FRUITS AND FLOWERS.

a German writer says the nutrition
of plants is diminished in constantly
moist atmosphere, because in such
case the plants cease to transpire. 1t
is by the stream OF Transportation that
the food materials from the soil are
brought to the plant, remaining be-
hind in the plant when the plant gives
off the water in vapor, and thereby
makes room for like quantity of new
food material from the soil. Expert
ments show that In very moist at
mosphere less of mineral matter is
brought into the plant from the soil,
but the formation of starch grains
from carbon dioxide and water is not
hindered.
Mrs. Allen, Germantown, says: Py-
rethrum powder, the insecticide most
used by housckeepers, is one of the best
to use with house plants. A very lit
tie of it i'll water and difused by an
atomizer rs recommended long time
ago by Professor Riley, is one of the
best ways for using it. Another way
is to wet the leaves OF the plant, and
blow the powder upon them from an
''insect gum" Out of doors, if used
dry, it should be in tho evening or
early in the morning, when the mois-
ture on the leaves from the dew will
cause it to stick. If in water little
glycerine or molasses or soap may be
put IN to make it stick. "This insec-
ticide is made from tho flowers of the
pyrethrum cinerariaefolium. These
are gathered before thoy are
quite open, and dried under cover and
without artificial heat. When dried
they are pulverized and the powder
sifted, then put into air.tight recep.
tacles. The powder will not injure
either the foliage or the flowers"
One of the best of the New England
peach farms is managed on the partly
turf system, strip of sod being left
about the trees, the space in the mid
die of the rows being cultivated. The
fertilizer is applied on the sod and
the grass is moved and left US a mulch.
The sod, it is said, helps protect the
roots from freezing and thawing, and
tho wood being of slower growth is
better matured.
The ideal location for an apple
orchard, Miss Cutler told the Boston
farmers at their recent meeting, is on
o hill. Tho advantage in this over u
plain being that the trees are more
open to the light md air, giving bet
ter color and flavor to the fruit, bet,
ter natural drainage and freedom from
frosts.
Whitewash or dusting with pow
dered lime when the limbs and twigs
are damp with fog, or after rain,
will destroy any moss that may be on
them.

FATE.

Two shall be born the whole wide world
apart
And speak in different tongues and havo no
thought
Each OF the others being, and no heed.
And these DER unknown sens to unknown
lands
Shall cross, escaping wreck. defylng death,
And all unconsciously shape every act
And bend each wandering step to this one
end,
That one day out of darkness they shall
meet
And read liie's meaning in each others eyes
And two shall walk some narrow way of life.
So nearly side by side that should one turn
Ever so little space to left or right,
They needs must stand acknowledged facs
to face,
And yet with wishful eyes that never meet,
With cropping hands that never clasp, and
lips
Calling in vain to ears that never hear,
They seek each other all their weary days,
And die unsatisfled; and this is Fate.

California Pearls.

Tho pearl fisheries of tho Gulf of
California have been enormously valu
able. In 1870 large number of
pearls were collected for n collar
This eventually came into tho posses
sion of the Queen of Spain, and is ono
OF the most valuable of the crown
jewels. A brown pearl worth $4,000,
black one valued ut 3l0,0 600 and au
exquisitely lustrous one which was
sold in Paris for nearly $4,000 have
been taken from these beds. Black
pearls are exceedingly popular in Eu
rope, and nearly all of this sort that
are found in California are sent over
to the European market. The Mexi-
can government controls tho fisheries,
and the business is put into the hands
of a San francisco company. About
four hundred men are employed, and
the oysters, after being lifted from
the rocks, are put into schooners and
taken to u place where there are in
spectors, under whose charge they are
opened. Pearl fishing is rather nm.
certain business, rs one may open
thousands Of oysters without finding
anything worth while; again, in few
moments, thousands of dollars may be

Toned man who wore the evercoat he

The owl Is said to be the wsest of birds
because he keeps both eyes and ears wide
open, says nothing and keeps up good deal
of thinking. When sciatica takes hold of a
man, he is wisest who says nothing but keeps
his eyes and ears open for the best remedy,
who thinks and knows 1t may result in
crippling, and who finds by trial that st.
Jacobs Oil is the best known remedy for its
treatment and permanent cure. 1t pene-
trates to the seat of the cxcruciating pain,
soothes ana cures it, and prevents what
sometimes happens-the use OF the surgeons 8
Knife to get rid OF the torment. The owl
thinks and then acts quickly, and the sciatica
sufferer should act promptly to arrest the
progress of the disease and to restore the
nerve by tho use of st. Jacobs OIL to its nat.
ural condition.

