• He Would Succeed.
There is an instructive anecdote of a Nova
Scotia lawyer told in the History of Annap-
olis county. A young man, anxious to be-
come a lamer, made application for a posi-
tion in the office of a barrister, whereupon
the following unconventional dialogue
ensued :
" Well, young man, and SO you'd like to
be lawyer ?"-
"Yes, sir ; I think I would like to be
one,"
"Where's your gun, my boy? 1 want
to see your gun, my young gentleman. Fond
of sporting, eh ?"
" I have no gun, sir ; don't know whether
I'd like gunning,"
"No gun Well, you keep a boat,then ?
Like boating ?"
"1 do pot own a boat, sir; do not know
how to use one."
"You wear a watch, or keep a dog ?"
" I:em too poor to wear a, watch, and I
have no dog.'
" You'll do, my lad, if you persevere in
the course you have begun. The law is a
jealous mistress, and cannot be won except
by undivided attention. Remember this,
my lad, and I will insure your success. You
may rely on any assistance I can render
you."
The young man entered the office,
time became a famous lawyer,

Household Uses of Salt.
Colored cotton fabrics , will not fade by
subsequent washing, if placed - in boiling
water to which has been added theft gills
of salt to every four quarts of water. Do
not remove the cloth until the water is
cold.
Windo ,v glass, 'ante marble and stone
vases or mantles are quickly cleaned if rub-
bed with salt slightly dampened.
A teaspoonful of salt in a coal oil lamp
makes it burn brighter and give a. clearer
light.
Fresh ink stains on carpets or tablecloths
can be removed by repeated applications of
dry salt. Carpets are refreshed and colors
brightened if wiped with clean cloths wrung
from salt water. Salt sprinkled occasion-
ally around the edge of the'carpet is a moth
destroyer. -
Ink spots are removed from gingham by
saturating them with sweet milk and then
covering them with salt. Salt and lemon
juice will remove mildew. Soak brooms
occasionally in hot salt water ; they will
become softer, less brittle and will wear
longer.
Heat salt ten minutes in a very hot oven.
Crush fine and run through a seive. Store
in a covered box in a dry place and it will
not cake. This is preferable to. mixing
cornstarch with it, which thickensdelicate
dressings and soups.
Bedroom doors may be- kept cool and
fresh by wiping them daily with strong salt-
water. Microbes, moths and other insect
pests are thus destroyed. Salt and camphor
in cold water is an excellent disinfectant in
bed rooms.

OBSERVATIONS.—While working in a field
lately we came across the bones of a large
bird. At first sight we felt certain that we
had struck a rare geological specimen and
were wondering how the fossil might be
restored and classified, 'hen on closer in-
spection astout word watefound firmly tied
around the leg bones, and then Ive knew
that the specimen was more " recent" than
we had expected and that the claesifieation
ran thus : Family, Phasiantictal ; sub-
family, Meleagrinae Genus ; Melsagris
species, Meleagris Garapevo, or in plaaner
terms the common turkey of the barnyard.
The thief should " restore " the biped.—It
is reported that President Kruger, of the
Transvaal, and who is credited with being
a very plain man, has recently purchased a
gorgeous carriage and equippage at a great
cost.' Why under the canopy of the autumn-

for broiling by throwing over it a handful
of silt. If salt is thrown on 'any_ burning
substance it checks the blaze, but if sprink-
led over coil makes it burn brighter, last
longer, and there are fewer Clinkers.
Salt thrown on coals when broiling steak
will prevent blazing from, the dripping fat.
When the contents of thelpot or pan boil
over or are spilled -throw on tall at once. It
will prevent a disagreeable odor, and a stove
or range may be more readily cleaned.
Feathers. and plumes straightened by
damp weather or exposure to rain may be
rejuvenated by shaking them over a shovel
of hot coals sprinkled with salt. Fire is
soon extinguished if sprinkled or sprayed
with the following solution: Ten pounds
of salt, five pounds of ammonia, and three
gallons of water. This should be tightly
corked and kept in stare where there is any •
special dangerfrom fire.
To clean black and burnt spiders or ket-
tlea, boil in them a little salt and vinegar,
then scour vigorously with se iron dish-
cloth. Copper and brass may be brightened
by vigorous rubbing with a lemon dipped in
salt. Frozen vegetables are less impaired
if placed at once in a salt water bath and
left in a warm place to thaw. If a tea-
spoonful of salt is added to a quart of milk,
• it will keep pure and sweet a much longer
time. If the cook at any time gets a dish
too sweet to suit the taste, a pinch of salt is
a carrective, and vice versa. .

