To shorten a roller for a window with in- . side blinds, mea’ure from the tip on the spring side and allow half an inch for the roller end ; it will then roll freely to the brackets.

I Colored pictures should not be hung in hallways or on staircases unless there is plenty of light for them. In such places strong photographs, engravings and draw- ings in black and white go best. , A picture should not be hung from one nail; the diagonallines formed by the cord have a very discordant edect. Two nails and two vertical cords, or, what is far more safe, pieces of wire cordage, should be used instead of the single cord. ' Picture cords should be as near the color of the wall upon which they are put as pos- sible, so that they may be but little seen. “‘hen one picture is hung beneath another, the bottom one should be hung from the one above, and not from the top; thus we avoid multiplying the cords, which is always objectionable. A good hue for walls where prints or photographs are to be hung is a rich yellow brown, or a leather color. Lustre to the black of the print or the tone of the photo- graph is thus imparted. The wall paper should have no strongly defined pattern, and should be of one uni- form color, such as red inclining to crimson or tea green. The centre of the picture, as a rule, should not be much above the level of the eye. ’ Useful Recipes. Orange Marmalade Puddingâ€"This is a boiled pudding. Shred 6 oz of beef suet very finely and then mix with 8 oz of bread crumbs, finely grated, 8 07. of orange marmalade, 4 oz of granulated sugar and one candied orange peel, chopped fine. Add three a gs, well beaten, and half a cup of milk. at all tagether into a floured cloth, have the water boiling, put the pudding in and let it boil four hours; then turn it out and serve with wine sauce. Roast Pig's Head-«First boil the head until it is suiiiciently tender to allow the bones to be taken out. After removing these shape the head neatly and skewer it altogether firmly; mix some powdered sage- leaves with pepper and salt and sprinkle the mixture over it. Then hang it on a spit and roast it before a clear fire, basting it well while roasting. When done, which will be in about half an hour if the fire is in ropor condition, serve at once on a hot disli, pouring over it a good gravy. Apple sauce is the best accompaniment for this dish. Ducks, Braisedâ€"Cut the ducks into quarters, lay them in a stew-pan and sprinkle them over with flour, pepper and salt. Fry the pieces in butter until they are a light brown. Then pour the fat out of the pan, and in its place put a half-pint of gravy. Sprinkle a little flour over the locus, and add a glass of port wine, a bunch of sweet herbs, a small minced onion and a little cayenne pepper. Cover the a closely and allow the contents to stew or twenty minutes, which will be suificent to cook them. Then take out the herbs' skim ofl'all the fat, put the ducks in a dish, pour the sauce over them and serve. toast Turkey stuffed with Chestnuts.»- The turkey should be drawn and trussedas in the ordinary way for roasting.

Carefully Investigated by The Can- ‘ ads. Farmers' Sun. a xi. the Statements Contained in the Openf letterâ€"Tho nectar-“s Action in linking E the Facts Public Fully Justified. From The Farmers’ Sun. In an open letter published in The Can- ada Farmsrs' Sun of Sept. 19 over the tontion was called to the remarkable case of Miss Christina Koester, of North Brant, ' who was attended by the doctor in March, 1892, when suffering from inflammation of , the left lung, which subsequently develop- od all the signs of consumption. In June of the same year she wasted to a skeleton, and was suffering from an intense cough with profuse cxpectoration of putrid mat. l tor, accompanied by hectic fever. Her recovery was dospairod of until Dr. Evans, at a stage when other remedies had proved valuelcss, administered Dr. \Villiams' Pink l Pills. Within a week the symptoms had ; abated, and a month after the change of j medicine Miss Koester was able to drive 1 to Elmwcod, a distance of six miles, and i was in good health, except for the weakness l occasioned by so long an illness. ' The publication of the doctor’s state- ment, of which the above is acondensa- I tion, created considerable interest, espo~ cially when it was rumored that Dr. Evans l was likely to be disciplined by the Medical Council for his action in certifying to the l efficacy of an advertised remedy. A re- l presentative ofThe Canada Farmers’Sun was 3 commissioned to carefully investigate the matter and ascertain how far the doctor’s ; = signature of Dr. Evans, of Elmwood, ate; l statements were corroborated by the i patient’s family. An interview with Christina Koester,her father and mother, was held at the home- stead in the Township of North Brant. Miss Koester is a well developed, healthy looking girl of eighteen years of age. She stated that she was now in the enjoyment of perfect health and able to do her part in the labors of tho farm, and had not since her cure had any recurrence of her former trouble. Tado Koester, father of Christina, said , that the statement, as published in Dr. Evans’ ,open letter as to his‘daughter’s recovery, was correct. She was first taken sick about the 15th of March, 1893, of inflammation of the left lung, and after treatment by" Dr. Evans seemed to recover after about two weeks, but again relapsed with the apparently hopeless conditions described in the letter. She was terribly wasted. Every night she coughed up a large bowlful of fetid matter. The family had completely given up all hopes of her recovery, and for two nights sat up With her expecting that she would die. Aftsi beginning the Pink Pills a change for tht better was speedily noticeable. The cough began to discontinue and in one month had tntirely ce'ased, when, as stated in the doctor’s letter she was sufficiently recover- ed to drive to Elmwood. She continued taking the pills until October. Christina had-been quite well since and this fall had been pitching sheaves and helping in the harvest field. Mrs. Koestcr concurred with her hus band’s statements throughout, and was emphatic in testifying to Christina’s. re- duced and weakly condition at the crisis of the disease and the completeness of her recovery. . _ In view of the corroboration by Miss. Koester and her parents of the statements made in Dr. Evans’ letter, all doubts 1n the matter must be set at rest, and the doctor a action in giving the facts of this remarkable case to the public is fully justified. 0-9-9 PERSONAL.
