A visit of The Advertiser representative to homes Of contestants finds each one thoroughly enthusiastic upon the subject of home gardening. All seem to be of the opinion that even in case they should not carry O6 the first prize for either front of back yard, their effort would not have been wasted. Right you are, for the beauties to be brought out will serve to make home life more cheerful than many times the amount of either first prize. if ap- piled in any other direction.
 While a great many pub.ic-spirited cit izens have already written to the Gar den Editor expressing their satisfaction with The Advertiser in inaugurating such . move. further expression would be ap- preciated from other residents as all helps to keep the good work moving.

HINTS FOR AMATEURS.
Transplanting Tulips and Other

A steady succession of bloom. from early spring to late autumn. this is the result. the accomplishment most ardently desired by the amateur as we'll as by the professional gardener. It can only be ob- tained. In gardens of limited area, by means of transplanting such of the spring and early summer bloomers as may be safely displaced in favor of more timely blossom-bearers from time to time. Tu- lips and other spring-flowering bulbs should be transplanted. the instant they cease blooming. to the secluded hooks and corners of the garden of little service for other uses

DENIED BY WASHINGTON
HAS BOUGHT NO SUMMER HOME
 IN MASSACHUSETTS,.
Famous Educator Has Leased . Small Cottage in South Wey- mouth in Order to Be Near
 His Summer Work.

Tuskegee. April 7.-(Special)- )-Booker T. Washington. in regard to the report that he had bought colonial mansion for summer residence in South Ney- mouth. Mass, today said:
 Tt is rather interesting to go to bed feeling that one is poor man and to wake up in the morning and find that he is the owner, according to the newspa- pcrs. of an old colonial mansion in Mns. sachusetts The fact is. I have bought no house of any character whatever in Massac husetts and am not intending to do so, and an not able to buy one. For several years l have rented small cot tage in Massachusetts during the sum mer so that l could be near the work which I usuall' devote myself to during that season. A few months ago friend of mine in New York bought small cot tagc for himself In South Weymouth which he has permitted me to rent or lease for the summer in the same way that have been renting house for the summer for sometime. There is no truth whatever in the statement that have bought the ancestral home of any fa- nous Massachusetts people.

Smells.

Since the Rev. J. H. Rasmus of
Chicago delivered his illumination
against the elaborate exhibition of
feminine vanity in the display of
costly headgear and strong perfum-
cry in church great many preach
ers and newspapers have enlarged
upon the theme, generally in SYM
pathy with the animadversions Of
Mr.. Rasmus. Now we wish to
register a remonstrance against such
unjust criticism. Those preachers
who argue against women's coming
to church adorned like the lilies Of
the field, in more resplendent glory
than Solomon displayed in gorgeous
colorings,N redolent in seductive
odors and glistening in fresh paint,
are discouraging the sources of their
own sustenance and their opportu-
mites for success in their profession.
If the women are not welcomed at
church "dressed to kill'' they will
not go at all, and if the women will
not go to be ''seen of men," then the
men will not go to see them, in
which contingency the preacher is
out ola vocation or may preach to
'sabsent seats"
What's the matter with "costly
headgear?" Doesn't it look as we'll
as a three-cent calico sunbonnet or
a sstraw pile" ornamented with a
dead ROSTERS tail? And isn't it a
fact that the more elaborate the
hat and the more bewildering its
adornment the more attention it at
tracts? What is the woman's hat
for?. Who wants to see a woman at
church looking as she does when
not ''togged' in her ''best bib and
tucker?" No, Mr.. Preacher, DON'T
discourage the women from making
their best presentation in the mat
ter-of personal adornment.
And as to perfumery, well, there
are smells and, smells; pleasing
odors and disagreeable effiuvia. In
the confined atmosphere of church
the altar of roses as an aroma is
much to be preferred to the odor Of
half-digested onions and emanations
| resulting from bad health.

Dispatches report that the Pope
has accepted the American terms
for the purchase of the triar lands in
the Philippines but insists that the
purchase money shall not be paid to
the friars but go to the church to be
applied to the purchase of other
bishoprics. 1t is probable that the
United States is indifferent as to
where the purchase money goes.
It's only object is to promote the in
terest of the inhabitants of the is
lands. The Filipinos are bitterly
opposed to the friars and will not
tolerate them. When the Span
iards were forced to withdraw from
the interior the friars fed to Manila
where they have since remained. Il
they return to their former parishes
it will require an armed force to
protect them. In such state it is
best for all concerned that the friars
should be eliminated as a condition
of the pacification of the people.

There has been hot canvass with
numerous candidates for most of the
offices. The contest for member of
assembly has finally narrowed down
to two candidates, ]. A. Frear and
Cotton Whitcomb. For sheriff, A.

Sonju and James WATSON compete
for the nomination. For district
attorney there are H. H. Dean, Geo.
Cakes, S. n. Hawkins, S. ]. Brad
ford and Spencer Haven. For
county clerk Louis Ostby, H. S.
Oferdahl and Louis Peterson are in
the field. For clerk of the court the
contest is among w. ] Egbert, w.
H. Enrich, w. FL. 'behrens and
Frank Johnson. For register John
Chinook and w. S. Fleming are
the most formidable. For treasurer
w. H. Frissell, A. J. Pennington
and ]. A. Smith are each hustling
to get the votes. John D. O'Keeffe

office of county superintendent of

Women May Vote.

Women, who are qualified as to
age and residence, may vote this fall
but only for county superintendent
of schools and state superintendent
of public instruction. The law per-
hitting women to vote for these Of
ficers has been on the statute books
for a number Of years, but as no
provision was made in the law for
ballot and taking the vote it was in
effective. The last legislature pass
ed law directing election boards to
prepare separate ballots and boxes
and an additional bollot clerk to Sc
cure to those women who choose to
vote the benefit intended by this
law.
