ENGLISH BRIDE-ELECT'S WISH.
"No flowers" has long been a fa
miliar phrase In obituary announce
ments, and now "No presents, by re
quest," has made its appearance In
the newspaper column In which fash
ionable engagements are announced.
The first bride-elect publicly to
emancipate herself from the tyranni
cal yoke of the wedding presents is
IMlss Lilian Lutley, of Oldham Priory,
;Hants, who is to be married In the
iautumn to Mr. Harrington Morgan,
!Judge of the civil courts of Justice in
lhe Sudan. The engaged couple have
requested, through the presB, that no
presents be sent to them. Letters
expressive of good wishes, they add,
will be very acceptable.
"There are many service people
who have lived to wish from the bot
tom of their hearts that their friends
had abstained from burdening their
lives with well intentloned wedding
presents, and civil servants who go
abroad are. I should Imagine, In the
name position," said the wife of a
naval officer who is a member of a
well known ladles' service club.
"Presents In the form of checks
are, of course, acceptable, and Jewel
ry does not deteriorate with keeping,
but for a young couple to attempt to
carry to distant lands the heterogen
eous collection ot silver articles, silk
cushions, afternoon tea cloths and
glass and chlfia with which their
friends have endowed them hi to sad
dle themselves with a very expensive
and very useless appendage.
"I know of a woman who was mar
ried five years ago and the wedding
presents are still at the repository
where they were sent after the cere
mony," added this lady. London
Mail.
LONELINESS.
Loneliness, bigger than ever, set
tles down in the mother's heart; M
the daughter would master French,
o all-important, she muBt be with
native friends wherever she may find
them. As chaperon she lives an end
less routine of hurrying from one
fount of knowledge to another, or
listens at home to meaningless splut
terlngs, ot which she grasps only a
word here and there, so says William
Armstrong, in Success Magazine.
Presently there is a ruction. The
girl who will succeed Pattl has been
listened to by a great singer to whom
ihe had letters, and told that she is
pelng taught wrongly. To mother
and daughter this news comes as a
hock; In Paris, they had fancied, all
teachers must be supremely excellent.

things are kaleidoscopic; one Ringing
teacher follows another until six have
beeI tried and found wanting. Some.

self takes the Initiative.
The seventh singing teacher, who
should properly have been the first,
is finally consulted. She has trained
many singers recognized In America
as really great, Her voice is frankly
plain: "Your voice Is in such bad
condition from wrong teaching that
now I can do nothing for you. Stop
singing entirely for six months, then
come back, and I will tell you
whether It is ruined or not."
To her two listeners an abyss seems
opening at their feet. To economize,
they leave the pension where tbey
first took quarters, and rent furnished
rooms yet more modest; there they
set up housekeeping In a way that, at
home, would have been looked oa
as pitiable.

