Culture of Crysanthemums

An experienced flower grower gives
the following advice through the Char
lesion News and Courier:
This is the time FOE people who want
to have 6oe chrysauthemums in the
autumn to begin to look after their
plants. OF course they ought to have
started some tiue ago, but then it is
most probable that most people who
have she modest little garden plot have
sot done SO. Bat eyec if the CT. ..Jsac
.hsmuns are still growing 10 little
clunps there is plenty Of time to obtain
good results. The frs. thing to do, Of
course, is to separate the plants aod the
second is ia plant !heu 10 rich soil al
the branches should be dipped of aud
20 new branches allowed to come.
Some people prefer to have a great
quantity of small flowers to one or two
great big ones. Those. however, "ho
Wish to obtain the dnest results in the
way of Individual flowers will 6od it the
best plan to keep the plant to one two

Chrysauthemums. unlike mos, plants,
do aos mind being moved at all. 10
deed they seem to like it. The reason
of this is that they are very rapiciols
feeders end soon exhaust the soil, AID
when moved have, as it were, fresh
meal set before them. A cbrysantbe-
nun cannot be too highly manured
but, Of course. where great deal OF
manue is used the plant must have e
great deal Of water also. Otherwise it
will burs up. Oae Of the most conve-
nieot aod efheacious ways Of maouriog
cbrysauthe nuns is by using manure
water. Thisis easily prepared. Moth
ing is needed but ao Gil barrel, half
barrel Of stable manure aud water. Put
the barre! far away from your house
and your neighbor's Pct the manure
in the barrel aad pour the water on it..
After standing a few days it sill be
ready for use. Make little cup-!ike
iodsn.atioo ia the earth around the
plant aod and pous full of manae va
se?. Oace fortnight ia enough. uatil
tie plants start to bud. AID theD in-

much as they will stand, but lessen the
quantity if they look at all badly. A
small quantity every day wheo the

the size Of the blooms wonderfully
There is cne thiog which is very ;m-

About Cotton Ties.

We notice that several Southern cot
too exchanges have passed resolutions
deoouuciog the cotsca tie trust for its
action in increasing the price Of ties
something like 100 per cent. This
position on the part Of the exchanges
indicates that they will not throw any
obstacles in the way Of farmers, and
the fight will be Of short duration.
Heavy wire is much cheaper than co.,
Ton ties; it will answer the purpose
just as satisfactorily, and under the
circumstances, we see 10 reason why
the matter should not be settled ln short
order.
AS we see it, the farmers will nos
only administer well-deserved cbastsc-
meDt, but also be the gamers both teai-
porarijy and permanently if they will
lust abandon the use Of fat ties a!sc-
other.-Yorkviile Enquirer.

To Cure Headaches.

GA hot bath, stroll in the fresh
air, shampooing the head in weak
soda.water, or timely nap in cool,
quiet room will sometimes stop a
nervous headache" )" writes DR.. B. F
Herrick in August Ladies' Home
Journal. "When overfatigued from
shopping or sightseeing a sponge
dipped in very hot water and pressed
repeatedly over the back Of the neck
between the ears will be found ex-
ceedingly refreshing, especially if
the face and temples are afterward
subjected to the same treatment
Neuralgia is caused not only by cold
air but by acidity of the stomach,
. starved nerves, imperfect teeth, or
By incidence combined with a too
generous diet. Heat is the best and
quickest cure for this distressing
pain. A hot fiat iron, passed rapidly
and deity over several folds Of fan.
mel laid on the affected spot, will
often give relief in less than ten
minutes, without the aid of medicine.
Hot lamentations are of equal value;
though when the skin is very tender
it is more advisable to use dry heat,
nothing being better for the purpose
than bags of heated salt, -four or
sand, which retain warmth for long
time. Cold water, applied by the
finger tips to the nerves in front of
the ear, has been known to dispel
neuralgia pains like magic. When
caused by acidity dose of charcoal
or soda will usually act as correct
i've. Sick headache is accompanied
by bilious symptoms, and attacks
usually come on when the person is
overtired or below par physically.
This is disease of the first half of
life, and often stops of it's own accord
after middle age. A careful diet is
imperative in every case, sweetmeats
and pastry being especially per-
nieious.
Eating heartily when very tired,
late dinners. eating irregularly, insuf-
fcient mastication or too much animal
food, especially in the spring or dur
ing the hot weather, are frequent
causes of Indigestion. causing head
aches by reflex action" +"

Her Parting Thrust.

