If your bushes are not too old and thiekly mat- ted they can be so pruned. yet as to render them productive.

At times I suffered very mucfi pain from violent headaches, and in order to atop same, and upon the advice of a physician, I had a number of my teeth extracted, without deriving any advantage.

As to varie- ties, avoid: all foreign or mixtures of foreign blood in your gooseberries, for mildew is the final result of all we are acquainted with. Our natives are mil- dew proof and of fair quality. The Houghton is very productive and of fair quality, but the fruit is email. Chas. Downing is a large fruit but not as productive as it should be. Great ad- vancement is being made in the way of seedlings of our natives, and we trust to continue till we can produce a native gooseberry equal in size to any Eng- lish variety and with all the hardiness of the Houghton. GRAPE VINES. Louis Yalie writes: "How can I start grape vines from cuttings, and will it do to set them out in the spring?" Grape cuttings should be taken in No- vember, before severe weather. Cut to two or three buds each. The top cut should be an inch above the upper bud; the lower cut obliquely across just at than she now occupies. In 1894 Gen- eral Baratieri extended the protector- ate to the north-west by driving the Dervishes from Kassala and annexing a considerable quantity of territo Y • on the banks of • the Akbara. Hewing firmly established himself in that re- gion, he turned his attention to the south, where Ras Mangascia, the pow- erful Governor of Tigre, was assuming a threatening attitude. At the begin- ning of last year he advanced against this powerful antagonist and completely routed him. The consequence of that victory was that severalimportant chiefs at once gave in their allegiance to the Italian Government, and if .the General had not miscalaulated the number of troops he would require to hold his acquisitions, the war news from Abyssinia would probably have been of a very different complexion: A consideration of the entire circumstan- ces seems to show that there is only one thing that the Italian people could do of a more foolish character ' than getting rid of Crispi, and that would be to get rid of Baratieric the back of lower bud. Tie them in bundles of twenty-five or fifty. These may be kept in slightly damp sand in a cellar until spring, or may be bedded out at once if frost has been kept out of the bed. Usually the grape wood is stored in cellars and worked into cuttings in January and 'February, as the workmen have time. Trench these bundles of cuttings loosely and cover them three inches with rich soil. If they are covered with glass, as in cold frame, the callousing and rooting of these cuttings will be hastened. If the work is done on a large scale, as with nurserymen, the warmth of the sun without glass is depended on to cal- lous the cuttings. In April or May when the ground is warm and in fine condition, plant them in ground that has been very carefully prepared. Re- verse the cuttings and plant the cal- loused base of cuttings deep enough to allow of covering the top bud and top of cutting also an inch to lessen evap- oration while rooting.

Experience of a Clergyman in the World's Metropolis, An American clergyman who had crossed .the Atlantic for a holiday jour- ney took apartments in the center of London, and made a laborious effort to see the sights and to enjoy himself. He was alone and had no acquaint- ances in the, great city. He drove up and down the streets on omnibuses; he visited Westminster Abbey, St. Paul's Cathedral, scores of old churches and the Tower of London; he had several excursions on the Thames ; he walked over ten miles a day, and nevertheless was intolerably lonely and homesick. It was his first journey in. England, and he had expected to enjoy every mo- ment of it; but at the end of a fort- night he was footsore and dejected, and wished himself well out of London, and back in his quiet study at home pre- paring a sermon for Sunday. One Saturday morning he started out for a long walk, leaving his guide -book in his room, and having no plan for the morning's recreation and no destina- tion. tion. He walked for several miles, passing from one swarming hive of population to another, and penetrating far into the wide reaches of the East End. Tho vastness of London oppressed him. There were crowds of men, women and chil- dren wherever he went, but not a face that he had ever seen before or would ever see again.

The streets of the city were washed down with water from the hyd- rants all through the middle of the day, in an attempt to lower the blistering temperature. Business was at a stand- still, and the number of deaths of horses in the streets was enormous. During this day the consumption of water in Sydney .was 19,500,000 gallons. During this the second week of the great heat a temperature of from 100 degrees to 117 degrees was registered all over the colony of New South Wales and from all towns and agricultural districts came the same stories of deaths from the heat and general prostration. In the last week of the heat there were twenty-two deaths from sunstroke in and around Bourke, where the temper- ature was 117 degrees on several days. Cattle simply dropped dead in the fields and all crops were practically ruined. The heat was greatest in New South Wales, .put the temperature was al- most equally high, and entirely unpre- cedented in other .parts of Australia. An unusual 'feature of the heat wave was that a high wind blew over the whole country during most of the time, in sone places reaching a velocity of fifty seed more miles an hour. But it was a wind like the blast from a fur- nace, and it brought increased suffer- ing instead of some relief. It blew up the dust in blinding clouds in the cities and from the baked fields, and greatly increased the ravages of the bush fires. The heat wao felt out to sea for a dis- tance of nearly 200 miles.

