and partially cover it with soil
but allowing the tip to be above
ground. They viii root better
if twisted until the bark is
broken or hacked with a knife
at the point where covered with
the earth. These layered plants
may be taken up next fall or
spring.
Desirable trees to get from
nurseries would be elm, pin oak,
laurel-leaf oak, hardy or western
catalpa, Norway maple and Car
DINA poplar; good shrubs would
include the Tartarian or bush
honeysuckle, mock orange, Jap
anese ounce, lilac, golden bell,
bridal wreath, barberry,
weigelia, the deutzias and spir-
cas-.
Trees and shrubs are often
killed by exposing the roots to
sun and wind before planting.
Protect with gunny sacks. All
trees and shrubs, Immediately
upon coming from the woods or
nursery, should be unpacked
and ''heeled in" by placing in a
shallow trench ana covering the
roots thoroughly with moist
earth.
Plant trees at the same depth
at which they grew originally.
Shrubs may be set an inch or
two deeper than they grew. In
setting, the roots should be
shortened back to from six to
ten inches in length and allowed
to spread out in a natural posi-
ton. Loose earth should first
be thrown in and with the hands
forced under the roots as well
as over them; pack occasionally
by tramping down.
Trees and shrubs will have to
be hoed ana watered occasionally
during the first two summers al
least. Trees may be mulched by
throwing around them a layer OF
grass or leaves four to six
inches deep.
Trees should be set about the
front of buildings and along the
borders of the yard; but never
in such a position as to interfere
with the play grounds. Shrubs
should be set in masses wher
ever possible, rarely singly, anC
never in rows. There should b'
a mass of shrubbery in every an
gle of the building. Corners o
the yard, particularly in front
should be planted to shrubs. Tht
best place for planting flower:
would be along the shrubberl
borders. They could be mucl
more easily kept there than il
formal beds and with the gooC
background furnished by thu
shrubbery would present a mor'
beautiful picture than if planted
by themselves.
If a few vines are desired, Vir
ginia Creeper, bitter-sweet
trumpet vine and cross vim
may be found growing wild
Cultivated vines would includ.
the japanese honeysuckle ant
the wisteria.

Laxative for
Women Free

There is a great difference in the
purposes to which a laxative should
be put. Tablets and pills. salts, etc,
are usually violent purgatiyes or
cathartics, and altogether too power
full for the average person.
A woman at al times needs only
a mid hxative-in fact none other Is
needed By y weak or strong though
they may be, for the object is simply 10
move the bowels. and If a gentle laxative
will do it. what is the use OF a violent
one?
Or. Caldwel's Syrup Pepsin has earned
a well-deserved vogue among women and
children and old folks-people who must
necessarily be careful Of what they take.
II is a liquid laxative tonic and ad-
mittedly the greatest stomach. liver and
bowel remedy before the American people.
The price is only so cents or 81 a bottle.
as il comes In both sizes. and all drug
gists sell II. It's pleasant taste and gentle
action make It an ideal remedy for women
in constipation. torpid liver, sour stom-
ach, sick headache, heartburn and such
like digestive complaints. Its use for a
short time viii remove the trouble
tirely so that future medication will be
unnecessary. Its tonic properties build up
the stomach and intestinal muscles so
that they act naturally again. That this
is so is the experience of many heads OF
families, like Mrs. Brannan, Of Alvarado.
Va, Mrs. X. i. Stout, OF Louisville, KY.
and numerous others; in fact, way out in
Williams, Cal. as Mrs. J: e. Blackmore.
OF that place, writes, the whole town
seems to be using IL.
n the remedy Is new to you and you
want to make a trial Of II before buying.

B AND REWARD

LABOR AMI REWARD.
The two pictures showing the great teams
and the high grade ore sacked and stored
in vaults, represent the labor and reward
Of mining on the desert. These great freight
teams are not 80 commonly seen now as a
few years ago before the railroads were
built, but they are still traversing the desert
to distant mines, returning with ore for the
mills and shelters. tn ore vaults are In use
every day, however, but it Is more the GUS
tom to build the vaults In the lower work
ings Of the mines, where the rich ore Is
sacked and stored until . shipment is ready.
MINING CAMP RESORTS.
Goldfeld Is the one place in the country
where the ''tiger'' preys on the community
day and night, unmolested. The gambling
and dance houses are among the largest and
most snowy Of any In the country. There are
several large "gentlemen's'' resorts in
0oldfeld, one Of which has q daily payroll
Of $500, two others Of $500, and several from
$500 to $500 per day, 80 that these saloons
and gambling houses distribute not less than
5000 per day among employees. As they
pay large dividends, II Il easy TO see how

The picture in the center and the two above it,
vividly illustrate the progress made in Goldfeld dur
ing the past four years. aolddeld has not entirely
outgrown the old dug-out, cabins and shacks, for
many Of them are still in use. But as the town and
camp p~rospered and gave indications of permanency
people began to plan to live with all the comforts
obtainable. The old dugouts, cabins made Of tin
cans and bottles, are still in evidence, however, to
remind one of the vicissitudes of the early pioneers.

