THE WONDERFUL RECOVERY OF A NIPISSING MAN. â€"â€" Stricken With Partial Paralysis He Was Unable to Use Either Right Arm or Right Leg. Mr. John Craig, :1 well, known farâ€" mer living near Kells, Nipissing dis- trict, Ont., is another of the many who owes his present Whole slices, but cut in two, or even ’good health and ability to go about smaller. . Glasses should be filled three fourths full of fresh cold water just before the serving of the meal. _ Open a boiled "egg either with the knife or spoon. The top should be neatly taken off at one stroke. Cakes are eaten from the fingers, except in the case of sticky layer- cakes, when a fork should always be nupplled. Bread should never be broken into soup, and the last drop of the latter should never be greedaly taken up with the spoon. In eating peaches, pears, etc., reâ€" move the skin, cut the fruit up with the dessertâ€"knife, and pieces to the mouth with the fork. If a silver knife is not provided for the fish course, and the fish is bony, two forks may be used. The knife, however, should always be supplied. For a high tea, savory dishes are introduced, such as ham, tongue. chicken cutlets or croquettes, oyster- patties, etc., also hot cakes, toast, biscuits, preserves, honey, etc. ' It is not necessary to wait until all have been served at the table. One may begin to eat leisurely as soon as served, only observing care not to get through before others. Each mouthful of bread or biscuit should be broken off when needed, and a small piece of butter put on. An entire slice or a, whole biscuit should never be spread at once. If out to dinner, at the end of the meal the napkin should not be fold- ed, but placed unfolded at the left side of the plate. If visiting, a napkin-ring is given, the napkin should be neatly folded and placed in it. When a. plate is sent up the second time, the knife and fork may either be left upon it, side by side, or they may be held in the hand. Usage in this little matter varies, but the former method is the one generally preferred. In passing loafâ€"sugar and olives, it is always more elegant to provide an olive-spoon and sugar-tongs. Some hostesses omit thCSe, but it is almost impossible to help one’s self with the lingers more than one takes, and this is obâ€" jectionable. Mustard and salt should be placed upon the side of the plate. Meat and vegetables can either be taken up by the fork and dipped into _ the condiment, or the point of the knife can be pressed into the salt, mustâ€" ard, catsup, etc., and then applied to the food on the fork. The same sort of a party supper are suitable for a wedding-breakfast. Salmon or’ lobâ€" star with mayonnaise dressing, cold fowlâ€"roasted and boiledâ€"ham, tonâ€" gue, pigeon pie, pressed beef, chicken dishes served at ’salad or patties, lobster cutlets, oys- torâ€"patties, trifles, ices, from, and. cake. The knife should never be used in eating lettuce or salad of any kind. With a. very little practice one ‘may soon acquire the art of manipulating an entire lettuceâ€"leaf with the fork and wafer alone. The salad is quite as pretty, h'oivever, and much more daintin eaten, if several lettuce- leaves are placed together, and then strips. 'A slight twist, and the prettiest of green roses may be made to line the salad- bowl instead of the plain leaves. jellies, creams, tarts, etc., may be selected of course, the wedding WITH CHERRIES .

Mr. Craig gives his experience as follows ,-â€"â€"“But for the blessing of God and the use of Dr. Williams Pink Pills I, do not be- lieve that I would be alive toâ€"day. l was stricken with that terrible affliction, partial paralysis, I had absolutely no power in my right arm or leg. I was not able to sit upâ€"â€"-in fact if I tried to do so I would fall over. I had to be lifted like a child, and my family and friends believed death was very near. The doctor told me that he could do nothing for me, and that I was liable at any moment to have a. second stroke Which would carry me off. I was in this deplorable Condition when I Was advised to use Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills. I sent for three boxes and beâ€" fore they were all used I could move the 'fingers on my hand, which had hitherto been absolutely numb and powerless. You can scarcely imag- ine my joy at this convincing proof that the pills were helping me. From this on I kept getting strongeryand the control of my 'paralyzcd limbs gradually came back until I was again able to walk about and evenâ€" tually to Work. To my nelghbors my cure seems like a miracle, as not one of them ever expected to see me out of bed again. I gladly give'perâ€" mission to publish the story of my cure with the wish that it may bring life and hope and activity to some other sufferer.” The cure of Mr. Craig gives addiâ€" tion-a1 evidence that Dr. William's PinkPills are not an ordinary medi- cine,’ and that their power to cure in all troubles of the blood or nerves places them beyond all other medi- cines.

