In some conditions the gain from the use of Scott’s Emulsion of cod-liver oil is rapid. For this reason we put up.a Soc. size, which is enough for an ordinary cough or cold or useful as a trial for babiesand children.

In other conditions gain musi be slow, sometimes almost imperceptible,health can't be built up in a day. For this Scotts Emulsion must be taken as nourish- ment, food rather than medicine, food prepared for tired and weak digestions.

CATS AS BAROMETERS:

SHE HAS MANY iNFALLIBLE WAYS OF FORECASTING THE WEATHER.

Watch Her Yourself and See—Onut-of- the-Way Superstitions About Her in all Countries—The Cat on Noah's Ark.

Pussy has always had the reputa- tion of being weatherwise. There have been those who assert that she is not only a weather prophet, but that she has a paw in the making of the winds that blow and the rain that falls on the just and unjust with strict im- partiality. Should the family cat be with her back to the fire, look out for s)ualls, especially if you step on her tail. Should she wash derself calmly and smoothly, you may venture out without your umbrella, but should tabby lick herself against the grain or

wash her face over her left ear, your goloshes, mackintosh and umbrella will Le necessary. As a household

is worth her meat useful- Sailor

barometer the cat and milk, not to mention her ness as a rat and mouse hunter. folks not on!y believe in pussy’s well- known abilities to foretell the weather, but they are persuaded she has some- thing to do with the making of it. As a rule they very much prefer rats on board ship, but having for any reason a feline passenger, they are very care- ful togive her the best of treatment. If somebody is foolish enough to wish to raise a blow, all that is necessary is to throw a cat overboard. There is a sailor’s proverb to the effect that a cat will not die in water, and, while swim- ming around, her paws disturb the surface, hence the name cat’s paws for little ripples. In the same way a large flurry is called ‘‘cat’s skin,” while a popular name for a stormy northwest wind in some parts of the world is a “cat's nose.” Belief in pussy’s control of the weather secures her extra con- sideration on wash days in Germany. Should it rain when the house-mother has alarge washing on the line it is an infallible sign that she has illtreated or neglected the cat, and the animal has a spite against her. The Dutch girls have a harmless superstition that a rainy wedding day is the resylt of the bride’s having been so absorbed in the wedding preparations that she has forgotten to feed the cat. In the Tyrol they say that girls who are fond of cats marry early. Perhaps all the girls there are devoted to cats; they all seem to be wives and mothers at Juliet’s age. Some people cannot abide cats. Sucha one, it is said, particularly if he has allowed his dislike to take the practical form of the midnight flying bootjack, will surely be carried to his grave ina howling storm. Such is pussy’s re- venge. Perhaps thisinstinctive hatred which often follows pussy even in these regenerate days, when cats’ rights are protected by the majesty of the law in collars and the S. P. C. A., may be a heritage of the medieval times when the devil was said to prowl about at night in the guise ofa black cat. To this day a superstitious horror attaches to a black cat, and many people be- lieve that bad luck will follow if a harmless black pussy happens to cross their path In Germany if you dream ofa black cat at Christmas it is an omen of some alarming illness. There are all sorts of superstitions about the medical value of cats. Three drops of a black cat’s blood was believed to be acure for croup. It is quite possible that a lingering faith in this cure may be found in the remoter districts of Pennsylvania, settled by the Dutch. Black cats are there said to cure epilepsy. but it is not specified how the cats shall be applied—whether raw, boiled, sliced or whole. There is a comparatively unexplored mine of folk- lore about cats in Scotland. There they used to cure erysipelas by cutting off half a cat’s earand aliowing the blood from the wound to drop on the diseased part. When a cow or other animal was taken ill one effective cure was to make a double yoke of straw and put the head of the cat through one side and that of the diseased animal through the other. What the immedi- ate result was may easily be imagined by anyone who has seen the average frightened pussy struggling and scratching to free herself from the un- welcome bonds. When a Scottish family moves the house cat must be taken along and thrown into the new abode before any member of the fam- ily will enter. It is believed that if any disease or curse has been left in the house it will fall on the cat and thus save the family. In Ireland, on the contrary, the cat muston no ac- count be taken to the new house. It will be most unlucky for the family to take her along, especially if they have to cross water. This may have some- thing todo with the fact that immi- grants never bring cats with them, though they may sometimes bring dogs. May has always been considered an unlucky month for cats. A cat born in May will be inclined to melan- choly and much addicted to catching snakes and bringing them into the house, says an old book on the subject. [f the cat sneezes put herout. Should she sneeze thrice in the house the whole family will be taken down with the influenza. Speaking about sneezes, there’s a legend to the effect that we owe pussy toa sneeze. It seems that “ats were not among the animals taken on board the ark. Noah having got well out to sea discovered that mice were playing the dickens with things, especially in the grain bin. A little more and there would be no Johnny oake for breakfast. In this extremity Noah prayed for relief, and behold, the lion sneezed and forth from his nostrils was discharged a cat, who set to work at once and drove every mouse into a

