HUMAN On the Altar of Diabetes, Saved by Dodd's Kidney Pills, Only. . Hardly a family ina the country is free from Diabetes. Great thirst, failing sight, numbness in the thighs, bleeding gums, swollen ankles, ema- elation, nervousness, pale = or turbid °urine, loss of sexual power, decaying teeth, pains in the loins or small of the back, are all positive signs that Diabetes is in the system. Do you kriow how it ends? IN DEATH. A premature, horrible, agon- ized,- pitiful death. The victim has no pe.acc, no ease in lire. -His days are filled with tortures. is nights are waking dreams of agony. He longs to die, yet fears the terrors of his end. He dies, a bloated, fetid, repulsive mass of corruption. That is the only end of unchecked Diabetes. Dodd's Kidney Pills willcure it. They drive it out 9f,the system thoroughly, create new clean blood, rebuild the diseased kidneys, and restore robust health. reme6morememmoimn Things Worth = Knowing.

Silk and thread gloves are beat washed by placing them on the hands and washing them in borax water or white eastile soap- suds, just as if bathing the hands.

Me ECM'S System Renovator el The fee system is =more rigidly enforced a big passenger steamship than anywhere e. It is one of the places where servants mand their fees, and tell you the amount t at they think you ought to give them. hile the waiters at restaurants and hotels expect fees for their services, and will hint and perhaps make it embarrassing for you if they are not paid, they have not gone so - far as to tell you that they want a fee and prescribe the amount. Even portera do not do that. Then come around, brush your coat and hat and run the whisk over. your trousers, but it is seldom that they ask you for any money, let alone a specified amount. On passenger steamers the stewards re- gard their fees as a matter of right as much as the steamship company regard their pas- senger money. It is possible to avoid pay- ing the fees as they are not collectable 'by law, but the passenger who: does -not pay them will have difficulty in.getting Ms lug- gage off the steamer, and it would be well for him to keep off steamers afterwards where any of the servante of that boat are employed. The stewards seem to have some sort of fee guide -book or black -list of pas- sengers who do not give fees,- so that they can make them suffer on future trips. Cer- tain fees are regularly fixed and expected, irrespective of the cost of state -room or the i style n which a man travels, while certain other fees depend on the style. For an'or- dinary passenger there are fees to be eiven to the state room steward, the saloon stew ard, the deck steward, the smoking -room stewaid, and the barber and bathman. The fee to the steward who looks after your state -room is about ten shillings. The stew- ard who waits on 3 on at the table should receive the same fee. The deck steward, for bringing you an occsaional drink and looking after your !steamer chair and rugs, expeots five shillings, but he will take half a crown. The smoking -room steward ex- pecte five shillings, and, if you are in the smoking -room a great part of the trip, he feels that he is entitled to as much as the state -room steward or your waiter. A bath every day on the passage can be had for a five shilling fee. These rates are fixed by long custom. The stewarts can tell whether or not a man un- derstands the rates and if he will pay at the end of the trip. If they do not think that he will they give him hints from time to time, until they get some assurance oia his part that he recognizes the obligation of the fee system. If they think he will not pay, he will have a hard time of it. He will find the state room is not well made up, that .he does not care when he is sea- sick, that he is served last at the table, and does not get the things that he ordered,that the wrong drinks and cigars come to him in the smoking -room, and that his steamer chair is constantly lost. The servants are as effective as seasickness in making a man's trip miserable. Those fees are not to be paid until the last da,y of the trip. The servants very speedily find out at which place a passenger is to get off. If making his firat trip they are pretty sure to know it. It is advisable for him in that case to tell his state -room steward and his waiter that he will give them the regular fee at the end of the trip if they serve him properly, and that, if they do not 'they will not get a penny. If he tells them this in the proper way, he will get as good service as the man who is well known. The last morning ,of the trip the state- room steward comes round for Ins fee. If the passenger does not offer it the steward suggests that it is customary to give him a fee, and that the regular fee is half a sover- eign. If anything less is offered him, and he thinks he eau get half a sovereign by re- -AND OTHER-- TESTE D - REMEDIES. _ A specific and antidote for Impure, Weak and Im poverished Blood, Dyepepsia, Sleeplessness, Palpate - ton of the Heart, Liver Coe -plata, Neuralgia, LOSS of Memory, Bronchitis, Consumption, Gall Stones, Jaundice, KI osey and thenary Diseases, St. Vitus' Dance, Female Inegularides and General Debility.

" Aberdeen is the place where all combs Worthy Of the name are manufactured. Of course, = there are inferior ones' to be had elsewhere, such as the miserable. specimen you have upstairs harish and hrittle, and able to stand nowhere at all. But they are beneath notice. The finer kinds made in Aberdeen are of tortoise shell (from the shell of tha big tortoise found along the shores of the Indian Ocean), but they can -be so exactly imitated in horn by the clever work -people that it =would take very sharp sight to detect the difference. The way this is done is by dipping the horn into nit- ric acid, which stains it yellow at 'once, and then the darker stain is made b= red oxide of lead, which women pour over the yellow horn in beautiful wavy lines. But perhaps you would like to hear how the horn for ordinary combs is prepared ?"