SUN DIAL MOTTOES.
Famous Examples Which Itare
From Grave to Gay.
Very curious Inscriptions appeffr
on many sun dials, such as the one
on Paper Buildings, In the Temple,
says the Gentlewoman, which bids
one abruptly "Begone about your
business;" and again in Pump Court
we are told that "shadows we are,
and like shadows depart."
Others on various sun dials are:
"The day will come," "Everywhere
the same," "Behold we fly," "I show
by the kindness and splendor of the
sun," "This is the day," "Learn to
value time," "I fly while you behold
me," "Enjoy the present hour," "The
Bh ailow moves though I am at rest,"
"I set to rise," "Days make years,"
"I stay for no man," "The day flies,"
"Such is life," "Man Is but a sha
dow," "Redeem the time," "Lying
does not belong to me," "The bright
est day has its shades," "You pursue
a shadow," "The sun causes the sha
dow," "You may waste, but cannot
stop me," "Life is fleeting as the
shadow," "Let not the sun go down
on thy wrath."
Vertical sun dials could be placed
on a south wnll with but little trouble
and less material, for It only required
a dial to cast a shadow on radiating
incised lines marked on the wall,
These oten appeared on churches and
were generally near the southwestern
angle.
Sometimes sun dials even ap
peared In stained glass windows
These are still to be seen in Lambeth
Palace, and at one time there was
another In the Church of All Hal
lows Staining, Mark lane.
Another kind of dial was of a port
able description known as the "ring"
type, to be worn on the finger, the
light finding its way through a tiny
hole. Of these the rarest sort known
was furnished with a combination ot
projections for throwing the shadow
of the sun. Cardinal Wolsey had one
made In brass gilt on which were en
graved his arms. Other portable ones
were a sort of combination of dial
and compass and folded up.
Then there was the pillar sun dial,
with which we are familiar. Of this
kind the baluster shaped pillar is
most frequently seen, though ot
course there are many variations,
some taking the form of columns
more or less carved and decorated.
In more recent years sun dials of
growing shrubs have been made as
ornaments to lawns, such as the one
at Broughton Castle, near Banbury.
The hours are made of growing box
or yew embedded In minute frag
ments of smashed marble; the ur
right dial, also growing, Is of yew
and Is cut and trimmed Into shape.
Around the whole Is written in let
ters of yew "Memory lives, but the
hour flies."
Queer English Villages.
The English village Is very dear to
the hearts of poets and painters, and
.thousands of them are certainly
charming. A few, however, are more
amusing than anything else, as, for
instance, one which consists entirely
of old railway carriages, even tne
chapel being composed of four-horse
trucks. Another village, with a pop
ulation ot 1100, and taxed at the val
uation ot J80OO, has neither school,
church nor other public building, the
only thing ot the sort being a letter
box on a pillar.
. Villages with but a single Inhab
itant are not unknown, one of them
belne Sktddaw. In Cumberland. The
single villager complains bitterly be
cause he cannot vote there Being no
overseer to preparo a voters' list, and
no church or other public building on
which to publish one, as the law re
quires. The lonely ratepayer In a
Northumberland village has declined
to contribute money to maintain the
roads, remarking that the one he lias
is quite good enough for Its use. In
the Isle of Ely Is a little parish with
about a dozen inhabitants thnt has
no rates, as there are no roads or
public Institutions of any kind, and
consequently no expenses.
Kempton, near Bradford, can prob
ably lay successful claim to the dis
tinction of being the longest village
In the world, as It straggles along the
road for a distance of seven miles.
Sometimes a village will entirely
disappear, having been built either on
the edge of the crumbling cliffs that
make part of the coast line, or over
an ancient mine. One ot the hitter
class is in Shropshire, and each year
one or more of the cottages tumbles
as the earth sinks beneath It. Har

MX HINTS'
AGAINST RABBITS.
A lime wash which has been found
a good protection lor trees against
rabbits is simply to wet enough un
packed lime to the point of consist
ency, add a little carbolic acid to the
substance and paint the trunks of the
orchard trees. Farmers Home Jour

SOIL FOR APPLES.
Aprles do not grow without some
thing to grow from. They need mors
In the way of fertility than they can
draw from the sky or from the tired

supplied, the trees resent It by with

Farmers' Home Journal.
LATE BEARING APPLES.
Complaint is sometimes heard that
apple orchards eight or ten years old
do not bear any fruit, The fact of
the matter Is, the trees are not old
enough. Trees can bo stunted and
dwarfed Into bearing crops before this
age, but trees ten years old, If well
cultivated and fed, should be busy
making heavy wood growth, and
much wood growth and fruiting do
not go together. Many varieties "o
not begin to bear much until twelve
years old. Such trePB can bo forced
Into earlier bearing by stopping cul
tivation and seeding down to grass,
but It Is usually considered better to
keep cultivating and feeding until the
tree naturally gets ready to bear,
when It will be bo much larger and
Its capacity bo much greater that tho
size ot the crops will more than com
pensate for the wait. Such trees, too,
will be longer lived than trees which
have been stunted and forced Into
early bearing. Orchards should be
shallow cultivated up to the middle
ot summer each year, and by the time
they are twelve years old the trees
will want all the ground. Indiana

