Your sweet smiles have lighted up my life, your every word has been to me a note of exquisite music, thrilling, enthralling me. You have filed a place in my heart, in my affeetions, that no one has ever before oceupied. My lifelong happiness depends solely upon the answer you give me. Say you will be mine to love, caress, cherish, idolize through time and eternity, and make me of men most envied. But if you ret— Oh, I cannot ! I cannot ! The thought is madness. You will be my wile ? I see the apswer of your heart mirrored in yoa,r lustrous eyes ; you know I love you, as no ether man ever has loved you, or ever can love you, darling. I know you will not thrust me off.' The angel assumes a stereotyped really.thia-is•so-sudden expression, and assures Mr. Wordie she would derive great pleasure from being his ' sister. Here is the other way : 'Maude, I've been thinking ser- iously lately.' 'Really, Fred, you ought to be more judicious than to do anything so rash as that.' 'Yes, I know it is a heavy tax on my mental capacity, but then I al. ways was reckless that way. This time, however, I think I have been thinking to some purpose. Iu fact, I've been thinking you wouldn't ob. ject to having your name changed.' 'When 2' 'Just as soon as possible.' Will it be home or church 2 'Church, of course, we want to do this thing in style.' 'Have you asked pa 2' 'Certainly not. 1 do not want to marry your father.' 'Well, I know ; but for form's sake' .All right, dear ; for form's sake 1 will see pa, and maybe you had better prepare ma for the ordeal: 'Oh, she won't mind it.' Deep eileoce reigns again, save as it is broken by the soft sighing of the tree tops, swayed by a gentle breeze. Gleefully the stars twinkle ; themoon looks beamingly down from heaven to earth, and discovers on a vine•bowered piazza two forme with but a single chair. Niels Novelties In Jewelry. A eilver Grecian lyre is a new buckle for ladies summer belts. An oddity in silver is eladies belt buckle shaped like a large wishbone. Anew cuff button is of variegated gold and imitates a fanny sea shell. A. profile of white enamel is em- ployed as a decoration for a gold garter bnekle. A silver ring with a light oat's -rye setting is a fashionable addition to ladies' jewelry. A miniature gold fan with inlaid flowers of enamelis a unique pendant Mr a glove buttoner. Three small pearls in gold star mountings on the surface of a plain amber aide comb are attractive in their simplicity. Three diamond geese with ruby eyes, represented as swimming in a pool of gold, constitute a valuable and novel brooch. Earrings consisting of enameled forget-me-nots formed into true lov- ers bows ate receiving much atten• tion from young folks. Squares of variegated gold en- graved with flowers and having al- ternate centers of diamonds and rubies form an artistic necklace. Five daisies of white enamel with small diamond centres and arranged ist a semi -circle on a double pronged hairpin produce a pretty effect. Three ewallowe do not mage a spring, yet that nnmbec represented in rubies and,diamonde end mount- ed on a bar of gold form an original lace pin. The Goose sone Prophecy,. The true bone is the sharp blade trout the breast of a goose that was Batched in spring and has a trace of wild blood. A. row of dots around the least of the bone forecasts the weather. The darker these epots the polder the weather will be. Oou• Crary to corn husk lore, the goose bone says there will be a very mild Winter. There will not be many days in which running water will. freeze, The coldest weather will some the latter half of January, and the coldest day of all will be January 27th. The January thaw will come in February, and there will be die - askew floods and dam bursting and: the fiend to pay generally. After that we shall have an early spring.

