How Mlssourian Made His Home City Attractive The prairie town without trees Is shecrless and unattractive. Few tuluirs add more to the attractiveness or a town than rows of thrifty shade trees planted along Its Htreets. Village and towu Improvement socle tics and civic associations have done much to promote tree planting, espe cially hi the prairie regions of the mid dle west. Where trees adapted to lo cal conditions have been planted and where the cltlcns have cared for them aud taken an interest In them the re nulla have been remarkable. A public Mplrlted man residing In a city in Missouri bus beeu dolug com mendable work along this Hue In con nection with the Civic Improvement league of his city. In the year 1001 ho planted i larirM'io;iiJt; of seeds of va riolar tic-.-a lu uursery rows. Ho care fully tended the young seedlings and a feu yoara later dug them up, labeled them aud turned them over to the school children free upon condition tln'.t they should bo planted aud cared for. Since tho Uvea started life with the be ginning of the present century they were called "cuutury trees," nnd this gave tliL'iu additional interest. Each child was given printed direc tions, which wens hdaded us fo.lows: "Ornament your homes. I'laut cen tury trees, seedlings of 1001. They are living monuments;, watch them develop. They began with the century, .and tho century as It advauees marks the rec oid of their age yean by year." Those who received trees wero di rected to dig holes two feet lu diameter and one and a half feet deep. They wero told to koop the roots of the trees moist and covered until planted, tc see that all toru ends of roots were cut off smoothly aud to cut back tho side branches about a quarter or third of their length or. If the tree was a straight shoot without branches, to cut back tho tip u few inches. This prun ing was to balance the loss ot roots In digging up tho trees. In planting tho tree they wero told to spread the roots out Into natural position and to set tho trco about an Inch deeper In the ground than It stood In tho nursery; to use go.od rich soil, but to allow no fertilizer or mulch tc como into direct contact with the roots, to work the soil carefully about the roots and to water tho tree plentifully overy few days after It was set out and during tho dry weather of sum mer. Flvo or six thousand trees were given nway In this innnner. Two oi three trees were given to each child who asked for them, nnd nlmost overy child did so. There wero many spe cies, and naturally some died, but few children lost nil that they planted Each child who received trees was re quired to fill out' a slip giving his nnnio and address nnd the place whore the tree was planted. The trees In public places will be labeled when they have grown somewhat larger. The town Is now dotted with these little contnrv trees, whl'-h have heroine tho pride of those who planted them. BEAUTY'S BACKGROUND. Lady Auckland Has a New' Notion About House Furnishings. Lady Auckland, who hns opened an nntlquc furniture shop In London, has n theory that a woman's beauty de- ponds no more on her skin, hnir; bear ing or even drcR3 than It docs on her background, her surroundings. Sho must have her house furnished to match her complexion. "The paintings of the old masfers are tho best guide to artistic fumlshlug." says Lady Auckland. "They never made t';e mistake of picturing n wom an with a background that didn't suit her coloring. Most modern portrait palnter3 nre wise enough to consider the sitter's type when devising the background. In n portrait of a woman I know all tho settings are of soft brown velvcij and tawny furs. Just lighted by tho gleam of the gold chair sho sits In and of a tall copper vaso at her side. It brought out nnd yet harmonized with her eyes and hair. Yet that woman hns the 111 taste to havo her drawing rooms furnlihed In blue. They don't exactly quarrel with her coloring, but they make her Just commonplace. In tho picture she la dis tinguished simply localise, of those tawny browns about her. "The woman who has Titian fed hnlr must have a Tltlunesquo background of soft ruby and gold velvets. Tho pastel girl, with her pale golden hair nnd light blue eyes, would he-esthi-. gulnhed In a room of "wnrm colors, Set tings of pastel blues. pln!;s or greens. , on the contrary, bring ior out und make her lovely and alluring. It 19 perfectly marvelous that women don't consider their coloring more In finiiUh lng their houien. That's why ttnv new! beauty specialists to do It for them." "But what are people to do." jtslced a listener, "when there: are' dnushters who differ In their complexions? Shnir papa furnish the drawing rooms to suit the pastel daughter or tho Titian daughter? Shall ho buy draperies ti--'go with' the blond or the Immottor "That would lie n problem." rcptiod tho beauty