Obamberlain. In my garden I have shade conditions to overcome and for a time could not make a seccess of anything except spring bulbs, which blossomed ahead of the . shade of the trees Lately I have filled the soil full of half -rotted ma- nure in the. fall or spring end put it on the surface in summer. It will not do to feed too heavily or to uee fresh. manure where small -seeded an- nuMs are to be raised, as they do not like the ammonia that is liber- ated so freely by it. It is useless to plant flowers with- out using considerable fertilizer of some kind and stable manure is of the hest, as it keeps the soil,in good texture, A well -nurtured plant will winter almost without special care, but in poor soil less hardy perenni- als disappear over winter. Such feeders as roses and dahlias will grow in poor soil, but seldom repay the trouble, besides roses, or any plants having insect enemies, are much less subject ao their ravages when in vig- orous condition. The best method of fighting insects is with the water hose. Set it strong and fire every- thing living off when too small to return. A big syringe will answer where water pressure is not to be Does anybotly have trouble with pot plants? Plant raisers seldom awake to the fact that when a plant is doing poorly it is because the soil needs changing. This is easily Pre's- edby taking the plant out of the pot when it will usually be found that there is a lot of soil with no roots, in which case .the soil is .yery often sour.

"What do you mean?" he asked, in a husky, dogged TOICO. "I mean," she whispered, "that the shame of a crash and exposure would cling to David for life. I may not be able to influence you, but I know that he has been drawn into it un- consciously. Let me warn him of what may happen, even.if it leaves him no alternative but to give up , his position here and start life anew." • With his lips Set hard, Mr. Foskett rose and pointed. "Go!

Enough that your dread is all imag- ination, and that in three months' time the shares will be standing at a premium in England" Mechanically Sheila passed.the door of the private staircase leading to the living portion of the hand- some mine -estate office.

To stand before a kinetoscope and see there reproduced the actual pul- sations of your own heart, to note in the flying squares its location and appearance, and to deLiherately count its strokes—that is the startling possibility opened to mankind if the experiments now being made by Dr. M. X. Kassabian, of Philadelphia, aro successful. The result is to be reached by the combination of a powerful Roentgea ray and'et specially contrived photo- graphic apparatus operated on the principle of the kinetoscope. This machine, if constructed, would Ile so thned as to correspond with the pel- sations of the normal human heart. The proposal to thus may bare the innermost secrets of anatomy was suggested by Dr. Kassabian in a paper read before the convention of the American Roentgen Ray seciety in Houston hall, Unit -cavity- of Pen- nsylvania. It aroused instant, af,:, tention, and has been the subject of widesprea,d comment. LNSISTS ON FEASIBILITY. Dr. Kassabian was disinclined to predictions when interviewed, but he is eaxnest in his opinion of its fees,- ibility. Thus faia his experiments have convinced him the only pro- blem lies in the construotion of a. photographic machine adapted to sweet eider, the juice and grated rind the work. of 2 dranges, the Juice end grated "The advance in X-ray app -ii- - maces," said Dr. Kassabian, gether with the skill now being shown in the operation of the ma?, chinos, makes the moving picture of the heart's action entirely practical. Formerly a single X-ray photograph took from two to four minutes. Now one can be secured in a second or less. The pulsation of the normal heart is seventy-two strokes to the minute. A photographic Maethine on the kinetoscope principle would show the dilation'and contraction a the heart and elle action of the diaphragm with mathematical ex- . actness.
