Attractive Garden caprice.

The lovely gardens of Lady Wind

attractive by an ingenious little de-
vice. Big holes are bored at regular
intervals in the sides of an upright
barrel. This is filled with rich sCsl

grow Quito the holes. These barrels
are covered with blooms of ivy geran-
iums.

NO MORE VAUDEVILLE.
Judge Hogue of Portland, Enforces an
Old Law.

Vaudeville entertainment in saloons
will cease in Portland, says the Ore
gon Daily Journal
The song -and-dance artist and the
funny man and the prima donna who
perform in theaters where drinks are
sold are vagrants, and have no lawful
occupation, according to Judge Hogue
of the municipal court, and must
seek other means of livelihood.
Women must not visit saloons.
either in the capacity of performers
or visitors, according to the ruling of
the judge. An order to that effect
was issued by the court this morning
and the police were instructed to put
it into effect at once.
If the ruling is observed, it will
close the big concert halls of the north
end, and, indeed, all vaudeville shows
given in places where drinks are sold.
The rulings were the result Of the
discovery of a section of a city ordi-
nance positively prohibiting vaudeville
performances in saloons. No effort
has ever been made to enforce the
ordinance, but it will be rigidly en-
forced in the future, according to
Judge Hogue.

How Some Husbands Wind Up.

There are a lot of women in this
world who think that there's only one
side TO the married relation. and that's
their side. When one OF them marries,
she starts right out to train her hus-
band into kind old Carlo. who'll go
downtown for her every morning and
come home every night, fetching u
snug little basketful OF money in his
mouth and wagging his tail as he lays
it at her feet. Then it's pat on the
head and Mice doggie" And he's
taught to stand around evenings, re-
trieving her gloves and handkerchief
and swapping up with pleased lick
ing of his chops any little word that
she may throw to him. But you let
him start In to have little fun
scratching and stretching himself or
paving her. and it's Charge, Carlow
and bad doggie"
OF course no man ever believes when
he marries that he's going to wind up
as kind Carlo, who droops his head so
that the children can pull his ears and
who sticks up his paw so as to make
1t easier for his wife to pull his leg.
But it's simpler than you think.-From

Your first report looks so good that
I'm little afraid Of ii. Figures don't

you say in your report Is true. But Is
there anything you don't say In III
A good many men are truthful on the

dribble out the bad ones like a fellow

They'll yell for week that the busi-
ness Of their department has increased

worse impression than II both sides OF

months to wake up to what had hap.
