Oriental effects also prevail in the creation of sum- mer gowns for garden parties and other summer fetes. Flattery - An old Toronto Doctor used to say, "We all like flattery, the only difference is as to • how it is laid on. Some can stand the but- ter thicker and more rancid than others would care about." The old fellow was not far wrong. How people laugh at the flat- tery others are receiving and are tickled by while they have not tha slightest idea how others aft ' laughing as immoderately at the way in which they are receiving far grosser compliments and are tak- ing all the mocking works as the most solemn and serious gospel! Just notice how a woman takes all the soft nothings address- ed to herself with the greatest relish and the profoundest faith and yet 'she can at once perceive how absurd the flattery when these very compliments are addressed to any other of her own set. In fact those who are most frequently heard boasting how impervious they are to flattery, are generally the most notable examples of persons who are led captive by the words that are smooth. er than oil. George Second was not by any meens the only husband who boast- ed vehemently and with brutal frankness that his wife could not lead him, while all the time the weaker vessel wrought her own sweet will with her bragging, blustering, independent lord, There are such poor creatures, and so are women when taken on their weak side. Mathew Arnold was con- smnedly vain but then he knew it and in a gentler way pleaded guilty to the soft im- peachment. It was nice yet funny for him to say to a very gushing admirer you ought to know my wife, she has all my sweetness and none of my vanity." And very likely poor Mrs. Arnold, like thousands upon thousands of less fortunate women, had to do a good deal of hard work in the way of feeding the self.esteem and soothing the ruffled vanity of her domestic aseociate. Buying a Cow, We now sport a nice milele cow. How did we get her ? Paid forty dollars for her, the whole amount being ten cents per day saving since March 6, 1886. On that day a friend of ours ineistecl on treating us to a smoke, as it was our birthday; but we re- fused kindness, informing him, court- eously, t at we had never smoked a cigar, to which ne replied that he averaged from one to three per day, at a cost of five to twenty cents each day, and that he never missed the small change. We told him then that from that day on we would lay away ten cents per da Y as long as we were able to do so, and see how much it would amount to each year. We have kept it up to date, and aa a consequence we have a fine Duxham cow and calf, bought with four hundred ten cent pieces, Small businees, isn't it 1 Well, pro- perly kept up, it will remit in something large ; and while our friend, who, no doubt, 'will see this article, can show nothing for his thirteen menthe of emoking, but cigar situbs and perhaps impated health we can t3how a good cow and calf worth $45.00 in • cash. An Extended Experience, Contagiousness of Run= Emotions, Every day's experience may supply freele illustration's of the lonesome influence of coe tagion hi rthe developement of ell human emotions. Nor is it by any imams to be set down as a weakness peculiar to or character- istic of a feeble mind, to 1.-m blindly suecept. ible of such contagion, Even the strongest wills are bent and warped by the winds of ether nen's passions, persistently blowing in given. directions. Original minds, gifted with what the French call 'esprit prime swat - lea‘, are perhape, indeed, affected rather more than less than commonplace people by the emotions of those around them, because their larger natures are more open to the ayes - pathetic ohmic. Like shipwith every sail set, they are caught by every breeze. It is a queation of degree how much eamh man re• mimes of influence from his neighbors. Miereover, be it carefully noted, it is only by contagion, and oot by any kind of antis. ority or command, that emotions cen be com- municated. It is a matter of common °beer. vation that any efforb to direct the emotione to order has a tendency to produce the op. posite effect to the intended. To challenge a man to be brave is to make him nervous; to bid him admire a person or a work"of art is to suggest to him to be critical; to command a young man or woman to love the elect of their parents is to chill any nascent inclina- tion in the desired direction and to make it a duty for 11/Iontagues to hete Capulets is to start the loves of Romeo and Juliet. We must give the feeling we desire, We cannot possibly impose it. His Own Fault, "This is about the slimmest dinner I over eat down to," he said as he surveyed the table • " but I s'pose onght to make cer- tain eillowances." "Yes, John," replied his wife, " if you would make certain allowances you would have no occasion to quarrel with your food.' Highly nattering. Mr. Hopper-" May I have the pleasure of this dance, Mise Snob ?" Miss Snob (wishing to show her prefer. ence)--" Thanks, Mr. Hopper, I don't dance with every Tom Dick -and -Harry, but I'll make an exception of you." Taking no Chances. Pa Jones (soberly) Clara, young Mr. Sampson came to me to -day, and said you had promised to be his wife if he could gain my consent." Clara -"Yes, papa." "But you are already engaged to Mr Babbit." "Yes, papa (with drooping eyes and a beautiful blush), but I wanted to be on the safe side." An Average Cook, "How do you like housekeeping, my dear," inquired Mrs. Matron of Mrs. New- lywed. . "Oh, it's just lovely Charley thinks it's delightful! It's such a pleargint change, he says, from boarding-house