WASH DRESSES.

Belted waists are in great favor for
summer dresses, and are especially pop
ular for wash dresses of cambria, ging-
ham, satteen, Chambery, batiste, and
the most inexpensive prints. There
are several ways of making these
waists, but those most easily ir0ned are
plain on the shoulders, and merely
gathered to belt in the middle of the
front and back, The fronts are but
toned up close 10 the throat with small
pearl buttons, round as pea, but with
eyes sunk in for sewing them on. The
back is made all in one piece, and stayed
by facing of linen beginning on the
shoulders, following the outline of the
armhole, and being sewed in with the
belt Others prefer to keep the waist

ASTHMA.
The Different Varieties of Most Dis
tresslng Complaint-Methods of Cure.

The Different Varieties of Most Dis
tresslng OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES of Cure.
When asthma is independent OF
other diseases it is called primary. 1t
is to this that the young are most
liable. The attacks are peculiarly
violent, but the intervals between them
are long, and wholly free from asthma
tic symptoms. 1t is in this form that,
when the accumulated nervous ten
dency eXplodes in an attack, the gen
eral system seems relieved. This form,
too, is most durable.
Secondary asthma has its exciting
cause in bronchitis, arrangement of
the stomach, or in heart disease. The
last form is really rare, the difficulty OF
breathing (dyspnga) in many of the
supposed cases being due to the heart
alone. The second form occurs about
two hours after dinner. In many of
these latter cases the patient may be
helped by taking no food after an early
dinner
Bronchial asthma is the most COM
mon of all, and the most intractable.
Every cold that brings on an attack OF
bronchitis induces an attack of asthma;
and where the bronchitis is chronic
the disturbing cause is never wholly
absent. This form is characterized by
copous expectoration. As chronic
bronchitis is seldom fully relieved, so
it is with the asthma, of which it is the
resulting cause.
A hope of cure depends largely on
the age. A child of ten is likely to
outgrow it; a person of twenty may,
one in middle life probably will find it
chronic, 1t is regarded quite favorable
if the attacks are light, or the Intervals
long between them, or if, in the inter-
walls, the breathing is free and natural.
As to treatment, what helps one may
not another. To some all remedies
are alike powerless.
The main remedies are such as pro-
duce nausea (depressants), such as
render the nervous system less impress
sible (sedatlves), and simulants. On
the first are ipecacuanha, tobacco and
lobelia. They should only cause nau-
sea without vomiting, keeping up the
nausea until the spasm is relieved
Other popular remedies are smoking
stramonium and nitre paper (msde by
dipping blotting-paper in saturated
solution of saltpeter). This last is
perhaps, the best. 1t often prevents an
attack at night to impregnate the air o.
the chamber with its fumes.
Of stimulants, coffee, strong as pos
sible, taken clear and on an empty
stomach, often gives full relief. Taken
in the ordinary way it tends to induce
an attack. Youths Companion

THE GARDEN.
To Have u Good Garden Weeds Must BE
Destroyed Early,

TO Have Good Garden weeds must BE
Destroyed Early.
To have a good garden the weeds
must be destroyed as soon as they are
above ground; to let them grow until
they are high enough to shade the crop
will not only greatly increase the labor
Of destroying them, but it will also
very materially injure the crop; for a
plant which has been oVer-shadowed
by weeds will not grow strong, but
will run up a slender, weak stalk,
which, when let into the sunshine by
removing the weeds, will often wilt SO
as to check its growth, or perhaps
kill it.
Every farmer should make it his
business to keep his garden clear Of
weeds; this is very easily done when
once the soil is freed from weed seeds,
but if crop of weed seeds is per-
mitted to ripen every year it very much
increases the labor Of keeping the gar
den clean. at CoE E
Observation teaches us that, while
most farmers keep the weeds under
their control during june and July,
very few have clean gardens during the
months of August and September, evil
IDENTIFY concluding that the crops are
far enough advanced to keep master
of the weeds, so they cease cultivation
and let the useful plants fight their way
unassisted. This is all wrong, because
it is giving the weeds chance to ripen
their seeds to make trouble another
year. If one would only stop to con-
slider, there would be no doubt enter
tanned but it would be best, as well as
easiest, to pull up all the weeds during
the summer and autumn before they
commenced to ripen their seed, for by
permitting them to seed each weed will
drop thousands of seeds which viii
make plants next season, so that in
stead of being obliged to pull up only
one weed thousands must be destroyed.
BY thorough cultivation during the
entire season, for few years, the land
may be so cleaned of weed seeds that a
garden can be taken care of with hall

But when a garden is cleaned of weec

and pulverized quite as often during the

A wheel hoe may be used and thu
work done not only very rapidly, bu
also much better than with common
hand hoe. A small iron rake is also
good implement and can be made t.
loosen large surface in a short space
of time, where there are no weeds t,
kill. We would urge farmers to bcgil
early to kill the weeds, and to keep u
the work until the growing season i
over; by so doing in few years tn
work of cultivating the garden will b
pleasant and easy.1- MaSSachuSett

THE WRONG STRING.


How a Conductors Inattention Was

"rve been a-laughin' most to kill my

"'All right, num-, says the con-

When we got up by Prince street she
waved her parasol and sung out:
Conductor, amt this Great Jones

"'No, num- says the conductor;

at each other and led him to their
lair, when they all sat down at the
table and one of the boys dealt the
cards. He bad packed the deck in
such way that he knew if the coun-
trymen should cut about in the mid
die, his partner would get four aces,
but the countryman did not cut at all,
and the deal gave him four kings and
queen, while four mines were in the
hands OF the dealer, and the partner
Of the dealer held three queens and a
jack.
"How much air four sevens worth?n
queried the countryman.
Both the gamblers said it was a
good hand, and he pulled out big
roll of money and began to bet liber-
ally. They finally got the wager up
as high as they could go with the
funds at hands, and they called him,
when he laid down his hand and
raked in all the money in sight.
