from :Ill accounts To have been the
most stlpelldu,,s dwelling place ever
built for !; mortal n.Sn. Even il we
regard the ancient descriptions as
somewhat exaggerated it remains one
of ll.c largest royal houses ever built,

have been incomparably magnificent.

TO have been entirely within the walls.

tended !; mile in length and crossed

An Old History.

The Ladies Of the Improve
ant League, of this city, will
never forget the Fifth day of
May is "Dandelion Day." made
memorable by their liberality
in expenditure in trying to ex-
terminate the dandelions in the
city. The dandelion is both
healthy and prolific, and grows
without planting or cultivation,
and becomes very obnoxious to
the ladies who love the beauty
of the dainty flower of the gar
den and on their lawns, but it
is a notorious fact, that like an
unwelcome guest, the dandeloin
comes unbidden, at the wrong
time and place, and fourishes
best when neglected. 1t is the
first to appear in the spring,
and the last to wither and de-
cay in the fall, and like the
poor, 1--WE have them with us
always" 1t is said by some, in
the east, that this peculiar plant
is good as a diet, by others that
it possesses medicinal qualities,
while we of the west believe it
is Of the ID and ought to be
exterminated. Those who be-
]ieve ~ re any good in the
dandeiion ie- them come to Mis-
souri, Valley and supply them
selves without money and with
out price. We have enough to
supply the nation. It was this
common enemy that the Ladies
of the Improvement League
declared war, but they had not
estimated the number of the
enemy nor the financial cost of
the fight, and it soon became
evident that they, in their lib
erality, had offered too high a
bounty for volunteers, the re-
suit being that the young, old,
man and woman, lame and halt
rushed to the slaughter, and by
ten o'clock a. m., on May the
9Th, 1907 the Ladies Of the I'M
provement League, of this city
struck their colors and tDande-
lion Day" became immortal in
the history of Missouri Valley.

One Of the wonders Of the vegetable
kingdom is undoubtedly the candle
tree of Panama. known to botanists
as Parmentiera cerifera This tree
produces from its stem and older
branches a great profusion of yellow
lsh. cylindrical, smooth fruits, twelve
to eighteen inches long, which appear
exactly like wax candles. as the botan-
ical name implies. So close Is this
resemblance that travellers. seeing the
tree for the first time, are liable to be
temporarily puzzled as TO whether the
candles Of shops are made In factories
or grown on trees. The candle-like
fruits are suspended from the branches
and bare stem by short. slender stalks,
dangling In the air. aud readily give
the impression OF the chandleres shop.
As night falls and the numerous Dire
dies move among the fruit this impress
sion is intensified. The inexperienced
traveller is not infrequently Informed
that the firefiies perform the duty Of
lighting up these candles. at night
when light Is required by the denIzens
Of the Jungie-London Strand.

There was a poor old lady, fully
60 years of age, in the city this
morning, who Hooked as though pros
perity has not been forced upon her,
or that she was possessed with a large
number of close and intimate
frieneds. who strolled along the street
looking to and fro, and finally. be-
ing driven to so by hunger, went into
house which appealed itself to her
as a homelike one and where she
believed that she could get something
to eat. After rapping at the back
door she was confronted by the lady
of the house, who had frown which
might be termed as one of contempt,
asked what she wanted and after be-
ing informed that the old lady was
in hunger and wanted something to
eat of no matter what nature, she
was given to understand that there
was nothing for her at that place.
The aged lady turned and with
dropped head walked away. In the
meantime the lady of the house tel
ephoned for the sheriff 10 come to
her place of residence and get beg
gar woman who was trotting in the
neighborhood in quest of something
to eat and was bother. The, sheriff
through pity for the woman noti-
fed the police who went
to the wonlan's aid, and took her to
the Inn. and there was told that she
was waiting in the city to meet her
husband who was coming some time
today, she believed. Moral: Gray
hairs and age should command at
least a piece of bread from the door
of any home, and the thought OF the
mother and who knows that some day
ours may be in need of a bite OF
bread. and we would look with scorn

refuse her a bite from their table,
