CARE OF ROSES.
Valuable Suggestions for House,
wives who Look After Plants
and Flowers.

June roses require pruning but once
a year. This should be done in spring,
as soon as one is able to see where the
strongest and healthiest shoots are GO
ing to be. The old wood should be cut
back nearly half, and all weak, un,
healthy branches should be removed.
If the branches are thick, they should
be thinned out well. Air should have
free circulation through the plant.
Hybrid perpetuals require a differ
cnt treatment. AS their flowers are
produced on new growth only, they
should be grown on system which
Ensures the constant production of
such growth. This is done by making
and keeping the soil very rich, and by
cutting the plants back sharply after
each period Of Towering. The term
perpetual is a misleading one, because
it carries with it the idea that the roses
in this class are, under all conditions,
ever-bloomers. But such is not the
case. They bear E. profuse crop of
flowers in June and July. After that,
by pursuing the treatment advised
| above, they bloom at intervals during
the season, but never in such profu-
sion as in early summer. Without the
treatment advised they will not do
this. Many varieties are shy boomers,
and will only give an occasional flower
after July. The freest boomers are not
| tn G ha "a Era
"oses, but their flowers, though few
in number compared with those of the
first crop, are so large, so fine in form,
so rich in color, and SO fragrant as a
general thing that we cannot afford to
overlook this class in making our col
lections of roses. 1t requires more at
tention than any other, but the results
are well worth all the care we expend
on it.
Of the June roses the best for gem
i.@ral use are the MOSES, in red, pink
and white; the Provence and the good
old damask, both delightfully."- sweet,
large, double and of fine shape, and
produced with wonderful freedom; the
| yellow Persian, which well merits the
name Cloth of Gold,' so rich is the
color; and the small low-growing
Scotch and Austrian varieties. There
are Others in this general class which
deserve a place in any collection, but
have named those which the amateur
gardener will be most likely to sue
coed. When he or she learns to grow
these well, other sorts can be added
with a reasonable chance of success

After the Bath Take a Walk.

After having washed the body all over
cold or tepid water, dress warmly
and walk for an hour at least; exercise
is essential to health, without which
beauty cannot exist. The fresh water
stimulates the blood, and gives, natur-
ally, a rosy tint to the complexion. The
exercise, shaking off the lassitude
caused by fatigue, gives a steady cir
,ulation to the blood, which enables ii
to flow freely through the natural
channels, and imparts to the skin the
'resh color which is such a charm

 Cry For Water Answered.
 There was a vessel that had been tossed on the seas for a great many weeks and been disabled and the sup ply of water gave out. and the crew were dying of thirst. After many days they saw a sail against the sky. They signaled it. When the vessel came nearer, the people on the suffering ship cried to the captain of the other vessel, "Senf us some waterl We are dying for lack of water" And the captain on the vessel that was hailed responded "Dip your buckets where you are. Ton are in the mouth of the Amazon, and there are scores of miles of fresh water all around about you and hundreds of feet deepi" And then they dropped their buckets over the side of the vessel and brought up the clear. bright fresh water and put out the fire of their thirst So hail you today. after a long and perilous voyage, thirsting as you are for pardon, and thirsting for com fort, and thirsting for eternal life, and ask you what is the use of your going in that death struck state while all around you is the deep. clear. wide, sparkling flood of Gods sympathetic mercy9 Oh, dip your buckets and drink and live foreverl "Whosoever will, let him come and take of the water of life freely"
 Yet there are people who refuse this divine sympathy, and they try to fight their own battles, and drink their own vinegar, and carry their own burdens, and their life. instead of being a tri umphal march from victory to victory. will be a hobbling on from defeat to defeat until they make final surrender to retributive disaster. Oh, l wish l could today gather up in my arms all the woes of men and women, all their heartaches, all their disappointments, all their chagrins, and just take them right to the feet of a sympathizing Jesusl He took the vinegar. Mana Sahib, after he had lost his last battle in India, fell back into the jungles of Iheri-jungles so full of malaria that DO mortal can live there. He carried with him also ruby of great luster and of great value. He died in those jungles His body was never found. and the ruby has never yet been recov- cred. And fear that today there are some who will fall back from this sub ject into the sickening. killing jungles of their sin, carrying gem of infinite value-a priceless soul to be lost forever Oh, that that ruby might flash in the eternal coronationi But, no, There are some. fear, who turn away from this offered mercy and comfort and divine sympathy notwithstanding that Christ, for all who would accept his grace, trudged the long way. and suffered the lacerating thongs, and received in his face the approximations of the filthy mob. and for the guilty. and the dis couraged. and the discomforted of the race took the vinegar.

CLEVER BOY CHESS PLAYER.
Sfxteen-year-old Youth, With

sfxteen-year-old Youth, With .
 Handicap, Beats Pillsbury.
 When a boy of 16 years plays chess with master of the game. even with & heavy handicap allowance, he does we'll If that boy plays against Champion Harry N. Pillsbury with even the queen handicap and wins his game, he is en- titled to credit as promising young player. This latter is just what Chi cago boy has done- Harry Hammers fahr, lad of 16, who lives at 389 Divi- sion street, Chicago, who has been play ing the game at home and elsewhere since he was 10 years old, played the champion at the Chicago Chess and Checker club rooms and won.
 Young Hammersfahr is no prodigy. He is just a wholesome. hearty boy with a studious bent. He has good teacher in the science and trickery of the game in his father, who has been a devotee of the game for many years. The boy himself is more proud of the fact that he played with the champion than that he should have won. The game cannot be called a very brilliant one on either side, judging from the reports of those who saw it; but the lad, in spite of several early mistakes. saw the attempt of the master to force a draw, avoided it neatly and com pelled MT. Pillsbury to resign.
 Pillsbury allowed the boy the queen, the most valuable piece in the chess game. The performance of the boy can- not be called mediocre in any respect, for Pillsbury won from several noted club members under the same handicap. These noted players made none of the mistakes which marred the boys early moves, but they were not able to rally as he did. He not only atoned for the errors, but escaped a pitfall set for him which would have resulted in stale mate
 The lad was nervous in the begin ming, for he realized how formidable an opponent he was matched against Sheer nervousness caused his mistakes, but as the work progressed he seemed to gain courage and made a series of real ly brilliant moves when the game look ed a bit doubtful But the master was able to stand him off and cut down his forces so that at the end it was knight against pawn in the boys favor The boy could not do what is called trading off and have the champion defeated in one more move. so the resignation fol lowed, of course.
 Pillsbury was much pleased with the youngsters work and is of the opinion that, with care and study, he will be- came a formidable player opposed to anybody. Philadelphia Inquirer.
