London Suburbs.

The suburbs of the metropolis, all of
them full of historical and interesting
associations, and most of them, within
the memory of living men, full of his
torical mansions, are fast losing, with
their fields and woods, the old and dis
tinctive flavor. Kensington has long
since been built over; there are no
longer fields at Noting Hill; Shep-
herds Bush, in whose thickets the foot
pads used to lie in wait for those who
had escaped the highwaymen from
Hounslow Heath, is a labyrinth Of
mean streets and "jerry-built" houses.
On the south side London has spread
itself out for fifteen miles across the
Surrey hills; there is little left OF the
sweet rusticity of Dulwich; Clapham
and Wimbledon have their commons
still, but they are now great towns I;
Forest Hill has lost it's forest, and
PENCE its hanging woods. On the west
there are houses as far MS Brentford,
Kew and Richmond; on the east the
old village of Stratfordon-the-Bow has
become great town of 5000 in
habitants, and the leafy, little, secluded
villages which stand upon the southern
edge of Epping Forest are united by
rows of moan, hideous, monotonous ter
races and villas.
The way in which new suburbs spring
ap is like the dreams OF Western
Spectator whose imagination is let
loose upon plotting paper, and month
after month the green fields and still
villages become more distant from St.
Paul's. The tavern which to-day
stands in Ms own grounds, wrapped up
In ivy and masses of flowers, where we
may escape the noise of the city in rural
privacy, may soon be transformed into
vulgar public" serving pots of
washy ale over the counter, and the
bowers around it to be swept away to
make room for shops and cottages.
At one outpost in London is an Eliz-
abethan mansion-real Elizabethan and
real mansion--which has dignity and
genuineness about it's grandeur not
common in these days of veneer and af-
fectation in buildings and nomencla-
ture 1t has been the manor for gen.
erations, and up to last year it held a
position of lofty isolation in its park,
where the hawthorns and lines almost
hid it from the outside world. But in
twelve months it has become an anon
alv. New homes, new shops and a
railway have surrounded it. What was
country year ago is now an integral
part of the city, and the old manor
house, with its glory unimpaired, has
suddenly become an anachronism.-JE.

Sardines.

Nearly all the fish eaten in America
as sardines come from Maine. They
are small herring. Sometimes only a
bushel or two are taken at time, and
at others so many as to endanger the
net. The degree of dexterity with
which they are cleaned is astonishing,
especially as it is done by very young
children. After this they are placed on
large gridirons, and suspended over a
hot fire to broil. The boxes are pre-
pared with attractive French labels in
dicating olive oil. but this is false, as
the oil is cottonseed.> The packing is
another operation at which little people
are expert. A fish is seized in each
hand and laid lengthwise in the box,
first head at the outer end and then n
tail. After the boxes are full small
quantity of oil is poured in, and then
they are passed to men who solder them
tightly. They are next thrown into an
immense cauldron, where they ar g
boiled two hours, thus completing the
cooking process, and dissolving the
bones of the fish. One of the estab-
lishments in Lubec prepares about
1000 boxes daily, and there are nine
teen such places in Eastport, beside
many others at seaport towns. The
actual cost per box, including all ex-
penses, is sSid to be five cents.

Hygienic Hints.

DR.. Cleanliness is the most compe-
tent and reliable of all physicians; his
charges are lowest, the diet he pre-
scribes the most wholesome, his medi-
cines the most efficacious and his pa
TENTS the longest lived. Consult him
freely.
Do not keep a swill-barrel half filled
with fermenting milk and corn cobs in
the back kitchen. Far better have
hogs enough to consume the kitchen
and dairy refuse before it is day old,
or feed it to the cattle. Better bury it
in the compost heap than have it stand
ing around day after day, to draw flies
and pollute the air of our homes.
For a home made disinfectant dis
solve n bushel of salt in barrel of
water, and with the salt water slack q
barrel of lime, which should be wet
enough to form kind of paste. For
the purpose of disinfectant this home
made chloride of lime is nearly as good
as that purchased at the shops. Use it
freely about sinks, cellars, cutters and
outhouses, and in this way prevent sick
ness, suffering and expense.
The pain of teething may almost be
done away and the health of the child
benefited by giving it very small bits
of ice to melt in its mouth. Let the
bit be so small that it will but drop
of warm water before it can be swal-
lowed, and the child has all the cool
ness for its feverish gums without the
slightest injury. The avidity with
which the little things taste the cooling
morsel, the instant quiet which succeeds
hours of fretfulness, and the sleep
which follows the relief, are the best
witnesses to the magic remedy.

WHY II Would Sound Better.

Little 5-year-old Annie, who was suf-
fering from bad cold, went TO pay
visit to auntie. During the day she re-
lated her various successes at school,
and ended by declaring that she could
read good deal better than Sabrina,
who was 3 year old. "Well," ques-
toned auntie, wouldn't il sound better
if somebody else said it?" "Yes," an
swered Annie, with a sober counter
ance, II think it would; have such a
