THE HURON EXPOSITOR
A YOUng Man Frightened From
Matrimony by the Price of a
Hat.
Ella Wheeler Wilcox, in the April Ls&
Home Journal deprecates the tendency
American girls to the habit of bragging. 0
ly la,st, week, she writes, I asked a you
bachelor who is comfortably situated
life, why he did not marry? "Well, I w
tell you," he replied. "I want a hom

admired a young lady greatly, and was b
ginning to think seriously of paying h
court. She seemed to be my ideal. S
was a model daughter, progreseive mind
intelligent, industrious. She was alwa
neatly bat simply dressed, and her cheerfn
nese was like a sunny day. Recently I m
her on the street, just as she was entergin
from a milliner's establishment.
"See my new hat ?" she said brightly,
I walked along by heroside. " Isn't
pretty?"
"I had not noticed the new hat, but no
I saw a simple open-work straw,on which r
posed a few flowers and a bow of ribbon.
"Yes, very pretty and becoming,"
replied,
"I have a finer one being made, she co
tinned.
This is only a hack affair, I paid onl
twenty dollars for it. It is stylish, thong
for the price, I think."
" My heart sank at her light way of est
mating cost. I have no sisters, and m
mother possessed a knack of trimming he
own bonnets, so I had never known wha
ladies' hats cost. If that simple bit of stra
and ribbon cost twenty dollars, what wont
be the priers of the 'finer hat _being made
Thirty dollars at least. I realized at enc
my inability to properly support a girl svh
paid fifty dollars for two hats in one fleetin
season. What a fortune it would require t
furnish her wardrobe at that rate? Ye
ehe is so simply armed to all appearances
nothing at all showy about her. I suppos
all girls in her station pay as much for thei
clothes, and so I think I will leave marriag
for richer men. The average young man
cannot stand that sort of thing, I &sour
you."
Now, I happened to know who this young
woman was, and I happened to know tha
she was, not an extravagant girl. If she had
paid twenty dollars for a hat it was an un
usual expenditure for her, and would trouble
her conscience and purse for many a day,
and cause her much self-denial in other di-
Teetions.
But she possessed the foolish idea so
prevalent in thief age of great fortunes, that
men admire women who use money lavishly
and who pay large prices for their garments.
EEousehold Hints.
After the juice is squeezed from lemons,
the peels are useful to rule brass with ; dip
in common salt, then brush with dry bath
-
brick.
Bags can be made from all sorts of odds
and ends for work, scraps, combings, shop-
ping, etc. A laundry bag is of brown linen,
and has on it the word, " Laundry " out-
lined in gold silk. Yellow ribbons are used
to draw it up by. Drawn work is a pretty
decoration for these bags.
Wash zinc in a strong solution of warm
water and weld], soda, or ammonia and soap;
afterwards, rub thoroughly with a woolen
cloth saturated in kerosene.
When you polish your stove, shave as
much hard soap as you use of the polish,
boil together in a little water, and apply.
The fallowing is recommended tor bleach-
ing cotton geode :-To five pounds of cloth,
take twelve ounces of chloride of lime, dis-
solve in a small quantity of boiling water,
and when cold strain offinto sufficient warm
water to immerse the goods. First boil the
goods in strong suds; wring out and rinse.
Pat the cloth in the above solution, let it
remain ten or fifteen minutes, frequently
stirring ; and rinse till clean.
Chandeliers and picture frames, if rubbed
oe.casionally with oil of lavender, will not be
injured by Rieke
Sweeping heavy velvet carpets with salt,
cleans and keeps them from moths, as par-
ticlea of the salt remain in the earpet and
corners. Salt is not hurtful, and has no
disagreeable odor.
By rubbing with a flannel dipped in
whiting, the brown discolorations may be
taken off cups which have been used far
baking.
In making custards, pumpkin or lemon
pie, it is better to partly bake the crust be-
fore adding the mixture, that it may not be
absorbed by the paste.
A traveling case of brown linen bound
with ribbon, which has pockets or places
for comb, brush, pins and other necessary
toilet articles, can be made very pretty with
little trouble. The pockets to slip the
different articles in are ail feather -stitched
with silk.
At sorne hospitals, almost the only gargle
need for the throat is hot salt water.
Grained woods should be washed with cold
tea, and then, after being wiped dry, rub-
bed with linaeed oil.
Kerosene will take ken rust and fruit
etaina from almost every kit(' of goods,
without injuring the fabric. Wash the soil-
ed spot in kerosene as you would in water.
The spots must be washed in the kerosene
before they have been put into soap and
water, or it will do no good.
A seek of the best salt standing where
there is a smell of fish or any objectionable
odor, will absorb the flavor.
A dainty button bag is of orange silk,
lined with pale blue pongee. A casing is
run at the top, and silk cord is drawn in for
closing the bag. A small diamond shaped
piece of celluloid, notched at the edges, is
fastened at one side with tiny bows of rib-
bon, and on this is painted in gilt letters the
word " Buttons.»
" To ten yoa the truth, what I eat in my
corner, without compliments or ceremonies,
though it were nothing but bread and an
onien, relishes better than turkey at other
folks' table, whore I am forced to chew
leisurely, drink little, wipe my mouth often"
:lead can neither sneeze nor cough when I
have a mind." -Sancho Punza.

