will sprout in two weeks, when a wooden
block should be inserted in the calyx of
the flower, the blocks being changed and
a larger one inserted daily, until the
slips Lecome the rL'ht size for your pil
lows. When the pillows slip into them
easily, they may be pulled and the bed
spaded for a new crop. The variegated
seeds are said to produce if planted in
the bed an ele.'ant crop of bed comfor
ters. By sowing in patches, the crop of
course will show the artisticness of the
patchwork, and as they grow in p.uterns
as they are planted, this permits an in
finite variety of design. By putting a
few quires of paper between the rows,
the bed will be provided with sheets,
which may also be used for shams.
Some experts bury a piece of hose in the
bed and by coupling this onto the hyd
rant the bed can be provided with
springs. A cheaper and perhaps more
satisfactory way is just to make the bed
in the spring and be done with it. A
few castor beans planted at the corners
of the bed will provide cheap c.istors
and permit the bed being taken in when
it rains, without disturbing the plants.
The department requests that you report
the results of your experiment."
We confessed our inability to throw
any light on the subject, and, for a won
der, our better half did not insist on try
ing the experiment. That's what we
object to about this seed business. Why
Ehould the toiling masses be taxed to
furnish vegetable bacteria to burrow in
the earth's epidermic? Why should the
unwary husbandman be made to bow
his back by the enthusiastic husband
woman in a futile attempt to raise blue
roses from mustard sed that cost the
government .9 an ounce, Troy. Why
should he be compelled to delve in the
earth in a vain attempt to grow figs from
dandelion down, and smile and smile,
as though he liked it, and yet bo a vil
lain? Why should he be compelled to
undertake to grow prize pumpkins on a
city lot tiiat cost him $1U0 a front foot,
and blow himself for $7.75 for garden
tools to do it with, when he can buy all
the "punks" he wants in a year for a
quarter of a dollar? We tried a whole
package of these seeds once. We worked
like a .Senagambian helot beneath the
lash of his Spartan master, for
onti i
whole summer and produced the finest
crop of jimson ever raised in the state.
We alsu produced nine other varieties of
useless vegetation unknown to these
parts that stumped all the botanical sa
vants. These were also accompanied by
an abundant crop of mixed profanity
new to this rejiion but indigenous to Ne
vada. Down with the seed scheme! If
our congressmen cannot bo re-elected
without the aid of a dudo agricultural
monstrosity in Washington, I). C, let
them stay un-elected. An agricultural
department that gets up a scheme of
Eiibsoiling for those who plow the raging
canal, is not calculated to superintend j
the selection of seeds for the unin- j
formed. And tho suggestions sent out
by it, that by planting almanacs a good
crop of dates could bo raised places it be
neath contempt.

ACROSS THE SEA.
The Deserted AVlto Won tbo Baco b
Four Hour.
A race across 2,0UO miles of water for
a wife was recently ended at Kills
Island. The race was between Mrs.
Tram: Moliucaux, a deserted wife, and
a young frirl. Bertha Xeibling, the hus
band's! sweetheart.
The wife won the race by four hours
and, incidentally, the erring husband.
Molineaux had been wealthy in Bcr
Iiu. lie had married the daughter of a
rich grain, merchant. When he failed
in business he quarreled with his wife,
fur she made some remark about his
poverty which angered him. He left
her, saying that he would go to Amer
ica and begin life over again. They
were proud and she permitted hini.to go
alcne, although in her heart she loved
hitn.
The man came over here and by hard
work established himself and was in re
ceipt of a good salary. He thought
.sometimes of the woman over in Berlin.
She was; living with her wealthy lather,
who war. very fond of her. In a spirit of
pique the husband sent across the sea
for another woman to share the home
he had made here nt 1SG0 Lexington
avenue.
Mrs. Molineaux heard of the other
woman and embarked in all haste on
the steamer Lahn. bound for New York-.
The other one, Bertha Neiblinfr, was a
steerage passensrer on the Yenetia from
Hamburg. The Venetia sailed first,
yet the fast steamer Lahn beat her into
port by four hours, with Mrs. Molineaux
in tlie first cabin.
She had little difficulty in interesting
the authorities in her case. Detective
Peter (iroden found her husband and in
formed iiim that a woman was at Eiiis
Island waiting to see him. Molineaux
was taken there and the commissioner
of immigration asked some very search
ing questions. Then he dismissed him
to another room and talked to Mrs. Mol
ineaux. Neither husband nor wife know
of the presence of the other on the
island.
! Thej were brought into the same
I room.' The wife at the sight of her hus
j band threw her arms around his neck
i and fainted.
She recovered opportunely and told
I him how cruelly she had misunder
stood him and that she would willingly
share poverty and a crust of bread with
him.
No man could resist talk like that.
I Molineaux kissed her on the forehead
and vowed he would be true to her to
the end of time. So tht'y went to 1SG0
Lexington avenue together, where they
will dwell.
The other woman? The story is prac
tically finished as far as she is con
cerned. The immigration authorities
came to the conclusion that as she had
no friends he re now and was likely to be
come a public charge the best thing
they could do would be to send her back
to Germany. Chicago Record.
"Well, you're home at last, are you,"
said the mermaid, angrily. "And whrre
have yen been, I'd like to know? Do
you realize ijiat it is nearlv 24 hours
since I last saw you? A pretty
iUfJ. j
band you are!"
"But, my dear " the merman bgcan. I
" 'But''but' don't say 'but' to me. i
No doubt, you've an excuse. You'd be j
a poor sort of a man if you couldn't
think of one by this time. But I know
where you were. You've been hanging