This is a very delicious fruit to can, is easily prepared and very sel- dom spoils. They should be dead ripe, and this is determined by pull- ing on the spines at the top of the fruit. If they come out readily the fruit is in a fit stage to be eaten. They are usually 90 cents and $1 per dozen at this season of the year, and one dozen fine pineapples will fill fifteen pint cans and have sufficient syrup. Begin at the large end and pare them all over, not stopping to pick out the eyes until all are pared. 'A sharp pointed knife is best for going over them the second time. When all are ready commence slicing from the outside toward the center. You will find a sort of pith or woody stem, but the pulp will cleave away from this, for it has no value whatever. Put the fruit in a preserving kettle with sufficient water to just cover nicely. Cover closely and let boil gently for about half an hour, or un- til it is easily pierced with a fork. Usually one teacupful of sugar to a pint can is enough, but depends largely upon what degree of sweetâ€" ness the family likes. Let this simâ€" mer for another half hour, when the fruit will be clear, something like citron preserves. Be sure that the rubbers are new, the tops in good condition, and the cans perfectly clean and sweet, and there will be no trouble with the keeping. Pineapples are quite an inexpen- sive fruit for everyday use on the table. Should be prepared in the forenoon if desired for supper, cutt- ing it in fanâ€"shaped pieces and sprinâ€" kling with powdered or fruit sugar, then cover closely and set in the iceâ€" box. It will make its own juice, and when one is fond of it it is delicious. The only trouble is they are so plentiful and cheap just when straw- berries are in "full blast,” and one is undecided which to invest in, so it must ever remain a matter of taste. Pineapple Shortcake is much liked by many, and in the making the same method obtains. They aren’t a Very bad fruit to eat out of hand, without a grain of sweet, and I often think that we spoil our taste by the too lavish use of sugar, don’t you? WASHING LACES. To Wash white or cream lace make a suds of White soap and tepid wa- ter, adding a solution of borax in the proportion of a teaspoonful of the powder to a cup of water. It will be necessary to dissolve the bor- ax in boiling water. Cool the liquid before using it. piece of white flannel. . To two quarts of suds put the one cupful of bovrax water. Put the lace in it and leave over night, In the morning remove the flannel with the lace from the water and rinse in sev- eral waters without squeezing it. Tack it on a board to dry and put it out in the sun. To take the dead white color off lace, coffee or saffron may be used if a. yellow tint is de- sired. The best starch for lace is made by dissolving one-fourth ounce of gum arabic in a cup of water. Strain the liquid through a cloth. You can wash the newer laces, if they are much soiled by wearing in the necks of dresses, by making a warm pearline Suds and washing lightly in your hands. Rinse in warm, clear water and while wet place upon your window pane-or mirror, and leave there until quite dry, then peel off, and it will look like it had just been bought. +._......_.. LEARNING FROM ANALOG Y. “I tell you," contended Smithson, in the smoking-room of‘his club, "‘the man who says we ought to live to be a hundred years old is right. It takes a horse four years to complete its growth, and it.lives to be twenty. It takes a- man twenty years to complete his growth, and by the same ratio he ought to live to be .a. hundred. There re lots of things we can learn from analogy."- ‘ “I don’t know but that you are right," responded the unemotional friend. "For instance, there is the flea. It'Ijumps. thirteen- hundred times its own- length“ v There, isano reason, therefore, why a man six ‘,feet- high .ch'ould .not-ube: able. to. jump at. one leap.

