She bad never been rich, aud she had had more Fo.lia,1 burdens to carrY thisa fall to the lot of moet women. "How have you ever done it?" reiterated -her friend, who had long ago lost the musi- cal skill which she had gained at an eic` pulse of years of study and thousands of dollars. "I have done it," replied the other, "b practieing fifteen minutes a day, whenever I could not get more. Sometimes, for Eeverril months together,. I have been able to prat!. tice two or three hoars earth day. Now and then I have taken a term of leseons, BO as to keep up with the times, but, however busy and burdened I have been, miless actu- alutyiil in bed, I have practised at leatt fifteen minutes every day. That has tided me over from one period of leisure to ab - other, until now I have still my one talent, at least as well improved as it ever was. with which to entertain my friends and amuse myself." It la amazing to those who have tried it to see what can be accompliehed by laying aside even a mall portion of time daily for a set purpose. You find your habits of re- ligitme devotion wavering. The cares of this- life are choking out the better growths. Seize a fraction of your time and lay it aside for reading the Bible and for prayer. If you take it as soon as possible after breakfast, yoa will be surest, to get it, Do not curtail your sleep for any purpose. the duty of sleep is just aa binding as the duty of prayer. Wainen will never amount to anything in any department until they learn that the care of their health is a sacred duty. , Do you find Your mental furnishings growing rusty and dim? By reading a good )ole fifteen minutes caeh -day, you can effectually renew your :mental vigor. ! You cannot master an art by workino fifteen minutes a day upon it, but the fruit of years of study in literature, music or painting can be conserved through , busy months by the devotion of a -few minutes daily, if you can get no more time, to hard prat:dee. Then the health can be gteatly benefitted by even a short stroll in the, open air when it is impossible to take longer ones. It is like the proverbial saving pf the pennies and gathering up of the fragtieents. The results are Simply astonishing. • Funny. Bits.

Most insect pests yield to sprinklings of belabor° in water or kerosene emulsion. Rose -bugs are not very trouble- some on a clay soil, and such a soil is • well adapted to their needs.

What is call- edan "open" winter is much more severe upon roses than is steady cold, even though it be below zero.