fare, and he just raves over my cooking. I love to plan and prepare our little meals. Do stay for tea. You really must. It won't inconvenience me in the least. All I have to do will be to lay another plate. have everything all ready, and will only have to speak to our girl, and tell her there is to be one extra." And when she spoke to the girl she said: "Run around to the. baker's and get a dozen fresh rolls, a pound of assorted cake and some lady fingers. and stop at the grocer's and get some canned beef; and get some cold boiled tongue at the delicatessen store; and a jar of raspberry preserves, and seine tarts. I guess that'll be all we want but the tea -and you can make that." He thought it Was Shortcake. Boarder -Strawberry shortcake, Mrs. Stew? Mrs. Stew -No, Mr. Fickle; it is plain strawberry cake. Boarder -Ohl I thought it was strawberry shortcake, as I find my piece rather short of berries. Young lady -I heard somebody kiss you in the dark hall last night. Maid -You got kissed, too. "Yes, but that's the young man to whom I ani engaged to be married. There is no harm in that." "I'm glad to hear it. He was the young man you heard kissing me in the hell last night.' Young lady faints. "Ye," said the general, "our Indian allies were very helpful, although their lack of knowledge of the English language fre- quently gave rise to embarrassing situations. I remember particularly at the battle of Tippo Tibati an alarm was sounded and 1 gave the order 'To arms,' and every mother's son of them mistook my meaning and took to their legs." That vulgar'bustling, purse proud Ameri- csnized Scot, Andrew Carnegie, is still at his work of astonishing the lieges in the old land and of laying all he can put his hand on under contribution in order to show forth the honour, glory and greatness of his own particular magnifieence and puddle mighti- ness. He has been driving four in hand, not 'personally, but by his own proper coachman from London, to Clive Castle with James G. Blaine and his wife as captives to his sword and to his bow. He has cheek for anything and one might wonder at his popularity were it not to be remembered that there was once another Andrew of the name of Hudson, be- fore whom nobles grovelled and on whom fair women smiled, and that for the meanest of all possible reasons. Let all such go their way. The rocket in some cases rises pretty high but the inevitable stick in due season comes down aa a matter of course and the old, old "1 told you so " is the final and fin- ishing remark. re ea of fe th to go Is 33 of qu ta an Of a so Ca no ha ha Writes a wellknown chemiet, permite mete an ray that Putnam's Pei:bless Cern Extrtictor a.w never falls, It melees no sore epots in.the an flellrn and consequently panilees. Don'b co Recent news from Australia tell of the petition of something like a combined se of Robinson Crusoe and the Mutineers the Bounty, with all the disageeeable atures of the latter left out. It seems at there is a small island called Palmers - n, not very far frorn Tahiti, which has nerally been regarded as uninhabited, but hich the captain of the barque, Queen's land, has found to have a population of persons principally made up of the family a miler who ran away from a ship a arter-eof a century since, and who, hating ken a native wife from Tahiti, has lived d thriven in this lonely place ever since. course the young people are described as very fine race, all speaking English and a rt of fee -simile to the dwellers on Pit- irn's Island, Thie may all be, but it deo t seem very likely that this could all ve taken place, and how the island could ve been planted with bread fruit treen d a trade have Swum' up end embody are of the fad until this Captain :Rtelti de the discovery.

After that a baby should have at least two hours of sleep in the forenoon and one hour in the afternoon, and it IS quite possible to teach almost any infant to adopt this as a regular habit. Even to the age of 4 or 5 years a child ehould have One hewr of sleep, or at least rest in bed, before its dinner, and it ehould be put to bed at 6 or 7 in the evening and left undisturbed for twelve or fourteee hours. • Up to the fifteenth year most young peo- ple require ten hours, and till the twentieth year nine hours. After that age everyone finds out how much he or she requires, though as a general rule at leaat six to eight hours are necessary. Eight hours' sleep will prevent more nervous derangements in women than any medicines can cure. Due- ing growth there rnust be ample sleep if the brain is to develop to its full extent, and the more nervous, excitable or preco- cious a child is, the longer sleep should it get if its intelliictual progress is not to come to a premature standstill or its life be cut short at an early age. He Disliked Dark Complexions. A merchant of New York who availed himself of the services of a metrimonial agent the other day, was unlucky in his experiment. When the usual "professional" fees had been paid, he was placed in corres- pondence with a lady who was reputed to be handsome and -wealthy.

The habit of cautiousness is not, as a general thing, in- born, but is the result of a naturally gener- ous and confiding nature repeatedly victim- ized eby the ounning and crafty. So the many disappointments, and often injurious effects, arising from the use of various vaunted remedies, have induced an undue cautiousness, and, in many cases entire abandonment of the use of any. We call attention so the remedies of Dr. R. V. Pierce, of Buffalo, which physiciana are em- ploying in their practice with the most beneficial results.
