why We Blush.

"Unsteadiness of purpose and in.
stability of mind are regarded as gen.
eral characteristics of Llushers," saw
the Paris experts who have been in
vestigating the blrshing habit. "Hab.
itual blushers are also subject to
changes in temperature. Our obser-
walton shows that they blush oftener
and more violently in damp and stormy
weather than on cold winter days or
during the heat of summer. At all
times, however, it is the condition of
the mind that produces the disease.
An uncertain stir to their feelings may
be productive of blushing in those
hereditarily inclined to it; others are
made to blush by any painful shock,
occasioned by shame, remorse, grief
or by the reproaches of superiors or
friends. A pretty girl who listens to
the first compliments paid to her with
blushing cheek is certainly an agree.
BILE if not always pretty picture But
3 blushing man is an abomination.
Strong men do not blush. Only the
weak, womanish, supersensitive men
do. Chicago Times Herald.

There are two ways of renewing
strawberry beds besides the one ofre.
setting entirely. OF late the best
growers try to get the heaviest posi-
BILE crop the first season after the vines
come into bearing and then plowing
up the vines and reset or put in some
other crop. Others are beginning to
adopt the plan of moving the vines
after the crop is off and after they are
dry, raking them between the rows
and burning them and then working
the soil very close to the old rows
with cultivators, and hand hoeing in
the cows so as to give the runners q
chance to find well pulverized soil in
which to start the new growth.
Still another plan is to work the
soil up between the rows, as above
stated, and as soon as the runners
have spread out between the rows and
taken root the old vines are cut eff
with a sharp hoe and new rows estab-
lished between where the old ones
were, the space occupied by the rows
being worked up with the cultivator.
Either of these plans are good and
practicable, and for small patches we
think them preferable to resetting al
together. Strawberries take kindly
to fertilizers, and it is possible to
grow very large crops if they are at
tended to in proper manner and at
the right time. No farm garden
should be without few rows of these
berries

"rlommy Atkins"

The new Chinese regiment Of the
Bristish army, at Wei-Hai- Wei, is to
be an infantry one, armed with the
Martini Metford rifle, a weapon which
has been highly spoken of as the re.
suit of experience in various parts of
Africa. The men will be paid IS a
month, and when the other advantages
of the service are taken into account
there should be little difficulty in OBJ
tanning a select body of men. Major
Bowers first difficulty will, apparent.
ly, be that of securing accommodation
for the new troops at Wei Hal Wei,
for at present, so far as can be learned,
there is nothing ready in that respect.
The uniform has not yet been settled,
but in all probability it will be pic.
turesque but serviceable adoption of
the dress of the Chinese soldier. As
to the fighting qualities of the men, it
is of course too early to speak with
certainty, but, knowing the class from
which they will probably come, Ma
ior Bower is sanguine that in, due
time he will command really efec-
tive force.-North China Herald.

1T WASN'T ALWAYS VULGAR.
In OId-Fashioned Days "Dish'' of Tea
Was Proper Style.
T Y r
NJ Y x O N
r o @

In OId-Fashioned Days a "Dish'' of Tea
Was Proper Style.
Etiquette is strange >ffair. 1t
changes so indisputably that what in
one century will be called polite in
another will be dubbed the climax of
vulgarity. Take that simple matter,
for example, the drinking Of tea from
the saucer. When tea was first used
in England it was drunk from dish.
In old collections of china many OF
these quaint pieces will be found;
they are shallow basins devoid of
handles altogether.
Then some one introduced cups
with handles and saucers. Old-fash-
ioned folk did not care for them, and
as protest they poured their tea into
the saucer and drank it from there,
barking back as far as they could to
the old beloved "dish."
But as to be old fashioned is usual.
ly an objectionable social crime, peo-
pie who were up-to-date determined
that to drink from the saucer was
vulgar habit, just as bad as eating
with knife. In the kitchen and
comfortable quarters of that kind,
where those who drank their tea
drank it as they preferred, the fashion
for pouring it into the saucer contin.
ued. But upstairs my lady was far
too fastidIous. She waited until hers
cooled, or drank it scalding. And SO
matters have gone on. Even if this
year leader of society were to stalt
the old fashion again it would take
many long month to do away with
the great prejudice there is in Eng.
land for tea drinking out of the saucer.
1t has been said that the Queen
sometimes drinks her tea that way.
Her gracious majesty may or may not
do so; even should she, that would
not make it correct for my lady in her
parlor to do so too.

As rule we do not place sufficient
value upon the purely ornamental side
of farm life. Country property would
be greatly improved if farmers would
consider the looks of the house, gar.
dens and fields little, and Indirectly
they would gain thereby. A farming
country that is pleasing to The eye al.
ways attracts more people to the re.
gion. and the nearby market for pro.
duce is thus bulls up. Railroad COM
panies appreciate the value of this by
offering prizes frequently for the
prettiest farm on the line of their
route, which can be viewed from the
car windows. They also pay consid-
cradle in prizes for the best grounds
around their depots. Manufacturers
likewise are trying to make their fac
tories attractive by cultivating trees,
flowers and shrubbery on the grounds.
Altogether many of our most success
full business men attach more impor-
tance to the value of ornamental gar
dening and horticulture than the aver
age farmer.
Ornamental horticulture need not
be- q waste, either. 1t is possible to
combine with it profitable work that
more than pays for the outlay of time,
money and labor. Thus in some places
there is demand for cut flowers, so
that the farmer who raises plenty of
fine specimens in the front garden can
sell them at fair price. But flowers
are not the only ornaments. Many of
our fruit trees present pretty sights
at all seasons Iof the year. What is
handsomer than garden of fruit trees
in the blossom season, Or again when
the fruits are ripening? Such sight
is admired by anybody. Even vines
lend attraction to the place.
The taste in arranging these fruit
trees will decide the value of the or
namentation. If one has an eye for
the beautiful he will cover up ugly
spots in the landscape, and arrange his
trees so as to intensity any particular
bright place. 1t costs no more to do
this than to plant the trees and vines
in haphazard way. The house and
barns can be changed materially by
training a few,. vines flowers and
shrubbery around them. 1t may not
be possible to find a money market for
the fruits thus raised, but they will
supply the table with something that
is always desirable, and that is not al
ways the case on every farm. james

Many must have noticed that in
winter time the sky seems to lack the
roominess and lofty arching of sum-
mer. 1t appears on cloudy, or partially
cloudy days, to be nearer the earth
than is the case on similar days dur
ing the summer months. That this ap-
pearance is no figment of the imagina-
tion is shown by recent investigations
made at the Upsala Observatory on the
elevation of clouds. 1t is found that
all varieties of clouds float at a much
greater altitude in summer than in
winter. The months of greatest ele-
vation, at least in Sweden, are June
and July.

Most growers of currants allow the
bushes to take their own way Of
growth. AS the currant plant is al
ways produced from cuttings it is sure
to send up number of shoots from
each set and these quickly make mass
of shrubbery that keeps. the inside Of
the bush from receiving enough sun
light to perfect the fruit. Besides,
where there is great mass of shrub
berry some of the leaves are likely not
to get thoroughly busted with helle
bore, and thus allow the currant worm
to perpetuate itself. Some for this
reason advocate reducing the bush to
single stem. This makes it easy TO
control the currant worm and the finest
fruit is thus produced. But just as
good fruit, and greater in amount, can
be grown by leaving two or three
stems. Occasionally a stem breaks
down by accident, and if it is the only
one there is gap in the row. Even if
all the single stems remain their yield
cannot be as great as it will be by leav.
ing two, three, or perhaps four to grow
from one roofing.
