How Old Is Punche

On landing at one of the sugar fac

trees with their wares before them. fruit

and calicoes in another, native woolen

there was also cattle fair. sheep, buff
faloes, camels and donkeys. There were
al fresco coffee stalls and booth, with
in which the sounds of very noisy music
could be heard. the drum predominating.
We entered. and were much amused on
finding that it was an Arab Punch and

tn. Ro.. Of sharon M. Rose.

The Rose OF Sharon Nnt = ROse.s
The anemone coronaria q commonly
grows wild about Smyrna and in Asia
Minor, spreading far and wide as the
most beautiful of spring blossoms, grow
ing on chalk soil along the edges of
shrubbery. We cannot wonder that it
was already in ancient times favorite
of the inhabitants and excited in poetic
minds sensations such as can only be ex-
cited by surprising beauty 4 am the
rose of Sharon and the lily of the val
leys," sings the first verse of the second
chapter of Solomon's song, and there can
be no doubt today what is.here meant by
the rose of Sharon.
1t was an American, Fiske P. Brewer,
who decided this question, Narcissus
Tazetta, which likewise grows in Pales-
tine, having previously been considered
the Biblical flower. This gentleman, ac-
cording to the Edinburgh Review of
1886, while travelling in the year 1859
from Jaffa to Ranleh came upon a place
where a considerable expanse of ground
was half covered with brilliant red
flowers. At the sight of them some of
his native companions Immediately ex-
claimed. Roses of Sharon" and when
he inquired about the name he was told
that the anemone was there universally
so called.
In truth it would not be easy other
wise to speal. of a rose in Palestine, for
native roses do not exist there-at least
not where they would justify the associ-
alton of the plain of Sharon with their
name. Wild roses are found in Pales-
tine only on Lebanon, or where, here
and there, R. centifolia is cultivated for
the production of altar, as in the Wadi-
el-Werd (Rose-valley), near Hebron

Bible often use the word rose where
there is no warrant for understanding
by it a true rose. The roses of Persia

SOUND ADVICE.

We like the ring of the Buffalo Express
in an article under date of May 9th
headed, HPut On Your Kicking Clothes -
The Express is a republican paper and
the advice is given to its own party but
there is no reason in the world why the
democratic party, should not consider
itself equally admonished. The farmers
movement is by no means so much an
endorsement of democracy as it is re-
buke of republicanism. If this move
ment has no other result than that OF
compelling the old parties to put forward
only their best men for office it will have
accomplished something that every
American citizen should be devoutly
thankful for. The Express says:
Last year proved very off year for
republican politicians. This year will
be more SO. 1t will be difficult work to
elect any republican candidates yet we
hear of the aspiration of a number of
party hacks" If these tender shoots
have not been killed by the prevailing
cold wave it should be the duty of the
Republican League and kindred organi-
cations and like minded individuals to
nip them off effectually. The way to do
this is to tell the party managers that
you will bolt the nominations of hacks
and then to be resolved to keep your
word. If you cannot find good candi-
dates in your own parry support the
nominees of the other party.

A Sure way of killing Owls.

Frost Bunker, of the Dead river re-
gion, is a guide who. it is said, is sue
cessful rival to James A. Smith. of Phil
ips-a Rangely guide-in story telling.
Frost is intimately acquainted with
John Smith," who is well known in all
parts of the country. He says he was
with John on hunting trip once on a
time. when they came upon man who
had fired at an owl Perched in big
tree) about dozen times without sue
cess. As they approached the stranger
offered John five dollar bill if he would
secure the owl. John cooked his rifle
and walked around the tree
The owl turned his head in the same
direction as far as John walked. John
kept on going around the tree, the owl
turning his head all the while. Just as
John completed the tenth circuit the
owls head was twisted off and he fell to
the ground dead. John said small owls
couldn't be killed that way because their
feet would fly up in turning. Phillips

salaries of Old English Actors.

Kean never spent more than two or
three Thousand pounds upon revival,
and this was considered marvellous in
those days -Messrs. Irving and Wilson
Barrett have more than doubled such
sums. Again, salaries were incompara-

who played second to Kean, received
only three pounds ten shillings a week
until, discovering that another actor ol
about equal position was in the receipt
of eight pounds, he threatened to break
his engagement unless his salsry was at
once doubled, request which was com
Piled with Now such an actor would

week. On the other hand, Kean raised
the ballet girls from shilling night,
