Mr. Cobden, a, distin- guished writer in England, wrote thus about Welt and labor: - Luck is everything waiting for something to' turn up. Labor, with keen eye, and strong will, will turn something up. Luck lies in bed, aud. wishes the postman would bring him the news of a legacy. Labor turns out at 6 o'clock, and. with busy pen and ringing hanuner, lays the foundation of competence. Luck s hines. Labor histles. Ludic ses on chances.

A queer kind of bird. is the toucan. It seems to %aye been made expressly to take charge of its huge banana shaped beak, which, in some species is fully 7 inches in length and more than '2 inches in width— entirdly out of proportion to its compara- tively small body. This beak is the most brilliant possession of the toucan, being orange and -black, scarlet and yellow -- or green and red, according to the_ species of the 'bird. Its /Lome is in the wild South American woods, where, mingled with the screaming of parrots, macaws and other tropical birds, is heard its monotonous cry, " Thema, tucano I" from which its name is probably derived. It is a fruit eater, and climbing among the branches it gathers its food with itelong beak, whose strength no stem can 'resist. The toucan nests in trees, and it is un- certain whether it excavates its 'burrow or builds in it natural (levity. Nothing more comical can be imagined than the bead of this creature, with its sparklin,g eyes and enormous, gayly colored beak, appearing from a hollow in the trunk of some forest monarch. It is said that the young birds fort with the cold, icy and lowering tem- are subject to the attacks of monkeys and perature of this region, yet the Northern - , Inlets ot prey, and that when the parent bird is alarmed all she has to do is to poke her.head out of. the aperture leading to the nest. The assailant, seeing so huge a bill, fancies an animal of correspondiog size be- hind it and. leaves, without _bowing or say- iner farewell. 'Toucans alre sociable birds and go in longe . flocks. They make common cause againsttheir enemies, such a,: owls and falcons, which they surround and mob, as the rooks do in England. Having thus no need for protection, they are noisy and clamorous, like parrots and monkeys. The plumage is generally black, but the throat is white, tinged. With 'yellow and commonly egged beneath with red. The tail is nearly square or moderately rounded, with the upper feathers red and the lower scarlet. Alternations of the brighter colors are displayed in the feathers of the throat, the breast and the tail. • The bird is kept easily in oonfinement, and no doubt from early time Many were brought alive to Europe. Some of its brils liant tints are very fleeting, and they often leave little or no trace after -death, so that little idea of its beauty can be obtained from a stuffed specimen.—Philadelphia Times. :native considers both ice and snow as min- istering to his comfort, as his long experi- -ence has taught him the best method of %sing them notwithstanding the bitter • .cold. To those people so many feet of snow are looked upon as so many blankets; ice of a ,certain thickness is counted as so much hard or soft coal—in fact, they almost al- ways impart the idea of comfort. to these -easily satisfied beings. I have been with an Eskimo when he thrust his unbarbed seal- -spear into a bank of snow to diseover its -condition for building purposes: Coming to some drift of unusual excellence',as revealed "by his testing stick, he greeted the discovery with the exclamation, "Warm! very -warm !" as he turned to me with a broad :grin. Now, there are very few people, indeed, -who could possibly see anything warm in an Eskimo bundled up in furs in a temperate -ire -of fifty below zero standing by a snow - bank snow- ank and poking it with a long robd. But this shrewd fellow plainly saw that the big ibank, well packed by the .A retie gales, ovould make him an unusually fine igloo. With the aid of his little stone lamp, some seal or walrus oil burning in it, such a hut woulcl insure him a dwelling where he could .defy the strongest gales, and where his family could be quite comfortable, even though a white man might pronounce it a 'little chilly. This temperature, while perfectly com- fortable to the Northern nomad, is to an un - .acclimated white person quite disagreeable. While the Eskimo clinging to the coast line ,of the Arctic sea, or their white companions living with them, as did my party, are buried under the snow for six months of the Jean it must not be inferred that they hibernate, like many burrowing animals in the cold regions. On the contrary, they pass the greater portion of their time Out of doors, huntine, fishing and travelling, car. -ill" less for the intense cold than for the stormy weather, -which is to them the only simpleasant feature of their long winters. It is the constant exposure to such intense .cold as the Arctic winters, produce that nnakes the inside of their little steno houses ,seem very comfortable by compatison ; al - :though at