t the polls. The law is a good on 2
for mady reasons, and one among these
reasons is .that tho hoodlums who
used to stand around the polls on
election day with their bauds full of
tickets are new out ot an occupation.
TJndor the Australian law people can
go to tho polls and vote without being
annoyed by the slum of the cities and

tlie prospet of moving ordinary trains
by electricity is about as good now as
the profpecta of lightic j cities by elec
tricity were before the discovery that
electricity could b? generated by a dy-camo-eleetric
machine. The radical
improvement looked for ia the direct
generation of electricity from the en

of the boiler furnaces, the steam en
gine and the dynamo. .

The duration of life depends neither
on climate nor focd nor race nor any
external condition, btft on the natural
constitution and intrinsic vigor of our
organs. One hundred rears is the cats

those errors and escessca ia he manner
of living which impair the organaand

-time of jSoah to tho days of Joshua and
3lo3es the record is one ot successive
and gradual- decrease 'a longevity.
Joshua wared old and stricken in years
some time before his death at one hun
dred and ten. The whole of life teems

more or less its duration. Iu a manu-

We beg to call your attention to onr new patented
BREAD, CAKE AND PARING KNlVESi
Which we are now placing upon the market, and with which we are
suppling
A LON'G-FELT NEED TO HOUSEKEEPERS.
Cut herewith represents our Bread Knife, which as will be observed,
has a scalloped or serrated edge, as has also the Cake Knife, which adds
greatly to cutting quality of the knivoa. and is therefore a vast improvement
over the knife with a plain smooth edge. . . ......
With the Bread Knife, warm bread can be eut as easily as cold, always
leaving a nice even surfaco to the bread. It is also, found' quite nsefnl ia
slicing ham and all kinds of meat. EDWARD 8. LILLY -
