HOW TO O'JD
Good for Peacn and for '.lost Kinds
of Stone Fruit Trees.
Keep a sharp unite. Cut the twig
from the tree from wlilc.i you wish,
-o bud. Cut out a vigorous bud. with
about a half Inch or more of bark and
wood below ths bud and about an,
eighth or a quarter of an Inch abovo
the bud. Cut oil the leaf In the axil
of which lies the one to within an
Inch or so Irom the bua leaving only,
the bottom as a handle to assist you
In the opera ion. Now ct't out all
tho wood from the bark save a very,
little under the bua Some cut it eu
tlrely out.
Cut through ine bark of the tree,
stock the letter T and with an Ivory,
or pollshtd bone blade or stmethlng

sufficiently to Insert easily the bud
and no more, then quickly smooth the
raised bark ove, the bark below and
above the Inserted bud. Wind and '
tie around the .ree stock and lnser-'
tion, commencing at the bottom,
strips of bass matting, leaving only
the bud exposert to the air. You can
tell within two o:- three weeks wheth
er the buds have set or not If they
do not tht budi. will dry up. shrink
and. die. but if successful they will ,
look vigorous. j
In from two to three weeks cut tho
strips of matting and remove them,
thus giving all a enance to expand.

do, they will ohoot forth and, weath
er an Insects permitting, in du
time will bear you an abundant har
vest. In the spring, after 'he bud ha
started to grow remove the top of
the tree or branch to within a few
Inches of tho bud, so that the sap
will more generall:1 flow Into It, and '
as the shoot ascenas tie it to the re-1
malning stock to prevent the winds I
wrenching and breaking It. Peach. '
trees are buddeu, and so are most
kinds of tone fruit.
Principles oi Plowing.
I'rof. V. M. Shoesmlth, of tho Ohio
Agricultural College, In a publication
of that institution, says: I
"Plowing is practiced mainly foe
two reasons (1) the turning under,
of stubble, manure, weeds and otheo
vegetable matter, and (2) the pulver
ization of the sol.. If manure and
stubble are left oil the surface cf th
soil, they prevtnt the proper opera
tion of surface working implements;! 1
and, furthermore, they decay very
slowly If manure Is mixed with tho
soil, it soon decomposes and becomes
available for the usa of crops. Plow
ing also makes ne soli mora loose by
giving It bate, drainage, and by
raaklne its capacity for holding water 1
greater."
Movlna Larai Tr
Large trees may be transplanted by,
digging around them In winter and
allowing the earth to be frozen solid,'
which makes a mass of frozen earth
and roots e.sy to be taken up and
dragged on a sleu away to the new,,
location. The place to which tbV
tree la to be moved should be pre-1
pared beforehand and covered wlti
enough straw and leaves to keep out,
the frost. ,

