HYMN Iva CHRISTMAS. WY' F. F. Rockwell, author of ".A.rolincl the Tear in the Garden" and "Mak- ing a Garden of Small Fruits," etc., in Philadelphia Record.) It there is anything In the world that *lakes the lover of plants feel discour- aiiesd, sick and hopeless, it is to have a beautiful rose, a ohoice perennial, or a new shrug "'upped in the bud" by some disease. When inseets are guilty of the outrage. one can at least get back at them, TheY can generally be poisoned, or at the Worst, you can pick them off and burn them, or step on them! But the insidloue plant disease, that works so gradually that its presence is hardly realized until the danger is clone, le more exasperating and much more enticult to control. Now the first and most iraportant thing to learn tn fighting plant dbrease is— They cannot be "cured," but they can for the moat part be prevented. The mistake that most people make is In letting a plant disease become estab- lIshed before doing anything about it. Then, in nine cases out of ten, it is too late. Under these circumstances, the meat that can be hoped Mr is to "con- trol" it, to prevent it front spreading to other plants, To do this, frequently the plants first attaelted have to be sacri- ficed entirely—pulisd up and burned, That is, of course;1'where the "cure is worse than the disease," but it is the only way to prevent the disease from be- comieg general . "But," asks the gardener beginner, "are 31000 of the many sprays that are adver- tised for plant diseases any good at all?" Of course they are, but only if used intelligently. One might as well expect to hunt birds with shells that have been soaked in the washtub over night as to control plant diseases ,by using these %sprays in the way they are often used. The reason is simple. Most diseases, while they first attach the plants on the surface of the leaves. Soon enter into the cell -structure, and are distributed through the interior of the plant, and thus get beyond the reach of any spray applied ' to the surface, Take, for instance, the ordinary "blight," of which there are various forms at- tacking many different plants, ,This disease is "distributed" by insects, carried through the air, and by other Means from infected plants to the sur- face of the leaves of other plants. These spores, which are floating around by the Millions, though so microscopical as to he invisible, take root and grow on the isurfaee of "leaves" when conditions are faVorable. The only effective way of preventing the disease from spreading, therefore. Is to make cenditions such that the snores Win he killed, when they alight on the leaf surface, and before they have had 'Woes Phosphoaiso. The Great English _Remedy.

The Turkisb. crescent, although now regarded as essentially Mohammedan in significance, is, it appears, of Oltristiaa. origin. .A, creacent moon was the einblem of the Byzantine Em- pire and the Eastern Church. The Turke adopted it as a: badge of tri- lumph atteeeller capture ot Constan- tinople iii 1453. 'With reference to the crescent, the story of the origin of the oreecent shaped Vienna roll is of curious in- terest. It arose in the sixteenth cen- tury, when the Turks were besieging Vienna. Failing to carry the oily by assault they began to mine the -wails. At that period the city's bakehouse& were in the walls under the fortifi- Cation% and when the mines were Al- most through the sound of the work Was heard the underground bake- houses, and an alarm was given, To celebrate this event the batere. of Vi - cone adopted the Turkish emblem as the form in which to mold and bake their bread.

It is, therefore, potable to protect them by keeping the plants to be protected wen covered with a. Bordeaux mixture spray. It is evi- dent, however, that this must be applied adavrice% and also applied frequently enough, to 1Seep the new growth covered. It has been proved by experience that by spraying plants every week or 10 *eV; Will afford protection, in most cases, to keep them healthy. where plants that were sprayed have been attacked and ruined by the disease. It will bat re- quire an average of over ie minutes a 'week most home gardens to spray the floWere, perennials and shrubs, that need to be protected. While Bordeaux can be made at home for use In small quan- tities, it is more convenient to buy it. .All thet is required is to mix it with cold water. It Is, therefore, e very sman task to do this spraying as a routine gar- den job, just as you cultivate. Another effective preventative against Moat fungus diseases are preparations of Ilnie and sulphur, "Fungaeldes" of this character are on the market under ved- ette trade names, such as Sulfolium, Jeers ind, etc. Most of these preparations are reliable. but of course, directions should be followed most earefully and accurate- ly. Many people seem. to have the Idea that any kind of a spray will kill or cure any kind. of. a bug or disease, no matter luiw it is bandied.