Agriculture of' Spain.
The plane of agriculture in Spain is low,
and far behind that of all Christendom. As-
a rule.athe domestic animals are poor, miser
able scrubs. Breeding is at the loweet stage.
The cows give but little milk, and from it
neither butter nor cheese is made. The
horses, mules, and asses have degenerated
lamentably. Ignorance and poverty are
twin -born in all the lower families of Spain.
The spirit of freedom has left the breast of
the once proud and noble Spaniard. The
agricultural people have no ambition, no
thrift, no hope of improvement for the fu-
ture. The gloom of melancholy hangs over
the spirit of the Spanish peasantry, and
poverty and ignorance stifle the breath of
hope. But for the general idleness, the
possibilities of Spanish agriculture would be
superlatively grand. With such a climate
and sat, a succession of fruits and flowers,
vegetables and grasses, the land would veri-
tably be "a land flowing with milk and
honey." The national trait is exhibited in
the care bestowed upon the breeding of
hulls for the plaza. The very worst quali-
ties are sought to be perpetuated -fierce-
ness. Every other consideration is banish-
ed. The dam that will not turn upon the ar
horseman is deemed unworthy to bear a bull th
for the arena. The attentador enters a cor- th
ral of half -wild cows, and, by tormenting ag
them with a, light goad, selects those cows w
that turn upon him and show fight, as the pr
only proper dams from which to breed. The
approved bull of great mettle and fierceness
is selected as the sire suitable to beget bulls
capable to destroy men and horses in the

from Spain the degrading bull fight, the
hope of improvement min never be realized.

Our Savings.
It is a fact that almost every man and
woman is " saving " of something to the
very verge of parsimony. Economy takes
queer freaks. Your generous, free-handed,
hospitable mother may be positively mean in
her saving of pins. Or your father may be
ready at any time to burn his fingers in an
attempt to use a match a second time,
instead of taking a whole one.
We once knew a man of wealth and posa
tion, who dressed well, kept a carriage, and
sent his sons te an expensive college, but
who invariably opened his letters with
great care in order that he might turn
the envelopes inside out and use them
again.
Since this trait is almost universal although
its manifestation is so various, every one
should endeavor to give it the right direc-
tion, both in himself and in any young peo-
ple under his eherge. For sometimes the
form which one's economy takes °awes net
only amusement to others, but a distinct loss
to himself._ .
For example, certain writers, in compet-
ing for large prizes for stories, prepare their
manuscripts in such a way that they save a
tent or two in the aggregate, but make
their story so unattractive in appearance
that an editor reading it can hardly do it
justice.
There is one form of economy which, in
apite of all that has been written about
-misery, is seldom carried to excess -economy
of money. Every boy and girl, no matter
how rich the parents may be, no matter how
hard the family must pinch in order to live,
should learn or should be taught to save a
part of his or her money income.
If it is only ten cents in a year, then save
that ten cents. Pat it away and accumu-
late a fund. If you are within reach of a
savings bank, have a deposit there, and add
to it. Thrift in money matters is a lesson
which every one must learn who hopes by-
and-by to have a fortune of his own.
Wait For the end of' the
Sentence.
The Rev. Dr. Hanson recently lectured,
his subject being, " Fools."
The Rev. Dr. Vincent, who is somewhat
of a wag, introduced him thus:
"We are now to have a lecture on fools
by one "-long pause and loud laughter -
"of the wisest men of the country,"
The lecturer advanced to the desk and
responded as follows:
"1 am not so big a fool as Dr. Vincent"
-long pause and loud laughter-" would
have you suppose."

-The wife of Joseph Hunter, living at
Hamilton, who three years ago retired from
his farm in King township, York county,
died on Thursday afternoon of last week,
after being treated for eight weeks by C. E.

-A farmer from near Gananoque is said
to have visited New York and secured a
legacy of $3,400. A picked -up friend got
him to have it boxed. When he reached
Watertown, New York, he found the case
to be stuffed with rags. Swindlers had car-
ried off the money.

