the marked characteristics of the paper,

MY DEAR SIR: 1t affords me great pleasure
to toin the long list of grateful patients who
have been relieved from troublesome and obsti-
nate complaints by your SUI erior skill Ny case
was chronic catarrh from which had suffered
to such extent that it weakened my general
health and finally gave rise to such severe pain
in aid about the head and throat that it pre-
vented me from sleeping and alarmed my fam
fly. AM happy to state that the very frs. ap-
pllcation of your treatment gave me prompt
and decided relief. In few days the pain had
disappeared and BY degrees the other Distress
ing symptoms Characteristic Of catarrh yielded
to your administrations, until now find my
self completely cured l therefore cheeriully
tender you this testimonial Of your skill and
success in the hope that others may be bene-
fitted by its publication II. P. DEGRAAF.

But it is not alone in numbers that the great
increase Of advertising is shown The larger
space required for advertisements during the
year 1889 as compared with that occupied in
1855 is even more striking.
The average daily space filed by advertise
ments in 1888 was Is 10 columns, or 777s columns
for the year; whereas for the year 1859 the daily
average was 2s.75 columns, or s22s columns ia

be remembered, consisted exclusively of ths
ordinary everyday business advertising, nothing
in the way of TAI sales poll lists election returns

vigor left her, she lived for you, her

descendants.
 "You, who together have shared her love and her care, know how we'll you have requited her. God forbid that con- science should accuse you of ingratitude or murmuring on account of the care she has been to you of late. When you go back to your homes be careful of your words and your example before your own children, for the fruit of your own doing you shall surely reap from them when you yourselves totter on the brink of the grave. I entreat you as a friend, as one who has himself entered the evening of life, that you may never say in the presence of your families or of Heaven, Our mother outlived her usefulness-she was a burden to us. Never! Never! A mother cannot live so long as that. No When she can no longer labor for her children, nor yet care for herself, she can fall like precious weight on their bosoms, and call forth by her helplessness all the noble, generous feelings of their natures.
 "Adieu, then poor, toil-worn mother; there are no more sleepless nights. no more days of pain for tn ee. Undying vigor and everlasting usefulness are part of the inheritance of the redeemed. Feeble as thou vert on earth, thou wilt be no burden on the bosom of Infinite Love, but there shalt thou find thy longed-for rest, and receive glorious sympathy from Jesus and his ransomed fold"

A New Violet Discovered.

s'It is the sweetest flower I ever knew" said Miss Brewing, the well known Baltimore florist, displaying 8 new violet just discovered by MT. A. P. Gordon Cumming, on his place, near Sykesville, Md. The foliage leaves on this violet are longer than the ordinary wild or cultivated violet. The flower leaves of the new violet are a soft white, striped or mottled with light and dark purple. Unlike the other culti- vated violets, the new one is single violet. All the cultivated violets have hitherto, without exception, been double. Single violets, until this dis covery of MT. Cummings, have been without perfume, but the Sykesville cultivated single violet has wealth of rich perfume which cannot be sur passed. Those wonderfully sweet plants, Daphne, Odora and Cleo Fragrans, do not give off more delightful odors than this new violet.-Baltinore Sun.

An Old Trip Around the Globe.

The trip which two women of New York city recently accomplished around the world prompts writer to recall the fact that the woman who first circumnavigatedt the world was mem- Der of Bougainville's famous expedi- ton around the world in 1766-'69, which occupied just two years and four months. Under the name of Bare, and in the disguise of man, this woman had taken passage upon the storeship L'Etoile as servant to Philibert de Commercon, the botanist. She bore the hardships and privations of the trip cheerfully and uncomplain- ingly, proving herself an intelligent assistant in all her masters scientific studies, and her sex was never sus- pected until the vessel reached Tahiti. Here the natives, with the keen intui. ton of savages, cried out in their dia- lect, s'It is a womanl" Bougainville subsequently, obtained from her full confession. She said she was an or phan, that she had served before in mems clothes and that the idea of a voyage around the world infamed her curiosity. He adds that she always behaved on board with the most scru- pulous modesty.-Toronto Empire.