k3od culture '3 recommended by
some successful peach growers. The
soil is worked during the time the
trees aro growing, and a clover crop
Is sowed for fall and wlntor which is
plowed under early In tho spring.
Clover crops should not be left until
they suck up too must moisture from
the soli at a time when it is needed
by the trees.
AMATEUIt ENTKUTAINERS.
Do "Parlor Tricks" nnd You Mny
Sometime lie n .Miifilclnn.
Did you ever covet tho power of
tho mngiclan?
Did you over go to tho theatre, see
him snatch coins out of the air and
mako a plant grow out of tho stnge
lloor and then go homo and wish you
could do somo of tho stunts.
Of course you have. If you still
want to learn, hero's your chance.
On the q. t., a reporter for Tho At
lanta Journal has got tho Inside dope
on theso. tricks from one of the big
gest magicians in the country. Ho
draws $1,000 a week.
Most magicians start by learning
"parlor tricks" to work on their
friends. Hero aro a few that any
boy can perform:
This ono Is called tho "dissolving
penny." Go to somo glazier and
have him cut out a circular ploco of
glass exactly the size of a penny.
Hide this glass penny up your slcevo.
Mil a tumbler full of water and ask
for the loan of a handkerchief and
a penny.
Take the handkerchief, shake It
In tho air. This action helps you
bring tho glass out of your sleovo
OISSOCV"
wo eY
Into your hand. Allow tho handker
chief to cover your hand so ns to
keep the glass penny hidden. Then
pretend to shove the real penny up
under tho handkerchief. Instead
you drop it down your sleeve and
push the glass one up. Let somp
ono hold the handkerchief with this
In it while you push the tumbler of
water under the loose ends of the
handkerchief. Tell the person to
let go the penny nnd the glass falls
Into the tumbler.
Make a few passes over the tum
bler, let the spectators see the prn
ny has been dissolved. Then on
your way back to the table let the
penny in your sleeve slip Into your
hand and pretend to take It from
the tumbler.
Try tho "flre-proof handkerchief
trick.
Borrow n handkerchief and fit it
tightly over a brass or copper ball.
Aii old brass doorknob will do for
tho ball. With the tongs pick a red
hot coal from the grate and place It
on the top of the ball. The coal will
burn but' the handkerchief won't.
The reason Is that orass Is a better
conductor of heat than tho nandkor
chlef. The heat passes directly to
the metal.
Better try this trick with an old
handkerchief until you learn to do
U well.
Always talk and tell funny stories
during your tricks so as to take the
attention of tho spectators off your
hands.
Another good trick is done with
an empty egg shell. Rip out the
bottom of the pocket In your coat.
Drop the egg shell into the pocket
WITH A
so that It coes on tho floor, lean
against tho tablo while talking and
smash the eKK shell. The audience
will hear It and think you have brok.
een the egg In your pocket. Then
turn tho pocket wrong side out and
show them that there is nothing
there at all.
You can havo still more fun with
this trick by dropping four or flvo
empty egg shells In the pocket. Tako
off tho coat and smash tho eggs witn
a hammer. All you have to do then
is to turn tho pocket wrong side out
and show the spectators that It Is
perfectly empty and free from crush
ed eggs.
Childhood's Imagination.
Rarlv mental processes easily par
take of the fanciful. It Is for this
reason that many children lie. They
cannot differentiate truth and false
hood. They must learn by experl
enco tho difference between reality
ana dream impressions. Thero Is a
familiar story about a woman who
was seeking to teach her little girl
the value of truth. The girl had
been told the story of Annanlas and
Sapphlra. "Don't you know what
happened to them?" asked tho In
structor. "Yes," replied the child
Thov fell dead, and I saw them car
rlod into tho corner drug store." Yet
there was nothing wicked in this
youngster1, nor hopeless in her out
lood. Htlll her imagination could
not be said to need stimulating.

Blnford Ranch Has BOO Animals and
Others Nearly as Many.
Adair county Is one of the big goat
producing counties of Missouri, The
goats, says the Kansns City Star, aro
not raised for mutton alone, but alno
for the purpose of clearing up under
brush. They will go through a thicket
llko a rifle bullet and cat It to the
ground, peeling saplings nnd stumps
so that thoy will never sprout again.
The goats get as fat as butter balls
on such forage. Then they nre ship
ped to market nnd sold to city folk
for the choicest mutton.
Blnford Ranch, the largest stock
farm In this country, has produced as
many as flvo hundred goats In ono
yesr, which were shipped to mnrket
after the shrubs were cleaned off the
pastures. Soveral other ranches In
the county have producod nearly as
many goats.
Not Going to Take It.
Hamlsh was a thrifty Scot, and like
many of his race, an enthusiast over
golf. But one day Hamlsh had such
peculiar and unpleasant feelings that
he reluctantly consulted a physllclan.
"You've overdone the matter of
exercise, man," said the doctor, after
Hamlsh had detailed his symptoms.
'You must give yourself a day's quiet
now nnd then, and avoid exposure.
How often do you piny golf?"
"Every day but the Sabbath," said
Hamlsh rising.
"You mii3t be more tomperate at
it," said the physician. "Twice a
week In good weather is enough for
you."
"Good day," said Hamlsh, moving
toward the door.
"You've not paid me for my ad
vice." said the doctor, who knew his
man.
"Nao, for I'm nae taking It," said
Hamlsh, as he reached tho door and
made his escape. Youth's Compan
ion. Building a Reputation.
Young physicians In the smarter
towns have an Idea that appearing
very busy will help them greatly in
starting a practice. The following is
told by a Senator, Dr. Godfrey Hunter
of Kentucky. Dr. Hunter had n call
the afternoon following the hanging
out of his shingle and started through
town In his buggy at terrific speed. A
policeman stopped the enterprising
physician.
"Doctor," he said, "It Is against tho
city ordinance to drive at the speed
you are going. You must accompany
me to the Judge and pay your fine."
"What is the fine?" Inquired the
doctor.
"Five dollars."
The doctor's hand flew to his
pocket. "Here's $10; I have to come
back Just as fast as I am going."

