In one Of his lectures as Slade pro-
fessor of fine art at Oxford Mr.. Ruskin
confessed to his hearers something Of hin
own appreciation Of his literary style;
"None Of my writings are done fluent
ly. The second volume of Modern
Painters was all Of 1t written twice.
most Of It four times over, and these
lectures have been written don't know
how many times. You may think this
was done merely In an authors vanity,
not 10 tutors care. To the vanity I
plead guilty. No man Is more intensely
vain than l am. But my vanity 10 set
on having it known Of me that | am
good master, not in having 1t said Of me
that am a smooth author. My vanity
Is never more wounded than in being
called fine writer, meaning that nobody
need mind what l say"
1t is curious circumstance that while
his mastery of language won for him and
his ideas Oh art wide audience through
out the English speaking world, his Or
ford lectures were SHINY attended by the
students Of that university. The lecture
Of which we are speaking, for example,
although nominally given before the
University of Oxford" was in fact de.
lyered to four hearers, and three Of the
four, as the Slade professor buntly told
them, ought not to have been at Oxford
at all,-NeW York Sun.

A FEARFUL EXPERIENCE. ~
How = Deg Saved His Master From
an Awful Death.

In "Wild Animals Have Known" Mr..
Ernest Seton Thompson relates a terri.
BILE experience. He had gone out alone
to remote district on his pony to inspect
some wolf traps. In one Of them he
found wolf and, having killed 1t, was
engaged in resetting the trap when in
adyertently he sprang the next one, and
his hand was caught in the massive steel
jaws.
II lay on my face" he says, "and
stretched out my toe. hoping to draw
within reach the trap wrench, which
had thrown down few feet away. Wolf
traps are set in tours around buried
bait and are covered with cotton and
fine sand SO as to be quite invisible. In
tent on securing my wrench. l swung
about my anchor. stretching and reach
Ing to the utmost, unable to see just
where it lay, but trusting to the sense Of
touch to find it. A moment later there
was sharp 'clank! and the iron jaws Of

struggle as l would. ! could not re-
move either trap, and there lay stretch
ed out and securely staked to the ground.
No one knew where had gone. and there
was Blight u uuy Oue COiiilUS
to the place for weeks. The full horror
Of my situation was upon me-to be de-
voured by wolves or die of cold and
starvation. My pony meantime stood
patiently waiting to take me home. The
afternoon waned, and night came on-a
night of horror! Wolves howled in the
distance and then came nearer and near
er. They seized upon and devoured the
carcass Of the one had slaughtered, and
one Of them, growing holder, came up
and snarled in my face.
'"Then there was a sudden rush and a
fight among the wolves could not see
well, and for an instant I thought my
time had come when big fellow dashed
upon me. But it was Bingo, my noble
dog, who rubbed his shaggy, painting
sides against me and licked my face. He
had scattered the wolves and killed one,
as afterward learned.
'Bingo. Bingo, old boy! Fetch me the
trap wrenchr Away he went and came
dragging my rife, for he knew only that
wanted something.
"'No, Bingo; the trap wrench This
time it was my sash, but at last he
brought the wrench and wagged his tail
In joy that it was right.
"With difficulty, reaching out with my
free hand, l unscrewed the pillar nut.
The trap fell apart, and my hand was
released. and minute later l was free.
Bingo brought up my pony, which had
fled at the approach Of the wolves, and
soon we were on the way home. with the
dog, as herald, leaping and barking for
JOY"

Probably LOT woman In twenty

without having them attacked sooner
or later by insects. once on the spot
and unmolcstcd. they increase like the
hordes of Egypt. eating the leaves and
sucking the sap until they quite ruin
the little garden.
The reason insects are worse on
house plants than in the garden Is be-
cause the first are grown under highly
artificial conditions. Living rooms are
unhealthfully hot; the pottcd plants
are crampcd in root and subject To
water gorge or thirst starvation IL the
watering pot is in careless hands.
Moreover the atmosphere is surcharg-
ed with dust and coal smoke. And a.
insects always attack first weak and
dirty foliage there is "A special attrac-
ton to them in every struggling house

The common house insects are aphis,
or green plant louise. the scale and the
red spider. The aphis is the most
common. The usual recommended
Kerosene emulsion will kill them read
lily enough. but the trouble is that at
the first sprinkle they drop OF and
fall to the earth. Here they hide,
ready as soon AS the furry is over to
climb up to the stems and go sucking
the plants juices again. To avoid this
lift the plant from the shelf with great
care, so as not to jar or dislodge them.
Wrap a cloth around the top of the
pot and close to the plants stems, so
the earth in the pot can neither tumble
out nor the insects tumble In. Then
quickly invert the plants top into a
pan of water. and If the water is quite
warm so much the better. Lift the
plant out and shake vigorously. Dip
again In the water. then again shake,
and so continue until every tiny louise

TIE young man who took the money
was arrested at Silver Creek and

he pleaded guilty to petit larceny, re-

judge gave him n sentence of fifteen
days in the county Jail, no part of

New York District Attorney Removed
From once.

An Albany, N. Y. dispatch of De-

announced that he had removed from
office Col. Asa Bird Gardner, district
attorney of New York county, on
charges preferred by Deputy Attorney
j. ii. Hammond, and had appointed
Eugene j. Philbin of the state chart
ties board tn the vacancy. Mr.. Phil
bin is a democrat.
In a long memorandum the governor
sets forth his reasons for removing
Colonel Gardner. lie says:
'The charge vitality affecting the con-
duet of the district attorney is that
which relate to his ti-ude at and
about election toward the indictment
of Chief of Police Devcry after the lat,

well in clean water and return to the
window. II a thorough Job has been
done there will be no more trouble.
but the plant should be examined
again in "A couple of days and, II need
be, the treatment repeated.
Scale insects stick to the bark or
leaves as though they were glued
there. Dislodge them with a wooden
%toothpick. keeping a close lookout for
them and finish by washing the plant
well In sOapy water. This must be
repeated every few days until no more
scale can be found. They are not
ovcr-common. but n peculiarly stub
born pest. Red spider is almost as
common as aphis, but so tiny that few
know that this is what IL the matter
with their plants. When without any
apparent reason leaves turn n sickly
color or show little yellow specks all
over them, or begin to curl at the
edges. we may suspect little Mr.. Red
Spider, no bigger than a grain Of red
pepper and camping with his wife and
babies. his parents, grandparents,
aunts, uncles aud cousins on the under
side of the plants leaves. Too hot and
too dusty air is the cause OF the red
spider. There is N sure and simple
remedy for him and his. II is water.
Have IL warm and plenty Of IL, and
see that the under side OF the leaves
get as much wetting as the upper, and
this foe is soon vanquished. A plant
can be dipped in water as hot as the
hand ran be borne In it and 1t will not
hurt In the least, If not kept longer at
u time beneath the water than two or
three seconds. That degree Of heat kills
the red spider quickly. Dip half a
dozen times In the hot water in quick
succession and the work Is done.
Wash all plant leaves often. A
clean plant is not inviting to insects.

%pearance and you have solved the Sc

Walks with n Rrokcn Back.

A case that Is attracting attention in
the surgical world Is that OF Michael
kepler OF Raveno, Pa, who is suffer-

ago he fell and sustained the injury.
The local doctors did not give him
much relief, and after two years he
went TO Blossberg. Since then he has
undergone fourteen operations. He
was discharged from several hospitals
as incurable and was told to prepare
for the end. Kepler never became dis
couraged, and about a year ago he
commenced to gain strength and for
several months he has been able to
walk. His health is excellent, but the
pain in his back il intense. The bone