--Three jewelry peddlers from the United
States have been fleecing farmers in the

cheaply -plated articles which can be pur-
chased in Detroit for $2.50.
-A boy 18 years of age, a passenger on
an immigrant train, was run over at Hawk
Lake, 25 mike east of Rat Portage last
Sunday afternoon. He jumped from the
train while it was in motion to rescue a
small child who was in dangerous proximity
to the cars, and in trying to regain the train
he slipped down on the rail and the wheels
passed ever the lower part of his body. He
died twenty rninutee after reaching Rat

-The Ontario Government commission to
study the dehorning question consiste of
Hon. Charles Drury, Crownbill, fernier,
Chairman; J. J. Kelso, Toronto, reporter,
Secretary; Richard Gibson,- Delaware,
breeder; D. M. McPherson, Lancaster,
dairyman; Andrew Smith, Toronto, veter-
inary surgeon, and Henry Glendinning,
Sutherland, farmer. Their duty is to make
inquiry into the reasons for and against the
practice of dehorning cattle, as well by the
experience of witnesses as by collecting
whatever is accessible of the evidence which
has been given by experts and others in
trials which have taken place on the sub-
ject in England; Ireland and Scotland and
in the Province, the judgments rendered,
etc., and to make a report with all reason-
able speed.
-A serions accident happened between 6
and 7 o'clock on Saturday, lath ult., near
East End stetion on the Grand Trunk Rail-
way,London. Robert Maxwell was employed
there, his duty being to attend to the ash
pans of the locomotives and reload the
tenders. The engine attached to the through
freight train from Point Edward to Toronto
came along, and he went down into the
dumping -hole to clean out the pan-. He
turned the water on as usual to scour the
place, and started to crawl out under the
locomotive. When half -way out he gave
the word, "All right," to the driver, and
the latter started the engine. Maxwell sud-
denly remembered he had forgotten to shut
the water off. He started back, but the
huge wheels had begun to move, and they
passed over poor Maxwell's limbs, cutting
off both bis feet above the ankles. He was
removed to the station and taken in the
ambulance to the hospital where he died
on Sunday. Maxwell was a Scotchman,
about 30 years of age, was a widower, and
has left three small children.
-Michael Mills of "flying roll" notor-
iety, seems to be turning out a fraud of the
worst description. He is a native of Elgin
county, at one time a schoolmaster, but
lately setting up some .new religion, of
which he himself is the prophet, priest and
king. Quite a number of deluded people
have followed him to some place near De-
troit, where he makes his headquarters. A
number of his followers became disgusted
and returned to their homes in Toronto and
other parts of Ontario. A despatch from
Detroit on Monday, 25th ult., says: The
stories coming down from the settlement of
the Michaelites are of such a nature as to at
least shock the sense of propriety. Neigh-
bors of the long-hairad disciples charge
openly that they have seen scenes of gross
immorality through the uncurtained win-
dows of the houses of the Michaelitee.

she was handcuffed, placed in a straight
jacket, and confined in e, closet for several
hours. She then promised to do as told,
and was released. A deserter left with his

Something Worth Reading.
If you will do your duty and tell the
truth you will not need any excuses as long
es you live.
You cannot teach a fool any sense, but
you oan cripple him mo that he will be prac-
tically harmless.
• There is nothing in the world that people
relish more than nonsense with a great deal
of sense in it.
False pride sometimes makes a very
good boy or girl ashamed of his or her
mother. Vanity is the most cowardly thing
on earth.
Whenever you are moved to inquire
whether a thing is right or wrong it is pretty
sure to be wrong. Even a brute knows
when it is doing right.
We need more charity, more human kind-
ness in the world. We need it in our
churches, in our society, in our homes. We
need it towards those who are bound closest
to us by the ties of this World, towards our
neighbor, towards our servant; towards the
street vagabond, who may° never have had a
kind word to remind him of a better way of
living. There are men and women about us
who have forgetten how to smile, if ' they
ever knew. Do you know what you might
do for these? It wouldn't cost much to be-
stow some little kindness. Some of them
will never ask it; they would expect 'a re-
fusal, perhaps a harsh refusal, and there is
too much human feeling left for them to be
indifferent to that.
-
Clumsy People.
I hate clumsy people. Yes -I won't
soften it down to please anybody. I hate
'em. What right have people to be clumsy?
To be all legs and arms? Never, to stir
without knocking over, or knocking up, or
knocking down something? What right
have they, whose touch is always certain
destruction and who know it, to be forever
fingering and pawing delicate ornaments and
pretty little fragile parlor fancies? Why
must they always select the only table in
the room that has flowers upon it, to kick
the water over upon your carpet? Why do
they invariably sit down on babies and bon-
nets in preference to sofas and chairs desti-
tute of such pleasing incumbrances? Why
do they stumble over your toes when they
rise, and drop everything in your lap when
they attempt to pass you? I can't tell why
a body is to endure all this. Why one
should polish and beautify and adorn that
such may recklessly mar ? Is this Great
Unspanked to be allowed to stumble through
creation doing all sorts of disagreeable
things under cover of -"tis his way ?"
Nonsense! Let him learn a better way or
stay away till he has.

