JAPAN'S WONDERFUL MORNING
 GI OIY

As floral sensation, the chrysanthe- nun may be said to have its day; the carnation is going, going; and seekers after novelty among flower fanclers are signing for new flower to conquer. It is hardly known, even to foreign resi- dents in Japan, that that land which has given us so much of art and beauty, has lately revived the culture of it's most remarkable flower, the asagao, our morning glory. For size, beauty, range of color and illimitable variety there at tained, this sunrise flower precedes all others until it's cultivation has become a craze which is likely to spread to other countries, and-who knows?- perhaps there introduce the current Japanese custom of flve-o' clock-in-the morning teas and garden parties.
 Asagao, the morning flower, is more especially Japan's own blossom than the chrysanthemum. which, like it. came from China as @ primitive sort of weed afterward to be evolved by Jap anese art of magic into floral wonder of hundred varying forms
 We who know and grow the morning. glory as humble backyard vine on a string-a vine with leaves like those of the sweet potato, and puny little pink or purple fiowers--are as. far in the floral darkness as the Chinese, who know it chiefly as a wild thing of fields and hedge rows, the vine of "the little trumpets," or the dawn flowers" that is entangled with briers and bushes for miles along the top of Pekins walls. The old poetry and the old art do not seem to be permeated with it, as in Ja- pan, where the forms of vases, bowls, and cups, the designs and paintings of the greatest masters. repeat the graceful lines of vine and flowers and | scores of famous poems celebrate the assagao in written characters as beauti- full to the eye as is their sound to the ear.
 The asagao was brought to Japan with the Buddhist religion, that par- ticu1ar cult of early rising. Scholars | and priests who went over to study the new religion brought back the seeds of l many Chinese plants. The tea plant came then, and Eisai brought the seeds of the sacred botree; and Tai Kwan, the Chinese priest of the Obaku temple | in Uji, who may introducted the flower Japan was one of the first to sing of the | asagao Tn graceful outas, classic poems | which scholarly brushes repeat to-day. | 'Asaeaos bloom and fade so quickly, only to prepare for the morrow's glory i is Tai Kwan's best-known verse-Miss Eliza R. Scidmore in the Century.

spent the greater part of their lives in
the service are discharged, retired or re-

homes, and to be thrown out without
warning is a hardship. No mercy IL
shown by Chief Ripley to old and faith
full policemen. He swung his ak right
and left, and the ground from South
Chicago to Rogers Park is strewn with
decapitated and disabled policemen.
The order is the best kind Of a lesson
in favor of civil service. Had the men
who are affected been under the protect
ing wing Of civil service Chief Ripley
or Mayor Harrison could not have
harmed them. Civil service has never
been favorably received by a great ma
jority Of the police force. The eyes Of
these men have now been opened to the
situation. They have seen what a chief
Of police can do with a man who is not
a civil service appointee. Chief Kip

of adherents to civil service who for
merly were opposed to it,
