;i;. OPERATION AVOIDED! 1 Severe Case of Kidney Disease I Completely and Permanently Cured by I Warner's 'Safe' Core f BOA CORPORATION ROAD* G CARLISLE, EG June 24th, IQOI. IS I beg to bear testimony to the efficacy of || using Warner's Safe' Cure. I suffered for | thirty-four weeks from haemorrhage of the 1 kidneys, and was laid up at my own home for | a period of two months, being attended by my | own doctor and taking his medicines. No 8 improvement was effected. I was then re- | moved to the Infirmary, where I remained for | seven weeks. My case being obscure it was S decided to perform an operation. I objected, j| and left the Infirmary in the same condition | as when I entered it. Coming home I com- 1 menced immediately to use your Cure, the 1 result being that to-day I am perfectly cured 1 and enjoying the best of health. You are at jjf liberty to use this, though it is only a poor j& tribute to the qualities of Warner's Safe' m Cure. §8 (Sig,ned) "NORMAN LAWSON." |j TWO YEARS AFTER.

I Saving Cineraria Seed. I

I Saving Cineraria Seed. I The bdst time to save Cineraria seed is, of coarse, when the plants are in flower. The plants selected should stood in a. light, airy, i sunny stroctnre, and not overcrowded in any j j way. The most important item is to maintain J j as dry an atmosobere as possible, hence damping J down should at that time besaspended. Artificial s fertilisation is not necessary for the production j of seed. Some people imagine that catting back j and growing on old plants is desirable but in- » deed, they are not worth the trouble. for yonns aaedliug plants give much the best restilta. The same applies to most of the stellata section, but j some of the newer hybrid forms do not produce fertile seed; hance it is absolutely necessary to propagate them by cattinga of the .yonng shoots pashed up at the base of the plants that have done flowering. The do able-flowered varieties which do not seed are also increased in the same way. Potting Liliums. Pot the bulbs as soon as posaibJe. Drain the pots well, and about three parts fill them with a mixture of light nbroua loam, peat, well-rotted manure, leaf mould, and some coarse sand. Cover the baibs with 3m. of soil, which should be fairir moist, as no water maat be given after potting. Place the pots on a bard aeh bottom. *and cover with a good thickness of leaf mould or Cocoanut fibre. When the plants have made about an inch of growth remove them to a sunny greenhouse, and water sparingly for a time. A Garden Pest. Clearing a, garden of sluga when they have been long left to breed is a difficult matter, more especially where the garden is surrounded by bedtres. Dressings of lime and soot are very efficacious in killing the pests if applied at the right time, that is in the evening when the dew is falling and the slugs come oat to feed. The best plan is to dust soot and lime freely about where they are. If the slugs harbour at the foot ot walls or fences, strew salt freely there. Gas- lime used in the same way as tbe salt is also very efficacious. Window Gardening. Among flowednplants in rooms DOW are bulbs of various kinds, Cinerarias and Primulas. Very light and elegant is Primula stellata. Cineraria stelJata also does wen in 5in. or 6in. pots, but the plants run up taller than the ordinary kind, which, to some, may be an objection. Leggy plants of all kinds in the spaie room may be cut back and the cuttings inserted in pots ol sandy soil and not overwatered. Propagating the Mistletoe. There is no difficulty in increaping the Mistle- toe; a little care, a little patience, and some ripe berries in April or May are essential. If the I seeds Me placed on some smooth bark on the underside of the branch in April or May and covered with a thickness of black muslin or auze to keep birds away there is no trouble. Never cut slits in the bark, into which tc insert the seeds, simply apply them to clean bark. Raising the Mistletoe from seed is a slow process, as no oxternal signs of growth are visible until a year ttfterthe dry seed has fallen away. If the place is then examined it will thee be foand that the bark is swelling just beneath the-apot whereon the seed was placed, and in the second year the youtJg shoota and leaves appear. The treea will certainly suffer from the Mistletoe growing on them. Dahlias from Seed. Sow Dahlias seed early in March. Prepare some shallow paus, putting some crocks in the bottom and some lough material over these, then fill ap with Bifted soil, consisting of loaml leaf ■ soil, and silver sand. Level tbe soil, give a good watering, then sow the seed thinly, covering over with some of the same compost. Put a square of glaas over the pan, and place in a greenhouse. If a little bottom-heat can be given all the better. When the seedling* are latge noub they sbonld èe potted off into small pots, and, if need be, moved on into 48-sized pots, planting out at the end of May or early in Jane. Some of the eeel. lings will flower, but not all.