Saved His Smokes"

"Now, you fellows, help yourselves
to the cigars," cried Smith genially,
after dinner. "They are some my wife
gave me ON my birthday Gently but
firmly man after man vowed that ho
had sworn off smoking, FOR the dura-
ton of the war" and the dinner party
ended in a ghastly h2zle. Whatever
did you tell such hb about those
cigars for?" asked Mrs. Smith, in
angry surprise, when the guests had
departed you know perfectly we'll
that | gave you gloves for present."
"Oh, that's all right, Mary" replied
Smith blandly. That box of cigars
cost me eight dollars, and | can't af-
ford to give any of them away!'

ments have been arranged to take
place on the five public courses and
on the links of the various country
clubs. and in connection with the
recreation on the links there will be
given, after the games, various re-
ceptions, luncheons and dances at club
houses.
Discussing the forthcoming influx
of visitors, Mayor Thompson, who
has taken a lively interest in the af-
fairs that will mark the stay oe he
strangers within Chicago's gates,
said
"Whon I appeared before he repub
lican national convention ~ Wash

the republican convention were
awarded to Chicago we wOull enter.

fore undertaken by an American city.
Chicago is going to make good
convention week, and will keep every
promise made"

committee on organization of state
societies, has appointed a suh-com-

commended for that mental and phys
ical condition so characteristic of the
spring that makes you feel that you
are only half alive-that tired feel
ing that the patent medicine litera-
ture talks so knowingly about. And
it's this same tired feeling which the
patent medicine sellers have been so
successful in appealing to that makes
the spring time their golden harvest
time. Tonics and teas that our grand
mothers used to give for this condl-
ton. had at least one virtue-they
were harmless. The majority of the
cures that have replaced the herb
brew and the root tea contain either
alcohol or opiates, but probably their
worst fault is that they raise false
hopes, waste precious time and get
hard earned money all under false
claims.
"This cure has a number of features
and its most valuble perhaps, is eX-
ercise in the open air, and the time
spent in the sunshine. Then there's
garden sass which is the best of
spring tonics, especially when includ-
ed in the daily bill of fare. Early
spring greens and garden vegetables
and less of meats and heavy foods
will go a long way toward avoiding
Spring fever and that let-down feel
ing"

CHICAGO HAS
GREAT PARADE:
SATURDAY
THE PREPAREDNESS PARADE, IN
WHICH 10000 PERSONS WILL
TAKE PART, WILL BE ONE OF
EVENTS OF BIG WEEK.

Chicago, June 2.-Chicago's great
parade in the interest of prepared.
ness, which will take place on Sat
urday. June 3, will usher in seven
DAYS which, it is estimated. will make
Chicago the entertainer of the great
est crowd of visitors it has ever
taken care Of and which will fill
hotels and lodging houses as has not
been done since the worlds Colum-
bian exposition of 1898.
After the preparedness parade, i'm
which 100000 persons are expected
to take part, will come various con
ventons. on Monday, June ;, the
national convention of women suf-
fragists will meet for a three-day ses-
sion at the blackstone theatre, and
two days later the progressive ma
tional convention will meet at the
auditorium and the republican ma
tional convention at the Coliseum.
How to house all the visitors eN-
pected is a problem which has been
puZzling Mayor Thompsons enter
tainment committee of 200 citizens,
The committee has been busy super
vising the situation and has made
lists of hotels and private boarding
houses where the city's visitors may
be accommodated. Most of the down
town hotels already have disposed
of their quarters, and the smaller and
outlying hotels are being canvassed
also.
One large lake excursion steamer
will become temporary lodging
house and it is expected that many
Pullman cars will be drawn into ser
vice while the crowds fill the city
Two thousand citizens have offered
use of their automobiles for enter
tainment of Chcago's guests, and
many private homes will take care
of the city's visitors.
Mayor Thompson, personally in
charge of the general entertainment
plans, will assist his committee to
prepare a series of amusements
which include dances, theatre par
ties, automobile races, automobile
tours of the city and its environs
motor boat races, including an ex

DOGS AND SQUIRRELS.

city OF Kansas city, and their play

seeking whom they may devour or at
least to have fun with the little wood
folks.
At first the squirrels were greatly
disturbed by the terrible antics Of
Laddie and Brownie. In the midst
OF nut gathering they could not spare
time TO scramble clear to the tops Of
trees every time the two dogs came
along.
One day the dogs frightened a SPUR.
rel that had just found a nut With
the nut In his mouth Chatterer rushed
up tree and chung to one OF the lower
branches. LaddIe and Brownie stood
beneath and barked. In his rage Chat
terer opened his mouth to hurl invec-
lives at the dogs and the nut fell out
of his mouth.
II landed right on top Of Ladies'

followed. Laddle seized the nut be.

down and cracked Il.
Presently. when the dogs were bark.

A Farm That Walk.

The walking fern Is a native Of the
United States. II Is found In certain
localities Of the eastern states and
westward to Kansas. usually growing
on moss covered rocks. or near the
bases Of cliffs. The fronds. when
fully developed. are from six TO twelve
or fifteen inches long. their tips reach
Ing down into the moss or crevices OF
the rocks. where they develop young
plants Of two or three tiny fronds. At
a later stage. a mass Of fine rootlets
forms and holds the little rosettes In
position. After several months the
long frond to which the little plant Is
attached becomes withered. and the
young fern sends out fronds which pro-
duce new plants. II Is said than in a
few years a single plant under favor
able conditions will develop into q
whole colony.
