with the single dablia. Its inner florets were removed, leaving the conspicuous outer ones, a piece of yellow leaf being placed in the center. No insects went to these honeyless flowers. But as soon as a drop of nectar was placed on them they visited them as freely as before. Again, Professor Plateau made artificial flowers with pieces of green leaf, each furnished with a little honey. These were freely visited by insects. But arti- ficial flowers made of colored materiz| were neglected, even when supplied with honey.

‘*In further support of his views Pro- fessor Plgteau is able to bring forwari the following facts as to the habits of insects in visiting flowers: They will pass freely and with apparent indiffer- ence from one color to another of va- rieties of the same species growing to: gether in our gardens; they visit a great number of green and greenish colored flowers; there are many small and in- conspicuous flowers which are also free- ly visited. Such is a brief outline of Professor Plateau’s observations and ex- periments, from which he believes him- self justified in drawing the conclusion that sight plays a very subordinate part in attracting insects to flowers. Their bearing on the theory of the insect origin of flowers is obvious.’’—London Times.

A Nervous Toronto Woman Walked the Floor During the Night for Hours at a Time—She Makes a Statement. TORONTO, ONT.—‘‘I was troubled

with nervousness. It was impossible for me to keep still andif the spells came

| over me during the night I had to get up

and walk the floor for hours at a time My blood was very poor and I was subject to bilious attacks, My feet would swell and I was not abletodo my own house- work. I treated with two of the best physicians here but only received relief for a time. I became discwuraged. One day a friend called and advised me to try Hood’s Sarsaparilia. I laughed at thead- vice but I was prevailed upon and pro- cured one bottle. BeforeI used it all I began to feel better. I took several bote- tles and also several boxes of Hood’s Pille. Now I can eat and drink heartily and sleep soundly. Hood’s Sarsaparilla has entirely cured meand also strengthened meso that I now do all my own work. I cheerfully recommend Hood’s Sarsapa- rilla to all sufferers from nervousness,

Scleptific Farming.

An agricultural editor of Chicago made a trip into southern California where he confidently expected to aston ish the natives with his superior know}- edge of scientific and successful farm- ing. He had stretched things consider- ably one evening with a view to mak ing a stronger impression, when one of the old residents, who spoke slowly and had a squint in his right eye, took charge of the conversation.

‘‘Il s’pose you hain’t heerd o’ my peach brandy orchi’d, mister. I reckon that’s bout sci’ntific as anything you been tellin us’bout. I got a certain way o’ treatin them trees so that I tap ’em in th’ epring, jest same’s you do a ma- ple tree, an by bottlin up th’ sap fur six months [ have th’ fines’ peach brandy youever put down yourswallow. That’s kerect, an I have a neighbor as kinder lays over mein farmin. He’s ’speri- mented an derveloped a punkin pie punkin. He tangled up milkweed, sug- ar cane, eggplant, water cress an some spice plants till he got th’ thing to suit th’ taste, an now all you have ter do is to bile th’ fruit an make yourcrust. He's got more boardin house orders than he kin fill in 1,000 years, Jest now °_. turnin my ‘teuition to th’ isisin vo’ u- ple dumplin’s, anI think by nex’ year I kin’’—

But here the agricultural editor gasp- ed for breath and the old resident called another old resident to help get the vis- itor to his hotel.—Detroit Free Press,
