POISON INJTRES TREES.

Poison often cndangers the lives of the
plants. and other means must be adopted
to eXtcrmnatc the insects. Coal oil poured
over the afflicted plant is often good
method OF Kidding the shrub of its little
pests. Those which eat the foliage OF
plants and flowers are much easier gotten
rid OF than the worms bugs and gruhs which
destroy roots in the earth. To avoid these
much care is taken in preparing the ground
when ne " plants are set out.
None of the dreaded desIroyers have yet
arrived. They usually don't make their
about the middle of June Owing 10 the
early spring, however, they are looked
for this year before that time.
1t is impossible to say now what, if any
plaques will affect vegetatio this yeare
but whatever may come, preparations
are being made to give the visitors a.
warm reception. Indications are that
the coming season will not see plants and
flowers pest-ridden in this section Es-
pecially is this true with regard to shrubs
and flowers in the public gardens and
parks.
A series Of articles on this subject was
published in The Times last year, and
were read with great interest. The Times
was the first paper to announce the fact
that plants and trees were being destroyed
by these pests, and suggesting remedies
for eXterminating them.

CAUSED COMMENT.
This displacement of one Of the finest
statues ever constructed by Mr.. MacMon-
MES has caused much public comment.
When the figure of Fame" was first placed
on the Battle Monument at West Point it
received most favorable comment from
avery direction.
1t was reproduced, by request, in three
foot bronze statuettes, and these have been
scattered throughout the country in
schools and other public buildings.
Leading artists have declared that Mr.
NacMonnies' conception of Fame" was
most forcible, and suggestive in every way
of dauntlessness. The statue of victory"
which will soon be erected in it's place,
though dignified and poetical, does not
seem to many sculptors to lend the same
Inspiration or suggest the same force as
the figure il replaces. All attempts to get
statement from the architects as to why
the first figure was displaced have been
unsuccessful, and artists are puzzled to
know the motives bekndthe change.

The press has given ews indicating that
the great Methodist Episcopal church is
aIct,itating a more liberal and enlightened
policy toward its women. The Pennsyl-
yania conference, we are told. has voted to
accept women as lay delegates, and there
is reason To hope that at no distant day the
general conference-wbich once denied ad-
mission To Frances willard-win grant Il
place to women as voting delegates. This
Will, OF course. lead speedily to the ordina-
,ion Of women to the Methodist ministry
The importance OF giving to women their
rightful PLACE in the government Of the
church, and in its preaching and pastoral
service, can hardly be overestinIatcd.
Those who would relegate woman to
her sphere usually take the ground that
woman is, in her mental, moral and spirit
uaI constitution, substantially different from
man, aud that therefore she should not I'M
dertake the higher activities which he has
thus far reserved for himself.
II we assume this difference TO he a TACT,
then by that fact woman is unerringly sum
moued to take her place beside man in
all church councils and in the pulpit.
Whether the difference between manhood
and womanhood consists in the possession
of some quality or qualities by each which
the other does rot possess, or whether
the difference lies III the usual preponder-
ancc OF certain common qualities in the
one sex and OF certain other common quail
ncs in the other sex; still. the two re-
-uf1uts are substantially and. let Us trust,
.uCTadically different, SO that the ideal
humanity : not man and Is not woman-it
I both. Aud thus II Is that humanity
being made up OF two diverse halves,
needs its Interpreters. its teachers, its
ministers from both halves OF humanity,
else the Interpretation, the teacfins, the
religion must he warped, incomplete, in
effective, and NOT roundly human.
What j. taetrouble toiay with the creeds,
rom the tyranny of which su many Of the
churches are trying to free themselves?
Why. they were formulated by one-half
Of humanity for both halves. The woman
element was utterly Ignored. The mother
heart was not permitted to voice itself.
Relentless logic which, they say pre-
ponderates with man, was allowed full
sway. without 1t having been first de-
'erminei whether the premises upon which
hey built were In any sort OF harmony
With the thou ght or love a, the heart Of the
Universe, which, they say" next to its
Thronc ir the heart OF God himself. has its
highest seat IN the mother heartl
When women help to formulate the cx-
p-eSsionS OF religious faith which contrib

igious convictions OF those who subscribe
% them, then the church itself Will be hu-
manned. aud whether it be a man or a wo-
man who ministers from Your pulpit, the
genius OF the church, the spirit of the re-
.igion he or she teaches, will be broadly

A GOOD PRACTICE.
II You Want a Good Appetite and
Perfect Digestion.

After each meal dissolve one or two of
Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets in the mouth
and, mingiing with the food, they constitute
a perfect digestive, absolutely safe for the
most sensitive stomach.
They digest the food before it has time to
ferment, thus preventing the formation of
gas and keeping the blood pure and free
from the poisonous products of fermented,
half dlgested food.
Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets make the COM
plexion clear by keeping the blood pure
They increase flesh by digesting flesh
forming foods.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets is the only
remedy designed especially for the cure OF
stomach troubles and nothing else.
One disease, one remedy, the successful
physician of today is the specialist the sue
cessful medicine is the medicine prepared
especially for one disease.
A whole package taken at one time would
not hurt you. but would simply be a waste

Over six thousand men and women in the

GERMANY FEARS M'KINLEY.
Leading Organs Express the Hope
He VIII Not Be Elected.

Berlin, May 1s.-The approac ching Pres.
idential campaign In the United States ID
exciting unusual interest throughout Ger
many, particularly in the manufactur-
ing centers, in consequence of the prospect
that Mckinley will be successful iu securing
the nomination in the Republican conven-
ton, with more than even chances of his
election.
McKinley's success in the election next
fall is greatly dreaded here, as his election
would be regarded as au inevitable return
to extreme protection in the United
States.
In an article on the subject, the North
German Gazette ascribes MeKinley's re
newed popularity in the States to the
fact that the masses are realizing by ex-
perie nee that the Democratic party. during
its present administration OF the gov
ernmcnt, has been unable to achieve the
economic wonders which were so freely
promised in the last Presidential cam
paign.
the Berlin Post discusses at length the
possibilities Of the rea ction from the
present drift of McKinleyism in the United
States, especially if Mr.. Cleveland should
allow himself to be persuaded to accept tile
Democratic candidacy for third term.
