KEEPING CUT FLOWERS.
Floral Beauties Preserved Fresh
For Five or Six Weeks.

Here is a method by which
flowers can be made to last and
look well after they have been
cut for six weeks. or even long
er, placing them thus within
the reach of even the poorest
lover Of flowers.
Every night they should be
taken out Of the vases and the
stalks should be thoroughly
1insed under a tap Of running
water, any deconposed matter
being carefully removed with
the fingers.
Have ready a basin of strong
soapsuds and place them in it for
the night. Be careful that the
water touches only the stalks, as
1t would fade the delicate bios
SONS; this supplies them with d
certain amount of nourishment
Rinse the stalks the next
morning in running water, and
IS each bloom is ready to be
placed in the vase Of fresh wa
ter snipp off the smallest possible
portion of the stalk with a pair
of sharp scissors; in arranging
them be very careful to trim
away any faded pieces.
A few drops Of sulphate ans
monia must then be put in each
vase every alternate day, and
will contain all the properties of
good manure for keeping the
blossom alive.
At night put the blossoms
away in a cool, dark place; it is
not good, either for the flowers
OF the household, that they
should remain in the living
toom.
To revive flowers put them
into warm salt water, to which
has been added a few drops Of
sulphate Of ammonia.
To keep spray Of arranged
flowers fresh place them on
damp cotton under basin; this
keeps the air always moist and
preserves their freshness. 1t is
especially good for maiden hair
fern.

A Neglected Hero.

In his speech at Chicago, the
Secretary of the Navy. John D.
Long, paid the following wells
deserved tribute to the courage
he dash, the splendid heroism
and the fine seamanship of
Richard Wainwright: "In the
long watch before Santiago the
terror OF our g1eat battleships
was the two Spanish torpedo
boat destroyers, those swift,
6endish sharks of the sea, very
engines of death and destruction.
and yet when the great battle
came it was the unprotected
Gloucester, a converted yacht,
the former plaything and pleas
ure boat of Summer vacation,
which, without hesitation or
turning, attacked these demons
OF the seas and sunk them both.
| have always thought it the
most heroic and gallant individ-
ual instance of fighting during
the war"
TO this the Cleveland Leader
adds: "The American people
and especially the boys of this
country should remember the
words of Secretary Long. Sure>
ly Richard Wainwright, modest
in peace, unusually competent
and accomplished as the chief
executive officer on the old
Maine, an American whose blood
has come to him from the Rev.
olution, a hero and a fighting
man, will shine in the records
of various deed, sword or no
sword, for all time to come"

GIRL THRASHES A BUR
LAR.
Repeatedly Struck Him in a
Desperate Struggle, and
Finally Chased Him out
of the Window.

Darby can boast of a heroine,
one whose brave conduct in
fighting a burglar prevented the
house ora sick friend from be-
ing robbed. Her name is Miss
Helen Louderback, aged eight
cen years, daughter of Prof.
Louderback, of Chester, Pa. She
was nursing a sick friend, Miss
Alice Pierson, who has been i'll
for months, and has been living
with her in her Chester home
for more than two months.
Miss Louderback retired at
10 o'clock on Wednesday night.
She sleeps in the same room
with the invalid, and had been
III bed only an hour when she
heard a suspicious noise in an
outer room. Making her way
down stairs to investigate, she
went to the kitchen, put the
lamp on the table, and proceed
ed to all out shed in the dark.
She opened the door and in the
dim light of the moon, half hid
den by the cloudy sky, she saw
the form of a man.
Almost at the same instant
she was seized by both arms in
a grip that would have made
any other woman scream at the
top of her voice. On the cons
ry,she pluckily resisted, and
during the desperate struggle
that ensued managed to free her
self. Then, with all the force she
possessed, she struck the intrud-
er full in the face.
The unexpected attack from
the young and fragile girl shat
tered the would be burglars
nerves. The next instant he
took a header through the shed
window. Just as he turned from
her the young girl sprang after
him and succeeded in landing
another blow on the cheek. AS
soon as the man was out Of the
window he disappeared.
Miss Louderback again prov>
ed herself different from other
women. Instead of spreading an
alarm, she displayed her GOODNESS
by re entering the house, lock-
ing the premises, and retiring
for the night.
This morning she related her
thrilling experience in her own
quiet way, and explained her
reason for saying nothing about
it before retiring, saying she
did not want to alarm her inval-
id friend, whose physical condit-
ion she thought might have not
such shock.-The
honest little heroine shows in>
disputable evidence of her strug-
gle in marks and bruises. Her
arms are severely swollen and
scratched from the burglars
clutches.-Ex.

Market Improving.

A few yea~ ago cattle raising was
Improbable Except on very cheap
land and many cattle raisers went
out of business. Herds were depleted
and now the battle men are confront
ed with demand for beef cattle that
cannot be md without cutting into
their herds and selling breeding
stock. The same condition is coming
on in the horse market. The demand
for horses for military use by this
country and England can only be
met by taking the best breeding
stock. The faising of horses has
been abaudoqsd by many, and as it
takes several ears to get horse on
the market, the signs of the times are
that horse raising will be a most pro
ftable businesS for the next few years
OF course plugs aud bronchos will
not command u very good price, bu
the man that hAs good, sound, wei
bred horses, even at this time, Cal
command his oRn price. The farm
ers of North Dakota can, with little
care in breeding supply this deman'
to a great extent, and now is the tim
to commence.-Wahpeton Globe.

ideal officer on the field. but off duty
was hail fellow with every man, pre-
serving his respect at all times. In
numerous instances he saved men
from probable court.marshal; at least
from unpleasant experiences. On
one occasion be is reported to have
been riding siuto camp one night,
when he found a sergeant gloriously
drunk on the.line, The sergeant was
ordinarily good fellow, but was
celebrating asrecent,, victory on this
particular occasion. Instead OF or
dering his arrest the major got the
fellow on his horse and back to his
tent to sober Up. On many occasions
in battle he displayed the Most signal

Wireless Telegraphy a Success.

The Marconi sy stem of wireless
telegraphy, has SECURED decided
success in the repprts of the great
yacht race, betweeh the Shamroc k
and the Columbia. The report was
sent in from quite 8 distance out at
sea, by Marconi hiHself, who had his
apparatus on boat: which followed
the course of the race.
Signor Marconi reported accurately
the movements ofathe two yachts,
when they were obscured by the hazy
atmosphere from tie gaze of thous-
ands of onlookers from distance.
He sent in severaldispatches during
the race, giving. information that
could not be otherwise obtained at
the time, and the correctness of which
was proven later On when the ciis-
patch boats camesin.
In the meantime report reached
New York City that the big excursion
boat, Grand Republic, had sunk with
all on board-so,ne two thousands
souls. The New York Herald tele-
graphed Marconi the rumor. From
far out at sea, came back the mes
sage:
"Grand Republic all right. I
can see her row. She is follow
ing the General Slocum in.
& Alarconi."
This sets at rest the practibility of
the wireless telegraphy. 1t is one of
the most important & iscoveries of
this age. 1t will revolutionize the
telegraph system of the world. The
possibilities of this system are almost
unlimited, for it demonstrates, and it's
success rests on the fact, that SOUND
waves set ia motion, in the upper
ether, will move in given direction
carrying definite impressions for a
long distance. There is no fast
lights or signals about it; but th'
message is transmitted through tn
medium of sound waves.-Argus.