In the course Of a call at a very jolly
place the other afternoon a girl was
inspired to relate a good story. 1t met
with such success that she was in
spired to tell another, and yet another,
all the other callers keeping up their
appreciation-all the other callers but
one, that Is to say. The exception was
a woman who looked as though she
hoped her rightly would be mistaken
for hauteur, and who was evidently OF
very conservative notions. With Wis
age grim and never a smile did she
listen TO the young woman's anec-
dotes, until 1t flashed through the lat
ter's mind hat she had somewhere
heard that among the antediluvian
races 1t wasn't considered good form
for a woman to tell good stories. At
last this woman rose to go. To every
body but the girl she bowed and said:
Very glad to have met you" To the
girl she observed, and in precisely the
one she would have complimented a
poodle for its parlor tricks: 1--WE en-
joyed your stories so much."-Nev

| must have worked two hours in the
debris. / do not know how many we
saved. A train was got together to
come to saltwater for help and l
came with it,"
Inhabitants Of the village felt no
alarm until half past 5 o'clock, when
heavy dun colored clouds gathered on
the western horizon and soon spread
over the sky, gradually growing
denser and darker, and %presaging a
tornado.
Great alarm prevailed shortly be-
fore the storm broke and refuge was
sought in cellars, wells, caves, or
other underground structures that
promised safety.
Trees were broken off short by the
force of the wind, which struck the
town full in the center, and In ten
minutes awful destruction had been
wrought. The largest brick walls
crumbled and the lighter frame struc-
lures were whiskcd away like SO much
straw. Many houses were carried for
blocks and dashed to the earth.
500 BUILDINGS WRECKED.
Five hundred buildings were
wrecked and when the storm had
passed about the only structures OF
any note left standing were the Cath
Ollie and Baptist churches Not a
dwelling house was left %uninjured.
A large iron bridge over Apple
river was blown into fragments and
the parts distributed along the banks
u half mile away.
Two large iron safes were caught
up and carried n distance Of a block.
One Of these weighed 5000 pounds.
Within a space of a few blocks, n
hundred bodies were counted. Legs
and arms were missing in many cases.
One body was found with the head
clipped off.
Not all who sought refuge in cellars
escaped. In some cases houses col.
lapsed, and those in the cellars we're
entombed. To add to the horror of
the situation, fires started by over
turned stoves, and many wounded,
unable to drag themselves out of dan
ger, died from burns.
A circus was in town and farmers
had gathered to see the show. A few
minutes before the storm struck,
many who had just come from the cir
Gus rushed to a brick building close at
hand. This building was destroyed.
Many are supposed to have persisted
there.
At the Nicollet hotel the guests
were at dinner. All sought the cellar.
So far as known, most of those in this
house were saved.
The storm first struck at a place
called Calash Bar, a short distance be-
low saltwater, and laid waste the en-
tire country from that point to New
Richmond.

We must o. again return To Philip

sation upon the strange temperance

upon was that he should be carefully
watched. and that they dispense with
his company rs soon as possible.
Krantz had Intercepted him as TO his
escape. and Schriften had informed
him. In his usual sneering hammer that
one OF the sweeps of the raft had been
allowed to get adrift during the scuf-
he, and that he had floated on It until
he had gained n small island: that ON
seeing the peroqua. he had once more
launched It, and supported himself by
II, until he was perceived and picked
up. AS there was nothing impossible,
although much Of the improbable. In
this account. Krantz asked no more
questions. The next morning. the wind
having abated. they launched the Pc
roqua, and made sail for the island
Of Ternate.
II was four days before they arrived,
rs every night they landed and hauled
up their craft on the sandy beach.
Philips heart was relieved at the

could have been happy at the prospect
OF again meeting her had heInot been
so constantly fretted by the company
OF Schriften.
AS soon as they arrived at the prin-
ripal port and town Of Ternate. they

Of palmetto leaves and bamboo. and
requested not to leave 1t until their ar

breeding of these islanders was the
