Iset'Ui information.

Roasted coffee is one of the most
powerful means, NOT only of rendering
animal vegetable efluvia innoeuous,
but of actually destroying them. A
room III which meat in an advanced
degree of decomposition has been kept
for some time, was instantly deprived
of all smell by an open coffee rooster
being carried through it containing a
pound OF coffee newly roasted. In an
other room the effiuvia accustomed by
the cleaning out of a cesspool, so that
sulphureted hydrogen and ammonia
could be clearly detected, was COM
pletely removed within half a minute
on the employment of three ounces of
fresh coffee. The best mode of using
it as q dislnfectant is to dry the raw
bean, pound it in a mortar, and then
roast the powder on a moderately heat
ed iron plate until it assumes a dark
brown hue, when it is ready for use 1t
must, however, be remembered that
the coffee. to be efectual, should be
perfectly pure. Adulterated rubbish
will only make matters worse. -Ho-

IL is agreeabIeto hear our Life Insur-
ance Companies well spoken Of, but we feel
much pride in the remarks of the New York
Insurance Commissioner, regarding our most
enterprising company-The Equitable Life As
sulance Company-wh he says marks
and distinguishes the commencement of the
recent astounding progress IN the business of
Life Insurance."
/ The Equitable Society took its position at the
head of our companies some three or four years
ago, and has since annually transacted more
new business than any other company in the
world. 1t has no longer an equal competitor.
It's proud position is due not only to It's use
tulness, security, wealth, and liberality but
to the good will Of the people, whose prefer
cnces it has gained because it has answered
their requirements most completely in every
thing that pertains to Life Insurance.-N. 7.

4 Memorial Gift.

The round of gifts for holiday sea-
son is soon exhausted. Books, and Jewels,
and tritles repeat themselves with the return
of every Christmas and New Year, so that we
are weary of choosing from them. We want
to find a remembrance for our friends having
something more than that temporary value
which these customary gifts uossess.
There is q new gift more graceful and useful
than anything that is to be found in the shops.
Its possession is not only benefit for life, but
it keeps it's giver in perpetual remembrance.
1t is a Life Insurance policy, presented on New
Years day by the husband to his wife by the
parish to their pastor.
Can there be a better commemoration OF
this joyful season of the year than such gift ?
1t will bear fruit long after all other offerings
are lost and forgotten, and it is one which the
giyer can never regret.-N. Y. Evangelist.

The cascarilleros or bark hunters are
