pretty crocus is that with q yellow, blue
and purple stripe and can be planted three or
four bulbs to a four-inch pot. 1t is easily
brought into bloom but is seldom used as a
window plant.
Some of the tender bulbs are lovely for pot
plants Among them is the paper white narcis-
sus with Its beautiful pure, waxen white flag
rant blooms. Another pretty narcissus is the
poets cup" a pure white flower, inches in
diameter. with a yellow cup in the center,
edged with crimson. They are very inexpen-
sive much to their credit. The Bermuda or
Easter lily also blooms well in pots.
One OF the favorites of the season will doubt
less be the Chinese or sacred lily, or as it is
often called, the ''joss" flower, or Flower of
God" The Chinese have these flowers in
bloom at Christmas time and set them around
their joss as an offering. The bulbs are quite
large and set in bowls of water with enough
clean sand and pebbles, or even shells or tiny
rocks, to keep the bowl from tipping over.
When set in a window it will begin to grow,
and in two or three weeks will be in bloom.
Bulbs put out within the next week or 80 will
be in bloom by Christmas and afford beauti-
ful means for decoration.

The etiquette of the ''oyster shelf is slightly
different from that of the banquet table. There
is more freedom of action, less restraint, more
play for the appetite, less conversation. Every
man works out his own salvation, whether he
treads on some other fellows preserves or not
If he happen to have a peculiar, individual
manner OF eating raw such as holding it
in the air betwixt finger and thumb and then
letting the luscious morsel slip down his ali
mentary canal, there is no one mean enough to
hint that it Is at all outre In fact it is in exact
harmony with the tendencies. Every fellow
eats after his own fashion and to his own tune.
Somehow or other there is circumstance
about this 'oyster SHELF lunching that
leaves its imprint on man. His
legs naturally Irvine themselves
gracefully around the limbs of his high chair
and remain in the most uncomfortable positions
until the very last oyster has disappeared. The
habit shows itself elsewhere, for the confirmed
counter luncher always seems to be engaged in
strenuous effort to tie his heels together
wherever he sits. 1t is an unfortunate adjunct
to a very pleasant mode of lunching

ONE LANGUAGE OF THE SEA.

over the blue Of the bright starry sea
The signals are flashing on high,
Where worlds without number. like ships on tho
lea,
Are sailing all silently by
The lights, blue and red. with others so white,
Are streaming afar through the darkness of night.
Their language is one, for through many year,
Since the Chaldeans watched them of old,
I'LL now when the telescope brings them 80 near,
Not wreck on that sea has been told
For the signals that FASH of every bright hue
Through the depths of the heavens, are constant
and true.
In the ears of the dreamers long ages ago,
Soft music was heard from afar,
In the sphere where the waves of the Milky Way
flow,
Like the song of the first morning star
And the voices one, like tho lights the deep,
Where the stars, in their courses, the night
watches keep.
The speech of immortals, they tell us, is one
So unlike the language of earth.
All broken in fragments, its beauty undone,
By some jar in the day of its birth
But the tongue of the dwellers affair in the skies
Is one where the rhythm of life never dies.
The lightning that fell on the plain Of Shnar,
In confusion then scattered the race,
In stammering accents, all wandering afar,
Still yearning their birthright to trace
As the fragments still tell of the va So, what 1t
cost,
All languages tell of the one that was lost.
But again from their wanderngs the children will
come,
And speak the one language of Old,
In the day when they turn TO the Fathers dear
home,
Like sheen coming hack IN tho fold
And the signs of that union are thickenng apace
In the stir of the nations that Today may trace
o, sweet was the sign that at Pentecost came
The one language OF Canaan then given
In the air like the play of quvering flame,
In the soul the one spirit from Heaven
The tongue of the jew all may not have heard
Twas the unspoken language within them that
stirred.
How the voice of the sea may be one;
That the ships of the Deep like the stars far
away,
May be- safe till the voyage is done
For the path of the seas is q mightier road
Than the land where the nations for ages have
trod.
Let the lights as they fash, and the signals that
call,
For earth as for Heaven be one,
III shipwreck and strife no more sh all appall,
And LIES warfare for be done
And the sea will shout back to the land in that
day,
And the music of home begin sweetly toplay.
Then the ships that go by where the Pleiades
shine
Will call to the ships on the deep,
And the voices of both shall sweetly combine
The night-watch forever to keep
When the links that were broken on earth shall
be one,
Then the language of Heaven for man shall be
won.
To land moro blessed than that Of Shinar
This Congress-bright herald-has come
No Babel of discord TO build in the air,
But to learn the dear language Of home
Sure sign of the day when all strife shall be past
And immortals will speak the one language at
last.

features of the capital The daily habits OF the
people who make up large part OF the popuia-
ton tend in great measure to give the town an
imprint Of individuality that marks 1t out from
the ordinary run of communities And thus 1t
is that the business streets Of the city have
come to be filed with establishments called
into existence by the demands of this same pc
culiar class of people-the government clerks.
In no other city, perhaps is the day divided into
sections so peculiar-there is no noon-tide meal,
with its hot, smoking dishes and its atmosphere
of the necessity of getting back to work In an
hour; there are no pleasant evening teas or
suppers at 6 or by lamplight. where the cares
of the day are relaxed and all is comfort. No!
and the man from other parts of the country
signs as he thinks of ii. There are two square
meals and bite in every day, which comes in
one solid chunk of time, instead of being
divided by the walk home for dinner into two
parts. IL is the half hour recess given in the
departments for lunching that has done this,
and so Washington has come to be a town VI
hasty lunching, with a sort of touch-and-go
style about its midday meals that is very
economical as to time and rather disastrous as
to digestion.

THE DAIRY LUNCH.

Perhaps the most American Of all the lunch
rooms is that wherein milk is the principal
commodity, called, from this fact the dairy
lunch. These establishments are of recent
growth, having been started here about ten
years ago. They are now TO be found
on almost every business sireet-always
near department building. Here the GO
as-you-please idea is carried out rather
fully. A man first orders his milk, cream,
coffee or half-and-half. and then helps himself
to whatever he wants from a heaping stock of
toothsome goods on a counter.
Cream is Is cents a mug; it is rich thick.
delicious, but trifie too heavy for the stomachs
and the purses of the average customer. Milk
comes at a nickel a mug, and half-and- half at a
dime. Pie is cents a section, about as large
piece as any housewife ever gives her hus-
band there are all sorts of pies, apple, pump
kin. squash, sweet potatoe, mince, custard,
lemon, and, in season, berry pies of every
variety. Then there are cakes, large, round
cakes that go very. well with a mug of milk:
sandwiches, ham, cheese or tongue; crullers, or
doughnuts; two slabs of material with a custard
between, and small round biscuits, either but
tered or not. The general price is cents for
any article, except the doughnuts and the
biscuits; the former go at three for a nickel
and the latter at a cent apiece without butter,
and cents buttered.
