Good Cherries for Eating

It seems strange that more cher
ries are not raised for marketing
says Mcehan's Monthly. The writer
rarely recalls trip that he made to
Europe some years ago without long
ing recollections Of the luscious
cherries so plentiful in the markets
there. Throughout Germany and
France no market was without them.
and neither was our little party for
long at time. BY the pound, the
fruit was handled in "cornucopias"
of paper, and was dispensed to hosts
of passers-by. Excuse for this rarity
in market is sometimes offered that
the robins get the profits, while the
orchardist gets the labor for his
share. But blackbirds and thrushes
are as troublesome in the old world
but the cherry-grower finds it pays
to enclose the tree in sailors netting
during the fruit-ripening time.

!ost any time of the year,except June

most any time of the ar,except June
and July.
The grubs transform in June and the
beetles appear soon afterward, and
their presence is conspicuous by the
peculiar manner in which they eat the
leaves, as shown in the picture, fur
nished us by Prof. NJ. V. Slingerland, Of
Cornell university experiment station.
The work of these BEETLES can be seen
from the latter part of June until the
leaves drop in the autumn, and the
young vines may be seriously injured.
They usually begin on the lower leaves
and work upward, injuring the tender
foliage as it comes out. Sometimes the
injury done by grubs below ground
in the roots is quite as severe as that
done by the beetle on the leaves. The
majority Of the grubs are found just
beneath the large roots, where they
join the trunk. They gnaw the bark
from the roots and even completely
destroy the young rootlets.
The adult deposits it's eggs shortly
after it energies, and continues until
July. The eggs are laid in small patches
under loosened bark and often several
feet above the roots. Sometimes they
are pushed into the soil about the base
of the vine. When the grubs reach ma
turity they work themselves short
distance from the main root, forming
earthen cells, in which they remain
during the winter until the following
June, when the adults emerge. If the
soil is kept in a loose, well-pulverized
condition and banked up slightly to-
ward the vine, many of the newly
Matched grubs will be unable to reach
the roots and are thus destroyed.
The soil about the base of the vines
should be kept pulverized by frequent
cultivation, especially during the
month of July. Advantage can also be
taken of the 'possum habit" of the
beetle, and they can be caught on
sheets in very much the same manner
as the plum or peach curculio is cap
tured. Arsenate of lead or disparene
is recommended in preference to other
poisons for spraying foliage, as it will
stick much longer and there is little
or no danger of burning the leaves with
it. About one pound of disparene in
so gallons of water is generally recon-
mended, and the vines should be
sprayed between June 25 and July 49,

TWO TALES OF TACT
How a Couple of Brig hit Women Man.
aged to smooth Over Two I'm
fortunate Situations.

Henry Loomis Nelson, in his article
IN the Century, on Washington So
ciety, tells these anecdotes of the
capital as representative of the light
and shade of official life:
Madam" said an old diplomat at
his own table, Il have some bonbons
here from Paris. They have medal
lions of the potentates of the world,
and L have had your rulers face
stamped on one of them. Is it not
a good likeness" And he handed a
chocolate to the woman on his right,
who, for reasons of her husbands,
did not like the new president.
1--WE have no rulers in this cOun-
try" said the gracious guest, throw
ing the chocolate under the table.
The hosts attention had been at
tracted elsewhere, and he did not see
the insult, but he was made aware
of something by the silence which
followed. However, before he could
know what had happened, young
woman's voice said to the butler:
Wont you find that bonbon which
Mrs. c. dropped? 1 want to look
at it."
One day delighted and awkward
new statesman was taking tea at
the house of clever woman, and
was suddenly plunged into terror,
agony and shame by the humiliation
of the delicate and costly Sevres cup
from which he had been drinking;
but before his palate was dry or his
tongue responsive to the scared
mind, his hostess broke its mate, say
ing to the servant as she did so:
"Never put these cups on the table
again, Smith; they're too brittle for
use"

Theological seminary in the First Con-
grega tional church, and when Presi-
dent DR.. j. H. George, who conferred
the degree, came to Miss Fenshaw he
remarked, with much feeling: This
shows what woman can do"
Florence A. Fensham is native of
East Douglas, Mass. When she was
very young her family moved to AL
bany, n. Y, where she was brought
up. At an early age she showed I'M
usual mental ability. This spirit was
fostered by her parents, who gave her
every possible advantage. In this
country she has been a student at Cor
nell and at Harvard, afterward going
abroad to study in the University of
Edinburgh and afterward studying
theology at Mansfield college, Oxford,
under DR.. Fairbairn.
After completing her course of
study at Oxford, Miss Fensham went
to Constantinople, where she occupied
the chair of biblical literature and
comparative religion in the American
college for girls in this oriental city.

