Selecting Cigars bx Color.

One of the most absurd fads of the
cigar trade is that of color in reference
to havanas. The idea prevails that color
is indicative Of strength. 1t is no such
thing A light or medium colored cigar
is not necessarily mild or medium in
favor, for the simple reason that the
color refers to the outside wrapper only,
which in itself is of very thin substance,
and in quantity is of very small proper
tion to the other materials that make
up the cigar. AS matter of fact, the
filters and bunch wrappers will deter
mine the body or strength of the cigar.
The actual strength or otherwise of the
inner body of the cigar-viz, filters and
bunch wrappers-is too often an un-
known quantity. 1t is quite true that
statement may be made that these
parts are so-and-so or mixture of this
and that and give a certain ash, etc. +,
but this explains nothing. Not only are
there various grades of the same tobacco
in relation to quality, but there are also
a variety of grades that determine
strength. With the exception that Ger.
tain tobaccos have varying degrees Of
body or otherwise, mild, medium OF
full cigar is largely a matter of chance.

Parnsip Complexion.

1t does not require an expert to detect
the sufferer from kidney trouble. The
hollow cheeks, the sunken eyes, the
dark, puffy circles under the ewes, the
ssllow parsnip- colored compile xion in
dicatee it.
A physician would ask if you had
rheums,Ism, dull pain or ache in the
hack or over the hips, stomach trouble,
desire to urinste often, or a burning or
caldine in passing j.; if after passing
there is an unsatisfied feeling as if it
must be at or ce repeated, or If the urine
has brick dust deposit or strong odor.
When these symptoms are present, no
time shonld be lost in removing the
cause.
Delay may lead to gravel, catarrh of
he bladder, il hammsticn, causing sop
page and sometimes re quiriDg the draw
ing of The uri with ins ruments, or
may run into Brieh.'s D sesse, the most
dangerous state q kidnev trouble.
DR.. kilmer's Swamp rot. the great
discovery of the eminent kidnev and
bladder specialist, is positive remedy
for such diseases. Its reputation is
world wide and it is 30 easv to get at any
drug store that no one need suffer any

His Idea of Scoring.

At country cricket match in Lanark
shire local farmers boy was appoint
ed scorer, his duties being carefully ex-
planned to him. The first inning was
not very productive of runs and soon
came to an end, and every one made a
rush for the scorer. Judge of their sur
prise, however, when they found that
not a single mark had been made in the
carefully ruled book that had been pro-
vided.
When reproached in somewhat strong
terms, the boy was not in the least dis
concerted, but, with the most ingenious
air in the world, said:
81 was sac eenterested in the sport
that quite forgot to max the crosses.
But it disna matter-that wee laddie
wi the red face is the smartest runner
among ye. London Tit Bits.

OIL PAINTINGS.
How to Remove the AccumulatiOns
of Dirt and Dust.

HOW TO remove the Accumu ulat1OnB
of Dirt and Dust.
Oil paintings become dark and dingy
primarily through the accumulation of
dust and dirt ON them and to the prod
uots of bad combustion. SCOT, dust and
smoke tend to darken the pictures lit
tie each year, and in the end they are
very different from the originals. This
accumulation should be first removed
by washing the picture carefully with
water and fat soaps. Soaps with acids
in them injure the painting. After all
the dirt possible is removed in this way,
the picture should be cleaned with lit
tie ammonia. A wash composed of 12
parts of pure rainwater and one part of
spirit of sal ammoniac will be most
satisfactory for this work. The ammo
MAC will be sufficiently dissolved in the
water to make it harmless SO far as in
juring the painting is concerned, but it
will be strong enough to remove good
deal of the yellow tinge on the picture
which is due to smoke.
1t will be astonishing to many what
change can be effected by good
washing of an old picture with soar
and water, and then with diluted sal
ammoniac. The two combined will
often restore an old painting to its pris
tine beauty and clearness. Voice.

How to Choose Fish.

The eyes of fish, if fresh, are bright,
the gills of a fine, clear red, the body
stiff and the odor not unpleasant
Chloride of lime will restore fish that is
not extremely fresh, but it will never
be as good as when it has not been kept.
Salmon and cod should have a small
head, thick shoulders and small tail
The flesh Of salmon should be Of a
bright red color, the scales very bright.
Do not buy mackerel unless quite fresh
and do not attempt to keep it even un-
til the next day. Cod may be kept "a
hours and soles the same. Eels should
be bought alive. Grabs and Holsters
should be very heavy and very stiff. If
they are limp, they are stale. Oysters,
if fresh, will close forcibly on the knife
when opened, and if the shell gapes in
the least degree the oyster is losing its
freshness. When dead, the she'll remains
open.
