The scotch ErangeIist.

The revival services at the First United

Scotch evangelist. MAN as dwelling

showed how man had, little by little, desc
Grated this dwelling place. The former race
of men were very beautiful. Now and again
we catch in some faces glimpses of what man
has been. Man left off worshiping God
and turned to idolatry. Then his heart be-
came habitation for the devil. Man can
not eject the devil by himself; he must ad-
nit Christ, who stands at the door Of the
heart knocking He alone has power TO ex-

STRAWBERRY SETTER.

The most desirable time to set is
when the soil is moist mot muddy and
the sky cloudy.
For setting plants W e use a tool
shaped something like an adj or grub
hoe. The blade is of steel ten inches
long and four inches wide. 1t is made
thin and curved inwards. At the top
is a hole for a handle, which is one foot
long. 1t may be made BY the local
blacksmith, and costs one dollar. We
call this tool a strawberry setter;' but
1t may be used in setting vegetable
plants or heeling in raspberry plants.
Grasping the setter in the right hand
the workmen strike the blade into the
soil about seven inches and then with.
draw IT.. AS the setter is withdrawn,
and before the soil rattlcs back into the
hole, a plant is inserted back OF the
setter. The soil is pushed up to and
around the plant by a forward move
ment OF the setter, and thus the work
Is accomplished.
Plants put out this way have the
roots set a little obliquely, but seem to
do as well as when put down straight.
The soil comes in close contact with the
roots, and there is no cavity left around
them. The earth is left loose, and not
packed hard as where a dibble or trowel
is used. Ono Of these tools will last a
lifetime, and we used to spoil two or
three trowels every year. The general
appearance Of this strawberry setter is
shown in illustration on this page.
Care should be taken that tho crown
Of the plant be put ever with the sur.
face. II below the surface the plants
will rot in a wet season; II above, they
will dry up in a dry season.-Popular

business in the United states with
great rap'dlty' An example OF this is
by the ~itinerant vendors OF
lowers, bananas, dates, suspendcrs and
other articles, who are especially
numerous around the City Hall Park
and the entrance to the bridge. They
are forbidden by law TO occupy ono
place for any length OF time, and the
approach OF a policeman always means
a general moving among the vendors,
most OF whom are Italians and Greeks,

No one would suppose that in such q

writes: II never would have believed
that the insects could appear in such
swarms. They literally obscured the

pain, the horses kicked and reared, but
