The Deadly Nightshade.

The nightshade Hyoscyamus niger
is frequently found growing in great
profusion about old gardens and IN
plowed fields which are not cultivated
to any great extent after the early part
Of the season. In gardens and fields
where much hoeing is done it Is not
usually seen, and this fact suggests q
means Of practically exterminating II.
It is low-growing, branching plant OF
rapid growth. During late summer 1t
bears a profusion Of black berries
which are likely to attract the atten-
ton Of children, and very often we hear
Of death from their having eaten them.
The stramonium is weed found grow
ing almost everywhere at the north,
and presume at the south as we'll. 1t
is a plant having coarse, ovate leaves,
thick stalks, and large, tubular white
flowers borne on short peduncles In the
forks of the branches. These flowers
are produced throughout the season. 1t
is popularity known as "jimson weed
probably a corruption of jamestown
weed, as there is story extant in old
chronicles that several soldiers who had
been sent to help quell the Baker rebel
lion at jamestown were poisoned by
eating a salad made from young shoots
of this plant, which they found grow

from it because its foliage has such a

children are repealed by it, but because
of the poisonous qualities which it is
known to possess it should be promptly

relative of the tobacco plant, which is
not a very favorable recommendation
for the latter. Indeed, the narcotic

Topping Corn.

topping OOfh
The practice Of topping corn is quite
common in all parts of the country,
but a series Of tests made at the differ
emit experiment stations show that the
work is seldom profitable, and that the
loss to the corn is not made up by the
fodder secured. At the Mississippi
station the plan has been followed dur
ing three years. the tops being re-
moved after the corn had become we'll
glazed, and In every case the yield of
corn has shown a marked decrease,
for which the value Of the tops did not
compensate. The average loss In the
total feeding value has been more than
20 per cent, which Is somewhat larger
than the usual loss from such work In
the north. as the tops are worth less
here than there. The records Of seven
other stations where similar work has
been done show the average yield Of
the fields which were topped TO have
been 6S.3 bushels Per acre, while the
untouched check plots averaged IA

as graceful as a reed. Her dark hair
hung about her in lustrous coils, and
swept over the back of the bull. Her
robe was of cloth of gold. and deep
purple amethysts fastened its folds and
glistened from her black hair. Other
ornaments. she had none.
Closely following her was Nisus, the
king, surrounded by his guards. He,
like his daughter, was tall and dark,
with the same kind of hair, except that
one lock, falling over his shoulder,
shone purple, like the light from her
amethysts.
No wonder the daughter loved the
purple stone, even as Nisus treasured
the purple lock for it reflected the light

When Scylla reached home she went
up into the high tower Of the palace,
from which she could look down over
the whole city and beyond 1t. Outside
the walls she saw, as she had seen for
the last six months. the camp Of King
Minos Of Crete, and beyond the white
plain the ocean stretching out, out, to
liberty. For though she was princess.
Scylla felt like a bird in a golden cage
As she looked down over the camp

from one Of them. During the whole

enemy from the tower, and had learned
to distinguish the officers by name.
And he, who but now emerged from his
tent, was no other than King Minos
himself.
It was easy to know him from the

I'D only an QOuI, UuI
already the streets
were swarming with children, VINO nad
risen early to gather flowers to decorate
the temples. Soft laughter rose on the
fragrant air, and looks of trouble were
for the time cast aside.
Could one conceive of a more peace
full and contented people? Yet sincere
as their happiness was now, 1t was only
as a ray of broken light streaming
through asrift in Q dark clouds.
For Megara was besieged, and the
camp of the enemy lay just outside the
walls of the city. A truce had been de-
clared that the people might celebrate
their holy rites to the gods.
And SO, grateful for the lull OF tho
strife which for six months had borne
heavily upon them, the people threw
care to the winds and put all their
hearts and souls into the pure pleasure
Of this one blessed day. They needed
not that this reprieve was but the false
hope sent by cruel fate, and that the
darkest hour of their trial was COM
ing swiftly on silent wings.
The people now passed in throngs, all
gaily attired in their holiday clothes
which for months had been put aside.
It was time for the ceremony of sac
riflce, and the young maidens, dressed
in spotless white, with white flowers
entwined in their locks, and trailing
over their flowing robes. looked like
seraphs, with their young faces all
agloW with holy enthusiasm.
On q smooth, rolling plain, covered
with its natural carpet of green, and
dotted with flowers, which seemed like
. sprinkling of sunbeams, the altar had
been erected. The procession formed
slowly, the white-robed maidens COM
ing first, chanting, and swaying slight
~ to an easy dancing step. Then fol-
lowed the youths Of the kingdom, their
boyish voices taking up the strain OF
the maidens, swelling it louder and
rolling 1t over the long ranks.
When these had formed circle about
the altar, long avenue was left clear,
and then the glory Of the procession
came into view. Six tiny maidens.
