The fatal rapidity with which slight 
Colds aud Coughs frequently develop 
Into the gravest maladies of the throat 
and lungs, is a consideration which should 
impel every prudent person to keep at 
hand, as a household remedy, a bottle of 
AYER’S CHERRY PECTORAL. 
Nothing else gives such immediate- relief 
and works so sure a cure in all affections 
of this class. That emiuont physician, 
Prof. F. Sweotzer, of the Maine Medical 
School, Brunswick, Me., says:— 
‘‘Medical edeuce baa produced no o'her ano¬ 
dyne expectorant eo good as Ayer’s Cherry 
Pectoral. It ia invaluable for diseases of the 
throat aud lungs.” 
The same opinion is expressed by the 
well-known Dr.L.J. Addison, of Chicago, 
111., who pays:— 
“I have never found, in thirty-five years of 
continuous study aud practice Of medicine, any 
preparation of so great vaiueas Ayer’s Cherry 
Pectoral, for treatment of diseases of die 
throat and lungn. It not only breaks up colds 
and cures severe coughs, but is more effective 
than anything else in relieving even the most 
serious bronchial and pulmonary affections."

There is not. a household in which this

AYfcK’S CHERRY PECTORAL has, 
in numberless instances, cured obstinate

and even acute Pneumonia, and has 
saved many patients in the earlier stages 
of Pulmonary Consumption. It is a 
medicine that only requires to be taken in 
small doses, is pleasant to Ihc taste, and : s

children, as there is nothing so good as 
\ Y Eli’S CHERRY PECTORAL for treat¬

verified by anybody. and should be re¬ 
membered by everybody.

CANNING SQUASH 
1 see no reply, as yet, to the inquiry of 
Mrs. A. A. iu the Rural of March 22, for di¬ 
rections for canning squash. I have been 
quite successful this year. I have tried seve¬ 
ral ways, but give the preference to the fol¬ 
lowing, as most simple and sure. I cut off the 
skin because it facilitates the straining so 
much, cut into small pieces aud ste>v with as 
little water a» possible and avoid burning. 
Strain while hot, by rubbing with a spoon 
through a colander Return at once to the 
stove, adding about a teaspoonful of salt to a 
cauful of squash. Stir often, to prevent burn¬ 
ing, aud when thoroughly heated through put 
it iuto warm cans, shaking and packing as 
solid as possible. I use cans having tops tDat 
cannot fly off unless the cans break (I find the 
LightniDg Fruit. Jar very convenient), for ray 
failures, particularly when 1 tried sweetening 
with molasses, consisted of the cover flying 
off and a sort of squash fountain coming up 
from the can. 
1 find t hat if I once let the squash get cooled 
through before putting it iuto the caus, it is 
very difficult, if not impossible, to heat it up 
without burning. 1 have yet two cans which 
are apparently keeping well. 
I wonder if the lady readers know that a 
chamois skin is very nice for ''finishing ’ the 
cleaning of looking glasses, windows, lamp- 
chimneys. etc., as well as for cleaning silver' 
If soiled m the latter use, they may be washed 
in warm water and hard soap, rubbing with 
the bauds until as clean as new. Dry, and rub 
again with the hands until soft and like new. 
I have one still good that has beeu in use 
about four years, aud washer! probably a 
dozen times. lizzie b.
