'When the late DR.. Lewis a

geon, was a young medical student
at the College of Physicians and
Surgeons in New York one of the
operating physicians was about to
cut off an Irishman's leg, but before
beginning the operation gave a long
talk to the students on amputation.
The Irishman lay on the operating
table in full possession of his facUl-
ties, and as he listened to the dis
course he grew whittier and winter.
Finally he jumped from the operat-
ing table crying, Get me me

Of the room DR.. Sayre found him
several days later with his knee

promptly cut open the knee, but
saved the leg. One doy he had no

the tow stuAing sticking ont Of an
old horsehair sofa When he called
again he found the wound so much
improved that he reasoned that tow,

not only disinfect a wound, but
would keep it free from pus. This,

Covering for Tree Wounds.

Prof. Fred Cards experience is that
taking all things together, nothing
seems to be better for covering the
wounds made in pruning than com.
mon lead paint, which is closely fol-
lowed by grating wax. The wax il
superior to paint in the matter of
healing, but does not last as well. and
is not so convenient to apply, although
in warm weather, when it works well,
there is little trouble in this regard.
Coal tar is useful in preventing the
wood from checking, but appears to
be a positive hindrancc to healing, so
that, in spite~of the fact that it stays
well, there is little to recommend it.
Pine tar is no aid to healing, being APP
parently trifle detrimental, while it
helps only slightly in the matter of
checking, and does not last well, there.
fore it has nothing to recommend it.
Shellac is a failure. It does not last,
and neither aids the wound in heal
ing nor to any appreciable extent pre-
vents it from checking.

cous membrane, restoring it to its nor.
NAL state, would consequently cure all
these diseases. Catarrh is catarrh
wherever located, whether it be in the
head, throat, lungs, stomach, kidneys,
or pelvic organs. A remedy that will
cure it in one location will cure it in
all locations.
Pernna is such remedy. The Sis
tiers of Charity know this. When ca.
tarrhal diseases make their appear
ance they are not disconnected, but
know exactly what remedy to use.
These wise and prudent Sisters have
found Peruna never-failing safe
guard. They realize that when dis.
ease is of catarrhal nature, Pernna is
the remedy. Dyspepsia and female
weakness are considered by many to
be entirely different diseases-that
dyspepsia is catarrh of the stomach
and female weakness is due to catarrh
of the pelvic organs the Sisters are
fully aware, consequently Peruna is
their remedy in both these very COM
mon and annoying diseases.
If you do not receive prompt and
satisfactory results from the use of
Peruna, write at once to DR.. Hartman,
giving q full statement of your case,
and he will be pleased to give you his
valuable advice gratis.
Address DR.. Hartman, President Of
The Hartman Sanitarium, Columbus,
Ohio.

Hints on Slipping Plants.

In taking slips from plants for root
ing, many persons take off the young
branches from the sides and base of
the stalk, forcing it to expend all it's
energies in sending out new growth
from the top, and the result is a
"scraggy" plant. Try taking your
slips from the very top Of the plant,
leaving all sprouts at the base and
sides of the old stalk, and you will be
surprised to find what nice bushy
plants you will have in a short time.
Geraniums, coleus, begonias and
pelargoniums are benefited by such
pruning. Long branches of wander
ing jew may be put into a bottle of
water and hung behind picture so
that the vines will Irvine about it, maxi
ing pretty decoration while the roots
are forming and the little branches are
starting out along the stem.-Epit-
omist.

The scions having only one eye were
cut through the second knot, in order
to leave the eye protected by a closed
internode. With the scions having
two eyes. the upper cut was made
about an inch above the second bud
eye. Care was taken to prevent the
drying out of the cuttings and after
ward of the CRAFTS.
End-to-end grating, as originated
in France, was practiced in some in
stances. The number of successful
CRAFTS obtained by this method was
low, but those that did unite made ex-
cellent unions. In grating by this
method the ends of stock and scion are
cut at an angle of about 20 degrees and
held in place by piece of galvanized
wire. which is pushed into the pith of
each piece.
The proportion Of successful Cham
pin gratis was slightly greater than
that of the English cleft. The success
full English cleft CRAFTS, however, were
considered superior to the other in
the matter of completeness and
strength of union.
The experiments with two-eyc and
one.syc scions were. on the whole, in
favor OF the use of two eyes.
The difference between callusiny the
graft: in sand and planting them di-
rectly in the nursery as soon as made
was very striking. Those previously
callused produced 81 per cent. of good
unions, while the others produced but
26 per cent. There was also a differ
ence in the growth of the CRAFTS in
favor of those callused in sand.

DIR. Hartman receives many letters
from Catholic Sisters all over the Unit
ed States. A recommend recently re-
ceived from q Catholic institution in
the Southwest reads as follows:
A Prominent Mother Superior Says:
81 can testify from experience to
the efficiency of Pcruna as one of the
very best medicines, and it gives me
pleasure to add my praise to that of
thousands who have used it. For years
| suffered with catarrh of the stomach,
all remedies proving valueless for re-
lief. last spring went to Colorado,
hoping to be benefited by q change OF
climate and while there n friend adj
vised me to try Peruna. After using
two bottles found myself very much
improved. The remains of my old dis
ease being now so slight. ] consider
myself cured, yet for u while intend
to continue the use of Pcruna. / am
now treating another patient with
your medicine. She has been sickwith
malaria and troubled with leucor-
rhna. have not n doubt that a cure
will be speedily effected"

SCIENCE OF GRATING.
Lessons Taught by Some Expert.
Ments with Vines Conducted at
the California Station.

Results of experiments in bench
grating resistant vines have recently
been reported from the California EX-
pertinent station. The experiments
include tests of the relative value of
English and Champin CRAFTS, leaving
two eyes ON the scions and leaving
only one, preliminary callusing in
sand, planting out in the nursery i'm
mediately after grating and callusing
in straw covered with sand. The cut
tings used varied from one-fourth to
one-half inch in diameter, and were
from six to nine inches long. The low
er cut was made through the knot of
the bud and the last internode of the
upper left as long as possible. All the
buds OH the stock were carefully re-
moved, deep cut being made in order
to remove the adventurous buds ut the
base of the main bud.
Scions were prepared in similar
way, except that the buds were left.
