Aye. strew their graves with flowers rare
And mark the hallowed spot
Where sleep our country's martyred dead
That we forget them not
Go bring from north. south, east and west
Those messengers Of love,
That to the earth's broad bosom cling,
Nursed by the Hand above.
Bring from yon towering, giddy heights
The flowers that tremble there,
And bring from out your hot-house walls
Those plants so rich and rare,
Go strew them on yon heroes graves.
With pride and sorrow true.
Can We do less for them, ask,
Who gave their lives for you?
When first our country called for aid
To some it called in vain
They answering cried: 1--WE come! we comet"
And in her cause were slain.
Then pick from woodland. rock and cliff,
From wayside, hill and plain,
Sweet emblems of unsullied love
AS tribute to our slain.
Go Gull the coltsfoot from the swamps
That justice may be done.
And let the famous laurel tell
The glory they have won.
The ever smiling buttercups
Their riches will proclaim;
The amaranth. unfuding, will
Immortalize their name.
Go search for cypress and for yew,
Which death and sorrow speak;
The heliotrope with purple leaves
Tells of devotion deep.
Brin: from the South the olive branch,
Bid war fore'er depart,
And let the balm Of Gilead heal
Each soldiers widows heart.
Bring forth the fragrant flowers of spring
Our native flowers of May,
And bring the live oak, bring sprig,
1t speaks OF Liberty.
The lilac, lily and the bay,
The rose and daisy red,
The locust and the asphodel,
Are emblems of our dead.
Select the myrtle and the pink,
The pansy and the sage,
To tell our love for them, inscribed
Upon affections page.
Each leaflet is tiny scroll,
With solemn truth impressed,
Which speaks Of sorrow, joy or love,
OF glory and Of death.
Then strew them DER our soldiers graves
| Mans ever dreaded goal,
| And let their never dying fame
| BE shrined within the soul.

A WONDERFUL PLANT.

The Sood Found In tho Craw OF q
A truly wonderful plant is at tho Alle-
gbany conservatory, says tho Pitts
burgh Chronicle. No ono knows to what
class it belongs or any thing about it.
1t is tho subject Of much speculation
among botanists, and they anxio usly
await tho development of u bud that is
forming. Then, rhcy say, they can place
the plant. The botanists have a sus.
picion that the plant is tropical one,
and Superintendent Hamilton is treat.
ing 1t on that supposition.
Tho history of tho plant so far as
known Is q unique one. During tho
summer ono Of q party of gunners
brought down a crane. 1t was beauti-
ful specimen and the taxidermist of tho
party set to work to mount it. In tho
birds craw woro found several seeds.
With Wow OF learning If the seed was
killed by tho bird eating it they were
paaced in water. In a few days tho seeds
sproutcd. They were planted in loan
and kept in warm room. Edward V.
McCandless took charge of It. Tho
plant was an object OF interest to Mr..
McCandless and his botanist friends and
its development was closely watched.
1t was transferred TO tho conservatory.
The leaves arc long and broad and
heavy, not unlik species Of palm,

Consumed In This Country.
"As near as VIC can got at it." said a
cigar dealer the other day to a repre-
sentative Of the Chicago Evening Jour
nal, 1--WE calculate that thero are thir-
teen million smokers in the United
States. We haven't been able to get it
down fne enough yet to estimate how
many OF these smoke cigars, what pro-
portion the pipe, or the number OF those
who inhale the delusivc cigarette, but
we can get pretty close to the number
who go in for imported cigars. And that
number surprised me when 1 figured it
out. Not ono person in Thousand
would bo able to guess anywhere near
1t, after knowing tho total number Of
smokers in the country. Now, out of
those thirteen million smokers how
many indulge in HavanasP"
about four million,"; replied the re-
porter.
That's the nearest to the number of
any guess I've had, and havo a stand
ing offer OF box of tho best Perfectos
to the man who guesses within half a
million of the actual figures. I'm sorry,
but near as you came you have not won
tho box. You're out of tho way, though,
only about four million in your rucss.
Now, then, if you'll tell me whether YOU
arc too high or too low I'll give you tho
Perfectos."
"Too low, of course"
"Exactly., That's what they all think.
I'm sorry, young man, but you don't get
the box. You're just S,034, 900 smokers
TOO nigh In your estimate. Hardly be-
lieve it, would you? Nobody would.
But it's so, and there's no getting
around 1T, Why, if there wore 1000, 900
consumers of Havana cigars in this
country, how often do you suppose each
ono would got a Havana to smoke? just
about three a month. That is, if all the
cigars imported from Cuba into tho Uni
TED States wcrc equally divided among
10000 smokers, each smoker would
nave twenty-hye cigars and piece O..
one. AT the outside, VIC take from Cuba
llO'OOo,OOO cigars q year. This is all
the demand calls for. Consequently, wc
smoke in round numbers $50, 900 of them
every day.
II think it is fair to give five cigars as
each smokers daily average. So we SEQ
by easy figuring that just &C. 900 pcrsous
are all that arc required to get away
with all tho imported cigars that the
United States consumes annually. As
tonishing, isn't 1t? Out of an army of
l3'o0O,OoO people in this country who
smoke, only GG,OOO indulge in tho luxury
OF imported cigars, hut that GG, 600. pay
not less than an average of one dollar
apiece every day for tho privilege, which
makes tho snug little sum of S22, OOO, 900
a year which goes UP in the fragrant
smoke of tho Havana in this great and
glorious land" lr
