For more than a century, from
1869 to 1880, the tulip had an undis-
puted reign TIL a rival appeared in
the shape Of a double hyacinth.
Rea says of the "hyacinth, OF Ia
,cinth:" It Is "of divers sorta and
many of them of small esteem. +"
Some double varieties were, howev-
ca, known at that time, three being
mentioned by Bauhin, but the double
kind from which modern ones have
been derived was raised at the end Of
the seventeenth century BY Peter
Voorhelm, "a celebsated Dutch florist.
The hyacinth was never quite such a
rage as the tulip, though during the
height of its popularity great prices
were paid for bulbs ia Holland. It
is said as much as 1900 forms, or
about $3.50. was given for one root

A Legend.

A legend was told me the other day
which may interest you. A young
man, disseminated with his lot, dreamed
wonderful dream. He was carried
into beautiful country, and was
driven in slate through leafy bowers
and under srching trees, through
groves, redolent with orange blossoms
Rare exotics bloomed on every side.
The place seemed very fairyland OF
beauty. After driving for miles and
miles, he stopped before magnifi-
cent palace. 1t was built of marble
and the carving was of the finest
workmanship. Its minarets and
domes were ornamented with rare
jewels, which flashed in the sunshine.
The doors were of pearls, the floors of
gold, and the ceilings, instead of be-
ing frescoed, were studded with ru-
bies and diamonds. The building
was of enormous size, covering with
its wings, fully square mile, and
eVerything was on scale of rare
splendor. Stepping to one side of the
palace, his eye rested on a dark
brown niche, small, but in such a
striking contrast to the place, that he
asked the guide what it meant and
why that was not marble also and set
around with precious stones. Imag-
inc the young mans surprise when he
said, "The fault is yours. This is the
Palace Beautiful, and this is your
niche. You have been unhappy be-
cause of your lowly station in life, and
since you could not have a position of
prominence, you have spent your
time disconnected, while others have
been improving their time and
talents. 1t rests upon you alone to
make this palace perfect" The
young man awoke, saw the lesson
taught by his dream, and set to work
to marbleize his brown nlche.-New
