A GOOD way to keep cut flowers
fresh is to lay them in wet cloths.
Take them out of the vases at night,
sprinkle with cold water, and then
wrap them In cloths made very wet
with cold water. The weight of the
cloth, will not crush the most delicate
flowers, while it keeps out the air an d
prevents their falling to pieces or

met with powerful accident that I've never
got over to this day. AS I was a comm
down a steep hill, some part of the gearin'
give way and let me and the wagin on my
ereetur's heels; and bein' young and skeery
and not much used to wheels, she riggled
and kicked and tore from one side of the
road to the other until I was pitched head
foremost as much as ten foot into deep
gully, and it's miracle of mercy that my
neck WASH ..broke on the spot.
''Expectin' to be killed every mint, I

was this Lord, make us thankful for what
we are about to receive.
"Now, my brethren, do you 'spose any

such a strait as that for prayer? No He
would have prayed for himself and gone
off after the Jews and heathens whilst I
was huntin' up and a gettin' off that

Steering Balloons,
London News,

If solution of the problem of aerial
navigation is ever found, it will probably be
In the devices of some modest inventor who
is content to let the winds have their own
way within certain reasonable limits instead
of seeking, as most aerostatic enthusiasts
have done, to battle their caprices by indie
pendent forces. Possibly Col. Martin, a mem
Der of the Balloon Society of Great
Britain" who has just published pamphlet
on this subject, may be destined to achieve
this happy result; for he stands, we believe,
almost alone among professors of aerial nav
igation IN making no pretense to do more
| than give to the motion of the balloon a
slightly oblique direction equal to lacking
within six points of the wind. This is to be
achieved by the simple apparatus which he
describes for concentrating and directing
part of the force of the air-current at will
on either side of the balloon, which at the
same time is prevented from gyrating. The
Importance of ballooning in war is now gen.
orally recognized; and it is clearly capable
of many valuable and scientific uses, includ-
ing the aiding of researches in the Arctic
and Antarctic regions. Col. Martins mod
crate claims are, therefore, well worthy
of attention
