Land is not SO valuable that an acre
or two can not be devoted to artificial
adornment.
1t is the rule of life to provide first
for necessities, then for comforts and
finally for pleasures. Most of our
country is too new to permit of much
attention being given to landscape
gardening. The efforts of the people
have been directed to the acquiring
of lands and buildings. The illustra-
lions given herewith are intended to
offer suggestions for improving the

was first suggested to me some years
ago by DR.. Weir Mitchell, namely, the
combining of the two greatest pow
ers of modern times-real religion and
genuine science-in order to bring
them to bear on person at one and
the same time.
in this work we accept the Chris
tian religion as revealed in the New
Testament. With that we combine
the best scientific help that is obtain
able in the medical profession and H.
abnormal psychology"
To DR.. Worcester religion means
something very real, and he believes
that the church should seek to bring it
to meet the vital needs of mankind.
In his conception of the duties of a
minister toward his flock there is
nothing of vagueness, nothing of aloof-
ness.

we at Emmanuel are doing for people
that Is different from what every
faithful minister tries to do.
I'VE have method that most other

modern method of constructing bat

FLEAS In THE HOUSE

Although tieas pass all their adult
life on the animals attacked by them,
and are thus loosely termed parasites
in that stage, the early or larval
stages are passed in altogether differ
ent surroundings. The female usual
ly lays it's eggs in the bed or lair of
the animal that it infests, and the
larvae that hatch from them within
two or three days are very minute,
white, worm-like creatures, without
eyes or legs, that live on dry animal
Custer County Republican. (Broken Bow, Neb.) 1882-1921, 1908-02-20

sponsible for the infestation, they can
be made use of to reduce it, using the
preference of the fleas for such ami
mails as the lure. First wash the ami.
NAL with carbolic soap to destroy all
the insects then infesting it-dogs are
easier to wash than cats, and the lat
ter may be thoroughly busted with
fresh pyrethrum well rubbed into the
fur instead-then allow the animal to
run throughout the infested part of
the house for "a hours; wash or dust
again to destroy the new infestation,
and continue this until all the adults
have been trapped and destroyed.
Meanwhile clean thoroughly all the in
tested rooms and remove every ac-
emulation of organic matter that
might possibly serve as breeding place
for the larvae. Floors should be
scrubbed or mopped, and then, after
they are dry, gasoline should be run
under baseboards to kill larvae and
pupae. In the infested laboratory ten
gallons We're used in two days, but
at the end of that time there were
mighty few fleas left and no larvae
remained to provide for a new supply
The flea larvae seem to require un.
disturbed conditions for their proper
development, hence they never multi
ply greatly, il at all, in rooms or
places that are frequently cleaned
swept or disturbed.
The bed, box or other resting place
of the house dog or cat should be
cleaned or shaken out and exposed to
the sunlight at least once in ten days
and better once q week.

cottage. The medical profession is be-
ginning to understand the value of a
sound psychological method and is
freely employing it. And just as soon
as clergymen understand it's value
they also will do so.
The great defect in the church at
the present time is that it's relations
to is people are too conventional, and
that it is satisfied with doing far too
little.
1T is perfectly absurd that churches
worth millions of dollars should be idle
all the week. while many people, need
ing help, pass by only to find the doors
locked and bolted, and displaying an
undertaker's sign telling them where
to go if they want to be buried"
DR.. Worcester's main concern is not
with death and what lies beyond it,
He is not a Baedeker of the hereafter
Life is his province the living his
study. And being not only a devout
minister, but a sensible thinker, he has
placed his position as a helper to
mankind on as practical basis as
possible.
1t must be borne in mind that what
raises the work done at Emmanuel far
above all similar work in the past is
that the workers are imposing no new
dogmas on their patients, and that
they are combining their efforts with
sound scientific help. AS far as the
actual method of treatment is con-
cerned, it includes nothing that is
startling new.
1t is based on three agencies: Moral
re-education, waking suggestion and
hypnosis. This last, however, is en-
ployed only in the treatment of small
groups of disorders, such as alcohol.
ism, fixed ideas, etc, and then only
under from which he is suffering Be-
sides, patients are made to pray. Re-
ligion is made real to them. Faith,
the underlying basis fthe work at
Emmanuel, is constantly held up to
them.
An interesting phase of the work is
the treatment of childish weaknesses
and errors. DR.. Worcester and his as
sistants have found that these can be
corrected by simply addressing chill
dren when they are sound asleep in
bed at night, This can best be done,
according to him, by an intelligent
father or mother, as a strangers voice
might awaken and startle the child.
In this way the Emmanuel workers
have treated all sorts of childish
troubles with marked success.
