to put it. just stick a pin in the lower
end and bend it into hook. then hang

or ginger, good for collie and sick stom-
ach. Dose. ten drops for a grown per-

give one teaspoonful of this.
Sage tea is a perfect harmless
worth, it has great many positive and
invaluable virtues. 1t will cure a cold
il taken in time, it will break a fever
in its earlier stages, and it will induce
sleep in the sleepless. 1t is good in
eruptive diseases; in short, whenever
any ordinary disorder troubles the
family.
To keep the hands from chapping:
just before retiring wash thoroughly,
rub with piece OF lemon and dry on a
soft towel. Then rub in a few drops of
oil OF sweet almonds. draw on a pair Of
large kid gloves. which you have pre-
viously smeared with mutton tallow.

gether with reasonable care of the

most persons.-RuraL New Yorker.
-Fissure Of the lip. or chapped lips,
is an annoying trouble, and unless it is
properly treated is generally somewhat
obstinate. journal of Health advises,
as the quickest way to cure it. to draw
stick Of lunar caustic over the wound,
slightly burning the same. The opera
ton is painful only for moment. and
Improvement commences at once. At
ter cauterizing, ''camphor-ice" should
be frequently applied, and, as a rule,
the wound will heal in three or four
days. -
The Children's Pudding.-Fill q
deep dish with apples cut up small; add
for two-quart pudding one cup of SUI
gar, one OF water, pinch of salt, and
half a teaspoonful of either cinnamon
or allspice. Make crust as for bis
cult, half of the usual rule being
enough; roll it to the size of the pud-
ding dish, which should be buttered
lightly, and bake half an hour, or more
if the apples are hard. This pudding
is often steamed instead of baked, and
eaten with sauce made of one cup of
mOlasses, a spoonful of butter, table,
spoonful of lemon juice or vinegar, all
boiled together fifteen minutes. Chris

The Numerous and Diversified Phases Of
This Seasons Styles. s4
Some of the latest toilets for BRIDE
maids are charmingly quaint and old
fashioned in effect. and a number of ex-
ceedingly recherche and expensive
gowns of this description, made in Lon
don. are modelled after dresses popular
in the sixteenth century. In no case,
however, are absolute copies made.
Features and characteristics are made
use of, both on bOdices and skirts, rem
dering the toilets, when completed, far
prettier and more attractive by their
novelty than the wholly modern cos
tune, to which we are so accustomed,
or the wholly antique gown, that un-
altered and unmodified in any of its de-
tails. would appear erratic and often
decidedly Outre. This is also the case
in millinery, for from excessive height
in hats, there appears to be general
tendency to run to an extreme in the
opposite direction. Lower and lower
grows the crowns, and wider the brims.
and more eccentric the manipulation of
these brims in the hands of the artistic
milliner, seeking for new effects in
shaping the contour of the new picture
hats for the winter of 80. However,
like all sudden changes, the majority do
not favor the swift collapse of the high
head-gear of several seasons past
Fashion in these days appears to move
rather by transitions and gradual
remodelings and notifications than
by abrupt moves, and al
though the picturesque chapeau of
the season is looked at and admired in
its varied forms. and made of all the
novel and elegant textiles and garni-
lures of the season, madam, bringing
one ''lapstone" style and then the other
from the attractive showcases in her
salon twirls them seyerally upon her
hand, and holds them in their best
light, in vain. Nine women out of
eleven behold the new mode, admire it,
and straightway purchase hat exactly
its opposite in effect. This is certainly
one of the great advantages of our
modern days of Independence, that no
one is obliged to follow any certain I'M
deviating methods or fixed unalterable
laws regarding their dress. So many
and so diversified are the phases of
fashion, that it at last appears within
human possibilities to satisfy all eyes,
tastes, persons and purses. And be-
sides all the endless styles and caprices,
if some bright genius of the wardrobe
can evolve from her own quick brain
something yet unthought of and at
tractive, so much the better for the fair
originator, whose tastes, if correct and
praiseworthy, is Immediately COM
mended and copied as a tribute to her
ingenuity Some of the most beautiful
and finished toilets noted this season
have been those wherein the designer
of the gowns has exercised her own
taste and art in combining the various
elements of number of toilets into
one, partaking in degree Of the phase
and effect of each of the several styles,
without, as we have said above, making
an absolute copy of any one model

There is probability that the ex-
port duty will be removed by the Ca
madam government on logs brought
from that country to this. A recent
dispatch from Ottawa says:
Leading lumbermen of the domin-
ion waited upon the government last
Thursday and asked for the abolition
of the export duty of SO per 1000
on logs towed to the United States.
Retalatory legislation, they fear, will
be adopted at Washington unless a
change is made"
This subject concerns the citizens
of this city very much, because if the
export duty is removed, it is very
likely that logs will be RATED from
Georgian Bay pineries to this city to
be manufactured at the mills here.
Alpena mill owners have immense
tracts of pine in the Georgian Bay
region, and we have hopes that the
timber they own will be soon RATED
to this city, and should not be sup
prised if some RATS were brought
over the coming summer.

The Bay City Press claims that the
worlds champion load of logs was re-
Gently drawn by team of horses at
Archie Browns camp, which measur-
ed 1920 feet. The Press evidently
does not know that few years ago a
load of logs was drawn at Sauble
camp that puts its load in the shade
We have photograph Of the Sauble
load and the number of feet contained
in it is 30,06S feet. The Sauble load
looks to be at least 10 feet high, and
most of the logs appear to be over 80
feet long. On this big load question
the Bay City Tribune claims the big

three miles, which measured 1858
feet.
