HOW TO MOUNT PICTURES.
Many beautiful pictures that it is a
pity to throw away ratty be mounted
exactly like photographs. Practice these
directions with pictures which are of
no consequence, and you will soon ac-
quire sufficient skill to enable you to
handle the most expensive prints.
First of all prepare your paste. It
must not be museilage or glue. You can
buy various kinds. but tbat used by
photographers is made of corn starch,
mixed smoothly in cold water, then
turned into boiling water, and allowed
to boil until it thickens. A flat, wide
brush is needed.
Place your picture face downward on
a piece of glass. If you have not the
glass the back of a meat platter will
answer the purpose. Moisten the print
thoroughly. Photographers float their
pictures, face downwards, in clean, cold
water, and then drain them upon the
' glass. Pass the brush over them
smoothly-, and be sure that the edges
are not left dry.

THE EMPTY FIREPLACE. ,
One of the most desolate objects is
an empty fireplace in summer. Not even
an embroidered fire -screen keeps it from
imparting an air of gloom to the room.
Still, our cliraate is not such that crack-
ling logs are poesible in July and Au-
gust, and the housekeeper of artistic
tastes must devise some other means of
giving to her rooms a cheerful appear-
ance.
One of the most charming arrange-
ments possible is to place a mirror
against the back of the grate, and ar-
range a long, low, narrow box of grow-
ing green stuff in such a manner that
it will be reflected hi the glass.
Another beautiful and unique effect
was obtained by hollowing out lichen -
covered logs, filling them with earth,
and planting nasturtiums, which flam-
ed all summer as bright as any fire.
Another idea is to pile it full of pine
cones, or to fill with maple, birch; or
oak boughs, replacing them every sec-
ond day, when they will commence to
earl and dry.
REJUVENATING BLACK LACE.
Black lace which looks shabby can be
revived by being washed in strong tea,
which should be tepid; squeeze the lace
well in the tea, then rinse it in fresh
tea, and let it remain for about an
hour; then remove and carefully squeeze
the lace; spread it evenly on a cloth
and beat it between the hands to ab -
street the moisture. Spread the lace I
out, right side downward, on a sheet
of common foolscap paper, Placed On the
ironing sheet; carefully pull out the
points of the lace with aapin, then cov-
er with more paper, and iron until per-
fectly smooth and dry. If it is neces-
sary that the lace should be slightly
stiffened, add a little gum arable, which
has been previously dissolved, to the tea.
Dip a cloth moistened with sweet
oil into pulverized rottenstone and rub
your brasses with it. Then polish them
with dry rottenstone and a piece of dry
flannel. When brass utensils are not
in use, thoroughly clean them with rot-
tenstone and oil, wrap them up tight in
papers, and keep in a dry place.
Kerosene oil added to the water with
which mirrors, windows, or anything of
glass is to be washed will give a lustre.
A pint of water and three tablespoon-
fuls of oil will wash four large windows.
First dust the windows carefully, then
rub well with kerosene and water, wipe
with a cloth, and polish with old news-
paper.
In fillin.g cracks in plaster mix plas-
ter of pans in vinegar Instead of water.
It will be like a mass of putty. Push
it into the eracks and smooth all with
an old case knife. The plaster will not
become hard for half an hour if mixed
with vinegar; but if water is used it
will become hard immediately, almost
before you have time to use it.
In polishing silver that has lain away
for a. long waile and is badly tarnish-
ed, it is a good plan to wet a soft
cloth in sweet oil and then with a clean-
ing powder rub the silver until the dark
places have disappeared. Then rub
with the p.owder and a dry chamois skin
before finishing with a polishing brush.

Have you ever tried a hot pancake
for an aching side or back? Mix flour
and water together until you have a
thick batter, and cook on a hot grid-

the base of the brain will often relieve
a headache, and is recommended for
congestion of the lungs.
To make a good hard soap dissolve
one pound of potash in twelve quarts
of water in the kettle in which the soap
is to be boiled. Add to the potash five
pounds of grease. Boil slowly, adding
a little boiling water as it is cooking.
Stir with a stuck and boil two or three
hours. When the mixture adheres and
strings from the stick it is boiled
enough. Pour into old pans or moulds.

