TROUBLKBOMB INSECTS. —These may
infest your plants, and if allowed to
remain do much damage. Green fly—
not always green, but varying from
yellow to green according to what it
e& ts~ig the commonest pest and the
easiest to get rid of. You may bruise
them to death between your Angers
with a sponge or brush; but If you
merely rub them off, they fall down
only to jump up again. Better take
your plants out to the kitchen or wood
ghed, and there wash off all vermin.
This you can do with clean water. In
green-houses, fumigating with tobacco
smeke and dipping the crops never the
roots of plants In tobacco water are
the ways employed to destroy green
flv. Red spider is a minute insect, ex
ceedingly destructive and hard to era
dicate. It appears like brown, red or
yellow particles of dust, usually on the
under side of the leaves. Its presence
. is observeable by the seared, sickly,
yellowish look of the leaves. Frequent
and thorough washings with water
will remove It.
Scales infest If aves and stems, and
sometimes stick close to the bark as to
appear beneath It. They must be
washed, rubbed or scraped off. Mealy
bugs are covered with a white powder
and lodge on the under sides of leaves,
st leaf and branch joints, in wounds,
or anywhere where there is a ragged
place,* and have good choice for flower
clusters. They may be wiped or brush
ed ©ft, and, If in holes or crevices,
bruised to death by a pointed stl.k.
Tbrip is a nimble black insect, exceed
ingly pernicious, aud very fond of
ferns, ataleas, lilies of any sort, call
as and the like. Their work is discer
nible in rusty brownish or yellowish
blotches and tracings on the leaves,
which they very soon destroy. The
old or black ores are baid to kill. They
should be bruised to death by the Au
gers. The young or yellowish ones?
should be bruised by sponging. Better
take the inrested plants outside, wipe
oil the vermin with a sponge, shower
with clean water alterwards, and then
return the plants to the window. In
greenhouses thrips are killed by tobac
co smoke.
FLOWER GARDEN AND LAWN. —The
planning for the planting of ornamen
tal trees should have been done beiore
the time for setting them. Evergreens
may he left until later, and will need
more care; iheir roots should uever be
allowed to become dry. The lawu will
need a dressing ol some kind; ashes,
guano, or some feitilizer may be ap
plied; ue manure only when it is tiuo
and thoroughly rotted, with no weed
seeds alive in it. For new lawns upon
a heavy soil,sow Kentucky Blue Grass;
on light sandy soil, red top with white
clover, is besi; all the way Iroin three
to six bushels to the acre are advised.
Sow halt the seed in one direction and
eross-.-ow with the other half. This
work should be done as soon as the
land has been put iu the proper con
dition. Where sodding is to be done
first thoroughly enrich the soil, make
the surface even, and to proas the
sods down firmly use a board aud heavy
ponnder. If the walks and drives neeu
repairs, attend to them when the
ground haw settled. Beds of bulbs may
be uncovered as soon as the tro;t>
nights are over. If beds of flowers are
to be planted the designs should be
made, and titeir location In the gioucds,
and other details decided upon before
hand.
THE question is raised whether it is
right to color butter artificially. Since
the coloring of butter is probably due
to coloring matter in the food, as well
as to the power of the cow to remove
the same front the food, the question
may be asked whether these is auy
more wrong in putting the color into
the butter man in supplying food to
the animal which will cause the cow
to give milk, me cream of which will
make yellow butter. At all events, as
the coxotiog is now made irom harm
less substances, and tine colored butter
is as pure and good as the uncolored
(when properly done), and as the peo
ple preter me colored butter,we think
the bene fit of the doubt belongs ou me
side of the farmer.

