LAKEMONT PARK.
Wesley Motter Starts on Fourth Year as
Landscape Gardener at this Resort.

Wesley Motter Starts on Fourth Year as
Landscape Gardener at this Resort.
While for some years Lakemont park
has enjoyed the reputation Of contain
ing large variety of flowers and more
beautifully designed floral surroundings
than any resort of the kind in the coun-
try, and has compared we'll in this re-
spect with the public grounds found In
the larger cities, this beautiful spot the
coming season will be doubly entitled to
this honor.
Wesley Motter, who starts on his
fourth season as the landscape gardener
at the resort, with corps Of assistants,
are just now busily engaged in putting
the flower beds and shrubbery in trim
for the coming season Mr.. MOtter
during the past winter has planned q
number of innovations in the way Of
designs and other floral make-ups that,
for uniqueness and beauty, will eclipse
anything in that line that has hereto
fore been seen at the place.
During the past winter Mr.. Motter
has propagated and cared for thousands
OF flower cuttings and plants which
were kept in the park greenhouse. The
more hardy Of the flowers are now
being set out in the beds at the lake,
while yesterday some fifteen wagon
loads were transferred to the hotbeds
near Mr.. Motter's home at the top Of
park hill.
While the plants which will be set
out are almost numberfess, the location
OF every one is provided for and Mr..
Motter can tell you now where they
will be seen during the summer. Dur
ing the winter he prepared his blue
prints, covering the principal flower
beds, and when the time comes to set
out the plants, the assistants consult
the print and find the exact location for
every flower and plant.
Mr.. Motter, during his incumbency
as landscape gardener at the resort has
proven to be the right man in the right
place. He is tireless in his efforts to
make the resort a place Of beauty for
ally and that his work is appreciated is
found in the commendation which is
accorded this feature Of the park from
Its thousands Of visitors each season.

What Generosity Means.

MANY people get the credit of being
generous who never felt single gen.
erous impulse in their lives" says a
close student of human nature.
Their generosity, 50 called, has con.
sisted simply in formal, cold, grudging
almsgiving, carried out at the call OF
duty and unaccOmpanied by any spon-
taneous burst of feeling or sympathy.
"The highest generosity is full of
strong, unhesitating self-effacement and
always inspires, except in debased ma
lures, feelings of gratitude and affec-
ton. Almsgiving is one of the least
of its attributes. 1t more often takes
the form of helpfulness, sympathy and
understanding 1t gives forth compass
sion and encouragement of Il kind
which is far beyond money value.
The secret of generosity is unself-
ishness, and the way to acquire it is
to cultivate universal love and sym
pathy st. Paul Pioneer Press.

NO MEDICINE,


But a Change of Food Gave Relief.
Many persons are learning that
drugs are not the thing to rebuild
WORKOUT nerves, but proper food is
required.
There is a certain element in the
cereals, wheat, barley, etc, which is
grown there by nature for food to
brain and nerve tissue. This is the
phosphate of potash, of which Grape
Nuts food contains large proportion.
In making this food all the food ele-
ments in the two cereals, wheat and
barley, are retained. That is why so
many heretofore nervous and rundown
people find in Grape-Nuts true nerve
and brain food.
81 can say that Grape-Nuts food has
done much for me as a nerve remover,
writes a Wis. bride:
"a few years ago, before my mar
rage, was a bookkeeper in large
frm. l became so nervous toward the
end Of each week that it seemed l
must give up my position, which l could
not afford to do.
Mother purchased some Grape-Nuts
and we found it not only delicious, but
I noticed from day to day that / was
improving until 1 finally realized 1 was
not nervous any more.
ST have recommended it to friends
as a brain and nerve food, never hav-
ing found its equal. 1 owe much to
Grape-Nuts, as it saved me from a
nervous collapse, and enabled me to
retain my position"
