child. The little fellow had been coasting;
his feet were wet and cold-chilled 10 the
bone. He had fine time, he said, and
was shortly ready for bed, where he was
tucked in" by his gentle mother, and was
soon asleep. In an hour he walked cross
and crying. Mamma" he said, "mos-
quitoes is eating my feet up" That was
just 1t. He was feeling for the first time
the pangs Of chilblains. Jack Frost had
nipped his toes. We grown people don't
appreciate how children suffer. II hun
dred mosquitoes went to work at once on
Q mans bare foot, he would know what
that child suffered. A burning, itching
swelling that becomes torture, and leaves
the feet so tender they will hardly bear
weight. 1t is not because we do not SYM
pathize, but because we do not seek out
and find what will give prompt and per-
manent relief that they are condemned to
this racking torture, without sleep, night
after night Now, in proof case may be
cited to show that people are sometimes %
crippled by frost-bites as to be helpless and
thrown out Of work in consequence. Miss
Kate Shuts, Mt. Washington, Baltimore
county, Nd, writes, under date of October
%, 1884: After being told by two prom.
inent physicians that they could not give
me any cure for frostbite, I tried st.
Jacobs Oil, and it proved blessing. Every
winter was prevented from earning my
living by frost-bite, but since using the Oil
have not been troubled with it." 1t 10 in
its nature the very thing; acting as gen.
tie counter-irritant il draws ont the fever
and fire produced by the frost, reduces the
swelling, heals the soreness, and there are no
tender feet afterward. Now, for mercy's
sake, when you see little one tortured in
this way, remember this. The feet becom-
ing once tender and sensitive are subject
every winter to return of this plague

Splendiferous Su Will Have a S1S,
900, 900 Wedding.

A paragraph picked from a letter in the
Chicago Times follows:
The greatest event in China for a long
while will be the marriage Of the young
emperor, Kwang Su, who is just II years
OF age. Marriages and funerals are the
prime e~xtravagances of the Chinese race,
and KwaRg Su's marriage day will be a
banner one for all China, prince and
coolie alike. AT the least calculation the
wedding will cost S15, 900, 600, which is a
a few millions less than the original plan,
owing to the very low exchequer of the
Chinese government this year. At high
noon on the coming Chinese New Year
day, which will be about February %,
the young emperor will be arrayed in the
finest OF silk and a purgatory collar,
and Will oe a~nxiously awaiting the
arrival of the royal cortege and the Prin.
cess kang Sing. She will be con
veyed from the palace in a yellow
the royal color sedan chair, her pretty
features being concealed under a yellow
satin sacque fastened at the waist. Along
the line of the bridal procession the
houses and stores will be closed, and if
Chlnaman ventures upon the street his
life will be in peril. On the arrival a
the palace the ceremony will be per
formed, the royal family and high Off
GERS being the only witnesses.
After the ceremonies Kwang Su viii
marry four other wives, and besides thes,
will lake seventy-fve concubines to hi
palace. His first, or called by the Chin
csc his principal, wife is on the same pa
with his other consorts, save that she ha
the precedence in the family, but it doe
not follow that her son will be the mex
Emperor.
The Emperor is supposed to study tn
character of all his sons, and the on
whom he deems the most able will be tn
next ruler.

and he said:

she is, and what she'd do in an emer-

want one Of you to go to the back door
and be ugly and sassy, and demand sup,

One of the crowd said he'd cheerfully
go, and GO he did, while the others posted
themselves in front. BY and by a woman
came to the door, looked up and down,
and said to a boy who was passing:
"Bubby, won't you go over to the store
and tell my husband to come OVER"
"Yes'm."
Needn't hurry any, but justLdrop in
if it's convenient.
When the crowd came over they found
the volunteer lying IN his back in the
rear yard, unconscious and his nose
broken, and the wife said:
HE wanted supper and was ugly about
1t, and so | laid him out with a flat iron"
And an hour later, when the poor man

was to pay damages, echo sadly answered
