Bright and economical women find Diamond Dyes the greatest helps in housekeeping. The thrifty housewife, with the aid of Diamond Dyes can re -color old and faded dresses, capes, jackets, pants, vests and coats, and make them look like new garments. In thousands of homes this work of renewing and re- creating by the aid of Diamond Dyes, saves scores of dollars every year. The wonderful Diamond Dyes inake such lovely and lasting colors that goods dyed with thein cannot be told from new. Success with Diamond Dyes is always certain and sure.

The Ohio Farmer presents a very etni- $e and practical device for puttng on fertilizer by hand. The sack used for holding the fertilizer should be of the best quality of cot- Sen,woven for grain, so as to be tight against the e:;ca.pe of the finest portion of the dust and can be used in two 11Rerent ways. The Plan best for carry- ing and handling is like. the Illustration. Get a tin spout about six inches long, made et tiso tinner's, with one end bulged consid- erably like a funnel, as at A. Cut a hole just large enough to let the tube through from the inside, then wrap the edges down tight to the tin tube with strong cord. This tin tube should be placed about half way between the bottom and top of sack. A strap 1 1-2 inches wide and 3 to 12 inches long is sewed on the bottom of sack with strong cord attached to tie up mouth at C., after putting in fer- tilizer. I used the old g -um hose from my grain drill to fit over the tin tube, the latter being made to fit In the gum tight. By placing the sack over the head with strap resting on opposite shoulder from side the sack is to be worn, the fertilizer naturally settles v oentre of sack ready to run out of the gum tube. By placing the hand at B the tube can be guided and the flaw of fertili- zer regulated by pressure on the gum hose, and the mixture can be shaken up by the lower part of arm, to pre- vent clogging, The fertilizer can be scattered over any width of row by zigzag motion of hand. This arrange- ment will allow any speed that the operator may want to use. A hole of, say ' 1-2 lobes, will allow a large amount of fertilizer to pass out, which may be lessened by the speed of opera- tor In walking as well as In the use of the pressure of the hand on the gum tube. — Hand Fertilizer.

Many cultiva- tors do not fully realize the Arnmenee advantage of keeping the ground In a loose condition. In this way number - lees weeds are destroyed, and of more Importance, perhaps, than all, the loose soil lets in the air and su'nshi'ne, which are of the highest importance to plarlt growth.

There seems to be a great deal of uncertainty existing as to the pecura- ary part which a bridegroom takes In his own wedding. At a recent very swell affair the two young people about to be united in the holy bands of wedlock sat dawn deliberately and totaled up the entire expenses of the wedding—they amounted to a large sum, to be sure—and then divided thein evenly between the two men—the fa- ther and the groom. In point of fact, and as a matter of good taste, he should pay 'only for the carriage which takes the bridal couple from the church arid to the station, with all the fees inci- dental to a ¢Lurch wedding and the gifts of flowers and jewelry to the ushers and bridesmaids.

Now one of the first questions I have been asked in regard to these rays Is this: "How did you obtain a light so intense that you could take a photo- graph through a board an Inch thick?" The answer is this: The light is not intense to the eye. It does not appear as bright as that of a fire -fly; indeed, it cannot be seen on the darkest night at a distance of 300 feet. Yet a candle can be distinguished on a similar night at least a mile. But the rays of a candle are entirely cut off from a photographic plate by a sheet of Paste- board a 16th of an Inch thick, or evert less. The cathode rays are intense, however, to the photographic plate, which can be termed the photographic eye.—Prof. John Trowbridge, in Scrib- ner's The reporter everywhere, but more particularly in America, has of late grown to feel that he is an extremely important factor in contemporary a- fters.

