But I must get back to The Ayr Advertisers report-

Dr. Hill continued: "Suppose we plant two lots-(here the lecturer drew the lines of i/wo bale on the stage with his shillelagh) —suppose them (i, e.. the potatoes) in these two-(pause) —parlors' we'll call them. (Great cheering). Well, tne bod that's forced like celery will be wetter-slain the first or second week of August. but the other that I manage will have no disease. or ma?

At this stage the profemor took a drink of ale and then re- sumed: "Well, gentlemen. about the stagnation of the potatoes - (laughter) — about the disease of the potatoes and the stagnation cf the human blood — (laughter) - there’s no mistake in this. that I've fetched the dead to life ne- fore now.

The lecture with its ludicrous ac- cident, will appear in its final in‘ stalment next week. Island lnrnamee: Mallett. ' On reading Lord Lyttorra histori- cal romance entitled “Haroldfl I was interested to learn that Guil- ~ume Mallet was one of the Knights who fought for Duke Vlfi). liam (the Conqueror) at Hastings in i066. Guillaume was the Nor- man way of writing William.

When Itou. or Rollo. a roving Norwegian pirate, landed in Hence and became the first Duke of Nox- mandy in A. D. 917i. he was a..- companied by “a bold Norwegian named Mallet." Guillaume was o linealwiucendent of this man. but his mother was a Frank (French), so he had "a shrewd wit and e railing tongue." says the book. Nev- ertheless he was honorable and chivalrous. quite unlike his crafty and vindictive leader.

Mallet is a genuine Scandinavian name to this day. so that it has a history of more than one thousand years behind iti

As in the case of the other Nor- man knights, Mallet was granted estates in England by King Wil- liam. Under the law of Primoganr- ture the estate descended to his eldest eon. leaving the other ehil. dren unprovided for. Some would enter the Church: some might ax.- list under foreign potentate : ai worst they might drift into‘ the ranks of the peasantry. This ad- justment was severe on the in- dividual. but good -for the coun- try; it gave libagland the finest

An experiment with Bracken There was a. patch of this fern on the roadside near my lane. I cut it off close to the ground and await- ed results. Soon a fresh lot of ferns covered the ground. and when they seemed full grown, were cut down also. No more came up. though fifteen or sixteen years have passed. The first plants had grown underground shoots in readi- ness for the following spring; but when the fern is cut down and the sunlight warms the ground. th- shoot is deceived, as it were. and grows right away. Then when it is cut. the root is exhausted. Worm tn Rhubarb.
