AYI3RS!?a .pSarsa- arilla A MEDICINE WITHOUT ANE12 statement of a Well Known Doctor "Ayer's Sarsaparilla is without an equal as a blood -purifier and Spring medicine, and cannot have praise enough. I have watched Its effects in chronic cases, where other treatment was of no avail, and have been astonished at the results. No other blood medicine that I have over used, and I have tried them all, is so thorough in its action, and effects so many permanent cures as Ayer's Sarsaparilla."—Dr. IL F. MERRILL, Augusta, Me.

Some ofthe re- presentatives of royal authority have been more eloquent. Some have been freer with their flattery, but Lord Ab- erdeen ranks with, if he does notexcel the best of his predecessors in the ut- terance of sincere and good-hearted common sense. Lord Aberdeen's speech at the opening of the territorial fair in Regina was a model in its way. He aided the farmers with the sympa thy:of his own agricultural experience, and cheered them with humour, of which the following is a good example. "A man who was a believer in some fertilizing nostrums, said to his over- seer, 'The time is coming, John, when I may-carrytyn. one of my pockets what will fertilize a whole acre of land.' 'Aye, aye,' was the reply, 'and I am thinking that when your time comes, ye'll be able to carry the crops in the other pocket." HANDS AND ANKLES RAW. For years I have been a great sufferer from ichy skin trouble and salt rhuem. My hands and ankles were literary raw. The first application of Dr Chase's Oint- ment allayed the burning, itching sensetiga. One box and a half entirely cured me. It is also instant relief for chilblains. Henry A. Parmentar, St. Catharines, Ont, During the thunderstorm on Saturday John Johnson, con. 9, of Malahide, was killed by lightning while hanging a bridle up in the barn. At Listowell, the barn on the farm of D. L. Campbell was struck by lightning and totally destroyed, also this season's crop of hay and fall wheat. The barns of Thomas Gales, a farmer living about three miles west of Blenhiem, were struck by lightning and completely destroy- ed together with the whole season's crop. Near Paisley lightning struck the barn owned by Mr H. J. Smith and rented by Mr E. A. McArtney The building was completely destroyea but part of the con- tents were saved. Mr William Giles and his hired man were drawing in peas, when lightning struck the loan, killing one of the horses and stunning both men. Two barns both full of farm pr3dn es, situated on 1, t 29, con. 1, township of McGillivray, owned by Mr T. Duncan, were struck by lightning and burned, together with contents. At Uxbridge two barns were destroyed I.v lightning. The spire of Knox Church Stratford, was struck by lightning at a length of 200 feet from the ground, setting it on fire. The fire brigade, by passing a line of hose up inside the spire, subdued the flames after half an hour's hard work. GIVES FRESH- NE�a ANI firCLEAR I„ - '-era SKIN.

It'll pay you to Como to Chatham For catalogue address, D. McLACEILA'S, Chatham GETTING A DEAD MAN OUT OF A HOTIaL. "I was stopping at the United States otel in New York several years ago," said -Wm. I. Montague, "and while there, formed a very pleasant acquain- tance with the chief clerk. We were chatting one afternoon when the bell- boy came to him and stated that the man in No. 36 was dead. He had been ailing for some time, and had probably died of what doctors now call heart - failure. The hotel was full of guests. and how to remove the man without arousing their suspicions was a puzh- ling question. The deceased had a sis- ter living on Thirty-first street, and it was decided to carry the body to her home. A hack was called, and two of the stoutest porters were called upon to dress the body in everyday costume, and with one on each side walked him downstairs as if he was in a maudlin state of intoxication. Everything worked to perfection, and in a half hour the dead man had been seated in the hack and driven away, none of the guests being the wiser for what had happened." No appetite?

