FLORAL DESIGN.

fLohAb DEo1uNs
1t is fascinating to watch the dexter
ity with which a skilled florist will
make up an artistic design, and to Sc.
1T grow from bare wire skeleton to G
thing of grace and beauty.
We give few ideas upon the max
ing of these designs which may be use
full to our readers:
For a table decoration, the founda
ton is an oblong wire frame some two
inches high and about ten by sixteen
inches in size. In the centre is a circle
or the reception Of moss which, aftel
being filed with sphagnum, is decorat'
ed with leaves.
This moss is found in swamps in
many of the States or can be obtained
very cheaply by florists in any large
town, as, also, the wire frames and
other materials for trimming. A very
handsome design was once made by an
ingenious person with no better ma
terials than pasteboard patterns, moss
es from the wood, a coil of wire and a
basket of wild ferns, flowers and
leaves.
The first circle of ferns was made by
clipping the leaves to length of about
uNS luCutS, lthNluS u Dhic StShi ioIiS
enough to insert firmly into the founda
ton. The centre of the circle is to be
filled with pansies; the oblong outside
with rosebuds and sweet peas, an
other row OF ferns and then a border
of white lilies interspersed with feath
cry sprays of maiden hair fern or any
light frond-like leaves.
A star filled with white rosebuds and
red carnations is very beautiful, {
circular centre of the white with the
points in red being most effective.
A star of flaming gladiolis is, also
remarkably attractive.
Asparagus tenuissimus Is fine fol
mixing and edging, as, also, the young
leaves of some species OF spirea. Ever
greens, such as arbor-vitae, may be
used in the absence of other leaves but
has a stiff look not 30 desirable a:
some lighter foliage.
Long stemmed flowers are easily In
serted in the moss but many flower,
have to be stemmed srtificially. Leave

WANTED-A THEATRE

The HERALD has learned that Mr..
Thistle is contemplating the altera-
ton Of his hall in the Thistle block so
that the entire second story will be
used as a theatre This would be, at
least, a philosophical move on his
plrt, and in all probability a paying
one. A theatre could be built there
with such stage accommodations and
auditorium capacity as would warrant
the coming thither Of the best stars
and companies on the road. Fairha ven
would give first-class entertainments
good patronage at reasonable intervals
If the people knew that there was a
stage upon which irst-class plays
could be presented in iirst-class style
by first-class companies, and such
organizations would be glad TO come
II they had stage facilities for doing
themselves credit and sufficient room
in the auditorium TO make ii possible
for remunerative attendances at rea-
sonable prices. Until we have such a
theatre in Fairhayen, the best com
panies will stay away, and so will the
people, except on extraordinary, loca
occasions, or a hard-wOrked event, such
as the Juch affair, which was at 81 a
seat. and a losing matter to the com
pany at that, while it was, to a consid
cradle extent, a piece Of vanity on Tho
part of Fairhavcn.
At present, the Thistle opera house
is simply a rather small hall, with q
little stage in it, albeit the stage is
the best APP ointed and easiest
working stage, Of It's kind. in the
state. And while Mr.. Thistle is to be
commended and applauded for giving
us the only attempt at theatre that
has ever been made here, he will be
far more successful in that direction,
and will give more satisfaction to
amusement companies, and audiences
as well as greater remuneration to
himself. If he will increase the capacity
of his stage and auditorium.

the statement that the old name of the
city Of London was written Lynden OF

An old tradition gives us to understand
that London was founded by Brute, 9
descendant of Eneas, and called New
Troy, or Troynovant, until the time OF
Lud, who surrounded the town with
walls and named it Caer-Lud, or Lud'f

People who have lived in cities where
marriage licenses are required often
have great difficulty in understanding
the system in vogue here. They cannot
realize that the services of a minister or
alderman are all that is necessary when
the parties have reached the proper age
A German whose knowledge Of the Eng
lish language is limited wished to get
married not long ago, and being under
the impression that a license was neces-
sary he started out to secure one. He
wandered around the postoffice and the
various municipal and county buildings
for an hour or two, unable to find the
place where licenses were to be had.
Finally he managed to explain to a
policeman that he wanted n license, al
though he was unable to make it clear
what kind of one he was after. The
officer directed him to the place where
dog licenses are issued, and the happy
sutton paid his fee and received the
precious paper.
That evening the German and his
blushing affianced went to the house OF
q minister to have the Gordian knot tied.
When the bridegroom proudly handed
over his dog license the worthy pastor
could hardly perform the ceremony fol
suppressed laughter. The couple, how.
ever, were none the less firmly married
because the paper allowed the husband
to keep dog instead of to wed wife,

Much of the sweets now in use, es-
pecially the syrups, are made from
glucose extracted from corn, and it
has been generally reported and be-
lieved that the repeal of the tariff on
sugar would break down the glucose
manufactures, but a well Informed
financial agent Of these works puts
new light on the subject and says:
THE price of sugar will not affect the
manufacture Of glucose. The major
ity Of uses TO which glucose is put can
not be filled by sugar; for example, the
toning down of cane syrups, the man
ufacture Of gum, candies, etc. The
reason for closing down is the present
high prices on corn, and Dis soon as it
becomes cheaper the work of our COM
pany will be resumed. Glucose is
higher now by twenty cents hundred
pounds than il was just before the
Mckinley bill went into operation;
| therefore, il will be seen that the
price Of sugar is Of no consequence in
fixing a scale Of prices of the various
grades of glucose"

A DANIEL COME TO JUDGMENT

Not long ago "A poor, hunted jew,
who had been driven from Russia by
the despotism and tyrrany that pre-
walls there against his race, was de-
MED entrance at New York city, much
as if he were a Chinaman coming to
these shores. Much of this sort OF
thing prevails nowadays, on the
wrong lines. There can be no ques-
ton as to the necessity for the restrlc-
ton Of immigration, but the policy To
be worked out in that way should not
be evolved and directed by immigrants
themselves as is largely being done
in these matters today, for 1t Is
mostly that element which has been
setting its face against immigration
to this country, curiOusly enough.
Moreover it is not the criminal and
vicious sort Of immigration that is
most violently opposed by the already
landed immigrants, and they are max
ing the fight on the alleged grounds
that there is too much competition in
the trades and general labor. Besides
some Of the already established immi-
grants are loud in the declaration
that it is no longer possible to take
foreigners and make good citizens OF
them.
Isn't this a brilliant commentary
upon our Christian civilization? 1t is
as much as to say: "We may send q
few select missionaries to foreign
countries with the hope of civilizinl
these people, but it is useless to brinl
them within the sound of our churcl
bells OF under the influence of our fire.

1t is not to be denied that the ma
ton needs to protect itself agains
conyicts, paupers and contract labo
ers, but no one ever seriously PR
tended that the large portion of I'll
immigrants were Of that class. III
feeling has been slowly gail
ing ground that our Amer
can institutions do not lift TO worth
citizenship the great mass of igno
ant and prejudiccd people whic
come to our shores. The difficult
seems to lie chiefly in the confusio
between citizenship and suffrage. A
ignorant English Jew or disease
, pauper Italian, or limited Germa
! peasant are not of the precise Qualit
we need to make our laws. But I'll
