The rarest thing in the vegetable
kingdom is the double cocoanut palm
which grows only in the Seychellarum
Islands in the Indian Ocean. There
are but two in the United States, one
in the Phipps Conservatory at Pitts
burg and the other O plant two feet
high recently acquired by the National
Conservatory at Washington. Some
years ago one of the wealthy rajahs
of India offered a ships cargo for a
single specimen of the rarity For Il
long time it was supposed that this
variety of palm grew in the sea. The
seed requires seven years to ripen,
and are very costly.

District Attorney Buckmaster Orders

Cigarettes to Minors.
VIOLATIONS OF LAW APPALLING.
Nearly Every Dealer in the City is now Sell

and Many are Confirmed Smokers.

The acquaintance of the minor and

day District Attorney A =, Buck
master ordered The Chief Of Police 70
give positive orders 10 all dealers IN
tobacco 10 stop the sale of cigarettes
to minors. The State law provides 4
heavy penalty for violations Of this
Law aud dealers may be fined fifty dol
lars and costs for every violation OF
the law In the past year the law has
been allowed to become dead letter
in Kenosha and in nearly every store
in the city minors can purchase cigar
cites without question. The result OF
th1 violation of the law is appalling
and it is estimated that there are now
more than a thousand boys in Kenosha
under the age of twenty-one who are
using cigarettes and fully half this
number are confirmed smokers.
The cigarette habitsis fascinating
one and it is especially harmful to
growing boys. On the streets OF the
city every day in the week boys not
over seven years of age may be seen
putting at the deadly coffin nail. Most
of these cigarettes the boys make
themselves, but the law is so framed
that it prevents the sale OF tobacco
and cigarette papers to these young
boys. If the law is properly enforced
it will be impossible for these small
boys to'secure the cigarettes. The law
also protects the boys by making It a
crime to give cigarettes to tnem and
this evasion of the law will be checked
There is little doubt but that the
proper enforcement of the law will
meet with considerable opposition
among the boys as many Of them are
confirmed smokers and they will fight
for what they consider their rights.
However, with a few arrests and
heavy fines the dealers will be forced
to be satisfied with the sale of the
paper cigars to parties who have pass.
ed the age limit.
The District Attorney will have the
support Of all the better element of the
city in his effort to save the boys from
this habit.

SACRED CONCERT
Mems Club of Baptist Church Give Sacred
Concert Sunday Evening.

An appreciative audience taxing the
almost capacity of the Y. M. &. A.
hall and the adjoining parlors, was
present Sunday evening to listen to
the second sacred concert given during
the last two months by the choir Of the
First Baptist church under the auspices
of the Mems club. The regular quar-
tette composed Of Mr.. Paul UT, bass
and choister, Mr.. ]. A. Hague, tenor,
Mrs. Richard Hawkins, soprano, and
Mrs. T. j. Marx, alto, was ably assist
ed in the chorus work by Mr.. Elkerton,
bass, Mr.. Mass, tenor, Miss Lulu
Wood, soprano, and Mrs. Miller, alto.
The chorus work, consisting of two
selections, namely: mighty Jehova"
by Bellini and IT heard the voice of
Jesus Say" by Palmer was very eff
fective1y done. The ever acceptable
selection by Shelley, entitled "Hark,
Hark, my Soul" was rendered with
power BY the regular quartette, sup
ported by Katherine Bostwick Wolfe in
the soprano obligato. Mr.. Hague and

The solo work was also admirably
performed. Mr.. John t. Kitzrow sang
"The Vesper Prayer" by Bracket;
Mr.. Utt rendered 1.-The Lord is King"
by Coombs; Mr.. Hague and Mrs.
Wolfe each contributed a solo selec-
ton. Great credit is due all who con-
tributed to the program for the service
they rendered to their listening
friends. Indeed it is doubtful whether
such forms of christian service ought
not be more generally employed by the
churches. Recognition needs to be
made in connection with this concert
of the part performed by the accom-
PIANIST, whose part of the program was
without doubt the most exacting and
firing. The Mems club publicly &C
know1edges its Indebtedness to Mr..
Jas. Bailey, whose faithful service
made the success of the concert posi-

The Club also takes pleasure in an
nouncing that the third sacred concert
will be given on the last Sunday in
June, which will he the last until the

WARNED AND LET GO.
Sidewalk Riders let off With a Lecture by
Chief Timme.

Sidewalk Riders let off With Lecture by
Chief Timme.
Chief of Police Timme did not press
the charges against the eleven men
caught Saturday violating the ordi-
nance against riding bicycles on the
sidewalk. The chief does not wish to
appear arbitrary by starting in to en-
force the ordinance on day when the
streets were so wet as to be almost i'm
passable for bicycles and contented
himself with warning the offenders
not to get caught again.
The men appeared at the police Of
fee Saturday evening and gave their
names and addresses. They were told
that they would not be prosecuted on
the present charge but that if they
were caught again it would go doubly
hard with them. The Chief considers
that every bicycle rider has now had
fair warning that the ordinance
against riding on the sidewalks is to
be enforced &nd beginning today all
riders caught violating the ordinance
will be arrested and punished to the
extent of the law.

a
Law Case

The daily papers not long ago
reported trial case where a man
sued medicine concern which had
offered a hundred dollars for a
case their remedy could not cure.
1t seems that the man had not
been cured, though he had taken
the remedy. The defence was
that he had not taken the medicine
long enough. He did not get his
hundred dollars.
We allude to this because Vinol
does not give a slippery guarantee.
We sell it on its merits and
leave it to the user If the user
comes back with his empty bottle
and says :" took that bottle of
Vinol, and l can't see that it did
me any good we don't argue
the matter. We say or our clerk
says, Sorry that You happen to
be among the few - here's your
dollar "

less than one out Of a hundred,
