The "Star of Hope" newspaper is published tvi ice a week in the fa- mous .Sing-Hills Prison of New York. Its contributors, editors, ar- tists, compositors, and publishers are the convict inmates. From be- ginniii<r to tnd the work is carried out scls-iy by the prisoners.

CANADA'S EXPORTS. â-  Canada produces one bushel ol wheat to thiity bushels grown else- where in the world. Notwitjistand- ing tliis tact, Cana.da is by far the laijj.st e.xportor of agricultural im- pltMR-nts in the world, her i)opula- tion Ijcing taken into consideration. 1 luini; the jiast seven yearn the cx- [lorts of Canadian Implements have readied the vast total of ten mil- liims of diilitirs, or equal to the ex- |iort of twenty million liusl.els of wheat grown in the great Norlh- wcs-t at lifty cents per busliel. Those facts .should certainly e.-Jtnbli.sh in the minds of all tiiiiiking fanners the excollent quality and the higli ici'utation which ajipcrtain to Cnn- iiclian-tnade iinplenu'iits. Canadian iiniileir.eiits arc exported to e\oty count r\- in the world whoie grain is grown, e.\cppt to the United States. That niarket is a sealed book to Canadian implement manufacturers as well as to the Canadian farmer, for hardly any of his products find a market Ihure. while the aggres- sive American is conqpeting all over the world, and in Canada, too, for evory inch of giound now held by the Canadian fanner and nianuf.-icturer. Don't yon think it would be to your own ni!v.<i.nt£gi'. as well as to the advantage of Canada as a na- tion, that articles .â- s.liould be grown and made at home that are con- BUtiicd by "' the Canadian people? Think the matter over, and see whe- tlier it is iint your duty to work for this end. WHALE'S APPETITE. A whale's appetite is phenomenal. His chief diet consists of jellyfish. He has simply to open his mouth and paddle along leisurely in oruer to take in jellyfish by the wagonload. Such is the methoff adopted by the whalebone whale. Thie sperm whale, on the contrary, captures huge stiuids, weighing often several tons. Like his brother, the whalebone whale, he must be constantly on the lookout for food; otherwise he would starve. As many as fourteen seals have been taken from a thirty-foot "killer." (ither Ijshes of enormous appetite are not uncommon. The bluefish, for e.xainple, thrives on sar- dines and other small fish. Most curious of all eaters is the hydra â€" a strange creature that can he turn- ed inside out without impairing his appetite or its power to eat. Deafness Cannot Be Cured by local applications as they cannot reach tin; di.seased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure deafness, anil that is by constitutional remedies. IJeafness is cau.?ed by an inllamed con- dition of the mucous lining of the Eus- tachian Tube. When this tube is inflam- ed you have a rumblmi? sound or ira- pcriect Injuring, and when it is entirely closed. Poftfness is the result, and un- less tha iiitlamniation can be taken out and this tube .-estored to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed for- ever. Nine cases out of ten arc caused by Catarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed condition of the mucous ser- viCL*.

Oermany has a pay-wedding, at which the bride receives her guest;; with a basin before her in which each pei'son entering deposits a jewel, a silvgp spoon, or a piece of money. In soiue parts of (Germany the rule is that the expenses of the marriage feast shall be met by each guest paying for what he eats or drinks. The prices paid for viands and drinks are high, and the young couple often make a handsome pro- fit out of their wedding, realizing a sum quite sufficient to start them nicely in life. Sometimes as many as 300 guests are present at such weddings. The Polish wayâ€" to be seen at their weddings â€" of getting the bride a •dot" is very similar to that of the Germans.
