Too Crowded to Be Seen.
Here is garden, an exhibition of
great scientific, educational and ro-
mantle interest-to say nothing of the
bits Of history entwined about many
of it's trees and plants-which is SO
filed with rare specimens that the
average visitor cannot see them be-
cause of the way one is hidden by the
other. Among the most beautiful Gre
atoms of nature, the poor stunted
trees and plants reach out toward the
skies for their place in the sum-
their share of the air, that they may
thrive and silently teach the lesson
of the beautiful.
Here is to be found, really living
and growing. q cedar Of Lebanon, such
as is spoken Of in the Bible, growing
and thriving only on one side because
It is crowded too much on the other.
Here also is to be found the euphorbia

pushing and struggling in their fights
for life and beauty. Exotics that have
been coaxed to fruit and flower in
their perfection in past years are
being persuaded to do so now, under
present conditions of congestion, only
by the hardest kind of labor on the
part of the gardeners.
In this beautiful garden, started by
George Washington, one meets people
from all over the United States, says
the Washington Star. A mecca for
school children, teachers, bridal cou-
pies and other tourists, as we'll as men
and women of purely scientific turn
of mind, each season that passes gives
it some new attraction, each year adds
to its collections.
Recently the garden has been par
ticularly enriched by the successful
growth and fruiting of the Carica pa
paya. under the loving care of the
superintendent, George w. Hess. This
papaya is something like the papaw
of the middle West, and is also known
as the melon papaws 1t is, however. a
tropical fruit, known in tropical coun-
tries as the melon zapote. 1t comes
from Mexico and Central America,
and the two young trees in the bo-
tanic garden bear witness to the fact
that the present occasion is the first
time the fruit has been produced in
Washington.
Superintendent Hess explained how
he happened to be able to produce the
fruit here.

The young man who stoutly main

IF EVERYONE KNOWS you.

To thine own self be true,
And II must follow as the night the day,
Thou canst not be false to anyone
To be well and favorably known in
a community is the greatest passport
to favor q young man can possess
The average person thinks it is the
easiest thing in the world for young
man of good looks and good manners
to select a sweetheart and WOO and
win her. Nothing is further from the
truth. The falling in love part is
easy enough-it is custom that goes
on exactly the same in all ages and all
time-but to become the lover of the
girl who has caught his fancy is
often a most difficult feat to accom-
plish.
The day of the foolish virgin is we'll
nigh past. Girls of today have hearts
just as tender. but they do not wear
them on their sleeves. They have
brains and weigh a man carefully in
the scale of judgment before they ad-
NIT him to their friendship, such as
exchanging bows or pleasant word
or two If they are brought into con-
tact. If a young man asks permission
to call, that is quite a different matter.
II he bears good name, is we'll
spoken of by his employer and asso-
ciates, he may be accorded the privi-
lege of spending an evening now and
then with the young lady he admires.
If, on the other hand, he bears a
reputation discreditable-such as as
sociating with undesirable young men
and girls far advanced on the down
war PATHS seen drinking, betting,
hobnobbing with corner loafers, is
heard to make insulting remarks
about women, the average father
would sooner see scorpion enter his
door than have such social leper
call on his innocent daughter.
1t is not true that this is mans
world" that he can go ever 80 far
along the road of folly and turn over
new leaf when the occasion suits
him, wed a pure, fair maiden and live
happily ever after. A man thoroughly
bad cannot treat the best women in
the world with deep and sincere re-
spect from the first to last during
courtship. No matter how carefully he
may be on his guard neither to do nor
say aught that might cause her dis
may, there is more than apt to be
some word carelessly spoken. which
will give thoughtful girl an insight
into his true character. If everyone
speaks i'll of a man, it should be de-
manded of him that he clear up such
imputations ere aspiring to the friend
ship let alone the love, of girl
worthy of a noble mate in marriage.
Let man give himself bad name
and it will cling to him tenaciously,
refusing to be shaken off or purged
away 1t is the most difficult thing
in the world to make youths believe
this or cause them to value an excel
lent reputation. When girl weds
an acknowledged scapegrace, whom
everyone knows to have all the faults
in the calendar, with the avowed pur-
pose of reforming him, she has given
herself gigantic, may say impos.
sible, task to accomplish. Where one
woman succeeds, million fail. There
is no process by which bad egg car
be made good again.

SALVATION ARMY NEEDS
CH|lDREN'S CLOTHING

As winter advances the demand for
children's clothing at the Salvation
Army far exceeds the supply and Capt
Murphy is facing a problem of how to
cope with the situation. A number Of
very needy cases has been brought to
the attention of the army officers.
In an endeavor to meet these de-
mands Capt. Murphy is asking the
people of the city to cooperate with
him to help alleviate the sufferings of
the children. Children's clothing of
all kinds will be acceptable. Clothing
of adults can also be utilized to ad-
vantage in making them over into
children's clothes.
Anyone wishing to donate articles
can communicate with Capt. Murphy
who will be glad to call for them.
