A MORNING GLORY CULT.

This Flower Taking the Place Of Chrys-
antheaa#ns In Japan.
MISS Eliza Ruhamah Scidmore has an
article on 1.-THE Wonderful Morning
Glories of Japan in The Century. Miss
Ecidmore says:
AS a floral sensation Che chrysanthe-
mum may be said to have had its day,
the carnation is going, going, and seek
ers after novelty among flower fanciers
are signing for a new flower to conquer.
1t is hardly known, even to foreign res
idents in Japan, that that land, which
has given us so much of art and beauty,
has lately revived the culture Of its most
remarkable flower, the asagao, our
morning glory. For size, beauty, range
of color and illimitable variety there
attained this sunrise flower prccedes all
others until its cultivation has become
q craze, which is likely to spread to
other countries, and-who knows-per-
haps there introduce tho current jap
anese custom of 5 O'Clock in the morn
ing teas and garden parties.
Asagao, the morning flower, is more
especially Japan's own blossom than
the chrysanthenum, which, like it,
came from China as primitive sort Of
weed, afterward to be evolved by Jap
anese art or magic into floral wonder
Of a hundred varying forms.
We who know and grow the morn
ing glory as humble back yard vine oil
a string-a vine with leaves like those
of the sweet potato and puny little pink
or purple ffowers-are as far in the
floral darkness as the Chinese, who
know it chiefly as wild thing of fields
and hedge rows, the vine Of 1.-THE little
trumpets'' or the ''daN II flower, that
is entangled with briers and bushes for
miles along the top of Peking's walls.
The old poetry and the old art do not
seem to be permcated with it, as in
Japan, where the forms Of vases, bowls
and cups, the designs and paintings Of
the greatest masters, repeat the graceful
lines of vine and flower, and scores of
famous poems celebrate the asagao in
written characters as beautiful to the
eye as is their sound to the ear.
The asagao was brought to Japan
with the Buddhist religion, that partic-
uiar cult of early rising. Scholars and
priests who went over to study the new
religion brought back the seeds of many
Chinese plants The tea plant came
then, and Eisai brought the seeds of the
sacred DO tree, and Tai Kwan, the Chi
nese priest at the Obaku temple in Vii,
who may have introduced the flower to
Japan, was one Of the first to sing of
the asagao in graceful outas, classic
poems which scholarly brushes repeat
today. Asagaos bloom and fade SO
quickly, only to prepare for the NOR
row s glory. is Tai Kwan' S best known
verse.

FRANKLIN,S GRAVE.
Reasons Given For Allowing 1t to Remain
In Its Present Condition.

Reasons Given For Allowing IL to Remain
In Its Present Condition.
Benjamin Franklins grave is in q
neglected condition. No appropriate
stone rises over it, the ground round
about it is uncared for, and the tomb Of
the great scholar and statesman is as
obscure as that of man whose name
and fame were no part of the glory of
his country.
| His grave is destitute even of head
stone. 1t is covered by an old fashioned
marble slab which was placed there 100
| years ago and is now worn and discol-
ored by age.
Nothing has been done to it since
| Franklin was buried there, and even
the modest arrangements of the grave
are not kept in the perfect condition
that is expected of a great man S tomb.
! The earth on all sides is bare of grass,
the common matching of the common
est grave, and an air of desolation is
about the whole place.
The sexton said that the descendants
of Franklin would not do anything to
repair the grave; neither would they al
low anybody else to do anything. Ey-
cry day he has received offers of sub
scriptions from visitors, who are dis
tressed by the forlorn appearance of
Franklin's resting place and who would
like to see it improved In reply he
says, as he has been instructed, that
Franklin wished it SO, being a plain
man ayerse to display of any kind. I"
Not long ago, at his own expense, he
had the fading inscription recut, or else
even the only distinguishing mark, the
name, would be gone.
If he had not done SO, the last rest
ing place of the greatest man, o1tside
Of Washington, in American history
would have been forgotten and I'M
known. Who is responsible for this con-
dition Of affairs? Not the living rela-
tives of Franklin. The responsibility
rests with the American people, to
whom che man belongs. They should
see to it in the future that what little is
there to mark the grave is kept in bet
ter order than it has been in the past.
Before he died Franklin provided for
his own gravestone and instructed a
stonecutter of his acquaintance in every
detail, even to the inscription which
was to be placed upon it. He desired to
be buried beside his wife, who had
died some years before, and common
slab was to be placed over them both.
The inscription arranged as he ordered
it reads:

Men who have had long experience
with lions give them very bad char
acter. There is said to be no art in so
called lion tanning but the art of terror
Ism. and no rule but keeping the lions
stomachs full and their minds cowed
There never has been, and there never
will be, say some. an appeal made to
the lion S intelligence, because the lin,
tied amount OF that quality which he
possesses is entirely dominated BY his
feroeitv.

wabbled when He Game to rossum.

Old Uncle Glaybrook is very reli-
gious old darby and holds converse
with his Maker twenty times a day or
oftener. His habit is to pray and then
turn off into what appears to be one
sided conversation with the Lord, but
it is evident that there is another party
to it as far as-he is concerned. To hear
him reminds one very much of tele-
phone conversation.
The other day he was going through
his customary devotions, and when he
got to the point of expressing thankful
ness for the many blessings of lifeahe
broke off into recounting of %heth,
says Cicero T. Sutton of the Ovens
boro Inquirer. "An den, dar's possum,
Lord--how'd you ever think of maxim
possum? Postum jes' beats all. You
jes' couldn't beat it eff you tried ag'in.
Possum, he, he Yes, dar's watahmil-
lion. I hadn' thought of dat. Hits jes'
great. You couldn't beat hit neither,
could you, Lord? Now. homes, couldn'
you jes' fix it SO dey bofe git ripe at

go out an shet de do. Dey wouldn't be
no 1no' sin an no mo- sorrow an no mo-
tribelation. Jes' try hit oncet, Lord, an
jes' see whit a diffunce hit would
make.
And then "old uncle" began to hum
quaint negro camp meeting tune and
stopped to look at a piece of liver in a
butchers stall as the best substitute for
his loved possum or as best suited to
the small piece of money which repre-
sented his total movable wealth.

How Punch and Judy Came to England


The heyday of the puppet show in
England was during the last century.
Long before then strolling showmen
had exhibited "drolls or motions
as fhe English puppets were known in
the early days-to crowds of gaping
rustics, but it was not until the time of
Steele and Addison that the puppet show
became fashionable amusement, pat
ronized by upper tendon.
Pulcinella came to London in 1866,
when an italian puppet player set up
his booth at Charing Cross and paid a
small rental to the oyerseers of st. Mar
tins parish. His name was at once
Engiished into Punchinello. which was
soon to be completely Anglicized as
Punch. Harper Magazine.
