Natural Soap.

Harper's Bazaar.
"In the climates where nature
works hardest people work least
Such was the opinion ofan old travel
or Il Acquaintance.
"You don't know what / mean?
Well, I'll tell you. In tropical coun-
tries, where nature works day anu
night to produce everything that man
can use in quantities enough to sup
ply the whole world, the people are
almost too lazy to eat the fruits she
provides, and are quite too lazy to
keep themselves clean, though they
don't even have to make their own
soap.

Oh, no! They have only to put forth

Sapindus saponaria, bears a fruit the

Remove the Corn Tassels.

From Farm and Fireside.
The Ohio experiment station has
made some interesting experiments
showing the effect of removing tas-
sells from corn. They were made to
test the the Dry that if the tassels
were removed from corn before they
have produced pollen, pollen-bearing
being an exhaustive process, the
strength thus saved to the plant
would be returned to the ovaries
and a larger amount of grain be pro-
duced.
From each alternate row of a plot of
corn the tassels were removed as
soon as they appeared. Briefly, the
result of the experiment was that the
number of good ears and the weight
of merchantable corn were both q
little more than so per cent greater
on the rows frem which the tassels
were removed than on the others.
Here is an experiment which any
farmer can easily repeat for himself
and determine whether the work is
profitable or not.

The Neglect of the Groom.

Boston Journal.
A person about to be married has
sent in a complaint for public consid-
GRAFTON against the constant neglect
which the bridegroom receives from
the press, from the friends of the
contracting parties, and often from
their immediate families. All inter
est centers in the bride, whose dress
is described in voluminous detail,
whose boquet is not considered be-
meath mention, and whose face blush
Ing beneath her veil, is the most
pleasing attraction of the wedding.

ner. Sometimes there is considera-
tive shown to the sexton of the
church. But where is the groom?
There are columns of descriptions of
weddings in the daily press, and
in these columns the personality of
the groom is passed over without a
glimmer of OppOlogy. How does the
groom dress? What is his choice of
flower? Do his gloves fit? Are his
shoes OF patent leather? Nobody
knows these interesting details, al

A Mothers Love.

The member of the family who, if
any one, has to be stinted is the
mother. / have very rarely indeed
known a sick child to want tor any
thing within her means, even If she
has to go without necessaries for
herself. After the long illness of a
member of a poor household it is a
common thing for the mother to break
down from scanty feeding and anx-
ious watchin. One Monday morning,
in the depth of the late terrible win
ter, q thin, poorly clad little woman
came through a snow storm to an
East End work house to ask for TODD
for her children. Her husband was
lying i'll in the infirmary, and she had
five children to support by charing
and doing odd jobs.
The woman had been an out pa
tient at the hospital herself for
debility, and was taking tonic
medicine at the time. The relieving
officer vas kind and at once assisted
the family with food. Ten minutes
after the applicant had left the
relief offices l was fetched in haste to
see the poor woman, who had just
reached home with the badly needed
food. She had placed the bread and
meat on the table and fallen dead on
the bed
/ was surprised to see five chubby,
well-fed children standing by the
bed On which lay their dead mother
The story was a common one; the
food had all gone to the little ones;
the mother had sacrificed her life TO-
save theirs. We are familiar enoughs
with such things in East London.
l am not over-anxious to defend the
self-indulgent pauper male parent.
He Is too often careless enough of his
family, but of the mother l can, on
the whole, say nothing but good.
"a mother" says Coleridge, sis the
hottest thing alive, and 1 should in
dorse the sentiment even had I no
other experience wherewith to illus
trate it than that gleamen from my
East London parish work.-Nine-

WACO DAY, in answer to the ques-
ton, "Why did he intervene p,
answers it's own conundrum as fol-
lows:
1.-THE supreme court says, in refer
ence to Rogg's intervention in the
International case, that ''if every
allegation of the attorney general be
conceded to be true and the trial
court granted him all the relief pray
ed for, no interest of the public or
of the state would have been SUBJ
served" Two questions then arise:
"Was Attorney General Hogg so ig-
norant of law as not to recognize the
fact there was nothing in this matter
for the state?n or, Twas Attorney
General Hogg but using the states
name as a mark behind which to
hide while helping 10 hold the Inter
national in court that his Tyler
friends and supporters might be re-
tanned in Office with fat salaries?" At
every turn the attorney general, either
through ignorance or design, played
into the hands of GOuld's attorneys
and the Tyler milkmaids, and the
thing assumes a look that is suspic-
iOus, to say the least
