Lanterns Extensively Used In China. The ordinary lanterns carried in funoral or wedding processions iu China have a split bamboo fr$me, covered with paper or gauze, and measure from two \ to three feet in diameter. On the surface lis painted the surname and titles of the family. If a wedding procession, the decorations and letters should be red and black, with as much red and as little black as possible. If a funeral, the coloring should be blue, no other tint being permissible except in the case of a Yery high mandarin. Here yellow, the ? sacred or imperial color, may be employed, or yellow and black. The common herd is not permitted to carry the mandarin lanterns; at leAst such is the law. When, however, the celebrants are filling to salve the officials palms, the law becomes a dead letter. For the i>oor. who can 8 Dare a little money, are globes and egg shaped lanterns, made of c split bamboo, rattan or wire, and glazed paper or oiled cloth. They range from six inches in diameter to three and even four feet. The ground of the exterior is either white or the natural color of ( the covering. Upon it is painted, in J red or blue, great characters, which * either indicate tbe name of the owner or 1 else express some favorite maxim or 1 quotation from the poets. .The idea of B carrying a lantern at night, on which is I written the name of the owner and his * rank and titles or his business house's * name, is to show the public that he is a c citizen, and not a highwaymen. If he 8 has any title or rank he is admitted to places of entertainment without trouble, the Chinese people paying more regard to titles and lanterns than to the person himself.?New York News. ? ???????????n Mr. Simeon Staples i Four Physicians Failed 5 v A Running Sore Five Years Hood's Sarsapu villa Perfectly Cured " Taunton.

Annual weec :omplete their existence in a single yea: Jence when annuals are prevented froj ipening their seed9 upon any farm froi rear to year the time must come whe bat class of weeds will be complete] lestrojed. Persistent warfare againi hem for a single season would eradical hem entirely were -it not for the fa< hat many seeds, from the nature of tt loating which contains the germinate jrinciplc, have the power to resist deep o such an extent that they may remai n the soil and retain their vitality f( leveral years. Annuals should, therefor lot only as far as possible be prevente rom maturing their seeds, but tho: vbich have been overlooked and do mt ure should by autumn cultivation t nduced to germinate that they be ti ooner destroyed. Biennials complete the round of the; sxistuncc in two years and any metho hat will prevent them from maturin ind reproducing seeds will in time d< itroy them. Along roadsides and i places seldom cultivated, cutting thei >ff frequently at the surface of tt jround will be the most effective rnethot There are two ciasses of perennials;hose reproduced from seeds only an ;hose also reproduced from root stalki rhe most effective method of destroyin :hese pcst3 is to smother them, by con pletcly coveriug them with soil in tb period of their most active growth, < in digging them up root and branch as eaving them to <?ry and be burned. In the Canadian provinces, weeds ai thought to be on the increase, and pr< rail to such au extent that a lengthj bu ietin of the Ontario Experiment Statio is wholly devoted to a description < some of their most troublesome weedi together with successful methods, som of which are nere noiea, eupiu^cu m ie destroying them.?New York World. n y GREEN PEAS FOB THE GARDEN. f. To be grown to perfection, green peas i- require a lively loam, rich enough only it to produce good, strong vines; too rich n a soil makes too much vine, with a tenis dency to mildew. Thi3 sowing of peas n should be the first day's work in the y garden, and only sufficient for a few s- meals at one time should be sown, as the x> crop is a short one. Generally, two e pickings is all the market-gardener exie pects to harvest, but in the family garden >n they can be picked for several days from most of the popular sorts. Therefore, for a succession, sowings at aa interval of a week are necessary. Q The earliest peas are the small, hard ^ sorts, known as First and Best, or Best re of All. Many changes are being rang [3 on the name of this pea, that had its d parent in the Improved Daniel 0 'Rourke. Ie There is but little difference in these, [a either is early and productive. The it Alaska, I think, is an improvement in n quality, ani is very early. For a seoond j. early, or for a general crop, Mci?ean's n Little Qern has much to commend it; it ie is a good cropper, of dwarf habit, reft quiring no brush, and in quality it ia }r delicious. For a late pea the ChamB. pion of England, is still the champion. a It requires brush, but it pays to use it, both for ease in picking the crop, and for the great ,e increase in productiveness. Pea vines, Ie properly trained up, produce a much I. heavier crop than if they are allowed to trail upon the ground. A certain variety will not give the 6ame results in different localities. With me, the American Wonder is a very good pea, in some I seasons perfectly satisfactory, while in others it will not return the seed sown. ^ The same is true with other varieties, as ^ with all other vegetable forms. I should , urge most earnestly the trial ot the new ' sorts put out by responsible seedsmen, ^ as the best is none too good, and when a k sort is found of superior merit, and adapted to individual wants, it should be retained. .* In our climate a good crop of peas in ^ mid-summer is aimcuu iu uuunu, as l3 plants will not adapt themselves to our n excessively hot weather. But a good crop can frequeatly be obtained in au. tumn, by sowing in August, and if a |e vacant piece of ground is at hand it is ^ well worth while to make a trial. , In the average garden > about ten times ^ too much seed is used, which is, in a great measure, the cause of failure to ^ secure a good yield. The vines should be le at least two inches apart, three would be I < better, they would then grow strong and ^ branching, bearing fully developed pods I at every joint. Planted in this way the yield will be double of that where the plants are too crowded, and the pods will be much loncer and better filled. For the private garden, peas should be >r planted in single rows, bo that Ihey can a be worked, and the crop picked from ie both sides.?American Agriculturist, >. h farm AND GARDEN notes. l* A pumas soil is very generally pre,e ferred for oniona. !

As respects modern locks this country bears ofi the palm, -whether as regards security, convenience, facility of manipulation or workmanship. Like other articles for common use confined within the domain of ordinary mechanics, our locks arc the beat in the world. The lock of the present day in European countries is a clumsy piece of mechanism, and the key a cumberome piece of iron that is inconvenient to carry in the pocket and dangerous to the clothing. The task of 'the Europe burglar is easy, a twisted piece of ironbeingan "open-sesame" for all the rooms of a private dwelling or hotel. On the continent it is even more essential than with us that the locksmith should be a man of greater probity than the workmen of other trades. Fortu r.tely, in France the honesty of the craft become a tradition. Comparatively * V. a + r\f l..PW U1 IUC uui^iauco Miat ai^ v/* riccurrcnce in and and about Paris are committed by locksmiths. From time immemorial the French locksmiths have taken the dog as an emblem of the fidelity to its interests that the public expects of them. It habitually appeared upon their signs, which were varied sometimes by the tigurc of a lion guarding a safe, the key of which was held by a hare. Of the relative honesty of locksmiths in other countries where the lock has been less a specialty of manufactures as an adjunct of art we know little on account of the lack of statistics, but we may say in a general way of tnis "country that it would be very unfortunate for society if our locksmiths should take as kindly to burglary as some of .. our engravers have to counterfeiting.?
