LADIES’ HOME JOURNAL FOR 1896, In a dainty booklet printed in light blue, salmon-pink and gray tones—a_ splendid illustration of the beauties of art applied to printing—The Ladies’ Home Journal announces some of its leading literary and artistic features for 1896. There will be a series of papers upon the domestic and social side of Washington by General A. W. Greely, U. S. A.; another by ex-Presi- dent Harrison, telling of “This Country of Ours”; a third by Mary Anderson de Navarro, who writes of her stage exper iences, her struggles for recognition, and artistic triumphs, with a supplemental article telling of her life and surroundings to-day. Ina lighter vein, Mary E. Wil- kins will present a series of “Neighbor hood Types” papers, pen piciures of quaint and familiar personages—-New England ers; and Jerome K. Jerome will reflect Old England lite ina number of “Stories of the Town”—stories of London—in his inimitable, crisp style. “William the Con queror,” Rudyard Kipling’s most fascinat- ing romance, is also among the features for 1896, und Julia Magruder’s delightful serial, “The Violet,” will continue through a considerable portion of the year. Be- sides these two popular authors, there will be short stories by Bret Harte, Lilian Bell, lan Maclaren, Sophie Sweet, Frank RK. Stockton, Sarah Orne Jewett, R. C. V. Meyers, Will N. Harben, Caroline Leslie Field, Jane Austen (posthumous) and other prominent writers, Dr. Parkhurst

will write a series of forcible articles for young men, applicable to their daily life, while the girls will be

written to by Mrs A. D. T. Whitney, and Edith N. Thomas, the gifted poetess, will be represented hy her finest verse and

prose. James Whitcomb Riley will cou- tribute a number of poems, varied in theme and treatment. In its musical of-

feriugs the Journal will be unusually re- plete. Among the best things promised is a minuet by Paderewski, the famous pianist; a waltz by Jobn Philip Sousa, the “March King”; compositions by Sir Arthur Sullivan, compo-er of “Pinafore,” “Mikado,” etc.; Reginald de Koven, com- poser of “Robin Hood,” “Rob Roy,” etc.; Edward Jakobowski, Bruno Oscar Klein and others. There will be instructive musival treatises by Mme. Meiba, Mme. Blauvelt, Mme. Clementine de Vere Sapio, Mrs. Hamilton Mott, Miss Maud Poweli, Benjamin Davies, Charles Adams, Thomas a’Becket, Frederic Peakes, George Chadwick and others.

Artistically the Journal gives rich pro- mise, and during the next vear will present several groups of Kate Greenaway’s bonnie little people; Coarles Dana Gibson’s §best work on new lines and some of Albert Lynch’s newes creations. W.L. Taylor, W.T. Smedley, W. Hamilton Gibson, Alice Barber Stephens, William Martin Johneon, Eric Pape, W. A. Rogere, Reg- inald Birch, Frank O. Small, B. West Clinedinst, T. de Thulstrun, A. B. Frest, E. W., Kemble, Irving R. Wiles, Abby E. Underwood and other artists of such com- manding prominence will coutribate their finest drawings. In its departments the Journal promises to be stronger than ever, and more comprehensive ir its scope of practical infermation. In this direction it will print a series of illustrated articles on home building, giving plans and details for the construction of medium-sized houses. The Ladies’ Home Journal for 1896, in fact, will be complete, and unique- ly so.

Jennings, of Gilford, Ont., says: “I epent between $200 and $300 consulting dootors; I tried all the ‘treatments’ without benefit. One box of Chase’s Catarrh Cure did me more good than all the remedies. A 25c. box cured me.” Don’t waste money. Chase’s Cure, with improved blower, 25c. It cures.

Miller’s Emuisisn of Cod Liver Oil is the outcome of the latest scientific re searches. There was always a prejudice against taking cod liver oi] on account of .ts disagreeable taste, but Miller’s Emul- ion is agreeable to the palate, and that Is ne reason why it has become so popular with the medical fraternity, the hospitals of the country and the households where- ever consumption orlung troubles prevail. Miller’s Emulsion is the great nerve strengthener and blood maker, and cures Coughs, Collis, Bronchitis, Serofala and al] Lung affections. In big bottles, 50c. and $1, at all drug stores. ©

Counterfeits

A few years ago a great ma le.

Unprineipled persons are trying to prey upon and dupe people who are led ,to ask fur kidney treatment.

Some of the methods adopted by imitat- ors are as follows:

discovery was

First—To imitate the size, color and shape of Dodd’s Kidney Pilis and sell them by court. ;

Second—To put them up to appear very nearly the same and to be offered at the same price.

Third—To hook on the word “kidney” in naming cathortic pills so as to increase sales of mere physic.

Fourth—To givea name so near to Dodd’s that unwary people may be deceiv- ed and think they are getting Dodd’s.