If you want to cure corns, "Pittnatn'e" is tb.e only thing—try this painless remedy, 25e at all deal- ers. WHAT IS PAIN AND WHY DOES IT HURT? Pain is the result of an injury to Some pert of our bodies, or a disturb- ed. condition—a change from the nor- mal eandition. Pain its caused by nerves in the body, The network ot nerves coining in big nerves from the back bone or spinal chord branches out in all directions, and near the surface of the skin they spread Mit like the tiny twigs ot a tree, covering every point of the body. Some parts at our nerves are more seneitiVe tiaan others. That is because the nerves etre then nearer the surface or else there are more nerves in that part. The heel is perhaps the least sensitiVe part of the body, ae the nerves do not lie so near the eurface there. Pain is' not a thing which you can nialte a picture of or 'de:scribe in Words, Pain is a aensation of the brain caused by a clisturbanee of con- ditions la some parte of the body. If you cut your finger, you cut certain veins or arteries aad also the tiny nerves of the finger. The nerves im- mediately ldt the brain know that they are injured, and the brain. seta to Work to have the damage 'repaired. But there is a congestion right -where the cut is. The veins being cut; the blood which 'would ordinarily flow through themkback to the heart, pours out into the cut and the inside ot. your finger is thus eXpoSed to the oxYgeu of the air, and the action of the air on the exposed part helps to make the pain. It is not your finger, however, that hurts, It is the shock that your brain. gets when you cut Your .finger that hurts. .A pain ip your stomach is a pain caused by something else time a cut, If the stomach eould alwaye digest everything or any amount of duet you put in it, you would not have a Stanch pain. But sometimes you Put thinge into your stomach through your mouth, 61 course, that the stom- ach. catmot handle. Or, it may be a combination of a number of things that cause• this unusual condition in your stomach. The stomach makes special effort to get rid of this tronb- leaome substance and generally suc- ceeds eventually, but 'while the eight is going tn, it palms or hurts you. Pain is the result of a disturbance of the nerves. It is just the opposite a gladness. ;We ,soinetimee are so glad we feel gerl alt over. Pain is. Juet the opposf e. You can prove that pain is not a real thing but only a, sensation. Perhaps you have had toothache. You go te the dentist and he kills the nerve or takes it out. After that you cannot haves the tooth- aelae in that tooth again, because there Is no nerve there to telegraph to the braia, even though the saline of. the hurt still exists. 'You cannot feenipain unless the brain knows about the in- jury.

What thia medieine hex done for others it will surely do for you, There is peril in beging a whale or a porpoise in the North Atlantic theee days.

Even had the cost of sup- plies and labor remained stationary, the substantial increase in the num- ber of patiente would algae account for the addition to the eltarity'a debt, which at the close flecal year was $109,000. This debt has become en embarrassing burdeet. Furtker increase meet titeattee irapairmeat of an enviable effieiency.

He made a series of interesting ex- periments with captive fish. He baited a hook, and two inehes above it faetened a tinY piece Of White paper. With this bait Ile tempted it %teeentiy captured fish. But this fish was wily, and for seven daps reftleed the bait, Then, the next day, when. the week-old memory of its eapture had aPparently vattished fiom ite mind, the fish bit awl was hooked. Oxner carefully ueliooked the catch and replaced it in the Water. Thate timee more the fish bit, with a day's ititerval between 041 bite. But after that it no longer touched the bait, for the meaning of the paper eignal had become known to it, On the twelfth day the piece of paper was removed (tom the book. and the fish straightway bit,the bait!
