The following is the correspondence

General Grants Nnmesake.

A number of years ago a son was
born to colored woman in the south,
and as he was her first she looked up
on him with pride and was much at a
loss to find d name for him. Relatives
and friends, including her mistress.
We're appealed to; but, although many
names We're suggested, all were dis
carded.
After many days Of deliberation she
said one morning to her mistress: "Miss
Mary, I'ze found name for my boy.
I'm going to name him Delicious"
"Why," said the lady, "where did you
get that name"
"Oh," she cried, "I'm going to call
him that cause l want to name him
for Mr.. Grant"
When it was explained to her that
the great hero was named Ulysses and
not Delicious, she was somewhat dis
turbed III mind, but Ulysses did not
please her, so the boy had to begin life

Dr.. Kellogg continues: Iii Germany

brandy freely with the cold bath. The
unwisdom Of this practice will be ap-

cone purpose in administering the
cold bath is to secure q true stimulant
or tonic effect by arousing the vital
energies through cNcitation of the

and was used for this purpose in ty

time, however. it is We'll known, and
with practical unanmity admitted,
that alcohol is neither a tonic nor
stimulant, but narcotic; that it de-
presses and does not excite; that it
lessons and does not increase the &C.
tivity Of the nerve centers. and that
this is true Of small as we'll as large

ORCHARD AND GARDEN.

Give the roots of trees a deep and
oroad bed Of soil to start and grow in.
In pruning the grape cut back to the
third bud, as it is usually the first en-
tirely perfect bud produced.
When winds prevail from any direc-
ton, as they usually do, lean the tree a
little in that direction when setting out
The essentials in making good gar
den are rich soil, plenty Of manure,
good seeds, timely labor and fair sea-
son.
Having the soil in a good tilth and
planting in straight rows will save
much labor in cultivating in the gar
den.
One Of the best ways of getting rid OF
moss and lichens adhering to the bari
of trees is an application of lime white
wash.
In taking trees from nursery or for
est. preserve ali of the roots and fine
rootlcts possible. Dig out instead OF
pulling up the tree.
When the fruit or leaves of any plant
or tree are eaten by insects of any kind,
spraying in good season and sufficient
ly often is the safest and best remedy.
Gladiolus bulbs should be planted in
full sunshine. four or five inches deep
and about one foot apart. Good soil,
rather sandy, is best, avoiding manure,
especially if fresh.

II sliced onion and carrot are COOK
ed with veal, it will be found that the
flavor of the rather tasteless meat is
much improved. Veal outlets rely for
their flavor on the tomato sauce that
Is usually served with them.
A delightful flavor is sometimes giy

q bath of oil and vinegar. In the morn

enough of the mixture has been alb

If in making split pea soup teacup-
