Those most usually afflicted with old sores are persons who have reached or passed mid dle life. The vitality of the blood and strength of the system have naturally begun to decline, and the poisonous germs which have accumulated because cf a sluggish and inactive condition of the system, or some hereditary taint which has hitherto been held ia check, now force an outlet on the face, arms, legs or other part of the body. The place grows red and angry, festers and eats into the surrounding tissue until it becomes a chronic and stubborn uleer, fed and kept open by the impurities with which the blood is saturated. Nothing is more trying and disagreeable than a stubborn, non-healing sore. The very fact that it resists ordinary remedies and treatments i3 good reason for suspicion; the same germ-producing cancerous ulcers is back of every eld sore, and especially i3 this true if the trouble is an inherited one.

Capital punishment Is still practised In many countries, though of late years, especially In the United States, It has been made as humane as possible. That creation of the French Revolution, the guillotine, Is still used by some coun tries, and the old executioner's ax deals out Justice in Brunswick. The most humane method of execu tion, the electric chair, Is used only In the United States. Spain employs the garrote, or Iron collar, which Is tightened until the victim strangles to death; and In Prussia the heads of prisoners are struck off wltn the sword. The guillotine Is used In Bavaria and j Belgium ; and Russia destroys her j criminals by shooting, hanging, and j with the executioner's sword. The gal lows Is the official means of administer lng death In Great Britain; Austria has adopted the same means ; but Chi- nese criminals are killed by the sword. j 8a feat. The sentimental and lovesick youth stood gazing at the round, romantic moon. i "Yes," he confided, "the idol of my ' heart resides on yon hill. To-night I . shall serenade the cynosure of my af fections as gallants were wont to do when knighthood was In flower. Now, what Instrument do you think would be the most appropriate?" "Well," replied his practical chum, "If I were you I should serenade her with a phonograph." "What? A phonograph? Why, a phonograph Is nothing like as romantic as a guitar." "leu, old chap, but you can start a phonograph and then run to the -tall timbers before the shooting begins," Too Mora Exercise. Hop LI had bought a cheap but "warranted" clock. At the end of a week he returned to the shop from which he had procured his time-piece. with no expression on his face, but with evident bewilderment of mind. "She go, click, clack ! click, clack ! all light, tree day," he announced to the young woman who waited on him. "I wind all light, samee you say. Nex day she go click, click clack! click! click ! clack ! "I shake her up so! down so! lound so! no good. She stop click stop clack only go when I slake. "I say give me one less slake, more dick, clack!" Got Service. The boarder who was a month behind with the landlady was surprised at the size of the heap of mashed potatoes on the plate the girl had brought him. He was even more surprised when he found a folded paper in the center of the heap. But he didn't open it He knew what It was. Carefully wiping It with his napkin, he put it in bis vest pocket and went ahead calmly with his dinner. You can't disconcert an experienced boarder. A loud laugh, an over-vivacious man ner betrays a lack of breeding. Copy the stillness of form, the quiet poise, which is the great charm of English women, while a vivacity somewhat under re straint adds that which is winning and piquante in the manner of our own coun trywomen. To an Italian, charged in a London court with drunkenness, the magistrate said : "Italians don't often get drunk. Don't ret Enelish ways." Russian officers in camp receive money to pay for their meals, but in many cases they keep this for other purposes, and eat with the common soldiers.

It Is the part of wisdom to be able to administer first aid to the Injured tree, as well as the more permanent aids. One of the most cemmon of these Is the splitting down of a limb, as sug gested In accompanying Illustration, Fig. 1. If the limb Is not broken wholly oft If there is still left a connecting link of sound wood and of sound bark the limb can with care be saved. This will BHOKEN LIMB SAVED. (Fig. 1, split limb; Fig. 2, la position.) often save the beauty of the tree. With as little delay as possible shorten all the small branches of the limb to make their weight as little as possible, then carefully lift the broken limb back Into position and lash it firmly with ropes or straps. Now with a bit or auger bore a hole through the limb and tree trunk as suggested by the dotted line in Fig. 2. Through this Insert a bolt of Iron hav lng a bead on one end and a nut on the other. Turn the nut on the end, with a big washer beneath It, until the crack In the break has been made as small as possible, then cover the crack neatly over with grafting wax. Many a tree has such a gaping wound as that shown In A, Fig. 2. It Is caused by sawing off a big limb and neglecting to protect the wound until nature could extend a new growth of bark over It The new bark has begun to grow about the edges, but the ' wood has decayed within, and nature can carry growth of bark no further. Cut out all the decayed wood and fill the cavity completely with Portland ce ment mixed with water. Do not add GAPING WOUND REPAIRED. sand. Fill the cavity and press the cement close to the new bark (B, Fig, 3) that there may be left no little opening for air and water to enter, The life of a tree can be prolonged for many years by such aid as this. Orange Judd Farmer. Clover Hny. It Is claimed that clover hay may be baled in the field, but experiments made are not sufficient to show the benefits derived, compared with storing clover in the mow. The clover is cut In the morning, after It Is free