It Means Cleanliness. Good Health,
and tl?e Civic Spirit.
Great Is the virtue of the back
yard gardjen. It la pleasant to note'
"tfiat there have been more gardens
In the back yards of Duluth this year
than there have ever been before, and
it is to be hoped that another year
will see twice as many. Without a
garden, the back yard Is a problem.
Waste and dirt accumulate there with
< a rapidity that passes understanding.
Eternal vigilance Is the price of a
clean ba,ck yard, and as the back yard
can't be seen from the street, as a
rule, the tendency in too many cases
is to let the debris accumulate until
the health officer Is attracted to it bF
Its shocking perfume.
But-wllh a garden taking up all of
the hitherto waste spaco. the problem
is solved. The m&ir who starts a gar
den and gets Interested In it is^t go
ing to let tin cans i^id paper and
ashes accumulate In It. HtTwlll watch
for debris as carefully as he watches
for weeds;- and before he knows 1t he
"has a profitable and pleasantly pro
ductive garden and a clean and Bignt
ly back yard. There is health In It,
! civic spirit In It. profit* in It.
There is health because working In
the garden brings healing contact
1 with the 'glorious outdoor air; be
cause the exercise is wholesome and
[heauthful, even if It does bring many
a. backache at first; and because the
earth, to those who till It and come
close to its bosom, seems to give forth
some mysterious essence of life that
makes those who work in it as sturdy
as the vegetables whose, roots tap-Jx*
fruitful soil. _"V
There is a civic spirit in it because
I it does away with the unclean back
(yard; because it turns waste places
into places of comeliness; and be
cause it helps solve the problem of
cheap living. There~i<" profit In It
for these reasons, and for others: be
cause it helps to furnish the table;
because it pays big dividends upon
the investment of time and labor; be
cause it feeds the household at the
growetls cost when without the back

VALUABLE SILVER DOLLAR.
Custom decrees that a gold coin, or
at the very least silver, shall be put
under the mainmast of each new ship
launched. The coin bears the date
of the year -when the vofesel Is com
[ pleted, a fact well known to collect
ors. who keep an eye on ships that
are likely to be the depository of
numismatic prizes.
At Liverpool some years bar!?, a
derelict Yankee schooner was- bought
for a song, yielding an 1S04 . dollar,
the rarest and most eagerly sought
after of all the American coins. It
sold readjly for l,r>00 pounds i$7,
500 ar.d would be worth today dou
ble that sum at least, for It was In

Jlmmle saw his father coming from
the elevated station, two blocks away,
fiVthe same time. "
"There's daddy now! " he -exclaim
ed, slipping from his mother's hand.
He ran joyfully forward In front or

ArfhuFArkley, stopped his trafrT He
ran back to pick up the child, but the
mother already had 1t in htfr arms.
She was crazed for the .moment by
shock and grief.
"Oh. look at my little Jlmmle
asleep! "-she cried to th?* crowd abour
her. "Isn't he a bfriutiful child?
Please don't wake him ,up."
The father, half crazfd with grief
