“liillipiu Lund, or Peep-Show 
for the Young,” is a new juvenile, by the editor of

ings, music, etc. Almost 400 large pages; a most capi¬ 
tal holiday book, for the remarkably low price of $1.25.

Citadelle is the name of a pleasing and 
very neat game, something on the principle of Bagatelle.

to the home attractions at a moderate expense. It is 
made by Warner & Co., Northampton, Mass. 
Remedy for Scsih. —“ H. A.,” Smith Co., 
Kansas.—The remedy for scab mentioned—viz.: 7 lbs. 
each of lime and sulphur boiled together in 60 gallons of 
water, is one frequently used by shepherds. It is safe, 
but not so effective as the tobacco dip mentioned in 
Stewart’s “ Shepherd’s Manual." The lime and sulphur, 
upon being boiled together, form a new compound (Sul¬ 
phide of Calcium), which destroys the scab insects when 
it touches them. To enable it to reach insects in their 
burrows in the skin, the scabs should be broken up thor¬ 
oughly.
