Care OF Feet.

Care OF h Feet
Those who are annoyed by excessive
perspiratien of the feet may add much
to their comfort. by bathing The feet once,
II possible twice, every day in warm
water CONTAINING a little ammonia. Bay
rum and diluted alcohol are likewise
beneficial. If the feet are very tender.
a small piece Of alum dissolved in the
water should be used. Chalk and
starch made Into d. powder are recon-
mended for rubbing feet that blister
easily.
Sometimes an offensive odor accom-
panies the perspiration. When such
cases are chronic, some disinfectant must
pc used as well as attention paid to- the
diet. A harmless disinfectant is boracic
ac.u or permanganate of po. ash. If the
acid is used, dissolve one ounce In a
quart of water. Of the potash use
twenty grains to u ounce of water.
The solutions may then be used by dip
ping the hose, which should be Of cotton,
into the liquid and drying them before
wearing. Another way is to wear cork
insoles that have been dipped in either
solution. The articles of diet to be
avoided are onions, cheese, and fish.
Such treatment, with frequent bathing
OF the feet, Is recommended for simple
cases Of this disorder. Oxide of zinc.
beginning with a very weak solution and
increasing the quantity used if necessary.
is recommended as a sure cure.
y celebrated French physician, NJ. Lee
gouN, recommends the following treat
ment when other methods fall: The
feet are first bathed in cold water for
several hours for two days, and then
painted with a compound made, from five
drains of glycerine, two ounces of solu-
tion perchloride of iron and forty drops
OF bergamot essence. The worst cases
are said to be generally cured after such
treatment twice a day for one or two
weeks. When the feet are continually
to be exposed to extreme cold, a pad of
curled hair, shaped like the sole of the
foot and wOrn inside the stocking, is
recommended.
Hints to ~Housekeepers.
MELTED butter is a good substitute for
olive oil in salad dressing. Many pre-
fer the butter to oil.
IN using yolks of eggs, it must be re-
membercd that a broken egg must be
closely covered in the dish in which it is
kept until desired for use.
~CURRANTs, berries, and juicy fruits,
having been washed, may BIO cooked
without water; then strain and boil the
juice fifteen or twenty minutes before
adding the sugar, and but little more
boiling will be required.
The smoked and dusty globes of chan
deliers may be nicely cleaned by soaking
then in hot water, to which a little sal
soda has been added. Then put some
ammonia in hot water, immense the
globes and scrub briskly with q stiff
brush. Rinse thoroughly and wipe dry.

10 the Trade.

NEW YORK, Oct. 4, 1se0.-The
tariff act, which goes into effect on
October 9Th, suddenly advances
the duty on musical instruments,
parts thereof and strings from 40 to
100 per cent above old rates. This
combined with a steady rise in the
European cost of goods for some
time back, absolutely compels all
importers to advance their prices.
Various American goods are also
affected, because Of higher duties on
imported material, parts, &C., used in
their construction.
AT a large meeting of the whole
salers of New York, Boston, Chicago,
Cincinnati, &c, the question as to
how and when to advance prices was
fully discussed, and it was unan-
imOusly decided to make the nee
essary advance at once, and to all
dealers without exception.
Any other plan VIII demoralize
the trade. A state of unsettled
market price would be wors than a
decided and stable advance.
We therefore, notify you that all
orders received by us after October
9Th will be filled at prices in &C.
cordance with the new tariff. Ex-
ceptions cannot be made.
Dealers will do well to mark up
their goods accordingly.
Respectfully,
AUGUST POLLMANN.

CANAL AROUND NIAGARA FALLS.
Favorable Report From the House Com
mittce ON Railways and Canals.

The House committee on railways and canals
has ordered favorable report on Representa-
tive Payne's bill providing for the construction
by the United States of a ship canal around
Niagara Falls. The route is to be along
one of the lines already sur
veyed, and definite location
is to be made by board of five men, to be ap-
pointed by the President, composed of two
army engineers. two civil engineers and one
distinguished citizen. Ten thousand dollars
is appropriated for the expenses of the
board and 100000 is appropriated to
begin the construction Of the canal under the
direction of the Secretary of War. The COM
mittee has listened to arguments upon the sub
ject by representatives Of lake shipping
make strong point upon the military neces-
sity for the canal. 1t will be urged that the
Welland, which now affords the only route
around the falls. is an English property and
would be closed against us in the event
of war. The depth of that
canal, which is thirteen feet, would also be
insufficient to permit Of the passage of our
war vessels. As a further reason in support Of
the passage of the bill it will be recited
that the Welland canal has been used as
means of discrimination against the ports of
the United States and in favor of the Canadian
export trade According to the plans sub
mitted the canal is to cost S23. 600, 00o which
will be really less than the cost of
the Welland canal, with its 13-foor
depth; while the new canal is to have a depth
of 2O13 feet The route is about % miles in
length and the locks are to be 400
feet long by so feet in breadth.
Otherwise the canal is to be sufficiently large
to permit of the passage of vessels which pass
through the st. Marys canal when the new
locks are completed

from Ottawa say that the Canadian government
has decided to guarantee the interest on
$4,000, 900 Of the bonds to be issued by the Win

ton Company for the construction of that
road. Hugh Sutherland, president of the COM
pany, and representatives of the British can't
talisis who are ready to put their money into
the scheme are at Ottawa completing the ar
rangements. Years ago the company secured
large grant in aid OF the road but failed to in

guaranteed the interest on several millions of
its bonds. Before the act could be utilized the
Greenway government returned to power and
secured its repeal. Since then the government
at Ottawa has been besieged ana a majority of
the members of parliament have been in duced
to sign petition in aid Of the road bill will
soon be introduced to guarantee the int rest on

LANDSLIDE.
A Train and Several Men Buried In a
Deluge of Earth.

ST. louisville. NY, April IA disastrous
landslide occurre ed on the the West Shore railroad
at Diefendorf hill, short distance east of this
place, about 9 O'Clock last night, An immense
mass of earth coming down and covering both
tracks. Freight train No. &c, east bound, drawn
by engine No. 63, ran into the obstruction.
Engineer Potter and three other trainmen were
buried IN the mud. A wrecking train was sent
from Frankfort with u large number of men
to the scene, where an immense amount of
earth, intermingled with broken beams and
debris, found piled in an unacceptable
heap. After several hours work Engineer Pot
ter was taken from the debris and resuscitated.
His injuries consisted of a very badly crushed
leg and several bruises on the head. Fireman
German was next reached. He was badly in
jured, but the full extent of his injuries could
not be ascertained. 1t is thought that he is in
ternally hurt. The head brakeman and another
train hand, whose name could not be learned
