PRUNING TREES IN wISrrp

notwithstanding many sag that winter
pruning of trees is injurious, I contend
that 1T is not. If done when the wood
is not frozen, and the wounds (anv over

cemented over or even coated with
boiled hnseed oil. there is no dancer of
black spots or the fiat headed borer talk
ing advantage of it. The covering of
the wounds can be done a month after
the pruning, as by that time it will have
arled SO as to take the oil or cement the
better. L have already done some nrun-
ing this fall. There Is another advan-
tage In pruning now, where the rabbits
are plenty, rs the green brush will give
them something to bark, instead of their
attacking young trees, much to their In

need be no other tool needed than n

Starring 70 Death

For the first two days through which
a strong and healthy man is doomed TO
exist upon nothing his sufferinRs are,
perhaps, more acute than in the remain.
ing stages; he feels an inordinate, I'M
%spcakable craving at the stomach night
ana day. The mind runs upon beef and
other substances, but still In a great
measure the body retains its strength.
On the third and fourth days, but es.
peoially on the fourth, this incessant
craving gives place to a sinking and
weakness of the stomach, accompanied by
nausea. The unfortunate sufferer still
desires food, but with a loss of strength
he loses that eager craving which is felt
In the earlier stages. Should he chance
to obtain a morsel or two of food he
swallows 1t with wolfish avidity. but five
minutes afterward his sufferings are more
intense than ever. He feels as if he had
swallowed live lobster, which is claw.
ing and feeding upon the very foundation
Of his existence.
On the fifth day his cheeks suddenly
appear hollow and sunken, his BODY at
tenuated; his color is ashy pale and his
eyes wild, CLASSY and cannibal like. The
different parts of the system now war
with each other. The stomach calls upo
the legs to go in quest of food; the legs,
from weakness, refuse.
The sixth day brings with it increased
suffering, although the pangs of hunger
are lost in an o%verpowering languor and
sickness. The head becomes giddy; the
ghosts of well remembered dinners pass
IN hideous procession through the mind.
The seventh day comes, bringing in
creased lassitude and further prostration
OF strength. The arms hang lifelessly;
the legs drag heavily; the desire for food
still left to a degree, but it must be
brought, not sought.
The miserable remnant of life which
still hangs to the sufferer is a burden al
most too grievous to be borne, vet this
love of existence induces a de-
sire still to preserve it if it can be saved
without Il tax on bodily excrtion. The
mind wanders. At one moment he thinks
his wearied limbs cannot sustain him a
mile; the next he is endowed with natu-
raj strength, and if there be a certainty of
relief before him dashes brayely and
strongly forward, wondering whence pro-
seeds his new and sudden Impulse

A Boiling Lake.

There is a lake of boiling water in the
Island OF Dominica, lying in the mountains
behind Roseau, and in the valleys sur
rounding 1t are many solataras, or volcanic
sulphur vents. In fact the boiling lake
IS little BETTER than a crater filed with
scaldlng water constantly fed by mount
ain streams, aud through which the
pentup gases find vent and are rejected.
The temperature OF the water on the
margin of the lake ranges from $50 de-
grees to 100 degrees Fahrenheit. In the
middle, exactly over the gas vents, it is
believed to be about 300 degrees. Where
this action takes place, the water is said
to rise two, three, or even four feet above
the general surface level of the lake, the
cone often dividing so that the oriices
through which the gas escapes are legion
in number.
This violent disturbance over the gas
Jets causes a violent action over the whole
surface Of the lake, and though the cones
appear to be special vents, the sulphur
Gus vapors rise with equal density over
