In Planting Follow Nature's Own Way as Much as Possible. The age nt which any nut trees come into bearing depends on the care given to the trees, Some authorities state that fifteen or twenty years are neces. gary to bring them into full bearing from the time the nut is planted. This js a mistake, ns trees that have been well cared for should bear a bushel of nuts in ten years, and the quantity will Increase rapidly each year after that time. Some persons may these trees from seed. is rather a slow process, but it is in. teresting work. When planting the nuts, if they have thin shells be per- fectly sure that they have not dried out at all. The best plan Is to get them as soon as they ripen and plant them at once. When this is not possi ble, keep them In moist sand or In sawdust until they can started. Butternuts, walnuts, hickory nuts and fillberts, being hard shelled, will keep in growing condition much longer, but should be planted in the fall, as they germinate better when allowed to freeze, ns that cracks the shell, The fall planting is nature's plan, and the nearer we follow wave the better results we may ex- pect. Another thing, do not plant the nuts deep. Nature drops them on the surface and gives them a thick cover. ing of leaves, in which the dirt catches as it blows about; then the snow cov- ers nll and helps the leaves to decay and form a covering of leaf mold for the tree to grow lu. —~BXchangs ROMANCE OF A NAME. Hugh Williams and a Series of Coincidences. Names have figured frequently in co- incidences, one of the most remarkable cases being that recorded of a series of men named Hugh Williams, whose es- capes from shipwreck are recorded by an HEoglish chronicler. On Dec, 6, 1664, accopding to this an: thority, the English ship Menla was crossing the strait of Dover and cap- sized in a gale, Of the eighty-one pas- sengers on board one was saved. name was Hugh Williams, On the same day of the same mouth in 1785 a pleasure boat was wrecked on the Isle of Man. There were sixty persons on the boat, Huogh Williams and his family. enjoy ralsing To be sure, it be own her survived the shock. On Aug. 5, 1820, a pienicking party on the Thames was run down by a coal barge. There were twenty-five of the plenickers, mostly children under twelve years of age. Little Hugh Wil ams, a visitor from Liverpool, only five years old, was the only ope who was saved. Now comes the most singular part of this singular story. On Aug. 10, 1880, a coal laden craft, with nine men, foun- dered in the North sea. Two of the men, each of whom was named Hugh Williams, an uncle and nephew, were rescued by some fishermen and were the only men of the crew who lived to tell of the calamity. —8crap Book. Herschel's Memory. Until he had become a very old man Bir John Herschel retained the strength of intellect and freshness of memory which enabled him to accomplish his great scientific work. Sir Henry E Roscoe in his autoblography records an instance when Herschel was seven- ty-four years old. One evening in 1868 I happened to meet him. He mentioned as an inter esting plece of news that a star re cently discovered had suddenly burst out into first or second magnitude, “Do you know,” sald Herschel, “that when 1 was at the Cape I observed a precisely similar phenomenon 7 He considered a moment and added, “Yes, it was In the year 1835." Again he paused but a moment and conclud- ed, “On August the 10th at 1 o'clock in the morning." In Terms of Pig.

INTERNAL PARASITES. Cooper's New Disco very has taught me many things. Not ist of which is that parasites i or tape worms as | tney arecalied are i responsible for an f immense amount tof suffering. # Thousands of these creatures f have been brought ito me by people } who have taken the New Discov- ery and Inow know that an immense amount of sup- posed stomach trouble is caused in reality by one of these parasites. man or woman may be afflicted in this manner for years and not realize the true cause of their suffering. When I first sold Cooper's New Discovery I did not know that the medicine would remove this trouble. I have since found that it invariably does so. The following letter is a fair sample of the symptoms as experienced by an individual thus affected: “I was always tired. My stomach bloated and the slightest exertion made me sick, weak and dizzy. My appetite was variable and a good nights sleep was unknown to mie. When I awoke in the mornings I had a bad taste in my mouth and a coated tongue. I heard of the wonderful benefits that were being derived from Cooper's New Discovery, and decided to try it.” “I'he horrible tape worm, sixty feet long that had been sapping my life away, passed from my system alive and Su rating after I had taken three doses. Now I have a splendid appe. tite, every trace of stomach trouble has disappeared and my digestion is good, I sieep well and am gaining in strength every day.” Nick Emmer. ick, 1344 Louis Ave., Milwaukee, Wis.
