Roman Pottery IN ENGLAND.

Roman Pottery IN England.
Roman pottery was recently discov-
cred In London. When the old gem
eral post Office In st. Martin's-leGrand
was demolished q large series Of Ro-
man rubbish-pits was disclosed. The
lowest portions Of one hundred and
twenty Of these were carefully *
cavated. The finds" included 4 few
whole pots and many thousands Of
fragments Of samian and coarss pot
tory, besides building materials, whet-
stones. beads. knives, coins, and other
small objects. Il has been possible to
assign dates to most OF the holes be-
tween A. D. 50 and 200. By the asso-
citation In the same hole Of datable
and undatable pottery light has been
thrown upon many types Of the latter.
Last summer, while the buildings SO.
King William street, were being
demolished another series Of i've large
Roman pits was uncovered. From the
fragments thus obtained nine Samian
vessels Of the first century have been
pieced together, and are now IN the
0uildhall Museum.

KEEP LAWN WELL ROLLED

To make a good lawn the soil re-
quires frequent rolling. In the first
place a good lawn cannot be produced
in one, two or three years, that Ia, a
perfect lawn, without depression and
with soil surface as smooth as a
floor
A lawn roller can be made without
much expense, from cement, using
gas pipe for the axle and frame The
form for setting the cement may be
of wood, using very narrow Stats or
galvanized iron. In case the latter is
used. the form may be left on the
roller, and II 1t ia kept dry and pro-
tected from the weather, II will last a
long time.
A handy size for a lawn roller is
one about 20 inches long by Ii iI2hes
IN diameter. II one has the proper
tools, which consist of wise and a
ttread-cutting tool, roller can be
made in short time, and at very
little expense.

HINTS ABOUT FLOWERS

We usually think Of pruning only
when a plant is asleep 1t is true, that
the easiest pruning should be done
then, but there is much that we can
do during tSs-yrmmer to Keep a plant
in good conGrlon.
The lilac is usually the best pruned
shrub we have, for the simple reason
that we are apt to pick every bloom.
The plant cannot of course then make
any seeds and the strength is thrown
into new wood where it belongs
Rose bushes should be treated the
same way. second bloom can be
produced on wistaria by following this
rule and cutting heed Of each runner.
Along towards the middle of sum

shoots coming upon your plants. When
they reach an even height with the rest
Of the plant nip out the tip and leaves

DIVER WINS IN LIFE FIGHT

Monster Suction Pipe and Sig
mails Ate ndants.

Laporte. Ind.-George gilbert Of
Michigan City, professional diver. en-
ployed in the digging OF the new wells
In the Kankakee river for Laporte's
auxiliary water supply. had thrilling
experience while in 35 feet of water.
One of his hands became caught In
the monster suction pipe, holding him
fast so that he was unable to reach his
life line and give the signal to the
men above.
For ten minutes he was helpless,
while those above continued to pump
air to him, but finally by superhuman
efforts he was able to pull his hand
out of his rubber glove and then, be-
fore the onrushing water could over
come him, he jerked the life line and
was hosted to the top.
Culbert was none the worse for his
experience, although 1t was some time
before he was able to resume his work.

who was celebrating his eighty-fifth
birthday and who had been feeling

Uncle Peter ate chicken that night
for his dinner. And he was just as
proud of his new ivories as was the