HINTS OF THE FARM.

No place on the farm is too good for the garden.
 Good seed on poor soil is making poor use of good thing.
 Have tomatoes, radishes and sum- mer squashes in abundance.
 Don't be afraid of putting too much manure on the garden ground.
 Butter unfit for table use can hard ly be regarded as fit for cooking.
 The radish is one of the favorite vegetables, and it is .one of rather easy cultivation.
 The best place to start with the farm garden is on the most productive spot of ground on the farm.
 Dust the climbing roses with sul- phur early in the morning, while the dew is on, to prevent mildew.
 A hard crust over the soil prevents the rain and heat from entering. AL ways keep the surface of the soil loose.
 If the bean poles are short and the vines are pinched off when they reach the top the beans will mature earlier
 If the cabbage root maggot is at work fit piece of tarred paper close about the base of the plants. It will help.
 The radishes are divided into two classes, by their season, summer or winter. and are of many shapes and color.
 It is not possible to make the farm gardening too intensive. The richer the ground the tenderer and better the vegetables.
 Spraying the COWS will discourage the flies and keep up the milk supply, Too much trouble? Well, trouble of tbis kind usually pays big.
 The garden should be near the house and surrounded with a good woven wire netting fence to keep out fowls and other garden pests.
 IT the garden must of necessity be on a stiff, clayey soil, mix all the ashes and sand obtainable with it; | they will mellow up wonderfully
 If you grow late maturing crops in [ the peach orchard they will keep the wood growing too late to make them safe for winter. Clean up the ground l this month.

When l Died.

 Upon my word, young lady-or, venerable dame" the lawyer cor rected with halting courtesy, this is a very extraordinary statement. Do you know that you render yourself liable to prosecution for obtaining money under false pretenses when you at tempt to sell tickets on such tale as that?"
 She smiled trustingly. No, sir, did not know that. Indeed, I am only beginning to learn the strange things of your wonderful century-but like them very much. Though my famili- arity with the distaff and spindle, the needle and quill pen will no longer afford me a livelihood, I have an ar- dent longing to learn the sewing ma chine or the typewriter-and become New Woman. 1 am most anxious to resume the life permaturely cut short in 1770. in my eighteenth year, when died from what was erroneously di- agnosed as quinsy. have reason to believe that, had I been properly treated for diphtheria with an anti toxin serum, would have lived to a good old age"
 What Is there to prevent you from doing so now?" asked Woodworth touched and interested immeasurably by his singular client.
 Because my master-for so I must call htm-Mr. Shockton, who brought me from the other world, is determined to send me back I fear that. from mercenary motives, he means to de- materialize me at his very next seance."
 Woodworth hurriedly thought of all known legal processes, but neither habeas corpus, ne exeat, nor any other writ with which he was familiar seemed remedy against the peculiar form of extradition proposed by Shock ton
 Putting on his hat, he exclaimed:
 You sit right there while l inter- view this tyrant, Miss -, beg your pardon?"
 Amy Alright was my name before, g she answered, sweetly.
 Finding the spiritual manager in his improvised office at the hotel the law yer addressed him by name, saying: q warn you to desist from your perse- cution of my client, Miss Amy Alright She is perfectly satisfied with this mundane sphere, as the reporters cal. 1t, and intends to remain here. a shall take steps to enjoin you iron, making her the subject of further ex pertinent"

 A fair young thing, with tender blue eyes, entered Woodworth's office and calmly seated herself. A glance at her portfolio impelled him to seek refuge in the cool brick vault of his neighbor across the passage, Barker, who called himself a banker, but the lady barred the way.
 No" he said, desperately, without waiting to be interrogated, T don't want to subscribe for History of the War nor Lives of the Candidates, nor Picturesque Anything
 But, honored sir," replied the mild, simple and rather simpering young person, T do not ask you to subscribe for anything, unless, indeed, you - would honor me by taking ticket"
 Ticket nothing!" again interrupted Woodworth. I've no leisure for amusements. My time is all taken up with my profession-and science"
 "Ah, that is what drew me hither!" beamed the beautiful girl. T perceived by your sign that you were lawyer, and have heard that you are mem ber-a prominent one-of the Psychi- cal Research society. In one or both capacities think you can do me an inestimable service"
 Woodwork, touched at two vulner- able points, unbent.
 [ You see, kind sir" she continued, 'that I am a materialized spirit. My manager, MT. Shockton, who is stop ping at the hotel-here Is his card called me forth from the spirit world by mistake for Martha Washington. with whom was centemporaneous."
 Woodwork had noticed the antique style and courtly bearing of his love ly visitor.
 He delayed so long in endeavoring to correct his error." she went on, that, instead of remaining in the misty.
