Mucilage has been found to be an
excellent remedy for burns. Apply it
to the burn and lay on any soft blank
paper. The mucilage soothes the
pain, while the paper excludes the
air. 5

obtained by mixing gum camphor and
powdered borax in equal parts and
scattering it around freely but in
small quantities which must not be
swept up unless replaced, until all
have disappeared.

small income on wool when they
might have made a much larger one
had they been more particular and
liberal in purchasing good rams. The
dltference in the use OF good or poor
rams. wool-grower declares, makes
wool growing either a losing or a
profitable business; for it takes no
more to keep sheep that will shear
seven pounds of wool than one that
only shears four pounds and if it
barely pays to grow the four-pound
fleece you have three pounds clear
profit on the seven pound fleece.

Japanese Notions.

The subtleties OF the Japanese mind
are illustrated in nothing more strk-
ing y than in their rules for the arrange
ment OF flowers. Not only does every
flower which bouquet or garland con-
tains symbolic something, but its posi-
ton with regard TO the other flowers is
significant. Mr.. Gender, in look on
Japanese flowers, gives some of these
singular rul s.
There are certain flowers, he says.
which bloom twice In the same year.
These are called by the Japanese re-
tuI mig flowers" Though these are
considered unsuitable for ordinary occa-
sions, they are especially appropriate
for farewell gatherings, since they ex-
press the hope OF safe return.
Flowers placed before sick persons In
Japan are always put together in rapid
and unlabored manner, intended TO 10
vigorous in style, TO suggest the idea OF
recovery and strength.
At the ceremony Of praying for tho
sick, flower compositions are, for the
same reason, full and gay, as well as
bod and powerful in style.
AS 1t is the east wind which brings
rain, floral arrangements used at the
time Of praying for rain have their prin-
cipal line pointing from right TO left, TO
suggest the east wind blowing.
reverse arrangement is resorted to
on occasions of prayer for fine weather,
