Encourage Children to Save. Thrift is not onn of the natural virtuosi of childhood. Ail tho necessaiics of life are provided for a child, and lie i-tcclvcs them ad a matter of course, neither questioning their source nor speculating whether they will continue or not. Many children can liavo almost anything they want for the mere askin;;, so there is no incentive to save. AVliei) the child has the money in his hand it is thq mother's part to guide him in its dispi It is here that the foundation is laid for hahits of a lifetime. Teach him first to think of others, and to put aside somolhini. if only a penny, for those who are poor than himself. When he has aecnmulati enough to he of use let him buy it U (lowers or a little fruit for a sick child or t old person, and give it himself, to she him practically the value of sympathy. Try to instil into his mind the fact thaji, money is a trust, not to ho expended solely for self; that a partis due to those whoneed, and that he must share it with them It he is a faithful steward. Next let him laf by a portion for the future. Some end not too distant should he chosen at first—a thino that he wishes very much to possess and i buy if he saves enough to do so; a li„», a journey that he may take if he has tha "'onej' for the expenses.; something, whater it may be, that he can attain in tk asonably short time. This will impress upon hint as nothing else can the advantages of beiftg forehanded, as one expressive idiom has it..' Lastly, let him have a little money to spend on passing pleasures—candy, if that is a treat to him, or whatever he likes best; only make him know that self-indul-gence should come hist, not first, and that what is wasted cannot be had back again, A Black Cricketing Team, o Thirty-five years have passed since the Aboriginal Australian team of cricketers visited England. Their names provoke a smile : Eullocky, Cuzens, Dick-a-Dick, King Cole, Mullagh, Peter, Shepherd, Mosquito, Jim Crow, Charley. Tiger, Twopenny, and Redcap. They were trained by an old'Surry cricketer who had settled in Australia, Charles Lawrence, who accompanied them to England, and supervised their lour. The English climate proved fatal to one of them —King Cole—who died at Brighton before the tour was half over. In their opening match at the Oval they were badly beaten by eleven gentlemen of Snrrv, but they very nearly defeated the M.C.C. at Lord's. The novelty of black cricketers drew largo crowds to these matches. They achieved their first victory over eleven gentlemen of l.ewisham, who presented ltedcap with a silver cup in recognition of his brilliant play. One Way to Break Glass. n It is scarcely credible, bnt it is a fact, that a glass can be broken by the voice. If you strike a thin wineglass while- you hold it by the stem it vviil emit a certain note—in iinost cases a pretty deep one. On ' apjuoaehingihe glass rapidly to vbur mouth, ! and shouting into it tfie same note as : loudly as possible, the vibrations of the ; glass being thereby extended, it will be j shivered into fragments. This used to be a I favourite experiment of Lablache, the re- j nowned singer, wiio would thus break, one j after the other, as many'glasses as were j Resonance of Violins. The body of a violin is a resonant box, composed of a back and a bollv scooped out of solid wood, ami ribs planed and bent. The whole is ghicd together upon internal blocks. The pine belly is strengthened, and its vibrations are regulated and increased I foot of the longitudinal bar fixed inside,; derthe bridge. Two sound holes facilitate and modify tho vibrations which are set im 1™ the action of the bow upon tho tense It is a mistake to suppose that old u lt] wood is to be preferred, for, after a few years, pine loses its elasticity. Aware of this, the best makers use wood'that is barely wisoiifd. and preserve its elastic properties by applying tbir varnish at once. 'The superior resonance and uualilv, that. ' their supreme value to the host 11 violins, may, to some extent, be due to tho skilful use of varnish. This was originally regarded as ornamental and preservative, but experience has led to its application as a ry part of the finish of these- charming instruments, and some attribute to it a, The Way a Straw Blows.

Soughs and Heavy Colds STEADY IMPROVEMENT. Usually much time is wasted in treating "colds" by means of cough syrups which are of little utility, and often do more harm than good because of their disturbing effect upon digestion. As soon as you feel a cold coming on, begin immediately with Angier's Emulsion in doses of two teaspoonfuls every two or three hours. Take no other medicine—it is not necessary. Before twenty-four hours have elapsed you will notice an improvement. Within a short time cough is lessened, bronchial distress and soreness are less pronounced and expectoration easier Angier's Emulsion to completely eradicate a case of "cold." Angier's Emulsion is pleasant to take and agrees perfectly with delicate stomachs. A FREE SAMPLE £ «n receipt of 4d. or postage. Mention this paper.
