FOLIAGE OF BIG IMPORTANCE
Trees and Plants Breathe Through
Their Leaves and Therefore Should
Be Given Care.

The foliage Of tree. plant or vine
Is the important part Of all growing
vegetation. Trees and plants can
only be vigorous and healthy when
the foliage is healthy and vigorous.
Trees and plants breathe through
their leaves. They are the source
Of respiration. They take up carbo-
bonic gas which Is detrimental to
mankind and throw of oxygen which
Is necessary to human life.
The leaves OF trees and plants are
like the governors on an engine, they
control and regulate the entire ma.
chine. Fruits. flowers and vege-
tables can only reach perfection
through the aid Of healthy foliage.
Therefore. farmers In particular
should see to It that the foliage on
growing crops Is kept In proper con.
dition. This. however. applies to the
home garden In city or village a.
much rs II does to the farmer.

Warnings to the Liquor Trade
With the defeat in the house of the notorious
German bill and the passage in the senate of
the residence district ant-saloon measure, the
Illinois opponents of the liquor traffic have
ried to success their entire legislative program
for this session of the general assembly, with
the single exception of their county option" bill.
Moreover, the enactment which enables
the residents of any city block the majority of
whose area is occupied by dwellings to exclude
dramshops therefrom gives greater power of
repression of the liquor traffic than would the
proposed county option bill The latter would
have little or no chance of adoption in Cook
county, for example Under the former saloons
may be expelled from many parts of Chicago
where they exist.
AS for the German bill, it deserved defeat
its demerits 1t effort to reverse for
Illinois the historic American attitude toward
the liquor traffic and its regulation 1t sought to
convert personal privilege, subject to admins
trative control and to withdrawal for personal
misconduct, into something in the nature Of
vested property right which could not be taken
away without buying off its holders.
These incidents of Illinois legislation
tainly significant. They give the cleverest
sort of warning to all men engaged in any branch
Of the liquor trade that the balance of public
opinion is settling more against their
patton because of its abuses and of the social
evils which so often accompany its practice.
These new laws warnings to all men in the
liquor trade to mend the ways of their trade,
and that speedily, lest worse things befall them.
There many honest and honorable
in branch another of the liquor traffic
who trying to put it higher plane and
to expel from it the sordid scoundrels who have
brought it into increasing public odium They
should redouble their efforts ere it be too late.
For such success as their opponents achieving

STORIES FOR BEDTIME.
Peter Rabbit Almost Decides
to Return Home.
Wy Thornton W. Burgess.
Copyright, 1913. by j. G. Lloyd

In all his life Peter Rabbit had never
been SO disappointed. Here he was in the
Old Pasture, about which he had dream.
ed and thought so long, and In reaching
which he had had such q narrow escape
from Hooty the Owl, and yet he was un
happy. The fact Is Peter was more un.
happy than he could remember ever t.
have been before. Not only was he I'M
happy. but he was In great fear. Yes
sir Peter was in great fear. The wors,
OF 1t was he was in fear OF All enemy
who could go wherever he could go him

You see. 1t was this way: Peter had
expected to find some enemies in the Old
PASTURE He had felt quite sure that
nerce Old Mr.. GOshawk was to be watch
ed Tor. and perhaps Mr.. Redtail and one
or two others OF the Hawk family. He
knew that Granny and Reddy Fox had
hved there once upon a time and might
come back II things got too unpleasant
for them on the Green Meadows, now
that Old Man Coyote had made his home
there But Peter didn't worry about any
OF these dangers. He was used to them,
was Peter. He had been lodging them
ever since he could remember. A friendly
an old stone wall near was all that Peter
needed to feel perfectly safe from these.
But now he was in danger wherever he
went. for he had an enemy who could 60
wherever he could, and 1t seemed to Peter
that this enemy was following him all
the time. Who was it? Why, it was a
great. big old rabbit. with very short
temper. who, because he had lived there
for long time. felt that he owned the
Old Pasture and that Peter had no right
there.
Now. in spite of all his trouble. Peter

Mirrors and Their Use.

Mirrors. of course, are fundamentally
useful In showing those who look into
them whether their hats are on at the
proper angle Whether their cravats are
neatly adjusted, and sundry other things
Secondarily, they are useful for tncreas-
ing tie apparent size and the real light
ness OF the rooms where they hang. A
popular actress. who has home IN New
York city. has worked wonders by in
PRODUCING on all it's dark and cramped
walls mirrors to catch and reflect and
magnify such light as they receive. Her
idea Is not new. but it is well worked OUT
and it is worth following.
Always place a mirror in a dark hall.
If 1t can be SO placed that 1t renects the
opening into the living or drawing ioo,ll'

| 1t will not necessarily reflect the people
sitting about the fire. The object OF
| living room mirrors Is not to give refiec-
| tons of the persons in the room. and
such reflections are sometimes annoy1ns.
In bedrooms and dressing rooms mir

convenient, and especially desirable be-
cause 1t can be placed across q corner OF
