Ten -ars -r :.!. re a :..) 1 tr'cd '.he. use of ;
laper bauds and e..s tar, in various
forms, on my peach trees, and, when '
caref::lly appii' d, it was eifeclive in. ex- :
fhi'lin:.; borers, but for t'e pa-d S'3ven or
eii;'it years I have l'lactir-eil a much j
more excellent way. and I know other ;
fruit growers wholeive dotie the same, ;
and wa.iM net think of jroiivj b.p.k to I
the old methols. It is simply usin i
carbi.lie acid, which is tie' essence or :
spirit of ia.i tar, and is easily mai'.e to !
combine with water by adding soap, !
while the lav itself will not combine, i
and is far less sife and cleanly in its ap- I
plica! ion. My rule for prevent ia.'j hot - ;
ers is to t;et a pint of crude carbolic acid ',
fo--!ij twenty-live cents, a;, 1 is suf- !
lieiept for twenty ai'o is of the va ill. ;
Take ,i tiht banc! and put in four or i
!iv vallon-: of nd't soap, witli as mneli !
hot water to thin it : then stir in thf j
pint ot carbolic acid, and let stand over !
ni'.'hl or h '!!'. r to combine. Now add !
twelve iredions of li'iii watfi and stir;
veil : then apply to the hae : th" tree
with a shoil broom or ol.i iaint brush,
taking pains to wet inside o! all crevices. 1
This will prevent both apple and p'-ach ;
borers. It should tie applied the latter :
part of June in this ciimate, when the 1
moths and b. aih s usually appear. Tne i
odor is so p'.n,riPt and latin that no
( urs will be .-ep isi'e 1 where it h .-; been
applied, and the c!T"cts will i-ontinue !
untii after the i'ieet s havp done tp. in.j. !
If the crude acid cannot be obtained
: one-tbird of the pure will answer, but !
it is more expensive. ZVc'.' Ii

also saw a man making a knife by ce.t
tinvj a thick piece of iron with a cold
chisel, afterward to be pounded out d it
and ground down on stones. The rn
tire operation would probably take three
or four weeks with the poor tools at their
disposal.
The builder s de:ls snow of the proper
von.-istency by souiolm adrift with a
cane made tor the purpose, id' ivinde' r
horn, sUM'r-i'.itei.ed by steaming, and
worked down until about half an inch

The liouse bfd:; 1 ailt pa-s s into the
care of the women, who arrap.:e the
beds and put up the !,.m;-s for liuhtia-?,
warm in e and cookinr. The woman's
phve in th" iloo is on either side of the
I. -d and next to the wall. In front id
her she arranges her lamp, which is a
lonir, shallow ba.-in of so, ip, tone, the
front ed.'t; straight and the back describ
ing an arc. The wick, which is com
posed of pulveried moss, is arrai," 1
along the front e 1 and kept m o:w-i:r
by the oil Unit ti ils the limp by t il' in x it
forward, the lamp delicately poised, with
this end in view, upo:: thr. e sticks driv
en into tin-snow beneath it. If there b
t wo women th. y occupy both ends of tl.e
bed, each with le-r lamp in front of her.
Over each lamp is eonstincte la frame
upon w hich to dry stock iocs t hilt have
become nioistened by perspired ioti dur
ing the da's exercis". and fr m which
depends the kettle for inei t ing snow or
ice to make water to rook. The dis
tinctive Ksquimaux kettle or quee-.-ik
is made of soiipstone and is tlat-bot-tomed.
It is inadii long and narrow, so
as to tit the il une of the laoap and lode
rive all the lnelit ii.jssinle tliercfrom.
It has the advantage over the iron and
copper kettles that have come into use
through trade with the whabnie:i and
Hudson I'.ay Company's posts of cooking
more rapidly -ind of not I ing injured if
leftover the tUme without water.
It is the duly of the women to attend
constantly to the lamps, to ini-:t w.pt r
for drinkin? and to rook the food. They
also tun; the wet shoes and stoi i.in ;s
inside nut and dry them at night. A
"good wife"' is iiiia who slee ps but bttie
after a hardp! ay's march, ieit attends
constantly to'tiie articles upon the dry
ing frame, turning them over and re
placing the dry With wet. When one
faame full of rlothhig has been d; ied she
places th" articles under her in the bed
so that the.heat of ner body w iil kt t p

upon the frame with oth.-rnrticlt-s. S';

CHESTNUT-ST. ENTRANCE.
THE STORE AND THE TRADE.
A study of this ground plan, incom
plete as it is, will give you a better idea
of the store, and of what Is in it, than de
scription can do. The store covers 2 v
acres ; a basement is under, and galleries
are over, a part. The whole affords
somewhere about 5 acres of room.
This particular business is 4 years old;
it began in 1S76 with clothing ; in 1877
it became a general store with such goods
as you see in the plan, with carpets, upholster)-,
furniture, and kitchen-furnishing
up-stairs. Since that time jyallery after
gallery has been added; and there is
not an inch of room to spare anywhere.
To the surprise of many, it has flourished
while trade was languishing almost
everywhere else.
To us there is no mystery about it.-
nothing surprising even ; unless it be
surprising that so conspicuous a business
should ever be misunderstood. We do
nothing more than simply to provide
facilities for your getting what you want.
Wc don't mean to say that other
facilities arc not provided for distributing
goods ; but that's a different thing.
We provide so that you get what you
want, exactly tchat yon ivant! In the
first place we've got it. In the second
place we send it. And if wc send you
the wrong thing, or if you think the
charge is too much, you bundle it back
vo us.
We tell of these things in the news
papers, because there are thousands of
you who don't know what we are
doing; thousands of you don't know the
character of the stock that fills these 5
acres; thousands of you who, therefore,
buv where you pay more money.
We arc every merchant's fair and
open competitor. We do not expect to
gather millions of trade from all over
the country without meeting opposition
and misrepresentation. Some will be
lieve whatever is said against us. The
only answer v:m make iu: Send back
whatever you don't want at the price.
We want your trade. You want our
goods ; or would want them, if you
knew. Xo matter how far away you
may be ; you will do well to send to
us for some tilings. We ask you to
wrtLe to us about something you have
present occasion for.
When we get in communication with
von, we shall have one means of winnintr
(v;t- trade, vi::., by pleasing you'. When
we have won it. wc shall have one means
( f keeping it, viz., by dealing with you
as we deal with everybody: ijivincr vou
large return for your money, and sup
plying your wants so intelligently that
vou will write us for what you want as
naturally as you say
