A Bad Accident.

News has been received here of a lamentable accident that happened to Will Bowman, formerly of Rensselaer, at Puebla, 001., last Friday. Bowman and a companion were painting the tracks of a traveling crane at a steel works at Puebla. While working on the tracks sixty fe.et in the air some one started the crane and without warning it was upon them. Bowman’s companion, a man by the name of Smith, was killed instantly by being run over and cut in two. Bowman was more fortunate and his life will probably be saved. He had both jaws and five ribs broken and his head badly cut and bruised.

The Christmas Dinner.

In spite of the fact that the word dyspepsia means literally bad cook, it will not be fair for many to lay the blame on the cook if they begin the Christmas dinner with little appetite and end it with distress and nausea. It may not be fair for any to do thatlet us hope so for the sake of the cookl The disease dyspepsia indicates a bad stomach, that is a weak stomach, rather than a bad cook, and for a weak stomach there is nothing else equal to Hood’s Sarsaparilla. It gives the stomach vigor and tone, cures dysspepsia, creates appetite and makes eating the pleasure it should be.

The January Designer.

The art features of The Designer for January, 1903, are effective to a marked degree, and are typioal of the progressiveness of this popular publication, whioh is always the herald of up-to-date fashions and interests essentially feminine. Edited by women, it caters especially to womanly tastes. Most charming and original are the fanoy oostumes, and stylish and seasonable are the millinery designs, the latter being acoompanled by a practical article on hat making. “In-door Exercises for Children,” by Dr. Sarah A. Frenoh-Battey, and “Toilet Table Chat” are of real hygienic value, and the departments of “What Women Are Doing” and “Helps Along the Way,” both edited by the readers of The Designee, are helpful and deoldely novel. The literary features comprise two short stories, “At Heron’s Crag,” by Elizabeth Roberts Macdonald, and “Mr. Coyote,” by L. O. Lennart, “The Domestic Side of the White House,” by Waldon Fawcett, “The Feast of the Kings,” by Q. W. Jacobs, and a parlor comey, “A Sudden Inspiration,” by Mary Dawson. Mary Kilsyth furnishes “Attractive Corners,” Josephine Yates, “Some Employment for Busy Fingers.” and Ila Earle Fowler tells us what to do “When the Stocking Bag is Full.” Peacil and Paper Games,” by Mrs. 8. P. Carusi, supplies numerous instructive and jolly entertainments for young folks and their elders, all of which may be arranged at trifling cost. •“Points on Dressmaking,” “Fashions and Fabrics,” “Etiquette Hints,” “Book Notes,” “Floriculture,” “In Motherland” and “The Kitchen Kingdom” are departments some one of which will appeal to some one member of the family. The verse in this number is supplied by Florence Gertrude Ruthven.
