Advice About Reading.

Be sure. then, to read no, mean
books; shun the spawn of the press
in the gossip of the hour Do not read
what you shall learn, without asking,
in the street and the train. DR.. John
son said he always went into stately
shops" and good travellers stop at the
best hotels; for though they cost more
they do not cost much more, and
there is the good company and the
best information. In like manner the
scholar knows that the famous books
contain, first and last, the best
thoughts and facts. The three
practical rules, then, which 1 have to
offer are ID Never read any book
that is not a year old. (2) Never
read any but famed books. 60 New
er read any but what you like.-Emer-
son.

Mr.. James Stewart. local manager
for Ed. A. Seidewitz, florist, presented
the Keeper of the city cemetery, Mr.
John Taylor, with some beautiful flow
ers for decorating the cemetery at the
main entrance. Mr.. Taylor planted
these in the large urns either side of
the gate, and thought to add to the
beauty and attractiveness of Easter at
the cemetery, but the flowers were
stolen.
Some vandal actually pulled the flow
ers out of the urns, and took them
away root and branch. 1t required all
of Keeper Taylor's time and attention
yesterday to guard the cemetery and
prevent the graves being robbed of
flowers.

Farmers Suggestion.

Florida farmer who was raising
strawberries for the market sent a
shipment to New York and the com
mission merchant wrote back that the
berries we're too ripe, consequently
poor prices and small return checks,
so next time the grower picked them
earlier and the results were about the
same, as the New York man said they
We're too green for the market; so the
next shipment the man pulled up the
plants by the roots, packed them in
boxes and said, You can pick them
when just right for your particular
market"

IDEA WELL WORTH COPYING
Ruos Of coIored Rope, Popular In
France, inexpensive and
Peculiarly Pretty.

In Paris one lives out of doors 50
much that there are always new crea-
tions for the gardens and porches and
the many terraces in the country
where one finds the table set for a
meal.
Among these new things is q large
circular rug made in a simple design
Of colored rope.
The natural hempen color is used
for the border and the circular CEN
ter. and between are huge sailor knots
Of red or purple or blue rope. The ef
feet Is most attractive.
There is no reason why these rugs
cannot be copied by women who like
such things and know where to get
them done. Rope is easily bought and
easily dyed in the preferred colors,
and there are places In most towns
where sailorlike work is DONE
Remember, the rug is open in its de-
sign. 1t resembles a coil of rope and
loops such as one would see on the
dack Of yacht. 1t may have been
first used on someone's yacht and rap.

Both hands should be used. for In

Before putting the baby into the
