WORDS OF WISDOM.

The secret of success is constancy OF
purpose.
He that may hinder mischief, yet per-
mits it, is an accessory.

cannot find them, creates them.
The usual fortune of complaint is to
excite contempt more than pity.

Good actions crown themselves with
lasting days; who deserves we'll, needs
no. another's praise.
That which makes people dissatisfied
with their condition is the chimerical
idea they form of the happiness of others.
A great deal of knowledge, which Is
not capable of making a man wise, has a
natural tendency to make him yain and
arrogant.
Common sense is, of all kinds, the
most uncommon. 1t implies gaad juig-
ment, sound discretion and true and
practical wisdom applied to com non life.

Shade Around Houses.

Neither fruit nor ornamental frees
should be grown so that their shade falls
at all times on the house, shutting out
the sunlight. 1t does not matter so much
while the trees are small, but as they
grow large they render tho living-rooms
damp and uuwholesome. The tendency
of vines especially to bury houses neal
which they grow in their shade needs to
be guarded against. If allowed to re.
main they should be thoroughly pruned

To Wipe Out the Chineh Ruy.


Enthusiastic entomologists believe that
the devastation of the farmers crops py
the chinch bug will be stopped forever.
The bug is to be e1.erminated by the
spreading among the species of a deadly
infectious disease. Within four DAYS of
infection the bug ceaseJ from it, work Of
destruction, and at the end of eight DAYS
lies cold in death. Professor +. II.
Snow, of Lawrence, Fan, who has long
been experimenting with this mode of ex.
terminating chinch bugs, will shortly
write an exhaustive report on tho subject.
He says:
Gas long ago as 1885 it wa observed
that chinch bugs occasionally disappeared
from infected regions in a most u.ysterl-
Gus manner. Careful search would re-
veal that on the ground myriads of bu IS
lay dead. DR.. Henry d. Slimet, an Gu
toTologist of excel INT reputv, called
attention in 1865 to such a disappear
ance as [ have described. He declared
1t as his opinion that this marvellous dis
appearance was due t. the existence Of
an epidemic disease among this bugs,
comparing this disease with thu cholera
among human beings. Professor S. A.
Forbes, State Eutomologist of Illinois, in
1882 began his observations upoi the
bodies of chineh bugs taken froy the
regions where one of these mar1sd, dis.
appearance had occurred, and SOON an-
nounced his discovery of a bacterial Or
gan!sm, undoubtedly the usual agelcy ip
the production of an epidemic SIMON ,
chinch bugs. The disease prorri to be
one of the fungus aft %sctions, the 'esult Of
the growth within and on the bag of a
parasitic microscopic plant, ap>idis. 1t
was found that healthy, living hugs when
placed in the jar with the aags from
Morris County were sickened. and killed.
1t soon appeared to ME that The disease
could be successfully conmu ltcsted from
diseased to healthy Bugs. :3ield expert
menting in 1891 was c~oriucted on a
large scale. During the sHas0n Infection

farmers, chiefly in Kansa>. | received
