TJNIIE above cut represents a section and GaAS
i of strong, cheap and durable Steel Wiro
Fence which is now being used at the North
and Northwest in preference to any other kind
of fencing. Wherever it has been tried it has
given great satisfaction.
1t is net work without barbs and will keep
out small pigs or any other animals that may
ir;;urc gardens or farm crops.
1t makes no shade and shelters entmiss
crops poultry.
Ii is Just the fence for Gardens, Lots, Lawns
Parks and Cemeteries.
Beng dipped in Rust proof paint it will last

Tie Education of Children.

Louise Alcott, who has written sc
charmngly and sugg stively of the
educ alton of children, has now q
chance to put her theories into prac
tice. When her sister Mary died in
Paris she left little daughter, whom
Louise has adopted and will educate
in accordance with her plan of bring,
ing up children. This plan she states
as follows:
knowledge of truth, obedience and
self-cOntrol then such necessary les
sons as all must learn, and later such
accomplishments as taste and talent
lead her to desire; a profession OF
trade to fall back upon in time oil
need, that she may not be dependent
or too proud to work for her bread

ures and dress, no mixing of school
and Irritation, but simple amusements,
daily duties, and a purpose in life tt

preparing for the work and happiness

Thi, is quite different from the edu-
cation of the fashionable girl Of the
period, or the heroines produced by
the Henry James school of novelists :
but it may be the harbnger of the
new-fashioned girl, it is to be hoped a

Thinking Aloud In Church.

One of our churches has some
what eccentric parishioner, who often
affords the congregation much amuse-
ment. He has habit of expressing
his thoughts aloud when very
much in earnest, never mind
where he may be. His entire
inconsistencies Of having thought
aloud is irresistibly funny. Last Sun

to pass him to get seat. AS she did
so she carried the gentlemaI's hat,
which was on the floor, some distance.

A New Hand.

The last of May, 1882, Simon Snyder,
who was working in a planning mill at
Portsmouth,, O., had his hand so badly
lacerated in the machinery that ampu-
tation was necessary. The hand was
buried in Mr.. Snyder's garden. Two
weeks after, upon the mound which
the little twelve-year-old daughter of
the injured man had made over the
severed hand, grew a small fungus
] Ike plant in the exact shape of a hui
man hand. The Portsmouth CO..
Bl0de call ID attention to the wonder,
and gave full description of it. Hun
dreds of citizens visited Mr.. Snyder to
see this freak of nature. All were
interested. Those who tried to under
stand it were mystified, and the super
slit Gus were sure it was some portent
of evil. Mr.. and Mrs. Snyder removed
to Conesville, Louisa county, Iowa
two months ago, and brought the
fingers with them preserved in alec
hol. Mr.. c. Z. Harrison, of the Brady
street pharmacy, brought the curl
Osity to Davenport. Mr.. Harrison
tried to prevail upon Mrs. Snyder to
give it to the Academy of Science but
she has not yet consented.
The fingers are of dark brown
color, the thumb and fingers approach
nearly the exact form, and perhaps the
queerest part of it is that the fore
finger is shorter than it should be. Mr..
Snyder lost the foreiinger OF that hand
two years before the amputation. The
little finger was broken off by acct
dent and shows that the inside of the
fingers is white. Cases are on record
where roots and vegetable growth have
taken the place and shape of buried
objects of a perishable nature by alb
sorption and growth contemporaneous
with decay. but this was an exterior

A prominent citizen sends us the following
statement:
For several years I have been very seri-

which l long supposed to be lumbago or
rheumatism of the back. More recently the
pains had become more severe, so much so
that it was with difficulty that l was able to

various remedies without any apparent relief.
By the earnest solicitation of a friend 1 COM

ago. and its instantaneous benefits are Won
derful, for have had no pains in my back
since taking the first three doses; and am
relieved from the pains, aches and exhaustive
weakness, the painful symptoms that usually

manently cured by the use of it. 1 most

who are afflicted with any kidney or liver

A Mass of Bloom.