of dean of the college.
This college for girls is the out
growth of high school founded in
Constantinople in 1871 by the woman's
board of missions for 1.-THE thorough
education and Christian culture of
girls in the orient" The growth of
the school was so rapid and its work
so important that the institution was
incorporated as a college by the Iegis-
lature of Massachusetts in 1890 In
1894 an imperial trade was granted the
college by Abdul Hamid H., assuring
its permanency by the official recogni-
ton of it as an educational institution
in the Turkish empire
Miss Fensham has thrown herself,
heart and soul, into her work, in which
she is a great enthusiast.
"The object of our work" she ex-
planned, sis to give the higher Chris
tian education to the oriental women.
Our students number from $50 to 200,
in which Is nationalities are represent
ed, Bulgarian, Armenian, Greek, He
brew, American, English, Turkish, AL
bantam, French, German, Italian, Rus
sian, Hungarian, Roumanian and Aus
tralian. The language of the college is
English, and the facility with which
these eastern girls acquire it is really
remarkab bile"
During the whole period of her
study at the Chicago theological SEM
mary, Miss Fensham held the "high
honor scholarship" which is awarded
to the attainer of 95 per cent. in every
branch of study. 1t is a remarkable
and noteworthy fact, however, that
this scholarship has never before been
bestowed, Miss Fensham being the
first to hold it. She will leave Chicago
in few days for three months rest in
the east before returning to her ardu-
GUS labors in the orient.

Canary Island Scientists Utilities At

OAHaEy lsidn0 scientists tt11Zes Al
mOspherIc Electricity without Chem
ieaIs or DynamOs.
The Las Palmas correspondent of
the London Daily Mail sends a re-
markable account of a great scien-
tific discovery. According to the cor
respondent, the discovery is method
OF directly using atmospheric cleo
tricity without chemicals or dyna-
mos, and practically applying it with
out any motive force. The discoverer
is Clemente Fuegueras, engineer of
woods and forests for the Canary
islands, and for many years professor
of physics at st. Augustine's college,
Las Palmas, and long known as a sci
entific student.
Hitherto he has jealousy guarded
the secret of his labors, fearing that
premature revelation might rob
him of his reward. Even now, while
he claims to have entirely succeeded,
he remains silent concerning the eX-
act principles of his discovery.
He claims, however, to have invent
ed generator which can collect the
electric fluid, to be able to store it,
and to apply it to an infinite number
of purposes; for instance, in connec-
ton with ships, railways and manu-
factories. He says he expects the eff
feet of his discovery will be a ire
mendous economic and industrial rev.
olutiOn. He will not give the key to
his invention, but declares that the
only extraordinary point about it is
that it has taken so long to discover
similar scientific fact.
Prof. Fuegueras is shortly going to
Madrid and Berlin to patent his in
vention. 4 German electrical com
pany is reported to have offered a
large sum for the invention, while a
syndicate in Barcelona has also made
generous offer. Neither advance
spondent adds, is all that it is posi-
BILE to obtain at present. No opinion
can be expressed as to the value OF
the discovery until further details are
known.
The London Mail adds that it has
learned from other sources that Prof
Fuegueras has constructed a rough
| apparatus, by which he obtains a cur
rent of $50 volts, which he utilities il
lighting his house and driving a 20
horse power motor. He is shortly
coming to London with perfected
working apparatus. His inventions
| comprise generator, motor and sort
of governor or regulator. Thi:
| whole apparatus is so simple that &

DR.. Hartman, the Famous Gynacologist
and Inventor of Pe.ru-na Offers to
Treat Women Free During the Sum.
mer Months.

America is the land of nervous
women. The great majority of nerv-
Gus women are so because they are suf-
fering from some form of female dis
ease. By far the greatest number of
female troubles are caused by catarrh.
Women afflicted with pelvic catarrh
despair of recovery. Female trouble
is so common, SO prevalent, that they
accept it as almost inevitable. The
greatest obstacle in the way of recov-
cry is that they do not understand
that it is catarrh which is the source
of their illness. In female complaint,
ninety-nine cases out of one hundred
are nothing but catarrh. Peruna cures
catarrh wherever located.
The following letter was recently
received:

MISS LIZZIE SNEATHING.
All women who are in doubt as to
what their trouble is, should write DR..