M'Swat's Front Door.
" I tell you that I locked that front door
myself 1 I know I looked it ?" The voice
of Mr. M'Swat was firm, high-pitched -and
menacing.
" Yoa were the last to go to bed, weren't
you ?" demanded Mrs. M'Swat.
" I was."
"And.you locked the door, did you ?"
• "Once more I tell you I did."
"Sure of it, are you ?"
"How many more times have I got to tell
you that I looked that door the lest thing
before I started upstairs ?"
" VVell,I found it unlocked this morning.'
"1 can't help that, madam."
"1 have no doubt, Billiger," said Mrs,
M'Swat, with a praise worthy attempt to say
it soothingly, "that you think you locked
it, hut the fact remains—"
"The fact remains exactly as . it was be-
fore 1" he roared. "1 don't think anything
about it. I know it."
"Did you come down stalrs in the night
and uulock it ?"
"1 am not in the habit of walking in my
sleep."
"1 am not asking you about your habits.
Did you come down in the night and unlock
that front door ?"
"1 did not."
"Well, I was the first one who came
down this morning, and I found the door
unlocked. • How. did you explain that,
Billiger 1"
"1 don't explain it at all. See here,
Lobelia! are you trying to make me out a,
liar ?"
"1 am not trying to make you out any-
thing. All that I am trying to do is to get
at the facts."
"What difference does it make, I should
like to know ?"
"No difference, only I should like to find
out—"
"Do you find the house upside down?
Has anything been stolen ?"
"No, There isn't it sign that anybody
has been in the house. That's what makes
it so hard to understand."
•‘ Don't try to underetand it. Let, it go.",
"But—"" Has it occurred to you that perhaps
you didn't find that door unlocked when
you oe.me downstairs ?"
"Do you think I don't know when I find
a door unlocked? Be a. little careful how
you—"
" I---heoteeno doubt, Lobelia, you think
you found that door unlocked, but the fact
remains that just before I went upstairs
I--"
"The fact remains exactly as I said it
did. See here, Billinger ! are you trying to
make me out a liar ?'
"1 am not trying to make out anything.
I am only defending myself against an im-
plied charge of falsehood. When I lock a
door I know it. You have got into a
chronic way of contradicting everything I
say. When I tell you, • Lobelia, that it
thundered and lightned in the night, I pre-
sume you will try to find some excuse for
disputing it."
Last night ?".
"Do you mean to tell me it thundered
and lightened last night ?"
I certainly do."
" Well, I certainly do not believe that."
"You don't ?" snorted Mr. M'Swat,
"Will you please give me "—here he be-
came desperately ealm—" some sazie,decent,
respectable reason for not believing it?"
"Certainly, Billinger," responded Mrs.
M'Swat, with her accustomed sweetness.
"1 refuse to believe that it thundered and
lightned last night because I was awake
at the time--'
" Well ?"
"And I know it lightned and thundered."
Whereupon Billinger went up into the
garret and made loud, profane remarks to
the dust covered, moth eaten garments that
hung frotn the nails in the rafters, looking
wan and ghostlike in the grey, gloomy
twilight of the early morning.

COLONIZATION OF FARMERS' SONS.
(W'ritten for TIIE ExPOSIT0E.)
The question that puzzles the heads of our
farmers today is "what shall we do with
our boys? " In this, as in everyth'ne else,
the Almighty Dollar has a voice, a
cases out of ten the career of a .1

useiees, then, in the present iconge ted state
of this province, to rail agaire our young
peoele for leaving the farm drifting for
work to the cities of the United States, be.
cause it is cheaper, with a' tree education,
to turn our boys into mechrtnies, teachers,
clerks,lawyers or doctors,at any rate if they
start in the United States, where the pro-
feesions costless than they do here both hi
time and in money. Their stock in trade is
carried in their head and is paid for by the
State, but a farmer, be. his education ever
so good, cannot farm on air; • he must pay
hard cash out of his own pocket to purchase
a farm and his implements and stock.
°That's all very true, SDIII0 one will say,
but in this country, at least, the scades are
evenly divided; for the young Canadian,
who is willing to farm and is poor, can get
for the asking all the good hind that he.
wants in the n.orthern parts of the province.
But the fact is that our young men will not
be pioneers, and the reason is plain, if we

