Residence Burns.

The residence of Mrs. J. E. Hughes
on north Main street was totally de-
stroyed by fire at an early hour Sautr-
day morning. Nothing was saved from
the home but a few pieces of clothing
and the fire had gained such headway
before it was discovered that the oc-
cupants of the house barely had time
to escape the flames. The furniture
and household effects were an entire
loss, and Mr.. and Mrs. B. L. Mayes,
who were boarding there, had the mis-
fortune to lose an entire new set OF
furnishings and several valuables. The
loss is partially covered with $4,000 in
surance.

Why do people plant flowers in
beds? Everyone does il, and there is
hardly one in a hundred that knows
why they plant them in beds instead
of singly and scattered or some other
way. They do it because everybody
else does it.
Planting flowers is a good deal like
growing whiskers in some ways. Right
after the Civil war every man grew
a full beard. because so many of the
returning heroes had boards through
necessity that they made whiskers
fashionable.
That's why We plant flowers in beds,
Because the other fellow did, and still
does. But fortunately there are mighty
good underlying reasons for SO doing.
whether We understand them or not
In the first place. the herbaceous or
soft stemmed plants usually look bet

large or continuous mass of color
makes a strong impression upon the OBJ

would be ignored. A single soldier is
unpoticed, but the marching of a reg.