It was by the purest accident that the simple process of tinting white paper was discovered. It was the, re- sult of sheer carelessness in a woman. The wife of an English paper maker named William East, accidentally dropped the "blue bag," a small hag fall of blueing with which she was about to blue her washing, into a vat of pulp, where it lay long enough to give the entire mass a bluish tinge be- fore, to her consternation, she recover- ed it. So terrified was she at the re- sult of her gross carelessness and its disastrous result that she dare not me- sion the fact to her husband, whose dismay at what he considered discol- oration and destruction of the entire mass was his worry for months. He considered his paper spoiled and an entire loss, but suffered it to re- main in an out of the way place as un- salable stock for four years, when in order to get it out of the way and to make room for better stock, he sent it to his agent in London asking him to get rid of it at any price. 10 the pa- per maker's utter surprise, in a short time he received from his agent an or- der for a great quantity of bluish pa- per and found upon inquiry concern- ing the sanity of the agent, that the bluish paper being a novelty had taken wonderfully with the public. But he was in a dilemma, for he had no idea as to how to give the bluish tinge to the paper ordered by his agent, and wearily tried without result for many days and nights. Mentioning his trouble to his wife one day she admitted her carelessness and told of the way in which the pulp happened to become spoiled by the barof blueing. The paper maker was overjoyed at the revelation; found' it an easy task to give the ,tinge to his white paper and until the time of his death, which occurred many years after, he was unable to supply the great demand for blue paper, so ac- ceptable and relieving to the eye of the writer. THE BOOK OF THE FAIR. Part XV is the last number we have received, but it is fully equal to the former numbers, and as one turns over its beautiful pages and views the excellent illustrations, we can almost imagine we are treading the courts of the Fair again in reality. That the intelligentand progressive people of the nineteenth century fully appreciate a genuinely good thing in literature is proved by the reception of the Bork of the Fair. Its reception is not confined to America and Europe either, for in Australia, in India, in China, Japan and the shores of Africa it is being welcomed in thou- sands of homes. The text covers every conceivable detail from start to finish and the illustrations are a picture gal- lery in themselves. It isa grand work. worthy' the enterprise of the well- known publishing house, THE BAN - CROFT COMPANY, Auditoruin Building, Chicago, Ill. MOLTEN METAL AS CARGO. The Cleveland Leader says: "Great pots of molten metal go dailly skimming along the Erie Railroad from the Cleve- land Rolling Mills Company's central blast furnace to the Newbar4mills, as sedately as if this traffic were of long standing. The plan, put into operation last Monday, ie a perfect success. It takes just fifteen minutes for the metal after it is poured in- to the big ladle cars, to reach the mixer in the mills, some five miles away. Eight trips are made a day as follows : at 6.20, 8,20 and 11 20 o clock in the morning, at 2.10 and 4.10 o'olock in the afternoon, and three trains at night. These trips are practically cleared. Thus delays are a+oid- ed, which would be expensive, for if long continued, the purposes of a special deli. err would thus be defeoted. At the rolline mills the car is raised on a hoi.t to tl e mixer. Relieved of their load tire ca s ample back to the furnace at their leisure, in time for the next trip. About five hun- dred tone of bot metal is thu+ carried every day over this long railroad route. In the September number of the De- lineator, which is called the r ul urn'r announcement number, the dirplay „f fashions forthe coulingseason is except- ionally large, and the Style- are hroul- some enough to suit the most exact ing taste. The i-sne is also not aide for the variety and quality of its reading met - ter. Mrs. Taylor's articles raft SetI (`ode continue, and this month the I) hutante is considered in a most inter - eating way; Amy Rayson, a farnon- groduate of Girton College, writ( a of girl's life there and and at Nt'wnhame the two best known English colleges for women; Edith M. Thomas, in con• nect.ion with Dr. S. R. Elliott, talks of woman as a writer, and Mary Wool- man practically treats of pinto needle- work as an employn.ent. Mrs Sara Miller, Kirby, continues her valuable series on kindergarten work, and Har- riet Keith Forbes gives further' in- structions in burnt decoration.

