when "AhI When?"

To the Editor Of TAe Star:
A perfect reaction in dress is about to { AXE
place, and an Inauguration of the most rigid
simplicity. Overskirts will no longer be worn,
one skirt being deemed sufficient and the in
eyitable sash will disappear entirely except on
little misses OF three or four years. ChignOns,
instead OF being third larger than the head,
Will be discarded altogether. The natural hair
OF the head only will be worn, and that closely
cropped, or flowing, or arranged in an easy coil
as best suits the features taste of the wearer,
the matter being left entirely to ones fancy,
the edict of fashion decreeing that whatever is
becoming shall not look oHtre. The bunchy
look. long the fashion, is to give way to grace
full, easy fabrics, simply made up, without a
pucker or a frill; and woman is once more

Change of Cattle Feed Necessary.

Man, when confined for any
considerable time to one kind
of food, is more liable to disease
than when his regiments varied.
The disease common among
sailors on long voyages is an il
lustration of this.
Now, what is true of man, is
true of the various species Of do
mesticatcd animals. When
confined for an undue period of
time to one kind Of feed they
sicken and die. For cattle, ma
turc has furnished a Variety
In summer the different kinds
of grasses, with their rich juices,
tempt their tastes and improve
their flesh. Yet even then, we
obtain an argument for a yarie-
ty of feel, from the fact that
cattle, fed with grain or other
vegetables, put on flesh more
rapidly than when they are kept
on grass alone. But in the
Winter our ordinary dry food
is not conducive to growth as
are Summer grasses.

1t is often remarked that APP
pies eaten raw, are the best anti
dvspcptics to be found. Then
is it not an astonishing thing
that with all the apples and
other fruit with which America
abounds, we are almost a naticn
of dyspcptics. But if we con-
slider how nineteenth of the APP
pies are eaten we will cease to
be astonished.
Who ever thinks Of putting
a dish Of apples on the table as
part Of the meal, though the
cellar may be full of rich mel
low fruit? sometimes they may
be brought on with the dessert,
but even that is seldom. They
are sometimes eaten directly at
terward, while the stomach IS
already burdened, or between
meals, when it needs time to
clear itself and have rest, then
fruit is oftcner a curse than a
blessing. The health of the ma
ton will never be improved by
the use Of fruits till we learn to
eat them as a part of our meals.

Good Advice.

You can hardly have pasture SO
small that 1t will not afford hospitality
to weeds and prove source of multi
form intestations. The plants that
should flourish and be ditfused will be
kept down to the earth; those which
should be warred upon and cradicated
will flourish untouched, ripcn their
seed, and dittuse it tar and wide. This
ties, White Daisy, and every plant that
impedes tillage and diminishes crops,
are nourished aud ditfuscd by means
OF pastures.
hold, therefore, that the good farm
er will run moving machine over his
pasture twice each summer-say early
in June, and then late in Juiy--or, il
his lot be too rough for this, will have
il clipped at least once with scythe.
Cutting all manner OF worthless if not
noSious plants in the blossom, will ben
eft the soil which their seedlings would
tax; it will render the eradication OF
weeds from your tillage far easier
task: and it will proven: your being a
nuisance to Your neighbors. L am con-
fident that no one who has formed the
habit OF keeping down the weeds in his
pasture will ever abandon it.

EOucly Truths.
The Montreal Daily News says:

The Montreal Daily News says:
IF a peddler were to pass through
the agricultural parts of Canada with
fabrics or wares of the loom or factory
for sale, he would be met in nile cases
out of ten with the statement: We

the peddler would find ready mark
ct; tor to exchange such products for
manufactures would be the cheapest
for the farmer, although too dear for
him if the purchase were to be in
gold. Now, let factories, with their
thousand mouths to fill, take the place
of the peddler near the farm, and ere.

agriculturist; these latter will ther
have the power to buy in what te
them would be the cheapest market

est.
"Our farmers must buy with what
our country will produce; for this, we
must have home markets: our products
being very heavy or perishable TO
bear transit abroad. What say the
farmers around Sherbrook, Oshawa,
Toronto, Hamilton, Ottawa, or Al,
monte? DO they, or DO they not, find
better markets tor the products OF the
garden and field since the establish.
ment of manufactures in these towns:

and shoemakers, and hatters, and fur
riers, and blacksmiths, and bakers

our buying the products OF these ar
tlsans in foreign markets. because the
gold value would be less, we should
find this, apparently cheap, the dearest
market in the end; for we would be in
the condition England is to-day: our
market supplied by foreign fabrics, be.
cause the price in gold is cheaper; our
workmen out OF employmcnt-more
we arc told, without work than ever
known before; and instead of those
hundreds OF thousands creating wealth,
they are consuming what was boarded
up in more prosperous years.
"But, says the free trader, who is
even ready with his platitudes, let
those millions of displaced artisans
turn to something else What will
they do? Their habits qualify them
only for their own specially: besides,
every industry is more or less depress-
ed, and the operatives in them also
seeking work. Let the theorist show

ton turned out OF one great industry
