FLOWER AND TREE.

Palms never live more than $50 years.
Ivy has been known to live 450, chest
nut $50, oak 1,600 and yew $3.50 years.
Nothing is better for house plants
than to be set out in gentle. warm
rain, but a cold rain and wind are any
thing but hopeful to them.
In planting trees an important point
not to be forgotten is pressing the soil
down upon the roots so that they will
come in close contact with it.
A pot of flowers in bud should re-
ceive all the sunshine possible, but
when the buds open keep them in
shade, and they will last longer.
The largest apple tree in New Eng
land is in Cheshire. Conn. Its trunk
measures one foot above all root eX-
largeHents, Is feet s inches in circum-
ference.
An orchard, whether young or old,
should not be allowed to grow where
heavy crops of grass are taken every
year. 1t is weakening to the soil and
detrimental to the trees
In Ashanti there grows a tree resem-
bling i'll appearance the English oak,
whcl! furnishes excellent butter. This
vegetable butter keeps in perfect CON
dition all the year round in spite of the
heat.

THE FASHIONS.

In skirts for street wear or visiting
the narrow tablier effect is noticed
Kimonos with yoke effect are as
comfortable as the looser ones and
more becoming to the average woman.
A new yelling is the scroll effect on
a hair line mesh. Between the scrolls
there are black dots of silk or chenille
Many of the lightest muslin costumes
are finished at the waist with a ribbon
which has the flowing ends at the back
Knotted at short intervals.
1t is the fad of the moment to put
touch of lace trimming on every article
of clothing, and up to date stockings
have lace insertion finish woven in
the design.
Lace collars and cuffs, which give a
pretty finish to any waist, now come
in sets, consisting usually of a high
neck collar, a sailor or round shaped
collar and wide cuffs to match.
A new and dainty effect in floral
garniture consists of rosebuds formed
of the palest shade of rose colored
chiffon. These are small in size and
worn in clusters on all sorts of light
boas and hats.-New York Tribune.

The Indian sages do not practice
their breathing exercises simply for
the sake Of repose and sleep. During
the inbreathing energy is increased.
These Indians are not the only people
who believe that with the inbreathing
of pure air there comes something still
more vital than oxygen. But the Indi-
ans have developed the art of breath
ing more than any other people.
One of their favorite exercises is to
inhale through the left nostril, to hold
the breath for time and then eXhale
through the right nostril.
Another of their exercises is to drink
water through the nostrils, and after it
has been retained for a short time it is
expelled through the nostrils and the
mouth. This is said to cool the head

PlTH AND POINT.

1t is very serious matter-the max
ing of plain living.
Every one likes to look at himself
just a little in the looking glass.
We all talk about our fairness, but
all of us are too apt to ride free
horse too hard.
A very hardworking man in a dress
suit somehow resembles an old plug
horse with sleighbells on.
When man has suit in court, he
always believes that the witnesses on
the other side swear to one lie after
another.
When you do foolish thing, you say
to yourself, "The people won't notice
it." But they will notice it; they al
ways do.
Unless a woman gets out a jugger-
naut car occasionally and rides over
her husband and all his kin her own
relatives complain that she lacks prop
or spirit. "-Atchison Globe.

FARMER JOE'S SPEECH.



"You may get the better of an oppo-
nent in debate" said an old time ora
tor, "by sheer force of convincing argu-
ment-that is to say, you may score
and win on points-but if you want to
put your man down and out at single
coup just make him ridiculous. Only
succeed in doing this, and all the logic
of the other side will explode in vacan-
cy like so many blank cartridges.
"Once when l was serving term up
the state in the legislature a bumptious
youngster who had just been introduc-
ed was laboring through his maiden
effort He was attacking man who
was his senior by at least a score and
ten years and thought to make hit by
referring to him as that little gray
beard from Herkimer.' Rymal of Mag
ara rose to reply. He was an old timer
who never spoke unless he had some
thing to say and so Was always sure of
an attentive audience. Farmer Joe, as
he was called got up slowly, gradually
expanded himself to his full height of
tails of a capacious and somewhat
shabby frock coat, held up the index
finger of his right hand, cleared his
throat ominously and solemnly began:
"'Mr. Speaker, the honorable gentle
man who has just spoken has never
read Pope's essay. If he had, he would
remember that the "soul's the standard
of the man" And, sir, fifty such souls
as that of the honorable gentleman
who preceded me could be put into the
skull of flea and have as much room
there as two frogs in Lake Superior
lie didn't have to say more. The
chamber went into a convulsion of
laughter which lasted for several min
utes after the tall farmer had resumed
his seat. AS for the youngster, he did
the best he could. He wriggled about,
got red in the face, tried to look uncon-
cerned and kept his mouth closed dur
ing the balance of the session. New

Growing Bananas,

Bananas are as a rule planted out
Systematically in rows, the suckers"
being placed at an average of ten feet
apart. The banana plant bears only
one bunch at time, but it is a quick
grower, yielding its fruit in twelve to
fourteen months. When the plant is
about six months old, second suck
er" or shoot is allowed to spring from
the root, third after the ninth month,
and so on, so that after the first year
there is a continuous crop being reaped.

A Financial Puzzle.

Here is problem in finance which
we submit to those of our readers who
are always inclined for an argument
on the money question:
A banker sauntering home saw
i've pound note lying on the curbstone
or course he picked it up and took the
number in order to find the owner.
While at home his wife remarked that
the butcher had sent in bill for meat
amounting to f5. The only money ha

had with him was the money he had
found, which he gave her, and she paid
the butcher. The butcher paid it to
a farmer for Il calf, and the farmer
paid it to the merchant. who in turn
paid it TO the washerwoman, and she,
owing the banker note of IS, went
to the banker and paid her note. The
banker recognized the note as the one
he had found and which up to that
time had settled EDS of debt. On a
more careful consideration he found
the note counterfeit.
Now, will some of our financial
friends tell us what has been lost. in

body?-London Telegraph.

Fans In shnkespearc's Time.

Fans in Shakespeare's time seem to
have been composed of ostrich and 9th

in one of the later figures of the ger
man they now carry fans. According
to an old manuscript in the Ashmolean
museum, Sir Edward Cole rode the cir

several outside cities, such as Rochest-

devices. Not only were the results OF
the voting made known Immediately
after the closing of the polls, but there
were no errors. The voter could not
fail to cast his ballot according TO his
convictions. except in the event Of his
being unable 10 read, and there We're
no ballots thrown out, Neither was
there any counting cut. In every Sc
