roofs surrounded by a wall about four
feet In height and freely decorated with
growing pants. on this CARL n the mer-
chant sper Dis his evenings. famed by the
cool breezes that blow from the Medi-
terranean sea, banis hing all fatigues and
refreshing his wearied brain.
From these prin.cval gardens originated
tho sumptuOus ones of the civilized world.
The Euro eans were slow 10 adopt the
roof gardens. and when thy did II was

swallowed II. An hour later the people
in the house found her in stupid Goa
dition and tried to rouse her. Their
efforts were in vain, and the ambulance
was telephoned for. 1t responded with
Dr. Moncure in charge.
The practiced eye Of the physician at
once saw that hc had been called too
late. but he at once went 10 work on
the unfortunate woman and did all he
could for her All his labors were in
vain. however, as she died As above
stated.
The people at tho house where Mrs.
Taylor died were in no way related 10
her and refused to take charge OF her
body. II was accordingly taken TO the
almshouse. after it had been viewed by
Coroner Taylor, who decided that an
inquest was not necessary.

attempted to commit suicide by taking
Iaudanum, when she lived on Seven
teenth street. about a year ago, and was
only resusticated after prolonged efforts
on tho part OF physicians.
