Two charming love stories, one by Cyrus Townsend Brady, plenty of advice regarding Christmas Gifts, timely pointers on Cookry, Winter -time care of Plants, all the fashions.. of the day interpreted into simple language, can . be found in the Christmas number of The Delineator. It is a splendid magazine, satisfactory inside and out. There is no magazine for women at present, published that is more 'practical in all its pages.

Switzer, of lot 16, concession 5, Step- hen being a cob of corn shaped be- tween a human being's 'hand and an animal's paw. There are four distinct branches, representing four fingers or claws and one representing a thunb. It is kernelled in rowslike theorclinary cob of corn, Until it reaches the part representing the hand, the kernels then growing promiscuously and go to` form the hand. It is certainly a curiousity. No Sin. ; It is often told that to lie, steal, drink or swear is a great sin. Now, anyone wishing to commit anyof these four great evils, can do so without sin- ning. When you lie, let it be down to pleasant; dreams. When you steal, let it be away from immoral associates. When you drink let it be nothing but pure water. When you swear, swear that you will patronize the ADVOCATE, pay your subscriptions and not send away from home for job printing or go around asking for tenders on a fifty cent job.
