BEAUTY GREAT CIVIC ASSET
Ugly or lll-Kept Houses Do Much TO
Retard the Development of
Any Community.

Morals, manners and taste are Inn
portant as truly as health. Houses
that are ugly, that tend to drive men
and women away from them instead Of
attracting them are, to say the least,
not making it easier to maintain good
homes. Houses that are ill-kept or run
down are setting a constant pattern of
shiftlessness and slovenliness before
the child. Monotonous rows of pine
boxes or even Of brick or concrete par
alIelepipeds are not adapted to culti-
yate taste for beautiful things nor to
supply the basis for the expression Of
Individuality And individuality Is
somehow a very real element not mel e.
ly in the attractiveness Of life, but in
the formation Of character and Of
family standards. Fortunate is the
small city or large town that has no
great amount of housing of this kind.
If communities set themselves the task
Of building schoolhouses that shall i'm
press good standards upon children
during five hours Of the day, can they
afford to take the risk Of having pat
terms Of hideousness or dilapidation be.

PRODUCING BERRY ,HoLLlES


The berry-producing hollies are d.
vided into two species-the Opaca and
the Aquifolium. The first thriyes along
the coast woodlands from New Eng
land down to New Jersey and as far
out as southern Missouri. The second
is a favorite of the English gardens,
and 1t finds Its best American devel-
opment along the Pacific coast. ~
Some Of the hollies are perfect, bear
ing both the male and female parts
the pistils and the stamens--while in
many trees only one element isspres-
ent. Most Of the trees that are avail
able do not have the double charac-
teristic and It is necessary to plant one
staminate tree among several pistil-
lates. The Aquifolium Is regarded as
the superior type where 1t can be
grown handily. sE

What Doctor Pierce Has
Done For Humanity!
BY DOCTOR CRIPPS.

r. 1t has always seemed to me that
DR.. Pierce, OF Buffalo, N. Y, should be
placed near the top when q list Of
Americas great benefactors is written.
He studied and conquered human dis
eases to degree that few realize.
Whenever he found remedy that over
came disease, he at once announced it
in the newspapers and told where it
could be bought at small price. He
did not follow the usual custom OF
keeping the ingredients secret, so that
the rich only could afford to buy the
medicine, but openly printed the name
of each root and herb he used. And
so to-day the names of DR.. Pierce and
his medicines are widely known, and
they stand for better health and better
citizenship. zg
One of this great physicians most
successful remedies is known as Doctor
Pierce's Pleasant Pellets. These are
little, sugar-coated pills, composed of
Mayapple, leaves Of aloe, root OF jalap-
things that Nature grows in the ground.
These Pellets are safe because they
move the bowels gently, leaving no bad
after effects, as so many pills do.
Very often they make person who
takes them feel like new man or
woman, for they cleanse the intestines
of hard, decayed and poisonous matter
that accumulates when one is costive.
If you are constipated, by all means
60 to your druggist and get some of
DR.. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets. They
may prove to be the very thing your
system requires to make you well and
happy.

He'd Forgotten.

rrhe school dramatic society was CIV
Ing its first performance OF the sea-
son and the play they had chosen for
the momentous occasion was Julius
Caesar" -4
All went smoothly till Caesars dead
body was brought in, and Mare Antony
had to deliver his famous speech.
& He put his heart into the part and
the audience felt acutely for the poor
citizens, who were all presumably hor-
ror-stricken and overcome with grief.
when Antony gently but firmly
grasped, as he thought, the face-cloth
and slowly, very slowly, began to draw
1t back. r. --s, .-.,s.
Just then an excited whisper came
from the other end Of the corpse:
"This end, yon idiot :" t'Ets
But Antony was too much wrapped
In grief to hear. He presevered ana
then suddenly disclosed to the intently
os zirg audience Caesars boots!

