THE SEPARATION.

This is. the dramatic end of the
scorpions summer love idyl. After a
short time she got tired OF him. She
wanted separation, SO she pounced
upon him, killed him and separated
him, limb from limb. Then she
ate him. After all, that wasn't a sep
aration, for her meal brought them
closer together than ever before. In
this way the love affairs Of the scor-
pions always end. But Mr.. Scorpion
is always willing to take chance even

He has planned to leave Portland for
his new field of work Wednesday.
The differences between the pas
tors first sprang into prominence a
short time after they had exchanged
pulpits, according to DR.. Ford, at the
instance of Mr.. Euster. Soon after
the new pastor took up his work at
the Sunnyside church, he promptly
began a campaign for a new church
to cost $4,000.
Disputes Stop Church.
Work had already begun on the
handsome edifice when the harmony
that had previously marked the un-
dertaklng was marred by disputes be-
tween the building committee on one
side, and the Rev. w. B. Hollingshead,
district superintendent, and Mr.. Eus-
ter on the other.
Just when the building was assum-
ing form and was considered half fin
ished, the building committee stop
ped the work on the ground that 1t
was no longer able to collect funds.
No definite charges were made
against anyone. but gossip attempted
to locate the trouble and fix the re-
sponsibility The result was wider
differences and a split that threaten
ed to divide the church into two con-
gregations.
1t was while the Rev. Mr. EusteI
was planning his new church that DR.
Ford, in Pendleton, first made charg.
es that conditions there were not as
Mr.. Euster had represented them tc
him. Superintendent Hollingshead is
said to have collected many letters

cessor at Sunnyside and hindering the

Too Much Pay Taken, Charge.
The misunderstanding between him
and Mr.. Euster arose. so far as he
himself was concerned, DR.. Ford says
in another paragraph of his letter,
from Mr.. Euster's taking full
months pay at Pendleton when he
was entitled to only two weeks pay;
and his denial in Sunnyside that he
had received a full months pay in the
new conference year, and his two ver-
sions of the matter"
In explaining how he has come fin
ally to bring these charges public DR..
Ford implies criticism of Bishop Smith
who, he says refused to give him a
hearing before the Sunnyside board
or a committee of ministers or lay
men, on the charges against him Of in
terfering in the work of the Sunny
side church.
Silence No Longer Required.

for some time, and have given an
swer concerning them to the proper
authorities. but I kept out Of the

THE ROSE BUG.

The larvae of the Rose bug are sell
dom seen because they feed on the roots
of the grasses and other plants and
never do serious damage in that stage.
They occur mostly in light, sandy soils,
and pupate in the spring, the adult bee
ties appearing in the month of June. The
beetles fly great distance in search of
food and settle upon garden or orchard
where they have been scarcely known
before and cause great damage. They
prefer to eat the petals, stamens and
small fruit in flower, but will also attack
foliage. The insect is difficult to COM
bat because of the continuous appear
ance of new individuals for a period
of several weeks. The arsenical poi
sons are too slow in their action, and
contact poisons must be applied too
strong for the plants to kill the in
sects. The only treatment that can be
recommended is to cover small plants,
like choice rose bushes, with mos
quito-bar cloth, leaving no place for
the insects to enter. In other cases
the beetles should be gathered daily
by hand, tossing them into pans or
buckets containing a little coal oil. Such
expensive treatment would not be profit
able with most crops and the insects
must be permitted to take all they want

FLOWERS FOR THE SICK.

Flowers are always a proper, and
nearly always an acceptable present !;
but not all flowers are desirable in a
sick room The odor of some is Of
fensive to the sick and some whose
perfume is grateful in some cases is
offensive in others. The sick person
should be the judge, but even that
very matter often places the sick one
in a delicate position. Suffering is
often endured rather than declare a
beautiful flower brought by a friend
offensive Really the best place for
flowers is just outside the sick room
window, where they are never often
sive, but always suggestive Of the
bright outdoor.

KEEPING CUT FLOWERS.

The following materials have proved
useful in prolonging the life of cut flow
ers; Choral, sugar, limewater, potash,
etherized water, nitrate of potash, kainit,
sulphate of potash, phosphate of am
monia, chloride of calcium glycerine
and alcohol Mineral substances have
been favorable in very weak concentra-
tions--I to Io,ooo-and organic mater
ials have given favorable results in con-
centrations of I to 10 per cent. One of
the conditions which has influenced the
keeping quality of the flowers, has been
the distance of the surface of the liquid
from the base of the flower. Flowers
keep as well when cut as when left on
the plant, providing water is supplied
to the cut stems and putrid fermentation
is prevented.

PLANT LOVE

The love of flowers cannot be too

beginning with the child of tender years
may we hope to get the proper taste
into the community. Every move for
civic betterment would be easier of So
luton had the whole body of children
been somewhat educated along these
lines early in life. The atmosphere of
the schoo1room should tend to educate

MASSING FLOWERS.

There are fashions in the floral world
as surely as in the realm of costume,
though fortunately the freaks and vaga
ries are less bewildering. Just now the
fancy is for massing, and certainly no
more pleasing form could be suggested.
The plan Of planting large plot to
single kind Of flowers is a more effective
bit of landscape work than is possible
with medley of colors and species.
One of the most striking floral fea-
lures near the entrance to Schenley
Park, Pittsburg, is the long bed of scar
let geraniums which line the walk
the length of the great Carnegie Insti
tute, the bright color amid the green
contrasting beautifully with the gray
sandstone building. A variety in color
might have been easily introduced, but it
would have been at the expense OF
simplicity, unity.
The plan may be executed to even bet
ter advantage on small grounds, where
an attempt to grow many varieties is
most unwise. A plot Of naSturtlums, in
yellow, orange and bronze, all these col
ors harmonizing so completely with the
blue green foliage and with each other,
with the yellow Calliopsis, the rich
brown centers of which form pleasing
contrast to the dainty petals, is equally
satisfactory.
A bed of scarlet SALIVA is blaze of
beauty during summer, especially If
planted near a white house, the suns
rays being reflected from it and caus-
ing the plants to grow more luxuriantly
as we'll as to show off to the best adj
vantage. But if you happen to have a
red brick house, avoid scarlet flowers
near it. White, cream, any other color
is preferable.
Select your favorite, and plant it in
abundance. Mass, and cut freely; pat
tern after natures arrangement of her
aster and goldenrod.-Bessie L. Putnam.
Petunias are natives of Central South
America and have been in cultivation
since 1923 when they were first brought
to England The have been improved
and are justly one of the favorites
among ANIMALS, being so easily grown,
such profuse boomers and so delightful
ly fragrant While classed with ANIMALS,
and usually grown as such, the petunia
is really tender perennial like the
geranium. The plants are rank growers
and should be given plenty of room.
If possible, giving them sandy soil,
with plenty Of sunshine and water The
shades of red in this flower are mostly
of magenta or purple red and should
never be planted near a scarlet or
yellow flower If such shades are sur
rounded by white flowers they will be
much more pleasing to the eye.
Each succeeding year has brought
out some new and satisfactory shade
of color, until now we have them for
any purpose or position imaginable.