specialist. EDUCATED THE PEOPLE. How Merchants of Some Wester Towns Held Trade. Thero are towns hi the western ngn cultural sections which a few years ago were getting only half the trade that was to bo had lu the district. Merchants became convinced that they wero weak somewhere. They fount that they were not advertising rightly and commenced a campaign which has resulted In driving tho catalogue houses out of business as far as those towns are concerned! Tho nowspapors of theso places tell of tho enterprise of the merchants. Tho morchniitsvthemHelven.wHl toll you that they do not' fear the mall order houses, as thoy have educated the peo ple to trade-at homo. The people who wore mall order house 'patrons will tell you thnt thoy know thrit they can do better by buylnjr at homo, that they aro convinced that their Interests are best protected by the home merchant and that since th'ey havo thrown ocf tho mall order habit tlfty aro savins more money. DESIGN FOtf DOOR PANEL. Mado oLace Braid on Net In Maria 1 Antoinette Effect Door panels or en it n Ins of lace add much to the attractive appearance o entrance doors, aiid, though tho Initial ttf cost of the lnce panels may lx MOtne wbnt nioi-e than silk curtains ot nUn liar sle. the purchase la Justiacd by the fact that tho lace will Ions outwear the cheeper material and. with ordi nary caio. will look well to thy end of Its existence. i , ,'t This large ob(ong panel w cosily made by n woman fond of fancV wort. FTQj PjJ Town Improvers. Tho citizen who speaks n good word for his town wherever ho goes. Tho good looking girl who carrier, herself well on the street. Tho mnrrled" woman who brings up a Rooseveltlan flock of flvo or sit to swell the population. Tho merchant who ndvertlses reg ularly In the home paper nnd thereby attracts trado to thp town. Tho clean swept sidewalk in front ot tho well dressed show window. Tho folks living next to tho railroad who keep their back yards neat and thus Improve tho railroad vlow, Tho farmer who sells his produce In tho town and buys things from the town stores Instead of sending to mail order houses. All these aro town Improvers. And there are othcrH. AM ODLONO rANEL. It measures twenty-six Inches tn hjrthi and Is Just half a yard wide, hot both length and width can Iw eoueklentbly Increased by letting tho not cxtomd for from six to eight or even ten lnchos all around beyond tho outside row of braid. The little lace roses and sprays of flowers and IcavcB may bo mado In the hand before being basted on tho pattern, right sldo down. After all tho braid Is carefully basted In plre tho net Is basted smoothly over the pat tern nnd sewed down to the braid Jtt as in tho well known Marie Antoinette work. Delineator. HEALTH AND BEAUTY. Preserving Split Trees. There havo been many Instances lu different towns of street .trees, long loft unpruned, splitting away In large divisions from tho trunk proper. Va rious devices havo boon used to remo dy tho trouble, hut wire wrapping and handing have been most common, Theso are, the poorest methods possi ble to use. says the Los Angeles Times. The parts should Ik pulled together and a bolt put through having n very largo head at one end nnd an equally large washer at tho other. Doth head and washer. should bo countersunk to tho wood, so that tho bark may grow ovor bead and bur and completely hldo the dlsnguremont. Such a meth od is safest aud best. A bIMous attack may Boon be over come by taking tho Juleo of ona or two lemons In a goblet before rotlrirvj and In tho morning beforo rtslna. Somo people wash their hair wttbtar soap after an egg shampoo hot t plain egg Is very cleansing and leaves tho hair much softer than If soap la used with it The white of an ogg wboa Im4m with milk and drunk night aad mess ing is of service in mild oouee ct Jmsv dlco. When boa ten with outfar wt very Uttlo water. It will make Mb ttnt stronger and clearer. To all suffering from rlngwocm risb tho part with vinegar that onions ba been pickled In. It has never failed to cure the worst cases, but must be rt bod with it several times a day, 'faut flavor of tho onion kills tlu uorw Tho particular woman never vaea a sachot of one odor, a Boap of another, a powder of a third, and bo ou. Wi either buys her Boanfl and powders osi scentod or else has them of the tvtM scent as her sachets und tterfwae. Thoro must bo no conflicting of odors. Enlnrgod pores very often need Inter nal treatment, as well as external, an they aro principally causod by ludhjae tion and constipation. Sip a glass at hot wator every morning beforo break fast and drink plenty of cold vaUx be tween meals, a little at a time. For ex ternal treatment apply this lotion with a piece of old linen or a bit of absorb ent cotton: One dram of boric actt, ur ounces of distilled witch baJteL r ifilsiil" ttkmitm' iffiin iii a i ' n i i m i
