BULLETIN A LA LAURIER.
To meet the evident requirements of
the case, and enable the supporters of
the Liberal party to understand the
position of their leaders on public ques-
tions, a daily bulletin of political prob-
abilities should be issued. It would
read something like this

WHAT HAVE THEY DONE ?
What have the Opposition to the
Dominion Government done that they
should secure public approval?
1. They opposed the purchase of the
Northwest territories for $ 1,500,000.
2. They opposed the construction' of
the Canadian Pacific Railway.
3: They opposed the construction of
the Grand Trunk Railway, by oppos-
illthe public aid given to that enter-
prise.
4.. They left our market open, while
in power, to the American farmers,
while the U. S. market was closed to
Mt.
5. They advocated in opposition a
Commercial Union with the United
States.
6. They were ready and anxious to
discriminate against Gretat Britain.
7. They increased our taxes while in
power three millions a year.
S. They taxed tea and coffee that
every man uses.
9. They increased our debt $10,000,-
000 and left us nothing to show for it
but a history of deficits.
10: They increased the superannua-
tion expenditure five times as fast as
have the °onset vatives.
II. While preaching purity they
have practiced the most open-faced
corruption.
I2. They have changed their trade
piney almost every year to try to get
into, power, and have thus shown
themselves to be demagogues.
Bright and Economical Women
MAKE 178E OF DIAMOND DYES.
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 use of common
adulterated dyes means destruction to
your materials, and loss of temper and
money.
Guard against substitutes; see that
each package bears the name "Dia-
mond."
Now that the fly season is near at
hand the following plan of ridding the
kitchen and dining room of the pests

ing previously closed the doors and
windows. In a few minutes open the
morn and the flies will he found to have
entirely disappeared. Only a faint
odor of the fumes of carbolic acid will
remain.

Rand Fertilizing Device.
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.

A Handy Darden Tool.
An Improved souffle hoe. like the one
Sketched, run between the garden rows,
will destroy hosts of aprouting weeds,
particularly if the sun to shining
brightly at the time. ]t le easily made
of a bit of old saw blade and two strips
of half -round iron.
Where the strips
of iron curve under
the frame to ferrn
the "shoe" by which
the bla.de may be
raised or lowered,
the iron should be
made wider than
elsewhere, so that the shoes will not
readily sink into the soil, Lowering
or raising the handle will raise or
lower the blade, which should have
a sharp edge to elide easily under the
surface of the ground. 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. In field crops recourse must
be had to a horse cultivator. but in
the ease of a garden the scuffle hoe
that is here figured will serve very ef-
tectively.—Ameeigen Agrioulturlsts,-_

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. This ougnt

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

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

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

author, and of his works she possesses

The old-time fractional currency, if
new, clean and crisp, commands a pre-
mium of 25 to 100 per cent, The same
notes, soiled, creased, torn or mended,
are worth no more than face value.
The rarest and most precious of the
fractional notes are those with per-
forated edges. They were the first
ones Issued by the Government. They
were printed like postage stamps, the
perforations enabling them to be torn
apart. But the. notes were often n-
jured In the tearing, on whish account
this method was discontinued. To -day
specimens of thls kind fetch $6 tot a
set of four, the denominations being
50 cents, 25 cents, 10 cents and 6 cents
These same notes of subsequent Issues,
plain edges, are worth only 82 a set. --

What He Wanted Most,
A lady, when shopping In a large
western city, noticed a very small boy
who was employed as "cash" In the
store, and, being attracted to the little
fellow, began, half quizzically, to ask
him questions.
"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

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. Hood's Sarsaparilla is the best
medicine to buy because it is an honest
medicine and thousands of testimonials
prove that it does actually and per-
manently cure disease.
1)0 NOT DO THIS.
Do not he induced to buy any other
if you have made up your mind to
take Hood's Sarsaparilla. Remember
that Hood's Sarsaparilla cures when
all others fail. Do not give up in de-
spair because other medicines have
failed to help you. Take hood's Sar-

Let our county Liberal contempor-
aries quote us it single utterance by
Mr. Laurier in opposition to remedial
legislation (not the remedial bill, but
remedial legislation) if they can. If
they cannot why continue the farce of
claiming that the Liberal leader is on
principle opposed tet remedial legisla-
tion or coercion of any sort.
Was Mr. Laurier in favor of imperial
trade federation when be made this
declaration in Toronto? "Every great
reform has cost the Reformers years of
labor, and those years of labor I am
prepared to give, and though theDem-
ocrats may he defeated in the United
States, and though Canadians may
grow fainthearted in Canada, the
Liberal party, so long as I have any-
thing to do with it, will remain true
to the cause of unrestricted reciproci-

THIS CHURCH GAVE TO THE WORLD A
BEECIIL'R—HEAR ALSO WHAT THE
REV. 8. 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. Sample with blower sent for
10c in stamps or silver. S. G. Detchon,

Two weeks ago Miss Hooper, of
Kingston, in missing her hand �iver
some sewing, ran a needle int� the
flesh of the palm, just below the little
finger. In endeavouring to take it out
the needle broke, the pointed end re-
maining in the flesh. 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. To extract it was
easy, and Dr. Kilbourn made one in-
cision, and removed the needle with-
out difficulty.
