When Mrs. Toilet entered the house she
found her husband in a wooden rocking
chair with a calico cushion, by the kitchen
window. He was a short, large -framed old
man, but he was very thin. There were
great hollows in his yellow cheeks.

" Then you don't want to hev one, with
some maple merlasses on it ? They've kept
hot ; she hed 'em kivered up."
She set them meekly on the pantry shelf ;
then she carae back and stood before her
husband, gentle deprecation in her soft old
face and in the whole poise of her little
slender body.
" What will you hev fur breakfast, Al-
ferd ?"
"I don't know. WeIl, you might as twell

has been the means of starting new factories all over Canada and the United States, nn
no doubt many of them will never, and others will take years, to make a first-class ma --

to push new wheels is very great, as the value is unknown to the public, and nice lookinec

looking wheels are not always high grade, and the incesaant rattle which is soon develop -

half lerhet it cost him in order to exchange it for a really first-class wheel; Avoid this

this basiness almoist since the trade commenced, purchasing for cash. We have had him
