BEAUTIFY YOUR HOMES.
Mayor Lebold Urges the Adornment
of Abilene's Lawns and Streets in
an Open Letter.

al Opeu LeIIeI'
The following letter from Mayor C.
H. Lebold is a timely and earnest argu-
ment for the further identifying of
Abilene's homes and will be read with
interest:
To the residents of Abilene:
have been impressed with the great
Importance of having our city present
a neat, clean, attractive and homelike
appearance. To accomplish this will
require the assistance of all residents,
which should be cheerfully given for
the following reasons:
First, 1t will add much to the
pleasure of living.
Second, BY keeping everything neat
and well-cleaned of trash we will
greatly benefit the health of our fami-
lies.
Third, By keeping our city in a
heathfuI condition and neat in appear
ance, we will attract others to locate
here. 1t is my opinion that during the
next twelve months many persons will
seek homes in Kansas and with proper
vigilance and care, and by following
the suggestions in this brief note, we
will get our full share. Nothing will
add more to the general appearance of
our city than flowers, shade trees
along the streets, and well-kept
lawns. According to Prof. Blake's
predictions, which past experience
has proved to be quite reliable, we are
to be favored with an abundance of
rain during the first half of the year.
If his predictions prove true the present
season will be one of the best we have
ever had for planting trees and seeding
lawns. To realize what individual
effort will do toward identifying your
homes aud at the same time our city,
you need only pay visit to the block
south of the central school building
and fronting on Spruce street. By
spending small amount of money and
some well directed labor. we can all
have beautiful yards. The city govern
ment will endeavor to take good GALE
of the streets, but the identifying of
our city depends very largely on the
individual efforts of the residents.
G. II. LEBOLD. Mayor.

The First Victim.

The first one of this vicinity to suffer
from Oklahoma troubles is j. L. Blu
chanon, who went from here some two
or three weeks ago overland and
camped near the borders of the terri
tory. Being unused to out of door life
he was attacked by acute rheumatism
and was brought home Sunday on a
stretcher, suffering extreme pain. He
lies at his brother-in-law's place north
east of the city where, under the care
of DR.. Ross, he is doing well.

BAPTIST CHURCH.

Here, too, were flowers until the eye
almost wearied of the banks of beauty
The morning services were as usual ex.
cept that they had an especial appro-
priateness to the day and were elo.
quent with thoughts of the risen
Christ, to whom the Easter-tide is dedi.
Gated. In the evening was held the
Sunday school concert of which the
program was given Saturday. The
house was crowded, the little folks ac-
quilted themselves admirably and the
exercises were much enjoyed by the
audience.

EPISCOPAL CHURCH.

The Episcopal church, as has been
its custom for ages, observed Easter as
the Queen Festival of the year. A
great variety of flowers were used in
decorating st, Johns church. The
greater part of the rare and radian!
house plants were loaned by Mrs. J. II
Mahan, Mrs. Tina Ball and Mrs. Ray
mcnd Miller, the latter also giving a
beautiful cross of white blossoms. The
Gala lilies were sent from Los Angeles.

The lectern was adorned with new
hanging of white-appropriate color

white and gold, and the sacred mono

rounded by a passion-vine, whose
flower is said to be more identified with
Easter than any other, not even ex-
cepting the lily and the rose. The
rector, Rev. w. D. Christian, preached
an appropriate sermon from Phillippi-
ans 8, 10, and administered the Holy
Communion. The choir, consisting of
Mrs. Fl. j. Hodge, Miss Sarah Bonnell,
Mr.. w. FL. Sharr and Mr.. Geo. Up

most beautifully. An offertory was

What q Lemon Will Do.
New York Weekly.J

Lemonade made from the Juice of the
lemon is one of the best and safest drinks
for any person, whether in health or not.
1t is suitable for all stomach diseases, ex-
cellent in sickness, in cases of iaundice,
gravel, liver complaint, Inflammation of the
bowels, and fevers. It is specific against
worms and skin complaints. The pippin
crushed may be used with sugar and water,
and taken as drink. Lemon juice is the
best antiscorbutic remedy known. 1t not
onlh cures the disease. but prevents it.
Sailors make daily use of it for this pur-
pose. We advise every one to rub their
gums with lemon juice to keep them in a
healthy condition. The hands and nails
are also kept clean, white, soft, and supple
by the daily use of lemon instead of soap.
1t also prevents chilblains. Lemon is used
in intermittent fevers, m xed with strong,
hot, black coffee, without sugao Neu-
ralgia, it is said. may be cured by rubbing
the part affected with a cut lemon. 1t is
valuable also to cure warts. 1t will re-
move dandruff by rubbing the roots of the
hair with it. 1t will alleviate, and finally
cure, coughs and colds, and heal diseased
lunge, if taken hot on going to bed at night
Its uses are manifold, and the more we en-
ploy it internally the better we shall find
ourselves. A doctor in Rome is trying it
experimentally in malarial fevers with
great success, and thinks that it will in
time supersede quinine.

PICKED THE WRONG POCKET.
The Old Man Played 1t Fine at
Brighton.
New York Sun.

| New York SUM-
One OF the eXcursiOnists landing at
Brighton Beach the other day seemed ex-
actly fitted to the term green as grass
de was an Oldish man, with tho scent Of
burdocks in his clothes, and as he moved
around he left the trail of hayseed behind
him. He had no sooner left the train than
he approached young man who was
| negligently leaning against post at the
| entrance to the depot and said:
by gum but this is nice. I've got
away for day and I'm going right in and
have slashing good timen
That's right, Uncle," kindly replied the
young man; that's what we come here for
to enjoy ourselves 1t takes money,
though"
"You bet it GOES, but I've got the rhino
right in my clothes. Bin saving up for
eight mouths. Pm jest goin' right in re-
gardless of expense. Look k-a-here!'
He pulled fat wallet from his hind
pocket and patted it affectionately snd
confdentially whispered: ...
"R-h-i-n o, rihno! Come and have q
drink of sarsaparilly and some ice crea NJ"
The two were soon fast friends. Several
philanthropists sought to signal the old
man that he was in tow of pickpocket,
but he was Oblivious. The young man
"steered" him from place to place, paying
for soda water, ginger ale aud peanuts in
the most liberal manner, but somehow
every time he attempted to 60 down into
that hind pocket the hind pocket wasn't
there. After three hours hard and perse-
vering work he finally got his fingers on
the wallet and quickly transferred it.
Then he suddenIv announced.
Say You wait right here minute.
There's a party out there l want to speak
to-"
"All right" responded hayseed, looking
up from his ice cream, "but don't be gone
long. Pm a-having the gosh-durndest best
time in my life, and don't want nuthin'
to happen"
Something did happen, however. The
young man did not return. Several hours
later old hayseed went up to Manhattan
Beach and found him sitting on bench
gazing pensively out to sea.
"Scuse me-" he said, "but if it's the
stomach acb I've got vial of peppermint
essence here"
"Sir! Are you speaking to me?" de-
manded the young man as he bristled up.
"Yes, sorter to you. You are feelin' sor-

stuffed full of hair-dye dodgers I'd gin a

And he pulled great wad of greenbacks
from his pocket and patted it fondly, and
said: ....

simply an old rutabaga from the agricul-
tural deestricks. Let's have glass of pop
