STORING CELERY.

Sweet and crisp celery may be kept
on tap for several months by removing
the plants from the ground with a good
supply Of earth on the roots and set
ting them in box in the cellar con
taining four or FIVE inches Of mellow
earth. Care should be taken to moisten
Che roots after the plants are set, and
this may be done by pressing the tops
to one side at the edge, fitting the box,
inserting a piece Of tin or paper and
pouring the water between this and the
side of the box SO it will reach the soil
at the bottom. If the tops are wet in
the watering process they are likely
to decay prematurely.

one another, while in some instances
people not in the business have
stolen bottles.

CLEVER RING
THIEF -FOILED
Clerk Cracked Him on
KnuCkIes and He Fled.
Special to the EVENING NEWS.

New Brunswick, June ga clever
attempt was made to steal a dia-
mond ring at the Jewe1ry establish
ment of former City Attorney Otto
o. StiIlman yesterday afternoon, but
the watchful eye of the clerk waiting
upon him, Miss Jessie Richardson,
caught him and he vas foiled in the
attempt. He lost a $12 Clipped dia-
mond ring which he wore on enter
ing the store, but got away before
the police could capture him. A
man who was thought to be an ac-
complete was captured by bystand-
ers, but he was released before the
police arrived.
Stillman's store is located on AL
bany street, opposite the post Cfce
and next door to the waiting room
of the Public Service Railway Com
pany. where a crowd is almost al
ways on the sidewalk. Within a
stones throw of the store is the
This is in fact the busiest corner in
the city.
Yesterday afternoon about 4
o'clock a young man walked into the
store and asked to look at some dia-
mond rings. He was without a hat
and said he wanted to buy an en-
gagement ring for a young woman
he was going to marry and who
worked In one Of the local depart
ment stores. Miss Richardson show
ed him a tray of rings.
AS he looked them over she no
ticed that he kept slipping the chip
ped diamond ring he wore, off and
on his finger. Then he took it off
and tried to exchange it for one in
the tray. She held a small wooden
stick used to measure ones finger
for a ring and cracked the man
over the knuckles with it, at the
same time reprimanding him for the
act. He was completely unnerved by
her sudden attack and dropping his
ring, fed. The story soon became
current that he had gotten away
with a tray OF rings and quite a
crowd gave chase, but he slipped
into an alley and escaped.
Another man was in the store at
the time consulting another clerk as
to having his watch repaired. 1t
was thought he was a friend of the
ring customer" as he quickly fol
lowed the other fellow out Of the
store. He was caught and brought
back. The clerks questioned hin,
but he said he lived near the Rari-
tan landing bridge and knew moth
ing about the other fellow. His eS-
PLANTATION seemed to be satisfactory,
so he was released. The police were
not notified until after the affair
was all oyer and although they made
an attempt to get the hatless fellow,
he got away.

MENTAL ACCURACY.
Greatly Improved by Leaving Of
Coffee.

The manager of an etensive cream

regular coffee drinker, he found it in
furious to his health and a hindrance
to the performance of his business
duties.
"It impaired my digestion, gave me
a distressing sense Of f~ulluess in the
region of the stomach, causing a most
painful and disquieting palpitation of
the heart, and what is worse it mud
died my mental faculties 80 as to ser
iously injure my business efficiency.
81 finally concluded that something
would have to be done. 1 quit the use
of coffee, short off, and began to drink
Postum. The cook didn t make it right
at frst-she didn't boil it long enough.
and l did not find it palatable and quit
using it and went back to coffee and to
the stomach trouble again.
"Then my wife took the matter in
hand, and by following the directions
on the box, faithfully, she had me
drinking Postum for several days be-
fore | knew it.
"When l happened TO remark that
I was feeling much better than I had
for a long time, she told me that I had
been drinking Postum and that ac-
counted for it. Now we have no coffee
on our table.
"My digestion has been restored and
with this improvement has come relief
from the oppressive sense Of f~ullness
and palpitation of the heart that used
to bother me so. | note such a gain in
mental strength and ac~uteness that I
can attend to my Office work with ease
ard pleasure and without making the
mistakes that were so annoying to me
