The worlds Champion.

Mr.. Edward Hanlan, the great oars
man, and, until his recent contest with
Beach in Australia, the champion OF
the world, may certainly belookedup-
OF as an authority in everything az
fecting athletic sports. Before leaving
Australia for this country, he wrote a
letter in which he stated that he had
used st. Jacobs Oil with the most ben
eficial results. He found it a reliable
remedy for muscular painsin the arms
and limbs, and from his personal ex-
perience took great pleasure IN recon-
mending it. No stronger proof OF the
truth Of what is claimed for st. Jacobs
Oil could be furnished than this, and
will undoubtedly carry great weight
with all thoughtful and intelligent
people.

Say there are so, 600 600 OF barrels OF
flour consumed in this country each
year, and say that there are 2,000,-
900 Of people who buy it by the bar
rel, there might be saved to the peo-
pie of this country 81, 400, 900, saying
that twenty cents per barrel is saved
by purchasing flour in sacks. Really
it may be little more than this, espe-
cially so in muslin sacks, the muslin
being valuable for further use There
is more -four than this sold in barrels,
but in the larger cities the bakers sell
the barrels for twenty and twenty-five
cents apiece, which represents loss OF
from ten to twenty cents barrel.

SLEEPING WITH OPEN WINDOWS.

This question introduces a subject
upon which there is diversity of opin.
ion both among medical practitioners
and individuals. 81 have had no bad
cold since | learned to sleep with my
windows open" remarked a gentleman.
In reply, another says that the only
"bad colds he ever suffered from were
contracted by sleeping in rooms to
which the night air had free access"
He adds that it is well known that the
bodily temperature sinks slightly dur
ing sleep; the physiological functions
act with diminished activity, and hence
the resistance of the economy to NOR
bific Influences is proportionately les
sened. But it is also we'll known that
at night these influences are more
potent and noxious. The air is charged
with greater humidity miasmatic and
malarial poisons arise to higher levels
and extend with greater r@pidity the
chill of the damp night air is penetrat-
ing and dangerous the emanations
from organic decay are more percepti-
BILE.
Against these the sleeper is less pro-
tected than in the daytime. He has
Invested himself of his woollen external
clothing to but on cotton or linen, and
lies between sheets Of the same material,
between which, at the tops and sides of
the bed, the air gains ready access TO
the unprotected surface. Ii he is rest
less, he renders such an access yet more
easy. "A greater risk awaits him. A
sudden fall in temperature at night is
no unusual occurrence. In summer a
thunder gust, in winter a shift of the
wind to the north, often reduces the
temperature ten or twenty degrees.
The sleeper is unaware of this. He
remains exposed to it with no further
protection than he found agreeable at
the higher temperature until he awakes
chilled and stiff, perhaps with the seeds
Of serious illness already sown.
These are such positive and unavoid-
able risks that we should counsel a
delicate person to be exceedingly eau
tious how he ventured on the plan of
open windows at night, however much
has been said in its favor.

WHAT Is GOSSIP 2

We are often asked What is gossip"
We answer, in general way, that it
is talking of persons rather than things
Nothing shows the paucity of ideas
more than this talking about the affairs
Of neighbors. 1t is not only malicious
people who originate scandal it is mar
row-minded people, ignorant people,
stupid people. Persons of culture and
intelligence are not hard to run for
topics of conversation. They can usu-
ally find something to say about art,
literature, fashion or society. The mo-
ment people begin to talk about their
neighbors-of persons rather than
things-they are apt TO degenerate
into scandal for where one speaks of
the virtues OF an acquaintance, doz-
en- expatiate on his or her shortcom-
ings.
And this brings us to speak of real
culture, or what we consider such, at
least, A cultivated person, in the
highest sense of the term, is not mere
ly one who can talk of books, pictures
and other elevated subjects of human
interests. To be thoroughly cnltiva-
ted, the heart, as well as the intellect,
should be refined and enlarged
Sometimes we see women, who with
out education, yet having been born
amiable, are never guilty of gossip.
Again we see women not naturally
amiable, whom education has taught
to talk of things not of persons. The
perfect woman, in this respect, is one
who is both amiable and educated.
But education does not always ele-
vate people above the region of gossip.
A really bad heart is always malicious.
The best advice we can give is the
homely old adage, "Mind your own
business" Very few of us know the
whole truth about anything concern
ing neighbor, and to speak of his or
her conduct is usually to run the risk
Of being unjust. Much less should we
talk Of motives of others. Very few
of us know our own motives, and to
venture on discussing a neighbours
motives is always impertinent and
often a real crime.

SAYING "aBE0 TO HIS OXEN.

"Hints for the Hayfield" is the title
of an agricultural pamphlet. A hint
may do for the bayfield,, but it takes a
club to stir up the gentlemen VINO toll
amid the waving grass and scented
clover. But, speaking of these indirect
illusions and suggestively instructive
insinuations addressed to those seques-
trations of tillable land adapted to pas
turage or the production of nutritious
indigenous plants having simple
leaves, joined and usually tubular
stems and husky calyx, reminds US
the labor of extracting from the fruitful
bosom of the planet which we inhabit

port the life of man and beast, is now

RECIPES AND HoUsEHoLD HINTS,

A small quantity of sassafras-bar
placed among any kind of dried fruit
or dried beans will keep is free from
worms or bugs for years.
A piece Of soft newspaper and a
little alcohol will clean windows and
mirrors quickly and give nice polish.
Paper is be ter for the purpose, as the
lint from cloth is not easy removed.
A Graham pudding is made by tax
ing one and one-half cup of Graham
-four, one-half cup Of sweet milk, one
egg, one teaspoonful of soda, one cup
of raisins, seeded. Add spice and salt
to the taste, and steam, three hours.
Serve with lemon sauce.
To fry corn, cut the corn from the
cob put it in the spider with butter,
half he size of an egg cover and
cooktffteen minutes stirring occasion
ally but adding no water The steam
will cook it, if kept covered. Add
salt a pepper and cup of cream when
done.
Economy counts in the course of a
year, and the care of the kithen uten-
sils, the shtubs, ETC., is by no means
lost or useless. 1t is wise also, to look
after the fruit cans, when the fruit is
taken they should be washed in warm
suds, and should then have little soda
or ammonia put into them and be filled
with water, and allowed to stand for an
hour or two, then they should be rinsed
in clear water, and the rubbers and
tops all be taken equally good care of,
so that when they are needed next
autumn no loss may occur.
Many persous who are in the habit
of freshening mackerel, or other salt
fish, never dream that there is right
way and wrong way to do it. Any
person who has seen the process of
evaporating going on at salt works,
know that the salt falls to the bottom.
Just so it is in pan where your mack
erel lies soaking and as it lies with
the side down, the salt will fall to the
skin and there remain F; when if placed
with the flesh down the salt falls to
the bottom of the pan, and the fish
comes out freshened as it should be.
Inthe other case it is nearly as salt as
when put in.
