Moore of Toronto, on Shrubbery
Planting is a Hone and 'roWn Beau-
tification was much enjoyed by the
delegates, Qui Society therefore
'Wishes to pass en to our members a
few of these remarks which We laoPe.
tfll ,benefit those interested in shrubs.
through the planting of hardy
shrubs, hoines and towns throughont
Canada are each year becoming Mare
permanently beautiful, Shrubs are
considered More enduring than most
perennials, are useful as borders or
massing together to bide unsightly
backgrounds or fences, They are al-
so mare effective. when planted in
pimps, than in straight • line's.
Hardiness of shrubs, when. planting
Should be considered.. Our climate
has severe winters; and there are
malty shrubs jhst: as beautiful as the
00-lettt:at will stand the Cold better:
than some: we • happen to choose.
Tall shrubs should be placed five
feet apart and medium or dwarf kinds
ite three .and a half 'feet,. • Real hardy
shrubs can be 'planted as successfully,
during Autumn as in Spring although
Spring Planting is usually- More fav-
oured. At the time of planting,
shrubs should be pruned to counter-
balance the 1.c.4 of roots or (lister -
bailee of'sarne. The ground should
be prepared in advance,„well watered,
well rotted manure dug in, but not
used to excess. Water newly planted
shrubs frequently daring dry Weather.
Some tall shrubsuggested are-
I)eutzia (snow flower, Pride of Ro-
chester, white); Forsythia (.golden
Yellow bells, flowers very early in
spring); Spiraea Van Heuttei (white
bridal wreath); also Syringa, Persian
Medium Shrubs: -Hydrangea Pani-

cus (Rose of Sharon) rose, mauve,

ShrubsDl:-japanese Barberry.
(coloured stems, with red berries in
fall); Anthony -Waterer Spirae (cer-
ise, pink).
The planting of bulbs for decora-
tive purposes, by E. F. Collins, Tor-
onto, was also quite interesting. He
urged that all flower lovers would
plant more bulbs so as to make On-
tario's Spring Bloom cause as much
comnient as blossom week does each
year. It was also sti•essed • not to
confine the planting of bulbs only as
a decoration for our homes but to
beautify our towns and highways with
Spring bulbs,
Bulbs for Spring bloom suggested
were: -Crocus, (all colors) planted
on lawns or at the base of shrubs,
are very effective; Chimps of mixed
Darwin, Tulips, early single Tulips,
Narcissus and Daffodils. These plan-
ted between shrubs or arbund same
are . -lovely, and a/so when large beds
of each kind are arranged when in
bloom, are a vision of .beauty.,
Lilies are beautiful , and in • blown
in early summer, but to in-
sure success should be planted in. ear-
ly Autumn. A few beautiful hardy
varieti'es suggested are:-Litium Bat-
emannii (Reddish Brown) blooths in
July or August; Regale, a new var-
iety from Western 'China (large ivory
white) sweet scented, and hardy if'
Planted • in a . faverable location;
Auras= and Canadeuse, two- beauti-
ful varieties.
Lilies shOuld be planted 8 inches
deep and resting on sharp sandy
ground, the ground abbve shoidd be
well cultivated. ,
,Now another word regardieg. bulbs;
sprinkle bone -meal freely on' top of
ground after planting in the Fall, al-
so do not break away foliage after
flowering until it• iS quite dry an'd
brown. When cutting leave as little
stem as possible on flower. This
prolongs the life of the bulbs and :you
will enjoy hetter blooms the' follow-
ing year. '

CATCHING LIVE OHIMJETEP,
Natives Have Many clever Methods
of Soaring Wild Antmals,
The Sawaras or native iliunters of
Andia have many clever methods of
snaring wild animals,
• One remarkable method, wrLes H.
Oswald Pereira in the Times of In-
dia, is that of trapanning and takint4
'the eheetah alive which, unlike Ste
other cousins, can. be tamed oven
though it has atained Ina tire yoars
This animal, when. it comes across e
bed of leaves, -no matter whe'ther it
be dry or green -is seized With an
irresistible inclination to jump into
its midst and scatter the leaves about
With its hind legs, in the manner of
a fowl when scratching. •
The Sawaras are aware of thie
singular habit. Tbey accordingly
gather a number of leaves of the teal;
tree, on the surface of which they he.
smear it thick semi -Opaque, gummy
substance known to them as "jinta."
But before this they .aseertain the
haunts of the animal, and strc•w tin
leaves in it opot where'they think, the
animal is likely to pass, taking care
to so lay the leaves that the prepared '
sides are uppermost.
When "Mr. Spots" comes along, he
says to himself: "Here,is a fine leafy
bed in which to disport rifStself." So
thinking, he steps on it when his fate
is settled. He feels a leaf sficic on
to his paw and shakes it in order le
be rid of the nuisance; then finding
the plan, unsuccessful, he endeavors
to gain his object by rubbing, it
against his face, thereby dabbing ,he
gummy substance on his nose and
eyes, and gluing the eyelids together.
'By this time he has,probably trod-
den upon some more of the treaeh-
erous leaves. Bewildered and irritat-
ed he rolls himself upon the ground
aud rubs his face on the earth in
his efforts to .get free. By so doing,
Ise only adds more leaves to his 'head,
body and 'limbs, agglutnates his
sieek and shiny fur 113unsiglitly 'Writ
of green, and finishes by hood -wink-
ing himself so thoroughly with thd
leaves that he lies fiounderieg on the
ground, tearing up the earth with his
claws, uttering howls of dismay and
exhausted by the impotent struggles
in whieh he is so long engaged.
These cries are a signal to the
authors of his misery, who run up
to the spot arraed with sticks to one
end of which are tied ropes in the
form of a loop.
The cheetah being unable to see,
allows them to 2cpproach nealtehim.
They immediately slip the loos On
to his neck and twist them tighlt• His
struggles are to no purpose. They,
lead him away and impound him in
a hut.
And, there he will have to remain
abiding starvation and the stick, un-
til such time as he regards his cap-
tors,in the light of masters.
REMOVED THE CAUSE.
How Wilson MacDonald Stopped the
Lady Cackling.
To the poetic gifts which in recent
years have won him such widespread
recognition, Wilson MacDonald, auth-
or of "Out of the Wilderned's," adds
something unusual and rather un-
expected in any.peet-a rare raastery
of sleight of hand. Not merely is he
familiar with the old-time magician's
bag of trieks,, but he has invented
new stunts, priinarily to amuse chil-
dren, of whom he is very' fond. t
In recent years Mr. MacDonald has
visited almost every important com-
munity in Canada giving recitals and
addresses, in addition to his earlier
explorations in those vast Canadian
hinterlands where audiences are con-
spicuous 'by their absence. In the
Canadian west .he has always met
with exeeptional favor'. • '
• 'At one of his early reeleals in Cal-
gary, however, a wendeefully recep-
tive audience ineluded one woman
who, it speedily became evident, had
WM-a to scoff. She (=pied a front
seat, and so long as he was reciting
his humerous poetry, Mr. MacDon-
ald could still regard her as apprecia-
tive, though somewhat too raucously
so. But when he turned to pathos
the 'Was in the front seat not merely
went on, laugning, but laughed more
Loudly than ever.
A poem that brought tears to all
°thee eyes, merely rendered the, wei-
man yet More htlaricius.
Mr. MacDonald excused himself to
the audience, . descended from the
platform, and stood in trent of the
Interrupted. Swiftly, deftly, be pass-
ed his hand over her hair several

And, then he produced -an egg.
"Now that the cause of the cack-
ling has 'been removed," he said, "we
