some baskets of fancy form with plia-
BILE copper wire, and wrap them with
gauze. Into these tie to the bottom
voilets, ferns, geranium leaves-in fact,
any flowers except full-blown roses-and
sink them in solution of alum of one
pound to gallon of water, after the
solution has cooled. The colors will
then be preserved in their original beau
ty, and the crystalized alum will hold
faster than when from hot solution.
When you have light covering of crys-
tails that covers completely the article,
remove the basket carefully, and allow
it to drip for twelve hours. The bas-
kets make beautiful parlor ornament,
and for q long time preserve the fresh
ness of flowers.

s-Y" The real waste among well-to-
do farmers, says the Boston Journal of
Chemistry " Is in the throwing away Of
house slops, and in allowing the liquid
excrement of animals to be lost. 1t is
better to advise farmers to save every
drop of the liquids of the house and
barn, than to urge them to pile up huge
heaps OF inert substances to be used as
fertilizers. A heap of dry muck orpeat,
which in itself has no special value, may
be used advantageously to absorb the
valuable liquids of the house and barn,
and in this way farmer may largely
increase his manurial resources without
incurring great expense"

TICKETS, SIR"

This was the way it happened. One
of the regular attendants at Central
Church, is a railroad conductor. He is
regular, not SO much from any personal
inclination for Calyinis1.ay ~ fkaya Eae
fact that he has frst-rate Presbyterian
wife who keeps him i'll the way he
should go. A few Sundays since one
OF the deacons was absent, and our con-
ductor. was requested to pass the plate.
OF course he consented. For the first
dozen pews everything passed off we'll.
There was regular financial shower of
nickles and dimes, and the railroad man
watched sharp, but couldn't see that
anybody "got away" without respond
ing. Finally he came to seat where
the occupant was either busted or disin-
clined, for he shook his head, but made
no attempt on his pocket. The con-
ductor looked at him sharply, but no
cash appeared. Then he nudged his
shoulder, and softly called: Ticket,
sirl" Again the mans head wagged
horizontally, but the stamps didn't
come. f" Pass, then!' whispered the
conductor. Still no response. Just as
tho railroad chap was about to call up
the fireman and brakeman to help pitch
the impecunious worshiper out of doors,
the regular deacon came in, and re-
lieved his proxy. The conductor says
he believes in running a church the
same way you would a railroad train.
II man won't pay, or hasn't pass,
let nim git.
