Now to my mind the dress. not of the time of
William, the Conqueror, or of the seventeenth
century, but of just one hundred years ago. was
the most suitable and most manly that was ever
worn by the male population of these islands. BY
reverting to it we should get rid of two incon
venient and ugly portions of our present attire
namely the cylindrical hat and the almost
equally cylindrical trouser The man of to day
is too cylindrical altogether to be a satisfac-
tory object tn himself or to artists. That a
hat ito say nothing of its shape) should be
made OF a delicate material, which requires to
be carefully protected from the weather and
ironed and brushed if rained upon, is clearly ri
diculous; that mans legs, in this moist and
muddy climate, should be clothed in tubes of
cloth which reach to his heels and form ad
mirable conductors Of mud and dirt both inside
and outside, is equally So BY simply going
back to the conical felt mot beaver hat and the
breeches and boots of our great grand fathers
we should free ourselves at of this incon-
venieEre And their capped frock-coat for riding
and walking-why not that too2 1t saved the
shoulders from wet and was warm and sensi-
bic garment in every way

he felt secure from the indignation of his
ground-down subjects. Here 'Bomba" king
Ferdinand III entertained Plus X when the lat
ter ran away from Rome in l84o 80; and here,
in 1889 "Bomba' died, detested by his people,

l''Bomba') whom Whittier so scathingly refers
in his grand though short poem entitled In
Memory of Joseph Surge Surge was an EN-
inent Quaker philanthropist of Birmingham,
England, who died in his simple home in that
city on the same day, in 1889, that "Bomba'
died amid the splendid surroundings of the pal
at Caserta. 1t is the custom for all the
courts of Europe to appoint so many days for
mourning a departed brother monarch, but 1t
was thought that England would not go through
such mockery for the monster abhorred
while living" or who had been shown by Glad
stone and other English statesmen visiting Italy
to have been the most narrow and Nero like
king that had reigned in modern times. Never
theess, the usual mourning was decreed Unit
tier makes the good Surge stand out IN boIdest
relief by the vileness of the man who died
amidst the glorious scenery of Naples and its
surroundings. Very happy is the contrast of the
glandlose and beautiful nature OF the Neapol-
tan bay and that of the little river Edgebaston,
which trckles through Birmingham, where I'M
feigned sorrow is poured out for the good man
gone l cannot refrain from quoting the first
verses of that poem:
In the fair land oerwatcbed by Ischia's mountains
Across the charmed bay,
Whose blue keep with Capri silver fountains
Perpetual holiday,
"a king lies dead his wafer duly eaten
His gold bought masses given;
And Rome's great altar smokes with gums to sweeten
Her foulest gift to heaven.
"And while all Naples thrills with mute Thanksgiving
The court of England's Queen
For the dead monster abhorred while living
In mourning garb is
with a true sorrow God rebubes that feigning;
By lone Edgebaston's side
Stands great city in the skys sad reigning,
Bareheaded and wet eyed"

-Buckwheat is an excellent food

from an inverted sod, on which a

practical to raise a good crop OF
/ buckwheat on land that was too
wet to plow and sow early in the
season. 1t may often be raised to
advantage where corn or small
grain was drowned out. It is the
/ general custom to sow buckwheat
on poor land that is very poorly

land tbatfis TOO poor or 'too wet to
prepare for any other crop he is
! likely to sow backwheat on it. 1t
is the generahopinien that any kind
of soll, prepared in any sort of way,
will produce a paying crop Of buck
wheat. While it is. true that it will
grown on interior soil that is poorly
prepared, it is also true that more
and better, grain can be produced
on good land that is we'll prepared,
as for other grains. In this lati-
tude it is customary to sow buck
wheat from the 1st to the 10th OF
July. 1t will be ready to harvest
before the occurrence of frost, 1t
