Among the most pernicious habits
of foolish1y tender mothers is that of
keeping a light in the room in which
little children are supposed to be try
ing to sleep for the night. 1t is true
that there may be now and then an
abnormally timid or nervous child,
for whom a light at such time is a
necessity, but the vast majority of in
fants are readily accustomed to going
to sleep in the dark, and the habit
once formed need not be broken over,
unless illness intervenes to overthrow
all rules and routine.

To keep the complexion and spirits

To keep the complexion and spirits
good, to preserve grace, strength and
agility of motion, there is no gymna-
SUM so valuable, no exercise more
beneficent in result than sweeping,
busting, making beds, washing dishes
and the polishing of brass and silver.
One wear of such muscular labor with
in doors, together with regular exer-
else in open air, will do more for wo-
mans complexion than all the lotions
and pomades that were ever invent
ed. Perhaps the reason why house
work does SO much more for women
than games is the fact that exercise
which is Immediately productive
cheers the spirit. 1t gives women
courage to go on living and makes
things seem really worth a while.

While at our other store at Big Island, Va
last April, was taken with very severe at
tack of diarrhoea. | never had 1t worse in my
life. I tried several o1d-time remedies, such
as Blackberry Wine, Paregoric and Laudanum
without getting any relief. My attention was
then called to Cham berlain's Collie, Cholera
and Diarrhoea Remedy by Mr.. r. c. Tinsley
who had been handling it there, and in less
than five minutes after taking small dose
was entirely relieved.-O. G. Burford, Harris

Before whipping cream for the top
of chocolate of coffee it is better
to add the white or an egg and ia
blespoonful of powdered sugar. Then
whip until stiff. In default of the
cream the white of egg, with powder
ed sugar lightly busted in, make the
drinks much more tempting than
when served plain. Whip very stiff
in either case and keep on ice till
wanted, which should be very soon
after being prepared.

The motto of the proprietors of Dr. Henry
Baxter's Mandrake Bitters is, "the greatest
good to the greatest number" and SO sell
large bottle of a valuable remedy for the
small price of 25 cents, and warrant every
bottle to give satisfaction or money refunded.

No kitchen slops, either from wash
tubs or dishpan must be thrown upon
the ground, or into that open drain
too often found at the back of the
house. Boarders should fly from a
place where this untidiness exists.
Organic waste testers in the hot sun,
and the saturated ground gives forth
incense fit for Beelzebub, god Of flies.
All household waste should be remov-
ed as fast as it gathers, and lightly
buried. In the dark laboratory Of the
earth noxious matter is turned at
once to sweet and wholesome uses.
Lawn and garden thrive on what is
fatal to man. But if this can not be
done, then the kitchen waste should
be burned two or three times day.
No standing pals of garbage should
be allowed to tempt flies and defile
the fragrant air.

send congress, relating to the attack upon the
Baltimore's sailors at Valparaiso, was not
sent in yesterday. In fact there is reason to be
lieve some days will elapse before the public
may know officially just what passed between
the department of state and Minister Egan
on one side and the Gillian minister of for
eign affairs and Minister Mont on the other.
The unofficial announcement of the prac-
teal completion of judicial proceedings in
Valparaiso and the intention of the CHILEAN
legal authorities to punish three Chilians con
victed of participation in the assault, has
given satisfaction here and is generally re-
garded as a distinct concession by Chill to
the United States, assuring that. there will not,
in all.prebability, be any further undue delay
in the disposition of the case. These tidings
have not, so far as can be learned, been Off
.ciaily, made known to Secretary Blaine by
Minister Mont, and it may be that the latter
will await the sentence of the convicted Chill
ians. before he presents to the secretary the
conclusions reached by the judicial authOri-
ties of bis country. With matters in this
promising condition, 1t is therefore unlikely
that any disturbing element will be intro
dtced in the e.Sp.iatiOns by the publication

Watchmaker's Strike.

ELG1N, January 5.-Three thousand oper.
atives of the Elgin National Watch Company
stand ready to strike, and only await the sig
nal. Several hundred skilled workmen in
two departments have walked out, and unless
all signs fail, the strike will become general.
Nothing else is talked of. Groups of men
met on every corner, despite the bitter cold,
and discussed the situation.
Two weeks ago there were rumors that a
general cut-down was contemplated by the
management. These rumOrs were verified
on the pay day following, when the employees
found their wages decreased from Is to 40
per cent. The employees of the jewelry room
at once quit work. They were then told by
the officials that the reduction would be made
up in the next pay roll and then the old scale
would be in force, but they were not satisfied
with this promise, and the one sentiment ex-
pressed is that a strike is inevitable. The as
sertiOn is also made that $500 employees Of
the Waltham Watch Company are organized
and about to strike on account of recent re-
ductiOn in their wages.
