lore. Sister Patrocinio has set convent OF nuns at
work over artlhciai MOWERS at MontmOrelcy. Ac-
tuahy. the spanish sisters would sit and moan all
day over the misfortunes OF Isabella II. OF Spain.
Iney could do nothing but dream OF their deserted
cl0lsters sigh for their grenade bushes within the
walls OF their garden. and pray-On, they would
pray I'LL they did not know they were doing SO.
Sister Patrocinio burst in grimly upon them
one day, and, standing upon a high stool.
asked them how long they meant to go
on offending the saints with their useless
sloth. She fold them how she had set whole con-
vent OF nuns IN her pamy days. at work selling eggs
ana churntng butter, and threatened them with
l9t or Roman bulls II they did not begin to keep
themselves by industry. One or them could speak
French ana make flowers; she was 10 teach the
Others and n when sister Patrocno came back again
they had not made something to sell for their daily
iood she would tell the Pope. They all set to work,
and the result Is that the artificial flowers these
Spanish nuns make surpass any yet seen. They
copy nature.
When sister PatrOcntO came back to MontmO-
rency the Queen OF Spain was with her, who bought
complete set for toilet. They were rose laurels.
The Empress next came, and she found the flowers
so perfect that she proposed every visitor should
pay a money forfeit II embarrassed to say at first
sight which the artificial and which the natural
hOwer soon as a natural and artihcial one were
placed side by side She said she would be the first
70 pay fine If they would let her try; consequently
the natural models and their limitations held up,
and the Empress paid end OF fines, for she always
mlstO0k the real for the unreal-0n purpose. Her
carriage wheeled away with her, full OF artificial
flowers, SO ladies will be walking parterres Tor some
time.

HORSE NOTES.

Among the incidents connected with the trotting
at Mystic Park last week was the nne trotng Of the
Bashaw stallion Danvers BOY. H is remarkable
fact, In connection with this horse that he should
have been bred and owned In the vicinity Of Mystic
Park and no one be aware Of his superior merits a.
trotter until the recent meeting there, when he
astonished everybody and rose to such high value
In public estimation that s2o 900 was unsuccessfuy
offered for him. The breeding Of this horse is one
of the few instances OF far-sighted dlscernment on
the part OF breeders, hrs owner several year. ago
having conceived the idea which he carried out sue
cessfuy. that cross Of Basnaw stations on East
ern mares by infusing into their progeny great con.
stitutonal vgor and lasting qualities, would pro-
duce trotting horses OF superior excellence
that would combine speed with stoutness, and do
cility with beauty OF appearance In pursuspop Of
