Perhaps the idea Of trees Of one va

eliminate all consideration of peach.

can see other than wisdom in the sug-

boy ever stole from the tree that hung
Its fruit invitingly over the ancient
worm fence?
Here is an opportunity for the pres
ent generation Of farmers everywhere
to do a bit of missionary work that
will cause the coming race to rise up
and call them blessed. They them
selves will live to enjoy the sweet
shadows of the trees. Every motor

along the bosky roads. The value Of
the farm lands adjoining will be en-

Profit In Paint.

II paint didn't do anything, but
make the family feel more cheerful
and give them pride and self
respect, it would really be worth all
1t costs, but in this day of high-priced
lumber and building material, paint
really pays two profits-pays one
profit in beauty and q second profit
in lumber and dollars saved. Back in
the day when the South was full of
magnificent timber and we didn't
think of trees at all except as some
thing nightly in the way when we
wanted to clear q new ground" back
in those days a man might have lived
in an implanted house and consoled
himself that he wasn't losing much
except cheer and beauty. But that
day has passed. It's true that paint
ing now pays its way besides adding
beauty. In other words, you can get
the fun and satisfaction and good
cheer that come from living in a house
that's painted-you get all this "free
gratis" as q sort of surplus by-product
of the good common sense business
deal that you make when you have
your house protected by paint.-Pro

Value Of Clean City.

Needlessly Alarmed.

A man who was stung by hornets
last summer, was awakened by n buzz,
Ing sound almost directly above him.
He ducked his head under the Gov

When he ventured an ear cut to
listen he heard the sound again, even
louder than before.
Again he ducked under the covers.
Then, realizing that he couldn't stay
in bed all day, he put his head out
from under the covers and yelled. This
was with the idea of soaring whatever
was buzzing.
He succeeded in that, but 1t wasn't

BERLIN OF THE EIGHTIES
Some Pleasant ReeoIleetions Of Der
Alte Kaiser and His Son
and Grandson.

At that time Berlin was much less
than half its present size, The popu-
lation was probably 100000, and as
there were some 10000 soldiers sta
toned in and about Berlin, n who
had never seen a military officer in
his life, except In a parade of the
militia on Decoration day, met these
gayly uniformed gentlemen at every
turn, in the streets, in the cafes, and
In all places of public resort, with no
little surprise. This experience Of it
self induced reflection. What were all
these officers and soldiers doing?
Why were they withdrawn from pro-
ductive industry? Why were they so
quickly deferred to by the civilian
population? Such questions as these
the young American asked, and he re-
ceived replies that revealed to him,
again for the first time, a different
view Of the state and Of government
to n that he had come in contact
with at home.
New and interesting experiences
awaited him at every turn, writes
President Nicholas Butler of Column
bia in Scribner'S. Emperor William
l, der alte kaiser, as he was affec-
tionately called by the p%opulace, was
to be seen every morning in the vim
dow of his working DON at the pal
ace, at the corner of what was then
called the Opera PlatZ. 1t was the
custom of his majesty to return by a
gracious gesture every greeting from
N who might pass his window, and
to rise in his place and formally salute
whenever a body of troops, however
small, passed by. The crown prince,
who was, after nearly a decade, tc
come to the throne for a few short
weeks as Emperor Friedrich III, was
the very ideal Of manly dignity and
beauty, and seemed to incarnate in his
W person the attributes and tradi-
tons of royalty. His eldest son, now
and for more than a quarter Of a GEN.
fury past the German emperor, was
an officer of the garrison. He was
frequently seen driving or riding about
the city, and came into familiar on
verse with a considerable group of
young men, among whom occasionally
an American student was included.
The daily sight of royalty and of the
imperial trappings and ceremonies
gave to the institution a reality that
it had never before had in the Amer
leans mind.

Safe Anesthesia.

Now that surgeons are in the habit
of removing the tonsils entirely, the
methods of anesthesia in vogue when
they were merely clipped have be.
come inadequate. For the operation
takes time, and the gas and oxygen
anesthesia does not last long enough
to permit of complete dissection OF
both tonsils.
DR.. j. Bloomfield, senior anesthetist
of st. Georges hospital, London,
writes in the Lancet that he has
found the best general method, both
for children and adults, consists in
giving a preliminary dose of atropine,
gradually producing a deep degree Of
Inconsistencies by a mixture of
chloroform and ether, supplemented in
some cases by a few minutes Of open
ether. This generally sufiices, he says,
and when 1t does not, he reapplies
ch%loroform from a junker's inhaler OF
an open mask.

TO EXTEND USE OF PARKS
Minneapolis Has Been Considering
Suggestions for Improving Reerea-
tlon System.

Minneapolis has been studying sug-
gestions for extending the use Of
parks. The subject was embodied In
a report by F. s. Staley of the bureau
Of municipal research Of the Civic and
Commerce association.
1.-THE conspicuous flaw" says the re-
port, "in the present recreation sys-
TEN is the inadequate provision for
active play of men and women more
than 20 years old. Children will come
to the Fairgrounds almost without in
vitation. 1t is more difficult to reach
adults, yet they need the outdoor life
quite as much as the children. The
park is a more logical center than
the school and park buildings can be
readily adapted to such purposes.
1.-THE park board should increase its
efforts to make the parks real competi-
tors. for the saloon, the commercial
dance hall and the movies. This will
Involve obtaining park areas adjacent
to the thickly populated districts, a
policy to which the board is al
ready committed"
The survey also urges a park to
care for the floating population.
Thousands of men temporarily out
of work." it reads, "spend their time
in the saloons and cheap lodging
houses, where they are permit
ted to sit down. This privilege is
denied them in Gateway park. Both
from the health and police standpoint
they are better off outdoors than in
cheap houses open to them"
Everyone who has visited Mime
apolis will remember beautiful Lake
Harriet and its park. 1t is surprising
then to e that this report advocates
publicity to advertise parks to the PEG.

Boil ten minutes, when skin may be

into the meat. Return to pan, using
half milk and half cream instead Of

The unserved fish may be separated
