The Man Out Job.

The "Cat Hole" has long been a
favorite resort for male bathers in
this town. When studying physi-
ology at tschool many years ago, The
Man-out-of-a-Job learned that daily
baths were CONDUCIVE to health.
Boys from this town 60 to the "Cat
Hole" almost every evening to
bathe. So far so good. But no au-
thority on hygiene has yet averred
that the health will be improved
by accompanying the bath with an
uninterrupted volley Of profanity
and obscenity; nor has any writer Of
moral philosophy limited that the
morals would be improved thereby.
The parents Of those boys whose
oaths and obsene utterances can be
heard in town on a quiet evening
should give them a few lectures bas-
ed on morality, and if that does not
have the desired effect extract OF
peach tree bark should be admins
tered in broken doses until the pa
tient is entirely cured.
n
1t has, been brought to the at
tention of The Man-outofa.job that
small boys of this town, and young
men too, take advantage of the leis-
ure Of Sunday afternoon, and of the
comfort of groves near town to en-
gage in social game of cards.
Properly engaged III, a game Of
cards is pleasant means Of enter
tainment, but Sunday is not the
proper day for that kind Of amuse-
ment.
Y
Thc Man-out-ofa,iob notes with
concern the tendency of small boys
in this town to read what are known
as "difne novels" The thought OF
the books is poor, the plot improb.
able, the language rincouth and the
effect on the mind and habits per-
nicious. Boys, don't read them.
Parents, watch your boys.
The Manputofajob prognosti,
Gates that unless an epidemic ol
cleaning up yards, alleys and out;
buildings siexes this town, q great
deal Of sickness will prevail here
this summer.

accordance with these contracts line pips come over in the haItls of the great steamers, twenty-five punched together, ted with vege- table fler. and wrapped in moss. They are thus delivered to the florists and then transferred to the forcing house. In five or six weeks from the time when the neaningless-i looking pips have left their native German soil the exquisite spray of dropping white bells and the sheaf of green leaves is adorning the jacket of some young woman as she trips down Broadway.
 When the pips are first planted in sand they must be placed over steam pipes for the sake of the bottom heat, and kept continuously in a high tenn perature until the blossom is pretty well advanced. They are then removed from the pipes in order that the time Of blooming may be prolonged. They are ordinarily planted in rough, shall low pine boxes, and spray after spray is clipped off as it is needed for bou- quets, or roots and all are transferred in clumps for potting. The plants in the original pine boxes are much less attractive than the blossom when made into bouquet Many thou sands of these lilies are cultivated in the open air. They may be set out just as they arrive from Ger. many at almost any time of year, and they resist frost with perfect hardi. ness. The outdoor lilies bloom in the spring, and continue the season for the florists after the crop of the forcing houses has been exhausted When these outdoor bioomers are exhausted. the florists have another resource in reserve. Thousands of lily pips on ar- irving from Germany, are at once placed in cold storage, and kept there at a low temperature, for weeks or per haps for months. The development of the plants is thus arrested, and some weeks before the time when the out door boomers will have been exhaust ed, part of the pips on cold storage are brought forth and either forced in dsars or perm tied to develop normal mally in the open air. In this way the season is further extended.
 Florists find that the lily of the val ley is most difficult to manage for autumn dowering The period of de- velopment is then at least twenty days. and the flowers are upon the whole less satisfactory than in winter and spring.
 Beautiful as the flower is it is not ex- pensive. The pps may be brought at retail in November at from thirty to forty cents per dozen or aboutone dol lar and a half per hundred The price AI the rate to florists is such that there is a handsome profit in the plants when the cut flowers retail as low as five cents per spray. As each pip pro duces only one set of blossoms, and the percentage of loss is reasonably uni form florists know pretty well what to count on in forcing the lily of the val ley.-N. Y. Sun.

 Since the political agitations of lee and in 1885, which disturbed and dis eouraged the population, things have been going materially from bad to worse. We re occasionally called upon to listen to jercmiads about lee laudic starvation from those whose sentiment for the Icelanders is more active than their information is exact. and the English public has become sus@ spieious of the cries of ssWoif!n But the past season, with it's excellent weather and good supplies of food has not shown by any reaction against the draining away of the people
 Last summer no fewer than six hun. dred persons emigrated to America, bringing the population below that limit of seventy thousand to which it has already dwindled. The island now contains, it is believed, fewer in- habitants than it did in ls70. before the temporary rise in Icelandic pros perity The emierants are largely of the farm laborer class, aud there is a growing complaint that portions of the country are going out of cultiva- tion because there is no one to work on the land.
 eanada is beginning to attract the Icelanders to it's northern provinces, and during the last six months three or four Canadian agents have been visiting every township in the island, preaching the attrac- tions of the new country. The govern ment has even gone so far as to intro duce bill proposing to discourage emigration, or in any case to put a stop to the propaganda of these Canadian agents: but it is doubtful whether this measure will pass the aluhing, and nothing seems able to modify the dis taste which the Icelander -,has formed for his venerable but arid acres
