Rust in wheat may he prevented by
destroying the spores in the seed. one

of copper in ten gallons of hot water,
allowing the seed to remain in the solu
ton twenty-four hours, then drying the
seed with fine land plaster and sowing

seed procured II should also be plant

which wheat was grown last Year.

Mica and isinglass are not at all the
same, though the names are sometimes
confused. Mica is 4 transparent min
eral, capable of being clcaved into elas-
tic plates of extreme thinness. 1t Is
transparent and is used like glass in
lanterns and the doors of stoves. Its
power Of resisting heat makes it much
better than glass for stove doors. lsin-
glass is n substance consisting chiefly
Of gelatin. 1t is prepared from the
sounds Of air bladders of certain fresh
water fishes. The best deposits of
mica in the United States are in the
mountains of North Carolina. In the
Black Hills of Dakota mica is found
near tin ore, but its presence Is not an
indication of gold.

A story is told of Il priests expert
ence in n small New England town.
The clergyman was just about to re-

knock ut his door. He called Come

said rather shamefacedly:
Father, there is a girl outside. May
l bring her in?"
Assent having been given, he disap-
peared for a moment and returned with
a white woman and informed the scan
dalized priest that they wished to be
married.
He was shown the door with prompt
ness. and the girl was severely admon-
ished on the course she was pursuing.
Fifteen minutes later there was an
other knock. and on opening the door
the priest found himself again face to
face with the would be colored bride
groom.
With great indignation. the priest
said:
Il thought I sent you about your
business before!"
The darky paraIyzed him with this
reply:
Yes. | know you did, Father James,

we thought maybe you would look at

preferably as hot as it can be slipped,

lions that lave accumulated in the

through every large town within 500

"Just notice that towns like Cincin-

to appear only a few miles apart. and
