Blackberry Cordial.

The Philadelphia Ledger in its "House-
hole" gives the following:
Blackberry Cordial is among the impor
tant bottles fer the medicine shelf 1t is
such simple and palatable astringent that
it holds the cure of many long continued
diarrheas and disorders of the digestion,
and the fruit acid is particularly whole
some when hot weather sets up a compli-
cation with liver troubles. Now and for
several weeks to come is the opportunity
to make up this easily prepared tonic.
Coddle the blackberries in a tall stone jar
that is set within an iron kettle, put suth-
eient hot water in the kettle, but none in
the jar. When the fruit has cooked quite
soft strain it through thin flannel bag,
first wetting the bag thoroughly in hot
water. To each two quarts of the juice
add one pound of sugar and oae-haK ounce
of each of the following ground spices !:
cloves, cinnamon and allspice, with half
ounce grated nutmeg. Boil spices, syrup
and sugar together, the spices in thin
null bag. Skim the syrup until it begins
to look rich. About fifteen minutes is
sufficient time, When cold add one pint
of whisky or brandy whisky is just as
good. as all that is wanted is the amount
of alcohol to preserve the cordial to this
proportion of fruit juice. Put an addi-
tional halfpound of sugar into the cold
syrup after adding the whisky. Bottle
Immediately and cork tightly. Instead of
the other spices you may use cloves and
nutmeg alone, in increased quantity. A
tablespoonful of blackberry cordial for a
grown person is the dose.

Built That Way.

A camel's hind legs will reach anywhere
over his head, around his chest and on
his hump, even when lying down an evil
disposed animal will shoot out his legs and
bring you to sitting posture. His neck
is of the same pliancy. He will chew the
root of his tail, nip you in the calf or lay
his head on the top of his hump. He also
bellows and roars at you whatever you are
doing-saddling him, feeding him, mount
ing him and unsaddling him. To the I'M
initiated camel going for one with his
mouth open and groaning horribly is a
terrifying spectacle, but do not mind him,
it is only his way. He hardly ever bites
but when he does you feel it for some
time. As matter of fact we only once
had man laid up from bite in the hand,
but he had to go into the hospital for it.
have heard of one or two men having a
leg broken from a kick at various times,
but it was the exception and not the rule,
for camel is really very docile ANIMAL
and learns to behave himself in the most
trying positions with equanimity though |
fear it is only the result of the want of
brains.-C Count GLeichen.

Each man has some part to play
The past and the future are nothing
In the face of the storm today.

Your future has deeds of glory,
Orhou0r God grant it may
But your arm viii never be stronger
or the need - great as today.
Rise, II the past dolains you,
Her sunshine aud storms forget
No claims 50 unworthy to hold you
As those Of vain regret;
sad or bright, she is lifelcSs forever,
Cast her phantom arms away.
Nor look back save to learn the lesson
ora nobler strife today.

Mr.. James s. Mexican took lunch with Chair

BUTCHER'S Run SEWER.

Allegheny COunciImen Discuss \ Plan TO Re.

A special meeting of the Allegheny Commit
tee on Streets and Sewers was held last night
to consider the plans of City Engineer Ehlers
for the building of sewer or q surface water
course to relieve the Butchers run district.
Several residents and property holders Of the
neighborhood we're present for the purpose of
learning the intention Of the committee. Mr..
Ehlers had a number of excellent plans and
maps Of the district, showing the present loca-
tion of the land and the line Of the proposed
new water course.
They were explained and discussed in detail.
The entire length of the course would be from
O'Hara street to the river, a distance OF more
than 8 1000 feet. Its cost would be about $50 per
foot. The cost of a sewer would be about the
same The residents of the district spoke in
favor Of the proposed Improvement. They
cited the numerous times their property had
been damaged by heavy rains. when the water
lay in and about their residences, because there
was not sewerage to carry 1t of. They were
averse however, to paying any assessment for
the improvement alleging that they mad been
at enough expense already in repairing the
damage caused by the floods.
The committee decided to refer the question
to the City Solicitor as to the proper mode Of
procedure,

The City Once More Properly IrrndIated-
The General Committee Prepares n
Letter TO the Company.
The present difficulty between the carbon
settlers, linemen and the light company is said
to be due to the fact that the latter discharged
union men and retained incompetent non-
union workers. 1t is not likely, however that
the strike will be a prolonged one, as the Gen
eral Committee on Organization of Labor have
already taken up the electricians cause, and
preparations are being made to take such
stand as will, no doubt, effect the light COM
pany.
Chief Bigelow, Controller Morrow and Presi-
dent Ford, yesterday, with a view to ascertain
ing their opinion with regard to the action of
the light company, bus these gentlemen
evaded expressing any decided views on the
subject.
Secretary R. D. McGurnigle said:
The strike is settled so far as the company is
and when that is done we will have nothing more
to do with them. The Southside and Allegheny
lines will be in operation to- night and inside of
"A hours everything will be moving along as be-
fore. Some Of our new men are Inexperienced,
The strikers should have been satisfied with win
ming one strike and they are now finding out they
did wrong by striking second time.
A committee of the General Committee of
Labor Organizations was in session until a late
hour last night, and, after due discussion pre-
pared the following letter, which will be for
warded to-day:
