Japanese Flowers.

The Japanese are expert at gardening,
and give such individual attention to each
blossom that they obtain wonderful re-
suits. Upon asking a gardener if it were
true that they help the buds of delicate
flowers to open by gently tanning them the
answer was that they do SO in the case of
choice flowers.
No matter how humble the little home,
it is frightened by a vase with at least one
flower or spray of autumn leaves, etc.
Their arrangement of flowers is always
lovely, such harmonies of form and color.
There is no stiffness, for they try to initiate
nature.
1t is marvellous what man can do if he
has the mind for it, I examined a
tree in process of development. Almost
every twig was tied with fine thread and
''bent in the way it should CO."
The entire population turn out to honor
the flowers and write poems, tying them
to the branches. This habit of composing
little poems is sometimes rather amusing.
On one occasion when the British minister
wife left for Europe, the empress presented
her with the versicle, ''Why does the gray
goose fly home to her brood?"
The Japanese term for picnic signifies
ito go out and see flowers and a pro-
verb runs, FLOWERS are better than dump

Cycling.

A physician writes to medical contem-
porary as follows about cycling: "a wheel
that sells now must be very light, the
brake and all superfuous appliances that
weigh dram must be left off; it must
be high geared, with high seat and low
handle bar. Thai is the model bicycle of
today. Such wheel is unsafe to coast
upon, so much SO that coasting is out of
fashion. To ride one Of these bicycles, one
must get a big hump on his back and as
sumo very uncomfortable position. I
have machine with the handle bars high,
so that I can sit perfectly erect, in the most
natural position, and am not exaggerat-
ing when I say that it tires me more to
ride 90 miles in a carriage than it does to
ride my wheel that distance Ny advice is
never to ride wheel that you cannot sit
erect upon, and always avoid too violent
Or prolonged exercise. It promotes deep
breathing better than climbing hills."-

TIE PASSING or BALoUR.

Low on the ship he lies,
Circled with fire;
Red glow the sunset skies
Flames darling higher,
Glance in his sightless eyes II
higher and higher.
Meath him the pillows lie
Blood red snd bright;
Sea birds above him fly
Bathed in the light;
Sunset along the sky
fingers through night.
Northward the breezes bring
Murmurs of blame;
Sea voices muttering
Whisper his name;
Waves tha4 would quench 1t eprinx
Over the flame.
Ear in the pallid west,
Faded, forlorn-
While on the waters breast
Daylight is born
Baldur the loveliest
Passes from morn.