In July, the Negus-another name for the ruler Menelek-respond- ed to the Czar's courtesy by sending an Embassy to St. Petersburg. Con- sidering that Abyssinia is by treaty subject to King Humbert's suzerainty the Italian Government was disposed to regard this as an act of contempt towards itself. The mission, headed by 1\Ienelek's son, Prince Damto, was treated with distinguished honor in St. Petersburg. The religious zeal of the Russians for the diffusion of the Orthodox faith among the subjects of the Negus was greatly stimulated, and it was proposed to send them a ship- load of streets, he found a narrow lane. where the houses were blackened with grime, and apparently deserted and empty. Weary from his long tramp he sat down on the stone step ot a dreary tenement house, and smiled grimly as he fancied %Shat his friends at, home would say if they could catch a glimpse of him in so strange and desolate a place. While lie was sitting there he heard a child's sobbing voice from the open hall- way behind bin. Looking around. lie saw a. little urchin of ten, dressed in tattered clothes, and crying as though his heart 'would break. "What s the matter, • me little fel- low G" asked the clergyman in his gent- lest tone.. "Homesick, sir," said the child. "Since mother died I have had no home. I don't seem to belong to anybody. I want. someone to talk to." "Well, lad, there are two• of us. Ism very lonely, too." "But haven't you a home anywhere?" "Yes, but it is a long way off, across the sea." "Why don't you go back to it f If I only had a home 1 would never leave R.' The lonely minister, who had found his vacation awful • tic n in the a %fu 1 sol itude of London,wit its millions of hu man souls, nutterably depressing, did not have an answer ready. But his Heart went out to the homeless little waif. The remainder of his vacation was de- voted to his new acquaintance. He took t the child out of the empty house, ob- tained decent clothes for him at a charitable institution, paid board for him at a lodging house, and finally carried him to America at the end of the va- cation. "We have been both of us homesick," said the good man, "and have made companionship for each other. I can- not leave my only friend behind me to become homesick again in the soli- tudes of this great city." HOLY PICTURES. Italytook, however, a different view of the situation. In the Italian Chamber of Deputies, July 25, the Minister of Foreign Affairs declared that all the powers had officially recognized the protectorate over Abyssinia which had been established by Italy, and had admitted that none of them was entitled to intervene between Menelek and the Italian Government. The send- ing of the mission to St. Petersburg was, however, but an indication of a growing discontent with the Italian protectorate on the part of the native tribes, several of which began to show signs of revolt, and to make armed incursions in the south against those who were loyal to the treaty. It is a matter of history that Signor Crispi strongly opposed the occupation of i t•assowah when it was first projected, lrisd that he did not heartily support the establishment of Italian dependen- cies on ,the shore of the Red Sea until the disaster of Dogali, in 1887, had made withdrawal impossible without loss of honor. The present 'situation is but the necessary and logical con- sequence of events ,which Italy could rnot control, War was forced izpoli her. i and she could do no more than defend her rights.

His health was seemingly com- pletely destroyed through la grippe. No medicine did him any good. "To three bottles of Nervine," he srya, 'I attribute my restoration to health anis strength." Neither man or woman can enjoy life when trouble,' with fiver complaint. This was the sentiment and feeling of W. J. Hill, the well- known bailiff of Bracebridge.

From the first few doses I took of Nervine I commenced to feel bet- ter, and am to -day restored completely to my usual health." A resident of the Maritime Provinces, in the person of S.

The wo- men of Canada are ready by scores to tell of the benefits that have ..come tai them through the use of South Ameri- can Nervine. Mrs, R. Armstrong, of Orillia, wife of the colperteur. of the Bible Society of that town, suffered for six years from nervous prostratto)I. Medicalassistance did not help. " In all," she says, " I have taken six bottles of Nervine, and can truthfully say this is the one medicine that hes efleete,i a cure in my case." Mrs. John Din - woody has been for 40 years a resident of Plesherton, and has reached the ale lotted three -score years and ten. Three years ago her system sustained a sev- ere shock through the death of ds daughter. Nervine was recommended. ended. les of 12 bottles took She perseveringly medicine, with the result that she is to- day again strong and hearty. Itun- dreds of women suffer from impoverish- ed blood and weakened nerves. All vitality," says Mrs. J. b'all's, of Brampton, " seemed to have forsaken my system. I was unable to get re- lief from any source until I commented taking South American Nervine. The results are rp ost satisfactory --greater far than I could have hoped for." Tt came within the way of Mrs. 31.

" I was advised," she says, "to take South American Nervine, and must say I do believe that if I had not done so I would not be alive to- day." Newspaper space is too valuable to permit of further additions to these earnest words of testimony from those who know just what they are talking about. In the common language of the day, they have been there, and are speaking from the heart. The dozen or more witnesses that here spe:tk have their counterparts by' the hundreds, not only in the province of Ontario, but in every other section of the Donut,- ion. Sonti- _r.merican Nervine is based on a " se,entifle principle that makes a cure a certainty, no matter how des- perate the ease may be. It strikes at the nerve centers from which flows the life bi-od of the whole system. It is not a medicine of patchwork, but is complete and comprehensive in its application. C.
