History of n Familiar Hymn.

When Bishop Heber's famous mis-
sionary hymn "From Greenland's Icy
Mountains" which he wrote in 1924
when in Ceylon, first reached this coun-
try, a lady in Charleston was much i'm
pressed with the beauty OF it, and " as
particularly anxious to find a tune suited
to it. She ransacked her music in vain,
and then CHANGING to remember that in
a bank down the street was clerk who
had considerable reputation as musical
genius, she sent her son with the hymn
to the clerk with the request that he
write tune to fit it. In just half an
hour the boy came back with the hymn,
and the melody thus dashed off in hot
haste is to-day sung all over the world,
and is inseparably connected with the
hymn: The young bank clerk was
Lowell Mason.

A Acale Remedy.

Mr.. NJ. Baldridge, OF Glendora, thinks
he has discovered a new remedy for the
scale bug. He uses starch made in a
large iron retert constructed for the pur.
pose. 1t is we'll known fact that the
black scale or any other variety of scale
once loosened from his hold cannot live.
the utility of the starch lies in this fact
As soon as the application dries il
breaks away from the twigs and leaves,
carrying the scale with it, rendering ii
entirely harmless. When the starch is
blown off the foliage the leaves look as
if they had been fresh polished.