from dew or rain, and when well wilted the hay tedder Is used, so as to give It ev ery chance to cure. In the afternoon the hay Is baled and hauled to the barn, If this method Is practiced, care must be exercised In having the hay prop erly cured and In Just the proper con dltion for baling, as baled clover more liable to heat than timothy or other kinds. Tomatoes. The tomato produces fruit through' out the season until frost destroys the vine. It will have blossoms, green fruit and ripe fruit at the same time, and is consequently a continuous bearer. To do this profusely, however, It should have a liberal application of fertilizer applied broadcast over considerable ground around the plant, and the soil should be kept clean, while the vines should be benefited by having supports. Substitute for Farla Green. As Is well known, Paris green does not dissolve, but Is held In suspension In water, hence the water must be con stantly agitated to properly apply It The Ohio experiment station recom mends a much cheaper mixture, which la soluble In water. - It Is made by dis solving two pounds of commercial white arsenic and four pounds of car bonate (washing) of soda In two gal lons of water. Use one and a half pints of this mixture to each barrel of Bordeaux mixture when spraying for blight, scab, etc Times Are Different. Not long ago a farmer In Iowa went to a harness dealer to buy a team of harness. He found one that suited him and the price was $15. The farmer happened to remember that about a dozen years ago be had bought a har ness just like It from the same dealer for and he mentioned the fact The dealer went to his book and found this to be true. "But." said the dealer, 'my books show that you did not pay cash for It because you did not have the money. You hauled In 300 bushels of corn and gave It to me for the $35 harness. Now, I'll tell you what I'll do. If you will bring me 300 bushels of com I will give you the $15 harness, also a double buggy harness worth $35, single buggy harness worth $15, a $7 plush robe, a boy's riding saddle worth $5, one whip and riding bridle worth $1.50, two leather halters worth 2.50, brush and currycomb worth $1 and a rawhide buggy whip worth $1." Mound City Enterprise. Growing Radishes. No vegetable grows quicker than the radish, and a few rows only are neces sary to supply quite a large family. Radishes are unfit, unless grown quick ly and pulled at the proper time. As they are ordinarily grown the family Is kept supplied from the same bed until the radishes are hard and woody. Instead of so doing sow only part of row at a time. The way to have them as they should be, until late In the season, la to procure quite a num ber of packages, putting In the seed fvm n pnfltRp-o every wpek until too I late to sow them. By pursuing this method they may be had In a crisp, ten der state long after the usual first crop Is hard or gone to seed. Growing; Celery. Transplant celery to permanent beds In May or June, placing a large quan tity of manure In the trench. This crop Is one that cannot be surfeited by too much manure, as it Is one of the grossest feeders known. The plants should be frequently watered, soapsuds being better for such purpose than any thing else, and the beds should be kept as clean and nice as possible. It re quires care to have celery that Is large, crisp and white, but it Is a valuable crop when grown and pays well for the attention bestowed. If you neglect to sow the seed you can procure the plants from seedsmen and should not fall to have a supply. Ways of the Green Baa-. Those who have been watching the green bugs say that they fly only on winds blowing from the south, and the minute the wind changes from the south and gets In the north the bugs alight This was demonstrated one evening last week, according to a Law rence (Kan.) paper. After eight hours of nagging, blustery south wind the air was filled with these bugs. At 7 o'clock In the same evening the wind switched to the north and the bugs disappeared. The bugs have been coming from Texas for two months, and on every south wind they move northward. Platte City Landmark. Weeds and Grass. The earth is seemingly able to pro duce weeds or grass, whether fertile or poor, and they always appear at the same time, when the crops need the most care. Weeds are beneficial to a certain extent, although Injurious, for the gardener Is often compelled to era dicate them when he would otherwise give the garden his attention. Hy so doing he keeps the soil in a fine, friable condition for the desired crop. Weeds, however, should be removed as soon as they appear; by so doing the work can be more easily done, and the stir ring of the soil will then be required only to a moderate depth. Garden Seeds. Where several varieties of plants of the same kind are grown together, It will not be proper to save seed there from. The different kinds of melons, peas, sweet corn or other crops have their pollen distributed by the winds or by Insects, and seed saved under such circumstances will prevent unl formlty next year. The greatest care should be observed to avoid mixing when saving seed Is the object Working; Cabbages. It Is an old saying that cabbagHJ can not be worked too frequently. They seem to take a fresh start every time they are cultivated and given a good hoeing between the plants. This Is particularly the case with late cab bages, which have portions of the dry season to contend with. . Millet. Millet Is easily grown and thrives well on all kinds of soils, giving ex cellent results on sandy land if manure Is used. It crowds weeds out and soon takes possession of the land. One point In connection with millet Is not to cut It too late. The best time Is when the seed-beads are forming. The seed should not be allowed to mature, as they are liable to injure horses. Cows will, thrive well on millet bay, and horses prefer It to some kinds. There Is no surer crop than millet If the land U In good condition.
