Geran;ums.

After the midwinter there will be
room enough to space out the gera-
NUNS and other bedding stock. The
cuttings that were placed in flats and
the young stock in two inch pots
should he shifted to the three inch
size and spaced Oh the benches so that
a good growth is encouraged AS soon
as we'll established in these pots the
top can be cut off and another cutting
obtained. All the young stock possible
should be taken from the plants Sc
lected in the fall for propagating ,pur-
poses. for all the cuttings from which
it is expected to produce good sized
plants should be in the prOpagatins
bench by Feb. l. Any rooted after
March i will make small plants for
bedding purposes. The best stock for
late May and early June planting
should be in four inch pots by April.
that they may be well enough estab-
lished by the middle of May to begin
to flower and should have at that time
three or -four good branches that a
succession Of bloom is assured.

Railway Trains In EnQIand.

l can prove in moment by any trav-
eler that our trains are infinitely more
luxurious than the trains in England.
But still, and Notwithstanding. l say
the English railway service is better.
Why: Because it's more human; it's
more considerate. You aren't driven
and urged to step lively and called at
in loud, harsh voices and made to feel
that you are being tolerated aboard
something that was never made for
you at all, but for the employees of the
company. In England the trains are
run for the people. not the people for
the trains.-From Theodore Dreisers

II there are any large cavities in the

A decayed place in the trunk of tree

way the dentist fills the cavity in a

ty is first chiselcd out. then the cavity
is painted with coal tar. creosote ol

and cement mortar. A very good pro

ELECTRIFIED CElLULOID.
Pulling Couple of Strips Between the
Fingers Changes Them.

Fingers Changes Them.
If you will take two thin lengths OF
celluloid. put them in contact and then
suddenly and rapidly pull them be-
tween your fingers you will observe
they both have become electrified-not
only on their outside surfaces, where
the friction Of your fingers caused a
negative electrifcation. but also on the
inner surface of the celluloid.
The strange part about this is that
one Of the inner surfaces Of the piece
is positively charged and the other one
is negatively charged. If one Of them
is slightly curved during the friction
the convex one vii! be positively
charged and the conceive sided one will
be negatively charged.
1t seems. therefore. to depend upon
whether the surface is concave or
whether it is convex-depressed or ex.
panded-to produce negative or posi-
tive electricity. Even the most minute.
imperceptible curvature is sufficient to
give the expected result It also is i'm
possible to pull the strips Of celluloid
through the fingers without producing
such strong eiectriication that one
piece will support the other.
Even the vapor pressure OF liquids Is
stronger ut the convex surface than at
the concaye. If electrons are consid-
cred rs particles of gas dissolved in
solids-as they once were--or as mega
tive electricity. there will be a greater
tendency for the electrons to escape
from the convex side, which therefore
will be left positively charged. This
also is in perfect accord with the latest
researches upon electrons.
Interesting experiments can be made
by following the above directions. Gel
luloid has peculiar properties for tests

GETTING ON III HE Il Z STAGE.
Dangers That Beset New Eggs In the
Vaudeville Basket. .-

49,. ..s Vaudeville Basket. ~.
! The most amazing thing to theat-
rlcal manager is the utter lack of COM
prehension on the part of applicants
OF what professional work really means.
When I was writing vaudeville
sketches l used to get letters from
young fellows in country towns who
wanted to 80 into vaudeville. For some
unaccountable reason they figured out
that that was the easiest way to break
into the entertainment business. AS a
matter OF fact, they were choosing the
very toughest end Of it ALL In vaude-
vile there is no stage manager to tell
one what to do and how to do it. He
must rely entirely upon himself.
Furthermore. he must do his own book
Ing. get his own transfer agent to take
care of his baggage, negotiate his own
railroading and even pack his own
properties. In fact. he has a thousand
and one troubles to divert his mind
from his proper business. It never
seems to dawn upon the aspirant that
it's much better to get into great Or
ganization. where there's somebody to
attend to every problem for him and
where he has chance to learn the
details of stagecraft
A clever vaudeville man. to begin
with. must have good act, and if he
be unknown he must know how to talk
his act to the managers. II he en-
pl0ys an agent he is ut disadvantage,
because these persons work for the
management of the theaters. Further
more, the vaudeville man must remem-
Der that he comes out on to the stage
with nothing behind him. practically
no properties. no chorus girls to divert
attention: The eyes Of the people are
centered on him. He must do it all. It
Is by far the most difficult business in
the world to succeed at, unless one is
very talented.-George NJ. Cohan, in
the New York Sun.

How We Got the Gas Jet.

Possibly very few people know that
we owe the ordinary gas jet to the ac-
cidental use of Il wOman's thimble.
After the dinner of the British Com
merciai Gas association Professor Wv
ian Lewes told how Clegg Of Redruth
used to burn the illuminant straight
from the open pipe and turn it of by
plugging the pipe with some clay.
Upon one occasion his lump Of clay
was missing. and. picking up bis wife's
thimbIe. he put this on top of the pipe.
Much to his surprise, the gas escaped
through small holes which had been
worn by the constant Use Of the needle,
small burning jets of gas resulting.
From this Professor Lewes traced the
evolution Of the gas jet. - London
