an entire section of the veranda is to

purpose nicely, -
+Clematis and Honeysuckle
•
Star clematis (clematis panieulata)
is another beautiful vine for such use.
It often stills down to the ground dur-
ing the winter, but fortunately tit
roots seldom die. After the first se
son It Is a rapid, vigorous' grower, D
Ing the hitter part of August it nom
pletely covered with a snowy mase 0
small white star-shaped blotssonts. A
there Is a scarcity of flowers among all
shrubs and perennials at that season,
ifs bloom is particularly noticeable at
that season of the year.
Honeysuckle is another goad porch
vine. It is"a vigorous grower and sel-
donrinjured by the -winter. The vine
requires trellising. The bloom in
similar tp wild honeysuckles but is
larger and very fragrant. if the honey-
suckle is kept heavily m=Lehed with
manure it will bloom some during
most of the summer. 91 a vine is
wanted for a shady location or for the
north end of a porch honeysuckle is
preferable to any ether vine,
Matrimony vine 1s frequently used
on porches, but has an undesirable
tnndenvy to become so dense and
heavy that it proves attractive as a
roosting place for birds,
Stone, brick, cement and stucco
lienees and bull/Singe of all kinds can
be improved in appearance by the use
of at least a few vines. No matter
how attractive the construction ma-
terial of such buildings, it can be
made even more pleisfng to the eye
by concealing a pert of It with a mass
of dark glossy -green foliage. Plain
flat surfaces and buildings with tall
straight lines are specially improved
by the use of clinging vines.
Clinging Vines for Stone and Cement.
Boston ivy Is perhaps the best vin
for this purpose. It grows beet on th
north, east and west exposures of
building but can be used on the south
side although it will killback to not
extent during the winter. Boston ivy
should be more frequently used: on
cement e�ilou. Plant several vines O
the north side of the silo. Alway
avoid planting on a south expasur
when possible. An olt1 wooden build-
ing which has become unsightly can
he completely covered be a few years
with this vine. It will cling to wooden
surfaces.
Five -leafed Ivy (Virginia creeper)
will cling to reugh w'rt11s, but .some
tines It beconlee so heavy it provides
e nesting and roosting place for spat'
rows.
Englontanee ivy 19 a variety of five
leafed ivy w'hlcl, is a much better
climber and of a" little denser foliage.
It is preferable to the five -leafed, es-
pecially where it to be used on ratli-
er 911100th stone surfaces, as it has
many more "pods" with which to fast
en itself.
Vines for the Fence, Windmill and
Pergola,
Victoria is a vine which Is frequent•,
ly used onwindmills and arbors. I
is a rapid grower once it gets Started.
The blooms are the Size of large bunch-
es of grapes and can be had in several
different colors. It Is sometimes used
on porches but becomes rather heavy
For such a location and is not inclined
t0 bloom so well as when given more
sunlight.
Rambler or climbing roses should
, be used along a feuce or over a gar-'
den gate or wall.
Care of Vines.
The soil close to the`fottndation of
• a building is always -drier than the soil''
a foot away. For this reason all vines
1311011d bo plauted at least tett inches
awns from the foundation line and
trained over to the building., Like
trees, they require a plentiful supply
of manure. Never put mestere with
the soil about the roots, of any plant,
The manure Is best spaded in around
the vie* after It is set lied at least a
bushel should ba left on the surface
of the ground around 'tlt-e plaint for a

That was. the symbol of your wrath
Has malted by the garden path,. !

If you visit Stonehouse, a part' 0f
Plymouth, England, you will notice a
number of eh -ort streets called "oyes,"
The word is an abbreviation of "open-
ing" and is applied to streets which
open from one main street into an-
other. There are several in the neigh
-
lyorltood of. the Marine Barracks,
In Perth and in other Scottish towns'
similar streets are mated "vennels,"
Inverness, Glasgow, and Dumfries all
have vennels. The name is French in
its origin and probably dates from the
days of Mary Queen of Scots.
In other parte of England tbere are
French names for streets. In almost
any town you may find a Row. Lon-
don has many. The word is really
"rue," which is French for "street."
Then there are "causeways," of which
a well known example is Newington
Causeway, Causeway does not noes
steely refer to a raised road, as is gen
orally supposed, but is derived from
the French word, "chaussee," which
means a paved street.
Spital is not an uncommon name for
a street or road in Scotland or the
North of England. The word is simply
a shortening of hospital. Wherever
you find the nante you may be certain
that even if there is no hospital there
now, such a building once stood near
by.
I11 other Northern towns you find
"gates" such as Cast.egate, Trongate
Seagate. The "gate" is not to be
taken in the modern. significance as a
portal or gateway, but is derived from
a. Scandinavianword meaning road.
I•Iigh street is the name of the-prin_
stet street in almost every small town
in Great Britain. Here, again, few
people are aware that in this case
"high" does not mean raised, but mere
ly "chief." Its meaning is the same as
Main street, so popular in this Oen-
try.

Doctors—Then and Now.,
In the old days when 1 bad a kink i
my system I went to Dr. Jones;
A nd he'd tell me to say oh, and hit
a wallop In the ribs,
And ask how the wife was, and ho
the kid was getting along a
'high school,
And he'd write a prestriptlon
That tasted as bad as it looked
And nearly as bad as it smelled.
Bat it did the trick. It would have
put considerable animation
Into one of those statues with the
baggy trouser legs
Up in Queen's Park.
And then, a year or two afterwards,
I'd pay his hill "
After Iel_paid every other darned thing
I owed.

'MOTHERS PRAISE
BABY'S OWN TABLETS
TS
Mrs. L. M. Brown, .Walton, N.S.,
says: -"I Cannot recommend Baby's
Own Tablets too highly. Iheve found
them invaluable for the aihnents of
little ones," Mrs. Brown's testimony
is the same as that of thouseands of
other mothers `who have used the Tab-
lets. To use them once :a a sure guar-
antle'e-that they will always be kept in
lime the e as long as there are babies
or young children to be cared for. The
me Tablets are a laxative --mild but
thorough in action—..which never fail
1v to regulate the stomach and bowels;
t relieve constipation and indigestion;
break up colds and simple fevers and
make the dreaded teething period
easy. In fact they banish all the
minor ills from which little rives sof-
fer. The Tablets are sold by medi-
cine dealers or by nail at 26- cents a
box from The Dr. Williams' Medicine
Co., Brockville, Ont.
Nowadays when I have a pain
I take tt to a specialist.
- Ile has one of those hard -Meshed
white valspar nurses
That scares the heart out of me.
She puts the into a card index,
With the story ofmy past life and my
thumb prints,
Then she shows me into an Inner room.
It's white too, just like a cafeteria,
Only there's nothing to eat.
And the specialist gives}ne a cold look
and says, "Sir there,"
And I sit.
Then he opens up his toof kit and boils
his tools a while.
And when he thinks they're done
enough
Ile inserts them into my eye, ear,
nose and throat.
When they make me squirm, he gives
me a dirty look,
And. I stop sgpirming.
At last he says hethinks he may b
able to do something for me,
If I'll have an eye, an ear, nose and
• throatcutout.
And I say I'll think about it.
You bet I will!
And I totter out the wrong door,
But that white, hard -finished nurse re
trieves me,
And says, -"That will be tea dollars
please."

Six-year•old Freddie, from the city,
was on his first visit to bis uncle's
farm. At breakfast, he beard that the 1
uncle's Jersey 'cow had been stolen'
during the night.
"That's a good joke on the man who
stole her," was Freddie's comment,
"Why?" asked his uncle.
"'Cause, just before supper, last
night, the hired man took all the milk
out of her."
