To make house plants grow, Professor
Boosof says: Saturate the earth around
them every day with the coffee left over
at breakfast. Five or six drops Of am
monia to every pint of water once q
week will make them flourish. To make
Dubious flowers blossom, I'll a flower
pot half full Of quicklime and the re-
mainder with good earth, plant bulbs
and keep the earth damp. The heat of
the earth will cause the bulb TO send
forth shoots to blossom. The colors Of
red and violet flowers are rendered ex-
tremely brilliant by covering the earth
in their pots with about one-half inch OF
pulverized charcoal. Charcoal does not
affect yellow flowers at all in this way.

WORKED FOR ~sPoDvMENE.
The Eta mine, owned by The Har-

doctor in New York CITY, who, some
weeks ago let q contract 10 Frank Nc
Laughlin and William McGregor for
getting out 500 tons Of spodumene. The

ORNAMENTAL
A white substance resembling alabas-
ter very closely has been found near
Custer in the southern Hills, says the
Pioneer.Timss in its issue of the 18th.
1t is on the property that has been Sc
cured by George S. Jackson Of this city,
+. 4. Smith and George Book Of Custer,
situated about twenty miles west Of Gus
ter, towards Newcastle. The substance
which has attracted their attention is Of
the purest whiteness, ard when first
taken ont of the ground it is soft and al
most pliable. 1t can be whitfield with
a knife as readily as a lump of clay into
any desired form. II gradually hardcns
upon exposure to the atmosphere, and
in a few weeks becomes as firm as the
hardest pottery. and glistens like china
aware or polished ivory. 1t is said not
to be alabaster, although there has never
been an analysis and classification, III
that il is not known just what ii is.
Prof +. G.. Smith, II Of the men inter
ested in 1t, is Of the opinion that it will
prove OF great value for ornamental
work.