The fashion of bedding plants of diff
ferent colors in carpet patterns has
been developed in English gardens
under conditions of warmth and mois-
ture which are unknown in this eli
mate, says an exchange. In the short,
hot and dry summers of the United
States, striking effects in this formal
and artificial style of planting have
not yet been attained, but every year
the florists are sending out new plants
obtained by careful hyEidizing and
selection. with a view to produce
varieties with bright-hued foliage and
fast colorS under our trying sun. 1t
is in stylish summer resorts that the
lawns are most profusely ribboned,
embroidered and emblazoned with
floral bravery OF this sort. From New
port comes the account that 10000
plants of single variety have been
ordered for one mass of color on The
grounds of a swell villa. The shortest
name yet invented for any one oft ese
10000 specimens is ternanthera
parychoides ma Or, but all this name
has not yet discouraged this little
plant from cleaning very brightly in
crimson and gold. The casual slate
ment that In bed of alternantheras
will cost $4,000 adds slightly pros tic
and commercial flavor t. the story, but
then decorations of this class are more
widely appreciated when they are
known to be expensive.

satisfied upon close investigation that the
cause of my sickness was the diseased condi-'

toms to mine, informed me of the great
improvement in his health by taking Hunts
Remedy, and persuaded me to try it. 1.

continued use affords very encouraging re-
suits. l can sleep soundly, walk better, am

venting the attacks of sick headache with

A Rich Man Dies of Starvation.

$50 Jones is dea l." said one Somer-
vile man to another, the other day.
"Yes, poor fellow" was the reply,
he's gone" "What did lie die of 2"
inquired the first speaker. "Starva-
tion." was the answer. "Starvation |!
Cool gracious, the man was worth
$4,000" Il know that; nevertheless
he died of starvation. I'll tell you
how it was: Jones was always fancy
ing that there was something the mat
ter with him; so he went to a doctor
one day and had himself examined,
and the doctor informed him that he
had kidney disease, and besides taking
medicine must diet himself. Said the
doctor: You must avoid all kinds of
salt meats, salt fish, potatoes, cabbage
and vegetables of every kind Jones
followed the advice, but found himself
no better. He went to another doctor.
and after being examined was informed
that he must avoid all kinds Of fresh
meats also. This did not do him any
good. as he thought, and he went to
another doctor, who highly approved
of the advice which had previously
been given, and further warned him
against all kinds of pastry, likewise
shellfish, including oysters and clans.
The best thing for you is a milk diet,
said this doctor; so Jones lived wholly
upon milk. Not feeling himself any
better, he went to another doctor, who
cautioned him to avoid milk, above all
things, if he wanted to get well.
This reduced Jones to a diet of cold
water and fresh air, and finding him.
self no better upon this regimen, he
went to another doctor who urged him
to beware of drinking too much water
and Being too much in the air. This
last advice cut off the last of Jones'
article of diet, and he died of starva-
ton, as | have told you"

FASHION NOTES.

The French are not fitting the
sleeves as high on the shoulders as for
merly.
Braided crowns of gilt GALLON and
velvet still appearin many of the small
| bonnets.
A wool jersey with sa h and kilt
skirt is the popular country suit for
small boys.
little bonnets of white lace and
black velvet are very becoming and
effective for coaching.
Many colored straw Milans are
trimmed very simple with plaitings of
Alencon lace and narrow ribbon.
Scotch plaid glace silk of very dark
colors are used in combination with
surah and CASHMERE for semi-dress cos
tunes.
Sun umbrellas are to match the color
of the dress, and are mounted on thick
oaken sticks, with handles studded
with gold.
The high novelty in wa king-suits in
Paris is combination of fine black
cashmere and white MORE on white
Ottoman silk.
The requisite dash of yellow in a
white toilet is sometimes given by
wearing an amber necklace and amber
bracelets, or with yellow topaz jewe,ry.
1t is fashionable to wear very large
sunshades of printed satinette TO match
costumes of the same; the large fan
Is also made to correspond, or else it is
bright red.
Ru hing is again worn inside the
neckband Of dress ami is now edged
with the finest of lace, either fat
Valenciennes, Oriental or Pompa-
dour. The ruche often trims the edge
of front of waist a fingers length.
Fans of tinted ostrich feathers,
mounted on tortoise-shell, are still the
height of style for evening dress. They
are oval in shape, and usually have a
briiliantly-plumaged bird, or a cluster
of lilies or roses set in the center of the
fan.
The most fashionable of the white
toilets worn this summer, instead of
being relieved by the usual colors of
rose-color, blue or mauve, will be en-
livened by the newer shades of French
terra Gotta, tea rose, shrimp pink, and
the like.
The panier corsage is in favor for
dresses of soft summer tissues. 1t has
the front gagged on the shoulders and
at the waist. Below this it forms full
paniers that sweep away to ca h side,
drape the hips, and meet in a large bow
on the back.
White sicilienne dresses trimmed
with white Valenciennes lace are the
most charming toilets for young ladies
to wear at summer weddings and
dinners. The Valenciennes fiounces
cover the front of the skirt and the
bodice is half low, pointed back and
front with Valenciennes sleeves. The
neck is filled in with gathered la:e.
