Much heart and derve weekness is caused by undue rise of tea, coffee and tobacco; palpitation, nervousness, irritability excit- ability, lack of codfldence, etc., are sure symptoms. Milburns Heart and NerVe Pills bring ready relief, by steadying the nerves and regulating the heart. They are a true heart and nerve food. A cable dispatch from London says: Ian Maclaren, who was talked of for a church in New York, has just missed one of the best Presbyterian pulpits in England. When Dr. Pentecost resign- ed Marylebone church, in London, it was expected that Rev John Watson would be his successor, but the author- ities read his book, "The Mind of the Master," and decided that it was writ- ten from a Unitarian standpoint, be- sides treating one of the most solemn subjects in the lightest of spirits. MeCtillivray and Annexation. • • • ••• • (Chicago l3riti8h-ltmerice.n). It may be a great surprise to his Canad- ian friends to learn that Mr. McGillivray, ex-M.P., and now Supreme Secretary of the Independent Order of Foresters, has come out fiat -footed on annexation of the Dominion to the United States. At a meeting of the Court Independence in Boulevard Hall, Chicago, last Saturday evening, McGillivray, in the course of a "glowing tribute to America", said that, "although Canada was under British dom. ination, such was a farce, and it needed only one word from the capitol at Wash- ington to end the farce forever". Mr Mc- Gillivray is further quoted as having said that "he looked forward to the day, and at no retnote period, when the stars and stripes of the glorious republic would be the only flag of recagnized authority on the continent". That day, he closed by saying, "had already arrived, for the Unit- ed States was the arbiter of the doctrinek of this,continent, and it needed only one word from Uncle Sam to end British do- minion in Canada forever," Such talk from an ex -M: P. of the Do- minion—and a Conservative at that—oonys with a singularly bad grace. It is antago- nistio to thesntire traditions ane policy of the Conservative party, as inaugurated and Maintained by Sir John McDonald and his successors. The annexation idea, moreover, has been vigorouely repudiated by Premier Laurier and the other Liberal leaders, and finds no counte- nance among the memos of self-respect- ing people of the Dominion. Mr MeGilli• vre,y, consequently, occupies the position of a man who has proven recreant to the policy and patriotic principles of the party VS which he professed to adhere when in office,and who coolly stultifiee ib his stump speeches the great Canadian policy that be once claimed to represent in parliament, Hie remarks were evidently designed to catch he ear. of those who hate Britain and everything British; they could never have been spoken with tmpunity in the hearing of true -spirited Canadian Americans, for the latter still cherish iv regard for the land of their birth that will not permit th • listen tamely to snob treasonable tra [It fie but fair to llItr McGillivray ay that he has since denied entirely th e - going.] At a meeting of the Winthrop cheese factory, the company rented the ;fac- t() F.

The Goderich Star says:—There is still no news as to the outcome of the investigation of those alleged partizan officials. P. M. Seeger said that he had sent the papers to Ottawa, but nod heard nothing about them. Mr S. J. A. Boyd, teacher, Belfast, has been given a leave of .tbsence until midsummer, to prosecute his sttfclies in Goderich. The board of trustees have secured the services ot Mr S. Beckett, to fill the position in the interval. „ Mr John Watters, of the llth con. of Howick, had the misfortune to lose a valuable horse on Sunday. The ani- mal was being taken out to water, when it slipped on some smooth ice and fell so heavily that he sustained fatal injuries. Daniel Ransom, who for the past el- even years has been an inmate of the London Asylum, and who formerly re- sided at Exeter, died there on Sunday last at the age of 58 years. Deceased was stricken about three weeks ago with a severe stroke of paralysis, from which he never recovered. The wife and five children of the man Farewell, now in jail on a charge of raising Dominion notes, were sent to Goderich a few days ago, it is said by the authorities of Barrie, and on Wednesday P. M. Seeger made out a warrant for their committal to jail as vagrants, pending the disposal of the charge against the father. The World's Wheat IN INDIA THE ACREAGE HAS FALLEN OFF 5,000,000 ITALY AND RUSSIA ALSO BROW LOSS- ES—OTHER COUNTRIES REPORT FAVORABLY. In the current report of the Statis- tician, Hem7 A. Robinson, of the Ag- ricultural Departreent, is that of the European orrfcondition and prospects of crops in Gfeat Britain and the con- tinent. together with the official esti- mate of wheat sowings