hele. The hole habit they contracted on the ark has remained with the mouse If this le-

family ever since. send seems a bit too tough for diges- tion, just take a look at pussy’s whis- xers. ‘They will show you her relation to the king of the beasta.

SKIN DISEASES!

One Remedy Which has Neyer Falled— Tried and Tested Ointment.

Because other alleged remedies for piles, secrofula, eczematic eruptions, scald head, chafing, black heads, salt rheum and skin diseases generally have proved useless, don’t condemn Dr. Chase's Ointment. It has never been known to fail. For instance, Nelson Simmons, Meyersburg, Ont., writes:

“IT used Dr. Chase’s Ointment for Itching Piles, and can recommend it highly. Since using it I have had perfect freedom from the disease.”

Peter Vanallen, L’Amable, Que., had the eczema for three years. He tried three doctors, but received no benefit- Oxe box of Dr. Chas@s Ointment and three boxes of Dr. Chase's Pills cured bim completely. Large scales covered bis legs nnd body, but the Ointment soon removed them. He will swear to these facts.

CARE OF THE HAIR.

A Course of Treatment That May Give Beneficial Results.

It is not necessarily a sign of incipi- ent baldness or premature age when a woman’s hair, in the spring of the year, begins to fall out with amazing rapid- ity. This is an alarming manifesta- tion, but one is moulting, changing the heavy winter suit fora lighter spring covering, and the quantity and quality of the new growth depend very much on the discreet and careful treatment given one’s head at this critical junc- ture. Deluging with more or less trust- worthy tonics and panicky trips toythe hair specialist are not of so much avail as simple home remedies, and al! aloug in these days, when the sap is rising in the trees, sensible women clip their tresses once in every fifteen days. They merely trim the edges, witha pair of very sharp scissors, and then singe the raw ends over acandle flame. This has exactly the same effect as pruning a hedge. It forces a fuller growth on the scalp.

Another word to the wise. Inspring wash yeurhair at least once every fortnight and don’t wash it before going to bed, for hair must dry rapidly and in the light. Itis not only healthy to shampoo the head frequently, but at this time of the year nothing so stimu- lates the sprouting strands.

Wash your head in a warm bath and use either castile or sulphur soap. If you don’t care to use a soap, the next most cleansing process—and invigorat- ing, too—is to beat the yoke of an egg and pour it over the dry scalp. With your finger tips rub this in, and then plunge your head and tresses into the basin of tepid fluid, dashed with one teaspoonful of cloudy ammonia or bo- rax. Directly the water grows dis- colored, a fresh bath must be drawn and a basin of theclean fluid used, until the last oneis quite cold and the scalp is quite free of sticky egg or soap suds. After wringing out the bulk of haira couple of big Turkish towels, if used hot from hanging before a fire, will all but completely dry the head.

Hair washed in ammonia, borax, or even with soap, though left light and shiny from the effect of the egg, is apt to fluff and fuzz as though every strand had been separately through hot tongs. To allay this a little cocoa oil or any pure grease ought to be rubbed into the scalp and a vigorous brushing put in train. Excessive dryness is indeed a peculiarity of many American women’s hair, the result of our climate and rather second class digestions, and tocorrect this a steady cocoa oil or grease treatment ought to be kept up for two or three months at a time, ap- plying a very little of the emollient once in six or seven days and brushing it out in the length of hair.

It is absolutely only by regular ma- tutinal grooming that dandruff can be kept down and that the gloss and color of hair is retained after the vital juices of early youth are ceasing to flow. It requires two brushes to do this busi- ness well; one meant only for the scalp, and this one must be a rubber affair. It is a new invention, the rubber brush. Back, handle and bristles are all of rubber, pliable indeed but sternly aggressive, for the bristles get right down to first principles and stir the dandruff from its hitherto inaccessible strongholds. Moreover, the rubber brush is delightfully clean, for after use every morning it can be washed under the faucet and laid white and dry back on the dressing table. The second brush ought to be a conven- tional, long handled, stout bristled affair, to use for stroking the length of the hair, where the rubber one will not goand where the daily accumulation of dust, lint, straws and threadsisa matter shocking and astonishing to a dainty woman.

