RATION.
a FEw sEASONABLE Directions AS TO
PRESSING. AND WAXING THE
PLANTS

July AND August is The most favor
able time for gathering ferns, as they
are then At their BEST. In pressing,
The indispensable requisites to q good
result are a sufficient quantity OF
paper,a perfectly even pressure and q
proper degree OF weight. The paper
should be of aolt, porous nature and
unglszed. Blotting paper Is consid-
cred best. bat newspaper will do very
vel. Books ere most conve-
nient il lheY ca q be found OF sufficient
size and unglazed. Ifpaper il used,
fold It to the desired size and be care
full to make the edges perfectly even.
Place the frs: paper upon a level
surface, then a layer OF ferns face
dowB, then about fifteen sheets Of
paper aad SO continue till the pack
age is completed. Cover with o
smooth bit OF board of the same size
and place heavy weight upon it,
rocking it in every direction until the
ferns ara perfectly smooth. Remove
the heavy weight and substitute one
ri perhaps ten or twelve pounds.
81 sure that tue pressure is exactly
equal. for il the package tits in the
least the ferns vii! be spoiled. II the
weight is too heavy or too little paper
10 used they will turn brown, il the
weight is not heavy enough they will
De rough, and If there ia any Unequal
ity they will be emooth in some places
and rough in otEers. Three or four
weeks will be required for the drying
unless they are changed to fresh
papers. II this is done they must
not be exposed tc the air q moment
or they will curl past recovery. If
perfectly dry they will remain
smooth.
The only fault OF ferns Ia their ten
dency to carl from changes of atmos-
phere. This may be remedicd, in q
great measure hs leas., by waxing
after they are dried. This is q process
of some difficulty. Lay the fern down
upon paper, rub bit Of yellow bees
wax over the face of q flat-ir0n Just
warm enough TO melt il; pass this
very quickly over the fern, Of course
the wax must be made 70 cover il.
If the iron ia too hot, or II the move
meut ia not sufficiently rapid, the
fern will adhere to the.iron. Methods
OF arrangement are 90 numerous and
familiar that it is hardly needful to
name them. A handful in a fern
glass is always desirable, and for those
who lack pictpres something very
rrstsy may be made 10 that shape
from ferns and autumn lesTes.-s

4 Hunters EntiI MiSfnIie.

Carbondale, April 23.-Robert and
Morris Andrews left their home in
Greenfield, OH Wednesday, to 90 into
the Salem Woods on hunting expedi-
tion. They hunted without food or
rest until Thursday night. On Friday
morning, Robert, hearing Il rattling
sound in the bushes, which he supposed
to be game, took up his rifle and blazed
away. On visiting TIE spot, he found
the dead body of Morris, the charge
having entered his head. Robert. in
his excitement, took the body on his
shoulder, and carried it home, and hid
1t in the barn under the hay. Inquiry
was made for Morris, and Robert de-
clared that he had not seen him since
they left home. The family noticed
his uneasiness, and believed some
trouble prayed upon his mind. A
neighbor's children, with Roberts two
small sisters, were playing in the barn
yesterday, and one of the little girls,
