An American woman in1Pari-z, a couple of years ago, when the fashion of trimming bonnets with dead birds was at its height, saw in it a chance of making money enough to pay her expenses in the gay capital for another season. - She made a contract to supply a Parisian millinery firm with twenty thousand bird - skins at forty cents apiece. Returning home She went to a large island on the Vir- ginia coast, which had. always been fam- ous breeding -ground for gulls and j other birds, and offered to pay ten cents fo eaeh skin. The sante offer .was published along the southern coast. The gunners w nt to work. Every kind of bird was slaughtered from the heron to the humming -bird. The murder was wholesale. As a result thous- ands of women decorated their hats with the dead bodies that winter, t and the shrewd t American -w-omen, with her profit ove ex- penses of four or five thousand dollars, pent probably a gay scatuin in Paris, untroUbled by remorse. But the mother birds being shot count- less, fledglings diced • of starvation in the •-nests. On the island, which. for bundrecla of years had, been full of innouent, happy life, there is new !scarcely the chirp of a bird to be heard. I This is but one Chapter of the story of the `wide spread destruction of birds to satisfy the vanity of women. , In a single season it is said that five mil- lions of dead birds were used by the • mil- liner*. of our seaboard cities. Over forty- two thousand of these came frorri Cape Cod &Ione. In one auction store in London during a .single season, over half a millioq bird'skins- from the West Indies and Brazil' weresold. Since the vigorous protest by the best class of Americans against this reckless de- struction of the most beautiful and harm- less of God's creatures, it has greatly dimin- ished. The most giddy school girl questions now whether good taste or good feeling will alic,w her to carry on her head a dead car - Jim, which suggests a desolated home full of :starved nestlings. If every girI and woman wOuld resolve never- to wear such a, ghastly d coration they would sae for the -world myriads of innocent lives, and in manycas 8 useful lives to husbax.ulmen. . -Conti anion. . 6 i HEALTHY DIGESTI N. -7-- A retioN AND A MESSING TO ei.A.

Judging by r&' sults Dr. Williams' Pink Pills is a retnedy nnique in its success, therefore It is boa- dently recommended as.' a safe and adequate cure for acute dyapepsia. This- claire is substantiated by exp rience a the follow- ing facts will show,. , • . Mrs. a MoCrimmon, of Williamstown, Glengarry County, suffered u told misery from a severe attack Of dys epaia, which manifested itself in those ma y unpleasant, ways for whigh dyspepsia is notoripiiii Every attempt to take food was a -menace to every feeling of comfort, until the stomach was relieved of its burden of vom- iting. When not suffering from the pres- ence of food in the stomach, there _were other symptoms more or less disagreeable consequent to the functional disturbance of the stomaeh, such as impairedtaste and ales petite, 'unwonted languor, increasing apathy i and failing ambition. Such an aggregation of the symptoms produced a trying state of affairs, and relief was eagerly sought.' One of the best physicians of the neighborhoo was consultedr He prescribed. His medi eine was taken and his directions followed but unfortunately. three months of - th treatment brought no substantial relief When Mrs. McCrinernon expressed her in tention of trying De.. `Williams' Pink Pills the doctor laughed and h ld the thought in 1 derision. However, Mrs McCrinamon de- cided she could note -Hord to. leave untried such a well recommend d .remedy as Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. Ha'nce' she took the course of this medicine, which after a fair trial was eminently successful. From being only a;ble to take. stale bread and milk or soda biscuits, she became able -to- take a hearty meal of any variety, without the painful effects that once asserted themselves after. every , meal. It- onlyremains to be said: that Mrs. McCrimmon mproval in fiesh and. general comfort fi in the first taking of the pills, and almost nything go- ing she could eat with impunit . Dyspep- sia became a thing less dreaded, and largely belongiug to the peat. It is li tle wonder therefore that she urges the useof Dr. Wil- liams' Pink Pills upon others similarly, afflicted. , Is Dr.Williarns' Pink Pills create new blood, build up the nerves, and thus drive disease from the system: In liundreds. of cases they have cured after all other •medicines • had failed, thus establishing the claim that they are a marvel among the triumphs of mbdern medical scieuce.

