Slater has adopted the following plan to
feed tramps: A families of the city will
be furnished with meal tickets. When a
tramp applies for something to eat he will
be given q meal ticket, which he will pre-
sent to the city marshal, who In turn will
give the tramp three hours work on the
rock Pile. After the work has been COM
pleted the ticket will be counter-signed
by the marshal. The tramp will then
proceed to the mayor whose signature he
will secure, when he may proceed to one
Of the restaurants and eat to his hearts
content" We would / X to see the plan
adopted in Lexington.
Lay a head of cabbage on a fiat plate
and press the leaves open with your hand,
firmly but gently, SO as not to break them
Off. When they all lie out fiat stab the
firm yellow heart through several times
with a sharp knife until its outlines are
lost, and then place flowers at random
over the cabbage. Roses are prettlest,
but any flower which has q firm, stiff
stem, will do. Press the stems down
through the leaves and put in sufficient
green to vary prettiiy. The outer leaves
of the cabbage. the only ones to be seen
when the flowers are In, form q charming
background, far prettier than any basket.
