BEAUTIFYING
THE CITY

An hour or two work each day and
small investment in seeds, plants
trees and shrubs, and also a paint
brush and a few buckets of paint
would turn our yards and homes into
veritable glimpses of paradise, and II
all of us would do that the general
result would be positively startling in
its loneliness, and would prove a
most wonderful advertisement of the
town and community.
A few flowers set out In the front
yard and few vegetables in the back
yard, with vines climbing up over the
porch and around the outhouses: a
berry vine in the corners and here
and there pretty shrub or tree
makes all the difference in the world
in the appearance. and also enhances
the value of the property. as does
also. bit Of paint, which one can
spread on at odd hours.
Ladies'. this is matter wherein you
can be of the greatest help. as 1t is
all right In your line You are beau
tiful yourselves and should therefore
take lively interest In making the
city likewise.

STATION ETIQUETTE

TO SAY that the well-bred perssf

nigh, be unfair. But 1t Is q fact thu
well-bred person shows his consider
alton tor others In his actions. and
the person who comes into the station
runs into them with his travelling bag
summons porter CURLY and tries Ia
push ahead Of others at the ticket
window, Is acting In an inconsiderate
manner. He Is also making himself
conspicuous. and the well-bred per
son does not attract undue attention
to himself In public places.
II Is nothing to be ashamed Of II one
has travelled but little. and some ex-
cellent folk have perhaps never been
in a railroad train more than once or
twice In their lives. Still II ls but
natural that we should all want to
appear to be at ease when we travel.
and not TO proclaim by our manners
that We have never been about before.
Your conduct In the railroad station
should therefore be composed and I'M
rufiied. II you have time TO idle
away before train time 1t Is quite all
right to 20 to the newsstand and pur-
chase a paper or magazine and read
1t; but there Is no reason why you
should have to invest In chewing gum,
salted nuts and gum drops. weigh

chimes, pace back and forth In the sta
ton. delve In your travelling bag to see
whether you remembered to bring
your slippers, or ask the station at
tendants innumerable unnecessary
questions about why the train Is late.
II you have been unable to get any
lunch and really feel the need Of
nourlshment, then you may be excused
for eating little milk chocolate while
you wait, but remember that well-bred
people do not eat In any public places
save restaurants and other places, es.
peclally intended for that.
And the consensus of opinion seems
to be that the very well-bred people
do not kiss In the station. At any
rate. they do 1t without attracting any
undue attention, and save such signs
Of devotion till they have reached
home. To be sure, when We travel In
continental Europe we see much kiss

The American way as well as the Brit

sible of our own personal affairs to
others in the railway station. We
can excuse the woman who weeps
audibly In the station when she sees
her dear ones departing II she 10 old

young woman should do her utmost
to avoid such demonstration Of her

sCIENCE HAS OVERCOME
DREADED POTATO BUG
The Potato Magazine calls at
tention to the fact that certain
regions Of the upper peninsu!a
Of Michigan have been virtually
freed Of that notorious pest the
potato bug, by the operations OF
a tiny parasitic ny which lays
its eggs upon the striped beetle
Grubs Matched from these eggs
bore into The potato bugs booy
and eat out his inside works.
II It were not for parasites
that prey upon the potato bug.
It would scarce be possible to
grow any potatoes In this coun.
try, despite all the farmer could
do TO poison the insect with
paris green.
That destructive beetle was
originally native to mountain
districts Of Colorado. where II
fed on wild variety Of potato
plant called the sand bur-" II
IL supposed TO have been car
ried into Missouri by the cattle
traflic, and In 1854 It crossed the
Mississippi river. In the early
seventies 1t had crossed the De-
trOit river and Lake Erie was
literally alive with potato bugs,
passengers on ships or whatever
else would Keep them afioat.
They reached the Atlantic coast
In 1873, and the beaches were
soon swarming with them. Yes
sells we're boarded by them In
such numbers that matches had
to be battened down.
At that period and for some
time afterward much alarm was
felt lest the potato would DO
come an extinct vegetable In he
United States. But nature has
way OF dealing with such mis-
chiefs. and before long para
site enemies Of the beetle null
tiplied In such numbers as to
make possible its control.
The above mentioned fly.
which has done such good work
In Michigan. will be colonized In
other paris Of the country, and
may solve the potato bug prob
lem for good and all.-Philadel-

Just look at the way we are acting
right now. Many nations on the
verge of starvation; many more bank
rupt; drives for the destitute going
on constantly yet at the same time
the three greatest nations, including

with each other to build the biggest

WHAT'S YOUR
POLICY9

Are you doing business, or treating
the man who may be working for you
on the army and navy plan? By thai
we mean. II he offers a suggestion
about the business do you upbraid
him for 1t as though he dared to know
more than a superior officer? Or II
he tells someone else that he thinks
the business should be conducted in
a different way. do you call him ION
the carpet" for daring to criticise the
one in command?
As a general rule we find Winnie
mucca men who employ help are very
thoughtful of them. But occasionally
we hear Of a man who Is actually so
blind to his own interests as to re-
fuse to accept good suggestion from
an employe. He appears to feel that
II he did SO 1t would. In a way, show
that someone knew as much about the
business as he does. That hateful
thing called pride" is usually back
of this.
there Is still lot of truth In the old
statement that two heads are better
than one. And 1t is also very well to
try and be big enough to accept with
thanks a good suggestion from any
one. whether they work for you q
not, and to show that you know how
to appreciate the interest of anyone
who takes an interest in your busi-
ness affairs and your business. sue
cess.
The really big men of this country
today owe a large part of their sue
cess to suggestions and examples Sc
cured by others, which they were
smart enough to take up and use In
connection with their own ideas.

WE ARE But

Some day inventions relative to the
growing and making of food will
cause ten bushels to grow where only
one bushel grows now. and then there
will be enough for all and some to

which to buy food, nor will we steal
it, for 1t will be unnecessary Nobody
ever steals water out of the streams

is given all he wants to drink at any

is because there is plenty of it, and
when there is plenty of food 1t will
be the same way.
