TAUGHT
NEW LESSON To
HIS CUSTOMER

A local florist who had Just received an
order for table decorations today called
UP the customer In haste.
Say" he said, those bouquets and
centrepieces won't last half through the
dinner You've mixed roses and mignon-
ette. and those two flowers simply won't
hitch You'd better let me carry out the
designs TO suit myself"
The customer at the other end OF the
wire evidently agreed TO the suggestion
for the florist hung up the receiver with
a satisfied air.
Most people who order flowers make
the same mistake that that woman
made" he said They do not know that
certain flowers positively cannot get along
together. Take roses and mignonette, and
when combined I'm any floral piece the
whole thing willis in less than an hour"

his friends and should protect them.
How many harmless toads are killed
by wanton boys because they are ugly
and go hopping about in the garden?
Even some foolish people think that
warts on the hands are caused by
toads. Josh Billings said: Better
not know so much than to know so
many things that are not true" The
toad is real friend to the gardener.
He eats bugs, slugs and great va
rlety of insects that prey on fruits and
plants. Let him alone. Many hawks
are harmless and never touch a chick
en- but do destroy mice. But perhaps
the best of all our friends are the
birds. They eat up vast quantities
of weed seeds and destroy unnum
bered thousands of insects that are
destructive to our fruits. Watch an
old mother robin and see what she
usually has in her bill as she flies
to her nest to feed her young. 1t is
nearly always worm or some bug
that would damage our crops. Once
in a while Mr.. Robin 'Redbreast eats
cherry but he earns it a hundred
times over. See the common sap
sucker as he hops about on the trunk
or limbs of your apple trees What
is he looking for? He does not suck

the sap; he merely digs into the bark
to get insects. He is your friend.
The wanton destruction of birds
should be made crime punishable
with a fine or Imprisonment. Our
Iowa brethren seem to look at this
matter in the right light. The last
legislature enacted law to take eff
feet after the fourth of next July,
that reads as follows: mo person
shall, within the state of Iowa, kill
or catch or have in his or her posses
sion, living or dead any wild bird
other than a game bird, or purchase,
or offer for sale, transport or ship
within or without the state, any such
wild bird after it has been killed
or caught An exception is made in
the case of cage birds kept as pets.
The society women will not be allowed
to decorate their hats with birds,
dead or alive" This is a good law
and should be enforced to the letter
and no doubt will be. Nothing can
proclaim the emptiness of a womans
head more than to see a bird on her
hat.
