Cherry Blossoms
The finest sight in and around Topeka is
the famous Cherry Orchard of Mr. Free
man Sardou in Oakland. Acre after acre of
Cherry trees are in bloom and the entire
farm looks like a carpet of " strewn white
flowers.
The Sardou cherries have a reputation
all over this section of the country for their
size and flavor and there is hardly a home
in Topeka that has not put up this fruit.
Easter Sunday the orchard will be at its
best and Mr. Sardou cordially invites every
Topekan to visit his orchard and . witness
one of the most pleasing sights possible to
see.
Oakland cars pass within one block of
the orchard. Ask the conductor to let you
off at Logan and Division streets, Oakland
and you are within sight of the orchard.

HOCH SENDS LETTER.
Tells the Purposes of HisyEducational
Conference.
I .
Governor Hoch. has sent out to the
regents and head officers of the three
state educational Institutions a letter
calling them tnto conference at To
peka on April 28. The letter Is as
follows:
"Last year I .called a meeting In my
office of the heads of boards of
managers of our two penal institu
tions to discuss the relations of these
Institutions to each other and to get
them Into closer co-operation and
greater harmony because they each
represent the penal policy of the state.
Last year, also, we inaugurated the
policy of periodical meetings partici
pated In by the managers of the nine
charitable institutions. The results of
these gatherings, both of penal and
charitable officials, seemed to Justify
the new policy and I think have been
exceedingly profitable to all who par
ticipated, and to the institutions they
represented.
"In pursance of this general policy
of unifying and harmonizinfe state in
stitutions I have now decided to ask
the managers of our three state
educational Institutions, the State uni
versity, the State Normal school and
the State Agricultural college, to meet
In my office on Tuesday, April 28, to
consider the whole question of the
relation of these three institutions to
each other and to a wise educational
policy.
"It has seemed to me that there
has been a tendency for these institu
tions to grow apart instead of grow
ing together. This is not said in
criticism of any one but it is simply
the frank statement of one interested
in all these great Institutions: I am
sure the managers of all these institu
tions have not only the good of their
respective institutions at heart, but
sincerely desire the good of all the
others. In this spirit I call them to
gether and in this spirit I have no
doubt they will all come to contribute
their best thought to the perfecting
of the educational system of which
we are so Justly proud.
"Trusting that you maynot fail to be
present on the date designated. I am,
cordially yours, E. W. HOCH."

A mother who is in good physical
condition transmits to her child the
blessing of a good constitution;
sickly, ailing mothers, the reverse.
The tiny babe brings to her a liv

too great care cannot be taken to
build up the mother's general con

system to a healthy, normal con

any woman can have in accomplish

LYDIA E. PIN KHAKI'S
VEGETABLE COMPOUND
Mrs. M. Gilmer, of West Union,
S. C, writes to Mrs. Pinkham,
Lynn, Mass.
" I was greatly run down in health,
suffering' from a weakness peculiar to
my sex. I began to take Lydia E.
Plnkham's Vegetable Compound, and
I was not only restored to health but
am the proud mother of a fine baby
girl. I wish every, sick and ailing
woman would give Lydia E. Pinkham'8
Vegetable Compound a trial."
Mrs. Paul Oliver, of St. Martin-
ville, La., writes to Mrs. Pinkham :
" For years I suffered from the worst
form of female troubles, and the doctor
said I could not get well without an
operation. Lydia E. Finkham's Vege
table Compound restored me to perfect
health, and I hare the sweetest little
baby girl. I will never . cease to
praise Lydia E. Pinkham's medicine."
FACTS FOR SICK WOMEN.
For thirty years Lydia E. Pink-
ham's Vegetable Compound, made
from roots and herbs, has been the
standard remedy for female ills,
and has positively cured thousands of
women who have been troubled with
the worst forms. Why don't you
try it?

CO-OPERATIVE FLAT.
To Be Built by Five Chicago Men at
Cost of $100,000.
Chicago, April 14. Five Chicago men,
having become tired of paying rent,
and desiring to live In apartments con
structed after their own Ideas, have
pooled their . money, and with $100,000
will erect an apartment building, In
which the plans of each one will be
carried out in the minutest detail.
This became known with the an
nouncement that plans for the erection
of the building In Cedar street between
the Lake Shore Drive and State street,
had been prepared.
Each of the five will own the flat
he occupies. Instead of paying rent
each will pay his share of the cost of
operating the buildinir. Including heat
ing, lighting and Janitor service, and
the wages of a valet in common, who
will be installed in a room on the first
floor.
The five, who are said to be the first
who ever have adopted this plan of
avoiding the payment of rent in an
apartment building, are James Petit,
J. B. Terbell, Benjamin Marshall, Chas.
E. ' Fox, and an official of the Rock
Island railroad.
Each apartment will contain 12 rooms.
A feature of the building, which will
be in the old colonial style of architec
ture, will be that the first floor will be
used as a garage, with room, for Ave
machines.
There also will be two elevators, and
another feature of interest will be a
room on the first floor occupied by a
valet for pressing clothes and other
work of a similar nature. Refrigerating
plants and other conveniences will be
In the building, which is expected to
be the most novel as well as elegant
of its kind in the city.,