Mysterious African Pool.
Describing before tho Royal Geo
graphical society last evening his four
years' wanderings In northern Rhode
sia, S. A. Neave referred to a large,
deep and mysterious pool In the val
ley of the upper Kafue river, north
western Rhodesia. This wonderful
pool, he said, lies In a flat country
and one comes to It quite suddenly, its
banks being concealed by dense for
ests. There Is a small native village near
tho pool, and the inhabitants havo a
superstitious dread of It. Thoy refuse
to drink the water or use It for any
purpose whatever. To sit beside this
still, pellucid pool of unknown depth,
surrounded by preclptous walls in the
heart of the tropical forest, would In
duce a feeling of awe In the breast of
even the most civilized man. Lon

Ear a Marvellous Instrument.
Wonderful as are the functions of
the eye the ear appears to be a yet
more marvellous Instrument. People
with good hearing do not appreciate
the Inexplicable delicacy of the little
Instrument that Nature has Implanted
on each side of their heads. But ana
tomists appreciate without being able
to understand It. There Is hardly any
trouble with the eye that they cannot
adjust, but not so with the ear, says
the Detroit Free Press. When its
fairy mechanism is Jangled and out of
tune It Is often Impossible to restore
Its functions. It is the greatest mys
tery of the human organism.
Meaning of Cemetery.
It la not correct to say that "ceme
tery" means the "city of the dead."
The word Is from the Greek "Kolme
torlon," meaning sleeping place, not
the place of the dead. There Is nothing
In the etymology of the word to war
rant us In thinking thaflt was orlgl
pally Intended to convey the idea that
the departed were really deud any
more than there Is In the old Hebrew
term for cemetery "Bethalm" the
house of the living.
"A Beaut."
The golden-haired song bird had
Just bowed to her audience when a
man rushed frantically upon the stage
and cried:
"Is there n physician in the house?'
A young man in the third row,
blushing with embarrassment, arose,
"Say, Doc," asked the man on ths
stage, with a Jerk on his thumb toward
the singer, "ain't Bhe a beaut?"
Life's Turning Points.
The Cllmarcteric years are certain
years In a man's life that were long
believed to be of peculiar significance
to him, as turning points In his health
and fortune. These aro the myBtlc

numbers, 21, 35, 49 and 63, The most
important of all was the 63d year,
which was considered fatal to most

