Can any one tell how men live

Can any one tell why four

Can any one tell why it is that
some mothers are always ready

Watering House Plants.

The Gardea disputes the rule
that water should be given in
moderately small quantities, and
supplied frequently. fthe caus-
es OF failure where plants are
cultivated in windows were mi
nutely investigated, the drib-
bling system of watering would
be found to be the principal
cause. A plant ought moi to be
watered until it is in a fit condi-
ton to receive a liberal supply
Of that element, having previous
ly secured a good drainage, in
order that all superintendent wa
ter may be quickly carried off.
Those who are constantly drib-
bling a moderately small guam
tity Of water upon their plants
viii not have them in flourish
ing condition any length of time
This must be obvious to all, foi
it is quite evident that the mod
erately small quantity of watel
frequently given would keep the
surface Of the soil moist, while
at the same time, from the ef:
fects Of good'drainagc, which If
essential to the well-being of al
plants in an artificial state, al
the lower roots would perish fol
want of water, and the plant be

Forecasting the Weather.

Here is the way you can get
credit for a wonderful deal of
wisdom. Read and remember.
An intensely blue sky indicates
very heavy rains in not over
forty-eight hours. A grey hazy
sky indicates continuous dry and
hot weather. a southeast wind
indicates a storm in the north
west. fit rains when a north
west wind sets in, it will soon
stop. When a west wind sets
in,no matter what the weather is,
at least three days of fair wealth
er will follow.
There are only two kinds of
clouds Of primary character, first,
those that float high, and those
that float low. Those that float
high, six to nine miles, are of q
gauzy structure. Those that float
low,one to three miles,are called
pile clouds. When helow clouds
are sharply defined against, the
blue sky, rain may be expected
If the gauzy clouds, instead Of
becoming cumulus, or piled up
reascend and dissolve, no rain
need be expected until they low
er again, which is generally with
in twenty-four hours. These are
the rules that the farmer and
the sailor work by, and after &
little study are found quite reli-
able.

has got it down fine. He has
reduced it to a perfect system.
He has his regular customers,

door of a house. The owner
came out. As soon as he saw
the tramp he said: "Now, look
here, last week | gave you a
nickel to stay away for ten days,
and here you are back again."
The tramp put his hand to his
forehead and was lost in thought
for several minutes. Then he
said, "You are right, Colonel.
Your regular assessment is not
due yet for "a week. When /

until dusk THERE turned to

to the "Great Robbery" and

nouncement that ''the loss of the
Jewels would be less felt had
there not been between the
two bottoms of the box almost
goo in bank notes, of which,
unfortunately, the numbers had
not been taken"

Mr.. Muggridge, when, an hour
later, that worthy excitable gen.
tleman rode, very hot and very
red, up the shadeless road to
complain Of my having "made a
cOnfOunded mess of the account,
you know" l simply advised
him TO wait for a very few days,
and then l would be happy to
explain every thing.
That evening,as usual, / left the

the most of the day in watching

something else--whether any

hundred yards from the grounds,

Surely they should have come
by this time. Still-Was
that sound on the road ? Yes,
and coming from the village,
too! There were evidently sew
eral of them, and l began to re-
greet not having brought some
help. Nearer they came, laugh
ing and talking, as l cautiously
drew back from the road. And
now they were opposite the spot
where the box lay hid. But,
what ! They've gone by; and
in the hearty guffaw of the man

honest fellow, whose acquaint-
ance | had made during my
short stay. After this sell, l
: had almost given up, and was
actually making up my mind to
, abandon the affair when a faint
, sound from down the road made
me crouch as low as possible
once more. 1t was no hoax
, this time. A short, thin man,
whom | easily recognized as
man of all work who had been
helping the gardener that day,
was creeping stealthily down
the road close to the bushes.
As soon as he reached the spot
where the box had been thrown,
he lit a small lantern TO aid him
III his search. This time | felt
sure; and sO,when the man blew
out the light, after securing the
supposed treasure, the capture
was made.

The man made a confession;
Indeed, he was caught in the

tie down quietly, when, one
month later, | received my pro-

The First Oil Well.

The First Oil Well.
~ < [Pelrslsnnl -WOrld.l 49,
A story is published in a Cum
bcrland Valley newspaper to the
effect that oil was found in large
quantities near Burksville, Ken
as early as 1928. IN
fortunately all the witnesses are
dead. 1t is claimed, however,
that some Of the oil is sill re-
tanned in bottles, bat we Wi
have to insist that this testimony
is not competent. Tie article
in theCumberland Coz
rjer, and is as follows: Some
time since we read an article in
a Northern Journal making the
statement that Colonel Drake,
who put down the first oil well
in Pennsylvania, had been pen
stoned for the great discovery
made by him. The fact is in
disputabIe that Colonel Drake
did first sink a well for oil in
Pennsylvania, yet, many years
previous to that a company OF
Cumberland County gentlemen,
who are long since deceased,
formed copartnershlp for the
purpose OF boring for salt. water,
and in pursuance thereof they
sunk well near the town OF
Burksyille, Kentucky, about two
and a half miles from this place,
on the Columbia Road.
When they had reached the
depth of eighty feet they struck
petroleum. IN large quantities.
1t flowed for two weeks, filling
Ranox Creek bridge deep, and
running oGfinto the Cumberland
River, covering the river fol-
twenty miles, when some mis-
chicvous chap set fire to it, in
consequence ofwhich navigation
was impossible for days. 1t is
estimated that thousands OF bar
rels escaped from this well al
that time, and. thousands since,
This was.i 1923. Some Of oul
oldest citizens remember this
and VIII verify our statement,
1t was the first and is the oldest
oil we'll in the world. At this
time the company, knowing moth
ing of It's value, its use and
qualities, abandoned the work,
In the course Of time, hOwev-
er, some e4aterprising quack doc
tor strolling through the coun-
try, discovered that it had great
medical qualities as a liniment.
lie therefore engaged with the
owners of the well to deliver to
him, in bottles, great quantities
to be shipped North, where he
prepared and sold it for medical
ailments of all sorts, shipping tc
Europe, as well, where it soor
became very popular, and called
and known there as the "Amer-
ican Oil" from which circum-
stances the well was called, and
is now known here as the "Old
American Oil Well" There is
now a large number of bottles
filled and corked, ready for ship

the owners, still in possession
of Mr.. Ed. Baker, son Of one Of
the company, which was never
for some reason, delivered. VIZ
have seen the oil, and can certi'
fly to its superior quality. Since
this time (1865), when to strike
oil was a fortune, many wells
have been sunk in the county
with like success; in fact, The
county is full of oil, and thu
wells sunk are too numerous t
mention. 1t is only a question
Of time as to its development.

How to Clean the Floor.
TWoman's JournaL.l

If You have a painted floor
keep soap and soap suds off of
it, for it spots tie brightness of
the paint, makes it soft and
then it pcels off, leaving the
floor looking worse than if il
had not been painted.
If your floor has not been
painted, keep soap off of it for
it gives it a~,airty, grimy look
and keeps growing worse all the
time. Just take clean, hot wa
ter, put a tcaspoonlul of spirits
into a three gallon pail of water,
stir it, and with clean long
handled mop rub the floor all
over, then wipc it off with clean
water. 1t will take a little while
to get the gray out of the boards,
but it will come after a time, land
You will find it far easier to
keep your floor white and nice
Than when it was cleaned with
soap or suds.
