The question OF the influence OF the
stock on the graft and vice versa has
been much discussed. The experiments
recorded by NJ. l.. Guignard in the
"Comptes Rendus" were made with "a
view of discovering whether there is
any migration OF chemical substances
from the one to the other. Plants rich
I'm compounds OF hydrocyanic acid were
chosen as this is easy TO detect. IL was
found that when a plant containing a
hydrocyanic %glucoside is grated on one
destitute of IL, or inversed, there is no
passage OF this substance from the one
to the other. The general conclusion
seems TO be that grating is a sort OF
artificial symbiosis in which each
species retains it's individuality.

Fifteenth Annual

The Fifteenth Annual Ball of the
Ely Fire Department at the Turf
Hall Wednesday evening was most
assuredly one of the best it has
ever been the pleasure of this de-
partment, noted for its fine annual
dances, to give its patrons.
From the time the first strains of
WagneT's Orchestra enticed the
hall frlll of people to exercis their
pedals; until the last strains at 4 a..
m. the interest was intense and
many were 10th to leave at this
early hour. The music was good
and the exceptionally large crowd
was imbued with a Thanksgiving
spirit. En- joyment was the feature
of the even ing. The hall had been
most artist cally decorated.
At midnight a most palatable
turkey su PIPER was served at the
Exchange Hotel. Taken all in all
the ball wi tn the supper was one of
the best it has been the pleasure
of Ely pei ,ple to participate in.

AN exchange says that the men
who do town more harm than
good may be classed as follows:
First, those who oppose improve
ment; second, those who run it
down to strangers; third, those who
never advertise their business;
fourth, those who distrust public
spirited men; fifth, those who show
no hospitality to anyone; sixth,
those who hate to see others make
money; seventh, those who oppose
every movement that dosen't orig
mate with themselves; eighth,
those who put on long faces when
stranger speaks of locating in
their town; ninth, those who op-
pose every public enterprise which
does not appear of personal benefit
to themselves. There are some
men born with the idea that it is
their job to grease the axle of the
world and keep the old gal" in
running order but somehow when
they shuttle off there is not the
slightest culver and in fact the
mourners usually have a grin on
their faces.

waiting to burst through and make
the scarf" His hand shook VIC
lently.
Barker was no coward. 1t was. all
over with him, as he thought, but
with superhuman effort he steadied
himself.
"Say, Files" he said, quietly.
"You think it's the bright red and
soft white that are so attractive, but
it isn't anything of the kind. The
most delightful sensation is to feel
the warm blood flowing over your
own skin, not somebody else's. Did
you ever try it %
''No," said Files, duly; cit hurts
too much"
"No, it doesn't. You simply draw
the razor across your own throat
enough to start a few drops. You
know what the professor said yester-
day about pain and pleasure being
akin. 1t is the tickling small pain
which creates the intense thrill of
delight"
Slowly the poor maniac lifted the
razor and carried it doubtfully to-
wards his own throat as if to try the
suggestion. 1t was supreme chance.
and Barked leaped upward, catching
the arm of the mad student before
he could recover from his surprise.
A great gush of blood flooded Bark
er's face, binding his eyes; for in his
effort to escape he had unwittingly
forced the sharp blade across the
throat of Files, cutting it from ear
to ear. Ere Barker could wriggle
entirely out of his chair the mailman
had fallen on him tearing ferociously
at his throat with his teeth. The
struggle was over in a moment and
when the door was thrown open by
an excited crowd attracted by the
noise both men lay inert upon the
floor, one of them dead.
When Barker recovered from his
swoon and told the story of his
dreadful experience he was believed
and justified by all but he has never
been ahle to quite satisfy his con-
science on a single point connected
with his "close shave" as he calls
it, with poorly assumed lightness !:
'Was he morally responsible for the
tragedy that cost the life of Razzin
Files because Of that last suggestion
he made to him." 1t Is query that
constantly recurs to him and dis
turbs his dreams.

which accompanied it completed his
Generalization.
''You see it," said Files, with a
hard and mirthless laugh.
l"See what?" Barker managed to
utter.
'You see it in my eyes! You know
what it meansr" and there appeared
in the black orbs look which haunt
ed Barker for many month after
ward. He had never seen an insane
man. He had never seen murder in
carnate in the human eye, but he
recognized it now and could not
utter word for the beating of his
heart.
'Do you know" said Files, with
confidential air, 'what a strange
affinity there is between shining,
beautiful hard steel and white, soft
flesh? For Gods sake, don't get
pale that way; it only makes your
skin winter -
