Do not plant flower seeds when the

the soil firmly over the seed.

There is conductor on the Euclid
avenue street car line who played a
clever trick on passenger the other
morning, which has probably taught
him to have his fare ready hereafter
when he boards car. The passen. ger
lives away out at the end of the line,
and was so puLcsual that he caught the
same car every morning.. About week
ago he ten6ered SO bill in payment
for his fare. The conductor did not
have so much money at the beginning
of his trip and told the passenger thas
he would pay the nickel out of his own
pocket aud be could return it the fol-
lowing morning. TIE next morning the
business man again presented $40 bill.
Again the conductor paid the iare for
him.
This occurred four mornings in sue,
cession. The fifth morning the same $40
bill came around, but the conductor was
prepared. He drew a heavy bag from
beneath the seat and handed it to the
passenger with the remark "Here's
your change, sir. It's all right. I've
counted IT," He had secured 1000 pen
MES the night before and kept twenty,
five OF them for the farce paid for the
business man. TIE bag wsAtained 975
copper coins. The passenger took the
bag and rang for the car to stop. HI
