BOTH BOYS SAVED.

Louis Boon, q leading merchant OF
Norway, Mich, writes: "Three bottles
of Foley's Honey and Tar absolutely
cured my boy of severe cough, and a
neighbours boy, who was so i'll with a
cold that the doctors gave him up, was
cured by taking Foley's Honey and Tar. -

Hints.

A favorite amusement with my little
weather or illness, is to sit at the front
window and guess what will pass. One
decides it will be man, another dog,
and the next girl, and when it is near
meal time we add Father to the list. 1t
keeps them busy an hour II Mother will
play too, 30 often take my sewing and
join in the game.
Every deaf person should carry a
whistle. If the family make it an in
variable rule for some one to appear in
answer TO the whistle the one afflicted
with deafness will be pleased with the
result. 1t will prevent useless calling
and save many steps. 1t has been tried
and found most satisfactory.
Some of the signs by which to tell
good fruit and vegetables are here indi-
Gated. Oranges are sound and juicy
when heavy but not too hard. Rsdishes
and turnips when spongy are not fit to
eat. Pineapples are best when the edges
of the top are smooth; in inferior quail
ties the tops are of the saw-edged
variety. Celery is good when it breaks
without much bending. Asparagus
should be quite stiff. Nuts cannot be
judged very correctly until they are
opened, but they should be of good
weight, but not too hard to crack.
If after the application of a mustard
poultice the affected place is rubbed
with camphorated oil there is no likeli-
hood of incurring cold.
If lamp gets overturned, water will
be of no use in extinguishing the flames.
Earth, sand or -four thrown on it will
have the desired effect.
When sick room becomes stuffy, try
burning eau de cologne in red hot
iron spoon. 1t imparts delightful
fragrance which Is very refreshing to
the patient.
Avoid drinking the first water that
comes from the tap. for it has been in a
lead or iron pipe all night, and is, there
fore, unwholesome. This caution
should be remembered If the water is
boiled or not.

Lake Erie WAS III control or the enemy,
for England had already seen that her
hope of holding Michigan and the
northwest against the Americans lay
In the presence of powerful feet on
the lake. So the British commodore,
Barclay, had entered Lake Erie with
a formidable squadron Of six great
warships. mounting sixty-three guns.
TO offset this and gain possession OF
the lake, which was the key to the
British position In the northwest, a
Yankee feet of nine vessels SMALLER
than Barclays squadron and carrying
only fifty-four guns was fitted out and
placed under the command Of young
Captain Oliver Hazard Perry. Early
on the morning Of Sept. 10 the rival
fleets approached each other.
Perry's flagship was the twenty gun
brig Lawrence. named for the slain
captain of the Chesapeake. Besides
this. he had two more briggs, the Mag
ara and the Caledonia, five schooners
and q sloop. AS he bore down upon
the enemy Perry raised the Lawrence's
flag. At sight of II cheer broke

at a mile and half distance they

thus have the American feet at their
mercy. For two hours Perry. unable
to bring his guns into action on ac-
count of the distance. waS>forced to
endure this fusillade. The Lawrence
was shot to pieces.
Perry. spizing the Don't give up the
ship flag. leaped into an open boat
and was r0wed across to the twenty
gun Niagara. which was still In fairly
good condition. Seeing this move. the
British fire was centered on his boat.
But in time the perilous trip was COM
pleted. and Perry climbed unhurt
aboard the Niagara, from whose mast