REMARKABLE RECOVERY
OF n Young Lady of Gasport, Now YORK,
from Anaemia.


From The Courier, Buffalo, ". Y.
Miss Lulu Stevens, daughter Of George
Stevens, the well-known blacksmith, OF Gas
port, Niagara, County, New York, has sur
prised her nelghbors considerably, by not
dying five months ago, when the physicians
said she could not live.
This was quite a remarkable case. The
young woman, who is very well known, on
account of her musical ability. had been a
very healthy girl. until about one year ago,
when she began to fail, and grew so pale
and apparently bloodsss and so weak that
after few months she was given up to die.
Last winter physician VINO was u visitor
at Gasport met Miss Stevens, and seeing her
emaciated condition, and hearing from the
local doctors that the disease was anaemia,
prevailed on the girls mother to make her
try DIR. Williams Pink Pills. Directly she
commenced the treatment she began to
mend, and now since February when she
decided to take them, she has become well
and strong and the picture Of good health.
The mother of the girl, Mrs. Stevens, says.
Every one in Gasport knows that Pink
Pills cured Lulu, and l feel very thankful
that we heard of them in time to save my
child's life."
DIR. Williams Pink Pills contain, in con-
densed form, all the elements necessary to
give new life and richness to the blood and
restore shattered nerves. They are also a
specific for troubles peculiar to females,
such rs suppressions, Irregularities and all
forms of weakness. They build up the blood,
and restore the glow OF health to pale and
sallow cheeks. In men they affect radical

The San Francisco call., 1897-07-25

Nav 8, 1869, a memorable expedition
sailed from San Francisco with twofold
object in view. The first was TO explore
the then comparatively unknown interior
of the vast country SO recently acquired
from Russia by Uncle Sam, not thirsting
after knowledge scientific OF the region
living north OF Mount ST. Eliza, but for the
pelts of the fur bearing animals roaming
through that vast stretch OF country.
Four wears previous the Western Union
Telegraph Company had sent an expedi-
tion to what was then Russian America to
survey a route for telegraph line, which,
having for its initial point New West
minister, B. c., stretched up through
British America, thence through Rus
sian America, by ca Bile across Bering
Straits to Kamchatka. from there to the
mouth of the Amoor River to connect
with line to be built by the Russian
Government to that point.
This aving been abandoned in 1867 as a
probable non paying investment owing TO
success of the Atlantic cable, the original
explorers returned to San Francisco in the
fall of that year. Like Others, his occupa-
tion being gone, the writer's thoughts
were directed to the possibilities lying in
the IuE tIdOO 1OI lAO Va
wealth.
This led to a meeting with the late John
Parrott and r. H. Waterman (familiarly
known to early residents as Bully Water
mani, who, quick 10 see the immense
profits to be made, the necessary capital
was at once subs cribed. trading goods pur-
chased. a stern wheel steamer to navigate
the Yukon built, and, finding in the brig
Commodore vessel that could comfort
ably carry the hull OF the steamer on deck,
she was chartered and. in command of
Captain Percival, sailed on the date above
men toned.
Our steamer was a stanch little vessel
of % tons burden, christened the Yukon,
and was expected to penetrate as far into
the interior as the short season would
allow by going up the river after which
she was named, distributing goods, estab-
fishing stations and bringing down the
furs to the main station at st. Michaels,
Norton Sound.
Sailing day arrived at last, bringing
with it an additional passenger in the per-
son of Louis B. Parrott. nephew OF John
Parrott, who joined US for the spice of
adventure the expedition promised to af-
ford.
The second object was the determining
of the exact position o; Fort Yukon, situ-
ated some 1900 miles up that river, and a
