Abonf RIli0usness.

A clergyman comes In to.see me dozen times
year about his biliousness. Biliousness is
common malady. know great many people
who are bilious. They have no dyspepsia, they
never had symptom Of dyspepsia in their lives;
they are only bilious.
Now this word biliousness is q sort of respect
able cover for piggishness. People are not bill
ious who eat what they should.
{ Reader, are you bilious? (Rather q hard
question after the above hard world. Let me
prescribe for you. III you follow nv prescrip-
ton, and don't get we'll, write me, and in the
next edition will announce my error.
First, on getting up and going to bed drink
plenty OF cold water.
Eat for breakfast, until the bilious attack
passes, little stale bread, say ono slice, and
Q piece as large as your hand Of boiled lean
beef or mutton. 1.-THE weather is warm, take
instead . little cracked wheat or oatmeal por-
ridge.
For dinner take about the same thing. Go
without your supper.
Exercise freely In the open air producing
perspiration, once or twice day. In Q few
days your biliousness Is all gone. This result
will come. even though the biliousness lie one
OF the Spring sort, and one with which you
have, from year to year, been much afiicted.
Herb drinks, bitter drinks, lager beer, ale
whiskey and dozen other Spring medicines
are simply barbarsus.-Dio Learis-Talks about
Peoples Stomdcts.

ONE OF WINTERS you are
member Of that mysterious circle called $50
spent in doing your duty, standing In crowd
with white kid gloves on your hands and weari-
ness in your heart. We call this enjoying our
selves. You know al about IL. Your shoes
pinch you, but you cannot sit down. Your
companion bores you, but you must listen and
smile, and smile and listen. If you try to move
about, you tread on thirteen hideous dress
trains, that drag themselves like half dead
boa constructors at the heels of their fair pos
SCISSORS. You eat cake and drink coffee, though
you know it will give you a headache in the
a splendid time" though you are conscious
that you are telling a lie, for which your con-
science, if you have one, will reproach you
ing ourselves into tho belief that the torture
Of q stand-up dress party is pleasure, is the

A PARIsIAN EIPHRrsNcR.-After my meager
dinner, was strolliDg along the quays near the
river. when L saw Q woman leaning over the
parapet. She turned Is was passing her and
the lamp from the opposite gate of the Tuille-
ries shone in her face. 1t was honest and
homely, but % careworn, so utterly hopeless,

tired and hungry" she replied; "I have been
Walking all day, and have not eaten since yes
terday." took her to . cafe and gave her some
bread and coffee, and then she told me her
story. She was peasant girl from Franche
Comte, and had come to Paris, where she had
gone into service. But she had soon tired Of do
mestic servitude, and for the last year she had
supported herself by sewing waistcoats in a
great wholesale establishment. At the com
mencement Of the siege she had been discharged,
and for some days found employment in gov
eminent Workshop, but for the last three weeks
abe had wandered here and there vainly asking
for work. One by one she had sold every arti-
Gle or dress she possessed, except the scanty
garments she wore, and she had lived upon bread
and celery. The day before she had spent her
last sou, and when saw her she had come do wn
to the river, starving and exhausted to throw
herself into il. "But the water looked so col 1,
did not dare, !" she said.-Letter from Paris.

Staining Common Wood.

There are two ways OF staining common wood
to walnet or any other color-one with water
color and one with OIL we prefer the latter. To
stain with water-color. a decoction is made Of
Fernambuck, Brazil, or any other dyewood or
bark Of sufficient strength to give the desired
shade, according to the nature of the wood to be
stained and that you wish to initiate. 1t is put
on with brush. To stain with OIL, you mix raw
inseed oil with either Vandyke brown, raw or
burnt lumber, raw or burnt sienna, or mixture
Of these or other paints Of the desired shade
and put IL on thin with a brush also. After
drying, yeu put on one or two coats Of some
brown transparent varnish, and this finishes the
job. Inregard to the staining with water color,
you have to oil 1t when dry, and after the oil is
dry, you put on your yarnish. In regard to
sizing, this is not 10 be recommended
when wood is stained and not painted.
fon must take into account that ST.
Zing Is only done to save the more expensive
oil, as it prevents it from penetrating the wood,
and single coat Of paint will then have the
same effect as three coats without size; but 1t is
not so durable, as it is apt to peel of; the coat
Of paint not being united with the wood, but
separated from it by layer of glue, which by
which by moisture Will detaeh itself The
size used is simply common glue, dissolved In
plenty or water.-kanlfactur and Builder.