in India for the present year. It shows:— Europe—Favorable reports as to the condition of winter wheat and other crops are received from Great Britain France, Spain, Oereaany, Austria-Hun- gary, Routhania, the northern and central parts of Russia and Poland In Italy the crops have suffered from excessive rains and In the soutneen part of Russia winter wheat has been destroyed on a large scale by severe weather preceding §nowfall. It is esti- mated that in Podolia and Besarabia, alone 2,000,096 acres -will have to be re - sown with spring wheat, and the sanae is trpe of large area in the Khersonese and other fertile southern provinces. India—The official estimate of wheat sowing shows an enormous decrease of acreage. A total area of 16,750,000 i acres s reported, as compared with 21,777,000 on Jan 1, 1896, and 26,032,000 op Jan. 1, 1895. The estimated aver- age production per acre of 10 bushels will result, under favorable circum- stance, in a crop of 167,500,000 bushels, a quantity insufficient to meet domes- tic requirements. The official estimates of last year's British hop crop shows a product of 453,188 cwts in 1896, as compared with 553,396 cwts in 1895, 636,846 cwts in 1894 and 414,929 cwts in 1893, the average annual prodnction for the four yeais being 514,500 cwts, which ;epresents just about half the annual consump- tion. Perfumes. • Some authorities insist that perfumes . • have an evil effect upon certain constitu- Lions, One writer affirms that if perfumes are tqo concentrated "they may give rise to serious symptoms, to convulsions and spasms, or even death." Plants with white blossoms have a lar- ger proportion of fragrance. Lilac, helio- trope, myrtle, violet, lily of the valleY, mignonette and the pale rose furnish very sweet and choice perfumes. One of the most delicious of scents'and the only floral perfume which cannot be imitated, is the jasmine, or Persian "yasmin." 11 18 great- ly prized in the east and referred to by Persian and Aralnac. poets. A variety of this flower known as "moogree" Is held sacred to Vishnu itnd largely used in the Hindoo religious ceremonies. Arriong the prospective delights of the Hindoo para- dise are the prodigality of rich perfumes and the gardens of jasmjne and lilies. , In Turkey the wood of the jasmine is naade Into long pipes, which are valued for their aroma. The Chinese use the flower for scenthig tea. An acre of land is computed to yield about 500 pounds of flowers during a season. This is valued at from R25 to IS35. Perfumes are propured in several ways. From the wood, such as sandal; from the bark, as oinnamon; from the leaves, as patchouli; from the bloivcre, as rose; from the fruit, as citron, and from the seeds, as alm,und.—London Society. OH!

B. The A recent article in a Feliiitifie jorirnal stated that three-foot:1m of the women found in state asyluirs for the insane were farmers' wives. If this is true, and there Is no reason to doubt it, it should be inter- esting to know why. Another authority some time ago de- clared that the larger numlitts of . male lu- ng:tics b'ecariCe iane- througn an exagger- ated egotism, while the principal causes of lunacy among 'women were disappointed affection or the "dreadful round" of a "hard, monotonous, solitary life." This last statement bears out the first Nothing can be ri;,iore wearing on the nerves than the constant strain of a never ending routine coupled with the mental stagnation which farmers' wives have usually had to endure. No treadmill could be more endlessly recurring than the in- flexible round of daily duty, early and late, which the farmer's wife of a few years ago had to perforea.—Exchange. A Rug Test. A test of the ggnuinenesa of an oriental rug or carpet, which a Constantinople gen- tleman says is sure, is to exarnine carefully to see if each stitch is knotted instead of trusting th those easily put on marks of age, patches, holes and crooked places. If the stitch is knotted and firm, the rug is genuine Turkish; but if the stitch can be pulled out, it is imitation, no matter how closely the original rug may have been copied in pattern or color. An oriental dealer's test is to drop a live coal on the rug and when it has burned a little to remove it quickly with the fingers. If the scorching entirely disappears, leaving the original colors unaltered, it is proof of the genuineness of the rug. SplUed Arcone.. A suggestion made by Mien Parloa ro- lates to the spilling of alcohol on highly polished wood, an accident which may readily accompany the use of the chafing dish or the curling tongs at a dressing ta- ble. In the case of the former, as the salad oil is apt th be within quick reach, it is to bo at once npplied. In the other case the alcohol may be wiped up while the 011 18 being brought, taking care not to spread the spot.

