BARGAINS IN FURNITURE.

The woman who loves mission furniture can
satisfy her desires and at the same time sIa'1s
the inherent feminine love of bargains by paying d
visit to the delightful shop of Joseph T. McHush

charming mission clocks in the collection anu soile
most ingenious card tables. Two or three nave re-
versibe centres, with felt on one SIDE ana "oou

refreshments when the game is over Ihere are
also some interesting desks-one double one
which can be used by either one or two persons.

Persons with nurseries to furnish ought TO see

no one in search of floor coverings should ran 10
see the rag rugs and carpets. After seeing these

PILLOWS FOR THE SICK.

in Around an Invalid.

There Is no problem more difficult
of solution than how to make long

comfortable for the patient.
Pillows. pillows. pillows. n score
or more of them Is the solution, says
the Circle. Not full sized heavy
feather pillows. but small light wool.
down. hair, or even balm cushions
are the comforts which ease the
patients tired muscles.
They should be in sizes ranging
from ten to eighteen inches in leng-
tn and from eight to twelve inches
wide, or they can be made square.
The larger ones are excellent If made
of hair and tufted like a mattress.
These little comfort cushions can
be slipped under the neck. at the
small of the back. under the knees
or heels, and placed where a tired
arm can rest comfortably upon them;
this for the patient In bed.
When the patient Is sitting up the
pillows can be tucked in all the hol-
lows, and are especially useful in
preventing that awful ache where
the bend of the knees rests against
the chair.
These small pillows also fit nicely
In the holows of the regular bed
pillows when the patient sits up
in bed, and they are convenient for
the nurse to rest her elbow or neck
upon if she has to support the pa
tient for any length OF time. A
good round dozen of these cushions
will not be too many ana they will
be found an Invaluable aid to both
nurse and patient.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they can
not reach the diseased portion of
the ear There is only one way to
cure deafness, and that is by CON
Stltutional remedies. Deafness is
caused by an infamed condition of

Tube, When this tube is infamed
you have a rumbling sound or i'm
perfect hearing, and when it is en-
tlrely closed, Deafness is the result,
and unless the inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to
Its normal condition, hearing will
be destroyed forever; nine cases out
OF ten are caused by Catarrh, which

Maine Man Up on Turn.ps.

The lobby of the Saco court room
has its usual number of story tellers
A venerable member of the lar told
the following story recently: A
young lawyer of the village of
Marshfield once came to Daniel
Webster and asked him what he had
better study to build himself up in
his profession. "Turnip seed" was
the laconic reply. The disciple OF
blackstone followed his advice. He
studied up everything that bore upon
the subject of turnips, until he be-
came master of the principles of
that vegetable. A year or two af-
terward neighboring farmer origi-
mated a new turnip, from the sale
of whose seed he expected to make a
fortune. Another neighbor began
to raise and sell the same seed and
a lawsuit resulted. The originator
of the seed came to retain Webster
to prosecute the case. Webster re-
piled: Il am not as we'll booked up
on turnips as / ought to be, but there
is a young fellow over at the village
who knows all about them. Go and
get him. He will win your case. "
The farmer posted off and engaged
Kim. When the trial came off the
lawyer, astonished the Judge, jury,
and audience. by his profounc learn
ing on the subject Of turnips. The
case was triumphantly won. and the
young lawyer started on the road to
fame and fortune.-Lewiston (Me.)

Flies and Mignonette.

"For those who object to wire
netting in the windows during the
summer, a new idea has been found
to prevent flies and such annoying
pests from entering the house.
This preventative is a window-box
of mignonette. 1t seems that the
insects do not care to face the odor
of this charming flower, so that it
is an effectual barrier against their
invasion. 1t sounds like very
pretty idea, and we may expect to
see ugly wire screens entirely dis.
carded and the windows decorated
with dainty boxes filled with the
sweet blossoms.
The above is clipped from an ex-
change, but we don't take any stock
in it. The mignonette scheme may
work all right early in the season,
but later on when the flies wake
up, the old wire screens will go in
lust the same. A fly can revel in
a manure heap and feast on carrion
of the rankest kind, and it is absurd
to say that he will turn his nose up
at a sweet little flower.
Mignonette is all right in Its
place, but don't depend on 1t to
keep the flies out.
