agitation and took her into loving conf
dence And when Ned came, grave and
pale to say MY father will see you,
Lucy Matte took the boy from his
mother arms and followed, after the first
words of reconciliation were spoken.
She found Ned holding his father hand
in closest grasp, while Lucy, leaning over
the great chair, softly bathed the clammy
brow, where the death-dews were gather
ing fast.

Effective Cough Cure.

A NEST excellent cough medicine is made
by putting heaping tablespoonful of fax
seed in a pint and half of cold water
Heat slowly and boil for fifteen minutes.
Strain; add the juice of large or ? small
lemons and sweeten to taste. A table
spoonful every hour or so will soon relieve
even severe cough If the lungs are
sore and the breathing difficult, it is well
to apply the following ointment: Into
tablespoonful of fresh, soft lard work
teaspoonful of turpentine. Spread on a
cloth, sprinkle it with salt and apply
directly to the lungs, covering with another
cloth to protect the clothing. This acts as
quickly, and is fully as effective as any of
the high, priced ointments sold in the drug
store for such purposes.
Another good ointment Soften
quantity of fresh lard and add an equal
amount of spirits of eamphor. Stir con
stantly, cooling the lard quickly, so that
as it hardens the camphor will be
thoroughly incorporated Keep in low,
open mouthed bottle or in tin salye box.
When needed for cold in the head, boar
seneSs. etc, rub the temples, nostrils,
throat, palms of the hands and soles of
the feet thoroughly, heating 1t in. Ii
necessary, apply on cloth to throat or
lungs

Danger in Tin Cans.

FEOul tllc oPutAA SSASANS ~'N"S-
Open can of peaches, apricots, cherries
or other fruit-for all fruit is acidulous-
let it stand for some time, and the fruit
acids and the tin are ready to do their
work of poisoning. A chemical knowledge
that tells just how the dangerous compound
is created is unnecessary to an avoidance
of the peril. The rule to follow is never
to make lemonade or other acidulated drinks
in tin bucket, nor allow them to stand in
a vessel of tin, and in the case Of canned
fruits or fish, Immediately upon opening
the can turn the contents out upon an cath
enware plate or into dish that is made of
earthenware or glass.
Fruits in Theoretically sealed cans, if
properly prepared, generate no poison. As
soon as opened the action in the tin, with
the aid of the atmosphere, begins, and in
a short time the result is deadly poison.
This brief statement of the question should
be remempered by every one, and its in
structon followed The general press also
should aid in disseminating this simple
knowledge.

How to Keep Cut Flowers.

1t is a mistaken belief that ammonia or
other drugs pnt in the water will prolong
the freshness of flowers, says the Gentle
woman. If the flowers begin to droop
they can sometimes be revived by placing
them in cool place or even on the ice for
a short time. By placing cut flowers in
refrigerator over night they can be kept
beautiful and enjoyed by day for much
longer time than if left in warm room all
the time. The cold delays the process of
ripening, which ends in decay. Loose
flowers keep longer than bouquets. But
all flowers need to have their stems slight
ly cut every day before being placed in
fresh water