* Of course, they are not so good as those from tubers for this reason, 'that they will possibly be a mixed lot of all colours, and not a good variety among them. One may raise thousands of seedlings, and none be worth keeping. The case is quite different with named varieties, which can be had cheaply in .May. Hard-Wooded Ptants Indoors. To Azaleas, Heaths, Epacrises, Camellias, Boronias, and not a few other hard-wooded plants we owe much, when it is considered what a dis- play of bloom they give from now until April. The/e are, however, some to whom the growing of the subjects mentioned is always attended with difficulty and frequent disappointment. In tbe majority of instances this is largely due to neglect months previously. It is a mistaken idea to think that one may put hard-wooded plants out of doora during the summer without attending to their wants, but in many caaes neglect to water, etc., spells rnin to the plants so far as flowering tfor another season is concerned. Then, again the method often adopted of putting plants into cold frames after flowering is not to be com- mended, aa it is just then when the hard-wooded -StIblects should be encouraged in every possible way to make new growth, and not until euch growth has well advanced should any changa in 081lon be made. In regard to watering, too Cthe fact that peat largely enters into the compost and it being retentive, should not be forgotten, and therefore surface waterings are harmful. When needed moisturs should bo supplied liber- Ally, and the-nae of the springe ooght to be borne in mind. Mign9nette in Pots; In growing Mignooette in pots it is essential that the pots suouid be filled firmly with a goo:l loamy compost, with which may be mixed a good ;proportion of well-rotted manure. Soot should be mixed with the manure before adding it to the I other compost; this will kill any worms or other insects. Old lime rubbish is also a valuable I addition, especially for the early sowings, as it helps to keep the soil sweet. The Med nhould be 110wn fairly thick, and as soon as the plants are large enough they may be thinned out, but not too much at first. From six to nine plants in a '6in. pot will be sufficient after the final thin- ning. Plenty of light and air is essential, but cold east winds are very damaging, and it will be better not to give air than to expose the plants to a direct east wind. As soon as the plants are large enough to require it they should have more room, and when they are lin. or from that to 2iu. high liquid manure may be used, com- mencin with It well diluted and gradually in- I creasing the strength. Great care should be ¡ taken that it is not used in a clear Btate, as thick, muddy manure not only stains the foliage, but forma a coating over tbe surface of the soil and effectually prevents evaporation and absorption.

HNTS TO AMATEURS. Antirrhinums make splendid masses, and may be had in separate colours which come true from seeds. If the seeds are SOWD now m boxes under glass, and the seedlings pricked off when large enough, hardened off, fQd planted out early in May or earlier if the plants are ready, they will flower early and continuously till the autumn. Begonias, both the fibrous and tuberous-rooted sections, are much used now for the flower gar- den, and last season being damp the Begonias eclipsed the other bedding plants, especially the Pelargoniums, Tubers may be started in boxes now, and may be potted off separately when the growth haa made some progress. Breda also of both fibrous and tuberous kinds may be sown in heat, and if grown on in heat illl May and then hardened off all will flower during- summer. Cannas may now be started j*nd grown<*>n in heat, so as to have strong plants to put oat early In June. The position for these and other tine. leaved plants should be made rich, and shonld be in sheltered spots. Ihe seeds of sub-tropicaiR should be sown now in heat, the plants helped with heat till May, and then hardened off. There ia-nothing gained by sowing seeds when the land is so wet and cold as it is at present. As soon as the ground is drier and warmer a few Heeds-of earlyrcropa may be sown on tbe warm border. ) Everybody shonld have a warm border for sow. I ing early things. It can easily be created, as for first sowings it need not be large, shonld be backed np by a wall, if possible, wjth-a full Houthern exposure, and the soil should be from 2ft. to SftTdeep, and made rich. I. In some gardens there are borders in front of forcing-houses. These are splendid for early Potatoes, Carrots, liettaces, Cauliflowers, and a few rows of dwarf early Peas. Depth of aoilia very important. I Gardeners know how well Lettuces and dwarf Beans do on the ridges between the rows of Celery, entirely doe to the extra depth of soil.

