year-old , Jimmie, laugliiiig a•b

"I sem my mother matte it," said
Mary, taking up one Corner of the
dainty mushn apron and looking
ae it easefully,
"The stuff it is made of grew os
tp. little tree that looks just like
our blush -rose tree," insisted Jim-
mie. ",Aunt Ethel has a book full
of pictures about it, Coale and
see!" and taking Mary by the band,
Jimmie trotted out to the piazza
where Aunt Ethel was sewing,
"Aunt Ethel, did the stuff say
apron is made of grow on a little
tree like a rose -bush I" asked Mary,
eagerly.
Aunt Ethel took bold of the mus-
lin apron, and then nodded smiling -

.. "Yes, y dear," she said,
"your apron is made of cotton and
cotton grows on a plant, It Athe fruit o£' a plant."
"Well, I didn't know cloth
grew!" said the little girl.
"I will tell you about it," •.said
Aunt Ethel, lifting Mary into her
lap. "Then' when you hear about
Cotton cloth and ootton thread you
will know just what it means."
"Does thread, grow, tool"
"See,". said Aunt Ethel, holding
up the apron,. "this cloth is made
of hundreds of fine threads. So you
see the thread is really made first."
"Tell her about the • cotton -
plant," said Jimmie. .
"Some day," went on Aunt -Ethel,
"you and Jimmie will go to South
Carolina; and instead of fields of
grass you will see fields of cotton.
If it be in July, all the cotton -
pleats will show a round fruit
about as big as a walnut. In Au-
gust, when this fruit has ripened,
It bursts open, and then out come
lovely white fluffs of lint. And this
white lint is ootton.
"It is all picked from the plant
and cleaned, and then the white
strands are spun into thread, and
then the thread is woven into cloth,
.and your mother buys the cloth and
nuts Mary out an apron and sews
et with fine cotton thi4ad, and
here it is."
"There!" said Jimmie. "I told
you that your apron grew upon a
little tree."
"Who -picks the cotton lint 7" ask-
ed Mary.
"Negro boys and girls," said
Aunt Ethel.
"I must go and tell my mother
about Cottee," said Mary, ,slipping
down from Aunt Ethel' a lap. "Per-
haps she will set out some cotton -
plants and we; can raise our own
cloth."
But Aunt Ethel shook her head.
"No," she said, "it has to be a
very warm climarte for cotton to
grow in, and a great deal of sun-
light. Your mother eannot raise
cotton here."
"Well," said Mary, thoughtfully,
"we can raise lovely roses. Mother
is at work now in the rose -garden,
and I am going to tell her about my
apron. Which do you think is best,
Aunt Ethel, roses or cotton I"
"What de you think7" asked
Aunt Ethel.
"Roses," :answered Mary.
"Cotton, of course," declared

Should parents be permitted to

dren 1 The question is raked by
the remark Mr. Troutbeck made at
an inquest on a child with the name
of "Sunny Jim." "Children," said
the coroner, "should be protected
against eiesaults of this kind."
Registrars of births, an official at
Somerset House, London, England,
pointed out, have power to refuse
the registration of oertliie names--
names
ames-names that suggest blasphemy, for
instance -but rarely do they refuse
names, even of the "freak" or-
der, which parents strongly desire.'
1f they died refuse such names, the
parents could still adopt them in
ordinary use.
"Parents do nob realize what a
handicap an extraordinary Chris-
tian uamo is to a child, especially
to a boy," said a London school-
master recently. "It is always a
handle for chaff, and the unfortu-
nate bearer of it is never allowed
any peace."
Children born into the. world in
times of national excitement often
roeoive a name suggesting the per.
tinier event or person that is up-
pe.rinost in the public mind. Thus
during the South Afl•ioan War

ata flritioel Time,
Few women reach the age of fifes
without enduring muoh suffering
and anxiety, Between the years
of forty -Ave and fifty health becomes
fickle,and acute weaknesses arise
with rheumatic attacks, pains in
the back and eiders, frequent bead -

The secret of good health be-

upon the blood supply, If it is
kept rich, red and pure, good health

pass this critical stage in safety.
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills kelp wo-
men of mature years as no other
medicine can, for they make the
rich, red blood that means good
health, and brings xelief from suf-
fering. Mrs, C. Donavon, New-
castle, N. B., says; '.!About two
years ago I was greatly run down
and very miserable. I did not
know what was wrong with me. I
was hardly able to drag myself
about, had severe headaches •and
no appetite. I felt so wretched that
I hardly oared whether -I lived or
not. I had •often read of what Dr.
Williams' Pink Pills had done for
others and I decided to try them
and I can now truthfully say I
found them all they are recommend-
ed to bo. Under their use my health
•gradually came back; I could eat
better, sleep better and felt strong-

was enjoying as good health as ever
I had done.',

DIETING ON DEADLY DRUG.
Arsenio Is Taken to Beautify the
Complexion.
Arsenie-eating is indulged in in
England to -day to a considerable
extent. There are dainty dames in
London mansions who swallow the
poison in profusion. So, too, do
the foreign -born East London arti-
ficial -flower makers; the object in
both cases being the same,namely,
the beautifying of the complexion.
Very minute quantities .of the
drug, taken daily for long periods,
give the skin a dazzling -purity and
delicacy of coloring obtainable in
no other way. Even a coarse,
blotchy face is transfigured and
beautified by it.
The girls and women in the fac-
tories—mostly aliens -are fully
aware of these facts, and not only
make use of the poison themselves
for that purpose, but smuggle it
outside, and give or sell it to their
friends and acquaintances.
Not long since a Polish Jewess
was prosecuted for this at a Lon-
don police -court, when ittranapired
that she had for years been a'vic-
tim to the arsenic habit, her aver-
age daily dose being half a grain.
Her system, the police surgeon ex-
plained, had undoubtedly . become
inured to the effects of the poison,
since such a quantity introduced
daily into the (system of an ens
immune person would very quickly
be followed by serious symptoms,
and probably death.
Opium, in the form of laudanum,
is largely used in the factory dis-
tricts of England and in certain
of the counties. Laudanum is a
poison, but it is also an ordinary
article of commerce, ,,,nd there' is,
therefore, nothing to prevent a
chemist from selling, any quantity
of it to any person giving anything
like a plausible explanation of the
purpose for which he 'requires it.
Somevictims of the habit will con-
snme as much as three ounces
daily; yet a single drachm has been
known to cause death.
Ether drinking is common among-
st the natives of Connemara, Ire-
land; who ono also in the habit of
dosing themselves with tartar
emetic, probably the most, loath-
some of all toxic drugs. This they
do under the impression that it is
a preventative of—soma say a euro
for- consumption.

One small fly, for example, causes

by piercing the young buds of the
chrysanthemum, and thus causing
the flowers to come deformed and

been known to bore into sixty
chrysanthemum buds in. a single
day, and thus cause the, florist a
loss of $25 to $30. By protecting
the bird nests and eggs the ravages
of insects would not indeed be stop-
ped, but they might be lessened
in snob a degree as would greatly
increase the income of the farmer
