TENDERNESS.

 Not unto every heart is Gods good gift Of simple tenderness allowed: we meet With love in many fashions when we lift First to our lips life's waters bitter
 sweet. Love comes upon us with resistless power of curbless passion and with headstrong
 will 1t plays around like April's breeze and
 shower,
 Or calmly flows. a rapid stream. and still It comes with blessedness unto the heart That welcomes 1t aright or-bitter fate!- ~ wringS the bosom with so fierce a smart Shat love, we cry, Is crueler than hate And then. ah me! When love has ceased to
 bless, Our broken hearts cry out for tenderness! We long for tenderness like that which
 hung
 About us. lying on our mothers breast: A selfish feeling, that no pen or tongue Can praise aright since silence sings it
 best: A love as far removed from passions heat As from the chillness of its dying fire: A love to lean on when the falling feet Begin to totter, and eyes to tire In youths bright heyday hottest love we
 seek.
 The reddest rose we grasp-but when 1t
 dies, God grant that later blossoms, violets
 meek.
 May spring for us beneath life's autumn
 skies; God grant some loving one be near to bless our weary way with simple tenderness!

Recent Excavations In Greece.

That which most stimulates the ardor of
the excavator, laboring, as he generally
must, amid difficulties and discomforts of
all kinds, is the romantic interest of his
pursuit-a feeling so fresh and exhilarat-
ing as to throw into the shade the proven
bal excitement Of the gold digger. No
find of gold can outweigh the rapture of
the explorer who brings old worlds into
now life. The sensation must be expert
enced TO be understood. 1t is the fascina-
tion Of passionate love. Only resur-
rection of the dead could surpass its trans
ports. The soil which has been for ages
tho faithful custodian of an Inheritance
laid by in trust for the pious and worthy
worker yields to his persistent efforts the
treasures it has sheltered. 1t gradually
reveals the secrets it has guarded SO long.
1t is made to speak in a way more persua-
sive than the most eloquent historian, and
from Its inner darkness it sheds more light
upon the past than the sun itself can give
A successful excavator creates new chap
ters of history. He lends substance to
what were deemed but myths and brings
into being personalities not even dreamed
of before He fills up the gaps in whole
epochs in art and eluoidates, beyond con-
tention, the meaning of authors which the
combined erudition of the learned was NOT
able satisfactorily to explain. The deter
mination of ancient sites fixes events in
history. Buildings, statues, actile vases
and other works of art make clear the evo-
luton of civilization. The very soil in it's
successive layers, with their evidence of
devastations, wreckage and burning, is
called upon to testify to occurrences which
are doubtful or altoget~ unknown, and
vague book knowledge is exchanged for a
positive intimacy with the practical life of
ages gone by.-Forum

HOW TO GROW ROSES.
A Few Plain Instructions For Producing
New Varieties.

New Varieties.
"I wonder" flower lover said the 9TH
er day, "that many Of the women who
have time and not much to do with it do
not go in for the development of new
roses. No, the field is not one that prom
ises swift and certain return. That is
the very reason it should appeal to those
, in need Of hobby. New roses come to
pass, you know, in just two ways-they
are either seedlings or sports A sport, un-
derstand, is q branch of a growing rose
that Is not content to blossom after the
way of its parent stem. I5 has different
form, OF color, or habit of growth-some-
times all three-in which case it is trebly
valuable. How it comes to be sport the
wise men are not agreed. Some say 1t Is
through inherent tendency to variation ;
others declare that it is due to environ
mept-soil, temperature, light, exposure
and fertilizers myself think both causes
are operative to degree, but believe fur
ther that the potential use Of II is one Of
naturo's secrets as yet unsurprised, A very
famous sport is the pink rose Bridesmaid,
which developed from the yet more famous
white rose Bride AS roses are propagated
from cuttings, sport once we'll establish
ed usually comes true to name. Very
many valuable ones are, doubt not lost
every year through the failure of private
growers all over the country to recognize
and fix them. - = x
"But seedlings--now there is chance
for skill, and hope, and patience-in fact, o
| large segment Of the Christian virtues To
begin, you must raise the seed and choose
the species that shall be parents of your
new plant with care. They must be stocky,
healthy plants, too, and not allowed to
| overblossom-in fact, two or at most three,
flowers are enough. Cross fertilization Is
made possible by the fact that the anthers
of the stamens open earlier than do the
pores of the ovaries. From the flower
which is to be fertilized the stamens are
clipped off as soon as they develop. Then
a few hours later pollen is gathered from
the anthers Of the other flower and with q
fine oamels hair pencil laid upon the pis-
til Of the first one Then the whole trans
action is reoorded--date, names of parent
sorts and the fertilized flower carefully
watched. If the calix swells and after
awhile ripens into seed, the operation has
been q success. Thus when the seeds are
ripe they are sowed and the resultant
plants carefully nursed till they reach the
stage Of blossoms. There the beautiful un-
certainty makes itself manifest. Two mag
nificent varieties have been known to
come from a batch Of dozen seed, and
again 10000 have not given new sort
worth mama. .,Indaed- axnariannad. nrnw-
