Nasturtiums For Bare Spots.

Plant nasturtiums wherever there il
a bare spot in your garden; plant them
wherever yon think there is going to
be a bare spot. They are among the
most easily grown of flowers. and their
snowy blossoms, which flower until
frost, can be used for cut flowers for
the house all through the summer.
One. gardener always plants nastur-
tiums about her hollyhocks. When she
cuts down the stalks Of the hollyhocks
after the flowers have passed by-a
practice, by the way, which keeps her
plants strong and her flowers blythe
nasturtiums are just ready to demand
every inch Of ground in sight. for after
they pass their babyhood %nasturtium
plants are very greedy of room. In a
few weeks more they begin to bloom
and v what would otherwise be
bare spots in the garden with rioting
color.
Another gardener plants nasturtium
seeds among the bulbs in her hardy
border. She does not remove the bulbs,
but after the foliage of the bulbs turns
scar and yellow she cuts it. Just about
this time the nasturtiums are we'll IN
der way, and they quickly cover the
bulbs with a carpet of color and bloom.

The First Step.

A Woodman came into q forest and
made a petition to the Trees to pro-
vide him a handle for his X.
The Trees. honored by his civility,
acceded to his request and held a col
%sultation to decide which of them
should be given to him.
Without a dissenting voice the choice
fell upon the Ash. which it seems is
not a favorite among the Trees. Some
Of them were bold enough to say that
bad luck went with the Ash and that
at heart they were not bound to be, in
sympathy with woodcutters.
The Woodman cut down the Tree
and fitted the handle to his ak. then.
to the dismay Of the Trees. set to work
and with strong strokes quickly felled
all the noblest giants of the forest.
Lamenting too late the fate of his
companions. an old Oak said to a neigh
boring Cedar:
1.-The first step has lost US all. If
we had not so willingly given up the
rights of the Ash we might have stood
for ages"

A Docs Intelligence.

Animals as a rule understand who
their friends are. A Washingtonian
tells the story Of the dog whose eyes
had been treated by an oculist to his
great relief. The trouble returned.
and the dogs master determined to
take him to the oculist's a second time.
Film Flam seemed to know where he
was going. for on entering the square
where the oculist had his Office he
raced ahead Of his master and up the
step where he had been but once be-
fore and on the door being opened
bolted straight for the treatment room.
This time the treatment was a zinc
solution that was very severe and
brought the water in streams from the
patients eyes,. but he took it with his
nose in the air. never wincing. and the
only sign of feeling he made was to
hold out n paw pathetically for his
masters hand.

Hints For the Cook,

Salt tends to darken cabbage, cault-
flower or brussels sprouts.
Tie caulif1ower and cabbage in a
piece of ~cheesecloth. 1t is then easy
to handle and keeps its shape.
Slice eggplant with a silver knife.
Always wash a dozen pea pods to
cook with the peas. This gives them
a better flavor.
Peas are delicious when cooked in
the pod. The pods burst open and
rise to the top; the peas settle to the
bottom.
Vegetables thoroughly ventilated
while cooking are thought to be more
wholesome and Of better flavor.
Vegetables should not be cooked In
m iron kettle.
Cook vegetables as soon after gather
ing as possible.
Cook dandelions. spinach, green peas,
caulIiower. cabbage and brussels
sprouts uncovered,

Oddities Of Genius.

Of the great philosopher Samuel
Johnson it is said that the doctor was
remarkable in his school days for his
habit of putting off disagreeable tasks
for an indefinite period. His e%xtraor-
binary memory enabled him to easily
perform his tasks when once fairly
started. He greatly enjoyed being car
ried into school every morning by three
of his schoolfellows and in return for
the distinction thus afforded him often
helped them very materially with their
lessons. He cared little for the usual
games. but invented a winter pastime
which always gave him great delight
when he could indulge in it. This was
to go upon the ice in his bare feet with
a rope fastened to his waist and be
dragged about at a high rate of speed
by a hilarious group of school fellows.