MOCK ORANGE.
The "mock orange" or Pblladel
phus is popularly known as "syrln
ga," and the latter is the botanical
name for lilac. The mock orange
family comprises about thirty species
of hardy, ornamental shrubs, vary
ing in height from five to twenty feet.
many of them admirably adapted for
the decoration of home grounds.
Perhaps the most widely grown va
riety of those known to the old-time
gardener as "syringas" is Phlladel
phuB grandlflorus, which grows about
six feet high and has large, white,
sweet-scented flowers which appear
in June. Common mock orange (P
coronarlus) reaches about ten feet in
height and blooms in May or June
and is very fragrant. The flowers
are pure whits and are borne In dense
clusters, often so numerous as to bend
the branches down to the ground.
Gordon's mock orange (P. gordon-
lanus) is a native of the United States
and in good ground often reaches ten
or twelve feet In height. It has
pleasing green foliage with grayish
hrown branches. The flowers are
white and produced In great abund
ance. They bloom lu June or July in
central latitudes.
This plant thrives in almost any
well drained soil and often doeB well
in the shade of trees and buildings.

PEAR TREE PSYLLA.
Tho Pear Tree Psylla is the con
n.onest and most destructive flea
louse In the country. Lucky for the
orchard that the Golden-eyed Lace
wing Flies prey upon tho Psj'lla and
keen him somewhat in check. Let us
follow out the destructive course of
the Psylla to vegetation and then
view with complacency his tragic end.
The Psylla egg is a minute orange
oval. Hatched into a larva It is still
yellow with red eyes. This is Its dan
ger stage should a wandering Gloden
eye discover It. After several molts
It emerges a perfect fly resembling a
minute cicada, and hibernates through
the winter. With the first warm
spring days It commences egg laying
on the twigs. The larvae hatch In
ten to seventeen days and station
themselves on the leaves. Now Is the
time for the feast of the Golden-eye.
He, too, is in the larval stage. Just
having emerged from an egg. He it
searching for a breakfast and right
In his way he sees a Juicy Fsylla.
Closing In on the unfortunate louse
he grasps it between his long curved
mandibles and rapidly squeezes out
the Juice. Or should he encounter
the egg of the Psylla his action will
be the same biting Into it and ex
tracting the soft contents. This It
done with great celerity, and the dry
shell cast aside, the whole operation
taking less than a minute. Then the
Golden-eye begins a search for an
other PBylla, or In fact anything in
the form ot a living Insect which
crosses Its pathway. He is totally
fearless and attacks with eagernesi
Insects much larger than himself.

RESERVE HORSES FOR WAR. '
Switzerland's Method of Preparing
for Rapid Mobilization.
In Switzerland the State Is part
owner of horses used by reserves. It
purchases a remount at 3 '4 year,
old, and the soldier pays halt the
cost of the horBe to the Government,
together with the difference between
Its cost and the price that the horse
fetches at auction for all horses are
sold by auction to the men.
After every year of trading th.
Government refunds one-tenth of the
original halt cost to the men, and
at the end of ten years the horse
becomes the absolute property of the
soldier, la this manner the soldier is
not only always well mounted but a
he keeps his horse with him at hl
home his mobilization problem Is ot
the simplest nature.
The average price ot these Swiss
troop horses is about 45 sterling,
says Bally's Magazine, and as most
ot these horses are Imported front
Ireland and north Germany their
price Is considerably higher than it!
would be In this country. Thus the)
State secures the services of a hone
for an annual outlay ot about 4
10..; but there are certain other ex
penses which must be Inoluded in
this estimate, such as the cost of
the establishment for remount de
pots, etc., which raises the total coat
of horses for the Swiss Government
to about 8 12s. a year.

nervous prostration for four years, j
"I was scarcely able to be around,
had no energy and did not care for
anything. Was emaciated and had a
constant pain around my heart until
I thought I could not endure It. For)
months I never went to bed expecting

though I wad liable to die any time.
"Frequently I had nervous chlllfl
and the least excitement would drive)
sleep away, and any little noise would
upset mo terribly. I was gradually
getting worse until finally one time ltj

what's tho use of being sick all th

could Indulge myself in coffee: !
"So I thought I would see If I could,

greatest step in my life. It was easy
to quit coffee because I had the Pos