.5. It is
largely a question of detail in the construc-
tion of plans, but principally of management
afterwards ; and we shall need the help of
men who have had practical experience in
She work, for it is an easy thing to sit in an
arm chair and work out plans of colonies up-
on paper, but it is quite another matter to
make a success when you copy them off on
the face of the earth.
' We may expect) to meet some adverse
critioism when we ask the Governinent to
help us to find the money that is needed to
give' the settlers a start.
Some people will sey that it savors too
much of paternalism. To these gentlemen we
can point out that in Germany, Holland and
South Australia, the Government either ad-
vances money directly,. or guarantees the re-
payment of loans made to their own citi-
zens, to form agricultural settlements; and,
to come nearer home, we lend money our-
selves to Mennonites to settle upon our va-
cant lands. Why in the world, we may
ask, should we be more liberal to foreigners
than to our own ? •
• Others again, with greater force, will ob-
ject that the Governnient of Ontario cannot
afford to lose money in this way, and they
cannot collect from defaulters. Every cent
of the hundred thousand dollars ! that °was
loaned to the Mennonites was repaid to the
Dominion Government with intrrest in
thirteen years and, so far as we can ascer-
tain, no money has been hist by the Govern-
ments of Germany, Holland and Australia.
Why should we be afraid to risk public
money in Ontario? We ought to have every
prospect of Success, for we do not purpose
to deal with city failures,- or with foreign-
ers, who have been accustomed to different
conditions in the country from which they
carafe At the same time by settling our
boye in colonies they are more likely to be
successful and their lands will increase in
value with the growth of civilization tround
them. There is, we admit; some sense in
the objection that the Government will find
it difficult to put on the screws with bor-
rowers in default. Well! the dunningwill
have to be done by someone else, that's all 1
The Dominion Government took a bond
from the Mennonites in Ontario when they
made the loan to thyr copatriot settlers in
She Northwest, and he Ontario bondsmen
saw to the work of collection. This gives'
us it clue to work upon. We must find some
kind of cooperative association Which will
take the place and do the work of the Men-
nonite bondsmen. 'In another letter I will
submit the outline of a scheme whioh might
be adopted.

Domestic Hints.
If you value your umbrella and would not
like to buy another, see it drips with the
handle down.
Never wash baby's clothes with soda or
washing powder, as this is a source of irra,-
tation. and chafing to a -delicate skin.
- Excess in coffee -drinking shows its evil
effects in irritability of the nerves and loss of
temper, thus the intemperate use of. this
beverage is to be avoided.
• The rtomans used lemons to keep the de-
structive little moth from their garments,
while in the time of Pliny lemons were re-
garded as an excellent poison.
One of the simplest means of cleaning
• silver that has become blackened by gas or
time is to' mix a teaspoonful of ammonia
with a cup of water, and use a little of thie
liquid to form a paste with whiteing. Polish
the article with the paste, using a sett
chamois to apply it, and another th polish.
To dry autumn leaves hang them with
the cut stalks uppermost, and after two
days take them down and dip them in a
solution of size and water ; then hang them
up -again to get perfectly dry. Bramble
and beeoh leates make a beautiful winter
decoration for table and flower vases. All
grasses and rushes should be dried with the
heads downwards, as this sends the sap into
She leaves and flowers.
New flannel should always be washed be-
fore it is made up into garments. It can be
cut out more accurately after being washed,
and the grease that it centains is extraeted.
Wash it in clean warm soap -and -water, as
werm as the hand can bear, and entirely by
itself. Rub the soap to a lather in the
water, or the fla,nnel will become hard.
Wash it in this manner through two. warm
waters, and then rinse it in another warm
water,

to unsettled districts there is now no guar-

He may spend his whole life in isolation and
exile from the world. Besides, even though
he may get the land for nothing, still•the
teacher, the mechanic and the clerk have
the ste:rt on him, because he has not the
money to buy his implements and stock and
to pay for his living, until he can harvest
his crop.
It is clear, then that to colonize our va-
cant lands, twolth'ings are necessary; first,
well managed colonies, and secondly, some
system for lending money to settlers at it lotti
