the Chicago Inter Ocean. He poses a.
a flower Doctor" Patients are secured
by securing the streets where house
plants are displayed in the windows
and Offering TO treat those that pre-
sent a faded appearance.
Il see" he says 10 the woman who
comes TO the door, that your plants are
not up TO the mark. Most house plants
have a ragged look In the spring.
Those are very fine plants and 1t would
be a shame TO lose them. With a 1T
tie attention given them before they
are too far gone they can be braced
up and made as vigorous as ever"
Nine times out Of ten the man gains
permission 10 examine the plants. No
body knows just what he does 90 them.
To all appearances he doesn't do much
OF anything. He picks of a yellow
leaf here. punches a twlg there. and
pokes the earth some place else, aud
thus ends the treatment.

CHANGING THE BOUNDARIES
Great Britain Has Men Constantly in
the Field in African Ter
ritory.

Every new edition Of African maDs
SHOWS shlftings of boundary lines be-
tween European possessions. Some
times the boundary is shown on one
sue OF river or mountain range, and
IN the next edition IN the other side II
the boundary Is parallel or a merid-
ian, it may be shown on the later man
SO Tar from it's earlier position that
the change is noticeable even on map
of small scale,
These changes, states the Chicago
Daily News, do not mean that the boun-
daries, as described in treaties. have
been altered, but merely that delimit-
ing commissions in the course of more
accurate surveys ard explorations have
discovered that our previous knowledge
was so far erroneous that the stipulated
boundaries could not accurately be laid
down on the map.
The report of the mixed commission
on the Anglo-German boundary in East
Africa is case in point. In 1890 the
Germans and British agreed that thu
boundary between their possessions
should cross Victoria Nyanza in one de-
gree south latitude and go on to the
Congo State, except that when it reached
Mount Mfumbiro, which Spoke had
placed one degree south of the equator
on his map, it should skirt the mountain
so that it might wholly be included in
the British domain.
The maps accordingly showed the
mountain as British summit till it was
discovered that it really stands far to
the west in the Congo State. and under
existing treaties could not possibly be-
long to Great Britain 1t was found
later that Mfumbiro is about 60 miles
south of the latitude Spoke assigned to
1t, so that, even if his longitude had
been correct, it would have been a Ger
man, instead of a British mountain:
and now come the latest results of the
mixed commission, bringing both glad
and sad news to Great Britain.
The Kagera river, the largest affluent
Of Victoria Nyanza, and the ultimate
source of it's waters, has been assigned
on all maps since the treaty of 1890 to

mission has decided that the lower
fourth of this river, from the point where
it turns sharply east to the lake, is north
of the boundary line; so the only part
of the river offering excellent facilities
for navigation is now proved to belong to
Great Britain.
But what the British have gained in
the south they have lost in the west, for
the boundary surveyors have found that
long strip that the maps have included
in Uganda is really in the Congo State
For years we have seen the eastern wa
tiers of Albert Edward Nyanza tapping
alleged British territory, but now we are
told that every drop in the lake belongs
to the Congo domain; and we expect fur
Their revelations of this sort until crude
surveys are replaced by the scientific

A WOMAN ROBINSON CRUsoE,
Romance and Hardship of a French
Girl Exile on a Lone
Island.

Off the coast Of Newfoundland lies
small island known as the Isle of
Demons, which holds within it's rocky
shores romance as thrilling and a
tragedy as real as any told in fiction.
says Youths Companion. About 1910
Marguerite de Roberval, niece of the
French viceroy, fell in love with e
young cavalier and promised him her
heart and hand. Her uncle, the vice.
roy, considered the youth unworthy of
his niece's proud position, and angered
by her refusal to give up her lover, he
passed a sentence of exile upon both
of them. A vessel carried the couple
to the Isle of Demons, leaving them
there alone, with an old nurse who at
tended the lady Marguerite from her
childhood, and who wished to share
her exile.
At first the Punishment did not seem
so dreadful thing; the young mans
strength stood between his wife and
suffering, and for two years all went
well. A child was born, and the par
ents began to plan for the establish
ment of colony which might thrive
in this island home. Then came trou-

Disease smote the little family. and
the young wife and mother saw her
husband, child and faithful nurse all
sicken. and die. With her own hands
she dug their graves and buried all
that was dear to her; and then began
a life alone. life in which the mere
question of existence became a prob
lem hard indeed for a frail woman to
solve. BY means Of the gun that had
been her husbands, she kept herself
provided with food and with skins for
her clothing. -
For two years she lived q Robinson
