The Cultivator says that there wcald be much leas discouragement to fruit growers and a great increase in the amount and profitableness of fruit grown if some way were devised to bring trees, after they have been set, to bearing more quickly than they usually do. It is usually the fault of the tree planter. He overdoes his work in try- ing to give the tree a good start. The re- sult is that roots and wood growth are un- naturally stimulated, and the formation of fruit buds is delayed. What is needed is suitable alterenation of stimulants and checks to growth, so that after the tree has atteined the Mae and vigor required for bearing the making of new wood will be stopped, and the energies of the tree di- rected mainly to the formation of fruit bud,. When the young tree is set oub ib has not enough size to hear more than two or three specimens, and so it is thought not to be worth while to keep the tree in the bearing habit. So the surface soil is culti- vated and possibly manured in order to stimulate growth.. Usually the tree blos- soms, but this exceses of plant food pro- duces so much sap that the blossom drops off without setting any fruit. It is usually not until the trees grow too large to be cultivated and are sown with grain and seeded down that the grewth is sufficiently - checked to indnoe the formation of fruit buds. Then toomany form and the whole energy of the tree is devoted to maturing its fruit crop, giving no opportunity for starting buds for another year. Sentenced to Death. "You are in the laet stages of Consump- tion and cannot live More than a month," were the words of doom heard by Mrs. Rosa Richardson, of Laurel Springs; N.

It is better to be kikt bi a mule than to be praised by a fool. He who knows a gratemenny trades iz sure to be master ov none. No man ever shouldered a ton yet, either bi the aid ov tears or prayer. Man's pashune make him more terrible than enny beast ov the dessert. You kan't make a man think according to law ; you may make him sat so. There hi no. labor main invenshun that kompare with the eye ov the master. What a man gets unjustly iz harder to hang onto than the hot end ov a poker. There iz a grate difference between a brave and reckless man, avd the two should not be konfoundsd. Children are constant anxiety. The only time we kan konsider them safe iz when they are fast asleep. Poverty iz not dishonorable enny more than sickness i ; it iz only the cauze ov it that may be dishonorable. One cm the most diffioult things in a man's karaoter to judge ov iz the aktual amount ov happiness he iz posfeesed ov. Everethe bees will rob a weak hive ov Its bunny ; just so a weak nation falls a victim to the neighboring strong one. Happinness haz been defined so often arid in so many different ways that I am almost ov the opinion that it doesn't exiet at all. The only way to find out about a man iz to set him on the top round ov a, ladder and then stand off and take a good square look s at him. The best hits that have ever been made hav been made just as the boy hit the wood. cook on the fly -hi picking up the fast stone he could find and lettin drive without tak- ing aim ; and the boy and the woodcock, both were astonished at thereault. • Her Head a Fright. 44 Large sores covered the head and face of our child," writes C.

Hie Royal Highness retains de- lightful memories of certain cruises made by him on board one of the Royal yachts, dur- ing the weeks which immediately followed the accident to his knee -joint ; and both he and the Princess ascribe his complete recov- ery greatly to the fact thet.the long peria of convalesence was orient on board ship, one of the Royal yachts having been converted, for the nonce, into a delightful floating hos- pital. It is a touching fact, and one which well , illustrates the beautiful nature of the Prin- cess, that every one of the appliances, costly ! orl the reverse, found to be of use to the P ince, was included in the elaborate fittings ' of her hospital ship the S. S. Princess of ales ; and this although of the whole Ise- . co11modation only two per cent, is reserv. edl for officers, the rest being entirely given ov r to that most fortunate of " absent minded beggars," Tommy Atkins. 1 : o take one example of Her Royal High- nets's thoughtfulness and intelligent care for ; the wounded soldiers, says a writer in the Sunday Strand for February, by an ingen- io ti device every one of the two hundred cots can be lifted away from its stand, and co; veyed with its precious burden to the • pr menade deck. : All the Princess's patients, as they are : alrieady affectionately called, rejoice in lux- - urious spring mattresses, and literally an abundance of cool, snowy white linen; while, i the moment the occupant of the cot is 1 able to alt up and look about him with interest and pleasure, he notices, literally at his elbow, a convenient bed table whioh can either be laid fialt.acrote the counter- pane for meals, or sloped sten angle to hold a book, a magazine, or a sheet of letter paper. It is easy to imagine the pathetic