ST. PAUL'S CHOIR.
Appeared Yesterday for the First Time as a
 Xested OrcanIzatinn.


 The mixed choir of St. Paul's P. D.. church made it's first appearance in surplices yesterday. Previous to the reopening of the church this fall the choir was accommodated in the gallery beside the organ. It was, however, deemed more advisable to have them in the chancel and during the summer months alterations and arrangements for this end were carried out. During the past two months the choir has oc- cupied seats in the chancel, but there were neither professional nor recession al hymns until yesterday, when the choir appeared in their surplice robes, which are in the main similar to those worn by the choir of St. Johns P. E. church.
 The congregation was much pleased with the new form yesterday and ex- poets great things from it's choir (of which it is justly prouD when the new chancel organ which is building has been put in place.

FLOWERS AND FANCIEs.

Last year when all the grass was wet
With summer rains and showes,
| made a little bed, and set
Therein two simple flowers.
One was morning glory far
With wreaths Of rosy bloom
The other was violet, dear
With its breath of sweet perfume.
The morning glory's glowing caps
Soon wreathed the porch caves;
But the violet hid no sky. blue eyes
Beneath. it's clustering leaves.
To-day, the vine with its rosy sheen
Brown rcre and withered lies;
While thro' the violets leave Of green
Peep out its sweet blue eyes.
| stoop. and gather them one by one,
Each chalice still brimmed with the
morning dew;
The first sweet flowers my plant has
borne,
And set kiss in each cap for you.
For / make of the blossoms a carrier dove
And whisper low in each fragrant ear
A message Of hope, and faith, and love,
That none but your heart and the
flower may hear.
What was the message? The flower must
tell
With their fragrant breath and eyes
of blue;
But l think YOU can guess-nay, you
know full we'll
The secret my hearts holding for you.
For you. tho perchance you will never
be told
BY lips Of coral and twilight eyes,
Till we meet on the pavement of shining
gold,
And greet each other in Paradise.

PLANT PINEAPPLES.

Pineapple culture has proven all unqualified success in Florida. The plant bears fruit within two years from the time of planting, requires but litte culture and is sure producer for three years, after which time the fruit becomes small and unmarketable Three to four hundred dollars per acre is what the Florida planter now clears from pine apple culture; iu Arizona 1t would amount tD at least eight hundred dollars per acre. Experi- ments made, show positively that the growing of pine apples here is sure to meet with success and there can be no question as to the inn mense profits which it's cultivation will bring. After planting the plants or "suckers" they must be shaded during midsummer and irrigated at the top. That is to say the plants must receive their SUD- ply of water from the center, where the leaves form funnel-shaped cone. The pineapple is quite q rapid grower and with a little care is sure and profitable producer
 The fumes for irrigating the plants could be built at a small expe se and constructed so as to readily moved. The necessary shade for the plants can be found in any orchard, by planting the pineap- pies between trees already making 8 good growth. The pineapple is not bothered with any insect pests and its presence will not interfere vita the growing of either the citus or deciduous fruits The soil fertile and warm, the application of water at needed times, thorough cultivation immediately after water Ing and the success of your pine applery" is assured The SEN TINEL has frequently urged the planting of this luscious and valu able fruit and is pleased to knoH that a careful and systematic horticulturlst will give the subject his attention this year and Yuma County will soon be supplying not only the Silver bound Westerners but also the "gold-bugged" people of the East with juicy, fragrant and appetizing pineapples.

Tossed on the FOaming Pillows

You may never have been, but if you cross the Atlantic, no matter how smooth the watery expanse, without sea sickness you are-well, lucky voyager, that is all. Old tars who have spent their lives on the ocean waves, who were almost born, so to speak, with their "sea legs on" suffer now and then from sea sickness in very tempestuous weather. Sea cap tains, tourists, commercial travellers and yatchsmen say that there is no finer safeguard against nausea than Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, and it has been equally reliable as il preven- tive by. invalids who travel by steam boat and railroad, and who sometimes su-ler as much in those conveyances as ocean travellers do in steamships. Billionsness, constipation, sick head ache and dis orders of the stomach caused by oppressive climatic in- hnences or unwholesome or unac- customed fool or water, always yield to the Bitters speedily. This popular medicine also remedies, rheumatic, kidney and nervous disorders, and the infrmities incident to increasing years.

More

Curative power is contained in Hoods Sarsaparilla than in any other similar preparation. It costs the proprietor and manufacturer more. It costs the jobber more and it is worth more to the consumer. More skill is required in it's preparation and it combines more remedial qualities then any other medicine. Consequently it has a record of more cures and it's sales are more than those of any other pre- paration. Hoods Sarsaparilla is the best medicine to buy because it is an
 honest medicine and thousands of testimonials prove that 1t does ac. .tually and permanently cure disease.
