Z propriate Ceremonies.

h propriate Ceremonies.
The last rail on the Ofsten railway,
which crosses Northern Sweden and
Norway from the Gulf of Bothnia to
the Atlarf.ic, was laid, with much fes-
.tivity, on the afternoon of Oct 2.
The flags of Sweden and Norway fiut-
tered at the boundary line. where the
last rails were laid. When this was
completed, about O'clock in the even
ing, Chief Engineer Viull, of the Nor
wegian division, with hiA staff Of as
sfstantss approached the line and
ciasped hands with Lieut.. Fogeimark
and the Swedish engineers. Mr.. Viull
thereupon made3a short address, fol-
lowed by q three times three cheer
from the Norwegians. Lieut.. Fogel-
mark then responded. In the mean
time q terrific salute Of twenty-one dy-
Mantle charges was fired from the adj
Joining fountains, j: which echoed and
re:echoed in q monster chorus. The
Swedes were somewhat disappointed
because Chief Engineer G, +. Sund-
berg, who visited the scene In THE
morning. did not conside the AFFAIR Of

Red Snow.

In the arctic regions early explorers
were astonished to find large quantities
of red snow but the phenomenon is
now familiar to men of science, who
know that red snow, like a green gar.
den fence, is due to the presence of
unicellular algae, the only difference
being in the coloring matter of the pro.
toplasm. It is said that acres of snow
are frequently covered in single
night by these tiny plants.-Good

&Landstad's Centenary.

Norway celebrated Oct. z, the CEN
tenary Of the birth Of the Rev. Mag
nus Bostrup Landstad. Every Nor
wegtan knows "Landstad's Psalme-
bog. He began in 1852, just nifty
years ago, to collect and edit material
for q psalm book for Norwegians, the
first work of it's kind. OF course the
people, sang in churches before that,
but they were not Norwegian songs,
having been borrowed from Denmark.
He modernized the old hymns, intro
dtced Norwegian words and grammat-
ical instruction, the old Morse songs
and melodies, setting the words with
q rich poetic fancy and great purity of
dtction. His psalm book gave an in
dlviduality to the Norwegian Ian
guage, and ranks in Importance in
this, respect with the works of Welha-
ven, Wergeland, Bjornson and 1bsen.

HOUSEHOLD NOTES.

Dipping fish into lemon juice before
cooking is said to keep the flesh white.
Packing winter apples in dry sand
is recommended by those who have
tried il.
If your horse or COW gets injured by
barbed wire try this; Mix one ounce
of the chemically pure liquid carbolic
acid in ten ounces of pure raw linseed
oil. and thoroughly wet the spot that
is denuded Of skin every day with it.
The skin will grow over the spot from
the edges. Do not wash off at all.
Insufficient cooking of cocoa &C.
counts for the fact that as drink it
fails to agree with some people. In
all cases, whatever the directions OF
the box prescribe, cocoa should be
cooked at least ten minutes before the
milk is put in. After that it should
be allowed to scald, never to boil. A
drop of vanilla in each cupful will i'm
prove the flavor for most persons, and
some like with it tablespoonful Of
strong coffee.

Lemons Put TO Good Use.

Lemon juice removes the stains
from the hands.
Lemon juice (outward application)
will allay the irritation caused by the
bites of gnats and flies.
The finest OF manicure acids is
made by putting teaspoonful OF
lemon juice in cupful of warm water.
This removes most stains from the
fiugers and nails, and loosens the
cuticle more satisfactory than can be
done by the use Of sharp instrument.
Lemon juice and salt will remove
rust stains from linen without injury
to, the fabric. Wet the stains with
the mixture and put the article in the
sun. Two or three applications may
be necessary if the stain is of long
standing, but the remedy never fails.

Is is conducted by DR.. Pierce, of Buffalo,
N. ", that it has to deal so many times
with the disappointed hopes of women
who have failed of the happiness OF
maternity. But it is one of the glad
privileges of this same medical cores
pondence bureau that in the greater
number of such cases, the obstacles to
maternity are overcome by the establish
ment of the womanly health.
Not infrequently women write that
they feel perfectly we'll and cannot
understand why they are denied the
maternal happiness which they desire:
Such women learn that feeling we'll and
being well are widely different matters.
Few women are by nature debarred from
the happiness of maternity. In the
majority of cases DR.. Pierce's Favorite
Prescription, supplemented by his free
medical consultation by letter, are suf-
6cieut to establish the womanly health
and remove the obstacles to maternity.

UncroWned Queens.

In the original meaning of the word
every woman was a queen, for the word
queen meant woman. In mOnarchic
countries the wife of the king became
the Gueen--He woman. In America we
give the word back its original meaning
and every woman becomes queen.
The crown of womanhood is maternity.
Every healthy woman looks forward to
marriage. Every wife looks forward to
motherhood as the crown of wifehood.
And vet there are many uncrowned
queens; women who because the desire
for children is unrealized feel that they
have missed the full regal height of
womanhood.
1t is one of the sad features of large
bureau of medical correspondence such
