Field corn is almost as nice as sweet corn if a little sugar is added as it is frying. Scalloped Corn.—Cut the corn from the nob as fried corn. In the bottom of a baking dish put a layer of corn, season with salt, pepper and bits of butter, then ascant layer of stale bread crumbs rolled very fine and sea- soned with a little salt, pepper and butter; add more corn; then more crumbs, and so on until all is used, having crumbs on top.

This is the season for making rhu- barb jelly, as the early spring rhubarb lacks the quality needed to "jell." Wash the rhubarb well, but donut peel it, as the skin gives the pretty pink color to the prepared plant. Cut it in inch pieces, never minding if it be stringy. Allow half a cupful of water to each pound of rhubarb, and let it stew gen, ly in a granite or porcelain ke,th unt 1 all in shreds. St ain ,urough a cheesecloth or flannel bag. allow a pound of, sugar to each pint of juice. Let the juice boil gently for twenty minutes, add the sugar, stir until all the lumps are dissolved and withdraw the spoon. Turn into glasses which have been rolled in hot water and cover closely when cold and firm. Not only will it be found a "tasty" jelly, but an exquisitely colored one as well, that will add a irosytouch one as well, that will add a rev touch of color to the "pink tea." For apple jelly wash the apples or wipethem with a clean cloth; cut 5n r s; do all bad lata pieces, taktnE, out P not pare or remove the seeds; puts them in a saucepan, nearly covered with water. ;Boil thein until they are re- duced to a pulp. Remove from the fire; pour them into a large cheese- cloth bag, which is better than flan- nel; hang this bag up to drip. The jelly will be clearer if you do not squeeze it. Measure the juice and to ery pint allow an equal quantity of grantee.' ed sugar. Return the juice to the kettle, and when it boils add the sugar slowly. Remove the scum from time to time. Let it boil until it jel- lies, which will be in twenty or thirty minute . Put it in the tumblers, and when cold cover it with two thickness- es of thin paper, each one dipped in white of egg, which will keep the pa - ,pe{; as tight and smooth as a'blad'der. WILL HUNT FOR AMBER. Bine Sald to Be on an island Off the A111slinn toast. an search of a ,mine of amber, which, if found, will make the members of the party independently wealthy, an expedition left SiLka, a few weeks ago for one of the islands off the Alaskan coast. At its head was old Russian, Popoff by name, who for thirty years has been trying to get some one with money to send him in search of the amber mine. this story is an interest- ing one. Some thirty years ago he was a sailor on board a Russian seal- ing vessel, which was wreaked -on one of the small islands off the Alaskan coast. The crew managed to reach another small island in the schoonerls boats, and nearly starved before a Russian war vessel happened along and rescued them. While on the island they found quantities of amber and traced it to a big ledge. The pieces of amber which they had in their possession when taken on board the war ship were taken away by the officers. Pop- off managed to smuggle one small piece away and has hung to it ever Sues. He tried many times to have an ex- pedition outfitted, but never succeed- ed. During the recent mining excite- ment in the north he got as far as SiLka, where he became stranded. „He confided his secret to a few friends and they furnished the money that outfitted the party. Popoff goes with them as guide and expects to be !back in Sitka within six months.

ELLIOTT TELLS HOW TO OBTAIN IT. Ile Iias Been Subject to Feinting Spells and Cramps -Was Gradually growing Weaker and Weaker. From the Echo, Plattsville, Ont. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills have attain- ed a most enviable reputation in this commu.uity. Probably no other medi- cine had such a large and increas- ing inc1eas-ing sale here. The reason is that this medicine cures. Old and young alike aro benefited by its use. Recently we Printed an account of a remarkable cure of a well known lady of this place through the agency of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, and since publishing that we have heard of another similar case. Mr. Wm. Elliott, a farmer living near Bright, is a well known figure there. Although an old man he almost daily walks to the village, a distance of nearly a mile, for his mail. Many years ago he came from Scotland to the farm on which he now lives and cleared it of forest. In conversation with him, he related to an Echo re- porter the following: "I am 78 years of age and strong and healthy for an old man. Mine, has been a vigorous constitution and up till six years ago I hardly knew what it was to have a day's illness. But then my health began to fail. I became subject to cramps in the stomach. I was treat- ed by doctors, but received no benefit. I gradually grew weaker and as 1 was past the threee score and ten, 1 thought my time had come. Next I took fainting fits and often I ,would have to be carried back to the house entirely helpless. The doctors said my trouble was general weakness due to old age and advised me to carry some stimulant with me to use when I felt a faintness coming on, but this I refused to do. I had read in the papers of Dr. William's Pink Pills and thought they would be specially adapted to my case. I tried one' box but they did not seem to help me. In fact I thought I felt worse. I decided to continue