TIE MONTH OF ROSES.

TIE MONTH OF ROSES.
A moderate liking for roses as good things
in their place has been Justly considered one
of the results of home education which are
least open to objection. 1t is, however, by
no means general among persons who have
taken 50 prominent part in public life as
to have attracted the attention of history :;
andwho share with the black beetle a
positive distaste for the rose. The famous
Chevalier de Guise could not smell a rose
without feeling uncomfortable and Nenieri,
one Of the Doges Of Venice, suffered under
the same disqualification for the pursuits of
gardening Anne, of Austria, wife of Louis
Kill, could not even look at a rose in a
painting without being seized with tantrums.
Nevertheless. many people who are willing
as rule to take examples from the great
have persisted in entertaining friendly
sentiments towards this flower, and every
time that the spring and early summer bring
back the pretty vegetable they fall to telling
one another all they know about it. In the
East there is still belief that the first rose
was formed by Il tear OF the prophet Mahom-
ct, but nations OF more cool and disciplined
Imagination have sometimes admitted that
Us origin i 4Cst III ooScurl'y' hoses were
used very early IN history among Inc most
potent ingredients OF love philters. They
seem to have been imported by the Romans
from Egypt until the reign Of Domltian.

Marc Antony begged that Cleopatra would
/ cover his tomb with these flowers, and Inca
rosa was fayorite term OF endearment
among Roman lovers, as who should say
