XIII the Insects.

A correspondent says: For five years
I have not lost vine or plant, because
for the length of time have treated the
bugs, which once ate up my cucumber
and mellon vines, and cabbage plants,
showers of tar-water. I take a barrel
with a few gallons of gas tar in it,and pour
with repeated water on the tar. When the
bugs appear, give them liberal dose of
tar water from garden sprinkler. Ifthey
return, or more come, repeate the dose.
MY experience is, that it will kill both
the old Long-potato-bug and the Colo
RADIO potato beetle. As the water is used
from the barrel pour in more, so as to
have it ready when needed.

Kew York Mercury.


A few years ago shrewed, but some
what inexperienced young man, whom we
will call Oscar Tolles, was taken into the
employ of d firm Of private detectives
whose principal office was located on
Broadway.
Pecuniarily Oscar Tolles was independ-
ent Of any sort of work or profession what
ever; therefore, the reader will at once
surmlse that he had some object of ex-
traordlnary character IN making the
search OF unknown and concealed desper-
radoes and outlaws a business.
And the reader will be quite correct to
surmise thus.
Detectives whom he had liberal y
paid to trace an individual who, he be-
lieved, had caused the death of his father
or his mysterious disa ppearance, had
failed, and, therefore, he determined to
assume the role of detective himself.
The circumstances of his fathers disap.

all believed here, that England would acquire

has already -all the benefits which she
might secure by a protectorate without any
OF the ills that might accompanied formal as
sumption of responsibility. For a year
back a simple intimation of the English
ministry has had all the efficacy of an order

salaries-$2O,O $4,000, and $4,000 q

IN the country. If she can get such hold
upon the country as to be equivalent to 3
practical abdication by the Khedive, there
will be no necessity for doing more, no need
OF rlsklng rupture with France, which both
Germany and Russia have hoped to create.
TO give you clear understanding of mat
tiers will cite an instance or two of English
preferment. An Englishlnan has under his
management the entire Soudan. He was
forced upon the Khedive by the English
ministry. Indeed, on his arrival here. lust
before receiving the appointment, he refused
to see the Khedive until the counsel-general
here, the representative of the ministry, of
course, secured from the Khedive all that
was required-ths concession of absolute au-
thority, and the promise of salary of $780,
600 year. The navy is in English hands,
the coast-guard is also under English con-
troll, and the force detailed to execute the
provisions, of the slave treaty between Eng
land and Egypt is directed by Englishmen.
The railroads, the telegraph-lines, the Gus
toms and revenue collections are controlled
by England. Last of all comes the Wilson
commission. The Khed1ve claimed that the
taxes and other revenues of the country
were insufficient to keep the necessary ma
chin ry of the government in operation, if
he was obliged to pay the high rate of in
terest now exacted. The bondholders con-
tended that he could pay, and so, to deter
mine the matter, the commission was ap-
pointed. This is equivalent for the time
being to complete abdication. How long it
will last we can only guess, when the NAM
mon-loving members of the commission,
Wilson and his associates, are receiving such
princely salaries.
