ment had come; but clip, clip, went the
shears, and down fell the luxuriant
tresses, until they lay heap of gold at
her feet.
The incensed squaw did not do her
work artistically, from barber's point
of view, but she did it effectually, hop
ing thereby to bring the erring Mr.. W.
to his right senses. Miss Eastwood
burst into tears, and felt that this was
only the next worst thing to being kill
ed; for she sadly feared that, with her
hair, she was shorn of her powers OF
conquest. Mrs. We-to-chee smiled
triumphantly; and upon this tableau
burst Alfred Glentheal, pale, weary and
almost hopeless of finding his lost love.
With sob of delight, Maude threw
herself into his outstretched arms, e1-
claiming: "Ohl take me away from
this dreadful woman!"
The dreadful woman glanced from
one to the other, and seeing how matters
stood, she deliberately gathered up the
golden tresses and presented them to
Mr.. Glentheal.

would make q splendid switch, which
was some comfort. And this was
greater magnanimity than she had e1-
pected of her hostess-i she could be
regarded in that light. But Mrs. Veto
chee was entirely unacquainted with
switches, and intended her gift as asting-
ing sarcasm. She had been revenged,
the white man would relieve her OF her
unwelcome rival, and short curtain leo
ture would make it all right with the
misguided w.
So the lovers were allowed to depart
in peace, and the first remark uttered by
the young lady was "Am I not per-
feet fright without my hair9"
Mr.. Glentheal's g reply was too long to
be chronicled, but in the course OF it he
said: "And, now, my darling, you WILL
admit yourself caught3"
Maude could not deny it but as she
gazed ruefully at her severed locks, she
could not help thinging how much more
agreeable it would have been to be
caught with her hair on.-Bazar.

Canadian Finances.

The minister of finances in Canada
says that in the year ending June 80,
1876, tho receipts were 1924, ,648, 715 and
the expenditures $23, 713, OIL, leaving q
surplus OF 1886, GA. The current year,
therefore, would be the first to show a
deficit. But in 1874 the imports entered
for consumption, our chief source OF
revenue, were 1927, 404, 169, and in 1875
they were only $119, ,67s, ,657, showing a
decrease of $7,7S5,512. The exports
in 1874 amounted to S89, ,351, ,928, and IN
1876 to only ST., 1886, ,979, or a decrease
of 81, ,464, 949.

Shocking Dishonesty.

Some young ladies of Whitmore Lake
Michigan, undertook to get up a dona-
ton by retailing kisses, and succeeded
in disposing Of ninety, for which the
aggregate receipts were 81 80. But the
investors complain that the girls pinched
up their lips and skimped the measure
to such a degree that they made profit
Of 1000 per cent.

OPEN LETTER.

The open letter of Judge Black, Of
Pennsylvania, to General Garfield of o.
which we print this morning, is simply
awful. He takes the Buckeye Pharlsee
upon the nib of his pen, as it were; he
tosses him in the air; he catches him
again, and after sponging hun off with
vitriol, douses him down in his own
mire; then he lifts him up, b tered,
bruised and splattered, before the gaze
of men, a shapeless mass of bruised and
bleeding hypocrisy. Yet Garfield is a
person of kindly disposition; much
such driveler as Blacks last victim,
thelate Vice President. To do hun JUS
tice, his connection with Cre6H mob7her
is explainable. He is not thief, He is
indeed an adroit partisan, skilIful dis
putant, an educated politician of the
namby pamby, sentimental school. Like
Taft, he is weak in virtue and easily
seduced, OF such is Hayes, He, no more
than the rest, can resist temptation

The Republican party takes great pride
in its devotion to the Public School sys-

particularly pleased with themselves.
They built up the system in their State
by appropriating $4,000 to educational
purposes. They then created officers
whose salaries aggregated $4,000. We
have no account of the $4,000 left for the
e,ection of school buildings and the en-
poyment of teachers but somebody pro-
badly stole that small dab.

Health Maxims:
r.Hall.I

|
The best three medicines in the worlt
are warmth, abstinence and repose.
Whatever promotes a comfortable anC
harmless state Of mind promotes health
Men consume too much food and toe
little pure air; they take too much medi'
cine and too little exercise.
Observation-Disclosures temporary in their
effects; they alleviate or smother instead
OF eradicating disease.
Every man owes tito society to be-
come rich, for the poor mans advice Il
never needed, let II be ever SO valuable,
Very many diseases are laid at the door
OF "the weather. 1t il the want Of
weather which brings multitudes in our
larger cities to an untimely grave.
In small quantities, and occasionally,
many things may be eaten with advan.
tage, which, II eaten continuously for
weeks and months, or in inordinate
amounts, would occasion serious results,
Persons may outgrow disease and be-
come healthy by proper attention 70 the
laws Of their physical constitutions. By
moderate and daily exercise men may be-
come active and strong in limb and
muscle.
Pads andsupportcrs are all pernicious,
and worse than useless, becausei they
teach the system to rely on them, and
cannot support one part Of the body with
out causing IN unnatural strain on some
other part, and 10 that extent tend to dis
ease that part.
To all young persons to students, to
the sedcntary, and to inyalids the fullest
sleep that the system will take, without
artificial means, is the balm Of life; with
out 1t there can be no restoration to health
and activity again. Never wake up the
sick or inhrni, or young children OF a
morning; it is n barbarity; let them wake
Of themselves.
Speaking Of changing the clothing, we
consider It hazardous to lessen the amount
after dressing in the morning,u unless active
exercise is taken Immediately. No under
garments should be changed for lighter
ones during the day ordinarily. The
best, safest and most convenient time for
lessening the clothing is in the morning,
when We first dress for the day.
