JASMINE TIME IN THE SOUTH.
Luxuriant Nature is Now Making I

Luxuriant Nature is Now Making It's
Finest Floral Display.
Tourists down south in these March
days rhapsodize over the beauty of the
jasmine that grows wild on every hand
and fills the air with fragrance. Wo-
men come in from their afternoon
drives with their laps filled with jas
mine, invalids go into ecstasies over its
delicate beauty, it's subtle odor, and
men, young and old, rough and gentle,
stop to look at the tempting cluster or
to break off sprig too lovely to be
left AS for the bees-the wild bees
that have had hard time all winter
they hold carnival.
Long before any other woods growth
| is resurrected for the spring, before
even the dogwood and maple blooms
get well under way, the jasmine gets
in it's fine work; she is wanton, very
| willful, and as if drunk with her own
sweetness, for six weeks or more riots
in a delirium of beauty up hill and
down dale, in swamp and woods and
hedgegrow, all over the country.
Out in the lonely woods the jasmine
burns
It's fragrant lamps, and turns
Into a royal court with green festoons
The banks of dark lagoons.
In the deep heart of every forest tree
The blood is all aglee,
And there's a look about the leaf1ess
bowers
AS if they dreamed of flowers
