''thnt We had such scare about the Indians
IN this city twenty-six years ago, during tho
Indian troubles There was a good deal of
excitement all over the city for two or three
days. I remember one day an old coiored
woman came in great excitement to my
house and said she had heard the governor
had ordered the whole population to leave tho
city at once-the Indians were marching on
us, fully armed and thirsting for cur blood
She rushed away, saying she vas going to
pack up and leave. A German woman who
lived on the ether side of the block, and
whose lot WAS opposite mine, barricaded her
door with her bureau and bed, and got her

Vick's Magazine thinks that these grouped
together should be accepted as our national
1owers-"emblems of endurance, light and

try, our rural landscape is everywhere bright

distinct and beautiful feature of the scenery
The eyes of our countrymen are everywhere
gladdened by their smiles, north and south,
east and west, on the hills and the noun
tain sides, in the valleys and on the broad
prairies, by the roadsides and the streams,
and in the field and copses they stand as
tokens of the genial heat that brings from the
soil the golden grains and the beautiful, lus-
cious fruits No other country in the world
Is thus characterized; these plants belong to
America, and as such should be our pride
and delight.

to eight feet in height, all tine world besides
affords less than q dozen, and these for the
most part of small size and confined to few
localities of limited area, and always in such
small numbers as to make them rare plants.
The species OF asters in this country are still

Both are the children of the sun, basking in

apparently claim possession as these.-Home
