A pound of highly refined sugar is equal to considerably more than the same .quantity of raw sugar, because in - the former, water and foreign natter have been removed. The quality of any sugar depends upon the degree of refinement to which it is subjected. The art of refinement has reached its highest standard in St. Lawrence Sugar. St. Lawrence represents the finest quality sugar that scientific refining, combined with the choicest raw materials can produce. - While the price of lower grade sugars appears cheaper than SL Lawrence Sugar, they are in reality more expensive because a much larger quantity of inferior sugar is required for sweetening. FMEG H1H The idea that any sugar is exposed to dirt, dust or other impurities and is scooped by soiled hands out of a dirty bin is repulsive to the fastidious housekeeper. To avoid this, buy St. Lawrence Sugar in sealed cartons or sealed bags, which, from the time it is manufactured in the Refinery and until the package or bag is opened by the consumer, never comes in contact with human hands, nor is exposed to the air. It is to yoni.anterest to insist upon having St Lta 'rence Sugar either in 2 9x,5i:lb. staled carton packages or in .0, 20, 25, 50 or 100 lb. sealed bags, which may be had either in fine, medium or coarse grain.

Two things are essential to ier- feot'heaaing--a free passageof the sound waves to the inter nal ear, 43/.61 a healthy condition of the ala- paratus that perceives sound in the internarl ear and in the brain. Dia - ease, of 'the auditory nerve , at any pert of its 'course from itsorigin in the bran to its termination in the internal ear causes the most seri- ous, and fortunately the least "'fre- quent, form ofdeafness. Disease of the auditory nerve',ean ?be camas ed by a chrome inflammation that has extended inward from the.mi'd- dle ear; by exhaustion of the nerve by excessive noise; as in the case of (boiler -makers, of sailors during a battle at sea, or of artillerymen ; by constitutional . disease ; or by some affection of the brain itself. The other form of deafness—that caused by interference with the passage of the sound waves to the auditory nerve—is often curable; at least, the hearing can usually be helped by some form of apparatus. One cause of -deafness is an aceib mulation of wax in the ear ; another is the 'blocking of the Eustachian tube, Which admits air to the niid- dle ear from the throat, The aurist can often remove the wax or the ob- struction in the tube, and so 're- store the hearing. Catarrhal deafness, which is ow- ing to the spread of chronic in- flammattion, from the mucous mem- 'Irene of the nose or throat, is more intractable. In such cases the joints of the chain of little bones that conduct the :sound waves from the drum membrane to the internal ear become so •stiffened that They do not perform their office perfect- ly. Even then the aurist can some- times reduce the inflammation, and restore suppleness to the little joints; even zf he cannot cure the deafness, i' he can arrest its pro- gress. In most cases of chronic and in- curable deafness, some form of ap- paratus will help the trouble. A small and inconspicuous horn, a speaking tube, a San shaped piece of gutta-per•e1aa held against the teeth to transmit the sound waves through the bones of the head, or an electrical appliance that _ works on the principle of the telephone are all used. Different forms of apparatus suit different cases, and sometimes it is only by repeated trials that the patient can select the aid that gives him most help. The telephone like apparatus is, usually most helpful in a public plaee, .although for conversation (provided your upper teeth are your own) the gutta-percha fan is very useful. ---Youth's Companion. id r r-7-74 WEL alittle bit of cream and finally a well -beaten egg.

Iiouseholtt Hints. A hinged shelf is :a great comfort to the housekeeper in the kitchen. Turpentine will be found very good for cleaning an enamel or por- celain tub. The points of economy in clothing are careful buyingr mending and laundering. If you mix plaster of Paris with vinegar, instead of water, it will be like putty and will harden slowly. The cloudy look on apiano .can be removed by a cloth dipped in soap and water wrung very dry. Whitewatsh made of white lime and water only is the best known agency for keeping the air of the cellar sweet and wholesome. Good crackers to serve with salad are made with a half-inch cube of cheese set in the centre of each cracker, which then is browned in the oven. When cooking asparagus in bro- ken pieces, it is a good idea to add the tender tips after the tougher pieces have begun to come tender. With salmon, cut big encumbers into three-inch lengths and scoop out the 'centre. Mix minded canned salmon with .mayonnaise dressing and pile it into the eueumber boats. To elean furniture thoroughly and produce a fine lustre, wring a cloth out in a pail ,of water in which a teaspoonful of coal oil has been Mixed. Wipe the furniture with the cloth wrung very dry. Just as a small ,scoop or tin cup ishandyinthe flour ea n, -so a tea- spoon , ' spo�on is ,han�clya kept in th:e tea be of soda jar. Buy cheap tin spoons and bend back- the handles so that they will readily slip ,into the jar or box. ' • Use neatsfoot oil to clean leather by adding an equal quantity of bees- wax and melt over hot water 'with twice the quantity of turpentine. Apply soft, but not liquid, putting on enough to be -absorbed. . In stitching steams cut•on the bias, • always begin at the widest : end. Keep the garment as flat as possi- ble, find do not let it fall over ;the edge of the table. This prevents dragging. Also. use as +sma11 a stitch as the thickness of the material will allow. When canning peaches, pour boil- ing water over them and the skins will'slip off easily, leaving the fruit smooth and perfe:cti This method can also be used. with tomatoes. Chemists say it takes more than twice as much sugar to sweeten pre- serves, sauce, etc., if put in when they begin to cook, as, it dues to sweeten after the food is cooked. • • Have all dishes for the refrigera- tor of white enamelled ware of var- ious shapes and sizes and keep them just for holding left -overs. There will be no broken china if this plan is followed. Flies can be' driven out of the house by_ making the rooms very dark, excepting one crack of 'light leading into the out-of-doors. The flies will be attracted to the light and crawl out. Magistrate—'"Can't you and your husband live together without fight- ing' " Mrs. O' 01arty—"No, yet Honor, not happily."
