The upward bound in the prices of steel and

lugger in volume than in 1894, and in many
instances than in 1893. All winter goods
are in more request, and jobbers and manu-
factures are preparing to handle a large fall
trade. In the Southern States, where the
recent depreasion was felt most, the reports
are most satisfactory. In Montreal the
volume of general trade seems to have been

How to Prevent Lockjaw.
If your boy should have the misfortune
to run a rusty nail in his foot, as my son
did not long since, I want to tell you what
to do for him, if your heart quakes,as mine
does, at the very thought of lockjaw,writes
a correspondent. I had the doctor, of
course, and he wanted to probe the wounds
which was an ugly one, I can tell you,right
on the ball of chis foot, at the base of the
great toe, Raving a mind of my own, I
made the doctor put the probe in his
pocket, as long as there was no portion of
the nail remaining in the wound. The
remedies used were salt pork, carboleted
vaseline, etc., but the wound continued to
swell until the boy's foot seemed ready to
burst with angry inflammation, while he
suffered intolerable pain. I was in despair,
when a friend from the country happened
to drop in.
As soon as she save what was the matter
she threw off her thinge excitedly,and'ask-
ed if I had any onions in the house.
Well, the upshot of it was that we
pounded up raw onions and made a thick
poultice of them and bound it right on the
foot.
Talk about magic 1 I never saw any rem.
edy act so like a charm. When I got ready
to dress the foot about three hours after,
the inflammation was subdued, the swell-
ing had subsided, and the dear lad slept
like an angel that night for the first time
in over a week. He is all right now, thank

Why One Shouldn't Drink.
Tho reason why drinking should not ac-
company eating, but be indulged in before
or afterward, is, in the first place, because
liquids are food as well as eolids, and re.
pasts must be kept as light as possible at
all costs. But there is another reason.
Dry repasts, if light, lead to a loss of flesh,
Whereas the seme quantity of food, if it
include liquids, is devoid of this effect. It
ia not easy to say why this should be so;
but the most probable explanation is that
when only enlids are eaten the juices of the
body are ca. 1 td into action to erlarger extent
than otherwise,• in order to further the
process of digestion, whence a sensation of
thirst is usually experienced. The body
has thus lost more than the ordinary quart.
tity of water,and if this lo ae be not compen-
sated by drinking it will be replaced by the
body itself, which will draw upon its super.
fluoue fat for the purpose:- The fat is decom-
posed into its elements,and oombustion takes
plume. This process commences about an
hour after eating, and if dunking be
deferred until then it may be indulged in
afterward with profit, inasmuch as ib
promotes the very process which half an
hour earlier it would have prevented. But
in any case, and at all times during the
cure, liquids must be taken with as muoh
moderation as eolide.

We were sitting on the veranda ef our

R, A. and I, enjoying our after-dinner

lazily at the eende at our very feet, for
our house was " builded on the sands" of

only the plunk 1 plunk 1 of the mouotonous

beautiful that it seemed that all that was
wioked and bad had gone out of the world,
and yet death lurked just at my friend's
elbow, as he puffed. unconsciously at his
cheroot.
We had been disoussing in a leisurely
manner something that had happened at
home. To prove some point my friend
arose, and, stretching himself lazily,
eauntered into his bedroom to get it paper
bearing on the matter we had been discus,

bedrooms, but this evening, for some
unacoountable reason—probably the moon.
light—the servant had not performed his
duties. I could beer my friend fumbling
about on his dreeaing table, and theta
suddenly he gave it quick ory of horror and
rushed out to the light.
"1 'ne.ve been struck by a snake," he
gasped, and his face was deadly pale.
" Where ie itl Quiok 1 Show me 1" I ex-
claimed, as I whipped out a knife.
He held out his right arm. There was no
mark on the hand, which I examined oriti•
cally, but on the cuff of the shirt were two
tiny soratch-like punctures, and two little
globules of poison sinking into the starched
linen, and leaving it sickly, greenish yellow
mark.
" You've had a close call, old man," I
exclaimed, with a great sigh of relief, "and
I think you need a pea to brace up your
nerves, but first let us settle the snake."
We found him coiled up on a small mite
ror which lay on the table, and an ugly
looking customer he was,too, ready to strike
again,
He was a very poisonous snake known
as the Deboae Rnsselli, but after my friend
had finished with him, it would have been
difficult for any naturalist to have placed
him in his proper genus.

Numbers on Houses.
At present there is some talk in Berlin
of celebrating it somewhat singular centen.
ary—thett of the origin of the numbering of
houses, According to it German contem
poregy,this convenient method of indication
was quite unknown, even in London or
Paris, until it century ago. In 1795 the
practioe of numbering private houses was
begun in Berlin. The method employed,
however, was thee exceedingly imperfect.
The Brandenburg Gate was taken as the
poiat of departure, and the numbers went
on successively throughout the whole town
without any distinction as regards streets.