them, however, and'after taking four boxes there was a marked improvement. My strength returned and I was no longer troubled with fainting spells. In six months time with this treatment I gained fif- teen pounds, taking in all eight boxes of the Pills. To -day Tam a well man and I owe my complete recovery to Dr. Williams' Pink Pills." These pills cure not by purging the system as do ordinary medicines, but by enriching the blood and strength- ening the nerves. They cure rheuma- tism sciatica, locomotor ataxia, para- lysis, heart trotibles, erysipelas and all forms of weakness. Ladies will find them an unrivalled medicine for . all ailments peculiar to the sex; restoring health and vigor, and bringing a rosy glow to pale and sallow cheeks. There is no other medicine " just as good." See that the full name, Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Palet People is on every package you buy. If your dealer does not have them, they will be sent post paid at 50 cents a box, or six boxes for $2.50, by addressing the Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont., or Schenectady, New York. r I x4,1 ,, • THE DEATH Off' GENERAL GORDON, KHARTOUM, AR TOU M, JANUARV a6, 1885. c ORAVETtla OF TO BEA LONELY SABLE ISLAND AND THE PERILS IT PRESENTS. Fifty Miles of Saud Bars ht the North At- lantic Upon p°u 1Yhlch Illfauy, n Good Ship Has Iteeu Wrecked—Terror 1[tHoltls for Mariners—Its Ghost and Its Pirates. Sable Island proper is about twenty- onei miles long and not more than one mile wide at any part. It consists of two parallel ridges of sand, which rise in a succession of hammocks. for the entire length. It is shaped like a bow, the concave side being toward the land, or distant ooaat of Nova Scotia. The most dangerous features of this dan- gerous island, are its long sandbars, which extend for many miles at eith- er end. These bars are for the most part submerged, only small parts be- ing bare at low tide. The northeast bar is about nineteen miles long. Thus Sa- ble Island, with its bars, forms in rough weather, a line of roaring, surging breakers fifty miles in length, In calmer weather the sea breaks with a low moan on the sandy shores, and the phosphoresdent effects produced on a dark night are weird and beautiful. Between sixty and seventy years ago a small harbor existed here, into which vessels could enter for safety, but in 1820 one of the terrific gales that sweep this coast tore away the sand at one part of the island and threw it up at another, completely blocking the en- trance to the•b r a and imprisoning r o n mrisoniu P g forever several small vessels which had taken refuge there from the storm, and the remains of which may be still diseerned, partly buried in the sand. The island itself is simply a vast ac- cumulation of coarse, gray sand. It is ABSOLUTELY TREELESS, not even a large shrub being produc- ed, but in the valley between the two parallel ridges many wild flowers abound, as well as some of the small fruits indigenous to 1 hese latitudes, and a long, coarse, grass grows abun- dantly. Some authorities contend that the island owes its origin to the vary- ing currents and eddies that. piny about this part of the north Atlantic, and make the sands their spoil, and that at some future time the sands will shift and leave no part of the island above water. Then indeed would this submerged sandbank prove a greater menace than now, for no beacon light to warn the mariner, could stand on the shoals, Whether this theory is cor- rect or not only time can tell, but truth it is that the sea is gradually encroaching on the outer side, the lighthouse at this eud having had to be removed three times within recent years. Actual measurements shogw that more than one mile of the islalhd has disappeared on the seaward side within a few years. On the other hand, the sand torn away here is thrown up at some other point, and a change in the formation of the island is constantly taking place, and this may continue to, be the case instead of actual disap- pearance. The island has decreased in size from forty miles in length and two and a half is width to its present dimensions since a record has been kept. The astounding statements have been officially made that eleven miles of the west end disappeared in the years between 1803 and 1833, thirty- three hirtythree feet of the entire width during a few hours, and in a severe storm a section forty-eight feet by a quarter of a mile sunk under water in a single night. This• last movement caused a hasty removal of one of the lighthouses to a point more distant from the sea. Of course Sable Island has its ghost story. A narrow lake about eight miles long extends through the centre of the island, and the legend of the 'Lady of the Lake is related to all who visit here. The story is in effect that Lhe wife of an officer in the Halifax garrison was coming out to join her husband. She was a passenger by the ill-fated transport Princess Amelia, and though safely brought to land at Sable Island, SHE WAS MURDERED by the wreckers there, 'who did this to possess themselves of some valuable rings which she wore. The finger on which the rings were worn was sever- ed from the hand by these pirates. This lady, so the legend runs, appears fre- quently in the vicinity of the lake, even to the present time, and holds up her bleeding hand to view, showing where the third finger is missing. Before a storm' it is her custom to walk on the beach, and many a patrolman will tell you he has seen this