STILAwsssxtan.—A London gardener
planted a strawberry bed four feet wide
across his garden, on one side of which
potatoes were planted. These were dug
up about the end of June, the ground
leveled and raked smooth, so that the
runners established themselves and form-
ed a new bed. The next season a simi-
lar process was pursued and thus a mov-
able strawberry bit was created. At the
end of three years the original plants
were exhausted ami dui, up. though the
bed annually grows wider without renew-
al or transplanting.

The cost of gas needlessly burned every
year in many a shop on the Main street

over the shop, dismiss one or twoser-

out of debt, and then begin to enjoy the
sweets of simple and independent living,
which had been ton long banished by in-

LEGEND „T THE PA•c:sIoN FLOWER. —It
was first discovered in Brazil and pre-
sented to the Christian Kingdom as
showing the passion of our Lord. The
'leaves are said to exactly resemble the
spear which pierced His side, the cords
that bound Him and the whip that
scourged Him; the ten petals are the
Apostles (Judas hating betrayed and
Peter deserted Him ; tie stamens the
hamster; the styles the nails; the inner
circle about the centre pillar was the
crown of thorns and the radiations of
glory; the white in the flower the em-
blem of purity; the blue the type of
heaven. In the Poae;doro olt,l, drops of
blood are seen on the cross or tree. The
flower keeps open three days and dis-
appears, denoting the resurrection.

and hind actions constitute it ? Are those

sidered true friends
Their attentions may be pleasant to
our vanity and conceit, and keep us in
the best of humor with ourselves, and we
may think their company very desirable,
yet they will not do to put faith in, for
their amiable behaviour is often the cloak
for self-interest

will show by acts rather than words that
he kindly regards us, is more -worthy id

else, even if the subject should happen

There is a mistaken impression at the
east that around up' means a general
gathering tot4ether of cattle from im-
mense distances, in one grand "bunch,"
at some general point of concentration.
Stich is not the cape. The oeiners, or
rancheros. are very numerous, and each
has his retainers. who are divided into
several groups of horsemen, each being
assigned a distri;t to work up. In this
way the vaqueros, or "riders," of one
owner may. if he is a large

tribute themselves over the home range

as bear the owner's brand, drive them in-
to a ''hunch." and leave their herdedun-

joinmg• range and "cut out" from the
"round up" there all the cattle belonging
to their employer in'the sante way, in no
case interfering with stock that do not
bear the pauper brand. Any unbranded
cattle found on the home range of an
rancher may be claimed and held by him
unless identification shall afterwards be