Children ©rylfor Pitcher's Ca to rtie • A special to the St. Paul Globe, from Winnipeg says: it is reported that Lieut. -Governor Schultz has been en- trusted with the task of settling the Manitoba school dillicutly. Schultz' reward, in case of success, will be a seat in the Dominion Cabinet, as Min- ister of the Interior. Kur'rchinski, the man in jail at $er- lin on the char re of murdering Jeaner- ette, has deeded over all hie property to his wife.,He was reputed to be worth about 4,000. John Haggart's Tay Canal may be a great thing for John Haggart's mill, ut it is not a very profitable thing for the ratepayers of Canada, when it was projected its estimated cost was $132,660; up to last year it cost the peo- ple $476,128, and the contractor' wants $22,000 more. It cost for maintenance last year $2,458 and the revenue derived from it was $126. And yet the organs of the government tell us such works are full value for the enormous debt which a corrupt and incompetent Min- istry has piled. up. If a farmer had a horse which cost him a big sum of mon- ey yet ate $20 worth for every dollar it earned, he would not think he had se- cured a good bargain. Manitoba expects this harvest to yield a surplus of thirty million bushels of wheat, and at 50cents a bushel net, the harvest would be worth fifteen million dollars in money to the pro- vince. Among three hundred thou- sand people, fifteen million dollars is a good deal of money. If the crop be not over-estimated, the price of 50cents per bushel is not excessive, and The result, fifteen million dollars, would give five hundred dollars per head to every man, woman and child of the population. The crop on a hundred acre farm, bearing forty bushels to the acre, would be worth two thousand dollars. Considering that hundred acre farms are comparatively scarce in Manitoba, where farmers think no- thing of seeding down two hundred acres in wheat, it is easy seeing how fast grain must run into money when the crop is harvested before frost and prices range from Mir to good, i:t"tn. KORNS. HORNS. There are naof'e . than one sort of borne. Some corn is planted in the ground and the other sort don't need planting: they grow quite natural on men's toes and don't need hoeing. This kind of born has two sena— one gentle or tender like until BilllI Jotter steps on your foot, when it gets boiliplg mad and swears like everything: the other is hard headed and makes a row all the time, especially when your boots are on. I didn't like borne, and use the extracting medicine, Putnam's Painless Corn Ex. traotor,which removes them painlessly in twenty-four hours. Women as Detectives. Almost every profession and business is open to the woman of to -day, who seems to grasp the particular methods required with an intelligence that wins universal admiration for her capacity. Not so many years ago Charles Dickens laughed at the female lawyer in his char- acter of "Sally Brass," yet at the present time how many women of an utterly different type are practising law in various American cities! In New York it has been for some time a fashionable necessity for the rich man's daughter to attend classes and Iectures in law,and to receive, if possible, a degree. Among the many women of metropolitan fame, Miss Helen Gould is noted for her clover comprehen- sion of legal technicalities, which will doubtless aid her in guarding her im- mense fortune. One branch of work about which little has been written.comparatively speaking, is a woman's career as a detective. For this her natural intuition and her interes. in intrigue especially qualify the weaker (?) sex. It Is a—giositive fact that yery many detective bureaus employ women regularly in the secret service, but they guard their names with care and will not reveal them. The Pinkertons have many clever wo men of their staff of workers, and give , them generous payment for efficient ac- complishment. Their women are used in three ways: First, 'as "shadowing" sus- picious characters, that is to say, fol- lowing them about the streets and learn- ing their haunts and habits; secondly, to watch and become acquainted with per- sons who are likely to know the object of the search, and who may be able to im- part information. The great art here comes in quickly determining how im- portant this person may be, and in draw- ing out the required knowledge with a tact that never awakens suspicion. The third division is -by, riding in street ctrs and railway trains, and watching the guards and conductors to see if they serve the company properly,and if they are hon- est with the funds they collect. Often the wives and daughters of railway men " make application at the detective bureau for this kind of work and are received. Again, women often serve through the private employment of a detective official, who, during the course of an investiga- tion, realizes the importance of some wo- man's co-operation, and engages and pays her for helping him acquire the necessary data and preserving the scent of the trail. The Use of the "Siren." Those ear-splitting, blood -curdling hor- rors which masquerade under the name of "siren" are now oounted indispensable to steam craft. They are valuable not so much for the awful nightmare of a noise they make, as for the echoes they evolve. The pilot's quick ear waits for the echo from tilt screech which the steam causes and he is able to calculate to a nicety how close to shore his craft may be or whether there are any other vessels about hare, even in the densest fog. If there is no echo then there is no shore and no craft to bother about, for the sound waves have an unobstructed passage into space. A large steamer recently worked her way into the capes amid a dense fog and her .•:iut located several vessel; at ancho-.whic'h he was enable to clear b: rhe constant use of the unmusical. -• stem. * * "Of course, dear," sue whisp 'Nati after awhile, "I wouldn't have gone with him even if he had asked me." "Polly, didn't he ask you?" There was no answer. I couldn't see her fru',, hat I noticed a convulsive move- ment of her shoulder and thought 1 heard a suppressed giggle. I kissed he. r:ernly. The Youth of Oyer Land. "In a recent table made from personal investigation it was found that fifty-five percent. of boys betwrier the Ages of ten and twenty-one used tobacco, thirty per cent. used liquor and forty-three per cent. used profane, vulgar or indec nt lan- guage." He Took It With Him. Scene—A chemist's shop in Holborn. To the assistant enters an Irishman. He points to a pile' soap. Assistant—" Well?" Customer—"want a lump of that." Assrtant "Thank you. Will you have it emitted or unscented'?" Customer—"I'll 'take it wid me." The man who says that "talk is cheap" Perchance forgets the price That he has often had to pay For medical advice.