no times is it above the frhezing- point within. When an Eskiino has been -journeying all day in a temperature of forty, 'fifty or sixty degrees below zero, to crawl -at night time into an igloo where it is but a .degree or two below freezing, seems to them quite as warm and comfortable as it would to us to enter a house where the tempera - bum was seveny above. I do not suppose that, except in rare in- stances, such things do occur." ' She put -both hands to her brow this time, smiled.tt bit and abruptly changed the conversation. Half an hour later the young man paused on his way to his room and hunted up a dictionary. He ' turned nervoualy to the O's, found O's and ran his finger down the column until he came to " ossify." Then he threw his hands into the air and shriek- ed, " Great.Scott, and I didn't know that ossify means to turn to bone I" .And he hasn't called on Miss Sifter—Buffett) Express. - Invention of Postage Stamps. The invention of postage stamps is said to be due to a printer of Dundee Scotland. England, 52 years ago introduced the sys- tem.of Prepaying letter postage, and, ac- cording to a decree of December 21st, 1839, issued the first stamps which were to be put before the public on May 6th, of the following year. A:year later they were in- troduced in the United States and Switzer- land, and within three years had become common in Bavaria, Belgium' and France. One of the mose important a-nd valuable collections - of .postage stamps and other Brown lostal devices i,i the world is in the German mperial pOst office at Berlin. It takes 80 men and -women to make a postage stamp. First the white paper is eut into sheets, each large enough for a hundred stamps. The stamps on each sheet axe counted twenty-six times to make sure the number is correct. The printer counts and passes the sheet to the gummer, the gummer gums the back, and being counted, gives it to the nerforater, who divides the etamps by rows of little holes, not forget - :Ong to count. It is surprising how quickly and aceurately the . hands work. Seven hundred millions of postage stamps are Made every year in the -United States. New York city uses 8,000,000 a month.— American Stationer. As men, wonien and children all wear -double suits of reindeer clothing while out of doors, on entering a house, the first thing is to discard the outside suit, for they com- plain they are much too warm when dressed in this fashion indoors. In. a temperature -which a white person would find so uncom- fortably cold that his fingers would refuse to da,any task which would require pliabil- ity in them, these people execute the anost delicate work that their simple life ever de- mands, or with which they while away • the °long winter evenings. The women sit and sew reindeer clothing, stripping the sinew 'thread. The men carve walrus ivory into useful and ornamental objects, or perform other tasks which require the fingers to be -supple and active, arid this almost always in sa low a temperature that a white person -would be sure his hands had only thumbs. When the Jong six months of semi night comes, the inland summer house of sealskin 'is exchanged for one of ice and snow, and - then the real social life of the native begins. When in their tents they are always scat- tered over the inland. country hunting rein- -deer and musk -oxen for their meat and robes. But as soon as all tbe land is cov- ered with ice and snow, they flock to the :shores of the sea, build. their igloos, hunt :seal awl walrus, and really settle down for cheerful living. They are by nature a really sociable people, and *inter to them., -.in spite of its bitter blasts, is really the :most enjoyable half of the year. With a :small stone lamp which produces enough heat to raise the temperature from what - «ever -bitter extreme may be out side to near freezing -point, the little white domedhomes are as comfortable as they ever desire. The light from the lamp is truly excellent, for the flame of the lamp is large, and the snow wails reflect back the mellow rays, giving a .soft but intense light. After a few weeks, however, the walls become tarnished, and this is los-t; but the more energetic Eskimo -seldom lives long in the same ingloo, though • for a wholly different reason than lack of . light or grimness of interior. During the day the warmth of a lamp or two will often raise the temperature above freezing, especially near the dome, bat as the snow of which the house is built is like 'sponge, it will absorb the water, if not too great in quantity; in the latter case, it be- • gins dropping from the top, when the lamps . are extinguished, until the temperature is again low enough to prevent this. After a •number of such freezings the roof becomes converted: into ice, which -conducts the cold to the ingloo's interior as if it Was a roof of thin iron. This makes the house chilly in .the extreme. When this is the case, the !Eskimo will either build a. new home or. Out =off the dome of his old one and replace it Nwith new snow blocks.

