sEAuTlFYiNe HOME GROUNDS


Attractive grounds add more than
any other feature toward beautifying
the home, be 1t in the country or in
the city No farm or city home can
afford to be without few trees and
shrubs around the house. 1t seems
strange indeed with all our natural
advantages that ornamental planting
is not more observed by those who
wish to make life in the country
worth while Money expended in this
direction is we'll invested not only
from the fact of its creating pleasant
surroundings, but because the beau
tifying Of a place enhances its val
ue and renders it salable often at q
handsome profit. Then again on the
other hand, money cannot buy the
satisfaction that one derives from
watching the growth and develop
ment of ornamental vegetation.
Among the beautiful hardy shrubs
that require little attention wish to
enumerate few that should be
planted more extensively in our
state. These plants are easily OBJ
tainable and not expensive. The Al
thea or Rose of Sharon flowers free

BEST TIME OF THE YEAR TO
GET THE FLIES

A few flies live over winter. These
are the sluggish ones seen early in
the spring. The females are ready
to lay eggs and are seeking stored
stable manure. In a few days each
female that passed the winter will
be represented by two hundred fifty
to four hundred individuals. Thus
they will continue to multiply for the
rest of the summer. Thoroughly
spraying the manure with kerosene
will kill the eggs Of young maggots,
but will spoil the manure for fertiliz-
er. Spraying the manure with Paris
Green water Ia tablespoon to a buck
ct of water) will poison the maggots.
The best way is to haul the manure
to the open fields once each week,
and spread 1t out where 1t can dry.
The drying kills the maggots.
Flies will breed in outhouses and
garbage. These should be closed fly.

UNsTEADIED HIS NERVES.
Audacious Test of a Marksman's Skill
In Duel,

In Duel.
M. Colombey. in his history of duel
ing, tells an anecdote of certain
noted duelist of his time.
One day this man. Nj. D., was at
Desennes shooting gallery in Paris
watching the pistol practice. There
was one man who was shooting very
we'll and Desenne was threatened with
the loss of all his glass balls and
swinging dolls. Every shot was greet
ed by the spectators with exclama-
tons of admiration.
B. looked on for awhile, and finally,
in a calm voice, made the remark, HE
could not do as well on the field"
The object of the sighting remark
turned around. and in a loud and
angry tone cried: "Who are you to
say that? Would you like to test the
truth of your remark"
"Willingly." replied the unrecognized
dentist as he led the way out to a
secluded place. After taking their re.
spective positions. they drew lots, and
it fell to B. to shoot last He waited
in silence for his adversarys shot The
man tired-and missed.
B. lowered his pistol. what did
tell your" he said, with smile.
Then, putting his pistol in his pocket,
he walked away whisting.

Not Injurious When Used Moderately

In the light of the data that have
been accumulated in respect to the
physiological action of coffee it may
safely be affirmed that it is not In
furious when used moderately by rea-
sonably healthy people. With the
neuraSthenic and the dyspeptic 1t is a
somewhat different matter. While
alarming symptoms have followed the
ingestiOn of enormous quantities. there
is no evidence that fatally toxic effects
have ever ensued.
Coffee is mild stimulant, and the
effects are rather transient. The mod
crate use of coffee will not make a
well man sick. Such moderate use
will not occasion disagreeable symp-
toms in the healthy. such as insomnia.

An Arab HONEYMOON.

For seven days after the wedding
the Arab bride and bridegroom are
supposed not to leave their room. The
bride may see none of her own family
and only the women folk of her hus
band, who wait on her. She remains
in all her wedding finery and paint and
does absolutely nothing. The bride
groom generally slips out at night aft
er three days and sees a few friends
privately, but he persistently hides
from his wife's family, and should he
by accident meet his father-in-law be-
fore the seven days are over he turns
his back and draws his burnooSe. OF
haik, over his face. This is their view
of a honeymoon, and they grow as
weary of it as any European couple do

DAINTY TINY NESTS.
Those of the Humming Bird Are About
the Size of a Walnut.

The most exquisteIy dainty home
built by the bill and feet of birds is
that of the ruby thrOated humming
bird When completed it is scarcely
larger than an English walnut and is
usually saddled on small horizontal
limb of tree or shrub frequently
many feet from the ground.
This dainty domicile is composed al,
most entirely of soft plant fibers. frag-
ments of spiders webs sometimes be.
ing used to hold them in shape. The
sides are thickly studded with bits of
lichen. and practiced indeed is the eye
of the man who can distinguish 1t from
a knot on the limb. The eggs are the
size of quinine pills.
Although the humming birds nest is
exceedingly frail, there appears to be
nothing on record to show that any
great numbers of them come to grief
during the summer rains. 1t is, how,
ever, not called upon for long tenure
of occupancy. Within three weeks
after the two little white eggs are laid
the young have departed on their tiny
pinions. Craftsman.
