Judging from the tenor of a recent
paragraph in an English insurance jour-
nal, it is matter for surprise that it
should be deemed necessary on this side
the Atlantic to give such advice to per-
sons who find their premises on fire as is
tendered in the pages of the Coast Re-
view of &in Francisco. The English
writer asks if it is the practice in Ameri-
ea for persons insured against fire to
make no attempt to subdue the fire or
save. the property jeopardized. It must at

ocean are far more used to the destruc-
tion of property by burning and far more

the ravages of fire than our British cous-
ins. Some suggestion i as to what should
be dune in case of fire are given by the
Review as below: "Give the antral im-
mediately and try to put out the fire
with a few buckets of water. If the fire
has already obtained headway, try to
save property." And it is j...,perly added,
"The policy -holder who makes no effort
to save some of his property, or who de-
clines his neighbor's offers of help, lays
himself open to the charge of incendiar-
ism." Hints as to the duty of insurants
in the presence of fire are added, and
among the points mentioned are several
that people need to bo kept in mind oft
"Act. during and after the fire, as if
there were no insurance. When the fire is
extinguished, look after the saved prop-
erty. Bear in mind that the under-
writers undertake to pay you only the'
damage by fire, not the damage by your
neglect, What remains after the fire Is
yours, not the underwriters'. Remove
goods to a dry place, and separate the

tect from rains and dews and dust with
tarpaulins or canvas, if it is not possible

A LA'IE BACK.
ONE OF THE MOST PAINFUL OF
MALADIES.
]lir. Voter Millar Suffered for Years, and.
Experimented With. Many Medicines 8e.
fore Finding a Cure.
From the Brookville Recorder,
Perhaps no prettier plane is to be seen
in Ontario than that at Newman'supper
lock on the Rideau: Canal. At this
station for a quarter of a century resided
Mr. Peter Millar, who during that period
anted in the capacity of lookman, and
was perhaps the best known man on the
canal. Mr. Millar is now a resident of
Merriok'ille, having retired, from active
life. To a correspondent of The Recorder
he related the following experience: 4' Foe
many years I was troubled with a ]arae
baok,which gave me great pain at times,
and caused me much loss of sleep. !tried
different kinds of medicine but found
little or no relief. The spring of 1895 I
was assisting at getting out ice one day
when I felt something snap or give way
before I could straighten myself up. T
now became so bad that when I laid.
down I was unable to rise without assist-
ance, and I fully made up my mind that
I had become a chronic 'invalid, and
never expected to see a well day again.
A couple of weeks after my bank had al-
most entirely given out, I saw by an ar•
bolo in a paper that Dr. Williams' Pink
Pills hail cured a person troubled similar-
ly, and I immediately sent and procured
a box to test them. Before I had finished
the box I found my back somewhat
stronger so I procured five boxes more
and by the time they were used I found
myself completely cured. Since I took
the last box I have 'not hada pain or
particle of lameness, and my health has
been far better than it had been for years
before.
To ensure obtaining the genuine al-
ways ask for Dr. Williams' Pink Pills,
as there are many pink colored imita-
tions.
midsummer vacations.
Midsummer vacations have commenced
in many works, with the decrease of
orders usual at this season. The custom-
ary vacation is called a strike where
agreements regarding wages for the com-
ing year have not.been reached, and the
active strike of amalgamated iron work-
ers, announced July 1st, is of this
nature; but the strike of coal miners in
Illinois and other central Western States
is not, and may prove costly. In some
iron and cotton works wages have been
reduced, owing to low prices. The gen-
eral belief is that the removal of uncer-
tainty will, in any case, increase busi-
ness. Since much of the future depend
upon the cruets, the brightening pros-
pects are of the highest importance. Es-
timates by persons usually most pessi-
mistic now far exceed any made a month
ago, one promising 550 000,000 bushels of
wheat, with lower conditions, but large-
ly increased acreage of corn. Cotton pros-
pects are brighter, as the orop appears to
be early rather, than late in regions w.tich
were not flooded. Th movement of
wheat is small.—Can's Review.
There never was, and never will be, a
nnitiersal panacea, in one remedy, for all
ilis to which flesh is heir—the very nature
of many curatives being such that were
the germs of other auct differently seared

patient—what would relieve one ill in
turn would aggravate the other,. We
have, however, in Quinine Wine, when
obtainable in a sound unadulterated
state, a remedy for many and grevious ills.

KEEPING THE HOUSE COOL.
By a Little Care intense Sunnier Heat Gan
be Greatly Modified.
"How best to keep the house pool . in
summer is a grave problem," mhoMrs. S. T. Rorer in the Ladies' Horne
Journal, "During the 'hot months the
house is moon more livable if artificial
heat oan be out down to the minimum.
Use the stove early in the morning, pre-
pare certain foods that will keep well,
and avoid the necessity of a big fire dur-
ing the rest of the day. Bare floors are
Very much pleasanter in summer than
straw matting, althottgh the latter is
preferable to carpets or rugs. Where one
oan command a water supply the house
is measurably cooled by reducing the
temperature of the pavement and grounds
around by copious sprinklings. A goodly
stream of new air should be allowed to
sweep through the entire house morning
and evening. The hot air of midday will
condense quickly in oold walls and cause
mould or dampness, consequently it
should not be allowed to enter any por-
tion of the house. All the rooms in the
house should be kept scrupulously clean
and neat.
"If the outside temperature is not ap-
preciably lower at night than during the
day it is almost impossible to keep
sufficiently comfortable to obtain neces-
sary rest, The sleeping -rooms may be
cooled by placing in the center of each a
tub two-thirds full of cool, or better,
foe, Water. This will absorb the heat of
the room in a few hours, and will be
found particularly helpful where there
are children. If the heat continues dur-
ing the night the changing of the water
will preserve an even temperature in the
room, Air your cellars at night when it
is possible. Close them at nine in the
morning and they will be cool and dry
the entire summer, Exceptions to this
rule are on windy clays, as the rapid
motion of the air does not allow conden-
sation. Keep the cellar perfectly clean
and fresh. Frequent coats of whitewash
with plenty of lime are of the greatest
value in summer."
The Power 'it' Well Drives.
Jesus did not create goodness—her fair
form had been already carved in white
marble by austere panda; His office was
to place a soul within the ribs of death
till the cold stone changed into a living
body. Before Jesus, goodness was sterile;
since Jesus, goodness has blossomed; He
fertilized it with .i,; spir.t. It was a
theory; it became 11 res. He: took the
corn, which had been long stn •. d' in the
granaries of philosophy, and sowed it in
the soft spring earth; He' minted the
gold and made it the current coin.
Christianity is in religion what steam is
to the mechanics—the power whiuh
drives. Jesus wrote nothing; Re said
little, but He did what He said and
made others do as He commanded. His.
religion began at once to exist; from the
beginning it was a life. It is the distinc-
tion of Christianity that it goes. This is
why some of us, in spite of every Intel-
leotual difficulty, must believe Jesus to
be the Son of Uod—Ile has done what no
other ever did, and what only Got could
do. He is God because He discharges a
"God function.'"-Ian\laciaren.

cine for these diseases. These Pills do
