Kept Boquets Under Water,


The following, taken from Wick s
Magazine for July. is a description of
the process by which bouquet of flow
ers may be preserved fresh for long
time:
A vessel of water is required the
vessel should be large enough TO allow
the submersion in it of plate or dish
holding the bouquet to be preserved,
and a bell glass to cover the bouquet.
The dish or plate should contain no
moss or other material; the water
should be limpid and quite pure.
Place the plate at the bottom of the
water. and on the plate, submerging it.
place the bouquet, which is maintained
in an upright position by weig hted
base previouly attached TO it. This
being done, the bouquet is covered
with a glass bell, the rim of which
ought to fit exactly to the flat part of
the plate the bell glass should be en-
tirely filled with water, and without
the least air bubble.
Then all are raised together, plate,
bouquet, and bell glass, filled with
water. and placed on table, carefully
wiping the exterior, but leaving on the
plate around the base of the bell glass,
little provision of water, which pre-
vents the entrance of air. The flowers
in this condition will he preserved in
all their fragrance for several weeks,
and their beauty is increased by a great
number Of bubbles of gas produced by
the respiration of the leaves, and
which attach themselves to the petals.
appearing like pearls. The edge Of
the plate and the water that it contains
should be concealed by light bed of
moss. in which are set some other
flowers. In the evening. by artificial
light, bouquet thus arranged pro-
duces charming effect.

COUNTRY LIFE AND WORK
Enpty Nests.

Empty Nests.
Last years nests hang empty In tn trees,
Their birds OF song have fown away;
Swift wings have crossed the sullen seas ~
There's silence in my home to-day.
The birds viii hit, and children roam,
And both forsake the mothers breast;
Through azure space, Ger ocean borne,
Their courses lie from east to west.
Nor God. ~ho gave the thistles wings.
The seed that seeks the desert sand,
Implanted In al living things
The will to rove by sea or land.
Go forth!'' is Natures stern decree.
But still In love and kindness given;
Whatc'er your pilgrimage may be
Obey and work-the will Of Heaven.

Bible Flowers.

| tb1OA0 x1OW0E0s
The .Jewish World" commenting
on the flora of the Holy Land, says:
The wild rose, varieties of free-grow-
ng lilies, sweet-smelling stocks, fine
odored mignonet, many colored crocus-
es, gorgeous anemones, the bridal fav-
orite myrtle, every species of gladiolus,
pungent narcissus, and the yellow and
white water-lillics have there their ma
tive habitat; they grow wild, and posi-
lively luxuriate in their freedom.
Where shall we find more deversi-
fed flora than upon our uncultivatei
prairies? The genera and species are
infinite, from the violet and wind-flower
to the stately helianthus and the sever
al classes of tail growing flowers. In
termediste, rearing their purple, and
crimson, and blue, and yellow, and
pure white spikes of blossoms, is an in
finite variety to delight the eye. An
| other feature of our prairie flower is
the changing color OF the different sea-
sons. 1t is today landscape of purple
color; anon it CLEANS with the shades
the golden spikes of autumn show that
the winter frosts and tho ''death of the
flowers" are near.
Those who have not sought for the
beautiful and delicate forms of our
prairie flowers little know what they
have lost.
The deep, dark soil. found untold ages
back at the bottom of seething waters
that in the progress of time became
shadows and marshes, left the riches
that in later days were to produce not
only the golden grain to feed the world
but the rich grasses that would make
fat millions of cattle to succeed the BIZ
son, elk and deer that had fed there
for countless ages, and as though to
guide the pioneer who was to carve
out homes there, nature overclapped
the verdure with beautiful flowers TO
attract the eye to the wealth lying be-
meath the soil.
The flowers have given place already
over a vast area to smiling fields of
golden harvests and pastures. fattcn-
ing thousands of herds Now the honey
bee sucks the sweets of garden flower
and busy hives of industry occupy the
sites of many fields that once waved
their floral treasures only in the sight
of wild beasts and wilder men. The
country that produces flowers is a land
of milk and honey. And no where in
the wide world is the wealth of agri-
cultural richness shown as in this new
| Palestine of the West.
The contemporary already quoted
states ''There is ample evidence to
show that the love of flowers was a
passion with the ancient Hebrews
There is no doubt of it and the love of
flowers has been no less passion with
all intelligent and cultivated peoples,
since the earth was made fit for man.

saved. 1t does not appear that she
was OF unsound mind except in this
particular direction. Unluckily the suit
was withdrawn, and We shall never know
whether court Of probate can be put

signs marrying foolishly it will GER