DRESSING THE TABLE

At all of the latest flower shows OF
the first magnitude prizes have been
awarded for the best dressed tables.
The idea Is to impress upon the public
the part that flowers and plants may
play In adding some psychological ef-
feet to the routine matter Of eating.
The most ordinary food, served with
some punishment Of flowers, takes on
an added zest and the big flower shows
have sought to develop taste and In
terest In making the table something
more than a place to put food. The
first prize table at one Of the most i'm.
portant shows had centerpiece OF
flowers, with individual stands for
each guest.
The harmony of the floral offerings
undoubtedly won the prize for the sue
cessful exhibitor.

MAKING THE BRIDES BOUQUET
By ELIZABETH VAN BENTHUYsEN

BY ELIZABETH VAN BENTHUYsEN
Many Of my readers who live far
from the big cities will be surprised to
learn that in New York city some OF
the big florists employ men whose sole
business In life is to make bouquets
for brides. e-..
There has been such an enormous In
crease In the national wealth and SO
much OF 1t had gravitated toward the
chief city of the land that 1t has to find
expression In many ways that would
never occur to the master Of a west
ern or southern farm. "E@
The underlying reason for the crea-
ton Of the new occupation Of making
special arrangements for the bridal
bouquet may probably be best ex-
planned by an incident that took place
III one OF the leading New York hotels.
A woman Of wealth and fashion had q
gown designed In Paris. 1t was all her
own. she was carefully arrayed for
her appearance In the dining room.
When Size reached the table sht
glanced across the room and spied nm
other woman wearing gown Of the
same moael.
The waman swept from the table In
haste.
where are you goingY" asked her
escort.
"To ch.nge this uniform" indignant
" replica the woman Of money.
That lIea is the underlying princi-
pie thar makes the specialist In bridal
bouquets possible. The rich and so
phisticared people Of society want
something different Whether 1t Is n
decoration for the table, the arrange
ment CT flower bed In the lawn, or
the planning of costume 1t wants
to hay, some distinctive feature that
others gave not previously used.
Z That is where the maker Of bridal
bouquers Shines alcn who have u
head fec such things study the shape,
the con position and the design OF each
wedding bouquet and then set their
heads 20 planning something of diff
ferent type for the next conner.
II il something like trying to eat a
quail day for thirty days. No man
can undertake such task and devote
much though to anything else In q
town wnere tie brides average ut least
/ one gay in the class where the cost
of flowers Is absolutely no considera-
ton II something novel can be pro-
duGed. ,s"..a.s~Fss''ss
Woe oatide the young man who
sends OH n bridal bouquet that one Of
the seasoned veterans of society can
recognize rs being like the one he saw
at q previous wedding. 1t must have
distinctica. 1t must be in class by
itself, and this demand has created a
field for men who can think and who
| devise novel arrangements Of flowers

peadlines in City Streets.

For the purpose Of trying out the
idea before adopting 1t generally, New
York city officials have laid white lines
of tile and marble, six inches wide, in
the pavement at certain street inter
sections to serve as headlines for We
hicles. Considerable trouble in con-
nection with the control of traffic by
the police has been experienced in try
ing to get motorists to stop at an i'm
aginary line. With broad, white
marking set in the pavement, there
can be no mistake as to where cars
should stop. Both tile and marble
have been used in making the trial
marks to ascertain which is the more
durable.-Popular Mechanics Maya

brides that marches each season
through the society columns Of New
York. .-..e

PUSCHkINIA LITTLE KNOWN

1t Is surprising how little known Is
the puschkinia among the bulb plants
that are worth while. 1t Is very
charming flower and Is worth place
in any garden. 1t Is one of the very
cheapest Of the bulb family. The
bulbs only cost about one cent each.
When once placed they produce beau
tiful spikes Of flowers each spring.
The spikes rarely grow more than half
Il dozen inches high, but each Of them
will produce from Is to. 80 flowers,
and they are lasting. The bulbs are
planted ut the same time and in the
same; way as other members of the
bulb tribe, being set about three inches
apart. ~...-.
