J The Sitting-Room Window. Br ASS”: 1.. JACK. It is autumn and we are busy garnering the fruits and other products of the Earth. The sitting-room window is desert. ad, but for a few ferns, and every one is doing 3 little toward the harvesting. There are flower seeds to pick and label, sweet herbs to dry and put ' in‘ bottles, and the pumpkins and squashes to put on a cool dry shelf. Parsley dried in the oven and packed away in paper bags is very useful through the winter, and speaking of bags, those who have only a few grapes can keep them from birds and have them ripen better if put into paper bags as soon as they are formed. I find, too, it is a protection against early frost. ' This Province has a great deal to contend with in the matter of climate. Late frost- and cold in spring, early frost in autumn make a short season and make fruit growing quite precariouh. The children revel in grapes and apples and they seem'to be able to cut them without any decrease of appe- tite. , _ The bees have finished storing honey for this season, and we realize that it has been a l very poor one comparatively. How rich this lucious sweetness is and so scarce this year that it is being rrniriufactirred and simply glucou ind syrup. The NCU'IICL’ of adulteration has made rapid progress and one is hardly sure, oti‘a farm, that products are genuine. - l-like‘tbesc long autmmr evenings, they 7 are full of pleasant possibilities, and if we do not always carry out our intentions in the way of improvement and study, who does? .Let- us enjoy the seasons as they come. The violets have left us, the roses are gone, sovwr: will tryit'o' be contented with the chrysanthenurm and our home cheer. ’W’e will pile on the back log, ' and getbut . ,1 lie platesof fruit, for the longwiutcr is at hand when the Sittinggroom must be the cosh-st and cheerfulest room of the house, full of pleasant associationsand cordial good will. , "('omc. stir the fire, and. close the shutters first, .

The Care of Shoes. For men and children, especially, shoes (or boots, if they are worn)slrouldbe well oil- cd from time to time, depending upon the employment of the wearer, the quality of the leather; and the weather. Not only isa hard, dry leather painful to the feet, but it- is of short life, cracking and br taking away oftentimes when with proper care it would last much longer. t'not frequently happens that makers or dealers are blamed because their goods do not wear better, when in fact the principal fault is with the wearer, or in not. using reasonable ‘are. . Speaking generally, arrv shoes which have. been wet- should be well dried, thoroughly cleaned, and then fiiitlrfirllyoilerl before being worn again. The kind of oil to apply varies some- what with tlre nature of the shoes. For ladies’ line shoes, vascliue is recommended ; glycerinc is sometimes used with good effect: or castor oil can be employed, and will be found excellent. .\\'hatcver ‘is ap- plied, thc leather Should be warm- edâ€"not heated so as to involve dun: ger of liurniuumaud the application should be. faithfully rrrhbed in, so that the entire body ofvthc leather may bercaclr= cd and softened. For coarser shoes, such as are often worn in farming and manufactur- ing cmployuicnts, airy oily substance pos- sessing “a body” will give satisfactory re- sults, provided it be absolutely free from salt. Lard should not be used, but entirely fresh butter answers admirably. So does a mixture of about equal parts of pure ncats foot oil and beef fallow ; and mutt'on t-allow is an old-time favorite. llut one thing is quite certainwno boot or shoe which feels harsh and still from exposure. to wet weather or dampness of airy sort should be worn in that condition. The leather will be almost surc to crack and spoil the shoe. And there is another fact which should be born in mind, and that is that a coat of blackiug, while it 1 may make the external appearance of the shoe all right, docs not in any degree atone, so tar as wear andconrfort are concerned, for O . .

In the case of one of these patients who had reached an advanced stage of the disease Mr. Mossi succeeded by compression of. the neck in putting a stop to most distress- ing crises of dyspnu-a as well as to the feel- ing of thoracic and cervical constriction. This nreans was successful on several oc- casions and in a very manifest way, but the time during .which the effect lasted varied : This is u. new phenomenon, as far as my knowledge goes at any rate, in the visceral complications of tubes. It Seems that by this process the same effect is produced as that which is obtained by the compression 3 of special zones in hysteria or of the painful spots in some forms of neuralgia. The re- sult was immediate and cllcctive, but, as might. have been expected, it did notlast long. Are we to believe that it was really the compression of the pneumogastric nerve that produced the effect mentioned 1' In con- sideration of the complicated anatomy of the region on which the pressure was exert- ed it would not be possible to assert that it- was the direct action on these nerves that i ,brought about the desired result ; therefore without tryin ' to explain the physiolo ’ical mechanism of5 this phenomenon, I wi 1 be satisfied with making public the results that can be. obtained by compression of the lair-r» al regions of the neck in crises.- depending Coachman Williams‘s Luck.
