Destruction OF City Trees.

Scientific gardeners have been giving
attention to the causes of the destruc-
tion OF city trees, and find that the
presence of large amount Of illumin-
ating gas in the soil Is the cause OF
the death of most of these shade-giy-
ers. A row Of beautiful trees in a city
street is one Of the most charming of
pictures, but it is one that we will
not long enjoy unless some measures
are taken to prevent the saturation OF
the soil with gas. 1t is the custom in
Europe, when a tree is killed By gas,
to exact from the company that they
replace Il tree as nearly as possible,
removing the contaminated earth and
filling in the space with that which is
perfectly adapted to the best health
and growth OF the tree. AS this is a
considerable item of expense, the gas
companies are extremely careful about
leakage and the management of their
pipes. In view Of the fact that The soil
Of our city street, whenever 1t is tuin-
ed up, seems laden with the odor of
gas, it becomes necessary to take some
extreme measures lest all of the shade
trees be destroyed.

ed in the engagements of the West Gulf

made commander In the regular navy
on March IL, 1868. While command
ing the Ossippee, going from the Mexi-
can coast to the north, an incident hap
pened which showed his bravery and
the regard he had for his men. A
sailor, in adjusting a sail, accidentally
slipped and fell overheard. Captain
OJCAB VIM was vi ucCh anu saw lhC
sailor fall. Immediately jumped in and
saved the man from drowning and
from the sharks. He has done duty at
the Boston navy-yard, and has been
assigned respectively to the Pointer.

A FRIENDS ADVICE.
And what it led TO.

many a younger woman. Ever since my

of Dr. Ayers Sarsaparilla each spring. and
am quite satisfied that / owe my good
health to this treatment. give this testi-
monia1 purely in the hope that it may
meet the eye of some poor suferer."-
MARY LISGAR-D, Woodstock, ont.
DR.. Ayers Sarsapariila has won Its way
TO every corner of the world by the praise
of its friends; those who have tried IL and
who know they were cured by the use of
the remedy. There is nothing so strong
as this personal testimony. II throws all
theories and fancies to the winds and
stands solidiy upon the rock OF expert
ence challenging every skeptic with a
positive ~ knoso." Ayers SarsapariIia
with its purifying and vitalizing action on
the blood Is a radical remedy for every
form Of disease that begins in tainted or
impure blood. Hence tumors, sores,
ulcers, boils, eruptions aud similar dis
eases yield promptly 20 this medicine.
Some cases are more stubborn than others,
but persistence with DIR. Ayers Sarsapa-
rilla usually results In q complete cure.
Mary Lingard began with bottle, and
went on 10 a course of Dr. Ayers Sarsapa-
rilla. when she was cured she realized
that a medicine that could cure disease
could also prevent II. SO she took a couple
Of bottles each spriug aud kept in perfect
health. There are thousands of similar
cases on record. Some OF these are

ly denuded Of blood. According to the
Spectator" to partly empty the brain
CT it's blood supply, to keep the head
cool, the blood sufficiently warm and to
send the blood rather to the lower ex-
tremities-this is the physical problem
Of the sleepless. 1t is interesting to
note that during sleep great number
of the bodily functions continue quite
normally without interfering with SLEEP
itself, and therefore sleep is not so
like death as some Of the poets have
imagined. Man asleep is not so pro-
foundry different from man awake, the
two chief points Of difference, how
ever, being these-a greater indrawing
OF oxygen and exhalation OF carbonic
acid and a complete nerve rest The
bedroom and the state of occupant las
Stunning the absence OF external noise)
are the chief factors in tho problem.
The sleeping room should be airy and
cool, never, for adult persons, reach
ing a higher temperature than GO de-
grees, though young children need
greater warmth. The head should
never be under the sheets. but exposed
and cool. The feet should be kept
warm by little extra clothing at the
foot. With heavy sleeper there
should be no thick curtain, but with
light sleeper curtains are essential, as
sunlight plays upon the optic nerve and
rouses that attention which il is the
one object OF the sleeper to keep in sus-
pended animation. The bed should
never be between fireplace and door, as
1t catches the draughts, and 1t is more
dangerous and more easy TO contract a
chill in bed than in the daytime. The
specially chilly period being about 3