In introducing our Canadian Patent Saw -set we ask no favors for it, ex- cept what it may be justly entitled to after a careful examination and compar- ison with other sots. We have spent years of patient study investigating and experimenting in Saw Sets, and we may say with confidence that we have at last succeeded in perfecting a Set second to none in the market; a Set that will fill the bill in every particular; a Set that'is a positive boon to every man who has anything to do with a saw. In fact it is the 13nsT Set made, so the sawyers say. We claim for. this Set what cannot be claimed for any other Set hitherto made, viz.: That it will orercotno the spring Lark in any tooth. This we wish to mance emphatic, as it is the crowning feature of our Set—a feature that no other set possesses which has come under our observation. All sets made that will apply only the same amount of power to each tooth cannot set all the teeth in a saw the same unless each tooth bo of the same temper. For example, if it requires ton pounds pressure to set a soft tooth, the same amount of pres- sure will not spring a harder tooth in line with the soft one. Now, this diffi- culty, which has baffled every other set we have ever seen, our Set will over- come with the greatest ease. Our Set is called "The Sawyer's Guide," and consists of the ordinary Saw Set, made of the very best steel, which, on one of its fiat sides, is furnished with three short legs, or projections, of equal length, and with a set screw, forming a fourth leg, of adjustable length. This screw, or fourth log, is set so much back of the plane of the three other legs as it is desired to give set to the teeth, and, after a tooth has been operated on, the Gauge is placed with its three legs on the flat side of the saw blade with the screw point, or fourth leg, exactly opposite the point of the tooth. If the screw point does not touch, not enough set has been given the tooth ; if it touches without allowing the inter- mediate two legs to touch the blade, too much set has been given, and if all four legs touch evenly the sot is correct. In setting saws in frosty weather first take frost out of saw. Trim your saw right and the wear on the outside of the point will not amount to anything. In our Set the gauge is the most easily regulated of any in the market. The improvements claimed over the old saw -set are (1) The handy gauge ; (2) The round holes are larger ; (8) The slits are shorter; (4) It has more sizes of slits, so as to fit the saw ; (5) The set is thicker and will not dingo tooth so readily. The slits are also slightly champered off the face side, with the same object in view. This Set is so arranged that you have the most power on the heaviest saws. The gauge is true and handy and is very easily managed. It will not be so ready to break out teeth as other sets. My set will do the work trite)' and faster than any other set on the market. T. McGREGOR, Brussels, Ont. now to Use the `Sawyer's Guide' Saw Set, Take a straight board for a common cross -cut saw, four or five feet long, according to length of saw, and six or twelve inches wide, as most convenient ;. place the board against anything, with edge upward; place the saw against the board, with teeth upward, about one or two inches above the edge of the board ; height to be for sitting or standing, as you ehoose. You cannot find a hettsr position than this while setting your saw. Place two or three wooden )utton on the board to hold the saw to its place, then set gauge ley turning ;crew on saw set either forward or back to get the right quantity of set the saw requires. Place gauge against the saw, or any level surface, so you will soon and the quantity of set you require. Select the slit that fits the saw. Catch the saw tooth for a common cross -cut saw a full quarter of an inch from the point and spring the tooth either way, according as gauge directs. Try the tooth before and after springing. If too much set the gauge will rock side- wise, and if too little it will rock endwise; if right it will be steady. In taking off set let the point of the tooth extend a full eighth of an inch into the round hole in the saw set. Tho main thing in springing a tooth easy is to fit it close. Some teeth needing set taken oft, others needing set put on, I claim that any saw tooth must be sprung past the lino to master the spring back of the tooth, supposing they are tempered even: We say catch the tooth a full quarter inch from the point. This is the medium, and if you go beyond this you go to extremes either way. The tooth will then be set from above measurement to the point, where it should be set. This is as near the point as you will ever need the set. For any saw catch with set the distan;.e down according to thickness of tooth. What is the reason saw teeth got out of line ? There are different reasons well known to the saw man ; of the main ones is using saw sets that cannot master the spring back of the saw teeth. Saw teeth should be set before filing, but if the teeth are very hard and blunt better set after filing. Follow these rules and you will have no trouble with your saw. We have three sizes of sets, and eo have a range suiting saws from the finest hand saw to a heavy mill saw. With this set you finish your work as you. go. The set will last a lifetime, and will do all we say. It will set hard and soft teeth in any saw, and have them all alike, a fault known in all other sets, I don't know of a press set that will leave the saw teeth all in a straight line. THOS. MoGREGOR.