FOR A t
Theme:
TRUSTING IN GOD.
BY GEORGE W. HAYNIE.
Text: 24. Ye cannot serve God and
mammon. 33. But seek ye first the
Kingdom of God and His righteous
ness and all these things shall be
added to you. (Matt. 6:24-33 Inclu
elve.)
Is this true? Christ said so. Then
It must be so, for If Christ's statement
is untruo in one point, it must be un
true in all. But, thank God, wo hnvc
tested Him In a few things and fount!
Him true. Therefore the positive
statement Is correct.
Hence the error of the Esaus who
proved traitors to the glorious who
soever will gospel. They failed to be
lieve the promise of Christ that all
these things should be added unto
them so far as It was to the glory ot
God and the advancement of Me
cause upon enrth. Either they fniled
to lay hold upon, Christ's promise, or
they were not satisfied with what they
believed He desired them to have
and, therefore, they went abbut In
search after "large things," more
money and prominence In the eyea of
the world, and that, too, in direct dis
obedience to Christ's positive com
mand which says: (31), "Therefore,
take no thought, saying, what shall we
oat? or what shall we drink? or where
withal Bhall we be clothed?"
Christ goes further and Illustrates
by the fowls of the air, which God
feeds, and nsks: "Are ye not much
more than they?"
He also calls their attention to the
llllies of tho field, nnd tells them that
'Solomon In all his glory was not ar
rayed like one of these."
"Trust in God and do good, and
verily thou shalt be fed," Is as troc
to-day as It was at any time since th
beginning of creation.
If these things are true, what's the
matter?
God's "arm Is not shortened tbi
He cannot save, nor His ear hew.
that He cannot hear." If your fellov
man showed by his actions that he d'
trusted you, then you would lni'vc
dlatoly become suspicious that t!x-i
was something the matter with him
That being so, should we expect (io
to trust us with "all these things '
when knowing all these things. He
knows we are not trusting Him to sur
ply them? Certainly not We lnvf
no right to expect Him to do any
thing for us unless we trust Him I id
pllcltly for tho things we want, aw
go about their attainment accordlnt
to Christ's command, "Seek ye firs
the Kingdom of God and His righe
ousness." When we follow His com
mand and trust In ills promises. w
will find them always true. Never w'l
they fall to stnnd the test.
I once knew a man In North Geor
gla by name of Miller Willis. Some
people said he was a fool; some said
crazy; more still called him a fanatic.
But he never started anywhere that
God did not provide a way. If he felt
that God wanted him In a distant part
of the State, he would Just go dovn
to the depot and there was always
someone there 'to buy his ticket. If
the place was off the railroad, he
would Just got his Bible and go to the
big road, and the Ixird always sent
someone along with wagon or buggy
to take Miller Willis where he be
lieved God wanted him. Why .Just
because Miller Willis was always
ready to "go where You want me to
go, dear Lord, and to be what You
want me to be.
What the Lord did for Miller Willis
He would have done for the Esaus,
who, Instead of trusting Him, went
off In their own way, hunting for
"larger things."
There being no chariot convenient
where Philip baptized the Enoch, God
Just picked Phlllp up and set him
down again where He wanted him.
Why? Because Phillip believed Im
plicitly that He would do so, and wns
willing to go or do Just as God willed.
What was true of Phillip nnd the
apostles, what was also true of Miller
WIIUb, of North Georgia twenty years
npo, would be equally as true of every
minister of the Lord Jesus Christ to
day It they will only sink absolutely
out of self Into Christ. The more of
self we have, the loss we have of
Christ. The less of self, the more of
Christ.
Then "lot us hear the conclusion of
the whole matter": Whenever we ab
solutely lose our Identity, when the
ego Is all gone and Christ reigns su
preme; ye can "ask what ye will nnd
it will be done unto you." Cumber
land Presbyterian.
A Prayer of St. Jerome.
Show Thy mercy to me, O Lord, to
glad my heart wHhal. Let me find
Thee, for whom I long. Lo, here the
man that was caught of thieves,
wounded, and left half dead, as be
was going towards Jericho: Thou
kind-hearted Samaritan, tako me up. I
am the sheep that is gone astray; O
good Shepherd, seek me out, and
bring me home to Thy fold again. Deal
favorably with me according to Thy
good pleasure, that I may dwell In
Thy house all the days ot my life, and
pralso Tbeo for ever and ever with
them that aro there. Amen. St. Je-

