ALL SENSATIONS IN BRAIN
Persons Make a Mistake When Ihey
Say They Feel Pain in other
Portions of the Body.

Where do you feel the pain? asks
the doctor. In my finger, in my ear,
in my foot. the sufferer replies, and If
the physician told him he did not feel
it there but in his head, the average
man would doubt the doctors sanity.
Yet the doctor would be right.
In an address ut the University OF
California; Prof. G. H. Parker Of Har-
ward told the students that we have
been obliged to give up the idea that
sensations are spread throughout our
bodies, for persons who have lost q
limb often feel sensations that seem
to come from the missing member.
"Our sensations" said Professor
Parker, "are not located in the peri
pheral parts affected, but In the cen
trail nervous system. and within that
portion of it known as the cerebral
/ cOrtex." This is the outer layer, OF
gray matter Of the brain. One may
lose an arm, yet have the sensation Of
pain in the hand; but If a small piece
of that particular part Of the brain t.
which run the sensory nerves from
the arm be removed, one will neve
again feel anything in that arm, no
even if the hand be placed in the fire.

WORK AMONG THE FLOWERS

The rex begonia may be prOpagated
by slashing the leaf several times
across the ribs with a sharp knife, and

necessary, pin Ii down with toothplcKs.
The leaves will rot wherever the lear
has been slashed, and soon new plants
will appear.
Perennials sown in the summer
should have developed into GOOD
thrifty plants by this time. Plant
where they are to bloom next summer,
| or pot for the window.
Late in September pot the prim-
roses and cineraria seedlings grown In
frames. Do not allow them to become
pot-bound until they are ready 10

II the mignonette Is your favorite
flower, September Is good time TO
insure a good supply for the holidays
Sow three or four seeds In thumb
pots, and plunge them in a box OF
sand. Sow only the seeds OF the large,
Towering kind and thin to one plant
In a pot. Repot when the pot Is full
of roots until the plant Is established
in ive-inch pots.
Secure all the fallen leaves you can
for they are invaluable about the gar
den. Use them as mulch and protec
ton for the flower beds and individual
plants and shrubs; bank pits, sol'
frames and hot beds with them. Put
them In a corner of the garden or bur!
them and make leaf mold. Store then
near the chicken house. to be used TO
the scratching shed.
Give transplanted flowers plenty o
time to recoup. Do not water them to-
o much. or the soil Will become sou
and further retard the growth OF tn

. window, for until the growth start
they want to be in a shady place.
If a plant looks sickly. do not

If you notice little bit OF cottony
stuff adhering to the leaves and stems
of your plants, prepare the following
mixture: ..
Melt a bar of soap, add coal oil to 1t
equal to half the amount of soap. Inc
two will readily mix if combined when
the soap is hot. Keep in well-covered

ABOUT LILIES
ey z. VAN eENTHUYsEN.

If ordered early in September, lily
bulbs will reach you any time from
the latter part of the month until No
vember; and it Is well to have the bed
prepared In advance. Prepare the bed
now. and as the season advances cover
It with six inches of litter of any kind,
and then If the bulbs do not come too
late. the ground will be in condition to
receive them when they do come.
Again cover the ground with a lit
ter, and in the early spring remove
ii. Lilies like a well-drained, moist
soil, deep and well-worked over with
fine, well-decayed manure.
When the bulbs are set in the ground
a handful of sand should be placed
around each bulb and through this the
root will reach the rich soil.
In my garden I would have all the
"lllies of the field" as well as those
