small garden where muskmelons were
growing in profusion.
The aphis. or plant louise, is another
enemy of the farmer, and may be said
to rank next to the tariff and the man
who wishes to explain same. Tobacco
is death to the plant louise. The louise
is bitterly opposed to the use OF tobacco
in any form and cannot see why tshould
be popular with anybody.
The asparagus beetle is another In
sect that seems to be getting quite a
hold upon the American people. Kero-
sene emulsions will work well on these
bugs and break down their constl-
buttons. The bean weevil and
pea weevil give the gardener
much trouble, and especially In
fields where the canned baked
bean is maturing. Where the weevil has
gained ground In Massachusetts the
cans which used to attain an average
weight of four pounds now rarely
weight over two pounds.

simnla Dict In Obesity.

The Journal dc III SGnte attributes TO
a medical officer OF the French army the
latest "cure" for obesity. which Is
strangely simple In It's carrying out.
The form Of diet was simply restric-
ton TO one dish at each meal. IRE
spectiye of what that dish might be,
and no matter whether the quantity
consumed was greater or smaller, 1t was
made 70 satisfy the desire for food
to the full az each meal. No supple
mentary dishes, such as soups, des-
serts or condiments were allowed;
one single dish and that taken
plain, was found to satisfy the appe-
lite much sooner than variety OF
dishes, even IL the quantity was appa-
rently smaller and on an almost ao-
stemlous scale. This regimen was en-
ployed also In the case Of lady whose
embonpoint threatened too rapid In
crease. with good results and without
any discomfort 10 the observance OF the
restrictions. In fact, in one or :wo In
stances the reduction of corpulence has
seemed TO go on TOO rapidly aud IL has
been deemed best to take means for re-
storation, in a measure, Of that which
has been lost. Under this system, as
under most others, adds Popular Science

THE DACING EGG.
One OF tho Favorite Feats Practiced by
the Japanese Conjurers.

the Japanese ConJurers.
Place a hard boiled egg upon the
upon the under side of smooth, but
dull-not.: polished-tray. More the
tray around and around horizontally,
gradually increasing in speed. The
egg, resting in the middle Of the tray,
is carried around by the movement,
and gradually begins to revolve on It's
own axis, faster and faster, till at last
it is seen to rise on end and spin away
exactly as top would do.
In all experiments involving egg
balancing you will find 1t ma
terial aid to success to keep the
egg upright in the saucepan while