N MEAT IS DOME.
Scientific Device Worthy a Place In
Every Kitchen.
Cooks are accustomed to cut Into a
piece of meat when cooking, to prod
vegetables with a fork, and to um;
Blmllar primitive methods of ascer
taining the stage to which tho roast
ing or boiling process has advanced
Tho llrst rea'.ly scientific dovlco to
measure the temperaturo Insldo n
piece of cooking food has recently
been Invented In Copenhagen, Den
mark. It Is called a "tho mo needle,"
nnd consists of n thin motnl tube,
pointed at one end nnd containing a
spring held In tension by an alloy
melting at n specified temperature,
which Is that desired for cooking. Tho
melting of this alloy releases tho
spring and shoots up a pin as a signal
that tho desired temperature exists
In the Interior of the food Into which
the "needle" has been thrust. As tho
instrument Is withdrawn, tho pin Is
pushed down and held while tho fusi
ble alloy "sets." when the devise Is
ready for use again.
A Land Without Tramps.
Switzerland Is not a place for
tramps, because the man out of em
ployment nnd who makes no effort to
find work Is not tolerated for a mo
ment In that country. The district
authorities will secure him a Job at
hard labor and llttlo pay, and such an
offer can be refused only under tho
penalty of going to a penal work
house. These institutions are under
military discipline, the work Is se
vere, the wages a fnny or three
pence per day and rclcase'Is granted
only upon the advice of those In
charge.
In every part of Switzerland aro
established "relief i- kind" stations
for the exclusive i se of respectable
unemployed. Only those are admitted
who have had regular work during
the previous three months and havo
been out of employment for at least
five days. These men must be on tho
lookout for work and accept any situ
ation that Is offered, because the
chionlc loafer Is soon detected by tho
police and Mr papers are marked so
that he can re. or asaln seek refuge
In a "station."- Harper's Weekly.
Mischief Done by Gulls.
That many oi u,t- guiio navo become
far too numerous uuniig the last 15
or 2u years, tuunks to coddllnc and
ovx-itnucii protection, lias become a
patent tact to tnotju who observe and
unuorstand the huuita of these birds.
Here and there measureb are being
taken to lessen the plague, and by
some lew county councils tho protec
tion once accoided has been with
drawn.
Gulls are responsible for an eiior
mous destruction of fish, as well as
raids on tho eggs and young of vari
ous birds. In many parts of Scotland
the lesser black backed gulls have be
come the veriest vermin, in this re
spect rivaling the hooded crow and
common rook, the latter another re
cent development of unwise overpro-
servatton Country Life.

Thcro is a shocking proncness
among youthful Bengalis to kill them
selves on the least pretext. It seema
to bo an exaggerated form of sulkl
iiess, and one would like to havo a
medical opinion on the matter. A

A girl wife in howrah takes a dlslikf

She also secures an exit by the easy

Tortured by Piles!
Probably no one disease causes so much
pain and suffering as piles or hemorrhoids.
The victims are often in agony. Each
attack seems worse and more stubborn.
Work or business is impossible. The nerves
are racked, the system debilitated by loss
of blood and the end is an operation.
Piles are the penalty of neglect. The
one chief cause of this trouble is constipa
tion. When the bowels are clogged the
trouble begins. These sensitive, painful
tumors are the result. If you are afflicted
with piles begin witli Smith's Pineapple and
Butternut Tills at once, and get a full free
passage of the bowels without pain or
griping. Take two of these wonderful lit
tle pills at night and two more the next
morning. Then take one or two pills every
night at bedtime for a few days. You will
find that Smith's Pineapple and Ilutternnt
Pills will cleanse the entire system, purify
the blood, invigorate the liver and so reg
ulate your bowels that piles will disappear.
Thystcians use and recommend. They
form no habit. You should always keep
these little Vegetable Pills on hand. They
ward off many ills.
