'l‘o Cure Cold Feel. People who write or sew all day. or rather those who take but little exercise, may warm their cold feet without going to the fire. All that is necessary is to stand erect and very gradually to lift one‘s self up upon the tips of the toes, so as to put all the tendons of the foot at full strain. This is not to hop or jump up and down. but simply to riseâ€"the slower the betterâ€" upon tiptoe. and to remain standing on the points of the toes as long as possible, then gradually coming to the natural position. Repeat this several times, and, by the amount of work the tips of the toes are made to do.in sustaining the body's weight, a sufficient and lively circulation is set up. Even the half-irozen car~driver can carry this plan out. It is one rule of the “ Swedish movement” system; and. as motion warmth is much better than fire- warming. persons who sufier with cold feet at night can try this plan just before retiring to rest.

Once a month all Brussels carpets in daily use should be treated to cornmeal and salt; mix it small handful of salt to every quart of cornmeal ; dumpenit very slightly. sprinkle over th‘ carpets and sweep thoroughly. It will remove dust and coal smut, and brighten the colors wonder- fully. When the spring and fall cleaning is done. have the carpets well swept, then sprinkle with cornmeal and salt and rub one width at a time with clean cloths which should be changed when sailed. The irgrain and three-ply carpets should be well shaken, the spots washed in a pail of clean warm soap and water. then rinsed and dried. When they are tacked down, wipe them all over with a flannel cloth rung from hot water. I think Brus- sels carpets are almost. it not quite, as cheap in the end as ingrain or three-ply. for they last much longer. look better, and do not need to be taken up more than once in two or three years. while the ingrain and three-plys ought to be shaken as often as every three or six months, if used con- stantly.The dust and dirt sweep ofi Brussels, and it siits into the other carpets. Velvet carpets last a long time,but are very hard to sweep. After the monthly cleaning, when the dust is well settled, wipe the furniture over with a flannel cloth dipped in kero- sene. This is the best method I know of for the purpose. It dries quickly, does not injure the furniture in the least, and the odor soon passes away. Silver and plated- ware can be cleaned beautifully and expedi- tiously by rubbing them with a piece of flannel dipped first in kerosene then in whiting. It should then be polished with a ieoe of chamois skin. (Kerosene should be eptaway from the fire). If each remembered the other was a hujpau being, not an angel.

If is astonishing how many people are caught in The Chief Inspector says: “None of these firms are known to the State Inspec- tion Department as warehousemen, grain receivers or shippers, nor in any way eon- neoted with the sotnslgrsin trade." They pretend to be commission merchants. but this is untrue. except as to one member of one firm. who has done a little trading. All of them are believed to be con- neeted together, and run by two or three mew. Flemming came from Detroit. where he was in partnership with one McKinney. who is now serving storm in State's Prison for fencing stolen goods. and Flemming himself was arrested there for alleged frend._ ‘ Some time ago one of the Post-office In» speotors was detailed to locate these people and ascertain who they were, and his in- vestigations resulted in the order referred to above. While the game is blocked so far as the mails are concerned, the express companies are still open to the firms, their receipts through them being 810,000 or $16,000 a month. and the others probably 840,000. Secretary Randolph, of the Board of Trade, devoues a good deal of his time to answering letters of inquiry about them. his uniform reply being that they are not members of the Board and have no standing in the trade. Reputable commission merchants and the newspapers are also in receipt of similar letters, as are the Post-office officials. The Postmaster ol the I}. 8. Shul- Down on Swindllux Firmsâ€"[low Many Cana- dians hour Their Money. The U. S. Postmaster-General issued an order ‘cently forbidding the delivery of registered letters or the payment of money orders to Flemming Merriam, R. E. Kendalld’r 00., Charles J. Henri Jr 00., Cudworth 00., and Bennett, Kcltzman Cc.,cf Chicago. These “ firms " are all in the same business, and have duped quite a number of Hamiltonians from time to time who have responded to their advertise- ments. They purport to operate on the Board of Trade by a fund or club system which puts 3100 into their own pockets to every 31 that reaches their customers. Their circulars, which have been sent to every part of the country. are very alluring, all the details of the plans of operation being given, and statements made, of the monthly profits on a $10 share, which run from 5 to 85 per cent., according to the circulars. In order to lead small investors on, large returns are made, but if a person puts in 3100 or 6500 the chances are that he will be informed that the mar- ket went against him. Notwithstanding the exposure of the same. which the members of the Board of Trade say is an untrustworthy one, these firms have been doing an enormous business.

Pa, telegram says: In to-night's Herald, Dr. Julius Bevin, apractitioner or this city tor more than halt a century and at one time Erie's leading physician.makes allegations of shocking cruelty among the insane inmates oi the State Asylum at Dixmont. Dr. Sevin returned to Eric a few days ago alter sojourning eight years in the as lum as an insane atient. His dismiss on the grounds 0 sanity was brought about by powerful local influences exerted in his power, and he now states that but for gross deception and the black- est treachery practised he ought to have been restored tohis home and friends nearly seven years ago. About eight years ago Dr. Sevin’s mind gave way under a sad bereavement and he was committed to Dix- mont {or treatment. He states that in less than eighteen months he regained his mental faculties and applied for discharge but that he was told to be satisfied where he was. All his letters addressed to his familylin Erie never went beyond the asylum, and he says he was subjected to the most bitter indigni- ties. All his pathetic appeals for restora- tion were unheeded. and month after month and year after year rolled on without a chance of escape until some months ago the heart of a young at- tendant named George Haefler was; touched by Dr. Sevin’s pitiful condition, ‘and he consented to mail the doctor’slet- ters, detailing the horrors of his captivity. The letters reached his friends here who had begun to think his infirmity incurable, and the President, Judge W. A. Galbraith, interested himself in the matter. The re- sult was that within a short time the doors of Dixmont Were thrown open to Dr. Sewn. The old gentleman says one of his companions. a young German named Thumb, of Pittsburg, who had also recovered but was retained, was brutally kicked by a keeper. He fell insensible, and in falling inflicted a terrible gash in the head. In afew days he died, and the Superintendent of the hospital,Dr. Reed, received a report that Thumb had died from a fit of epilepsy. Dr. Bevin also declares that Wm. Constantine Neunsteil, an accomplished scholar and as sane as any living man, is the prisoner of his wife’s paramour, who regularly pays for the husband's support in the asylum. He was sent to Dixmont a few years ago on a petition of the wile. “ Over sixty patients," says Dr. Sevin, “ who are sane are confined in Dixmont today with no hope of release. Ohl I could mention instances of men who are imprisoned there the victims of outrageous plots. What I have said is not half what I know." Dr. Reed is the Superin- tendent of the State Asylum, and Sevin says his infirmities prevent him from exer- cising proper supervision, and that he has to depend upon young doctors.
