WARNING ON PLANT VERMlN
Kerosene Emulsion Said to BE q
Remedy for Many Pests That
Annoy the Gardener.

Every gardener must face certain
annoyances and be ready to stand a
percentage of loss from vermin and
disease. The simplest and most eff
fective remedy for any kind Of plant
lice is to spray with kerosene emul-
sion. This is satisfactory with all
soft-bodied insects, and 1t kills them
by its effect through the outside Of
the body. To make kerosene emul-
sion take half pound of any hard
soap. one gallon Of hot water and two
gallons of kerosene. Dissolve the
soap thoroughly in hot water, after
which the kerosene is to be added.
Stir briskly until the whole solution
has become white and milky, indicat-
ing the complete mixture of the soap
and oil. The easiest way to do the
stirring is to run the solution through
a pump and back into the bucket OF
barrel. Add about ten gallons of wa
ter to one gallon of this stock solu-
ton and apply it with any small
spraying outfit. The solution is ef-
fective for plant lice which damage
all kinds of shrubs and almost all
vegetables.

GOOD INVESTMENT
BY JESSIE e. sHERWlN.

If a neighbor had not given little
Johnny Gibson a penny for running
an errand. and if Johnny himself, dis.
daining candy. had not invested the
copper coin in a clay pipe, this brief
exordium of human fatefulness would
never have been written.
Pennies had been scarce with John.
ny of late, and dimes with his father
and mother. Were it not for Aunt
Marcia they would not have had
roof over their heads. Then Mrs. Glib
son was incapacitated through a severe
illness lasting nearly year, and Mr..
Gibson lost his position and averaged
less than two days work in a week,
Aunt Marcia, who gave music lessons,
opened her house to them. There
were pressing debts. To meet them
Aunt Marcia had been compelled to
place a mortgage on her little prop
erty, and this was the tormenting fact
that nearly. broke Mr.. Gibson's heart.
She was very young aunt-only
twenty-four, and fair as flower Prac-
tical life had made her somewhat seri-
GUS, but she was kindness personified.
She was lovable, cheering, optimistic.
She laughed at the dark fears of her
anxious brother-in-law as to the fu-
ture. She doubled her labors as mu-
sic teacher.

fully, "all may do for you dear PEG.
pie l consider splendid investment.
Think how it will all come back to me
in heap. when your luck turns and
you get to making money again!'
Thus stood affairs upon the event
full morning when Johnny Gibson
mounted the old horse block in
front Of the house, basin of soap
suds at hand, and began blowing bub-
bles.
A man of about forty, we'll dressed
and suggesting the invalid and using
cane, came down the street. He
watched the fast ascending air bal
looms like one of the idle rich on a
careless stroll. Then his eye. became
fixed on the youthful bubble blower

Johnny gave great gasp. The pipe
fell from his hands and shattered TO
fragments as he noticed a great red
streak across the temple of the in
sensible man. He ran into the house,
screaming with fright.
His mother was away, but Mr.. Glib.
son and Aunt Marcia CHANGED to be
home. They made out enough of his
incoherent story to comprehend that
somebody was hurt and hurried out to
the sidewalk.
Il fear this is pretty serious" re-
marked Mr.. Gibson, after vain efforts
to revive the victim Of the accident.
III we could get him into the
house, suggested Marcia, I'VE might
dispose of him more comfortably than
here on the bare hard ground"
They lifted him between them.
There was spare bedroom in the
little one story wing. Marcia. ever
useful and eager to do good. secured

the blood from the pale lifeless face
and placed a wet towel over the
abrased forehead.
