The aviator was worried about Annette, and the valet was always sad on general principles when he was away from London. But Tarzan, neither by word nor manner, revealed the sorrow in his heart, As Tarzan started forward along the forest trail, Tibbs asked timidly: “But what of Prince Sborov?” The ape man shrugged. “Soon he'll become more afraid of the jungle than he is of Brown. He'll follow and catch up with us when we stop for the night.” DAN DUNN.

Spiraea salicifolia. FROM. Newfoundland to Georgia and west to the Rocky Mountains, as well as in Europe and Asia, the meadow-sweet is known. Beginning with the first of June and until the last week in ‘August, the flowers are in bloom. Seek the n‘nendow-aweet in the swamps, along fence rows, low mead- ows, and even ditches. The small R rather rounded, and there are many stamens and from five to eight pistils. The saw-edged, oblong or oval leaves grow alternately along the red- dish smooth stem. ‘The fleecy white flowers that seem to be untouched by the dust of the road may be seen from quite a dis- tance.

So she follows & rule that is known to be ideal among many flowers—a few each day. ‘When a floret opens and even be- fore it does, the mature stigmas over- top the incurved and undeveloped stamens. Any guest ocoming from s ripe flower will have the pollen needed d the stigmas stay fresh, even th the stamens have shed their pollen. _ Banana Farms Give Jobs.