Mr3 Clrappsl, Park Cottage, Rhiwderyn, said on Sunday morning defendant called at her door and asked for food, and said he would work for it. She tcld bim she had nothing for him to do. She. did not give him anything, and be then threa- tened her with a. knife, which he held in his hand. Defendant I only asked for work. Mrs Mercy fugh, Macbn, told a somewhat similar tale, and added that defendant was grinding bis teeth and rolling his eyes bacause she refused him food. He also said there would be bloodshed if he did not have food. Defendant had a, knife in his hand.. Her hus- band was lying on the sofa, and wbeDhe moved defendant went away. Inspector Lewis said that defendant had given them a good deal of trouble, and the people in the districts mentioned ware up in arms and afraid to go to bed. (To defendant: Where do you come from ?

FRAUDS ON THE UNEMPLOYED. EXPOSED AND PUNTSHED AT BRISTOL Notepaper with a Cardiff Address. Instances of a fraud of an ingenious and heartless natore were exnosed at Bristol Police Conrt on Tuesday, with tbe result that, Hugh Cooper (31). styling himself an accountant and debt collector, was sent to prison for three months with hard labour. The prisoner was stated to have formerly earned on business at St. Mary-street, Cardiff, and also at Newport, Mon. It appeared from the evidence that a young1 man named Hussey, who was oat of work, adver- tised in one of the Bristol papers for a situation, and, in reply, received a letter from prisoner, who was in lodgings at Bristol, offering him a berth M debt collector at a salary of about 25s per week. As a condition, however Hussey was either to deposit £LO or to insure himself in a Guarantee Society," naying a premium of 30s through the defendant. Negotiations followed Cooper representing himself as an accountant* about toopen business in Bristol, with offices either in Small-street or Redcliff-street, and Hussey, believing the offer was genuine, paid him 30s premium. Subsequently be received a letter from prisoner saying that his expected capital had not come to hand, and that he had arranged for the return of the money." No money, however, was forthcoming. Cooper seemed to bave acted in almost exactly the same manner with regard to his deal- ings with a man named Bowers, obtaining 30 r.rombim and arranging for its return-" In another case a young man named Merrett, who could not afford to pay 30s down, paid half' of that sum, the prisoner enerousJyoffering tc- pay the other half. Merrett's suspicions were aroused by not finding an office bearing Cooper's name in Small-street, and he demanded his money back, eventually obtaining the re- turn of 8s. The accused was farther shown to have answered the advertise- ment of an unemploved Reservist named Pearce and to have made" him the same offer on the same conditions. In this inatance he wrote on notepaper bearing a debt-collectiDgannounce- ment with the address of 97, St Mary-street, Cardiff, which had been erased and an address in Newport substituted. Pearce accepted the offer by wire, aid the prisoner called on him and obtained the usuaJ 30s, which he never returned when the capital did not come to band. In his defence the prisoner contended that there was no falae pretence, which was tbe qharge against bim. He bad offered to refund the money and to compensate the prosecutors for the time they had lost, lie was still willing to do iso, swould have done so if he had not been arrested before he bad the chance.
