Floating Gardens in Mexico.

Aboriculture: While the City OF
Mexico is 5000 feet higher than sea
level, there are in the vicinity several
lakes and marshy tracts which require
extensive drainage operations. The
Viga canal Is one Of these great drain
age systems and upon it are numerous
barges which transport farm and gar
den produce from the market gardens
to the city. Flat-bottcmed boats, pro-
PEELED by pole, convey passengers to
The floating gardens.
The gardens are located upon marsh
land quite similar to the tule lands Of
California. The soil is composed of de-
cayed reed and grass roots, being en-
tirely Of vegetable mold and quite
fertile. bitches at frequent intervals
drain the gardens and furnish means
Of communication by canoes and small
boats to the larger canal, and thus to
the city. Here are the great market
gardens, where vegetables are grown
for Mexicos consumption. Here, too,
are grown the magnificent flowers
which form one Of the principal at
fractions of Mexico City, the flower
market being wonder in the quantity
and exquisite beauty both OF the indi-
vidual tropic flowers and the magnifi-
cent floral forms, which are made with
great taste and skill. Street cars also
connect the city with the villages upon
the viga canal. and they are well pa

CURIOUS JAcK.lN-ARMoR.
His Duty 10 to Announce the Com.
mencement Of Church Service.

meHcemenS OF ChUrcn Servieo.
London Queen: Several of the old
towns on the Suffolk. England, coast
can boast Of a JACKPOT armor. One OF
the best is at Southwold. that quaint,
old-fashioned seaside resort. now try
Ing to burst from it's chrysalis stage
into a fashionable butterfly seaside re-
sort
Some years ago the jack used to stand
outside the church on bracket over
the western arch, and as each hour
came round on the clock he struck his
hatchet against the bell to announce the
time. The poor old jack of carved oak
weathered many a storm outside the
building, until some wise person, seeing
that he was being gradually worn
away, suggested his being preserved
inside the edifice.
The Southwold ack-in-armor Is a
curious looking parsonage. He stands
about three feet high, and at the pres
cnt moment holds an exalted position
near the beautifully carved and painted
old screen. He is perched well on high,
so he can be seen by most of the con-
grestaion, to whom he now announces
Che commencement of the service.

his arm begins to move up and down
striking the bell as it does so with
jacks Ratchet. placed for the purpose
beside the figure. He makes a con-
siderable noise, and strangers in the
congregation are somewhat startled at
SO unusual disturbance If not pre-
pared beforehand.
The interesting little figure is painted
dark green, relieved here and there
With gold His 6reSc fs of arr,Or and
he wears big gauntlet gloves. In the
left hand he holds sword. His helmet
comes down we'll over his brows, and
his ears are protected by the projecting
sidepieccs. He does not aspire to
vizor, but his helmet is studded with
big nails. He has nice kindly face,
little fiattended at the nose and
mouth thorugh long ages, for even
wooden jacks win not wear forever. AT
one time many of the Suffolk churches
boosted a jack, but today these queer
little gentlemen are rare.

A PROMINENT CHURCH WORKER SAYS

and Useful.
A woman confined to the house for
several years with n chronic female
arrangement had finally given up hope
of being cured.
She had tried physician after ply
stefan, and remedy after remedy, with
out any permanent improvement.
Her treatment had cost her husband,
who was a poor man, hundreds of dol
lars. They had been obliged to deny
themselves many comforts of life in
order to get money enough to pay the
physicians.
The woman had become weak. nervous
and wretched, and scarcely able to keep
| out of her bed. Her children were
growing up neglected and ragged. be-
cause of the want of :, mothers care
Her husband was becoming discouraged
and broken down with Overwork
Picking up the paper one day she hap
pened to read an item which continued
the news that DIR. Hartman would treat
such cases free of charge by letter. She
Immediately wrote the doctor. describing
her case, and giving him all her symp.
toms.
She soon received letter telling her
exactly what to do. and what medi-
cines and appliances to get. She began
the treatment (the principal remedy be-
ing Peruna) Mt once, and i'll few weeks
she was we'll and strong again, able to
do her own work.
This offer OF free home treatment to
women is still open to all who may need
the services of this eminent physician;
All letters applying for treatment will
be promptly answered. and be held
strictly confidential.

There was a very little of the Douk-
