For Tired Feet,

plain much Of swollen feet, especially
nurses when they first go into hospital
service. A powder that is much used
in the German army for sitting into
the shoes and stockings of infantry
soldiers is useful for such cases. 1t
consists of three parts salicylic acid,
ten parts starch and eighty-seven parts
pulverized soapstone (steatite). This
keeps the feet dry, prevents chatting
and heals any sore places.
Soapstone alone is useful, but the
starch absorbs dampness. Soap is also
good, well rubbed over the stocking
sole.

a cloth wrung out in hot water. The
moisture causes the leather to stretch

LITERARY NOTES.
scrlbner's Magazine for July.


1.-The Martinique Pompeii'' is an article
inserted at the last possible moment WV
idly describing the appalling disaster ut
st. Pierre. Its author, DR.. James Robb
Church, of Rough Rider fame, accom-
panied the relief ship Dixie in his cap
acity as Assistant Surgeon L. S. Army.
DR.. Church saw everything, and pictures
not only the terrible desOlatlon but
some pathetic instances of family life
which the ruins revealed. He also gives
n somewhat novel explanation of the
disaster. This article Is strikingly per-
sonal in its impressions.
In the Review of Reviews for July the
issues of the great coal strike are pre-
sented from various points of view; the
editor, in "The Progress of the World"
reviews the position of the railroads and
the operators; an Illustrated account of
the methods of anthracite mining is con-
tributed by Mrs. ROsamond ID. Rhone, OF
Wilkes Barre; DR.. Talcott Williams gives
"a General View of the Coal Strike -
and II. Il. NewcOmb, editor of the Rail-
way World, furnishes important sta
tlstcal data relative to the anthracite.
earring railroads.
While the press has presented an end
less number of Illustrations of the Mont
Pelee disaster, the illustrations in the
July Cosmopolitan, printed on fine paper
with the most careful art, give clearer
idea of just what that disaster means than
anything hitherto presented.

Notwithstanding the early frosts and
the March weather of May and June
there is one Vermont crop that promises
big things this fall, and that is apples,
says the experience station bulletin.
Apples at 50 barrel taste too
strongly of money to digest easily and
since early last fall of last year that has
been the average cost per barrel to the
consumer. The prospect for an I'M
usually large crop is good in this part
of the state and more particularly in
Grand Isle county which is a great
apple growing district Chlttenden
county furnished good many apples
last fall to the markets and the buyers
snapped up everything in sight, so that
local consumers suffered famine.
Should present indications be full
filled, the apple appetite among the ma
tves at least will be salts fled, although
it is entirely unlikely that any thing
like last falls prices will be reached for
the product.