It owes man more than the sum of all of them, it owes man only justice.' . And the civilization or the government that wilfully' or blind- ly ignores that solemn obligation plots its own destruction. A man. owes the world just what the world .owes him, justice. Governments, societies, organ- ized reformers nor schools ea ever set- tlet or - adjust these conditio s between individuals by the inculcation f the moral principle alone. They can do that by mak- ing every man awake to the sense of his re- lation to man as a brother, not as a grasper, as a helper, not RS an oppressor.

In an American school for girls in one of the cities of Asia Minor, after a - recent lecture by the teacher on hygiene and drew, the following synopsis of the lecture's salient points was elven by a young Greek girl, who had evidently grasped the spirit if not the letter of the law : "Usually the dresses must be vasashape- ly, so that the organs of the body may be able te move freely. The new fashions usuallY are very hurtful, because the female gender desires to make her belt thin. They tighten the corset so that the organs of the body are in anxiety, and the circulation of the blood is in great trouble, arid' for this reason very many persons have lost their lives in their younger age, beempie very many sicknesses come forward for this reason. Also the stockings and slices must be vast, so that the circulation 6f the blood may be free round the body: We must not keep clean only our body, = but our mind, heart, dresses, everything." .

Despite the somewhat prevalent idea that speculation is the royal road to wealth, the truth is still as evident as eveithat honest industry is the only way t� Success. Lazi- ness never accomplishes greatresults in any direction. The Mioawbers, who wait for something to turn up, rarely get beyond the waiting period. It is true all along the way of life honeat industry alone will win. It is so with education in childhood. The mere ability to slip through examinations with little study does not make the success- ful scholar. It is only the plodding, hard- working student who really succeeds. A chance success in speculation = only proves the rule in business life. To offset this are the thousand failures. • est value of the waste basket ie that it fur-. nishes a true index to the character of the "paper. A truer estimate to the character of a'newspaper can be gathered from an ex-, amination of the waste basket than can be learned from the files of the paper. It re- sembles human life in its composite charac- ter. It is a jumble of wisdom and folly, of sense and noneense, of prose and poetry. The names thet go down into it represent all social, moral and intellectual grades and all phases of human = character. Great is the waste basket and great the work it does for humanity. • Preserving Flowers. A novel way of preserving flowers, leaves and vines has been discovered by. some in- genious English girls. The !peens -lens are carefully dried up to a certain point, and are then laid upon sheets of soft paper !something like our blotting paper. This is moistened a sheet of waxed paper placed over it, then another sheet of the soft paper, a layer of leaves and flowers, a sheet of wax paper, 'and so on. The whole series is then placed under a board, on which is put :a very heavy weight, or which is placed in a powerful press. The pressure crushes the flowers into the soft, wet paper, and asthis dries it sets, fastening the specimen- very securely. Pat's Certificate. In a factory where the men are in the habit of absenting themselves very often they exciieed themselves by saying they were sick. In order to put down such a troublesome practice a rule was made that all -absentees were to produce a doctor's certificate. An Irishman named Pat, being absent one day, was told to get the neces- sary proof, and having complied with the rule was therefore excused. Being absent, however, on another occasion and being told to bring another certificate,,' he pro- dueed the one used on the previoui occasion. The manager, looking at it, said: "Why, Pat, this is the old tertificete." "Sure, I know that," iseid Pat, "an' isn't it the ould complaint ?" • The Bicycle and Big Feet. It is proved beyond doubt, that riding a wheel will in one season cause the foot to grow one to one and a half inches larger. Hundreds of bicycle ridere have ascertained this. With men it doe' not make any dif- ference, for, except in very rare eases, men do not care as much for the size of their feet as they do for comfort. WitJi the ladies, however, it is quite another ting. They wear bioyele.shoes for riding,'but, find to their sorrow that in a season or so they can- not wear the same size shoe that they wore before they developed their feet. Uycling not: only tends to lengthen the foot, but also to widen it. The shoe manufacturers, as a result, turn out many shoes for ladies of larger sizes than formerly: It is the old story coming true in another way, -those who dance niust pay the fiddler. • . Occupation.. Man must have occupation or be miser- -able. Toil is the price of sleep, and appe- e, of health and enjoyment. The very oessity which overcomes our natural sloth Is a blessing. The whole world does not contain even a brier or thorn which nature could have spared. We are happier with the sterility which we overcome by industry than we could hate been with spontaneous plenty and unbounded profusion. The body and mind are improved by the toil that fatigues them. The toil is a thousand times rewarded by the pleasure which it bestows. Its enjoyments are peculiar. No wealth can purchase them, no. indolence can taste them. The Y flow only from exertions which repay the laborer. • Forgot His Sermon. One Sunday not very long ago the minie- ter of a small country parish church in Scot- land had the misfortune to forget his ser- mon, and did not discover -his loss till he reached the church. The congregation be- ing already assembled, he was in, a sorry plight. Suddenly an idea struck him. He sent for John, the beadle, and anstructed him to give -out the 119th Psalm (containing 176 verses), while he hurried home for his sermon. On his journey back to church he saw the faithful beadle standing at the church door waving his arms and shouting on him. On reaching the door he exclaim- ed" Are they always singing yet, John ?" "Ay, sir," replied John, "they're at it yet, but they're cheepin' like aparries." • . " Pat " in Kilts. At the final relief of Lucknow, as Sir Colin Campbell was riding into the city with his staff, he passed a stalwart " Hielander " on sentry. Reining up,the general thus apostrophised the kilted warrior: " Weel, my brave mon, the Scotehmen did weel to -day, and we're proud o' our aountry."