sad lady, her gar- ments dripping with sea water, and her long, dark hair falling wet over her ehoulders. Those who have watch- ed her movements affirm that when startled she disappears in the waters of the lake, into which her body is sup- posed to have been thrown by the pir- atical wreckers. Be this as it may, it is a well -authenticated fact 1. hat a ring belonging to the wife of an of- ficer who was coming out on the trans- port named to join her husband, and was drowned at Sable Island, was af- terward found in asmall jewelry store in Halifax, and recognized by a friend of the family, it being of peculiar workmanship. Some inquiry was made and the ring traced to a man residing et a district whence the wreckers were supposed to have oome, but years had elapsed, no nut bent io information could be gleaned, and the matter was allow- ed to drop. Very curious effects aro produced hero by the constantly flying send. All window glass and anything of that na- ture becomes quickly eroded, in very fantnst is shapes, sometimes producing a beautiful effect. The natural history of the island is peculiar. Some gruesome tales are told of the wild hogs which previous to 1814 roamed al large among the sand dunes. They were then destroyed by order of the authorities, on necount of their propensity to hunt for bodies in the sand, or attnek those found in the land -wash. A number of ENGLISH RABBITS worn then brought here, and soon be - name rather troublesome by reason of their burrowing holes in the sand which were dangerous for the ponies' feet. One day some rats landed from the wreck of a Norwegian ship. Their colony increased and they soon exter- minated, the rabbits, The rate commit- ted such depredations among t.hoGov- ernment stores that a detachment of oats was taken down from Halifax. The oats in their turn destroyed the rats, but themselves became so numerous that dogs and shotguns had to be brought into use to clear them out. The dogs were then withdrawn and the horees remain, sole lords of the isle. When a number of ponies are to be captured a large herd to driven into pound by men on horseback. They are lassoed, thrown down and bound then placed on stretchers and put into the surf beats, taken off, and placed en board the steamer for conveyance to Halifax to be sold. 1the night IR illi interesting one, and th''e Man have bo - We Know What Hood's Sarsaparilla Boos When the Blood is impure.

Places of shelter have been erected for these horses, but the hardy little animals refuse to en- ter them, preferring the open air, even in severe winter weather. No doubt generations of exposure have inured them to the rigors of this northern climate and they enjoy the freedom, of their island home. When a storm is approaching the horses have a pecul- iar habit of forming themselves into a triangle with the old veterans on the outside and the younger members of the herd in the middle. Thus, formed into a solid body, they brave the ele- ments and so great is the Treat gen- erated that clouds of steam rise into the air above them and may be dis- cerned during a pouring rain. When the ponies need water they have only to scrape with their feet in the soft sand. It is a curious circumstance that Sable Island is like an immense sponge and retains the rain water. Fresh water can be produced almost anywhere by digging not more than two feet beloyv the surface. The view as you approach the island is that of a number of LOW-LYING SANDY HILLOCKS, with, the sea rolling in upon the shelv- ing beach. A close view cannot be ob- tained from the deck of the steamer, as no vessel dare approach within a mile, even in smooth weather, and frequently happens that the Govern- ment steamer, after reachidg the is- land, has to run to the nearest port on the mainland for shelter, without ef- fecting a landing, owing to the trem- endous sea prevailing. At such times a conversation is carried on with the island by means of Marryatt's come of signals. A feeling of desolation must certainly arise in the hearts of the is- land dwellers when they see the steam- er with tidings from the world and their supplies and necessaries so near and yet unable to reach them. In such cases the steamer usually takes refuge in the port of Canso or Whitehead, about eighty miles distant, and there rides out the storm, after which she returns to the island. It occasionally happens in very calm summer weath- er that the ship will anchor for the night about a mile off, and then ,dis- charge her cargo by 'daylight, but this can only be done when the weather promises most favorably, as no ship cares to be caught in this locality if there are any indications of an ap- proaching storm. The name of Sable Island has been frequently mentioned throughout the civilized world during the past few months, owing to the loss of the French ship La Bourgogne. Although the wreck occurred about sixty miles from its shores, the island was looked upon as a likely place to make search for the bodies of the victims. Prof. Alex- ander Graham Bell of telephone fame visited the island in search of the re- mains of some friends of his who were victims of the Bourgogne disaster, but nothing human has fib far been cast up on these sandy shores. Sable Island has' given up many dead from the sea, but the disaster to this French ship appears to have been too far distant for any trace to be found there.. REGIMENTAL DOGS. Bob of the Royal Berkshires, and Jack of the Scots Guards. Army pets whose sterling worth