Mrs. Belmont, who is a botanist OF
great learning. At her daughters wed
ding she showed her taste in laces, ana
in her gardening she exhibits ner
knowledge of plants, particularly Esyp-
tian and tropical ones. Inc recent
transfer of Mr.. Belmonts properly 10
her was probably effected in order that
she might let her exquisite taste run
random with the flora Of the immense
country estates.
The late Jay Gould and the living
Charles A. Dana are said to be the only
men within a century to have cultlVat-
ed rare plants and flowers because tney
loved them, rigidly adhering to their
rule not TO part with one for any con-
sideration of money. Both brought
their learning to bear upon the stock
ing of immense Conservatives, and
both will be famed in amateur garden
ing for their discoveries and collec-
tons

she prizes a certain great water lily
pond in her domains. This is stocked
with lilies that seem to wake up with
the sun and to 90 to sleep only when
blanketed with ice. All summer there
is a sheet of sweetness lying over the
water.
The little cripples of Woody Crest
enjoy these lilies. At Woody Crest all
the useful arts are taught, and the cur
riculum embraces knowledge of flow

The Carlisle bow is the one cultivat-
Cd vainlv BY Gladstone for years, lest
no give offense to some by treating 9TH
ers better. II is a polite lift, without
sign of recognition. other than bearing
the head. The hat is taken of the head
and carried TO the side OF the face, and
there held still for forty seconds, as in
a military salute. 1t is then put back
and without lifting his/eyes the walker
keeps his pace.
A bow like this has certain advan-
tages over the fulsome one. All get the
same bow. share and share alike. But
il is not a salute that ever wins friends.
II is not the hearty, so-glad-to-see-you
bow that some people demand of man
before they will cast a vote for him.
The Carlisle bow. to get long way
from politics to phrenology, means a
respect for God This is shown by a
lowering Of the forehead. A disrespect-
full man never does this. 1t means a
pugnacious honesty, gO-straiSht-
ahead fearlessness. and an absolutely
Immediately disposition. 1t is better
bow than the Whitney lift, but not so
capable" a one.
CRISP AND CLEVELAND.
Crisp and Cleveland have another
Characteristic in common besides the
same initial and the same politics. That
is the same trick Of not tipping the hat
when il should be tipped and merely
saluting when wave Of the entire head
covering is called for.
Not long ago Mr.. Cleveland gave NOR
tai Offense 10 the friends of Sir Julian
/ Pauncefote by lifting a finger 70 his hat
in the presence Of ladies instead of CIV
ing the regulation American bow. Sir
Julian. on the contrary. lifted his hat
with cordial ceremony. putting the
President in the awkward position of
being out-diplomated in his own capital
city.
The Crisp bow has a careless wave
that is only redeemed by the cordial
smile that goes with ii. II ism. much
OF bow. II is more I'm looking at
you. Glad to see you. Hope sou feel
the same" That is not the implied
feeling Of reverence that is extended
7 with certain very effective hat tippings.
The Crisp bow TO a man who studies
7 personalities scientifically means a
good open character. a manly straight
forwardness and one who can be trust
ed both personally and publicly. None
