HINTS OX CITY BEAUTIFUL. Tere are a large somber of houses which are embellished by 4 the presence of flower boxes on 4 porch and window sill. When 4 well kept these are a source of 4 great beauty and add Infinitely 4 to the appearance of even the a beat kept houses and lawns. The color of the flowers adds 4 the necessary finish to the green 4 4 of the lawn. Much quiet pleasO ure ran be gained from the care 4 4 of these boxes and they are Inexpensive. A suitable box may 4 be made out of almost any kind of lumber and the green paint 4 4 necessary to cover two or three a boxes win cost very little. 4 4 The result Is altogether out 4 of proportion to the cost and 4 labor. Those people who have 4 4 become attached to their box planta ana look upon their care 4 4 as a regular duty would not 4 4 now be without them. If every 4 house had a number of these on 4 porch and window sill the city would be ITea 1 1 y Improved and benefited In appearance. 4 Unfortunately the soil with a which the city is naturally en- 4 dowed Is not naturally suitable 4 for the cultivation of garden 4 flowers, but enough loam and rich soli may be obtained very easily for the few boxes aeedea to embellish the house. The man or woman who he- 4 comes a lover of flowers and 4 cultivates the box plant habit never forsakes It. It would be 4 well wexa every householder f Imbued with It. " 4 and EJith Shearer In East Sibley street. The party was postponed on account of the Epwort'h League outing at Lake Front Park and announcement has not been made for the next meeting. A DAY'S MEXt.

THE LAWN FETE. Through an oversight the copy containing an account of the lawn fete was lost and The Times for once was late in recording a good thing. The ladies of the Congregational church were very successful with their lawn party on Wednesday evening and probably netted over J30. They are using this money for the purpose of decorating the church and propose to have a number of these affairs during the summer. The affair of Wednesday evening was held on the lawn of the home of Mrs. H. W. Haskell, and was attended by a large number of people. Refreshments were dispensed and the gentlemen permitted to make themselves thoroughly at home by smoking. Among those who bore the brunt of the task of preparing the fete were Mrs. O. C. Wicks, Mrs. Hooper and Mrs. Haskell. These ladies were admirably assisted by the Misses Ethel Prydale, Ellen O'Brien, Blanche Jillson, lone Carpenter, Helen Stratton and Marion Maxon. POSTPONED. Owing to the non-arrival of the nets ordered for their picnic the high school girls who were to have gone away to day for a camping trip under the leadersnip oi .vhfs fieien iionfcn ana .miss Reece will have to wait for a day or two, probably, before they will be enabled to get away.

SUCH A TIME. That you can have as good a time close at home as you can far away was demonstrated by the picnic of the young people's classes of the First Presbyterian church last evening. The party proceeded to a spot chosen in the new sub-division of the Gary Land company less than 200 yards from Fillmore street, where several large oak trees and any number of saplings made the spot as woody in the gloom as though it were many miles away from civilization. A huge fire had been prepared and the match applied upon the arrival of the party. Japanese lanterns were strung about the trees and tied to the lower branches and made an exceedingly pretty apparance. The fire blazed to a height that made it observable to late comers, of whom there were many. After it had burned down, somewhat, toasting forks of long branches were fashioned and boys and girls treated by their friends to the delicious opportunity of taking a marshmallow red-hot from the end of. the improvised forks with one's lips.. Weiners, vulgarly termed "hot dogs," too, were in evidence. Some of these were toasted whole, but the favorite and most popular method was that of splitting the weiner and laying it on red-hot pieces of wood. Given a weiner cooked thus, just a dash of mustard, a slice of bread, and darkness enough to prevent one seeing the dust and ashes upon the weiner, and what more could one ask from the epicurean standpoint, a number of round games were played and the ample lunches brought by the girls discussed in groups. The young people all mixed well, and much fun was obtained from the task of getting home through the woods in the darkness. WILL LEAVE SATURDAY. Carroll R. Woods, formerly with The Times at Gary, was in the city last night for a short visit. Mr. Woods leaves on Saturday for the west, where he will remain until fall, when he will enter the University of Washington. MEX'S CI.rB ESTERTAIXED.
