NICE TO KNOW.

the simple remedy of raising the right

A sensible suggestion for the use
of an invalid Is to purchase desirable books
of the publisher before they have been
stitched for binding. In this way few
pages can be taken up at one time, and as
they are light and open out readily, very
weak hands can hold them.
Another advantageis is thatdifferent men,
bers of the family can read the books
at the same time: one beginning and the
rest following in order. Paper covered
books may be divided in the same way.

REVIVAL OF AN OLD FAD.

" HE old-fashioned fad of collecting
Wv buttons-oniy in those days We
didn't Call such things fads-has
broken out again in a little Gif-
ferent way, to be sure, though
there is every indication that we shall soon
be exhibiting strings of buttons" charm
strings" was the Old name, wasn't it? just
as We used to do. AT present the craze has
confined itself to the collecting of the but
tons worn Us insignia of one kind or
another. The G. a. R. button, the cam
paign button, the bicycle club button, and
all the rest, together with those gotten out
by various firms as advertisements, are
eagerly seized upon by the collectors, who
are for the most part the Juvenile men,
bers OF the family, though the elders have
become interested in the matter as well.
Merchants complain that they are besieged
by customers for buttons of all sorts, and
find 1t hard to refuse A few people make
collections of historic buttons or buttons
from various countries, but most of the
collectors simply aim to get as large
and varied an assortment as possible,
caring little for beauty or uniqueness.
Probably before long the charm button"
will also be revived. This, if memory fail
not, was certain button known only to
the owner of the charm string" If it
was touched by anyone in examining or
handling the string the penalty of new
button was instantly demanded.

birthday last week. Although fast ap-

is almost us hale and hearty as her grand
