Musical Recitation.

Although the Quakers, as q sect. dc not favor music, regarding it as a profit. less amusement indulged i'll by ths worlds people, there are occasionally stories told which show that the love of music sometimes steals its way into 6 Quaker household in spite of discipiiue.
 George Thompson, the famous English abolitionist, while featuring on the abo. iition of slavery in the British provinces, stopped one night with Quaker family. He was a great lover of music, and at that time was good singer.
 During the evening he sang loft In the Silly Night, " which was listened 10 with the closest attention.
 In the morning his Quaker hostess appeared somewhat uneasy. Sine wished to hear the song again, hut it would hardly do, she thought, for her to re quest its repetition, At fast, however, her desire oSereame her scruples.

A MORNING GLORY CULT,
This Flower Taking the Place of ChryD-
 anthemums In Japan.


 Miss Eliza Ruhamah Seidmore has an article on "The Wonderful Morning Glories of Japan' i1 The Century. Miss Seidmore says:
 As Q floral sensation the ehrysaa 5he- mum may be said to have had it's day, the carnation is going, going, and seek CTS after novelty among flower fanoiers are signing for new flower to conquer. It is hardly known, even to foreign reg idents 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 i1limitable variety there attained this suaa' ye flower preeedes all others until it's cultivation has become craze, which is likely to spread to other countries, and-who knows-per- haps there introduce the current Jap anese custom of 5 o'clock in the morn. ing teas and garden parties.
 Asagao, the morning flower, Is more especially Japan own blossom than the chrysanthemum, 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 hundred varying forms
 We who know and grow the nsAn- ing glory as humble back ya1f, vine on a string-a vine with leaves like those of the sweet potato and puny little pink or purple fowers-are as far in the floral darkness as the Chinese, who know it chiefly as wild thing of fields and hedge raws, the vine of the little trumpets" or the dawn 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 permeated 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 asagap was brought to Japan with the Buddhist religion, that partio- nlar cult of early rising, Scholars and priests who weAt 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 bo tree, and Tai Kwan, the Chi. nese priest at the Obaku temple in Uji, 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 mor- rows glory. is Tai Kwan's best known verse.
