Ahout Hybrid Plants.

At the Nurserymens convention at De-
treit, Mich, Thos. Meehan. an authority
in such matters. said
A plant with comparatively sour fruit
has Seeding with sweet fruit. Insects
or the wind carry the pollen of the par
ent, or those like the parent. to the new
departure, and the next generation pro-
duces fruit neither sweet nor sour. The
adventurous younster is back again to-
ward the ranks. 1t Is next to impossible
to make any good use of hybridizing or
crossing improving fruits. In the origi-
nation Of new races it is, however, invalua-
ble There was time when people be-
lived hybrids were sterile. They saw
that the poor mule was sterile, and
jumped at the conclusion that that was a
law in all things. Truly some hybrids
are sterile. but then there are numerous
cases of sterility among individuals not
hybrids American horticulturists surely
know that hybrids are not necessaril.
sterile Rogers, of Salem. over a quar-
ter of century ago produced new race
of grapes between two species. We all
know this race is not sterile. The race
having been once established has given
them by natural variation a great ad-

A Warning

The modes of deaths approach are va
rious and statistics show cOncluSively that
more persons die from diseases of the
Throat and Lungs than any other. 1t is
probable that everyone, without exception,
receives vast numbers of Tubercle Germs
into the system and where these germs fall
velop, at first slowly and is shown by q
slight tickling sensation in the throat and if
allowed to continue their ravages they eX-
tend to the lungs producing Consumption
and to the head. causing CataTh. Now all
this is dangerous and if allowed to proceed
will in time cause death. At the onset you
must act with promptness: allowing cold
to 60 without attention is dangerous and
may lose you your life. AS soon as you
feel that something is wrong with, your
Throat, Lungs or NoStrils, obtain bottle
of Boschees German Syrup. 1t will give
you immediate relief.

The Russet Leather Shoe.

The russell leather shoe is frankly con-
fessed by certain literary and common
sense dude to be really the lazy or the
economical mans shoe. Its chief merit
lies in the fact that it does not need to
be blackened Or busted. 1t is the expe-
rience of gentlemen who are sensitive
about their foot wear that a shoe ought
to be polished about as often as clearly
man washes his hands. The patent pol
ished shoe is objected to on the ground
that it has become greatly cheapened,
and, like the Prince Albert coat, has been
driven out of fashions realm, because
the toughs have adopted it. Besides, in
hot weather, the patent leather shoe is
very heating, so the russell leather shoes
finds favor in the young mems eyes.
But if GOODNESS and economy are what
are desired. why not go farther east and
get those wonderful shoes that the Chi
nese make with braided straw? They
are nearly the same color, are lighter and
cooler, while they are also far more
unique. New York Evening Sun.

It is frame building. 10 by 10 feet. 3
feet from floor to ceiling. The door is In
the south and double window In the
north. The studding in both ends are
sided up inside and out with ship Tapped
lumber and the space between and that
above the ceiling are packed with chaff or
sawdust to the depth of or 9 inches.
The sides are made double Of lumber
8 inches wide. The lower inside board
being sawed so as to fit between the stud
dings, Of which there are three in each
side, is hinged to the floor and falls out
wards. the ends being sawed on inter
on each side of the studding thus making
q reasonably tight joint when the board
is raised; the next board Is nailed solidly
the whole length; the next one sawed as
before and hinged to the top of the second
board and alternately to the top. The
outside boards are left the entire length
and are put on the reverse of the inner
ones. the upper board being first nailed
on, the next one hinged to its lower edge
and so on, or two inch strip could be
nailed on with it's lower edge inches
below the plate. and the second board
hinged to it's lower edge and strip cut
to fit between it's upper edge and the COR
nice board hinged to it's upper edge.

from A the pressure is relieved and the skin
resumes it's natural condition. The ventouse

may be mani ulated to any extent, and in

than can be done by the hand. The
proper amount of pressure to be applied
varies in different cases, but the av-

inches high, or two-thirds of perfect
vacuum. A pressure gauge is unnecessary,
as one soon learns by simple observation the
proper amount of pressure to apply. The
invention is certainly an ingenious one, and
may prove to be of great usefulness in cases
where vigorous manipulation of the skin is
indicated

A Living Vase.

The process of ornamenting vases with
living green is by no means new; but as
very many of our readers may not know
how it is done. we give the representation
Of living vase. with directions for du-
plicating it, that appeared recently in The
Southern Cultivator.
Any sort of vase may be employed, but
those of unglazed terra Gotta are prefer
able, being porous. In such vessels the
water with which the vase is filed perco
lates constantly through the sides and
moistens the plants which are fixed on it's
surface. This kind of vase is, however,
not indispensable. for we can ornament
all kinds, whether in glass or metal. In
the latter case it is necessary to prepare
the surface so as to convert it into sort
of soil, which it really represents-an
operation which is easily managed by the
aid of piece of cloth or flannel which is
fixed by means of little pack thread or
thin iron or brass wire This being I'M
derstood, the means employed to grow
the seed must next be described.
If porous vase be used it is filled with
water or. better still, left in pail of wa
ter to soak After lapse of twenty four
hours, when the water has thoroughly
saturated the vase, it is laid on it's side
and the seed sprinkled slightly over the
surface, taking care to turn the vase in
different directions, in order that the
whole surface may be we'll covered with
seed. This operation terminated, the vase
is placed in a dark closet for some time,
and, if possible, under glass frame. so
as to preserve humidity and facilitate
termination. If non-porous vase. after
having we'll soaked the cloth which covers
it, the seed is sown upon it and the same
care is given as has already been indicated
When porous vase is used it should be
kept constantly full, as it is the water fiji
tering slowly through it that feeds the
plants which cover the sides. If that be
insufficient to insure vigorous growth.
the vase must be watered, taking care to
pour the water cautiously so as not to
detach the plants. If glazed or metal
vases be used, glass bottles, for instance,
they must be constantly watered the
water should be poured from the top over
all, so that. in descending. it vets all
parts of the cloth, which should always
be damp. Whenever the plants droop
they must be refreshed by watering them
carefully. The vase should stand In