and quaint epistles penned ander such condi- tions often, no doubt, .with the help of o e of the devoted group of nurses who for the least attractive feature of the Pri cese's ship. "I want all my nurses," Her Royal High- ness is reportedito have said, "to be both motherly and sisterly." And, after all, among the most importait duties of the modern army nurse is that f providing sympathy and spiritual help o her charges. Those old fashioned people who are apt to regard electricity as a fad of the moment, would quickly ,change their minds if it fell to their lot to alternate for a fewliays be- tween a vessel so lighted and weighed, and one of the older kind. Here, again, thoae to whom were zonfided the practical arran- gements of the Princess of Wales were given an absolutely free hand, and were assissed by the invaluable advise of the Prince, who has kept up to an exceptional degree with electrical invention. Never has water power been harnessed to more purpose. In addition to the usual electrie lamps and globes, with which by; this time all the world has become familiar, each ward is embelished by a dainty cooking stove, which, by the help of electricity, can turn out in a few moments boiling water, arrowroot, or beef tea. The whole of the laundry work 011 board ship is also got through in a miraculously short space of time by the same potent agent, and, thanks to its aid, every mime, however rough or sultry the weather, can always appear spotlessly arrayed in cotton frock and white cap and apron, as if she were preparing to appear at the nurses' gar- den party at Marlborough house. What a change from the laundry experiments made by the gallant group of army nursing sisters who went through the Zulu -war of 1878? Then the only way in which caps and aprons could be "got up," was to stretch them be- tween large atouee bn which the ;natives wore put to sit in rows. Again, electricity is being used to good purpose in what is, perhaps, the most char- acteristic section of this wonderful Palace of Pain, that is, the operating chamber. It is on the lower deck amidships, and its most interesting feature to mot people is, undoubtedly, the admirable Rontgen Rays apparatus. This was given to the Princess hospital ship by the Duke of Newscastle- himself a distinguished amateur photogra- pher, and thus fully asvare,of the value of an invention which, according to Sir William MacCormao, "may be said to have revolu- tionized military surgery." Tq turn to a brighter side of life on board Her Royal Highness's hospital ship; those happy warriors who find themselves well on the way to convalesence have reason to feel thatf they have been as little neglected in health as they were in sickness. Their gen- tle patroness seems to -have made an appeal to all the younger Members of the royal family. The two daughters of the Duke and Duchess of Connaught, who take a very special interest in the army, must have worked long and earnestly at the delightful lounge dressing gowns in which those pat- ents who are well enough to sit up in the deck chairs -provided by the bounty of another royal lady -may envelop them- selves. The three Princesses, after whom the smaller wards are named, not content with providing all sorts of little luxuries for the wounded who occupy severally the Victoria, the Maude and the Louise wards, are repre- sented by quite a library of entertaining books, and of gables which can be either played alone or by a couple of invalids. As soon, too, as a man is considered welf enough to enjoy the solace of a pipe, he will have his choice between a good cigar and a first-rate briar, of a pattetn specially chosen by the Princess as being a favorite of her sailor son, the Duke of York. "What will Netley be after this ?" many a poor follow mild murmur to himself, at li@ surveys the large airy ward, or, better still, the sunlit deck, studded with neat, active Sisters'each wearing the pretty white liners brassard on which glances triumphant the eight -pointed arose of St. John of Jerusa- lem, while on the upper arm the Princess coronet and the letter"A" are a modest reminder of her to whom all these good things are owing. Life goes on very peacefully on the Prin- cess hospital ship. A momentary excite- ment in caused when a British vessel heaves in sight and exohanges cordial greeting; with the beautifnl Palace of pain, which, painted white, with the Mercy Cross in red, tells its own story even at a considerable distance. • What Worried Her. The fAverpool Poet says that a firm in Liverpool, being delighted at the idea that one of its employees was called upon to join the reserves, at once volunteered to pay half his wages to his wife in his absenoe. At the end of a month the woman ap-' peered, and the moiety wad at once given her. 4 4 What ?" she said, "four pounds 79 " Yes," replied the senior partner, " that is exactly half ;, sorry you are not satisfied." "It isn't that I'm not fiatiafied. Why, for years he has told me he only got 16 shil- lings altogether, and -and -if the Boers don't kill him, I will."