Huriul Utile In Kiisclniul.
In England no physician may legally
give a certificate of the cause of death
unless he ha- prescribed for the person
at least IS hours before death. Without
such certificate no undertaker is ikt
mlttod to bury the body. Chicago
Tribune.
If asked the question "Have you trot a
stomach?" it would bo safe on .neutral
principles, to answer "Yes." But, if
you are sure of it, that is, if you ever
feel any distress after eating or any
pains of whatever description in the
re;;ioitof the stomach, you have got
something else besides an ordinary
stomach ; in other words you have got a
diseased stomach. Tho stomach is a
powerful muscle, and the proper remedy
for a tired muscle is rest. Try the Shak
er Digestive Cordial, for this product
not only contains digested food, which
will nourish the system without any
work on the part of the diseased organs,
but it aids the digestion ot other foods

case for tho trifling oum of 10 cents.

I Companion of the Uos Star.
i Sirius, the dog-star, which is the
brightest to our eyes of all the fixed
1 stars, has a very remarkable companion,
never visible except with powerful tele
scopes. It was first seen in 1S(52, and in
Is'JO it disappeared, the reason of its
disappearnce being that it had moved
.o close to Sirius as to be lost to view in
the overpowering light of that great
star. During- the time ot its vjsioility
the fact had been ascertained that it was ,
revolving about Sirius cit a rate which j
would carry it completely around in
some SO years. The shape of its orbit, 1
which is an ollip.-e w ith Sirius situated
in one of the foci, being calculated, as-
tronoiners felt certain that in a few
year.s the vanished .star would reappear 1
as it moved into a, part of its orbit more '
distant from Sirius. This expectation i
has now been fulfilled, for recently the
mis-ing star was seen again at the !
lllagstiilT observatory in Arizona. Al-'
though it is probably half as large as
Sirius, it is but one-ten-thousandth part
as luminous as that .star. Youth's Com-

trade in imitation stones. People of all

A Hamburg young man has just had

a bullet in his head, which he fired into

keepers and the doctors could find no
trace of a wound, was locked up as a
dangerous lunatic. The Boentgen rays
lnve now shown the exact place of the

A Now Hurtflcal instrument.
An instrument which, as the name de
notes, is intended for the arrest of
bleeding in surgical operations, has been
perfected by Lawson Tait, of London.
A platinum wire, arranged to carry a
current of electricity, is inclosed m the
blades of a pair of steel forceps or any
other requisite instrument, the wire be
ing insulated by a bed of burnt pipe
clay. A current of suitable voltage is
turned on, the artery seized and com
pressed and in a few seconds the tissues
and arterial walls are so agglutinated
that the passage of blood is rendered
impossible. The temperature employed
is about ISO degrees Fahrenheit, so that
it will be seen that the principle is fun
damentally different from that of elec
trical cauterizing instruments. It is
stated that by Mr. Tail's instrument
the necessity of a ligature is removed,
and a new and completely effective
method is placed in the hands of the
Mirgeon for the treatment of surface
oozing'.