Rare 014 Coins That Aire Worth"Meeh in Nuudetaatle Circles — The Old -Time Copper Coags Elan Most Pro:Serius in the United Statue. In the *avant of money that contin- ually Rowe thorough the treasury are many pieces IRO rtb tar more titan their face. They IL;e passed Into Uncle Saga's coffers by people who have no no notion, of their value in the market that Is (treated by collectors. For ex- ample, mention might be made of a handkerchief full of fractional currency sent in by a miser's heirs not long arca the notes being of the earliest Issues and - signed by Gen. Spinner's own hand. Suoh curiosities are sometimes picked out and preserved by shrewd clerks, but tills is not supposed to be permitted, and the bulk of them find their way to the melting pot or the macerator. Strange to say, the most Precious eaeclmens are old-style Dopper cents. Of these Nig copper pennies 119,000,000 are unaccounted for, having never been returned to the treasury for redemp- tion. It is very rarely that one of them is seen In circulation, and nearly all of them have been lost so com- pletely as to have passed in effect gut of existence, Some of them are ex- ceedingly rare and cotnmand high prices. The rarest of all is the cent of 1799. Anybody who has one of that date, in first-class condition, can sell it for $260. Some of the old-fashioned half -cents are valuable also. It is an odd fact that the market value of a piece of metal money front the collector's point of view is deter- mined chiefly by Its• state of preserve - tion. A coin may be ever so rare, and yet be nearly worthless If worn to any extent. The precious cent of 1799 can be got for :2 or even less, if in poor condition, but its value is mul- tiplied a hundred fold if it retains the gloss of the minting. The copper pen- nies one sees occasionally in circulation are black with age, but :.he uncircu- lated cent half a century old, which has been put away and carefully kept from injury by the collector, still re- tains somewhat of the yellow sheen of the newly stamped piece. This, with its cameo design unrubbed and un- worn, 1s what is called a "perfect" coin. All United States coins of dates prior to lb:i9 are worth a premium, if In per- fect condition. To such a point is ttas matter carried that a piece in a good state of preservation is actually dam- aged by cleaning, from the collector's point of view. From the standpoint of the numismatist an uncirculated coin is something sacred, to be wrapped In ctamois skin and kept even from ex- posure to the air. The most common of the pennies of early dates is that of 1798, whish may be purchased for as Tittle as five cents, yet a perfect specimen will fetch 820. A perfect cent of 1793 cam be sold for 8100. It was the first penny issued by this Govern- ment. Plenty of 1808 cents may be bought for 10 cents each, but a perfect and uncirculated example will fetch $20. Only a half dozen perfect cents of 1798 are known. A perfect cent of which he works Imposes fixed restric- tions and distinct limitations upon him.

That is the only break in the continuity of the coinage of cents. The cents of 1817, 1818, 1819 and 11120 All through her life, although it has been a busy one, Queen Victoria has, says a contemporary, been a great reader. There is hardly any book of note that has not passed through her hands. During Her Majesty's reign she has made a collection of about 80,000 volumes, kept under charge of a librar- ian and two assistants at Windsor, Lord Beaconsfield's novels and Lord Tennyson's poems, with Charles Dick- ens' works, have for years constituted Her Majesty's favorite reading. Strange to say, Thackeray's works have never been favorites with members of the royal family, although, of course, they have their places In the library. "Allee In Wonderland" Is another favorite book with the Queen, who Is also fond of a number of the best novels written by Mrs. Gaskell, Miss Braddon and Mrs. Henry Ward. Black's, Steven - eon's and Marie Corelll'a works are also Been at Windsor.

"Would you like to live with me and have everything my little boy has:" she Inquired. "What does your little boy have?" asked the child, fixing his large, serious eyes upon her. "Oh, he has books and tope and a pony," and she enumerated a lot of things. "Has he any papa " asked the child. "Oh, yes, he has a dear, kind papa, who gives him all these things." "Then I would like to be your little boy," said the child, gravely, "for mY papa Is dead, and I arould rather have him than any of the other things."

MORE Curative power is contained in Hood's Sareaparilla than in any other similar preparation. It costs the proprietor and manufacturer more. It costs the jobber mote and it is worth more to the consumer. More skill is required in its preparation and it combines more remedial qualities than any oth- er medicine. Consequently it hits a record of more cures and its sales are more than those of any other prepara- tion.

NICHOLLS, A PROMINENT TORONTO CONGREGATIONAL MINIS- TER, HAS TO SAY ON AN IMPORTANT SUBJECT. !~:i Henry Ward Beecher helievet(nan's religious faith was colored large y,by the condition of his health. He had said from the pulpit that no man could hold riwht views on religion when his stomaco, was out of order. It is quite certain that no preacher can preach with effect if his head is stuffed up with cold, or if he is a sufferer from eatarrah. It is not surprising, there- fore, that we find the leading clergy- men of Canada speaking so highly of Dr. Agnew's Catarrhal Powder, for cold in the heed or catarrh. They know the necessity better than any- one else of being relieved of this trouble. Rev. S. Nicholls, of Olivet Congregational church, Toronto, is one who has used this medicine, and over his own signature has borne testi- mony to its beneficial character. One short puff of the breath through the Blower, supplied with each bottle "of Dr. Agnew's Catarrhal Powder, diffuses this powder over the surface of the nasal passages. Painless and delightful to use, it relieves in ten ininutes, and permanently cures ca- tarrh, hay fever, colds, headache, sore throat, tonsilistis and deafness. Sixty cents.

Dr. Kilbourn was called in hut the hand had swollen to such an extent that it was found im- possible to locate the steel. For two weeks it remained in the hand, the pain becoming more intense and the swelling increasing every day. At length Miss Hooper decided to utilize the cathode rays, in the hope of getting relief, and, accordingly, Capt. Cochrane, R. M. C., took an ''x' ray photograph of the hand. The photo showed the needle distinctly, it having worked its wav into the flesh of the little finger and up to the, joint.
