One of the pre.tiest things for the living
room, where a conservatory is not had, is
smilax, native Of Good Hope, graceful in
elegant spray, and always useful with cut
flowers. 1t may be propagated from seed,
but is better raised from the bulbs which,
of the growing plants, may be obtained
from any florist or dealer in florists goods.
Once started, and grown through the win
ter, it should be allowed to dry off during
May, June and July, and be again started
in August or September. Being a running
vine, il should be provided with string to
cling to, to which the slender runners readi
lily attach tn mselves. When you want the
spray, cut a. much as you desire, and il
will again readily reproduce.
Smilax will not stand frost, and req uires
rather light but rich soil, good drainage
for the pots, and, above all, plenty of wat er
So far as light is concerned, it will grow in
partial shade. II the seed is sown, il
should be in pan covered with pane of
gla4, and kept just moist until the seeds
eerminate, which they are SLOW in doing.
When they are three or four inches high,
transplant in three inch pots, and as they
attain size shift into larger pots until for
strong plants six-inch pots may be used
An occasional Watering with liquid ma
nure il be1ificial to increase the color of the

Gorernor McCreary and the Mlner.

Without recourse, says the Frankfolt t
(Ky.) Commonwealth, we print the fol.
lowing incident connected with tlip OF
Governor McCreary: 1t appears the
Governor was travelling ON railroad
train, and sat down in n seat whose other
half was occupied by rough, uncouth-
looking stranger, who appeared not in-
disposed to engage the Governor, who
was unknown to him, in conversation.
In his efforts in that direction the stran-
ger drew from his pocket handful OF
gold coin, and announcing that "thar
was no better stuff to keep feller goin'
in this ere country, he jingled it in a
self-satisfied way.
:" 1t does have Il pleasant look, " said
the Governor, smiling III his usual bland
way.
"Yes, she's good-reg' 'lar-built shi-
ners-and I've got few more of the
same Sort" said the stranger as he
pulled his vest mp and showed belt
around his body that was puffed out with
gold coin.
"Ain't no better to be found in nll Col
Grady" calculated the stranger with an
innocent chuckle
The ostentatious way in which the
stranger paraded his wealth, and which
had already attracted the attention of
other persons in the car, suggested TO
Governor McCreary the fatherly idea Of
warning the stranger of the danger he
ran in thus exposing his money to pub
lie view.
My friend" said he, "you may be
a long ways from home and not fully
aware of the great hazard you run in
showing your money to people. You
may be robbed by some desperate vii
lain who may even now be Watching
you.
The stranger widened his mouth IN la
broad grin, and reaching both hands
back under his coat, he drew out and
displayed to the astonished governor a
couple of navy skies, loaded to the muz-
zle, remarking as he did SO;
Wal, no, l guess not-not while
these ere pups know how 10 bark. You
just bet yer pile they won't keep still
when a feller calls for that little lot o.
gold. Pm wus nor mad BUTLER on a
Rocky grizzly when my dander is up.

the overshadOwing questions of Cathol-
icism how labor and capital are to be
harmonzel, and strikes and monOpolies
dealt with these are some of the ques-
tions that project themselves upon the
times, and cast their lengthening
shadows out upon our future. Citizen
education il our rock and fortress of
defense for these, and the gates of hell
shall not prevail against it. Fixed on
this foundation, the fabric of our great
ness will stand out like a pyramid upon
the rounding centuries, and the storm
bands of the ages may strike but shall
not shatter down its massive strength.
And now, ladies and gentlemen, 1
have enclosed the triangle and built
upon its area with what strength / could.
l hope I have in some small measure at
least, succeeded in making manifest the
right lines of direction in the wide and
important domain of inquiry that
correct individual education begins with
the child at the fireside; that prudence,
virtue, religion, justice and utility,
should not be made subordinate to text
books that definition and rote-learning
are as inscriptions on the facade, whiie
things, exemplars and actions are the
foundations, columns and key-stones OF
the edifce. That industrial education
is the mechanical product, so to speak,
of this discipline, that it is mind infused
into matter-soul projected into the arts
and handic-afts, creating values out Of
the soil, and wood, and gold, and iron
of the planet the very apotheosis oi
labor. That political education com.
prehends these, and further includes
whatever goes to complete an American
citizen that private virtues make
public morals, and that the masses are
to be killed in public affairs, and edu'
Gated in State craft. For this and these,
the laws are handed down from Judge
to jury, not in tablets of stone, but il
inscriptions on the hearts and lives o.
men. For this the messengers o.
thought and help are waited out of every
morning breeze from printing press an(
publisher to drop in every will an(
hamlet of our land thick as autumn
leaves in Valambrosa's bower. Ft
this the electric wires thrill with tn,
heart-throbs of the world, and the
courier hghtn'ngs &c in their passage
through the skies"
Individual, industrial and citizen edu
cation, these are the caryatides that up
hold and support the government o
the fathers. Let either of these NOV
ont of their appointed stations and tn
continent will be filed with the noise o
the falling ruins of our fabrics and tn
broken furniture of our capitals. LIE
these remain, aud our government vii
remain, our flag will remain, surmount
ing with its triple gloly the kinglies
dome of the ages, and sending its thur
, derhoods of light and peace over th
horizons of the world, to the last syllabl
q of recorded time.
