Floral Death Legends.

By the Mexicans marlgolds are known
as death flowers from an exceedingly
appropriate legend that they sprang up
on the ground stained by the life blood
OF those who fell victims to the love of
gold and cruelty Of the early Spanish
settlers. Among the Vfrginian tribes.
too, red clover was supposed to have
sprung from and to be colored by the
blood Of the red man slain In battle
with the white invaders. In q similar
manner the red poppies which followed
the blowing Of the field Of Waterloo
were said to have sprung from the
blood of the killed and wounded in that
famous battle. According TO tradition.
the Danish invasion is the cause of the
daneweed, a coarse, asteraceous plant
common In England. as 1t sprang from
the blood Of Danes slain In battle. and

BEING ERECTED

pany Starts.

An artificial ice plant is being
erected in ~Tottenville that will sup

neer of the plant and his family.

N. j., says: "My child, seven years
old, had a bad cold and was weak and
quite run down in health. She had
been in this condition for about six
weeks when I began ring her vinol.
1t was a wonderful help to the child.
breaking up her cold quickly and build
ing up her strength beside. I have also
found Vinol q most excellent tonic for
keeping up the children's strength
during o siege Of whooping cough"
Vinol is a wonderful combination Of
two world-famed tonics-the medicinal
body building elements of cod liver oil
and iron for the blood, therefore 1t is a
perfectly safe medicine for children,
because it il not a patent medicine,
everything in 1t is printed on every
package, so mothers may know what
they are giving their little ones.
Therefore we ask every mother OF a
weak, sickly or ailing child in this
vicinity to try Vinol on our guarantee.

ROOM IN CLASS
FOR PLUMBING

There Is still some room in the
plumbing class for several students
who wish to learn the trade. Those
who have attended thus far have
made joints that would easily pass
the most rigid examination. The
equipment is complete and much
good work will be done in this sec
ond term.
The courses in drawing are ex-
tremely interesting. One, a course
in machine design covering a period
of three years, covers exactly the
same work that is given in the large
technical schools in New York. The
work takes up all the branches Of
design for machinery and is given by
a man who himself is a practical
working draughtsman and who
teaches the work as 1t Is done in
actual shop practice.
In the architectural draughting
class instruction is given with special
regards to the needs OF the local
terra Gotta works. doing their branch
of work in their methods. The aim
Is to fit a man to take a position in
the drawing office of terra Gotta fac
tory and do the work. All the
courses are designed to train men
and women for specific positions 80
as to increase their earning capacity.
There Is no tuition fee; all that is
asked is that a person once enrolling,
will attend regularly and work faith
fully.
