Do you know how to revive a drown

trio shock or gas poisoning. or from
other accidents which suspend the
breathing? You should. Even children
should know this first aid.
Today I am going to give you what is
considered the best method of giving
artificial respiration. Don't depend upon
your memory without practicing It.
Practice II after reading this, and save
this article so you can practice 1t again.
1t will be time we'll spent. You can
never tell when you might be able TO
save a life, for In such accidents as
have mentioned every moment Of delay
is serious. and, while waiting for doc

the victim may die.

THE GARDEN
nv MARY POTTER DAVIS.

Among the most noted of the New
England gardens was the one Celia
Thaxter laid out at her brothers
House of Entertainment" on the island
Of Appledore. In this small space. only
I5x50 feet, there were so many lovely
flowers, that inclosed as 1t was by the
covered porch on one side and the
blue ocean on the other, 1t was like .
bit of fairyland. Many of New Eng
lands literary and artistic people found
great pleasure In 1t. Whittier quietly
enjoyed 1t. and Childe Hassam reveled
in the riot of color 1t displayed. Celia
Thaxter's book. IAN Island Garden,
illustrated by Childe Hassarn, tells OF
her coming over from her home on the
mainland each Spring TO Appledore In
her brothers steam tug with the young
plants she had been raising for the
garden, the hurricane deck overfiowing
with tiny pots of green shoots, the
plants she had kept through the Win
ter, and tender vines which fairly hid
the railing Of the little boat.

ing book. The Lure OF the Garden,
tells of beautiful garden In Salem be-
where he loved to sit alone sometimes
after ne had gone home with his cousins
from an evening entertainment. There,
too, he would spend quiet afternoon,
now and then, In the solitude which
seemed so necessary to his nature.
A famous arboretum Of Massachu-
sets, while 1t may not strictly. per-
ilaps, be called garden Of history. has
certainly had much to do with the
history of gardens in our country.
Many years ago there formed in the
mind OF Mr. George B. Emerson OF
Boston an idea Of botanical garden
which should not only be a pleasure
to the people In the city where It was
developing other parks and gardens.
The idea persisted. finally attracting the
attention of Mr.. James Arnold, q
wealthy merchant of New Bedford, who
agreed to finance the project when
plans for carrying 1t out should DC
definitely made. It was at last agreed
that an arbotetum, called the Arnold
Arboretum. should be established at
Jamaica Plain. Mr. Charles Sprague
Sargent was chosen as the director, q
most fortunate selection, as 1t brought
to the work a man OF the utmost abil-
ity and enthusiasm.
It happened that in 1875, four years
after this beginning, william s. Clark.
who had given up the presidency OF
Amherst College TO establish an agri-
cultural college In Japan, sent q collec-
ton of native seeds Of Japan home TO
the Arnold Arboretum. This was the
beginning Of lively exchange of seeds
and cuttings Of hardy trees and shrubs
between Eastern Asia and New Eng
land. Many new specimens from Asia
and parts OF Europe have been found
| TO flourish In the soil Of eastern North
| America, and surplus specimens have
been sent to parks and gardens all
| through the country, with Information
gathered from experiments in the
| arboretum

''Woodman, spare that tree,

RESTING ON LACRELS

The mercantile bureau of the Chamber of Commerce seems to have made some vigorous sugges- lions, which will require vote of the directors of. the C. of c. before they become settled policy.
 For years the city gave rather q cold shoulder toward plans to attract more industries here The oppor- unity 10 obtain the great plant of the General Electric pany-now at Lynn--is still fresh in the minds of many. Opposition to new indus tries in & city is fashioned; and whatever logic there may have been in the stand that new industries would compete in the labor market with established industries no longer obtains. The myriads of workmen who drive 10 their work have access to many places for employment be- sides the city in which they happen 10 live.
 The no-new-industries policy is also a detriment to the merchants. These need as large buying public as possible to prosper. They want the C. Of C. to adopt modern methods and arc fully justified in wishing that.
