WILD FLOWER BEAUTY.
Everyone Can Add This to Her Home
and the Gathering and Arrange
ment Is Most Interesting.

Not every one has a flower garden,
but every one who spends even a part
of the summer in the country has the
freedom OF the roadsides, pastures.
meadow and woods; the wild gardens
which belong to every man and no
man, where every one is free to gather
and no one to forbid. OF course it is
by courtesy and custom that this free
dom extends to the fields, and woods,
and perhaps the unacknowledged obi
cation enhances the privilege of leav-
ing the long. narrow roadside flower
beds and looking for rarer and more
effective things along fences and
hedges, and in Swallowed and SOLITARY
places.
If one has acquired the habit of wild
flower gathering, and the knowledge OF
what to gather and how to bring her
gleanings safely home, and the Still
further knowledge of the best decora
tive effect to be gotten from them, she
has reached possibility of great sat
isfaction and everyday happiness

Young Lady Left by Fever in Worry Weak
State Uses DR.. William Pink Pills
with Gratifying Results.
After a fever, such as typhoid or scar
let, has run its full course there remains
the recovery Of strength. The tonic that
will most rapidly increase the red cor
puscles in the blood is the one that will
most quickly restore color to the pale
cheeks, strength to the weak muscles,
aud elasticity to the sluggish nerves. So
far nothing has ever been produced su-
perior to DIR. Williams Pink Pills for
this purpose.
Miss Midendorf had been i'll with
typhoid fever for fourteen weeks. She
had a good physician who carried her
safely through the critical stages. When
he left, nothing remained I'd be done e1-
cept to build up her strength, which was
very feeble, and he gave her some pre-.
scriptions for that purpose. Here, how
ever, she met with disappointment.
II took the Doctors tonics," she says,
"for two months after I had recovered
from the fever, but they did not do me
the good looked for. My strength came
back so slowly that scarcely seemed to
be making any progress at all. Just
then I read in book thrown in our
yard some striking testimonials showing

iams' Pink Pills are the best remedy to
use in all cases of weakness, from what
ever cause the system may be run down.
In cases Of debility due to overwork they
minister fresh strength and overcome
nervous symptoms. They are specific
for an@mia or bloodlessness. They are
particularly helpful to girls on the verge
of womanhood. They meet all the re-
quirements Of the period known as the
change of life. They correct spring
languor. They strengthen weak diges-
ton and rouse up sluggish organs. No
other tonic combines SO many virtues.

Those authors who give us inspiration

want noble ideals. and these are found

Mrs. Browning says: I'VE get no
good by being ungenerous even to a
book" Outside of earnest and vigorous
study. the books that we go to in our
intimate hours should not be approached
in spirit of bargaining. Books are
like friends; when we take them our
best, they give us their best in return.
Some of us spend so much time in hest
tating and deciding what books to read
that we end by reading none at all.
A certain degree of courtesy should be
extended to every book. Read it's title
page, make the acquaintance thus of its
author, always notice the name of the
publisher. If the volume be one you
like, enter in blank book it's name and
the date at which you began and finished
it. and copy any sentences or passages
that were especially pleasing to you.

STOP WHISTLE BLOWING
POLICE TO PUT AN END TO AN
NoYANCE.
Complained of by Resident of South
east Section of City-Regulations
on the Subject.

The blowing of whistles by engineers
upon the steam railroad trains is to be
stopped by the police. The District Com
missioners and Maj. Sylvester read the edi-
toral printed in Thursdays Star calling
their attention to the fact that the enforce
ment of the law might be of benefit to the
thousands OF persons who are constantly
annoyed by the noises. Mr.. r. p. Miller,
a resident of the southeast section of the
city, In communication printed In Thurs
days Star called attention to the great
nuisance and annoyance by the use OF
whistles upon the railroad In his section.
He Is only one of many persons, however.
who have been similarly annoyed and who
have spent many sleepless nights because
the engineers have been permitted to vio-
late the law without fear of being prose-
cuted The law covering the question says:
Police Regulation.
mo bell, gong, horn. whistle. drum or
other noise-making article. instrument or
device shall be struck or sounded in any
of the places mentioned In section of ar
ticle of these regulations for any pur-
pose whatsoever except as provided in sec
ton 2 of article 10 of these regulations:
provided. that street cars may continue the
use VI n tlii6 gong pt Deil anu Siid4i
strike a gong at every street crossing and
where otherwise required to give warning;
and bicycles, tricycles and motor vehicles
shall sound a suitable bell or gong when
necessary to warn persons of their ap
proach.'
The places referred to as being mention
ed In article 1 of section s include any
street, avenue alley. highway footway,
sidewalk, parking other public space.
Having had their attention attracted TO
the failure to enforce the police regula-
tons in this respect. the REGULATE which
prohibits the blowing of horns in the cele-
bration of the Christmas holidays, the
Commissioners and chief of police saw no
way out of the matter except to direct that
the ordinance must be obeyed In order to
accomplish this end order was sent out
by Maj. Sylvester yesterday to his several
lieutenants to have their men see that per-
sons who violate the section quoted are
brought into court and prosecuted.
