Haugan, aged sixty-two, vice-president of the Chicago Clearing House Association, died suddenly with heart disease, this morning. - Of Mannerism. Mannerism is pardonable and Is sometimes even agreeable when the manner, though vicious, Is natural. Few readers, for example, would be willing to part with the mannerism of Milton or of Burke. But a mannerism which does not sit easy on the mannerist, which has been adopted on principle and which can be sustained only by constant effort is always offensive. Macaulay. n

The soil can be turned up just where you want It and as yon want it by tbe use of the spade, while the plow works alike throughout the garden, though the soil may vary in depth and nature to a considerable extent. A spaded garden always looks best St the beginning, and looks count in ' gardening as well as elsewhere.