What with thiscareful brushing and washing anyone's spring crop of hair ean be induced to come forth in unusu- al luxuriance and beauty of quality,but for the women who have long ignored the simple cleanly precautions for pre- serving their hair and are in danger of having soon to thatch their crowns with borrowed tresses, a more rigid course of treatment must be followed. Clip skimpy, fading, splitting hair oncea week and every morning fill a basin with clear cold water and ‘treat the head toa plunge bath. Dry out quickly and brush ina little oil, ever so little, not more than a couple of drops per morning. Provided the oil is pure any sort will do, and for as many hours as passible wear the hair hanging loose or very lightly done up with tucking combs,

How Cheese Straws are Made.

To make cheese straws, put half a pound of sifted flour in a mixing bowl. Make a hollow in the center and in it put four ounces of butter, two ounces of cheese, an egg, a pinch of red pep-

er, and one gill of milk, added slow- .. Mix all well together. Roll out the paste till it is about one-eighth of an inch thick; cut it into strips one- quarter of an inch wide and six inches long, and place in a moderate oven until colored a light brown. Serve very hot.—Ladies’ Home Journal,

Prudent.

“Thope, Jennie, that you have given the matter serious consideration,” said the lady to a servant girl who had “given notice” because she was to be married “that day two weeks.” ‘Oh, I have, ma’am,” was the earnest reply. “T’ve been to two fortune-tellers and a clairvoyant, and looked in a sign-book, and dreamed on a lock of his hair, and been to one of those asterrologers, and to a meedjum, and they all teil me to go ahead, ma’am.

WHY CONTEMPLATE SUICIDF.

I: ia like tempting Providence for con- sumptives to ignore the remarkable rem- edy known as Miller’s Emulsion of Nor- wegian Cod Liver Oil. For any person to lie of consumption without trying this remarkable flesh and blood maker. atter knowing of its existence, is suicide pure and simple. All that the consumptive patient needsis new blood with which to battle against the destructive forces of the disease. Miller’s Emulsion provides new blood in abundance. It is a combination of Norwegian oi! and hypophosphites of lime and soda—a triumph of sciente. Miller’s Emulsion is the great nerve strengthener and blood maker, and cures Coughs, Col.ls, Bronchitis, Scrofula and all Lung affections. In big boitles, 50c and $1, at all drug stores.

An Urehin Who Thought Was Cheated.

Ills Bene-

factor

The people in the lunchroom of the Astor House were treated to an amus- ing scene yesterday by a ragged urchin anda whole-hearted citizen from the west, who was looking after him, The diners learned from the westerner’s conversation that he had arrived in Jersey City and the little fellow had carried his gripsack. The man had been drinking, and the little fellow was so badly scared that he hardly knew what todo. He had confided to the westerner that he was hungry, and the man had told him to come in and get something tu eat. He followed his benefactor inside and timidly crawled up on one of the high stools. The man from the west stood up at the bar and drank frequent potations, making com- ments upon the boy’s appetite as he ate his meal,

The little fellow looked at the well- dressed man and then glanced at his own ragged jacket. He jerked his hat off awkwardly and tried to putit in his pocket. Failing in this, he finally compromised, after much fumbling, by tucking it away somewhere within the mysterious confines of his ragged shirt. Then he looked at his grimy hands and shoved them deep into his pockets. He watched with owl-like gravity the white-aproned attendant~ piace the glistening plates and shining knife and fork in front of him. Finally a bowl of steaming soup was placed in front of him, and the sight of it thawed his re- serve. He made an onslaught that made it disappear rapidly. All the time the big man chuckled in high glee, and kept saying:

“Go on, little chan; you eat all yer want. I like to see a youngster like ye eat all he wants.”

The urchin grinned. Thena plate of chops was placed in front of him. He grabbed one by the bone and in the twinkling of an eye had gulped down allthe meat on it. The other went the same way. When he had finished he wiped his hand across his mouth and fished the butt of a cigar from the pocket of his coat. He gravely watched his benefactor take the check and pay it. When he saw the amount he said disgustedly:—

“Say, youse,” pointing to the cash- ier, ‘‘any mug kin get a feed like dat down on West street fer fifteen cents.”

Then he fished a match out of an- other pocket, and taking a proffered dime from the western man, said, non- chalantly:

“T’ank ye, boss. Dat wasa bang-up feed—even if it did cost a plunk.”— New York Tribune.
