SHE WILL DUST.--He had back
load of feather busters as he rang the
door bell on Montcalm street yester-
day, and when a woman opened the
door about two inches and said that
nothing was wanted, he inquired:
MADAM, will you kindly inform Inc
who lives next door?"
"Next door?" she queried, coming
out on the step. "Why, it's a new
family, and I don't remember the
name."
"Lady puts on good deal of style,
doesn't she ?"
"Rather."
"I thought so. That's the way with
those sort of people they put it all on
their backs. I asked her if she didn't
want duster to dust off her uphol-
stored furniture and brick -a-brack, and
she slammed the door in my face.
She didn't have any to dust, you see.
People who have plush furniture and
articles of virtue and taste always
want my goods. Pleasant day, mad
am"
"Y-e.s. What did you say the price
was ?"
"Seventy-fve cents, madam, and the
woman next door is peering through
the parlor blinds at US"
"Is she? Well, I'll take one, and if
there should be any other invention
to dust brick "a brack and oil paintings
you might call around. You may also
bring me box of polish for my silver
ware. ."-Detroit Free Press.

TRANSATLANTIC.

1t is not natures design that a tree
should be transplanted the seed is
sown, the tree springs up and there it
stands until age and decay brings it to
the ground. The seeds are carried
from place to place by the streams,
the birds, and animals, and the tree is
soon ready to do its share toward per-
petuating its species.
Man is not satisfied with this slow
and uncertain method of distribution.
By care and protection he propagates
many plants where only few, if any,
would naturally grow. Then to dis
tribute the plants where he chooses to
have them, he resorts to the process
of transplanting, and it is only sur
prising that it can be carried on so
successfully under all circumstances as
it is.
A tree or shrub, to be, successfully
transplanted, must undergo certain
amount of preparation in the nursery
or greenhouse. In nature the roots OF
a tree continue pushing outwards in
search of food and moisture and be-
come after few years very long and
widely extended, with the young or
feeding roots at the extremities, so far
away from the tree and so twisted
among the stones in the soil and
among the roots of other trees, that it
is not possible to get them, and when
the tree is dug nothing but stiff stubs,
bare of fibres, are presented. A tree
in this condition has little chance OF
living, for the fine fibrous feeding roots
are very necessary. They are obtain
ed in the nursery by frequent removals
or root-prunings.
When root is cut off it begins i'm
mediately to heal by forming granula-
tions between the bark and wood ;
from these granulations spring numer-
Gus fine roots. In four or five years
the stronger ones of these push off away
from the tree, and must be again cut
by pruning or transplauting to keep
them within bounds. If the trees are
carefully dug two or three years after
this root pruning process, it will be
seen that all the fibrous roots will be
obtained as they 40 not extend far
from the tree. Then with proper care
in after transplating, success is GER
tain. With more frequent transplant
ing and root-pruning, the fbres will
be so numerous and closely packed
that the soil will be retained among
them and the tree may be removed
with heavy ball Of earth attached to
the roots. This gives them protection
from the action of the sun and drying
winds, and makes success more GER
tain than with such care as trees
usually receive. A tree or shrub in
this condition is much like plant
taken from a pot where it has been
growing.

HOW To CHECK A BLEEDING WOUND.

1t frequently happens that an acci-
dent takes place when medical help
cannot be summoned Immediately, and
if one knows what to do life may be
saved, or at least the loss of much
blood.
One may tell by the way the blood
flows, whether or not an artery has
been severed. If there is a steady
flow only vein has been cut; if the
blood comes in spurts with the beating
of the heart, then more serious case
is at hand, an artery has been severed.
In case of this kind prompt treat
ment should be used.
If the wound is on an arm or leg,
the suppressing of the flow of blood is
not so difficult, as tight bandage may
easily be placed here; put the bandage
or cloth, handkerchief, or whatever
you may have at hand between the
wound and the heart; that is, if the
wound is not below the knee, tie the
bandage tight above the wound toward
the knee, then insert a stick between
the wound and the bandage and twist
the bandage tight until a noticeable
check of the flowing blood has been
produced.
If the wound happens to be in a
place where such device may not be
resorted to, then press about the wound
the fingers, until you touch a place
which seems to check the flow Of blood,
then keep up this pressure until help
can be secured and the severed artery
tied.
For superficial wounds that bleed in
more places than one, or in one place
steadily, lint and cold water will be
found helpful if the wound is bruised
and lacerated, then drip ice water into
it and apply lint. We once stopped
the bleeding of d serious wound with
nothing but common flour; this was
applied steadily for good while at
first the bleeding was so rapid that it
soaked the -four up faster than we
could apply it, but a persistent appli-
cation of the same was finally success
full, and as it was the only thing at
hand and seven miles from doctor, it
was worth-well, III not try to say
how much.
Presence of mind is the next best
thing to absence of body in time OF
any emergency, and it is not we'll to
allow ones self to faint at the sight OF
blood, or to be appalled, at the sig bit OF
a pale face. Act at once, and perhaps
you may save life, quite as truly as
though you rescued drowning man
from a watery grave, or stopped a
runaway horse.-Rose Seelye Miller in

ENFORCING THE LAW.

A man with his face bandaged up,
walking on crutches, limped into the
Office of a justice of the peace in the
Red Gulch, Arizona, last week, and
exclaimed:
"Do you know Two-fingered Jim
my?"
"Yup," responded the justice.
"Well, want a warrant for his ar
arrest" continued the lame man ex-
citedly.
"What for ?" demanded the justice.
"Assaut and battery with intent to
kill"
"What did he do?"
"He hit me on the side of the head
and knocked me down." =.
"Well there amt no law agin it,
explained the justice.
"He jumped on me three or four
times when I was down and broke two
ribs"
"Can't arrest him for that, young
fellow. That's the custom of the
town."
"He knocked three or four teeth
down nv throat and stabbed me six
times with dirk"
"Sorry for ye, young feller, but
faint worth while arrestin' him for
that"
'.Then he stole my boss and"
"Eh? What's that. Stole a hoss
did he? Why did't you say SO before ?"
and the justice jumped excitedly from
his chair and began to buckle on belt
full of knives and pistols. "Say,
Jim," he called to the sheriff who was
standing near, "jest you sling rope
over tree an I'll call up the Peace
and Order society, an We'll have him
strung up inside O. thirty minutes.
Stole your hoss, did he? Well the
law must be enforced"
