Some of the French railway companies employ women, not only as clerks, but in the signal box: The goldfields in Paulding county, Ga. are being developed and have prohed quite productive. ' The latest suggestion made in the col- umns of a London paper is that married men should wear wedding rings. A fortnight before the czar was expected in Paris 66 songs in honor of the event were peddled on the boulevards. Russia is trying to increase the speed of her railroads. The journey from St. Petersburg to Moscow was recently made at the rate of 46 miles an hour. Moorgate station, on the London Marcie politan railroad line'has just been com- pletely rebuilt without disturbing the traffic, though 1,200 trains pass through it,.and the work lasted a year. Only IS few yards of the Blackwall tunnel under the Thames remain to be bored, and this will be done in a few day's. The work was begun in March, 1892, and has been one of the most rapid and suc- cessful pieces of engineering ever under- taken. It is lipped that the tunnel will be open for traffic within 12 months. SALT FOR A DAY. Some people live on the installment plan. Make the little sense you have common eense. Half of your worry to -day i due to your neglect yesterday. If yon insist upon havingi your rights you will never be popular. How tantalizing Heaven will be to the women, to See so much gold lying around and no chance to spend it! That which is called the' sacred,fiame of love originates in many cases in laziness and an agreeable place to loaf. As long as a man earns money his children do not think that he needs & guardian, but when he begins to !mead tnaciney he has earned, that's different. —Atchison Globe. BRIGHT THOUGHTS. , While silent, consider your own faults; when speaking, spare those of others. = He who can take adviceis often superi- or to him who gives it. _• Keep company withr-the good and ,you will be one of them.- .. Despair makes victims—sometimes 'vic- tors. A loafer is never satisfied with this wages. A drunkard's throat has no bottom to it.ste A man goes to bed tired who spends the day looking for an easy place.. One day is worth two to -morrows. Open your month' and purse contirna. ousl y. SIMPLE SALVE. Bail rusty nails and drink the soup for dumb ague. Pure soft soap and ammonia applied to a lame back and rubbed in vigorously is almost certain to give reklief. Potatoes should not be eaten by those who are disposed to get very stout; aud those who suffer from derangement of the liver should give them up entirely. If a child has sore eye's, wring a sponge out of warm water containing a pinch of salt and trickle a stream on the inflamed lids, letting the water run toward the nose. As there is danger of contagion the drying towei Should not be used by others. SYMBOLS IN FLOWERS. Mint' is symbolic of virtue. The peach blossom indicates submits- sion. • The bell flower is symbolic of gratis tude. The American cowslip indicates devos don., The horse chestnut is indicative of luxury.

The famous battle of Culloden' was fought on Drummossie moor, four miles northeast of Inverness. The battle of Saratoga was fought, not immediately in the town, but on the heights surrounding it. The battle of Cerro Gordo took its name from a mountain pass of Mexico, forty miles northwest of Vera Cruz. Braddock was defeated, not at Pitts- burg, as is generally supposed, but at a point on the Monongahela River ten miles from the city.

The price of genuine chinchilla skins is exceedingly high, so high, that only single skins are to be had' at all. A fine imita- tion has appeared. The novelty of the season is the combin- ation of chamois leather, in all colors and even embroidered, with long-haired furs. Wonderfully effective designs are shown. A general view of the fur trade this fail shows an increasing love of eombinations and great variety of toxin. Furs welcome bined with each other, with feathers, ribbon and lace, and some of the ziaore recent effects are in gold or soutache embroideries. Bison seal has male a place for itself in public opinion and is no longer regarded as in imitation; indeed, it has been imi- tated in a sort of rabbit fur.

In a terrible storm, a Lake Superior steamer was stranded on a rocky reef. Shrieks of alarm and groans of despair were heard above the roar of wind and wave. One man was calm. Captain Moor moved among the frightened . passengers, risking his life to prevent a panic, and to save those thrown down by the combing billows. While he stood looking to aee that every one grasped the line, a huge wave knocked down the cabin and washed the ruins over on the captain, crushing him to the deck. "1 am lost !" he cried. " Goodsby—hold on to the line !" Another wave washed away the debris and released the captain, but his injuries chained him to the deck. All that day, while the storm raged and the waves washed over the steamenthe captain spoke cheering words to the deepahing souls. 'As darkness gathered over the tossing waters, he said, Friends, let us pray 1" He led them in prayer. Throughout that night of agony his voice was heard, putting -heart iinto those near him and imploring help from God. At daylight on the second'morning relief came, and the survivors, after fortyseight hours of gazing into the face of death, were rescued. ° They received one impression which stamped itself upon them even more deeply than the memories of their sufferings and fears. It was made by the grand cOarage and sublime faith of the captain. "But for -him," said a passenger, "we should have all lost hope, and in our despair died. We saw him prostrate on the [deck, wounded andi unable to rise, yet speaking words of good cheer, and praying God to save us. We blessed him, and kept up a good heart." ••••• 11911111INIMINDIRMO DOAN'S Kidney Pills 111671111111111111MOMMil DOAN'S Kidney Pills RememWerne OAN'S Kidney Pills ARE THE BEST For sale by 1. V.

It is oomposed of any desired number of galvanized steel wires, pieced at a suitable distance apart, upon which are placed two haat-inch hall round steel bars, one on each side of the wires, with groove between to fit tightly on the wires, and belted with four bolts holding them firmly together snd_preventing the wires from slid - Ing up or down. It is also arranged that the actions of heat and cold in expanding and contraeting the wires are thoroughly controlled by tighteners, and the fence can be kept taut at all seasons of the year. All we ask is an examination -of ite merits, and we re satisfied you will decide it har no equal. ILatua mewed by • EDWARD, LITT & CO., Dublin P. 0.; Ont. R. B.
