No EXCUSE FOR ANY ONE BEING OUT
OF EMPLoYMENT.-Our attention has
been called to some new and useful
cooking utensils, recently invented,
which make baking and cooking Pleas
ure, instead of dreaded necessity. One
of which, the PaseEt Centennial Cake
and Bread Pan, made of Russia iron, is
SO constructed that you can remove your
cake when baked, instantly from the pan
without breaking or iniuring it, and you
can remove the tube, and convert it into
q plain bottom pan, fcr baking jelly or
plain cakes, bread etc. Another-the
Kitchen Gem-a plated wire boiler or
steamer to hang inside of an ordinary
iron pot, for boiling or steamlng vege-
tables, ETC.. which when done, can be
removed perfectly dry without lifting
the heavy sooty iron pot off of the stove,
avoiding the danger of burning the
hands with the steam in pouring off the
hot water, and the vegetables can not
possibly burn if the water boils dry, as
the steamer does not touch the bottom
of the pot. These goods are sold exclu-
sively through agents to families, and
every housekeeper should by all means
have them. a splendid opportunity IS
offered to some reliable lady or gentle
man canvasser of this county to secure
the agency for pleasant and profitable
business. For terms, territory, etc,

To PRESERVE autumn leaves press
them carefully between newspapers,
taking care to avoid tapping one over
another. The next day take out the
leaves and dry the papers. Put the
leaves again in press, and the next day
repeat the drying process. This should
be done three or four times until all the
moisture is extracted from the leaves.
This is troublesome, but the result will
be brilliant. If the face Of each leaf
after the first pressing is brushed over
with sulphurio acid, diluted one-balf
with water, the color will be still bright
er. Do not wax or varnish the leaves,
as it gives them ~ unnatural gloss.
They can be made into sprays or gar
lands by means of the fine wire which
florists use, twisted around their stems.

of every person who has used Boschee's
German Syrup TO let its wonderful quail
tiles be known to their friends in curing
consumption, severe coughs, Group,

it without immediate relief. Three

recommend it to the poor dying con
sumptive, at least to try one bottle, as
49, 600 dozen bottles were SOLD last year,

ported. Such a medicine as the Ger