Cast iron was not in commercial use
before the year 1700, when Abraham
Darby, an intelligent mechanic, who
had brought some Dutch workmen to
••tablisb a. brass foundry at Brlsto',
England., conceived the idea that iron
might be substituted for brass. This
his workmen did not succeed in effect
ing,being probably toomuob prejudiced
in favor of the metal with which they
were best acquainted. A Welsh suep
herd-boy named John Thomas had,
some time previous to this, been re
ceived by Abraham Darby into his
workshop on the recomendation of a
distant relative. While looking on dur
ing the experiments of the Dutch
workmen, he said to Abraham Darby
that he thought he saw where they had
missed it. He begged to be allowed to
try; so he and Abraham Darby re
mained alone in the workshop all night
struggling with the reiractory metal
and imperfect moulds. The hours
passed on and daylight appeared, but
neither would leave his task; and just
us morning dawned they succeeded in
casting an iron pot complete. The boy
entered into an agreement with Abra
ham Darby to, serve him and keep the
secret. He was enticed by the offer of
double wages to leave his master, but
he continued faithiul, and from 1709 10
1822 the family of Thomas were confi
dential and much-vaiued agents to the
descendants of Abraham Dai by. For
more than one hundred years after the
nightin which Thomas and his master
succeeded in making an iron casting
in a mould of fine sand contained in
liames and with air holes the same
process was practiced and kept secret
at Coitbrook Dale with plugged key
holes and barred doors.
A a recent meeting of the Roval Horti
cultural Society of England Air, Shir
ley Hibberd exhibited a lot of home
grown water ei esses, which created
considerable interest among the mem
bers. The display consisted of a series
of pans fifteen inches in diame.er, each
filled with a luxurious growth of the
tender cresses. The exhibitor claims
that the pan culture of watercresses
may be profitably pursued with the aid
of a Irame or cool plant hou3e during
the severest winter weather. The
cresses shown were produced in the
course of six weeks, aud had been daily
gathered for the table, thus showing
now rapidly and prolific they grow.
Acoording to the testimony of Mr. Hib
berd any one may supply his table
with this wholesome and delicious
salad any time of year without much
trouble or expense.

RAG CARPETS. —A lady of largo ex
perience, In making these carpets,says
that her way of collecting materials
for them is as follows: When a gar
ment is laid sside for good, my prac
tice is to rip It to pieces, wash tho
roughly, and cut, sew, and wind It
into talis. I have a tight barrel, with
a paper spread ever the bottom, and a
sprinkling of flne tobacco scattered
over It. I put my balls in the barrel
and every spring cut the rags at my
leisure. The children can sew and
wind them just as well as any one. 1
spriukle flne tobacco over the baUs,
and tuck an old sheet over them, cov
er the barrel up tight, and it Is all
right till 1 get ready to add another
contribution. In this way 1 get rav
rags ready and keep the house clear
from an accumulation of old, dirty
garments that are a nuisance any way.
In making a carpet I allow a pound
and a quarter of rags to till a vard of
cloth; for a room twenty-live feet
square I calculate to liaye about thirty
Ave or thlry-slx pouuds ot rags. It
there are any odds or ends left over,
they are woven into a rag, that oau be
spread betorc stoves or doors. I nevtr
expend time or labor coloring rags. The
last carpet, 1 made had rags enough
for seventy-eight yards, and 1 never
felt the labor at all; it was done at
odd jobs, and 1 was astonished to And
I had such a quantity flnlslied. Al
low three knots and a half ot warp to
the yard. The labor of reeling and
coloring the warps is the hardest part
of the work for me. I know ever se
many people who color and pass a
whole season over a carpet; but when
finished it is only aragoarpet. The pret
tiest one I ever saw was Just brown and
blue, narrow stripes of each and shad
ed from dark to light; a little black
was woven in to give the dark oontrast.
One reason why we eujoy rag carpets
is this: We are not afraid to use
them, aud when one is worn out we
can make another just as good. Sweep
ing carpets wears them out faster than
using them, by half. A stiff broom
should never be used on carpets, pick
ing up shreds and bits is the best way,
and brush the dust ofl with a soft
brush.
{Freeport, (111.) Bulletin.!
There Is now a substance which is
both professionally avid popularly in
dorsed and concerning which, Mr. J.
B. Fersehwclller, Butteville, Oregan,
writes: 1 have often read of the many
cures effected by St. Jcoab's Oil and
was persuaded to try the remedy my
self. I was a sufferer from rheuma
tism and experienced great pains, my
leg being so swollen that i could not
move it. 1 procured St. Jacob's Oil,
used it freely aud was cured.
A BIT of ainm kept near a wash ba
sin or towel rack and frequently rub
bed over the face while yet damp,will
do much toward removing tan and
preventing unsightly pimples. I have
never found anything better for can
kerous sores on the lips and tongue.
If mixed with vinegHr and water, salt
and pepper, it will euro ordinary sore
throat; grated and stirred in molasses
it is splendid for cioup. I have known
cases of to thache, when all the com
mon pungent remedies failed, to be
instantly quieted by inserting in the
cavity of the tooth a bit of moist cot
ttn sprinkled wlib equal quantities of
pulverized alum and salt. Keady good
bread can be made from growu wheat
If one tablespoonful of butter
are added to each ordinary sized bak
ing, and it is excellent in cheap mo
lasses cookies to give the desired
crispness when little butter is used.
A really good cement can be made by
melting a bit of alum and using im
mediately, but one must be quick or
the value will be lost. A gentleman
has just told me how he so thoroughly
deadened the nerve ola decaying tooih
that it has uot ached for years, oy fre
quently using alum that has been
dropped on a hot su,face and left until
it slopped "boiling." A piece the
size of a kernel of corn was not ail
used for one tooth. It i 6 good for
hardening cucumbers after b?iug
taken from salt brine.
PERPETUAL PASTE. —Dissolve a tea
spoouiul of aJuin in a quart of warm
water. When cold stir in as much
flour as will give it the consistence of
thick oream, being particular to beat
up the lumps; stir in as much pow
dered resin as will lie on a liall'-dime,
and throw in half a dozen cloves to
give it a pleasant odor. Have oil the
fire a teacup of boiling water in a
suitable vessel, pour the flour mixture
iute it, stirring well all the time. In
a few minutes it wiil be of the consist
ence of poriidge. Pour it into an
earthen or china vessel, let it cool; lay
a cover on; and put 111 a cool place.
When needed for use take out a por -