Fortunes in Frogs.
"About twenty-five years ago," said an
old attendant in the big Washington market
to a Boston Globe reporter, "several men
made fortunes at catching frogs and eending
them to inarket. The hind legs were cut
off, skinned, washed and, after being mild-
ly salted, were sent away in barrels.
Prices use& to range from 50 to 75 cents for
a dozen pairs of legs, and as sales were
quick, there was a pile of money in the oc-
cupation.
"Otto old fellow, a blacksmith by the
name of Weld, down in Greenbush, Maine,
supplied all of New England for years. He
lived by the side of very extensive swamps
that were filled with wigglers and cattails.
The former furnished food for the frogs,
while the latter gave them shade. I have
seen bullfrogs legs that were nearly as big
as the legs of a chicken."
"Old man Weld used to hire boys to kill
the frogs for him, giving them 5 or 6 cents
a dozen. The frogs were so plenty that
many of the children earned good wages,
even at that small price. Weld dressed the
frogs, corned them and shipped them to
Boston in barrels like herrings. He kept up
the business for years, and, though he slew
hundreds of thousands every year, the sup-
ply did not diminish at all."
"By and by the prices went away down,
and as the old man had cleared about M0,-
000 out of the scheme he retired, built him-
self a fine mansion and lived at his ease.
He is the only man I know of who got rich
by catching frogs, but I have heard of seve-
ral others.
About Drink.
One thing I have seen in Scotland,"
says Mr. Moody, "that has shocked me.
It is people making light of young men get-
ting drunk. They don't hang 3,11 the mur-
derers nowadays. The man that drives a
dagger to the heart of another man is a
prince compared to the man that goes home
drunk and curses his mother, and takes five
years to kill her. Young man, do you go to
the public-houee and take a glass now and
again? I am no prophet, but I know what
sort of harvest you are going to have."
They Wanted the Floweret
Streamlet Preacher.
A certain young theologue went down
from Princeton to Philadelphia to preach
one of his seminary sermons. He was one
of those extremely flowery writers who
sometimes dazzle rhetorically the tenderaouls
of the younger members of the congregation,
and the elders of the church were be
mieged to have him down again. Thay at
length consented, but, alas! they had for-
gotten his name. So they wrote to one of
the seminary professors saying: "Pleaee
send Tie that floweret, streamlet, rivulet,
starlight man to preach for us next Sabbath.
We have forgotten his name, but we have no
doubt you will be able to recognize him."
He was recognised. He was sent. He be-
came pastor of the Church.
Virtue of a Flaxseed.
Putting the flaxseed under the lid of the
eye to get out a cinder which has accident-
ally lodged there may seem a curious method
of abolishing a nuisance, but is nevertheless
quite effective. After the seed has been
moistened by the secretions of the eye it
exudes a mucilage, which not only alleviates
the irritation of a foreign body, but also
frequently surrounds it and prevents pain
from the motion cf the eyeball against the
cinder and ultimately assists in its removal.
The remedy may seem novel to many per-
sons, but there are commercial travellers
who never start on a journey without a
pinch of flaxseed somewhere in their bag-
gage -where it can be easily reached in case
of an accidental cinder in the course of a
railway journey.
A Praying Wife.
A friend who has been spending the Bea-
son in Florida tells of a Cracker _preacher
who came to the little church in the pine
woods at Altamonte, the other Sunday, and
delivered a very feeling sermon. He was a
thoroughly earnest, sober, well-meaning
man, and did his best to impress his audi-
ence; but when in his sermon he delivered
himself as follows, his Northern hearers
were perhaps not impressed the way he
wished them to be: Now, there's my
wife; she's one of the best women that ever
lived, sho is; and e every day of her life,
when she gets her chores done up, she goes
inter the closet, shuts the door, and prays.

As is well known, this troublesome complaint
arises from over -eating, the use of to inuch rich

which has rar ly failed to give prompt relief and ef-