Look out for such dodges. When you want kidney medicine you want the best. And ought not to be the subject for any

trick So beware. The average yearly sunshine in Eng-

land, according to a recent work by Dr. Van Bebhier on meteorology and hygiene, is 1,400 hours, in Germany 1,700, in Italy 2,300, and in Spain 3,000. London aver- ages 23 hours of sunshine out of a _possi- possible 100, and Madrid 68. As GentLe as Wixe.—To drink inferior whiskey is heroic treatment for human ill.

Laid Low by Indigestion.

il was so run down I had to give up

work. Scott’s Sarsapariila the kind that cures.

Indigestion or dyspepsia is the bane of thousands, andis one of the most de- pressing of afflictions. It arises from an impure or impoverished conditiog of the blood, which weakens the digestve and assimilative organs, &ndering them in. capable of performing their natural func- tions, and it neglected, the sufferer loses flesh, complains of exhaustion afterslight exertion, and becomes rapid®y debilitated.

Mr. Wm. W. Thompsoa, a prominent resident of Zephyr, Ont., ina letter dated Aug 12th, 1895, says: ‘‘It gives me great

leasure to testify to the fact that Scott’s Cereapartite has caused a most remark, able change in my condition. I was so much run down I had to give up work

and felt as if life were net worth living. |

Mr. Dafoe induced me to try Scott’s Sar- sapavilla, and after taking four bottles | am now feeling as I farmerly did years aze, and I want.to say for the benefit of those suffering from indigestion and feel- ing, to use slang phrase, ‘completely knocked out,’ don’t despair until you give Scott’s Sarsaparilla a fair trial.” :

Many long years they had _ re- gard to his directions in the work assign- “<i them. They felt the ferce of his ex- ‘eptional character as he superintended their labor and also pyeached to them of luty and of danger. It is easy to believe he selected those not in the fallest sympathy with the cor-

worst elements of society and prctection against it, and they may have been sub- jected, because of their rela ions to him, io something of the same scorn he ex- perienced. Their contract with him and his words of warning doubtess awakened clear convictions of responsibility aud interest, but they failed to heed his teachings, yielded to the multitude of evil-doers, and when the door was shut

This One Works on a Scries of Springs— ;

1 Puncture will do no Daimaze.

The pneumatic tire, with all its merite, has the great drawback that when an accident overtakes it, the wreck is total for the time being. A little tack or a piece of glass or jagzed stone renders the cyclist helpless miles away from home or the nearest repair shop, an:i ualessthe is one of those genuises Who can mend anything from a watch to an engine, there is a weary walk homeward with a

crippled wheel to carry. There is some merit to the new tire that is made half of cork, and there is a tire thas is filled

with little rubber balls, so that a punc- ture of any portion of the tiro does net make useless the whole affair.

A Canadian has perfected a radical de-

parture, that many cyclists pronouuce very prac‘ical, especially for long tours. Within the rubber tire is placei a_ series of strorg yet sensitive wire springs.

This tire runs sz.oothbly. the outer surface causes

though it should, be proinptly repaired. This the cyclist cando himself. The weight of the spring is less than two pounds,

Abolish the Ward System,

The proposal to abolish the ward sys- tem in cities and towns is beginning ta attract some attention in Ontario. Ata recent meeting of the Brantford Board of Trade, T. H. Preston brought up the matter for discussion, and, after a num- ber of prominent citizens had exeressed themselves favorably, a resolution was adopted endorsing the principle. In sup- porting the motion, Mr. Preston pointed out that there are many able men who could not be returned from their own wards that the city as a whole would be glad to elect, and that there were many men Who get into the council through the ward system that never wouid be heard of in that eonnection if the wards elected but one man each, or the choice had to be made by the city as a whole. An objection to the present system was the inequality of the franchise. For ex- ample, A owning $10,000 of property in one ward couid vote for but three alder- men, While B owning $5,000 of property, scattered over five wards, had fifteen votes. This was an absolute absurdity, which his plan, if ad@ted, would entirely remove. Another advantage, mentioned by Mr. Heyd, would be a re- duction of the influence of the ward poli- tician, thus giving additional importance to the aldermanic position.

Power, Light, Heat,

Great Falls, Mont, is city. Not only are its street cars propel led and lighted by electricity, but they are heated by electric radiators placed in each car. Elevators, printing presses, cranes, and all kinds of machinery, are operated by electrical force. There are automatic electric excavators, electric pumps and electric rock-srushers. It is not unusual to see on the streets a mortar mixer attached to an electric wire lead- ing down froma pole. The restaurants cook by electricity, the butcher employs

run by electri-

it to chop his sausages, the grocer to grind his coffee. Electricity is l#ked

upon as a welcome lessing

home; the hous:wives run their machines and hea’ their flat-irons by electricity; they their cakes in wooden electric cake ovens that can be set away on the shelf hke pasteboad boxes. They have electric boilers, broil

ers, and tea-ketitles. The hydraulic works and power houses are erected about three miles from the city on the banks of the Misso uri.— Montreal Star.
