For one bulb a 3 1-2 or 4-inch pot Is large enough. A 5-inch bulb pan will do for three Roman Hyacinths, or two Narcissus. Any good free soil; will do; fill pot so that when bulb is set the top will Just show the surface of the soil and be sure not to fill the pot too full.

Pack soil well around bulb. Water thoroughly and place in cool dark place for the roots to start; cover with some soil and straw-like litter if out of doors; if in dark cellar, a piece of burlap or matting will do. Leave them for 5 or 6 weeks for a thorough root growth before bringing to the light, for upon a good root foundation rests the success of your crop of flowers. Examine occasionally to tee if the whole heated. The gray deposit disappears, and the arsenic is found clinging in crystals to the glass.

"When there is doubt about any one's death the post-mortem examination is the first step in solving the problem.

The body is thoroughly searched for any external signs, as scratches, bruises and cuts, that would be likely to cause, death. If this inspection fails, and the body i3 otherwise healthy, poison is naturally suspected.

Preservation of Cat Flower.

By this term we mean the keeping of them fresh and attractive. Of course a cool, dark place with fresh air, but not too drying, will keep the most of them best. But In that case you are rarely getting the benefit of their beauty. So we only consider that as a good condition for their storage when not needed for Immediate show. In case it is desired to keep the cut flowers some little time before using they will do best set deep in clean fresh water and placed In a cool cellar, avoiding draughts which would dry or wilt the flowers; covering the tops with some tissue paper helps some times.

Oil of vitrol, for instance, burns the mouth and throat, leaving black stains. nt tha offpots of noisons are often The Original Remedy i 1 I Vvery like those of disease, and a most ft refill examination has to be made. task Is not an easy one.

Not only must he-try and find the actual poison, but often It Is necessary to discover the actual quantity used. An instance of thi3 may be recalled. The wife of a surgeon died from corrosive sublimate poisoning. The surgeon administered the suspected draught, and he asserted that he mistook the bottle of mixture prepared for a sailor for the water bottle. The sailor's mixture was analyzed and found to contain corrosive sublimate.

The analyst measured the quantities present, and discovered that the mixture contained only 10 grains to an ounce of liquid, while the draught contained 15 grains of poison to the same quality, showing that the surgeon had lied! A suit of dirty clothes, with a few small, rusty-looking spots. Are they blood? The piece of cloth Is cut out and put in a small quantity of distilled water. With the aid of the spectroscope the expert ascertains that It Is blood and not paint -or iron-mold. The spectroscope merely tells him that it is blood, but not the kind. Here the microscope comes in and leads the investigator a step further.

It is, however, never safe to say whether the blood is human or not; all that can be said with certainty Is that It is the blood of a mammal. 9 iivmi r- rr I xrr irpad they need water 'as a moist, not wet condition Is desirable. About 4 or five weeks will be required to get them into flower after bringing to the light. If. however, the tops are getting up pretty well while still in the dark it will be better to bring to light a little sooner rather than have too much of sucli a soft growth as will come under such conditions.

A good light and a common living room temperature is all they need while growing. These directions will -also apply to Chinese Sacred Lily, if grown in soil, but if In a bowl of pebbles and water, follow the directions as given last week in this department. Carnations aad Violets far tae Dwelling. The question is asked if carnations and violets can be grown for window plants during winter? Answer. Violets are not usually a success under the ordinary conditions of house culture, as the ordinary dwelling Is-too warm to suit them.

Fair success may follow if you have a light sunny window In a room which gets quite cool at night; anything above actual freezing, 40 degrees Is good and of course warmer in day says Pearson's Weekly, The analyst begins his examination by making a series of "brews," boiling, filtering, and distilling the matter he is investigating. He uses firing this time various "agents," as they are called, which separate the different classes of poison. This work often takes days of constant labor to' perform, the time varying according to the kind of poison, prusslc acid, for instance, being much easier to detect than strychnine. If his various tests fall, what is left of the animal matter Is mixed with hydrochloric acid and distilled again, after which he knows that the body contains no poison save a metallic one. In his inquiry the expert has made a number of decoctions, each of which is tested in turn.

Suppose he Is testing one. A little of the "brew" is placed In a small glass test tube with some distilled water. Hydrocholic acid is carefully dropped in.

IT Karate Co-art. Detroit, lliea, IT'S 4 to sprinkle the flowers. When using flowers for 'decorating avoid drafts as much as possible in locating your vases or decorations, also proximity to lights, especially above the lights and other heat radiating surfaces. Good deep vases with plenty of water are best where they can be used, also trimming about an Inch of the stems with a sharp knife and changing the water every day will help. Do Xot Expect Too Mack.

Even after observing all the foregoing do not be surprised if sometimes flowers wilt and look badly when used during a party or reception In a room which has been full of people for several hours and so warm that the ladies are obliged to use their fans In order to endure the bad air and close atmosphere resulting therefrom. The keeping quality is also much improved if flowers can be cut several hours before using and placed in deep vesels of cool water and treated aa directed at the beginning of this article before placing in vases for display or use. This applies to flowers of your own cutting. The stock received from the florist should have already been so treated before leaving his store. As to the permanent, practical preservation of flowers in their original form and beauty there is no known process for so doing nor is It likely there ever will be.

Aiiwtrt to Iaamlriea. Bulbs for Christmas Flowers. am asked what bulbs can be planted to flowers for Christmas and when they should be planted and how? Answer. White-Roman Hyacinths, White JCarcissus and the Chinese Narcissus, or sacred lily can all be had for Christmas flowering. The Roman or French Hyacinth should be planted by October 10 to be sure of flowers by Christmas.

The White Narcissus will do if planted by the 15th, or even the 20th of October. The method of planting an care is about the same for both. Of course the sixo of pot will de time. Care in watering, not to keep soaked but not allow to wilt is also essential. These conditions also apply largely to carnations except they will need about 45 to 50 degrees at night; plenty of light In daytime.

If nothing happens the analyst tests again with other agents for certain groups of metals. At last he notices a change, and knows that the poison he Is after belongs to one of three or four. As an Instance, his search shows that the poison is either arsenic, tin or cadmium. He boils the "brew" again, and adds some strong ammonia, and finds the powder in the liquid has disappeared.

Pretty soon all the old oracles of weather wisdom will be as dead and disregarded as the deities of Valhalla or Olympus. New York -v But the life of a fellow being is hanging on results, and he must be sure beyond all doubt. A famous spe-- clal test for arsenic is known as Relnsch's and this he tries.

A little of the suspected liquid is placed in the test tube with some hydrochloric acid. A email piece of copper is dropped in and the liquid warmed.
