Flowers.

Flowers seem intended for the solace of ordinary humanity; children love them; quiet, tender, contented ordin- ary people love them as they grow; luxurious and disorderly people re- ioice in them gathered. They arc the cottager's treasure; and in the crowd ed town, mark as with little broken fragment of rainbow, the windows of the worker in whose heart rests the covenant of peace, Passionate or re- ligious minds contemplate them with fond, feverish intensity; the affection is seen severely calm in the works of many religious painters, and mixed with more open and true country sen timents in those of our own pre-Ra- rhaelites. To the child and the girl, the peasant and the manufacturing operatives, to thegrisette and the nun, the lover and the monk, they ara precious always.-John Ruskin.

New Varieties of Oranges.

It seems strange sometimes to meet people vino believe that the world has reached it's highest state of develop ment The trouble with such people IS that they are not capable of com pretending anything greater. The Riverside Phoenix seems to stand in this light regarding the orange indus try when 1t advises its readers not to experiment with new varieties of oranges, claiming that the varieties now grown will be hard to improve up on and that they had better leave we'll enough alone. Such advice hundred years ago might have been more ex- cusable, but in this age when horticul- ture is making such gigantic strides, 1t borders upon the absurd. Even while the article referred to was Delng writ ten, a new variety of orange came to the surface, the ''Joppa," which bids fair to soon supplant some ot our standard sorts. In ten years nearly all of our orchards may be rebudded to more delicious and profitable sorts and the time will probably come when we will have oranges ripening every month in the year. True hortieul- turists believe in the possibilities of a kindly nature, place no limit upon the future excellence of varieties of fruit. In planting orange-groves or decidu- ous orchards, few standard sorts should be chosen, but at the same time a little not so well known. Hor- ticulture is progressive science, and to stand still is practically to take a backward step.-California Fruit Grower

Toilets in Japan.

This is the way q Japanese belle takes bath, according to a travel CT:
 The pretty little maiden lit the stove under the bath, got down her little bag of bran, and laid ready her best kimono and her new obi. By this time the water was boiling, or nearly so, in the cedar tub, she took away the stove threw some of the water over her, sat on the floor beside the bath, scrubbed herself with bran, deluged herself with water again, and then for two minutes in she went, scattering the drops all over her with her wooden dipper.
 But there was no time to waste even over the delights of the bath; her hair had to be redone, and this took some time, for our musumi was a kyoto girl, and kyoto girls are not only the prettiest but the best turned out girls in all Japan, so she was not satisfied with her tire-woman until Ter btdtk lpthS silOite ltht Silk dll0 IitT coitfure a Ia Eulisan was as stiff as camelha oil could make it.
 And, after her hair was done, it took her some time to arrange her obi--it would not come right; first 1t insisted on tying itself into a crooked knot instead of a beautiful butterfly bow; when the knot had been smooth ed out and by chance 1t sat straight 1t was too flat and Not stiff enough.
 However, q Japanese girl does not know how to lose her temper, not even over her most irritating obi, and at last, coaxed with showers of laughter and suptle hands, 1t sets as 1t should; her breakfast does not take long, and then she runs over the mats, slips the cord of hersandals between her big toe and number two, and clatters down the street

AN INVOLUNTA CHASE,
How a Maine Soldier Got a Dinner
 of Roast Goose.

How a Maine Soldier Got a Dinner
 of Roast Goose.
 A man who was caught in the act of skinning neighbours sheep cover ed his embarrassment by declaring that no sheep could bite him and live. The logic of this, says the Youths Companion is equaled by that of the Yankee soldier, who once had Q mar row escape from an enraged gander. The man of certain Maine regiment, which was in the enemy's country in 1862, considered the order Ion forag- ing an additional and uncalled for hardship. One afternoon about dusk a soldier was seen beating rapid re- treat from the rear of a farmhouse near by, closely pursued by a gander, with wings outspread, whose feet seemed scarcely to touch the ground, and from whose beak issued a sue cession of angry screams. The fugitive was not reassured by the cries of the gander's owner, Hold on, man, hold onl He won't hurt youl"
 "Call off your gander! Call him off" shouted the fleeing soldier.
 Neither man nor gander stopped until inside the camp lines, when the soldiers friends relieved him of his fierce pursuer with the aid of the butt of a musket.
 "Did that gander think he could chase me like that and live?" the sol dier exclaimed, as he surveyed the outstretched bird; but he said noth- ing of the baited hook, with the cod line attached, which might have thrown light on the unfortunate gander's strange actions.

 Good gracious!" exclaimed Meg, looking at Jimmie with horror.
 But Jimlnie was bursting with his wrongs.
 Perhaps you think you had the hardest time of 1t, but If you had to amuse an extra baby three hours, you'd know finding a baby was worse than losing onel"
 Meg was so impressed with his air of Youths Companion.
