A BOTANICAL FREAK.
One of Natures Curiositics, the
Plant Atol.

One Of the curiosities OF nature is known
as the plant atol. There are but a few of
these known to scientists, says the New
York Ledger. This atol is made up OF a cir
Gle of growing plants. They are found
floating on the top of ponds or lakes. They
form a hoop-shaped figure and are loosely
matted together at the roots, which make
Il sort OF cup or basin. to which more or
less vegetable matter falls or floats. There
Is a sufficient amount OF nutriment in this
to keep the plant growing. As it increases,
the roots become longer and larger and in
time the plant may anchor itself in the
sell at the bottom of. the pond. These rings,
after many years of accumulation ana
growth, make what appear TO be small IS
lands. II is the opinion OF certain scientists
that islands may have been formed In this
manner The roots catch all floating vege-
tables or animal matter. Leaves collect anu
form mold and after awhile birds may drop
or plant seeds on the little pol that floats
on the top Of the water. These take root
and further assist In the growth OF the
little Island. II may take centuries for the
plfnt TO come to any size, but with nature,
1000 years is but as yesterday.

WOMEN IN HORTICULTURE.
They Are Successful Because They
Love Their business.
Weeks Magazine.

' - - -io-aEiAts
According to tho census OF 1890, there
were $40 commercial greenhouses or about
one in fifteen owned and managed by wo-
men. We have a personal acquaintance
with several women who are successful
retail florists. Other women to our knowl-
edge, are making a success OF raising car
nations aud other flowers for the wholesale
trade, These people soon learn that the
business Of raising and selling flowers Is
beset by much care and labor that does not
come under the head OF poetry. And YET
nearly all women florists that we have met,
were led into the business because they
frst of all loved flowers. II adds to the de-
light and success OF any occupation II one
has n love therefor.
There is no question that, ms a rule, woth-
en- have a greater fondness than men iot
flowers, why therefore should they Lot
engage in growing and handling them iop
profit? The rougher work about flower
raising. such as the care OF greenhouse
furnaces. the handling Of soil and manure
ana the like can easily be done by men VINO
work for moderate wages. II women are
successful as florists. they are equally 81
as raise;s of vegetables and smaller t'hns'
especially trawberries; they direct tpe
rougher work, help to prepare tDe ~i'roduce
for customers, and perhaps take IN nhhu

ALTAR OF ROSES.
How This Delicious and Expensive
Perfume IL Mulc.

Perfume IN Made.
The word altar is from the Arab 'itr, "
and means perfume; so altar Of roses is
simply perfume OF roses. II is brought
from Turkey and the East Indies in small
phials and is very costly. Even on the
spot where it is manufactured it is ex
tremely dear. because 1t requires 100000
we'll e roses to yield but $50 grains
of altar.
Its high price cause 1t to be often adult
terated with some essential Ut fixed oil. CT
with snermaceti. However. the adulterdtion
may be detected by testing it In a watch
glass with a drop of s%ulphuric acid; If the
altar be pure 1t VIII remain coiOrless-tor
pure altar of roses il colorless; but II II
be adulterated II will become darkened.
In rose fields. where the roses are grown
for the purpose of making the altar, the
bushes are planted in rows. In the early
morning they are l,den with beautiful
roses. but ere noon comes they are all
gathered. and their petals distilled in clay
stills. with twice their weight Of water.
The water that comes over is put into
perfectly clean vessels and is then care
fully covered with damp muslin cloths 10
keep out dust and insects. 1t is afterwards
exposed to the night air or to artificial
cold. By morning a film OF oil has col
lected on the top of the water. just as
cream rises on milk; this film is swept OF
with a feather and very carefully trans
ferred to a small phial. Night after night
this process is repeated until all of the
precious oil Is separated from the water.

dime.
All who want to send dimes must hurry
up about II, because this chance won't last
long. l Will give you just about ;wo more
weeks in which TO send dimes and that is
all. Then. at the end OF that time, tho
name of every little boy and girl who
owns a brick in the Faith Home wall be

printer can make, for everybody TO see, and
If your name isn't there how dreaufully
sorry you will feel. but II it is there, YOU
VIII have something which will always
make you proud and happy.
This week there came a letter from taI-
away California. and all the other latIt RS
were from Houston boy. and girls.
Remember, every hoy and girl IN Texas
can buy u brick. OF Course ii YOU aren't
fortunate enough to live in Texas. Won ara
