are and residents on her square, and
they began to fight her. They raked
over the ashes of her dead past in hopes
to find something buried there which
would redcund to her discredit. They
named various individuals with whom
_ she had been involved in legal tusslcs.
But‘ Mary Sallade had had two has.
bands and frankly warned her enemies
that she had learned how to fight. She
wrote a newspaper letter detailing her
life history minutely and spreading out
thin with her own fair hands the ashes
in which they had hoped to make a find.
She laughed them to seem in a column
which shows she could have made her
fortune as uWar correspondent in busier
days than these piping times of peace.
Thus she “jaws” back other opponents:

\‘s’hent. Foil lit-cf and Pork.
The farmers of this country will learn
one great lesson from the peculiar con-
dition of the grain market. Never be-
fore in our history was wheat cheaper
than‘corn. The drought and failure of
the corn crop in many parts of the land
will make corn continue to be high
priced. The result has been in runny
places that farmers are feeding wheat
to their live stock instead of corn. Thoy
have found that it is even a better food
for the animals. (Jorn futons without

that of corn fed most. A mixture of the

time of year. Removed oht of the city
and into the country partly that he
might have windows on all four sides of
his house. It is reason enough for mov-
ing into the country.
Having the house in the country, with
its windows, Habbertou proceeded to fill.
such as were not needed for ventilation
with'Holland bulbs. He buys unnamed
mixtures of the bulbs at $2 to$3 a bun—
dred. It is well to give the orders for
them early in the summer, or even in
the late spring. In September he begins
to plant. One set sprouts up green,
buds, blossoms, fills the house with per-
fume and dies down. By that time an-
other set is bursting into bloom. and
the old ones are laid aside to rest. A
third of the stool: is planted in Septem-
ber, another third at Thanksgiving and
the last at the beginning of the year.
The culture of the bulbs is ridiculous-
ly easy. They need only to be potted in
good soil and watered plentifully after-
ward. Then put them in “the darkest,
coolest 'corner of the cellar and give
them a large drink once a week. ” When
the green cone of the bulb is about two
inches high, bring them into the light
and keep them in acool place, where
‘there is no danger of their being chilled
or frozen. The flowers from each plant-
ing will last six weeks. Habbcrton
grows eloquent over the glory and per-
fume with which they fill the huuiblcst
house.
Just the plain narcissus, hyacinth and
tulip give the most for the money. The
lively author warns readers against be-
ing bamboozled intdbuuying so called
rare bulbs at extravagant prices from
fashionable florists. His own particular
favorite is a uarcissus of the jonquil va-
riety, which bears the “good old Chan.
cerium, Spenscrian name of campcrnel. "
One bulb sometimes sends up as many
as six blossoms, fragrant as a carnation,
and of a yellow so radiant that it "fills
old foolish prejudice against yellow
flowers is disappearing. They inspire
with checrfulness. There is avividness
about them that is actually luminous,
like the sunlight itself. In this dark,
troubled world we need all the bright-
ness we can get, and the yellow color is
akin to light.
The Toothpick habit.
Next to the unspeakable habit of spit-
ting there must be reckoned in vileness
tho toothpick habit. It has grown till
now, heaVen lielpus,c\'en when people in ‘
so called good society give dinner par-
ties, there, snuggled among the wines
and flowers, is the vaseof wooden tooth-
picks. The host or hostess might just
as well put a toothbrush at each of her
guest‘s, plates and invite them to take
out their false teeth and cleanse them
then and there after the banquet.

The prowrhinl carelessness and slight-
lng of work by the plumber bids fair
to be exceeded by the criminal negli—
gence of those who put up electrical ap—
pliances. In the latter case, hotvever,
the results are far more deadly. Elec-
trical furnishing companies ought to be
put under hear y bonds and be held to a
strict accountability for all accidents.
These are becoming quite too common.
Live wires that are supposed to be. dead
wires kill with unpleasant frequency.
Lately a young man was instantly struck
dead by merely grasping the iron railing
as he went down a {light of steps. The
railing touched a tin cornice that was
above a basement. The basement took
wires for running a fan from an elec-
trical pole near by. The wires ran into
a supply box behind a sign that was
fastened to the cornice. The electrical
box took fire, the current ran from it
along the tin cornice and into the rail,
where it passed in full force through the
young man‘s body. He just stiffened
out, and that was all. Defective insula-
tion allowed the current to communi-
uitc tothecoruico. Defective insulation
is always the cause of the deadly acci-
dents. A few heavy suits for damages
which stop just short. of the point of
breaking them up altogether ought to be
instituted against the electric companies
that permit ignorant and careless work-
men to put up electric light win-s.
