Tomato Culture in England.

When an early crop Of tomatoes is
wanted, sowing is made in January,
and other sowings may take place
at intervals until the beginning of
September. From the last sowing 4
supply Of fruit is obtained during the
winter months. Market gardeners
raise crops which will be ready for
sale at seasons when they expect good
prices will be obtained; they know
that when crops like apples and
oranges are first offered a decline in
the price Of tomatoes is certain. 1t
is also found eXpedient, in gardens
where tomatoes are the principal crop,
to have other crops on which to rely
to make up for losses and to occupy
the staff Of workmen throughout the
year. HothOuses for grapes, peaches
and cucumbers, and for forcing straw
berries and chrysanthemums, are built
side by side with tomato houses. A
portion Of the ground is also frequent
ly set apart for mushrooms; and this
crop is gathered from the sides of
ridges which are from three to four
feet high. AS the mushroom, unlike
the tomato, does not thrive in sun
shine, the ridges are Uttered with
loose straw to protect them from the
suns rays and heavy falls of rain.
In several gardens apple and pear
trees are planted; but as the ground
is in high state of cultivation. only
choicevarieties are raised.-Chambers'
Journal.

Australia Wants Domestic Helm.

The British Women's Emigration So
ciety offers free passage to Western
Australia and profitable places when
they have arrived there to good, strong
domestic servants. But it advises serv-
ants who are seeking light places, with
no scrubbing, regular evening out,
as well as all day Sundays, to bide
by the mother country. Women who
want Paris gowns, grand pianos and
sat home" days are also cautioned
against availing themselves Of the
advantages of travel offered. Strong,
practical women, who are willing to
work hard and take the rough with
the smooth, are the ones wanted.
Wages are high, but the work is apt
to be hard. New Zealand is also call
ing for domestic help, and intelligent
women who will become companion
helps are at premium in Canada.

rors TO Life in the Metropolis.
"Winter is coming" said the man in
charge Of IN express elevator in one
Of the skyscrapers in lower Broadway.
As he spoke he wiped the perspira-
ton from his brow with dirty hand
kerchief, and the Writer seemed far
off indeed.
why don't you ask me whether it's
warm enough for me?" growled the
grumpy tenant; "or whether wouldn't
like to be the iceman?"
Il didn't mean it that way at all,
sir" said the elevator man respect
fully. II was just :wonderin' how
many of us would go next winter"
Go! Go where:" asked the grumpy
man. Don't they run as many eleya-
tors in winter as in summer"
Lord, yesr' vas the ah9Fer. II
didn't mean that we'd los& ur jobs,
but that some of us will go Ehere we
won't want any jobs. We'rd p doomed
lot, we elevator people, anu no one
seems to have noticed it."
Il don't understand how that is"
said the grumpy man. You have al
most no accidents now, with your cleo
trio brakes and safety catches"
Did you ever hear Of elevator con-
sumptionT" asked the elevator man.
That's what is the matter with US.
1t comes from shooting up and down
these draughty shafts for twelve hours
& lay. Most Of the time we're bent
over, and you can't keep the cold air
out of your lungs, and there you are.

strands at,a more modeS
These Fren6b pearls are nd
cheap, either. a string of tirSs b Of no
great pretensions costs about $3.50. If
it were of real pearls it would tcost at
least ten times that amount, hRwever.
In a great many cases the pc rl ear
drops that my lady wears these
clever limitations. If the ST. lie has
been pierced for the setting may
be pretty sure that it is the counter
felt, for the real pearl is seldom
pierced, the aim being to preserve il
intact and to show that it is so.
The same firm that imports these
remarkable French pearls brings over
rhinestones Of great brillianGy and
beauty which easily may be mistaken
for diamonds. They are used extern
sively for belt buckles and other
clasps, for brooches, for combs, for
the little pins for catching up stray
locks at the back Of the hair, and even
for rings. a popular fancy is 30 mix
imitation and real stones, for example,
4 well-counterfeited pearl with real
diamonds or pseudo diamonds and real
pearls. This is only carrying to the
extreme the tendency to enrich an al
ready profuse decoration Of expensive
ornaments by deftly arranging among
them ornaments of a less costly charac-
ter that will not suffer by contrast with
the precious stones and will add to the
richness Of the effect. The whole
front Of rich evening gown may be
amblaZoned in this way without giving
4 hint Of the economy practiced.
Among the recent importations by
the most prominent dealer in semi
precious and high-grade limitations of
real gems are some magnificent dog
collars. consisting Of six or more
strings of medium sized pearls with
clasps of brilliant stones set in silver
or platinum, the whole making rich
and effective ccllaret costing from S100
to $500, whereas if it were what it
seems to be i: would cost from $4,000
to $4,000. The pendants to be worn
on a small gold chain, which are much
approved by fashion. are initiated
skillfully, even to the pear-shaped
pearl of conspicuous size which is seen
in many Of them.
Some new belt buckles are extremely
beautiful, having morning glory or
some other flower design in natural
colors inclosed in a circlet Of "dia-
monds." These buckles cost from S25
up. and are warranted to keep their
brilliancy and color indefinitely. Sim
liar designs are shown in slides for
neck velvet or ribbon.
Large hearts composed Of small imi-
tation diamonds are popular, and can
be bought for as little as S25. or as
much as $50 Scintillating butter

price. Emeralds can be initiated eX-
cellently, but opals. with their elusive

Insecfs and Prchistoric Forests.

1t is not unlikely that some Of the
curious alterations in the distribution
Of forest trees which biologists have
recognized may have been due to the
Development in former ages of the
gypsy moth or other like destructive
species Of insect. Thus in the early
Miocent Tertiary Europe was tenanted
by host Of species closely akin to
those that now form our admirable
American broad-leaved forests. The
magnolias, the gums and the tulip
treeS were then as well developed in
Europe as they are in this country.
Suddenly all these species disappeared
from the Old World. There is no rca-
son to believe that the change was due
to an alteration in climate. There are
many evidences indeed that such was
not the case. 1t is very reasonable
conjecture that that alteration was
brought about by the invasion Of an
insect enemy which may have beer
the ancestor of the gypsy moth.--Pro.
