EARLY RISERS.
Peculiar Family Custom-The Fathers In
somnia the Cause of 1t.


Some of the cottagers on one of the
less thickly settled islands in the harbor
reports the peculiar custom of a native
farmers family that lives close by. I'm
til they got accustomed to it, they were
awakened every morning between 4 and
5 O'Clock by this farmer ana his family
of four children, who begin the days
labors at that time. The father is
troubled with insomnia and cannot
sleep after 2 am Therefore he has es-
tablised the-customsof beginning the day
at this time of year just as soon as it is
light enough to see. His two boys are
about II and Is years old, and the Oldest
girl is about IA years. He gets up and
gets breakfast for them, but his wife
doesn't get up until she wants to. which
is much later. The children help their
father in milking the COWS, of which
there are about dozen, and driving
the m to pasture and then carrying the
milk about the island
The other morning the oottagers heard
the father calling to his children to get
up. They heard distinctly. Here, it
is half past five O'Clock and the day
most gone, and we amt done stroke
of work yet.n
The children take nap during the
day. The other morning one of the little
boys went off shooting crows between 8

WILD FLOWED
An Occasion for Special Interest In Them
A Fine Display at the Store of Eastman
Bros. & Bancroft.

Mr.. E. D. Eastman, of Eastman Bros
& Bancroft, is great lover of wild flow
ers The other day the idea occurred to
him to decorate the store with them
and have wild flower day" TIL e
clerks were consulted, andsaxpressad their
Willingness to decorate their several de-
partments Time was allowed them
wherein to make excursions down the
harbor to the islands and over to Cape
Elizabeth and throughout the surround
ing country as far back as Black strap.
The result was that throughout the
great store yesterday there was beauti-
full and fragrant concentration and a
tasteful and attractive dispensation of
all the wild flowers and foliage of the
season and region, from COW lily to a
'-nine-tail. wild rose to a wayside
daisy, and pine tree to to a cluster of
ferns.
There were over 200 feet of daisy rope,
strung hither and yon; There were huge
yellow clumps of buttercups and banks
of evergreen and clover. There was also a
jar of tulip tree blossoms, looking al
most artificial in their delicate green
coloring and stiff outline of petals and
stamens. There are only a few tulip
trees in the city, one being on Pearl
street, another on Park, and there may
be one or two others.
There were more flowers than the
PRESS can name. but how to name
them and know all about them was ex-
planned by the large, framed picture in
the front window that contained many
of the colored plates of the PRESS port
folios of the Wild Flowers of America.
Several of the primary school teachers
of the city have decided to make use OF
these colored plates and accompanying
descriptions in the instruction of their
pupils in botany.
Last evening, as a result OF the very
successful cooperation of the employees
in CARRYING out Mr.. Eastman's idea,
which is brand new one, there was
very informal and pleasant gathering
of about 20 young women and young
men in the basement of the store, and
ice cream and cake was served ad libi-
tum, and jollity and merriment dis
pensed ad infnitum.
Yesterdays wild Flower Day" will
be extended through today.
