great numbers by these spore-bearing
tufts, and are borne by the wind and
carried by birds and insects from tree
to tree. Finding lodgment on the
fruit these spores terminate and pro-
duce another infection and another
crop Of spores.
The decayed fruit in a shriveled,
dried-up condition that has caused
them commonly to be called ''mum-
miles," may cling to the tree or fall to
the ground. The fungus living over
the winter in such mummies and
spores which are produced from them
in the spring start new infections. 1t
is also possible that the spores which
have been disseminated during the late
summer and have adhered to bud scales,
ETC., may likewise cause Infection the
following year.

SWEET SULTAN.

The peculiarly sweet, spicy smell of
sweet sultan has always endeared this
useful member of the centaurea fam

is very useful flower for cutting,
as it lasts wonderfully well and is
light and graceful.

A blossom blight may result from
infection of the blossoms. This is
commonly the case the year after a Sc
we're outbreak of the disease, due to
the fact that the old mummied fruits
remaining on the tree in large numbers
are sources of infection during the
blossoming period. The blighting of
the blossoms sometimes results in the
twigs becoming infected, due to the
disease gaining entrance into the
twigs through the blossoms. 1t would
seem that the fungus cannot penetrate
into the twigs directly, but only
through blossom or wound.
Rot After Harvesting.-When there
has been serious outbreak of the dis
ease, with the result that spores are
abundant in the orchard infected, every

who thought themselves beyond aid.

Diabetes is a peculiar and battling
disease which the medical profession
seems to be unable to accurately de-

many years of experimenting and re-
search by foremost physicians through
out the world.
Diabetes is invariably the result of

SUMMER GARDEN HELPS

Make succession of paintings Of
sweet corn and snap beans up to the
middle or last Of July. These will
give you good vegetables for late use.
Transplanting celery three or four
times develops stronger root system
for the plants, and the plants will
grow better when set in the perma-
nent row.
If the garden is stirred frequently
during the summer with fine toothed
horse cultivator the soil will retain
moisture and II will never become
hard and cloddy.

two feet long pick Off the ends of the

MAKE THE GARDEN NEAT.

Too much stress cannot be laid
upon neatness in the garden. II faded
leaves and fallen flowers are allowed
to accumulate, the charm that should
characterize it is gone, and no amount
of bloom can make up for the lack of
care which is thus made manifest.

One reason why so many beginners

Rats and Fires.

At time when everyone is COM
planning of the high cost of living it
might be we'll to see if we cannot elm
mate two great sources of waste-fires
and rats.
Most fires are needless. All rats
are so. Some years ago study of the
rat problem in Philadelphia arrived at
the conclusion that the rodents of that
city ate more than a million dollars
worth of food each year At that rate,
the disgusting creatures can hardly
cost less than $100,O00O00 per year
to the whole country. This is a pref
ty high price to pay for the compan-
iOnship of impish pests which, besides
their other bad habits, undermine
floors and carry the most dreaded of
ali diseases, bubonic plague.
Yet fires are more expensive than
rats. In 1915-the last year for which
figures are at hand-the American
people paid out in premiums for fire
insurance $419361, 346. OF this vast
sum at least three-fOurths could be
saved by reducing our fire record to
the rate prevailing in England, France
or Germany; and even in our time and
nation $300000000 per year is saw
ing worth noting, and one which
would have a perceptible effect on the
cost of living.

The Ready Reply.

A distinguished young professor OF
theology at a French Protestant uni
versity was known to be of humble
social origin, and the students found
him rather "heavy" in the matter Of
speech in his first lecture. Many days
had not passed, however, before they
discovered, at their own expense, their
professors ready wit.
One morning some of the students
put near his desk a bundle of hay.
The young professor was quite equal
to the occasion. Looking calmly at
his audience, he said in the most nat
ural tones. Gentlemen, which Of you
has forgotten his breakfasts" At an
other time the students put log of
wood in the same place. He looked
at 1t in the most amiable manner and
said sweetly: II am always glad to
see new pupil join my class. "-The

Thin, brittle, colorless and scraggy
hair is mute evidence of a neglected
scalp; of dandruff-that awful scurf.
There is nothing so destructive to
the hair as dandruff. 1t robs the hair
of its luster, its strength and it's very
life; eventually producing feverish-
ness and itching of the scalp, which
if not rernedied causes the hair roots
to shrink, loosen and die--then the
hair falls out fast. A little Danderine
tonight-nOw-any time-will surely
save your hair.
Get a 25 cent bottle of Knowlton's

the first application your hair will
take on that life luster and luxuriance
which is so beautiful. 1t will become

The Ban Of
Silence

"We all liked Djalhma-frst, be-
cause he was loyal, tireless servant !;
next, for the reason that he was
unique and interesting. A peculiar his
tory attached to him. He had ap-
peared in our little. village one day
with a tired out chit of girl, bronzed
with the sun of far-away India, but
bewitchingly beautiful in eyes and fea-
lures, intelligent beyond her years, full
of hustle and liveliness, striking
contrast to her close, dusky escort,
who was grim of face, statuesque Of
form and ever silent.
The girl did the talking. They were
to find Miss Eunice Mason; the cnild
was her niece. Everybody knew Miss
Mason, an humble but thrifty spinster
who lived in the next town, conduct
ing little millinery shop.
"She is my aunt" announced the
sprightly little creature. my dear
father told me she is my only living
relative in all the world. We have
come thousands of miles. My name is
Cola Brentwood, Djalhma is my only
friend. He is good, but he cannot tell
you that, for he is under q ban"
"a ban?" repeated, fully mystified,
and brother Ronald, about the same
age as the little girl by my side, stared
10 wonder and curiosity, too.
"The ban of silence" explained
Cola in her pretty, prattling way, twas
placed by the Hindoo priest For
seven years Djalhma, for leaving his
native land, must not speak a word,
or he becomes an outcast, here" and
s0lemnly uttered the strange child,
pointing upwards. where papa is.
Djalhma was true to his master, my
father. When the fanatics killed him
and burned our bungalow, we had to
flee. 1t was Djalhmas brother who
helped, the good Kariza."
Miss Mason welcomed her niece and
for long time the strange child and
her more strange story interested the
country round. Cola speedily adapt
ed herself to her new surroundings.
There was no place for Djalhma, how
ever, and he sought work, for he re-
fused to leave the child to strangers.
He seemed impressed with a loyal
sense of sacred guardianship over
Cola. We needed a man about the
place and my father hired Djalhma.
He never regretted the act.
Every Saturday Djalhma would don
his native dress and go down to visit
Cola. Miss Mason permitted it. In

humble, faithful fellow, who seemed
to have no motive in life except to
toll uncomplainingly for others.
Cola was eighteen; Ronald had
grown into young man. 1t was not
strange that he had been attracted by
the charming girl whom time had de-
veloped into a charming young lady.

he announced that Cola and he were

We were not sorry for 1t, although
father advised a delay of a year or

led to a peculiar situation. She had
left what little she had to Cola. 1t
was little, indeed, for there were a
great many debts. Miss Mason had
supported a crippled and helpless
