CURE FOR CoNsUNRTIoS.-A cores

er of a well-known plant:

monary consumption. 1t has cured a
number of cases after they had COM
menced bleeding at the lungs, and the
hectic flush was already on the cheek.
After trying this remedy to my satisfac-
ton, / haze thought that philanthropy
required that should let it be known to
the world. 1t is the common mullen,
stepped strong and sweetened with cof-
fee sugar, and drank freely. The herb
should he gathered before the end of
July, if convenient. Young or old plants
are good dried in the shade, and kept in
clean paper bags. The remedy must be
continued from four to six months, ac-
cording 10 the nature of the disease. 1t
is good for blood vessels also. II strength
ems the system and builds up, instead of
taking away strength. 1t makes good
blood and takes inflammation from the
lungs. It is the wish of the writer that
every periodical in the United States,
Canada and Europe should publish this
recipe for the benefit of the human fam
ily. Lay this by and keep in the house
for ready use.

SaXOn's the Thing.

eve are not attracted" says the Ar
cddian, to patrcnize barber because
he STYLES himself 'tonsorial artist, and
his place of work hair dressing studio;'
but we rather bear him a g1udge for
trying to impose on us with such vile
rhetoric, and congratulate ourselves as
we cross to the opposite side of the
street. that verbal hourishes upon the
whole are less dangerous than hourishes
with a razor. But it is not to be doubted
that there are some people who think
more highly of themselves because they
get their boards cut in a studio by an
artist; and it is to this shoddy element
that the 'tonsorial artist, the fine art
tailors. and the other nondescript hum
bugs of the period appeal. Their Gus
toners are the people who live in resi-
dences,' worship the golden calf in tab
ernacles, do their shopping in 'empori-
ums.' cool their wine in refrigerators,
and extend invitations, forsooth, as If
invitations were things to be held out at

DIR. Livingstone,s New Book.

This work has been looked for with the
greatest interest. Up to the day Of his death
the doctor kept his records-during the last
few weeks writing them with the red juice of
berries across the face of old newspapers. These
records were in part brought home, closely
sealed, by STANLEY. The remainder were
brought by his faithful attendants, who, at his
death, embalmed his body, transported 1t hun
dreds of miles on their shoulders, and accom-
panied it TO England 1t is the most wonderful
book of the age, and we are glad TO know that

Yesterday as policeman was strolling
past house on Fort street, east, awoman
a wear or two over 40, having her sleeves
rolled up and her hands. covered with
-four, ran out to the gate and called to
him. -. Il - I. + ~ =, ...r.-
"It's little dehcate,' she said as she
leaned over the gate and tried to blush,
"but Tn person that knows my rights,
and besides, I'm all alone in the world
and no one to advise me"
"Speak your mind freely, madam, ="
replied the officer, rs he tapped on the
pickets with his baton.
"You know all about the law, don't
your" she inquired.
Everything, madam. can tell you
how to go to work in an admiralty case,
and bring you from that down through
divorce. bankruptcy, arson, burglary,
false pretenses, hitching a horse TO a
shade tree and getting intoxicated"
" It's little delicate" she softly said,
as she rubbed the -four off her hands,
"but, as L said before, Ina all alone"
Trust me, madam-repose conf
dence in me-" he replied, swelling out
his chest.
Well, s'posen you We're widow"
"Yes, madam"
"And s'posen one of the boarders
gave you breast-pin r.
''I see, madam. .
"And s'poseu he smiled Mt yorl, and
sent You poetry, and asked you to ride
out on Sunday, and the neighbors whis-
pered around that you were engaged Z"
Proceed, madam congratulate
YOU"
"No, you mustn't, for s'pssen after
all this he suddenly began to claw of,
and didn't smile on you any more, and
didn't praise your cooking, and took
another woman to the minstrel show!"
"Ah, the traitor! Perhaps he has trans
ferred his affection to some one else"
"That's what / think. / know its o
little delicate, but I'm alone in the world,
you see, and want to know if there isn't
a law TO bear on him 1t isn't right to
go and encourage lone woman like me

"Well, you can call on him. Take

a cloud of flour off her hands and ran up
the path with light heart.-Free Press.

PERUVIAN GIANTS. i have seen it
stated that the Pcruvians preserved no
record Of having come originally from
China. They had :. tradition, however.
concerning certain fore gners who came
by sea to their country, which may be
worth repeating; Garcias>o de IL Veg.
gives this tradition rs he himself heard it
in Peru. They affirm, he says, in all
Peru, that certain giants came by sea to
the cape now called St. IIelens. in large
barks made of rrshes. These giants were
so enormously tall that ordinary men
reached no higher than their knees their
long, disheveled hair covered their shoul-
ders; their eyes were as biz rs saucers,
and the other parts of their bodies were OF
corrcspondingiy colossal proportions. They
were be:lrdlc>s; some of them We're naked
others were clothed in the skins of wild
beasts; there We're no women with them
Having landed at the cape, they establish
ed themselves at a spot in the desert. an,
! dug deep wells in the rock. which at thi:
day continue to afford excellent water
/ They lived by rapine. and soon lcSolatc,
the whole country. Their appctites an,
! CluttOny were such that il is said one O
them would eat as much rs fifty ordinar,
persons. They mass.cred the men of tn
neighboring parts without mercy, ant
killed the women by their brutal viola
tions. At last. after having for lon;
time tyrannized over the country and com
milted all manner of enormities, the
were su ldenly destroyed by fire from
heaven, and IN angel armed with Il fam
ing sword. AS IN eternal monument of d
vine vengeance. their bones remained ur
consumed, and may be seen at the preser
day. As for the rest. it is not know
from what place they came, nor by VIII;
