The Beauty of Flowers.

There is nothing in pictures or in
ornaments to equal the colors of the
commonest garden flowers. They
battle all reproduction and beggar
all description; they are incompara-
bly, fine and perfect beyond any
thing that human effort can achieve.
All the artists in the world could
not produce anything equal to the
petal of a geranium, and the very
best approaches to nature which
canvas OF paper can exhibit are in
evitably dimmed and spoiled by
time. Flowers themselves only re-
tain their brilliant hues while alive
and healthy. So long, therefore,
only is our admiration accorded, for
dead or withered flowers are ugly
and contemplate. Certain gems owe
half their value or utility to that
quality which neither flowers pos
sess nor painters can bestow-the
quality of perpetual freshness.
Flowers secrete nectar. They also
possess sanitary advantage con-
nected with the absorption of car
bonic acid gas from the air. Put
ting all these items together, they
constitute very small yet decided
aggregate of utility, and flowers
notwithstanding, it will be admit
ted on all hands, serve to sustain
very large amount of beauty. Lon

Quick Wit.

less barrister, famous in the sixties
in Victoria for his fun and audacity,

lively advocate had come tc that
time in his career when much whis-

speech ended, and questions were
invited. 'Aspinall," beloved a
stalwart digger, 'tell us what makes
your face so red!' "Blushing at
your COMPOUNDED impudence, sir!'
was the quick reply. 1t carried the
meeting.
Sir Rupert Steve-we may call
him so-an eloquent colonial barris-

as Asphalt was, though of very
different habits of life. He is also a
very bitter opponent of the ministry.

ORIGIN OF LACE,
The Making of Fine Meshes-some Inter.
esting History.

Ihe Making of Fine Meshes-Some Inter
esting History.
Handmade lace has fascinating
history, says The Woman's Home
Companion. Some have supposed
that it originated in Egypt, the land
that gave birth to nearly all the
arts, but search diligently as you
may and you will never discover
in mummy's tomb, on sculptured or
painted wall or in any archaeological
find whatever, the pictorial or actual
remains of this poetic tissue; neither
is there documentary evidence of
its presence there. GAUGES and nets,
fine muslins and exquisite embroid-
cries, fringes, knotted and plated,
you may meet with frequently, but
this fabric without a foundation,
this ethereal textile, named by the
Italians ''punto in aria" (stitch in
airy, you will never chance upon.
Why2 Because it did not exist before
the fifteenth century; because it was
invented by the European woman,
forming her contribution to the re-
naissance, and was unknown to the
orientals, who have even now NO
love for its pale perfection and do
not use it in their costumes or in
household decoration. It's lack of
color makes it unlovely in their eyes.
Fanciful stories have been woven
to account for the invention of the
art, and the honor has been claimed
by both Venice and Flanders. Yet
it did not at once spring into being
in full perfection, but was rather an
evolution and came by degrees.
In "punto tagliato" (cut point we
first perceive cropping in it's direc-
ton, for with the piercings of white
embroidery we have a lighter effect.
In drawn work punto tirato") an.
other step was gained, and in retic.
ulated grounds or network we have
decided advantage. Upon this net
the pattern was darned in, and in
France it was called "lacis," the
nearest word we have to lace. After
these efforts came total emancipa-
ton from all foundations, and the
"punto in aria was an assured fact.
The first lace, it is thought, was
made with the needle (point), the
pattern being traced upon parch-
ment or paper, and the outlines
marked by a thread, caught now
and then to the paper, to keep it in
place. Upon this scaffolding the
sight superstructure was built, and
the method is still the same. Soon
afterward the bobbins came in as a
factor, aud the needle and the bob
bins remain to this DAY the only
means employed to produce hand
made lace. So that all of it resolves
itself into the two generic kinds

and pillow, by the bobbins, or there
may be composite article made by
both.

The first Of the class matches of the
Haverford Grammar School was begun
yesterday between the senior and junior
classes. A wet wicket and a decided
wind kept the players from making any
very high scores. The '0S class scored 81,
and the $50 totaled up IA for one wicket
at the call OF time.
The team which will represent Har-
ward in the intercollegiate golf tourna-
ment at Ardsley Casino today has been
finally selected.
The recent rains have SO flooded the
bottom lands south of Ithaca that the
water is fully three feet higher than
usual, and consequently the crews on
the inlet are greatly bothered by drift
logs and sticks, which float down the
stream and are exceedingly dangerous to
anything but the aluminium she'll. The
Varsity are rowing as usual with the
exception of Reed, who is rowing in
place OF King. The fact that Briggs went
back to No 2,while Bentley took Briggs
place at stroke, one day last week. was
a mere experiment on the part of the
men themselves, and although Mr..
Courtney gave his permission for the
change it meant nothing, as the crew
have rowed in the usual order since,
with Briggs stroking.

CYCLIEvS.

The chainless bicycle is as scarce as
tomatoes outside OF a dollhouse these
days. The sight OF any of them is recon-
mended as an almost, unfailing remedy
for sore eyes.
Toe-clips are becoming popular with
women riders now, and no little number
of them are seen on drop-frames these
days.
1t is naturally supposed that women
cyclists lose their heads quicker than
men do under trying conditions.
Jack Robertson, of England, and
Francois MERCER, Of France, left Havre
on Saturday on the Touraine. They
come to this country to Join the racing
team of the National Cycledrome, Am
brose Park.
The Germans seem to be uncertain as
to the state of affairs here since the dec
aration of war with Spain. August Lehr
is to be one of the National CycIedromes
racing team, and on Saturday he cabled
w. j. Morgan to know if, considering
the war, his contract would stand. He
,, was cabled q very emphatic affirmative.
Tom Eek, who has charge of the pac-
ing teams of ybe National Cycledromc, is
determined that the beauty of his
charges, of which he is extremely proud,
shall not be marred by the lack of a
striking uniform. So he has designed

larity OF the Leaf her foothold. 1t is cal
culated thit they will eventually take
the place of the nickelled clips, for the
reason that he latter are hard on bicycle
shoes. The constant movement of the
foot, in conjunction with the revolutions
of the toe-clippod pedals, wears out the
front of the shoe, and at the same time is
liable to cause a soreness of the toes.
The leather clips, it is supposed, will do
away with this. Many cyclists how
ever, do not like the leather clip, which,
they say, has a radiator-like effect on the
foot, making it uncomfortably warm.
The band Of leather drawn tightly across
the toes, they say, has tendency TO
make that part of the foot which is COW

Earl W, Peabody, the Chicago amateur,
who finished the season with one hun
dred and twelve first prizes to his credit,
is willing to turn professional in order to
get on match race with former cham
pion Arthur A. Zimmerman. He will
first apply to the Racing Board to allow
him to ride the "Skeeter'' as an amateur.
Peabody has written to the latter, asking
him to race at one mile without pace
makers. Zimmerman closed his last
amateur year with one hundred frsts to
his credit, and ever since the Chcagoan
has beaten this his one ambition has
been to defeat the great champion in an
open contest.
Tom Cooper is willing to meet any
rider in the world for three mile heats,
with time limit Of two minutes on each
heat. This challenge is taken to mean
that Tom is riding in his old time form.
