Keep the weeds down here. Re-
member that every weed you allow to
grow and form seed will furnish
progeny enough to fill the entire gar
den next season, and hold steadily to
the determination that not a weed
shall escape your vigilance-and your
hoe.
If plants are thick in the beds thin
them out at once. Every plant that
is not needed there robs the necessary
plants of the nUtriment that should be
concentrated on them. Do not throw
away the plants that you pull up.
Some friend or neighbor may be glad
to get them. If no one wants them,
put them in a corner by themselves
and let them furnish a supply Of
flowers for cutting.-Outing.

pageantry, the Hebraic ceremony, the
oriental splendor But he can organ

New Leader in Earnest.
Voliva is but SO years. of age. His
hair is black, not dark brown. His
eyes are deep-set, shrewd, very dark,
and somewhat piercing. His sallow
cheek is the esthetics; his thin, close
set lips are the scipIinarian's, not
only of others but of his own spirit
He eats but two meals day, frequent
| ly only one; sometimes not at ALL
He clothes himself with ''neatness" in
the fashion of the conventionally prim
Protestant miniSter-white tie, frock
| coat low-cut waistcoat He never
smiles, not because he is oppressed by
his own dignity, but because he sees
no occasion for mirth. He does not at
tempt to impress his visitor-Dowie
actually made four men out of five
tremble in his presence.
Voliva is an American, a Hoosier,
who is so entirely an American that
he is ignorant Of what is his racial
stock. He has been heard to say that
| he fancies his peculiar name may be
French, but he doesn't know.
In 1900, DR.. VOliva became associated
with Dowie's church. A few months
later he went to Cincinnati. where he
remained six months, and in October.
| 1901, he went to Australia after be-
| ing ordained an overseer. DR.. Voliva
returned from Australia to take charge
of affairs at Zion City a few weeks
ago.
Where 100000 Was Spent.
| L have no doubt that Zion City and
its numerous industries would be in a
thriving condition to-day with Dowie
still in absolute contpol if the original
plans had been adhered to-" said Attor-
ney Samuel w. Packard 1.-The chief
and, indeed, | may say the whole
trouble has come because Dowie took
| 100000 out of the lace industry to
embellish his private residences at
Zion City and in Michigan. The orr
', ginal plans never contemplated any
such thing. They never intended that
| Dowie should appropriate money for
| his own USE"
Speaking of the purchase of the land
and the organization of the factor. es,
which he had conducted, Attorney
Packard said:
1T was in 1899 that l first began he
| gotiations for the purchase of the land.
| We worked secretly through a real es-
tate agent SO that the public would not
know of the venture in advance. |
| looked into the matter whether the en-
terprise could be incorporated W tn
DOwie as the sole owner. This was
found impossible because the state con-
stitution of 1870 forbids it. A corpor-
alton is forbidden to speculate in real
estate. We then issued certificates
which guarantee six per cent Millions
of dollars was raised 1t was provided
that all the profits above those paid to
| holders of certificates should be rein
vested in the enterprise out of which
it came. Instead of doing this Dowie
took the 100000 for his own use.

blue In color. 1t consists Of a short
military jacket with red trimmings
around the collar and cuffs and brass
buttons down the front. The trousers

The Turkish letter carriers wear the

headgear consists of a tasseled fez.
