A Mighty Clever Girl
From the Detroit Free Press.

from Inc Detrolt rec Press
She lives at Ottawa, Canada, and this
is how she managed it: She thought it
would be just as well to commence
housekeeping right away, and begin the
new year with training up husband in
the way he should 60, but her father
thought differently. So she invited ali
her friends to the wedding at certain
church at given hour. OF course there
was big crowd, including the angry
father, who was prepared to forbid the
bans with a shotgun. Meanwhile the
young lady and her adored William went
to another church and were quietly mar
ried, and as they left the sacred edifce
she remarked that where there was
Will there was way.

Not AS He Expected.

Last Monday John G. Sarberry, of
Hannibal, put his old clothes ON the
river bank, anchored note to his wife
on top of them with stone, and hid
around to read his obituaries. When he
read in the first paper he got hold of that
{" that primordial dead-beat and free
lunch gobbler, Jack Sarberry, had been
good enough to the community and hui
manity to go to the devil without waiting
to be called for" he got SO mad he
couldn't read any further, but sailed into
town with club and did the hardest
days work of his life hunting for the
editor. Truly, it is not all of death to
die.-BurIington Hawkeye.

Mulchine in Winter.

1t often happens that mulching in
winter, applied even as late as January,
answers an excellent purpose. More
plants are injured or destroyed during
the freezing and thawing of the last half
of winter, connected with the bright
sun which is more frequent at that
time than during the earlier portion. On
a moderate scale, and when additional
fertilizing is not required, we find ever
green branches to answer an excellent
purpose, especially when the rotting of
green leaves may be feared from too
dense or impervious cover. But when
such danger does not exist, when mice
are not feared. and vigorous start to
the plants is desired in spring, nothing is
better than coarse stable manure with
plenty of litter. The richer portions
are washed out and carried down into
the soil, and the straw remains on the
the surface to protect from sharp winds,
freezing and thawing, and the effects of
the suns rays on the frozen plants.

Tho use of verbena In Spain.

In England, the fine lady plucks a
sprig and scents her hand with it !; SO
does the Spanish lady, but she knows
well its value, and treasures and dries
for Winter use every leaf of it. 1t is
here well known as one of the finest
cordials and stomachics in the world.
1t can be taken in two ways, either
made into decoction, with hot water
and sugar, and drank cold as a re-
Jresco and tonic, or better still. with
the morning and evening cup of tea,
thus-put a sprig of lemon verbena,
say five or SIX leaves, into the teacup
and pour the tea upon it you will
never suffer from flatulence, never be
made nervous and old-mMdish, never

petite. Besides the flavor is simply
delicious; no one who has once drank
their Pekoe with, will ever drink i,
without, a sprig of lemon verbena.
