car As composer Of Music.

For the last Is months the car has
been virtually a prisoner in one of
his own palaces and in the intervals
of state work he has solaced himself
with composing music and writing
verse. His poetry is melodious and
carefully polished and his music is
melancholy and inspired by a spirit Of
fatalism. Some three years ago some
of the cars poems were published
under the pseudonym of Olaf, with
music by his cousin. the Grand Duke
DiAssia, but he has himself set some
of his verses to music with a consider
able amount of taste and real knowl-
edge of harmony. Nicholas II. has a
fine collection of violins, of which he
is very proud.

Preserved Pears.

Pare them very thin and simmer
them in a thin strip, allowing one
fourth of pound of sugar to pound
of pears. Let them lie for two days,
then add another quarter of a pound
of sugar to pound of pears
and simmer again. Let them all lie
all night or longer if you wish, then
simmer them once more, adding one
half pound of sugar to a pound of
pears, making pound for pound.
The juice of lemon to four pounds
of fruit and a small part of the peel
is a good addition. The fruit may now
be drained and put in the sun to dry,
or they may be poured into the jars
with strip over them.

FIv Paper in the wrono place.

Almost everyone from the family
cat to grave and reverend seignors
manage to get affixed to fly paper dur
ing the season. To dislodge it apply
vaseline freely. Every time a fresh
sheet of fly paper is opened lay it on
a newspaper folded in two or three
thicknesses to a little larger dimen-
sions than the fly paper. Fold the
surplus an inch or so over like a
frame and fasten just to the edge of
the sticky portion, This weighs down
the fly paper so that it does not fly
on at every breath of wind and at
the same time enables one to lift 1t
about without sticking the fingers.

Best Method Of Treating the AIues st

Tumbles that result in broken
knees are a very common occurrence
in the nursery. Wash the place very
thoroughly with warm water and bor-
acic lotion in order to remove any
garvel, dust or bits Of stocking that
may have been forced into the wound
Battle always from the edges to the
center Of any wound; this gives in
finitely less pain Then dress the
place with a piece Of soft old rag
smearlng with cold cream; keep in
place with few twists Of band
age.
If a child is slightly burned Of scald-
ed, the first thing TO do is to relieve
the pain, and then apply a healing
ointment. To effect this, battle the
injured part with a strong solution
Of ordinary kitchen soda, apply zinc
ointment by means of well-greased
rags, then cover the whole with a
piece of cottonwood.
A grain OF dust is a very little
thing. but, like great many other
little things. is capable of causing a
very great deal of trouble.
Never try to remove IL with Z

Use for Worthless Stocks.

Or. Williams Pink Pills Cured This

Hundreds Of Other Cases OF
TOrnr~rex Ailments


Loss Of appetite, coated tongue, bad
taste in the mouth heavy dull headache
and a dull, sluggish feeling these are
the SYMPTOMS Of % oznach trouble. They
indicate that the stomach Is on a strike;
that it is no longer furnishing to the
blood the full quota of nOurishment that
the body demands, hence every organ
suffers.
There are two methods of treatment,
the old one by which the stomach Is
humored by the use of predigested foods
and artificial ferments, and the new one
by which the stomach is toned up to do
the work which nature intended of it.
A recent cure by the tonic treatment is
that OF Mrs. Mary Stackpole, Of 81
Liberty street. Lowell, Mass. She says:

stomach trouble and terrible backaches

The irony of fate is exempliiied in
the death in Paris of Professor Poir-
Ter, the eminent surgeon and cancer
expert. A friend declares that Poir-
Ter died of cancer, which he knew
for years past had marked him for
its victim. and tells a touching story.
During recent years Poirier had given
special attention to cancer cases and
it was owing to his works on the
subject and his representation be-
fore the Academy of Medicine of the
need of special effort to combat the
dread disease, that the cancer re-
search fund was opened in France,
the first subscription received being
10 900 francs from DR.. Baron Henri
De Rothschild.
Poirier did not devote all his time
to wealthy clients. Many poor suf-
ferers from cancers were treated by
him for nothing. One woman on
whom he had previously operated
without fee. and who had shown
her gratitude by sending flowers,
went to see her benefactor one day
last January in fear of fresh can
cerous growth. Poirier carefully ex-