Edmanson, Bates 62: 00., proprietors of Dr. Chase’s family medicines, desire to warn the readers of this paper against having any- thing to do with these fakirs, as they positively refuse to accept any testimonials except directly from per- sons who have actually used their medicines. ‘ This warning is made necessary on account of recent disclosures in To- ronto and other cities where these parties are at work. Though the police authorities made an effort to put a stop to this fraud some days ago, it is still going on, and thoughtless persons are being induc- ed, by the offer of a dozen free photographs, to sign fraudulent statements about medicines almost, if not entirely unknown to them. Every testimonial and every photo- graph used in reference to Dr. Chase’s remedies is backed by a $500.00 guarantee that it is genuine. The original, signed letters of per- sons recommending Dr. Chase’s medi- cines are kept on file at the offices of Edmanson, Bates & C0,, and will be cheerfully shown to anyone who doubts the truthfulness and accuracy of any published testimonial. You are also invited to call on the per- Son whose name appears in the testi- monial whenever possible. As a matter of fact, so many peo- ple are ready and willing to certify to the merits of Dr. Chase’s medi- cines that it is quite unnecessary to employ persons to solicit testimonâ€" ials. Day by day. letters are pouring in direct from persons who have been freed from sickness, disease and suf- fering, and who, as a. result, write with a heart full of gratitude for the benefits obtained from these great medicines. __...._.¢._.___.. WATCHES THE RAILS . ,___.. Machine Which Provides for Safeâ€" ty of Travellers. American railroad development has reached the point where a marl can sit comfortably in a private car asd see recorded on paper before him every imperfection of 'the rails over which he is riding, says World's Work. Twenty years ago, a track Walker with a hammer trumped the crossâ€"ties to find out this same thing. The track walker’s Work and much more is now done by the dynograph, a mechanism which not only records the deviations the rails make from a straight and level line, but auto- matically computes these deviations in feet and inches. It is the inven- tion of Dr. P. H. Dudley. The inâ€" vention is attached to his private car, which has been his home for fifteeiryears. The dynograph tests rails. It is a machine 4-2 inches high and looks like a hand printing press. It makes records on the roll of paper attached to the machine, made through power gained from the rolling of the wheels of the car over the track. The paper is unrolled by a shaft attached to the axle of the car. The paper is thus moved slow- ly as the car travels. Suspended over the paper are a number of glass tubes, each containing red ink. They are really glass needles that makes a continuous mark on the paper. There is one needle for each track, one for the-gauge of the rails, anâ€" other to measure the distance the car is travelling. These needles are all connected, first, by shaft attachâ€" ed to the side, and then by delicate mechanism. attached to the shaft. If the car is travelling over a perfect level track, these glass needles make a straight line. If there is an unduâ€" lation in the track of a fraction of an inch, the sensitive mechanism wavers, and the line becomes broken. Since no track is perfectly level, the record for the best roadâ€"bed in Am- erica is wavering. When the undulation or break in the level of the track is oneâ€"eighth of an inch or more, the mechanism opens a hose attached to a can of blue paint on the tracks, the paint is splurled on the rail and the de- fect is thus plainly marked for the section pangs. Every time the. paint is thrown on the track a mark is made by the glass needle, giving a record by which to check the work of theSe track repairers. At the end of a test trip a perman- ent record of the roll is made and copies printed for the various mechâ€" anical departments of the road. By this record the road is apprised of the actual condition of its road- bed. _â€"â€"_._..§_./...._. BABY LAUGHS.