"Probably as queer a piec of backwoods .surgery as has been describe " says a yfre- quenter of the region. " Wee hat performed by a Moosehead lake guide known as old Sapattus 20 years ago. The , man was not an Indian, as the nicknafne implies-, but a Yankee, one of those rough felloWs_ form- erly characteristic of that' locality. , This guide evaaleft on a lake steamboat at one of the far up landings, while the engineer went ashore with the company. A man named Meservey came aboard and in foolin aroundthe boat managed to tumble down into the fire pit and put his shoulder out of joint.• - " Here was a dilemma. . The other mem- bers of the party would not be back for half an hour, and the injured man was in great pain. The guide was a man of expedients. lie got a rope and tied his patient securely ton post. Then he tied another one around the man's wrist and bitched the loose end • of it to a pulley of the engine. He man- aged somehow to turn on steam, and the pulley began to windup the rope. It drew the arm out tight in beautiful shape and presently the joint' snappe back into its Irp soeket. Then Sabattus jut tped around to shut off steam while the ulley kept' on winding. 'Holy Moses,' gasped the guide exeitedly, 'how does it go? . I don't know where it is. I can't stop the blanked thing.' And the pulley meanwhile was slowly but surely pulling Meservey to pieces. His eyes' were sticking out of -their sockets, and he screamed and gasped for breath. • - " Sabattus danced around like a wild man,. not knowing what to do, -when h.e happened to spy a hatchet lying near, and, jumping for that, he cut the rope and saved a dreadful catastrophe.- This was done just as the party of city folks who had gone ashore came rushing ba.elt. on the boat alarmed at Meservey's screams. It was some years afterward," says the narrator, " that 1 was present whewe lot of summer company- arrived at Greenville. - Sabattits was there, too,, and presently a distinguish- ed looking ,man, and one of the new -comers, went up to him and said with a meaning smile, 'Are not you the manthat practises' surgery by steam?' and Sa,battus had to admit that he was 'that sa,me feller.'

Dr. Pentecost, of Marylebotie Chapel, Londoll the other night spoke of a revival gatheri g at which there was one man who ,refused to be converted It waS determined therefore to pray for him. Several gentl men present-includingDr. Pentecost hin- self and' Lord Overtmm-tried what the could d in that way, but apparently with- oat'succ ss. Then they asked a Highland • parson iamed Ross to put in a word. The reveren gentleman rose and at once com- menced to pour out a torrent of sounds • which no man understood. It resembled an amalgamation of a tornado, a whirlwind, a hail storm, a conflagration, a roar of waterS, and the breaking of the ocean against a rock-bound coast. When the prayer was 'ended, Mr. Ross was asked what language he had been using. "Gaelic," he answered. "But," it was urged, why pray in it language which no one understood ?", Ah," cried the Highland enthusiast, "it. was • serions case, requiring special measures, an none but the Gaelic language would be e fectual above, I I.was not praying to yo you know." • • -For that tickling sensation in the throat try a 10 cent box of " Mist " Cough Lozenges, They will allay the irritation at once.

In 1892 the exportations from Africa and India to Europe. were nearly 400,0Q0;000 pounds, the city of Marseilles alone ;taking 222,000,000 pounds, most 'of which was converted into olive (?) oil, and shipped as such to the United States and Other countries.

Mr. L., a good-natured German, was the proprietor of a clothing business in a° country town. He had in his employ one John 8,, who he had advanced from cash. boy to head clerk. Since his promotion, ,John had -several times asked for a raise in his salary, and each time his request had been granted. One morning John appeared at the old mer- chant's desk with another request for in in- crease of ten dollars a month. ' "Vy, Shon," said Mr. L, "I dink I pays you pooty yell alretty ; vat for I pays you any more ?" "Well," replied ohni, confidently, 'I am your principal h p here. I know every detail of the busin ss, and, indeed, I think you could not get long without me." "Is that so?" exclaime the German. "Doonder. Shon, vot voud I d suppose you vas to die?" "Well," hesitate John, "I suppose you would have to get long w thout me then." The "old man" took several whiffs from his big pipe and said nothing. At last he re- marked: "Veil, Shon' I guess you had better consider yourselfdead." • CEYLON • -Considerable lout.t interest has been created by the rather gruesome discovery- of a human skeleton amongst the remains of a barn belonging to William Crowe, conces- sion 3, Wallace, burnt in the early morning of September 30th.
