given to the Revue lIorticole his method
Of destroying coekroachss, which are
found very destructive and annoying,
both in greenhouses and in dwellings.
I'trfs plan Is to take package of match

with this water by mixing 1t with pound
OF -four and six or seven ounces fsugar.
Place this mixture where the cockroaches
will most readily find it, and it will de-

IMPROVEMENTS TO CENTENARY METHODIST
CHURCH The Centenary Methodist church
Of this city is to be thoroughly remodplled
and reconstructed. The work will soon be
in the bands of the contractors. The church
will certainly be closed after the second Sum
day Of this month. The congregation has ac-
cepted the invitation of the Broad.Street
Methodist church to unite with them in
public services during the time the Cepte-
nary church edifice is occupied By the build
ers-at least till such time as the lectare-roona
may be completed and ready for use. The
Centenary Sunday school will, by the cour-
tesy and kindness of the Young Mems Chris
tian Association, use the Association Hall for
their Sunday-school exercises.
During the joint occupancy of the Broad.
Street church for public service by the two
congregations the peWs will be considered
as entirely free. Each congregation will use
its own envelopes for the usual weekly con-
tributions, and thus keep up the financial
system Of Centenary congregation without
serious interruption. Rev. DR.. Granbery
and the Rev. DR.. Edwards, the two pastors,
will preach by alienation while the congre-
cations are united. 1t is expected at an
early day TO commence protracted religious
services at Broad-Street church, probably
continuing for several weeks, when services
will be held every night.