AUSTRALIAN CATTLE PLAGUE.
sinuous or Dollars Lost-Vinancial Ruin
Brought to ThouSands of Breeders -A
New Diving Bell.
The steamer Miowerti arrived at
Vancouver Sydney, on Monday, sev-
eral days late, owing to fogs. The lat-
est mail !advices, dated June 10th,
state that the tick plagu.e in still rag-
ing in every part of A.ustralia, causing
destruction of entire herds of cattle.
The tick fastens itself in salt meat,
and has been exported to Sydney in
this way. Thougb the tick be remov-
ed the egg remains, and the insect can-
not be exterminated. Pastoral sections
of country are intensely excited over
the =expected plague,which has taken
the place of the rabbit plague, and is
costing the c,ountry millions of dollars
=1 bringing financial ruin to hun-
dreds of homes. The tick sticks to the
cattle and eats its wayinto vital parts.
Dr. Salmon, an eminent American
specialist. has bean cabled to for advice,
and Mr. Terhune, Australia's famous
scientist, is on his way to the United
States to consult with Dr. Salmon. Ad-
vice of American authorities is consid-
ered much more valuable than any
that can be obtained in England or
elsewhere.
A new deep -eta diving bellhas been
invented in Australia. in Sydney bar-
bogr the owners sail in their metal
bell, fifty fathoms from the surface,
smoking cigars and bending jocular
messages to a distinguished company

the Khodynsicoje
Russia cannot be judged in tbe ana-
logies of Western Europe. She is still
in the middle ages. The first mishap
or mistake of the young'Enaperor would.
recall the calamity of his coronation
week, in which e reign of mismanage-
ment and. misfortune might seem to
ha•ve been foreshadowed; and the blind ;
ignorance of the Russian naa.sses would
lena itself a ready dupe to the sug-
gestions of secret conspirators. France
at the close of the last century was
some hundreds of years in advance of
Russia, evert as she is now, in knowl-
edge and civilization. Yet in France,
when IVIarie Antoinette beetino.e the ob-
ject of popular suspicion and hate, when,
anticipating the phrase used later teid
on a more trivial occasion in England,
the explanation of every .tolly and crime
was found in the statement, " The
Queen has done it all," it was remem-
aered. that the, signs of calamity had
accompanied her through life.
She was born, it was whispered', on
the day of the. great earthquake of
Lisbon. As she left the church after
the marriage ceremony an angry storm
of thunder and rain, which darkened
the sky and seemed to shake the earth,

Nervous Prostration.
Cured effectually by Scott's
Sarsaparilla.
Hie heart was effected.
"Overwork as a student at college
brought on an attack of nervous prostra-
tion," says Mr. Gilbert, a railway
missionary. "I was exceedingly ner-
vous and if I exerted myself my heart
commenced to flutter violently, and I was
warned that even ordinary exercise en-
dangered my life. But thanks to Scott's
Sarsaparilla I feel better than I ever ex-
pected to feel, for I can now address a
meeting without effort, can walk a brisk
pace for two hours or more without ex-
haustion and am free from that distressing
palpitation. In my work I have often -
thee recommended Scott's Sarsaparilla,
and have seen many cases where its
effects have been most marked."
Scott's Sarsaparilla acts like magic in
restoring shattered nerves because it re-
builds the nerve centres. Nervous helteel-
ache, nervous dyspepsia and all nerve
derangements wear on the system,
Scott's Sarsaparilla makes new blood and
muscles tied strong nerves. Of all drulg-
gists, $1 per bottle. Dose from half to
one teaspoonful.

Tbe generous sympathy and grief of

vive it.

A Seoteh woman was returning by
