I have often wondered'if the dress-

and women who eatinot sew.

,I have been more and more amazed
at the neglect of email things, 'which
mean so much economy in sewing.

I notice extravagance. *It ii-sa case

Orchard Sanitation.
This term hes been borrowed from
thas medical profession to deeignate
keeping the orchard free of sources
from- which various types of ilests
might gain access to our trees. Re-
moving or burning any trash which
may, be in the orchard, and burning
about the margins of the orchard are
the principal -lines of attack and with
some pests - are iery effective.
Perhaps the most important enemy
which we 'get at through this method
is the plum curculio, in many sec-
tions one of our most serious apple
insects, as well as being a menace to
Plume and peaches.
'But various.' types of leaf hoppers
also pass the winter hibernating in
such places_ and would thus be 'killed
by ‘-the burning. And since apple
scab passes the winter 6n the.. old
leaves about the orchard, just so far
as we reduced the supply. Of these
infected ol4,1 leaves by burning them
upe'we would sontrol this disease.
There are probably other pests
which might be affected to a certain
extent, but even with this list the
operation is wells worth while.

but ,,Robbie' arey cold" not conscien-

So he paused an his way, and sent
the skin spinning Into the glitter near
by.
• "Come on, Rob!" illouted` his com-

ahead. "Do come on, and leave that
old skin alone! Wh'it's the good of

."WhIt's the good?" -repeated Rob -

Vs. 34, 35. No wonder that the
Ethiopian was perplexed. Isaiah 58
is one of the grandest, but most mys-
terious, passages in Scripture, The
Jews debated Who was meant by the
martyred Servant, and gave various
answers. Some said he was Israel
personified, others thought that an
Individual was referred to. But the
followers of Jesus have discovered
the true answer. (theist, by His life
and death has fulfilled the prophecy
of the divine Martyr, So, Philip
preaches Jesus Christ to his deeply -
attentive lietener. .
Vs. 36, 38. Philip's great disclos-
ure regarding Jesus opens the Ethi-
opian's eyes, and makes a profound
-impression on his soul. He is con-
vinced that Jesus is the sacrificed
One Who was "wounded for our
traesgressions" and "bruised for our
iniquities." And so he asks for bap-
tism. Philip 'assents upon his con-,
fession "I believe that Jesus Christ
is the Son of God." The chariot is
stopped, and the Ethiopian is bapr
tized as a convert to Jesus.
V. 39. Philip's work being done,
