LAWN AND GARDEN.

Keep the hose and the lawn mower
going at this season if you want a fine
velvet carpet surrounding your flower
beds.
Save the weekly wash suds and all
dish water to put around your plants;
this is especially good for the hardy
shrubbery and the bedding plants.
During the hot weather water all
plants at night, so that they may get
the full benefit of the moisture before
the sun has an opportunity to evapor-
ate it.
To make the ANNALS and perennials
form bushy plants with plenty of
blooming branches, the seedlings
should be nipped off at the top before
much growth is made.
Put good seryiceable labels on all
new shrubs and plants as soon as they
are set out; it will be such satisfac-
ton in the future to be sure OF the COR
rect name Of each variety.
Good roses are as easily grown a.
good pansies; try setting out a fine Bed
of -bloomers early this monthf and
they will bloom all summer aftsE the
hybrid perpetuals have finished
Don't get discouraged over ths weels
at this season, This is the time mat
they make the strongest and 2most ag-
gravating growth, Conqher them
now and there will be very little diff
;o Al
later in the season.
Give the plants firm support as they
grow; it makes great deal of differ
ence, both in the earliness and in the
quality of bloom, whether plant is
supported or left to sway about the
ground at the mercy of the wind.
Have the verbenas and trailing plants
firmly pegged in position to form a
we'll rounded bed.

Columbus (Ga) Chronicle-A
noticeable feature Of the closing
exercises Of the public schools,
which took place at Springer
opera house was the absence OF
the boy graduate. The sight Of
twenty eight graduates in the class
and not a single boy should
arouse the minds OF parents as to
the future generation Of men. No
race can prosper where its boys
are allowed to grow up in idleness
and ignorance. Highly educated
men make abiding, service
able citizens; ignorance and idle
ness beget vice and crime. Many
parents think boy does not need
the attention and care OF a girl; in
fact it is often said: "Oh, he is
boy and can take care OF him
SELF The boy thus reared is
permitted to associate with the
girl whom you endeavored to
raise with care; where n the old
adage holds good civil com,
munications corrupt good man.
ners." And the girl is led astray
by the evil influences of the boy
who raised himself. From casual
observation it will be noticed that
the largest percentage OF the Grim.
inals of this or any other country
is composed of the uneducated
and idle class of boys and girls
The observation is worthy Of the
attention of parents, as the future
of the race depends largely upon
the boys of the present generation.
Many parents are brought to grie
in their old age because OF theil
liency to their boys OF a tender
age. See after your boys. ant
when they will have reached ma
turity, they will then be capable
of "taking care of themselves.

The porcelain sink or bath tub can
be cleaned by scrubbing with hot soda

stains.
Table salt, which is dried for the ia

The most useful pan that any
housewife can possess is a large deep
frying or brazing pan, with upright
sides and lid. If possible, this should
be of copper, and not less than four
and half to six inches deep and
twelve across. In such pan as this
nearly every cooking operation can be
carried on.
Very hard rust on tin utensils can
be removed by securing with paraffine
and sand. After this treatment good
boiling in soda water will be neces-
sary. To remove rust from steel, rub
plenty of oil on to the steel, and do
not wipe it off for three days. Then
polish with finely powdered unslacked
lime till all the rust disappears
A good toothwash can be made at
home for a trifling cost, as follows:
Dissolve two ounces Of borax in three
pints of boiling water; before quite
