THOUSANDS KNOW OF THE QUICK AND CERTAIN RELIEF THAT COMES FROM SOUTH AMERICAN CORN CURE. This medicine will not cure all the ills that flesh is heir to, but it will cure kidney trouble of whatever kind—no case too ag- gravated. It will speedily cure—sure rel- ief in six hours. It is rich in healing pow- ers, and whilst it quickly gives ease, where pain existed before, it also gives strength to the weak and deranged organs, making the cure complete and lasting. Thousands who know what South American Kidney Cure has done for them will tell you so. For sale by Watts & Co. Rev Thos. Cullen, of the Askin St. Meth- odist church, died last Sunday. His daughter died a couple of weeks before, of typhoid fever, and they never informed him of the fact. Mr J. W. Nesbitt died at his home in Woodstock, Ont., aged 77.

The by-law to grant ten thousand dollars towards the National Consumptive Sanat• orinm at Gravenhurst was carried by an overwhelming majority on Monday, only 6 votes being recorded against it. A woman in Jamestown, N. Y.. has been sentenced to six months imprisonment for having caused a "didn't know it was load- ed(' accident. She pointed a revolver at a friend and unintentionally discharged the one loaded chamber, inflicting a slight flesh wound. The ease was taken up and prosecuted by the authorities, the wounded man being an unwilling witness. Although there is naturally much sympathy in all each cases, it would be much better in the interests of public safety if prosecutions were much more frequent. This careless- ness is a crime, and the wile publicity giv• en by proeeontions seems the only deter- rent. A CAREFUL STUDENT OF SOCIAL REFORM REV. W. GALRRAITH, LL. B., PASTOR OF ELM STREET METHODIST CHURCH, TORONTO, HAS A GOOD WORD TO SAY OF DR AGNEW'S CA- TARRHAL POWDER. The Rev Wm. Galbraith, LL. B., is one of the thoughtful preachers of the day. The active interest he has taken in guess tions of social reform has given him wide •ipflnenoe outside of hie own church, where hininfluenoe is nndispnted. His mind is of the kind that thinks out a problem, and then he is able to speak with force and in. telligenoe. He LI to be credited with exam- ining into themerits of Dr. Agnew's Ca- tarrhal Powder, with the same bent of mind• And what does he say? That in this medicine he has found a reme=y that gives quick relief for cold in the head, which is ed uncomfortable to everybody, and giving relief thele it helps, perhaps, more than any other remedy to stave off the i11 effects that comes from catarrhal trouble. One short pnff of the breath through the Blower. supplied with each bottle of Dr. Agnew's Cartarrhal Powder, diffuses this powder over the surface of the nasal pass- ages. Painless and delightful to nee, it re- lieves in IO minntesand, permanently cures Catarrh. hay fever, polda. headache, sore throat, toneilitie and deafness. 80 Conte, Sample bottle with blower a lit en receipt of 10 cents irl stamps Or Silver.

Price, who was Treasurer of the United States under Buchanan, is living in St. Louis, an in- teresting relic of the lost pause. The old judge gets painfully excited when be talks about "the wrongs of the South," and in spirit he is as unreconstructed as were Jefferson Davis and Jabal Early. Judge Price, who is now eighty years old, said the other day: "When Buchanan ask- ed Attorney General Black, of Pennsyl- vania, if the Government ootsld coerce a etato, he promptly replied, 'No." Do. spite this'fact Buchanan ordered the re- inforcement of Anderson at Sumter.

A Reputed Remedy for Hay Fever. Martyrs to hay fever will learn with In- terest the experience of Dr. Faber, of Hamburg, who suffered a great deal from hay fever during several summers.

He tried a reverse order of things on the hay fever and rubbed his oars until they be- came, red hot. He can now lead an en- durable existence. As soon as there is the least amount of fulness in the nose, the ears aro noticeably pale. A thorough rubbing of the ears has always succeeded in freeing the nasal mucous membrane from congestion.

