It is well known that the celery plant
delights in rich and moist soil, and
those who have the opportunity to use
liquid manure in the cultivation of this
plant have a great advantage over 9TH
ers. In addition to this. some cultivat-
ors who grow the celery for market are
introducing water artificially, and find
it to be profitable practice. In this
connection Meehan's Monthly cites a
grower in Allegheny City, Pa, who has
a supply pipe from one of the city water
mains 50 arranged that at the end
where the flow commences guano or
some other artificial fertilizer can be
placed in the water pipes He can get

SUMMER SONG.

Sing me song Of the summer time.
OF the fire in the sorrel and ruby clover,
Where the garrulous bobolinks Tilt and chime
Over and over.
Sing me song of the strawberry bent,
OF the black cap hiding the heap Of stones,
OF the milkweed drowsy with sultry scent
Where the bee drones.
Sing me a song of the spring head still,
OF the dewy fern in the solitude,
OF the hermit thrush and the whippoorwill
Haunting the wood.
Sing me song Of the cleaning scythe,
OF the scented hay in the buried vain.
OF the mowers whistling bright and blithe
In the sunny rain.
Sing me song of the ounce and the gage,
OF the apricot by the orchard wall,
Where bends my love Armitage,
Gathering the fruit of the windfall.
Sing me a song of the rustling, slow
Sway of the wheat as the winds Groom,
OF the golden disk and the dreaming glow
OF the harvest moon.

the old Choc,aw claim which attracted
great attention five or six years ago, By
tho hearing now in proSrcs, in tho SUI

rcadjustment OF the cIaima OF certain
attorneys.
The case goes back for many years.
II was originated through the ins,ru-
mentality OF the lato General Albert
Pike, and was based upon claim for
lands taken from the Choctaw Indians,
bu, it was finally settled in 1859 by tho
payment OF about $, 100000 awarded by
Judgment in tho supreme court.
While tho mattcr'w was pending in tho
courts and in Congress number OF
attorneys and agents became Interested
in it. among thcn being one Henry L.
Mckee, who held contract Tor 80 per
cent OF the Judgment, whatever it might
be. After tho Choctaw claim was al
lowed. other attorneys applied to the
courts OF the District OF Columbia for IN
injunction, which was granted, to pre-
vent Mckee collecting tho entire
amount from tho treasury. There was
an informally in tho writ served upon
him, however, and hc collected tho
money called for by his contract,
amounting to about 100000. aud left

|, Mr.. Gillian knows what severe work
means.
The nervous strain OF HE responsible
position has at times brought him near
10 prostration and the giving Up OF his
work. He says in 4 letter dated New
York, Nov. -, 1894:
mo tonic that have ever taken has
done mo so much good as Paines Celery
Compound. When / am run down or
exhausted after particularly eHacting
work on cartoons and in other artistic
occupations, have found n dose OF the
compound exceedingly beneficial as a
restorative ior the nerves"
The racing speed of the marvellous
new processes for swiftly carrying out
mems ideas is taxing to their utmost the
nervous 6ysicms OF countless men and
women.
4 cry OF protest is going up all over
the country from medical men against
the suicidal waste OF nerve force. Preach
ers, editors, lawyers, oven doctors them
selves, from their daily round OF hard,
anxious work-every brain worker, in

his nervous vitality. must take alarm at
the frat sign OF brain..ire, pressure,
