Our salesmen and saleswomen are here simply to cut off the lengths you require, and wrap them up for you.

Beyond the Cradle.

The Rey. Anna Shaw says it is not true ‘that ‘‘the hand that rocks the cradle rules the world.”’” ‘Lhe trouble is that the child does not stay long enough in the cradle. It is soon out in the front yard, if there is one, and then the mother’s influence is still pretty weli maintained, but when it gets out on the sidewalk and into the street the child then is in the domain of man, where women are not supposed to be wise enough te regulate affairs. The dan- gers and temptations that then asssail the young are those that man, not woman, is responsible for, _

Abbey’s Effsrvescent Salt isa prepara- tion which any druggiet can recommend. Its ingredients are pure and bonest. Here is what the Maritime Medicine Newe says of it: “One of the most important claims

of Abbey’s Effervescent Salt is ite sahso lutely purity. lis tmgredients have been repestedly analyzed by expert chemists and have been pronounced fully up to the requirements of the test fer pure druge, as laid down in the last edition of the British Pharmaconmea. The Isst effervescence of Albbey’se F@erveecent Sait makes a most palatable drink. Ite refrigerant qualities make it invaluable in Fevers and many Inflammatory Affections.”

Asa general reguiator of health there is nothing ,to equal Abbey’s Effervescent Salt. {te daily ure pas broaght heath to thousands, and willdo the same for vou. Sold by ali druggist at 6@ cents a large bottle! rial size 25 cente.

TEAS AND TEAS.

Things Once Used or Now Used as Substi- tutes For the Chinese Herb.

Of course every one knows that we drink a good deal that isn’t tea when we drink acup of tea. We drink—or are supposed to drink—some tea, some lead and some straw. But there are sev- eral ‘‘teas’’ that the drinkers know are not made of tea leaves and yet are not adulterated.

In Peru they drink mate, a tea made from the Ilex paraguensis, a species of holly. Thisis the only mate tea, but there is a Brazilian tea, gorgonhba, call- ed mate there; another tea used in Aus- tria, called Brazilian tea, and several other so called mate teas are made from different varieties of the ilex. In Lab- rador they make a tea from two species of ledum. Oswego tea was made from the scarlet mouarda, and mountain tea from the dwarf evergreen, Gaultheria procumbens. Then clover tea and tansy tea and catnip tea and mint tea are used, thoagh not as beverages.

In Sumatra they use coffee leaves to make tea out of, and the beverage is said to ‘be very refreshing. In Mauritius the leaves of an orchid, Angroecum fragrans, are used. The Tonquinese have teas of their own, made of leaves, berries, barks and woods. The Abys- 6inians make tea ont of the leaves of | the Catha edulis. Whenasentinel can’t leave his post to get a cup of tea, he can chew a leaf or twoof this plant, and he won’t feel like going to sleep all night. In Tasmania there are said te be more than 200 substitutes for tea; in England they used to make a tea of sage, betony or rosemary and of rasp- berry leares; in France they use black currant leaves apd borage to make tea, and acentury or so ago they gathered

in English gardens and fields ash, elder and sloe leaves, and the leaves of white- thorn and blackthorn, out of which to make tea. So it is evident that there are teas and teas.—New York #un.

Animals’ Fright Is Short,

A questianm that has often been asked is, How long does fright last in a wild creature? The close observer will be surprised atits brief duration. They are not subject to ‘‘nerves’’ like human beings. A partridge after running (or rather flying) the gantlet of half a dozen gunus—if we may be allowed a mixed raetaphor—drops on the other side of a hedge and begins calmly to peck as if nothing had happened. You would think a rabbit after hearing a charge of shot whistling about its baunches and just managing to escape from a yelp- ing spaniel would keep indoors for a week, but out it pops quite merrily as soon as the coast isclear. A fox pur- sued by hounds bas been known to halt and kill a fowl in its flight, thongh we may assume that his enemies were not close to Reynard at the time. We have been led into thinking about the matter by noting what took place at a cover after being shot over.—Pall Mall Ga- rette

Drying Clothes,

The drying of clothes in frosty weather is sometimes, in the case of delicate fabrics, attended with tearing because of the quick stiffening in the very cold air. A simple precaution which will prevent any such trouble is to dissolve three or four hamifuls of coarse salt in the last rinsing water. thus making it, in fact, a weak brine. Articles so rinsed will not suffer from or stiffen with the cold.

The checks become pale from fear be- cause the mental emotion diminishes the action of the heart and lungs and so impedes the circulation.