Form into little cakes, and brewn in butter or suet. Cabbage Salad—Cabbage is served in a variety of salads. It may beeombined with ehicken, meet, or almost any vegetable. Chopped raw cabbage -With a Dcream, French, or mayonnaise dresSing, forms as appetizing a relish as one conlil wish. Paste Shortcake—Chop one large cupful of butter into three cupfuls of flour' sifted with three teaspoonfuls baking powder, and add milk (about a cupful) to make a soft paste. -Bake in three rounds on layer pans. Butter while hot. Put the berries in sugar three hours before using, axul drain off the juice in a pitcher for the table. Put the berries between the layers immediately be- fore dinner. This is delicious made with raspberries or cherries. Apple -Float—Core three knee apples, bake them, remove the skin and • add one cupful of powdered, sugar and the' white of one egg. Beat all together very light. The longer it is beaten the lighter and whiter it will be. Take one-half pint of milk, the yoke of one egg, one teaspoonful of corn- starch, a very little salt and one spoonful of sugar. Put into a doulile boiler and stir until it thickens. Flavor according to taste. Place in a glass dish until cold,' and float the apple upon it. Apple Jelly—Apple jelly is fine, if made from. high -flavored, acid, white fleshed vari- eties, like the orange pippin or bellflower, boiling the skins and seeds, tied in cheese- cloth, with the juice,- which heightens the flavor. For the finest jelly, press two quarts of cider and putit to simmer pare five pounds of apples, slice and. boil in the eider over a brisk fire till the fruit is.melted down; strain and boil again with ten ounces of sugar to the pound of juice. This may be flavored with lemon or . orange peel, or ,quinces may be cut up and cooked with the apples for the sake of the peculiar quince *flavor.

They were sitting in the parlor Of a west side house, and the conversation was drag- ging somewhat. They had. exhausted all the available social topics, had taken a dip into literature by criticising some of the latest novels, had. discussed the summer re- sorts -and the prospects for a good fall sea- son, talked a bitabout the theaters, awl there did not seem to be much left. After an einbarrassing -pause of five minutes the girl said : " We have got the funniest cook. She says the most killing things." "Yes?" put in the young man interest- edly. " Yes, she is a crank about sickness. Every day she has sotne new sickness. As a matter. of fat, she is a great buxom wo- man, strong and healthy as can be, but- she imagines she has one foot in the grave." "Must keep her busy finding symptoms," said the young man, "Indeed it does, and some of hex com- plaints are very laughable. Why, the other day she came in and told me in perfect seri- ousness that her bones were ossifying. The young man looked puzzled. He laughed a little, though, and said: "What a remarkable complaint ! I don't suppose it was true, do you ?" The young wornan's face took on a pained ex -pression. "1 said she said her bones were ossifying," she re- marked.

He is well known, not only to the medical profeasion in Mon- treal, -but throughout the entire provilace, as a care- ful and reputable physician, and his testimony to the worth of Dodn's Kidney Pills is accepted by physicians generally as a guarantee of the efficacy of the remedy.

A Philanthropist's Advice. The late George W. Childs, the great Philadelphia publisher and philanthropist, was never known, as a fanatic on the tem- perance question, and avie do not remember to have ever heard of him as a Prohibition- ist at all. He was, hovieVer, a clear-headed and far-veing man of business, and, there- fore, in writing hit friendly advice to young men regarding success in life he faithfully warned them against the drinking habit. "1 cannot lay too great 'a stress on the matter of strict temperance. Drinking beer, wine or spirits is a useless and danger- ous habit. It does no good, and. if the is continued it is almost sure to lead to de- struction and death. Taste not, touch not, handle not. _ You shoulki have the courage to say' " no," if you are asked to drink. In looking back over my life I can recall many of the best and. most promising companions Who were ruined by the habit of drinking— not one of 'whom ever imagined that he would be wrecked in mind and. body, and eventually fill a drunkard's grave. There is no safety in moderate drinking ; overyone who touches it at all is in danger. • Oddities. —The latest thing in house decorations is a little slate with gilt - frame and. flowers painted upon it hung up in the hall by a bright ribbon.

When he was tour months old I tried Milburn's Cod Liver 011 Emulsion, and after using one and a half bottles my baby is entirely cured. No other _remedy but the Emulsion was used, and baby is now strong and healthy. Mex. J. G. THOMPSON, Callender, Ont. A BOON TO HOESEMEN.—One bottle of English Spavin Liniment completely- removed a curb from my horse. I take pleasure in recommending the remedy, as it acts with mysterious promptness, in the removal from horses of hard, soft or calloused lumps, blood spavin, splints, curbs, sweeney, stifles and sprains.
