Interesting Reminiseences of the Femovs Humorist, Sydney Smith, Sydney Smith was a political reform- #] ward one of the foremost men of let- sof his time, but he is remembered jiefly as a humorist who could enliven jisner table with his wit. Like other ie men who have a talent for making ple laugh, he was jealous of his sutation for good sense. When he reprinted his essays from » Edinburgh Review, his object; giv- in his own words, was ‘‘to show, if THlonld, that I had not passed my life “ieerly in making jokes, but that I had de use of whatever little powers of asantry I might be endowed with to scountenance bad and to encourage beral and wise principles.”’ In this bject he failed. His public services and dom have been forgotten. His jokes e remembered. His account of Dame Partington, who ed upon the beach at Sidmouth and ho was seen during a violent storm mndling her mop, squeozing out the water and vigorously pushing away ee Atlantic ocean, is a household story kich every one knows. The circum- Po #eces in which it was told and the | Sere by it have passed out of : eg It was at the end of a long agitation | political reform in England when > house of lords had thrown out the ’ t measure of Lord John Russell, ich had been carried throngh the mons. Sydney Smith, the political son who had been advocating Lib- ] principles and reform measures for y years, told this story ata politi- meeting: ian Taunton, at which hes were made protesting against maction of the lords. It caught the lic fancy, and within a week every- in England was laughing over it. Partington’s mop battle with the pest tossed Atlantic portrayed the zis’ futile struggle with English pub- Ropinion. That fanny story was prob- more effective than the most elo- emt argument in disarming mobs, enting a breach of the peace and rerting hostility to the lords into inatured contempt. ‘‘The Atlantic b beat Mrs. Partington.’’ During the 60 years which preceded Victorian reign Sydney Smith “was most the only prominent English ryman who wes interested in re- h movements, and in his writings *the Edinburgh Review he succeeded “F7 his wit in presenting the dullest ar- _ *Fent with freshness and force Wit i him was the vehicle which carried i sense and wisdom.

A WOMAN'S TRIUMPH. ee She Managed Her Work So Well That it Equalled the Efforts of Professionals, While it is well known that any wom- an of intelligence can do as good work with the Diamond Dyes,and ai less than half the cost charged by professional dyers in the city steam dye houses, yet there may be some people who doubt the statement. The following extracts from a letter written by Mrs. J. Gard- ner, of Owen Sound, Ontario., prove that Diamond Dyes are unequaled: «There Was a man in our town going from house to house taking orders for a Toronto dye house for the dyeing of all kinds of garments aud clothes. I had just taken off the line some goods that Ihad dyed with diamond Dyes, and showed him that I could doas good work as any dye house. He honestly admit- ted that | was right about my work with Diamond Dyes. r Having a large family I use Dia- mond Dyes to economise. I have always the best of success with your dyes, and must say that I am more than delighted with your colors for dyeing cotton.” ———— At Springhtll Junction on Wednesday while a were moving barrels of oil on a trolley, a young lad named Mc- Lean fell under the wheels aud had hie back so badly injured that his life is de- spaired of.

About it superstitions grew, religion aud ceremonious rites, aod strange crimes were committed for its possession in the days when it wae believed that it was of such stuff that the suo itself was made and the halls of Valhalla paved. Rock paintings and carvings in Egyptian tombs earlier than the days of Joseph in- dicate the operation of washing auriferous sand, and a subsequent melting in furnaces by the aid of blow pipes. ' Less than twenty years ago the old mines ot Nubia, so graphically described by Diodorus, were rediscovered on the shores of the Red Sea, together with a line of ancient wells across the desert; the underground workings where ore veins had been followed with the pick the rude cuppelling furnages for assaying, picks oil lamps, stone mills, mortars and pestles, inclined washing tables of stone, crucibiles; and _ retorting fur- paces of burned tile, by which the entire process could be _ traced. Here slaves and hapless prisomers of war exchanged their life blood for glittering dust to fill the treasuries of their captors. In India and Asia Minor the powdered ore was washed down over smooth, slop- ing rocks and gold caught in the fleeces of sheepskins sank in the stream, It was literally a golden fleece that Jason brought back from the Caucasus. Further north, and following the eastern foothil)s of Mount Ararat to the southern slopes of tie Ural mountains in Russian Siberia, where laet year millions were taken out of the old mines, the ancient Scythians broke up rock and gravel with copper instruments, scraped out the glitter dust and nuggets with the fangs of and carried their gains away in All through thie region miners of teday know that one ot the chief dangers to be avoided are the Scythiau pits, sixty feet deep in the gravel, and shaped like a well. The remains of thou- sands of smal! furnaces of burned clay testify to the Jong period over which the workings of the mines extended.— Modern Machipery. $$$" Evening - Classes PE. | COMMERCIAL COLLEGE, COMMENCE ON Monday. 18th Oct. inst At 7.30.

