All Aboard!

Make haste. Your baggage is all right, but
have you got a supply of Hostetters Stomach
Bitters? No! Then you have made a sad
omission, and if you are troubled with stomach
ic qualms en- route-if you are sea sick, my dear
sir, or madam, you will have deserved your
fate. How dreadfully the waves or the Earring
of the engine OR screw shakes you upl Now
here is mute but awful call to the ships SIDE
Now, if you had the Bitters along with you this
wouldn't happen. Travellers and tourists, take
ing or ocean voyage. your coaSt-wiSe trip or
inland outing, obtain the Bitters, and thus
fortify yourselves against stomachic difficulties
in rough weather or bad diet or water. Take
it, too, for biliousness, kidney trouble and
rheumatism jy2eod&w1w

ON LAYING LINoLBUMs.

ON LAYING LINOLBUAIS .,;
While it is difficult to follow system
in fitting oilcloths and linoleums, a few
cardinal rules must be observed, and we
venture to suggest them; In cutting
linoleum from a diagram allow an inch
at the ends. If it is not to be laid at
once allow also fraction on the width,
for shrinkage is probable both ways.
Get the diagram correct to the fraction
of an inch, so that if cutting must be
done for centrepieces or register holes
it can be done before the cloth is laid on
the room. Tack linoleum after butting
the edges evenly within an invisible
brad, say four inches apart, and if posi-
BILE line the edges with an adhesive
paste. Get the floor smooth by dress
ing the planks. Do not try to even it
up by laying strips of paper lining over
sinks in the floor. Nothing but jack
plane will serve. The future service of
the cloth will depend upon the floor be-
ing perfectly smooth. A nicely laid lin
oleum needs no binding, but should
binding be desired for sake of appearance,
use one-half-inch brass binding. Let
lnoleum, like oilcloth, lay face down
several days in the store before fitting it,
Another reason for having the cloth
made perfectly ready for the apart
ment is to avoid scratching the base
board with surplus cloth, and the GER
tainty of cutting the ends untrue. The
balance of the detail must be left to the
skill of the layer. We offer no antidote
for blisters and puffs which appear in
the centre of sheets of linoleum or oil
cloth. The manufacturer comes in
there. The seller had better lie low,
and hope that Mrs. Jones will not put
much stress on that g little swell,' for
he is powerless to help it.-Carpet and

THE GROWING CROPS.
What the Chicago Trade Bulletin
Has on the Subject.
Little Prospect at Present That There
viii be a Scarcity of Any
Kind.


Special to the Leaf-Cnronlcle.
CHICAGO, August 8.-The Trade
Bulletin has the following on the
growing crops: "While it is not ex-
pected that the United States will Sc
cure as large crops of grain as in 1891,
there is little prospect at present that
there will be sc Arcity of any kind.
True, the season generally has not
been as favorable as usual, and there
has been a reduction of acreage OF
some Of the spring sown crops, and
unusually heavy rains did consider
able damage in some sections. How
ever, the large area devoted tothe
production of cereals in the United
States can sustain some curtailment,
and the aggregate yield of all kinds
be sufficient to meet all requirments.
There will be fairly liberal supplies
lrried over from the crops of 1891.
The outlook for wheat indicates an
aggregate production of 525, 100000
bushels, and the surplus remaining
from last year is estimated at about
10000, 900 bushels. This calculation
would allow surplus of about 1885,
100000 bushels, or with ordinary sup
plies in first and second hands at the
close of the crop year, about 115,OOO,-
900 bushels for export-40, 900, 600
bushels less than exported during the
twelve months ending June 80, 1892.
The outlook for corn indicates a crop
not to exceed 1,70O,OOO,0O0 bushels,
and the lateness of the season will nc
doubt prevent the full development
of the grain-posibilities are that the
proportion suitable for commercial
purposes will be considerably below
the average. Oats, too, will be
smaller crop, owing to the backward
spring and wet weather-possibly
J 65O,OOO,OOO bushels may be secured
Rye will be harvested in fairly goot
condition, and the yield approximate
SO 100000 bushels. Barley is being
secured under rather favorable cir
cumstances, and the yield will proba
: bly, aggregate about 70,0OO,OOO bush
els. The grain will be less stained
than usual and the quality better"
