pondent of an exchange says Plants
kept in sitting room where frequent
sweeping has to be done should be
covered until the dust has settled, as
dust upon the foliage Injuries the plant
by retarding its growth and bloom, as
leaves are to plant life what lungs are
to animal life.
Where scale or red spider have &C.
cumulated, as they will In a warm, dry
atmosphere or in dark situations, whale
oil soap suds showered over the leaves
and sponged off on the under side, or
turning the bottom up and dipping the
whole down into the decoction, will re-
move the pests. Where plants are
crowded into too small space, they will
generate the aphis or green fly, and
the thrip and mealy bug. Smoking or
washing the plants thoroughly will de-
stroy these also.
Above all, give your plants plenty OF
fresh air and all the sunshine possible.
But few plants will grow in the shade,

A oNK-LKGGED Yankee orator, named
Jones, was pretty successful in banter
ing an Irishman, when the latter asked
him: ''How did you come to lose your
leg?' "Well," said Jones, ''on ex-
amining my pedigree, and looking up
my descent, found there was some
Irish in me, and having become con-
vinced that it had settled in that left
leg, / had it cut off at once" 'Be the
powers" said Pat, sit would have been
q better thing if it had settled in your
head"

to receive q fresh impetus from the
labors of Mr.. Anger, French surgeon.
The main feature of these discoveries
is that pieces of skin taken from ampu-
tated limbs may be used to obtain
on the bodies of other
subjects. Hitherto the desired por-
tions of skin we're taken from one part
of patients body and applied to an
other part. 1t is stated, that in one
case the surgeon cut pieces of skin from
the palmer surface of an amputated
finger and applied them to the liberated
leg of another person. In three days
the bandages were removed and the
grated parts were found intimately
united to the surface and evidently
vascularized. 1t eeems essential to the
success of the process that the graft be
made Immediately after amputation.
The name given to this operation is
''heteroplasty."

BANK ROBBERY.
Particulars Concerning The Heavy Rob.
r5SbeFy at GreenViiIe. Ky.-NO Clue
TO the Robbers.


LOUISVILLE, September Sit is now
aScertained that the total amount stolen from
+. b, Hancock'S bank at Greenville, Ken
port, Is S3i i46O, as follows: United states bonds,
$4,000; legdl-tenders, $1,000; fractional curren-
cy, 5000; gold coin, Si46O. The EUening Ledger
says the robbery was effected Sunday about
midnight, and Is believed TO have been done
by eXpeI Js from the skillful manner in which
IL was conducted. Mr.. Hancock entered the
bank Monday morning, and had scarcely gone
in before he noticed the do JrS OF the safe
standing open. Examining further he found
the lock haG been sprung and the contents re
moved. Investigation proved IL at burglars
had been around. The tranSOm over the dOCI
opening on the street had been removed to af-
ford entrance and egress two chairs drawn up
in front of the place and left in that position,
showed that The thieves had taken their
time a doing the work. Tracks were found
near the corner of the house, where it is sup
posed one of the party must have stood watch
while the others secured the funds of the eS
Jablishment. Facts go to show that there
were three men engaged in the robbery. Sus-
piciOn is attached 10 three strangers who had
been seen lettering around town a few days
before. They were noticed especially at that
time by son of Mr.. Hancock, who is of the
opinion that he would know them again If he
should see them. They appeared TO be an
idliug set of wanderers, and nothing, so far as
We have been able to learn, has been heard Of
them Stnca, and 1t is now believed when seen
were COncUctlng their plan for the robbery,
which was afterward effected. Mr.. Hancock
has been in the b8nking business for several
wears and is considered an honorable and re-
liable man. He transacted great part of his
buSia himself, and there could have been
no possible chance for any one connected
with the institution to have committed the
robbery as the deposits amounted to nothing
OF consequence, and as MIR. Hancock has q
competency the loss falls on himself. He is
still regarded as able to meet his liabilities,
and mis- hackers here have signifled 10 him
their willingness TO fill any check for him he
might present. The event occasiOned great
deal Of excitement in the vicinity in which ii
occurred. Steps have been taken to secure
the robbers, but as yet no clue has been dis
covered except the suspicion mentioned. 1t
is not believed, az has been suggested, that
James or the Younger brothers had anything
to do with the transaction,
