FASHION IN GARDENING,

To many people the main thing this month
10 not the struggle Of parties or the opening
of Parliament, but the beginning Of the
sweet-pea season. Ten years ago the sweet
pea was one Of the most modest ornaments Of
cottage gardens, and was looked upon by
serious hortioulturists with Indifference. All
that has been changed. To-day The sweet
pea riyale the rose IL popularity. There are
sweet-pea clubs, gweet-pea societies, sweet
pea exhibitions, and an extensive literature
devoted solely to this one flower. The va
rieties have been improved and increased,
notably by the English grower, Mr.. Henry
Eckford. and by some Californian experts,
until the variety of lis colours and the size
and richness of its blooms have been multi
piled manifold. The hobby is very IneIpen-
sive. A working man, whose outlay on his
garden is limited to q few shillings q year.
can do practically as well as the man with
half o dozen gardeners. Some Of the new
est varieties, it is true, are sold for the first
season at one shilling q seed, or even more,
but in the following year thay nre within the
reach of everyone. There are hundreds of
firms throughout the land that during the
spring months spend scores OF thousands OF
pounds in advertising this one plant. Sub
urban and cottage gardening have within
our time undergone a considerable change.
The old, costly, and troublesome plan OF
using bedding-out plants is now regarded as
somewhat Philistine and out Of date. Popu-
lar taste has gone back to the old hardy her
baceous plants-the peony, phIox, pyrethrum
delphinium, ,,helianthus, the MlchaeImaB daisy,
and the hardy chrysanthemum, The cost OF
maintaining an artistic and agreeable garden
has been reduced to a fraction OF what 1t
once was, and the pleasure and picturesque

ENLARGE FIRST M. E.
Church to Have a 100000 Addition at
Once.

The First NJ. e. church will have
100000 addition. This was decided
at a meeting of the board of trustees
of the church held last night.
This addition will enlarge the Sun
day school accommodations of the
church and will be a continuation of
the west wing of the church edifice.
The material used will be stone in
conformity to that in the main body of
the church, although no definite plans
have as yet been adopted.
A decided increase in the member
ship of the Sunday school has made
an ADDITION necessary, and then the
day is past when a church feels that
conditions are ideal when a score of
classes or more are held in one room
and everybody has to shout at the
top of his voice to make the person
next to him hear what he is trying
to say.
Work on the addition will be started
as soon as the necessary funds have
been procured, and steps towards this
end will be taken Immediately All
arrangements will be left in the hands
OF two committees, one of which will
see to it that the plans are drawn UP
TO suit everybody concerned, and the
otner to look after the financing of
the proposition.
DR.. Frank /. Loveland. the new pas
tor or the church will appoint the
members of the committees, five in
the former and 81 in the latter.
DR.. Loveland has a large congrega-
ton with between twelve and fifteen
hundred members. and he has proven
to be a most enthusiastic and ener-
getic leader, so the new addition seems
assured
Subscription lists will be drawn UP
by the committee on ways and means.
and it is likely that the payment of
the pledges will be made quarterly.
A week ago a combined meeting
of members of the board of trustees,
the Sunday school, and Brotherhood
organization was held and the hearty
support of these organizations was
pledged providing it was definitely de-
clded to build at the meeting held
Monday night.
1t is not the idea to bulls the addi-
ton exclusively for the use of the
members of the Sunday school. It will
also serve as a meeting place of the
various societies of the church, the
Epworth League and Baraca classes
for example.
For many months the members of
the congregation and board of trustees
have had in mind this Improvement,
and meetings have been held from
time to time to discuss the question of
building, but not until now has any
definite action been taken

THIS IS The time.
Opportunity to Vote on Fair Improve
ments Important.

THE voters of Shawnee county at
the present time are very much in
terested and i'll favor this method of
establishing in their midst a large
agricultural convention that will be a
permanent benefit" said Secretary
H. L. Cook of the state fair in a let
ter addressed to ]. W. Going, president
of the fair association. Cook had spe-
ciaf reference to the question of the
voting of $4,000 in bonds for fair
purposes.
Il trust you Will make an effort
to get this properly before the people,
as 1 deem it a great opportunity for
Shawnee county and the city of To-
peka to now solve the question of a
state fair for all time.
'I am persuaded that the great OPP
portunity now offered for a success in
this matter should be appreciated by
the people of Topeka and of this por-
ton of Kansas. The only question
we need to consider now for the next
years fair is the problem of housing
the exhibit that will naturally come to
US through the advertisement that we
have given ourselves this year"
Secretary Cook has left for a short
trip on personal business.

LIGHTS TO GUIDE.
Christian Congregations in Topeka Will
Be Directed by Myriad Lights.

Every avenue, every building, every
nook and corner where the great
throng OF Christian delegates will go
While in Topeka, has been well sun
Piled with electric lights. The regis
tration rooms on the first floor of the
state capitol, the exhibit booths in the
basement, the Auditorium and the
streets and avenues leading to the
meeting places have been converted
into bowers of brilliancy.
For the first time since the Audi
torium was built have the lights in the
mammoth sunflower in the dome of
the Auditorium been renewed said
II: B. Howard of the Howard Electric
Supply company, the firm doing the
special work for the big gathering
Every petal of the big flower will
stand out bright giving double the
illumination which has been furnished
by the big light The electrical work
in the Christian church where the
sessions of the convention are being
held is a commendable piece of work
also done by the Howard company.
