AID IN STUDY OF BOTANY
tablishmcnt of Special Garden
for the Purpose.

The especial necessity of a botan.
zeal garden must appeal to us all
Every one having a SO or 100-foot lot,
who is trying to establish a beautiful
home among us, must have wished at
some time to make this home attrac
tive by planting choice trees and
shrubs about it, and would like the
more beautiful, than the common ones
to be seen around him. Not however
having seen more than an occasional
tree in neighbours garden that he
particularly fancies, and having nc
means of learning the correct name
he must be content with what the
nurseryran chooses to offer him, and
If it sEc'-ld be some new and rare
variety, h is ignorant as to what size
it will attain, whether he will like the
flowers, what space it will require tC
fully develop its individual beauty
and under what conditions it will
flourish.
All these questions would be an.
swered by visit to a botanical gar
den, which would be a botanical die
tionary with the most exquisite and
truthful colored plates, colored by the
hand Of nature. A lettered board
would give the name family, species
and native home. We would learn
how very few of the thousands OF
beautiful things we here enjoy.-Los

MAKING THE CITY BEAUTIFUL
Some New Ideas That Have Eeen
Adopted by the Municipalities
of Europe.

| Furorean cities are discarding the
! checkerboard street plan, says the
New York World. Paris led the way
in Napoleon HIS time when T. ron
! Eaussmann. project of the line
build great. boulevards and avenues by
the hundred, laid out diagonal ave tues
! between important points and con-
structed engirdling bouleyards. The
sum of $240,000,000 was spent in this
work, and last year it was decided to
devote $175,000,0O0 more thereto.
London has done a similar but
smaller work to King's-Way. The
German cities are following neither
tFs G. eckerboard nor the radial ave-
nue., ring boulevard plan. Their new
streets wind perceptibly SO as to open
fresh vistat and permit of collateral
effects of parking and statuary.
Instead of locating their public
buildings at random, the capitals of
Europe arrange them with relation to
each other and to some park open
space or boulevard, so that they con-
tribute to one central effect. The fin.
est is the Ringstrasse of Vienne, and
other notable examples are Berlin's
Inter den Linden and Lustgarten,
Moscow Kremlin, Dresden's Twin
ger, the Louvre region of Paris and
the Grande Place of Brussels.
In Dresden citizens have undertake
en- to induce every landlord and ten
ant to decorate yards, buildings and
easements with plants, vines, shrubs
and window boxes. The authorities
have co-oHerated by decorating NUM-
cipal buildings, and at a small expen
diture the summer aspect of the city
has been transformed.
The color sense has been INDUCED
in all Russian cities. Building eX.
teriors are of plaster to protect the
brick from the frost, and every year
these are repaired and reprinted, and
red, blue, buff, green, white and gilt
diversified with mosaics are success.
fully employed.
Every important European city has
regulations restricting the height of
buildings, the width of balconies, the
projection of cornices, the size of win.
dows, and the character of lamps,
signs, awnings, fences and doorways.

These GentTemanIy Arabs.

The Arab vices and virtues (for they
have bOth) are drawn from the desert
They are the handsomest men in the
world, these Arabs; but they are not
the cleanest. In reverent demeanor
and tactful courtesy they surpass the
most cultured gentlemen Of Europe;
but they are notorious thieves.
Their hospitality is proverbial. For
three days the Arab host will protect
one who has eaten bread and sal, IN
his tent, even to dying in defen5 #
his guest. When the time limit o,
salt brotherhood has expired the h
will feel quite free to rob &he -
mer guest on his own account. Ordii
narily the Arab lives on Bread and
milk, or bread and cheese. If a guest
arrives he will insist upon slaughter
ing the choicest animal in his flock.
If there is no food at ALL as fre.
quently happens, the Arab starves for
awhile.-From THE Real Palestine OF
Today by Lewis CASTOR Leary.

Spell 1t "Vermont"

One of the best suggestions that has
come TO our attention of late with re-
gard to the booming of the state is that
everyone make a point always to spell
out the name, "Vermont" in writing it
and never use the abbreviation, "Vt."
1t is not long name, and is almost as
easy to spell it out as to abbreviate it.

HATS AND EFFICIENCY.

"Meta hats will be the cor

will resemble the warriors he'll

Press dispatch. A few weeks
ago | tried briefly to show the
injury done by the heavy, tight
fitting hats worn by most men,
preventing free circulation and
interfering with the nutrition Of
the brain, and suggested the
wearing Of light, easy fitting
hats, and the discarding of the
headgear as far as possible.
Now DR.. George w. Calvin,
founder of the emergency hos
pitaI of Boston, says, as reported
in a recent dispatch: "a consider
It a significant fact that more
college girls wear no hats at all
and only caps when the heather
demands a covering for the
head. Many women wonder why
they can do more work than
they could have done years ago.
They will find the reason In the
decrease in the size and weight
of hte hat" The only point in
which | wou' / disagree WA Or.
Calvin is in his saying that
weather demands covering
for the head" The hair is am
pie covering, If 1t has not been
lost chiefly through wearing a
hat. keep the feet warm and
the head cool" is good health

STRIKE VOTE NOT TAKEN;
TO WALK OUT LATER.
Three thousand garment work
ers employed by the B. Kuppen-.
heimer Tailoring Co. were pres
ent at mass meeting yesterday
to listen to the grievances that re-
suited in a strike of 500 cutters
and trimmers employed by that
company.
A strike vote, which had been
talked of, was not taken. 1t was
thought best for the tailors to re-
turn to work and continue agita-
ton for a general strike of all the
Kuppenheimer employees, the
Walkout to be ordered later in the
week.
So far the tailors have been
working on garments that were
handled by the men who struck
ana nave not MADE up any OF the
suits cut by the few strikebreak-
ers employed. When the work on
hand is cleared up they will prob
ably quit.
Intolerable sanitary conditions
and wages that drive men to des-
peration and women to lives of
shame were declared by several
speakers at the meeting to be the
portion of the Kuppenheifner en-
ployes. The average wage of $12, |
it was said, meant that many men
were getting as low as 81 and S. |
a week. Some of the garment
workers are employed but half
time.
