DEAR Sias: Three mouths ago 1 took
n violent celd which resulted in an attac<
of acute bronchitis. I put myself uzider
medical treatment. ancl at the eiat of two
=oaths was no better. 1 Iowa it very
difficult to Preach, and concluded to try
Dr. Ayer's Cherry Peetorat, The first, bottle
gave me great relief; the secend. which 1
am now taking, has relieved me almost
entirely of all unpleasant symptoms. To
ministers suffering from throat troublee.
I recommend Dr. Ayer's Cherry Pectoral.
as a sale and reliable remedy.
"Prevention is better than cure." A
bottle of Dr. Ayer's Cherry Pectoral kept
in the house, will effectually prevent the
rooting of a cold and its consequent devel-
opment into some dangerous malady.
This remedy has no equal in Bronchial
troubles. The most stubborn cases have
yielded to it use. It is equally effective

A SIMPLE HOME FITMENT.
inexpeneive but Convenient Arrangemeot
For a Literary Corner.
Every home bas iis odd corners and

position of furniture is powerless tri

aid of the eimple materials within the
reach of any one and the eXertion of a
Itt1eskill and ingenuity, be lifted
above the standard of the commonplace
to a sphere of beauty and usefulness,
With a view to assisting the average
housewife in gainieg simple borne fit-
ments Decorator and Furnisher gives an
illustrated description of au artistic
but simple arrangement for a literary
corner. This will be found advantageous
in, hoznes too restrieted n epee to de.
Vote an entire room to a library. Very
often the home conditions will not al-
low of an extra room being given up,
however small the space required for
books, magazines and eimilar belong-
ings. The arrangement suggested by the
authority quoted. is an inexpensive solu-
tion of the problezn and has the added
advantaae of breaking op in an attract-
ive manner what would otherwise be
a long and awkward wall space.
In this instance au available portion
of the living room may be arranged to
make a simple and attractive fitment
or and if care and attention are given the
problem it need by no means look awk-
ward or out of place.
Of course the requirements and con-
ditions will regulate the size and
Amount of space to be talren up, but it
would be advisable to start from a cor-
ner of the room if possible. The shelves
kr books are simply made, with no at-
tempt at ornamerttation, and should be
of wood to 'meta the Rath of the room
or of pine or whitewood painted to
harmonize with the prevailing tone of
the room.
Curtains of denim may be added if
desired. The few necessary pieces of
furniture for comfort and lase and the
books in place, it pretty rug underfoot,
and your literary corner will readily
assume the ,ndividuality and suggestion
of home comfort that go so far toward
eaaking even the simplest room inter-
esting, attractive and homelike.
Photograph Screens.
Nearly every Woman has an acoumw-
lation of ohotographs that she doesn't
know what +0 do with. There isn't one
in the lot that she could bear to destroy,
and yet they are very much in the way.
She really can't afford to pack them en-
tirely out of sight, for many of the orig-
inals may appear on the scene at any,
time. A pbotograph screen solves the
proislere and makes the disposition of
the pictures an easy nsatter. The New
York Sun tells that these screens come
In all sizes, holding from 4 to 100 or
more photographs. They are made of
silk, satin or cedar wood, and the pan-
els fold after the style of the ordinary
screeu. One side is hand painted in wa-
ter colors, and the other is e.utirely filled
with pockets for holding the pictures.
.A. folding screen is it useful artiole in
bedroom, boudoir or living room, and
one covered with the faces of ones'
friends or of interesting personages is
particularly valuable and interesting.
The 'beauty about the photograph soreen
s that if otii-dets tired of the faces all
e'tas to do is to turn them to the wall
and then rest the eye on the pastoral
scenes on the other side of the screen.