The hairbrushes on many of the dainti- est dressing tables would strike terror to the heart of a physician were he to exam- ine thorn closely. They are dainty, with silver or beautiful fragile handles, but the bristles! They may not look dusty or full of dirt to the casual glance, but run the comb briskly through them and see the par- ticles fly! Every one of those atoms means death and disease to the hair, "the crown- ing glory of woman." ,Hairbrushes, to be in good condition, should be washed once a week and that very °artfully, as too frequent exposure to water softens the bristles and spoils them. One teaspoonful of ammonia to a quart of water is the correct solution, and in this the bristles of the brush should be dipped hastily in and out, taking care not to allow the back of the handle to touch the water. Dry near artificial heat, but not too quick- V.—Exchange. Mattress Pincushions. A popular wedding present of the day is a large sized mattress pincushion of white brocade, with a spray of forgetme- note and orange buds worked in a medal-, lion in the center and the bride's initial letter or letters in elongated tracery passed apparently through the outline of the me- dallion, as if it was of gold wire and light- ly hung up. At the four corners are white pins, two being of colored beads, while all round the side are put in small and large black and white guarded pins, with a pearl headed one at e,ach corner. They are not new by any means, these mattress pincush- ions, but lately they seem to have "caught on" amazingly. Perhaps the secret is that a royal princess purchased one for her toi- let table at a fashionable bazaar, or that they are handsome and convenient and contain every pin that the feminine mind can possibly desire or dress require.—Ex- change. Kitchen Aprons. The very shriplicity of sorne new method often makes ono feel a sense of stupidity at not having been the, fortunate origina- thr of the improvement. ' Here is' d'aug- gestion that -may be new th some house- keepers, and sewing societies which make kitchen aprons for sale will do well to fol- low it: Make your kitchen aprons with a ruffle on the bottom. This will stand out a little fuller than your dress skirt and will catch whatever you may drop or spill, thus protecting the dress skirt. The front hem ofisa dress is often soiled because the apron does not quite cover it or is drawn tightly across it, but this ruffle will rem- edy the matter so effectually that yoti will wonder you did not think of it before. Fotor Minute Ice Cream. A dish of ice cream made in four minutes was part of a test examination of a class in sickroom cookery recently. Two table- spoonfuls of cream were put in a bowl, sweetened with powdered sugar, flavored with a teaspoonful of clear strong coffee and beaten light in a minute with a cream whisk. The cream was then put in a little half pint oyster pail, the cover carefully fitted on. This was set in a quart pail, the spate between filled.with shredded ice and fine salt. Three minutes turning in this freezing mixture secured A.saucerful of smooth coffee ice cream for the imagi- nary waiting invalid.—New York Post. Dining Room Plants. No one quite knows why, but every one does know that the table ferneries left per- sistently in the dining room dry and rust or grow in straggling fashion or otherwiss fall of their original beauty very quickly. Florists say gas, furnace air and various things in explanation. It is a good plan th have two or three of these centerpieces growing at once and change them about froth an upper room that is not kept at top heat all day to the dining table. In this way the life of all will be much prolonged. Small baskets the size of the fern dish may hold the duplicates. Water In the Room. As water collects and generates inspuri- ties it is a good thing to empty the washing basin and jug in the bedroom every morn- ing so as to !moire the refilling them with fresh. Drinking water should be boiled, analysis having proved that filters are not to be trusted, for, after having been in use for some time, they add to the water the dangerous accumulations they have taken up in previous disc. To remove the insipid taste of boiled water pour it backward and forward from one jug to another. Moths Must Be Watched In Winter. Moth e will wok in carpets in rooms that are kept warm in the winter as well as in the summer. A sure method of re- moving the pests is th pour strong alum water on the floor to the distance of half a yard around the edges before laying the carpets. Then once or twice during the season'sprinkle dry salt over the carpet be- fore sweeping. Insects do not like salt, and sufficient adheres to the carpet to pre- vent their alighting upon it.—New York World. White Feathers. Sbiled vehite feathers, after being Washea, are dried by patting and, shaking over the fire. A dull silver knife must be used to curl each fiber for the best effect. In pre- paring for washing pour boiling water on shavings of white soap and a little soda. When a lather has been formed that is not too hot for the hand, each feather is washed separately. If tho lather becomedark colored, another must be made.

The Supreme Grand Lodge of the Sons of England Benevolent Society convened at Brantford, on Tuesday with a large number of delegates from all parts of the province. The address of the supieme_grand president, Mr J. W. Loudon, of Belleville, showed that nine lodges had heen instit ted (luring tbe past year. Three in Nova Scotia, one in Manitoba, one in ,Nova and four in Ontario, one of the latter being Leamington Lodge at Sault Ste - Marie, resuscitated. The grand presi. dent expressed special pleasure at the extension of the order to Newfound- land, and the prospect that it would soon be extended to England. As to a celebration of the Queen's Diamond Jubilee, Mr Loudon thought that a ,simple, plain memorial expression of continued loyalty as Sons of England in Canada would please her Majesty and be received with favor.
