FLOWER AND TREE.

Planting few trees every fall or
spring, as may be convenient, keeps up
the supply of fruit
The American persimmon makes a
handsome tree ornamentally consider
ed. 1t has dark green leaves that re-
main on late in the fall.
Carnations do not thrive in the shade
and will not tolerate the presence OF
rank manure They are easily grown
in any good garden soil.
One secret of getting flowers from
potted plants is to let them get pot
bound When a plant can no longer
keep on growing, it turns it's energies
toward producing flowers.
By yearly attention to pruning and
by good feeding shrub may be re-
newed from season to season and kept
always strong Old and weak wood
should always be removed.
Ammonia is plant stimulant, not a
food. While it is useful to force plants
into bloom and growth after the soil is
exhausted, a fertilizer must be applied
or the plant will use up it's own vital
ity in bloom.

Ant,outty of the Boomerang.

The boomerang, the Australian ma
tive's weapon of offense and defense,
referred to in all reference works as an
instrument unknown until after the
discovery of Australia, was doubtless
known before the time of Christ. Pliny
the elder, a contemporary of our Sa-
viour, writes as follows in his Natural
History respecting an instrument
made of the wood of the aquifolia:
eff staff made of this wood. when
thrown at an animal, from want of
strength in the person throwing falls
short of the mark, it will come back
toward the thrower of its own accord,
SO remarkable are the properties of
that tree
It is altogether probable that the
learned Pliny did not consider the
shape Of the ''staff'' and referred its pc
culiarities to the nature of the wood of
which it was made.

hest and Worst.

els this the best wurst you can send

edible in her hand.
Madam" answered the meat man,
cit is the best wurst we have"
swell, it is the worst wurst l ever
saw"
II am sorry to hear that. The best
I can do is to try and send you some
better wurst from today's lot; but, as
said, that is the best wurst we have
at present | am sure, however, that
the wurst we are now making will not
be any worse than this, and it ought to
be better. I assure you that as soon as
I get the wurst you shall have the best
of it. We never gave any one the
worst of it so long as we have been in
the wurst business, and you may be
sure that when we give you your wurst
it will be the best, for our worst wurst
is better wurst than the best wurst Of
our competitors"
But the lady, whose eyes had taken
on a stare of glassiness. was seen to
throw up her hands and flee from the
place, for she was afraid the worst was
yet to come.-Baltimore American.

NapOIeOn's Temper,

A story is told of sudden rage into
which Napoleon l. fell one day as he
was at dinner. He had scarce partaken
of mouthful when apparently some
inopportune thought or recollection
stung his brain to madness, and, reced-
ing from the table without rising from
his chair-his small stature permitted
that-he uplifted his foot-dash went
the table, crash went the dinner, and
the emperor sprang up, intending to
pace the room. Quick as a flash his
waiter scratched few magic symbols
on bit of paper, and the emperor s
check had grown more than double.
Napoleon appreciated the delicacy of
his attendant and said, THANK you,
my dear Dunand," with one of his in
imitable smiles. The hurricane had
blown over.

Paris has been described as a gigan-
tic mousetrap with three doors labeled,
respectively, hotel, cafe and restaurant.
The city has about 10000 hotels. There
are restaurants in every block, and you
can find cafes at almost every step.
At almost any restaurant you are sure
of good cooking. You can eat we'll any
where and at any price. There are
scores of places where the meals cost
as high as in the better restaurants of
New York and hundreds where you
can get very fair dinner for so cents,
or, if you would have wine, for 10
cents additional. There is one stock
company which does an enormous bust
ness in supplying cheap and good food
for Parisians. It was founded by a
butcher who has his shops still in diff
ferent parts of the city. This company
has 100 or more restaurants where you
can always be sure of good service and
good food. You pay for what you eat
and pay for everything, but the prices
are low