than applying it to the boot, because it

the design drawn, as transferring the ,
pattern is seldom satisfactory upon the

worked with great effect. The only .
stitches required are simple stem stitch,
which must be used in outlining the
design, and a darning stitch carried
under the upper threads of the material

the work it is best to do all the darning

CHINESE NSW YEAR'S DAY.
How the Celestiale of the Queen City
Ceiebrated the Brent.
Toronto, Jan. 21 -Sat -army was
most interesting day to about 60 of To-
ronto's citizens. It was New Year's Day
to the people of China, and all her SODS,
who are scattered wide over the face of
the earth. The day was also important
from the fact that it was "settling -up
day." No Chinaman, if possible, will
begin the New Year in debt. The Celes-
tial thinks it bad luck to owe a man a
"oentee" on the saored holiday.
The 22nd of January is not always
New Year's Day. Sometimes the festival
falls in February. The date depends on
the moon, similarly to our Easter. In. the
homeland it is a, period of great rejoicing
and no work is clone for a month. Out-
side of China, however, that is impossi-
ble, as the laundry has to go ou. But the
general festivities go along with the work
just the same. On Saturday they called
on each other, shook their 07;r11 hands
(not each other's) and then exchanged
cardS. In many of the shops sandal wood
was burnt to give a sweet smelling odor
to the atmosphere.
Large shipments of candy, nuts, cake
and various sweets were received and
were scattered among each other and
friends with a lavish hand, But, mingled
with their happiness on Saturday was a
tinge of fear for the safety ot the empire
at home. Like all Orientals, the Chinese
are very superstitious regarding any
changes in the sun's please. On Satur-
day, for the first time in oelituries, there
Was a partial eclipse of the sun and this
was looked on as a moat disastrous omen.

Other vessels at present at Esquimalt,

The officers pleaded ignorauce of any

however, state positively that the vessels
have orders as above.

New York, Jan. 21.-A special cable-

a warship durinee'the recent riots here

ask for a war vessel quick enough to be
present in ease a future riot should take
an anti-American turn. He is watching
the situationclosely, and is better in-

eral Blanco himself.
The annexationist feeling is growing
among the Spanish merchants. They
themselves may soon ask General Lee for
protection.

12. "And forgive us eau* debts as we
forgive our debtors." Forgiveness of sins
in His name is what we aro to preaeh. ev-
erywhere (Luke xxiv, 47), and when we
receive Him Ivo are assured that our sins
are forgiven forllis name's sake and shall
no snore be remembered (I John 11, 12;
Ise. 25), but vrhile NVO are in these
mortal bodies we shall need constant for-
giveness; hence the comfort of the assur-
ance that "if we confess our sins He is
aithful and just to forgive us our sins
and to cleanse us from all unrighteous-
ness." It is the sense of the vast forgive-
ness whichwe enjoy from Him that enables
us to be kind one to another, tender heart -
d, forgiving one another even as God for
Christ's sake. has forgivenus (Eph. iv, 32).
13. "And lead us not into temptation,
ut deliver us from evil, for Thine is the
kingdom, and the power and the glory
orever. Amen." God never tempts any
ne te do wrong (Jas. 1, 18), but He does
try menfor their present and eternal good,
and for His great glory, mud it is blessed to
be tried and receive graoe to endure (Jas.
, 12). lie will never try us above what
e axe able (I Cor. x, 18). As to the evil
ne, He will deliver us from every evil
work and preserve us unto His heavenly
kindgom (II Tim. iv, 18). The kingdom
is His, the power is His, and the glory.
Salvation and service from beginning to
end are all His, and of Him, a,nd it be-
comes us ever 'to say, "Thine, 0 Lord, is
the greatness and the power teed the glory -
and the victory and the majesty, for all
that is in the heaven and in the earth is
Thine; Thine is the kingdom, 0 Lord, and.
Thou art peelted as head above an.
14. "For if ye forgive men their tres-
passes your Heavenly Father will also for-
give you." Fellowship with God depends
upon our being one with Him In all
things. We may want with Him, and He
vrill dwell in us and walk, in us (II Con
16), but we must'be wining to humble
ourselves and agree with Him in every-
thing (Mo. vi, 8; margin; Amos ill, 8).
15. "But if ye forgive not men their
trespasses, neither veill yourFather forgive
your trespasses." 'When Peter asked how
often he should forgive his brother and
suggested seven times as a possible ex.
tense, our Lord answered, " TJntil seventy
times seven." He then told of one who
was forgiven 10,000 talents, but would nob
forgive his fellow an hundred pence; hence
he was severely punished. Our Lord add-
ed,e'So likevvise shall my Heavenly Father
do also unto you if ye from your hearts
forgive not every one his brother their
trespasses (Math. xviii; 21-85). Again it is,
as always, "Not I, but Christ," "Not I,
but the grace of God," Nothing for self,
not even anything in the %%my of justice as
a primary thing, and never revenge, but
always the glory of God thali He may bs