Paste thus made can be kept twelve
months- It is better than gum, as it
does not gloss the paper, and can be

Having had numberless Inquiries for
advertising cards from ladles In all
parts ot the country who are Interest
ed In the prevailing fashion of making
"Card Collections," we are having
printed for them a set ot seven beauti
ful cards, each In six oolors and on a
gold background, in the very highest
degree of art, Illustrating Shakspeare's
"Seven Ages of Man," Weliavespurod
no excuse lu these cards—they are
simply little art gems. Our only aim
has beeu to publish the finest cards yet
shown. Applications tor them have
coiue In so rapidly that nearly the
whole edition la engaged before the
receipt by us of the cards from the
artist. We have therefore been obliged
to adopt the.following plan for the dis
tribution of the remainder: No more
of the gilt Shakspeare cards, seven in
the series, will be sent excepting upon
the receipt ot a statement from & grocer
that the person applying for the cards
has bought of him ou that day at least
seven bars ot Dobbins' Electric Soap,
with price paid for same. All apply
ing lu this manner wUI receive the lull
set ot seven cards gratia bv mall. This
will insure us that our frianus and pa
trons get their share ef these beaulltul
designs, although it in no manner re
pays us for the costof the cards. Your
grocer has the soap or will get it, a<.d
the purchase by you of seven bars of
it at one time will secure for you gratia
seven really beautiful cards. The soap
improves with age, and is an article of
necessity in your house every week.
Therefore you are uot asked to buy a
useless article, but cue that you must
have anyway. Please send us your
application at once, and tell your lady
frluuds making "Card Collections," to
do the same. Grocers do not have the
cards to deliver. Buy the soap o! tkein,
send us their bill, and we will mail you
the cards free. Yours respectfully,

P. S.—Ladies not wishing to buy
soap can get the cards by remitting

MESSRS. NHCSTAKDTKB A CO , New York :
GENTS— For upward <f 20 vears 1 have been
aflheted with the Piles. Whin I first took
them they were blind and very paiuful. For
about ten years they continued as blind, then
commenced bleeding. The hemorrhoids con
tinned to increase until I wan losing at every
stool fully a gill of blooi, and frequently,
while stauding at my desk, the blood would
run down into my hoots. 1 have bai theie
hemorrhoids to lnt for several hours. In the
meantime, like a drowning man. I was grasp
ing a: everything, trying to find relief. On
; one occasion I had them cauterized, which,
after intense suffering for over a month, ef
fected temporary relief, for a short time euly
however. About ten mouths since, while at
stool, mv eye fell on an advertisement headed
in large letter i, "Piles, send 2 cent stamp and
get circular." I d.d so, aud received a few
"Plain Blunt Facts'' in reply, after reaiing
which, I ooncluded it wan such plain common
sense that I would give "Anakesis" a trial. I
did so, and the result was, that after a few
d iys use, the hi- eding oeased aud 1 have not
suffered a moment's pain since. It is said
tLat "a fellow-leeling makes one wondrous
kind." So, knowing qHite a number of friends
who were suffering like myself. 1 distributed
quite & numbor of them, aud fiom every one
received a favorable report. I would not he
without "Auakesis" for a hundred times its
oust. To all who are afflicted with Piles I
would say : "Give "Auakesis a trial and you
will no longer he a sufferer."
