Walking Clubs.

How can nature take care of us if we
never go to see her? She cannot; that is
plain. 1t is thought that is at last be-
ginning to parcolate the brains of many
town people. We live and thrive by the
WORKINGS of nature within us. Unless
we go out now and then to sojourn be-
meath the sun and sky, and to be in touch
with mother earth herself, we can have
no long continued well being of soul or
body.
Mindful of this, city and town people
are forming walking clubs. They take
what they call cross country walks. A
party of pleasant acquaintances, whose
days are doomed to be spent behind
desks and within walls, meet at an early
hour of the morning at designated spot
and take train to station few miles
beyond city pavements There they
leave the cars and start on their walk.
It is anywhere from ten to twenty miles
long. Dinner is taken at some pretty
rustic inn, where cream, fresh eggs and
milk are plentiful. Sometimes a lunch
is carried along. In every case the cross
country walkers provide abundantly for
inward refreshments. -
Men and women both go in the walk
ing parties sometimes, though often
each sex tries it alone. Sundays and
holidays are chosen for the walks usu-
ally. The route is selected beforehand,
sometimes on level roads, again in q
billy country. The walkers gain q
knowledge of scenery and landscape,
and health, gracefulness and good looks
besides,

The Flower of Autumn.

Thanksgiving tables will be adorned
with the last flower that blooms out
doors in northern gardens, the crown of
the fall season, the splendid chrysan-
themum. The name signifies "gold
flower" and it fits well the queen of
autumn flowers.
The annual chrysanthemum shows in
all our large cities have become import
ant events. They draw statesmen, poets,