An interview published in the Lonâ€" don Daily News gives the opinion of‘ a young Finnish lady, on exile, on. 3 the assassination of Gen. Bobrikofi, ‘ 1, late Governor of the province. ' "General Bobrikoff,” she said, "is- the destroyer of Finland, deliberate- ly commissioned to stamp out every vestige of nationalityâ€"the national institutions, and even the education. of the people, which made Finland the one civilized part of the Russian Empire. No man has ever been hat- ed in Finland like this cruel and bar- i barons man. Even the children ’ everywhere hate his name. "All Finâ€" i land will be glad that he is gone. MUCH HATED MAN. “Even at St. Petersburg he was hated by almost every one in auth- ity. When it was determined to break down the spirit and destroy the institutions of the Finnish people my uncle was Minister of State for Finland. The post of Governor-Gen- era] was offered to officer after oiliâ€" cer, but they all, knowing what was expected of them, recoiled from the ,gmm..~.,.,,. ,, .. bras-‘1'. yawâ€"L. a _ .. . _ .,.___. . A...“ ...___qw;.~am.n. ; .n; . as task. « 'At last Bobrikofi was sug~ gestedâ€"a parvenu, son of a. priest f given to intoxication, but clever, aggressive and forceful, and, as I said, hated by all his colleagues. He was the only one who would take the place. He had had some ex- perience 'of the work of tyranny in the East Sea provinces, and he was appointed precisely on account of the worst things known about him. TAMING 'A PEOPLE. "How has he set to work to des- troy Finland, to break down the spirit of the only educated and civil- ized population in Russia? The edâ€" ucation of the people was the great thing aimed at. The Polytechnicum in Helsingforsâ€"the only one in Fin- landâ€"was suppressed, so that techni- cal education is absolutely stopped in the country. 'All meetings of the students in their clubs and debating societiesâ€"the Nylandsker 'Afdelningcm -â€"wero stoppedfand it became treasâ€"g onable to take the slightest interestf in the education of the people. Many of my relatives have been driven out of the country for nothing. Any excuse is taken to drive out the edâ€" ucated or those who take an interest in politics or resent the oppression of the people. They are trying to supplant the Finnish schools by schools teaching only Russian; they! are planting Russian bishops and Russian churches, and trying to force the people to abandon their Protes~ tant religion. 'Anyone in authority who showed the slightest sign of ob- jection was simply. sent away and replaced. Numbers have been exiled, ’ most of them going to Stockholm, but even there they are dogged at every step by Russian spies, Others have simply disappeared. They went to bed at night; in the morning they were not there. Their friends have no idea where they arcâ€"perhaps in prison perhaps in Siberia. News- l i papers are suppressed; all news of what is going on has to be circulat- ed secretly." POLICY OF SUPPRES SION. Mr. C. Harold Perrott, who knOWS Finland well and has taken an ac-- tive interest in Finnish politics, gave a brief and striking summary of the steps by which General Bobrikoff has attempted to destroy all semâ€" blance of liberty in Finland since his appointment six years ago. “Bobrikoff’s predecessors in the Governor-Generalship,” saier. Per-, rott, “had always been men of cul- tured stamp and high social position But when the new regime was startâ€" ed iu 1898 the post was offered to several leading Russian statesmen and declined. General Bobrikofi‘, a rough soldier, with no pretensions to family or education, then took the office. I-Iis sole ambition has been to stamp out the liberties of the people and substitute an autocracy, to do away with the self-governing institutions of the Grand Duchy. All the leading newspapers have been Suppressed, most of the prominent citizens exiled, and a tremendous number of resignations of Finnish officers in the Russian army have occurred. POLICE DOMTNATION. "The whole country has been flood- ed with spies, the passport system has been instituted, the people are subjected to constant police raids and 'domiciliary visits,’ and practi- cally the whole Finnish Senate has been summarily dismissed from their posts and creatures of the Govern- ment substituted. An influential manifesto was issued protesting the violation of Finland’s constituâ€" tional rights, and among those who signed it were some of the leading jurists of Europe. The late Profesâ€" sor Mommsen, the late Mr. Herbert Spencer, Professor Westlake, K.C., and Senator Frarieux, then Minister of Justice in France, signed the proâ€" test. At first General .llobrikoff’s subordinate in Finland was M. von Plehve, who now acts as Secretary of State for Finland jin ,addition to his other duties."