is appreciated by their masters and their masters' cronies are numberless, but clogs who rise to the position of "regi- mental pets," who become part and parcel of the regiment at home and in action, and -who receive official recog- nition, are comparatively few. Bob was the regimental pet of the 2d Battalion Royal Berkshires, and a soldier dog to the back bone. He ac- companied his regiment to Afghan- istan, and went through, at the battle of Maiwand, one of the most terrific day's fighting that has been known during the past generation. Man after man was cut down, but Bob would not be denied bis share in the fray. He kept on running to the front, barking fireooly atthe enemy, until at length a bullet laid him low. The wound was serious enough, as it Lore nearly all the skin off his back, but be recovered, and once again ac- companied his old carps into action. When the regiment returned to England the next year, Bob received great honor at the hands of thelqueen, her majesty not only decorating him with the medal for the campaign, but tying it round his nock with her own hands when the regiment paraded be- fore her at Osborne House. Like many another warrior, Bob did not live long to enjoy the blessings of peace. In a little more than a year he was run over and killed in the Isle of Wight. "Regimental Jack," the Soots Guards' dog, took part in the hottest fights in the Crimea. He became the pet of the Guards in a curious fashion. One cold winter's night he was found by a sentry in St. James's Palace Gardens. Rome one had been brutal- ly ill-treating him, and had ended by flinging him over the high wall. In befriending the poor animal, the sentry left his post, and this derelic- tion of duty being discovered, he was placed in the guard -room under ar- rosq:. The dog followed his protector, and on hearing the story, the officer was so touched by the dog's gratitude that tho prisoner was released, with the proverbial caution. Henceforth Jack's fortunes were to be bound up with those of the Scots Guards. When the regiment wont to the Crimea, he very soon' showed the stuff of which he was made. (At Alma ho saved the life of his protector, and ,afterward parried a flask of brandy to the wounded. tAt Inkerman'ho was wounded In the right toot, after literally performing prodigies of valor. iW ith his two -log. sed eomrados he charged, and with tooth and nail went for his country's 61119211. 01. tight ever, the 'faithful animal went joyfully to find Vs prateetorr, Fiud him be did,,but itIII#Atll4opg the slain, and Jack wits diseR►nSo1ate.

It was he who sounded the charge of the "Heavies" on that glorious morning when a mere lytndful of General Scarlett's men mow- ed down " the o'er lapping Russian lines," after the manner of a reaping machine. In an interview with a re- presentative of the London Daily Chronicle, Loudon spoke as follows of the awful collision between Gen. Scar- lett's three hundred and the Russian line of thousands: " Well, I sounded the charge, and we then went for the Russians like tigers. I was stirrup to stirrup with the gallant General Scarlett when we plunged into the enemy's line. It was a. neck and a neck race between four of us; to see which would have the honor of the first onslaught. But goodness only knows who unhorsed the first of the enemy. Iknow that General Scar- lett was on a ,very speedy charger, and I believe he won a very exciting race by decapitating the first Rus- sian. A moment after we crashed through the line I dropped my bugle by my side, and then I had to use the sword in earnest. I was wounded over the temple and in the right leg, which now troubles me periodically. But I did not know I was wounded at the time. For a few minutes we were scattered like a flock of sheep, still we mowed away, now to the right, again to the left, twisting and turn- ing, thrusting and slashing. We made several avenues in the enemies' lines, through which we rode to the rally. "Soon after the rally we heard that the " Lights' were going to have a go., "1 suppose you had a good view of the charge?" Oh, yes, until the 'Lights' disap- peared into a gulf of smoke from the Russian cannon. I was alongside Gen. Scarlett when he gave the order. 'The Heavy Brigade will support the Lights!' These were, I believe, his ex- act words. The Lights had then brok- en into a gallop and were close to ' The 'Valley of Death.' I sounded and soon myself and General Scarlett were some thirty yards in front of the ad- vancing squadrons. "Suddenly be turned around in the saddle, and exclaimed, " Why, the Heavies are retiring I Have you sound- ed Retire?' He was very much excited, I replied, 'No, General.' We galloped back and met Lord Lucan. It was he who had stopped the Heavies. As near as 1 can recollect Lord Lucan said to General Scarlett. 'We've lost the Light Brigade and we must save the Heavies,'" Had the Heavies not been stopped by Lord Lucan what do you think would have been the upshot?" " Oh, undoubtedly, we would have shared the same fate as the Lights, bat we would not ,have troubled about that. We were just in the humour for another charge." Loudon holds several letters from famous warriors." "Every 25th of October," said he proudly, " until the day of his death I was always reminded of the charge by a letter from the gallent General Scar- lett. When General Scarlett died I lost the best friend I ever had. I have not a friend left now, and here I am at last in St. Pancras work- house 1" sighed the old fellow.
