walker's barn which carries the refuse from the stables to the large tank, had burst and the stuff had es- caped into the river.

Here• tra�� i Jewels to Match The Eyes. Some one has started a new and novel notion in regard to choosing and wearing jewels. This is to match them as nearly as possible to the color of the spots en one's eyes According to this, a hazel -eyed girl is wise to choose yellow, green or brown stones. Blondes with dark blue eyes are recommended to wear sapphires, topaz, eameos,eairngorm and amber of the deep- est tint,. The possessor of black eyes may be happy with blank pearls and diamonds: Following out the rule of color,light blue eyes would, it inay bo supposed, wear tor- quoise and pearls; the green-eyed girl, but; pshaw, what girl would acknowledge that resemblance to the feline race, even though priceless emeralds were to bo her lot. This may bo a good idea, and in choosing jewels one certainly should select stones which will harmonize with the wearer's coloring, for jewels sometimes make or mar au otherwise perfectly ap- pointed costume and ruin. the tout en- semble One should, therefore, be careful that all the accessories of a toilet do not swear at each other as carelessly chosen colors often do. That in long spells of damp weather the jellies should be inspected, as a very little dampness in the place in which the jellies aro kept will often spoil them. That the woman who goes to cooking lectures and continually quotes the lec- turer in warning'' her family not to eat this and that article makes herself dis- liked. That canned tomatoes aro very con- venient, but that the constant 'smother- ing of every dish in canned tomatoes amounts to an abuse as practised in Amnerican kitchens. That blackberry cordial, thick with spices, is far better as a hone remedy than blackberry brandy, and seldom fails to relieve an attack of cramps caused by indigestion. That all worn-out cotton garments should be washed and cut up into eon- veniont pieces for use in scrubbing or about the kitchen. Old under: flannels make good kitchen floor rags. Thal all the ashes made by the fires in the house should be sprinkled and sifted to save halfburnt coal, which can be used in the kitchen :range, especially. when a slow fire is wanted. That when a filter is introduced into the household it is a duty to see that the water is always used, and not the water from the faucet, in, tea andcoffee as well as for cooking and drinking purposes. That to lessen a coal fire press it from the top so as to make the mass more compact giving less room for air. To: revive it lay on small pieces tenderly and add larger pieces of coal when need- ed to replenish, That only the best olive oil should in used for frying and cooking. A000iding to a recent cooking lecture,the oil used for .frying may be strained and kept for use again. If it has been scorched it must bo thrown away. That in preparing bits of stale bread for breading chops, croquettes and cut- lets, the best way is to pass the tilled and crushed crumbs through a sieve, put the finest into a jar and keep the* rest for stuffing and baking macaroni..` That fresh milk coming frembeaithy, well-fed cows and kept in clean , vesso.* is always neutral, that is, whentried. yeith red 'or blue litmus papmr,`*ould leave bo uncbanteed, Any in ilk Which' reddens blue litmus paper should tea ro- jecteti. ° ''^ Ladles, beware of the many crude imitations df DiamotidS Dyes that are sold in some places.

At the age of eighteen she donned the garb of a French soldier, and for twenty-two years she participated in the military glories of France. With Napoleon's fall her career ended. Her last days were not prosperous. After Napoleon's fall she opened a cook's shop, which failed. In 1818 she marrieda quartermaster of the gendarmes, a -friend of her youth: Eleven years afterward her husband died, leaving her in very poor circumstances: Finally she was compel- led to beg a place in a Hospital des Men- ages, where she dictated her'memoirs and died.
