Fiftieth Anniversary.

Next year, 1899, James Vick's Sons will
celebrate the fiftieth Anniversary of the
establishment of their flower and seed cat
alogue. James Wick was the first man III
America to publish an illustrated seed
catalogue. That first catalogue would
doubtless present a remarkable contrast
compared with the beautiful book OF l0o
pages presented to their patrons this
year. The present firm propose to pre-
sent to all their patrons of 1898 a hand
some .Nuvenir of their anniversary at the
opening of the year 1882. They offer
many bargains this season. Noticeable
is that of the Rambler roses.
Last season one of these plants sold for
fifty cents, but this year James \lck's
Sons of Rochester, n. Y, offer n each
Of the white, yellow and crimson Ramb-
lers for only forty tents. Nlck's Garden
and Floral Guide, an elegant work OF l2U
large pages, the best ever sent out by this
house, will be mailed free upon applica-
ton.

Professor KONG of Gottingen, in
a recent article on this subject, says
that at one time, while he was prac-
ticing medicine in Hanau, he suddenly
discovered that his bedroom was

could easily get rid Of the pests, and
proceeded to fumigate the apartment

fying, and when the room was opened
the dead bodies of various insects
we're seen strewn about the moor.
This incident led the professor to hope
that the same means would be effectuai
in destroying the infectious elements
of contagious diseases, and trial IN
private houses after scarlet fever or
measles, and in hospitals after erysip-
las or pyaemia, gave most satisfactory
results. Since adopting this method
he has never seen second case OF
contagious disease which could be at
tributed to infection remaining in the
room in which the patient had been
confined. The mode of procedure is
very simple. From one and half to
two ounces of corrosive sublimate are
put in plate over chatting dish, and
then the windows and doors of the
room are closed. At the expiration OF
three or four hours the windows are
opened and the apartment is
thoroughly aired. The person enter
| ing the room should take the precau-
ton to hold sponge or cloth over the
I mouth and nose in order not to in.
hale the vapor. The following dag
the windows are again closed, an6
some sulphur is burned in order te

which may linger about the furnitur.

then be again aired and cleaned, whel

FANNY Kemble Got Her washing.


It is related of Fanny Kemble that
she carried the tragic air Of the stage
into everyday affairs. While in Bos-
ton she stopped atthe fremont House.
and was accustomed to dine in her
rooms at O'Clock. On one occasion
the waiter brought her dinner ten
minutes too soon, and she made him
take it away until the hour had struck.
On another occasion she gave the SER
want some clothes for the laundry.
ssWhen can these be returned to
me, washed and ironed ?" she in
quired.
ssThe day after tomorrow, madam,
at noontime.
s'Be it So" was the dramatic reply;
Eat - on Wednesday.
But on the hour appointed the
clothes had not been returned. and at
ten minutes past noon a servant stood
before her in response to the short
summons of the bell.
"My clothes that we're to be re-
turned at IL today-bring them"
"But, madam, we have not been
able to get them ready, owing to 9
difficulty in the laundry. You shall
have them tomorrow.
'sBring them now-they were prom
ised today"
ST know it, madam, but they are
not ready

just as they are.
The servant went out, and few
moments later two men entered, bear
ing a tub full of soapsuds and wet
clothes, setsit on the floor and wen