What It Is That Causes It and How Tt Shouid Be Remedied. Pliny regarded nosebleed as one of the distinctive characteristics of the human race, for he said that‘‘man is the only creature from whom blood flows at the nostrils,’’ and, properly understood, he was right. Of course bleod will Dow from any pert of any animal when the arteric or veins of that part are opened, but it isa fact that nosebleed, occurring withou' any, apparent cause, is seldom, if ever, se.n *% animals. The reason for this human pe- culiarity is that the membrane lining the fostrils in man is especially full of blood vessels, the walls’ of which are weak and easily ruptured by slight causes, o It is usually very easy to recognize nose- ' bleed, but sometimes the blood flows back- ward into the throat and then is coughed up or vomited and may be thought ta come from a hemorrhage of the lungs of stomach, and so cause much needless alarm. ‘ As a rule, nosebleed is a thing of slight importance and stops of itself after a little while, but the blood may escape in such quantity or the bleeding may continue so long that the patient is greatly weakened. When occurring in children, it has ordi- narily go significance, though this is not alway? io be taken for granted, butin old- er persons it may bea symptom of some otner illness, such as the beginning of ty- ph id fever or a trouble of the liver or heart. Nosebleed is one of the common mani- festations of that curious condition in which there is a tendency to severe hemor- rhage after any slight injury or even with- out any cause that can be discovered. Children with this predisposition, often called ‘‘bleeders,’’ suffer from freqnent and uncontrollable attacks of nosebleed and sometimes die in one of them in spite of all efforts to control the hemorrhage. Ordinarily there is little to be dono, for the bleeding usually stops of itself. The child should be made to sit quietly ina chair with the head only slightly inclined forward, just enough to let the drops fall clear of the lips into a basin. All elothing should be loosened about the neck. Ice may be applied to the back of the neck, or ice water may be dashed into the face or made to trickle down the back. It is useful also to insert a little piece of ice into the bleeding nostril—sometimes the effect is better if the ice is put into the other nostril—and retain it there fora mo- ment or two, ora still better plan is to 'r snuff up a mixture of aloobol and water as hot as it can be borne. The introdnction a of cobwebs into the bleeding nostril often induces coagulation, or the same purpose may be served by # little wad of loose worsted which bas been picked apart. | : If simple measures fail, the physician should be summoned before exbaustion i ensues. — Youth’s Companion. ij WH: be Ny Pe taps uy ; id Sae% Lat a “J ca ia ae ie a dil ain is iii, ae Rina is ei i, ee ee a ae ae BUSINESS TACT. A Sermon on How to Get and Hold Customers, 4 Ina paper entitled ‘How to Get and Hold Customers,” read by 8S. Bricker of Listowell, Ont., at the annual meeting of the Ontario Hardware association, he said: ‘The business man who looks at ce! iver- ing his goods and getting his monvy as the only thing which is related to each transaction has a very iinportant lesson to learn. No doubt there are some who differ with me in this particular and say: lusi- ness is business, and friendship forms no part of it. Admitting that it is ail busi- nets and tlat the oustomer gets value equal to his money, his future patronnee is t nevertheless to be considered and so! ir ited apart from his money. Between thv two we may not be able to make the d)ssinc- tion very quickly, but there jis a dis inc- tion nevertheless, and he who has corcful- ly studied the philosophy of trade can readily define it, ‘“‘A customer’s money is only a matter of the moment and has reference to u« par- ticular transaction. His patronage, bis good will, his influence, however, sre of paramount importance, for which we should be willing to forego very muoh that he may be retained with the house A customer who buys but one bill is nut profitable except to the extent of his pnr- chase. When we get a chance to se!! toa party one bill, we are in duty bound t our business to treet him so wel! that when he leaves us he will say, ‘When I re- quire anything more in this line, I will buy it frem this man.’ Since we ere so inevitably dependent upon each other and necessarily helpers of each other, it would be very unwise and almost certain ruin for a merchant to establish the rule ih st he will do just as he pleases and not s licit the good will ar favor of any one. Ability to satisfy a customer with your goods will induce him to buy. Politeness and honest treatment will induce him to buy aguin.” —Hard ware. The Bigger Fool. Men who have worn the judicial ermine generally have certain privileges in court that the struggling young lawyer would make any sacrifice to obtain, A newly admitted member of the bar made a sug- gestive remark to ex-Judge Curtis of New York about this, ond the old genticman became very angry. When he gets mad, he lets himself loose. He did se on this occasion, but finally wound up with: “I am a fool! I am the biggest fool on earth!" The youngster attempted te soothe him with the remark: ‘‘Judge, all men are fools at times. I have been a fool myself.’ The enraged old lawyer glared at him. ‘‘ You a fool?’’ he sneered, ‘ Yea, and a bigger fool than you, judge,””’ This caused the judge to tear the little hair left upon his venerable head. ‘‘I deny it, sir!’ he shouted. ‘‘It isa lie! You could never oe a bigger fool than IL You have not the capacity, sir; mot the capacity!’’—San Francisco Argonaut “ater gin, aoonlange 0 Reaingia ABITe, 50 iki aS Mie ethan weg 0c oe Se a a Rg PS, RM EE. oe Sate all