The example of the Duke of York, the future king of England, who has had some elaborate designs tattooed on his arm, is said to have sot the English aris- tocracy wild, and tattooing has become the raga On the other hand, there are many people who have submitted them- selves to this needle and ink decoration, who have outlived their pride in it, and who feel rather ashamed of what they formerly looked upon as a distinction. For the benefit of sucb a medloal corres- pondent tells how tattoo marks may be re. moved. The marks are painted over with a concentrated solution of tanning. After. wards, by means of fine needles, a series of pickings is made over the tattooed do• sign, and over the surface thus picked Is passed a stick of nitrate of silver. At the end of a few minutes the blaok picking previously made become d0taohed, and the superficial layers of skin are charged with a tannate of silver. In order that the process may be perfectly successful, this surface must be powdered with tan- nin for two or three days. At the end of that time, the Inflammatory action has almost subsided, and the picked parts turn blank, forming a thin oruat, very adherent to the deeper skin, but painless. In fourteen or fifteen days the scab falls off, and in Ito place is seen a superficial red mark which gradually fades away unbil, , at"%he end of a few months, slgne of onloratiot► disappear, Of co. antleoptro precautions are duly take performing this operation.

It requires a groat deal of skill and p tienee to teach a dog to perform one or series of tricks. An old dog trainer give an explanation of how to teach several. To begin with the simpler tricks, fetch / Ing, carrying, etc. Many puppies wil fetch naturally, but if they will not, the are taught as follows: The article, what ever 1t mar -be. is first shown to the dog and then put into his months If he is in alined to drop it, the jaws must be hel together until the dog understands that h must keep the article in his mouth. He 1 'then led, carrying the article; then he i put down on the ground and he is told t pink it up, which he soon understands after which the dog is called, and will the carry the article to his master. Nearly every dog takes to the water of his own acoord, and atter boing taught to carry and fetch, it will bring a piece o wood out of the water. You then teach 1 to diva. This is more difficult. You mus have clear water to begin with. Take th dog out in a boat and fasten a stone to a piece of light wood, so that it will sink gradually. Put the dog in the water and show him the stick; then drop it in. He will sec it slowly sinking and try toget it. To do this he must put his jaws beneath the surface. Gradually increase the weight, and consequently the rapidity with which it sinks, and the dog will fin- ally get all his head under. When once this is done the difficulty is past, for the dog has confidence and will gradually go deeper and deeper for the stone, until he can reach a depth of twelve or fourteen feet. To teach a dog to beg is easy enough. Just stand him -up in a corner so that he oan lean against the wall, and hold him there until he oan sit up without assist- ance. Then bring him to the middle of the room and repeat the operation. Thla can be taught in a couple of days. From begging we come to walking, and this takes much longer,I It is accomplish- ed in the Sante way as the above, only the dog mast be led by the paw, after be has learned to stand tip properly, Then oomes another dlfllauit thing to beach—turning head over hole: To ao- oompllsh this the trainer must get behind the dog, and grasp the forelegs in hie tiro bands. Then he must gradually draW them baok, until the dog loses their sup- port. The dog will then put bis bead be- tween his lege, and the farther book they are drawn the farther he will put it: 'At last it will be right on the floor, and then the trainer just turns him over. This per- formance will have to be gone through dozens of times before the dog will do it of his own acoord, and even than it will take weeks of practice and reward before bo will do it properly to order. This is also the first step toward teach- ing him to turn a somersault. When he pan turn head over heels properly, the hlafnd must be planed on the ahoulders,and JUNE as be is turning he must be given a start lift; the result of this will be to run him oompietely over while in the air. ffe will be surd fo• eche down on bis feet omehow, and Wili in time learn to give imself his own linpetue With his hind cgs, and so turti Mean• over Wittioiit caching the floor with r,ie head. A back Somersanit i`W taught in the same way, only to begin wfdf the support the hind legs is withdrawn: But very. ew dogs ever learn to do this, as'rribst of he "take off" meet be from the fo;Pelbgs, nd some doge never seem to catch tile - neck of taking it. Teaching doge to awing on a trapeze, so-' ee-saw, and to run along, trundling a arrel with their hind legs. are all ramifil ations of standing upright and walking' n the hind lege; it is merely a question balance and can only be acquired by o dog by long practice. He' soon knows what he has to do, bow- er, if he is good at walking upright and sen pat through the motions of the trick. All other trioke, ringing the bell, pre- nding to die, reading tho paper or shut - ng the door, eta, are taught by putting animal through the different ante just the same way as a child is taught to ins by having his hand guided. Poodles e the best learners, mongrel poodles artioularly, but if a dog's father or other was a trio's dog, he will inherit eir talent in nine cases ont of ten, and deed will' Often do seVoral trioke of the pier kind' Without any teaching at all. n HARPER'S BAZAR In 1896 a- The twenty-ninth year of Harper's Ba- a zar, beginning ,jn January, 1896, finds it' s • maintaining its deserved reputation both as a fashion journal and a weekly periodical for home reading.
