"Well. l must tell you. Bourgeuil,
that you have a heart OF stone"
And l tell you. old lady. you are
a singleton"
Saying this the master mason went
out, slamming the door after him.
Then, sitting down alone by the even
ing lamp, the old mother softly cried
over her knitting. Bourgeuil, who
could not endure the sight of her sad
face, took refuge in a nelghbori-g cafe,
where he passed his evenings at cards.
In the pauses of the game he bemoaned
the degeneracy of the times, when the
authority of parents was despised by
their children, and when every day
saw family respect grow less. He, at
least, would set a good example and
would be severe to the last with the
disobedient son. AS this was his sole
topic of conversation. in spite of the
prestige given him by his fortune, his
companions did not hesitate to call
him behind his back bore" and an
old "miser" In his presence, however,
they praised his flrmness. One, whose
pipe was especially offensive, invari-
ably responded to the old mans i'm
precautions with the remark:
Bravo, Father Bourgeuil! You de-
serve to be a Roman"
Now, Father Bourgeuil possessed
very confused notions concerning an
tiquity. Still, he had a vague knowl-
edge Of the story of old Brutus, and
the thought that he was a man Of that
stamp fiattered his vanity exceedingly.
For all that, when he left the cafe and
found himself alone in the darkness he
said to himself-very softly-that that
same Brutus had a hard heart, and
The Yale expositor. (Yale, St. Clair County, Mich.) 1894-current, 1899-03-31

been so industrious, so economical and
SO devoted. And it was this woman
whom he was making suffer because
of their unworthy son. But was he
really so unworthy? OF course one
should honor ones father and ones
mother. Still. perhaps there are ex-
cuses for faults of youth.
Just as he had reached this point in
his sad reflections the old lady took a
bunch of the lockwood and hung 1t
over the photograph of their Edward,
taken when he was a collegian, at the
time he had won all tho prizes.
The old mason hardly knew where
he was for moment, so strong was
the flood Of memory. His head swan;
the odor of the lockwood intoxicated
him; but it was with pity and gener-
osity. He went up to his wife, took
her hands, and, after glance at the
picture he said:
Shall we forgive him, Clemence?"
All! her cry OF joy pierced his heart!
And her husband had called her Glenn
ence, as in the days Of her youth. It
had been more than fifteen years since
he had given her that name. She un-
derstood that he loved her still.
She Rugged him and kissed him
many, many times. Then, taking his
head in her hands. she whispered
something in his ear. She could keep
the secret no longer. The Sunday be-
fore she had gone to see her son. He
was so penitent for having offended
them, but he would have asked for
pardon many times had be dared
And you know" she added in a
loving voice, you know, l saw his
wife. You could not have asked for a
sweeter one, l assure you. So dainty
and pretty? She adores our Edward ;
one could see that at once. She keeps
her poor little home as neat as wax.
Her past? Yes, | know. But, since
Edward loves her-and then, in our
humble sphere one is not so severe.
And besides, father, in short time we
shall be grandparents"
Father Bourgeuil tremblingly said:
Enough, mother. Have the table
laid for four and send for a carriage.
Wait; take one Of the branches as a
token OF peace-and bring them back
with YOU"
While the mother, overcome with
| happiness, wept on her husbands
breast, he-where now was ancient
Brutus, the Roman" broke down
and sobbed like the weakest Of women.

HISTORY OF THE EASTER LILY,

The Easter lily as we now know it
was brought from Japan and China by
an American named Harris and intro
duced into Bermuda in 1872, and from
the beautiful British colony In the At
lantic come most OF the Easter lilies
in use in our eastern states. Califor-
MIA supplies the western states, and in
Chicago both varieties may be found.
In Bermuda the Chinese lily received
the name "Lilium Harrisii," which 1t
retains to this day. It's common names
are the Trumpet lily" Bermuda
lily" and Easter lily"
Because of the fact that Bermuda
supplies the leading cities on both con-
tinents with the Easter lily bulbs there
is popular impression that the lily
is native of this island, but old
growers there have no difficulty in
proving this and in proving the his
tory as given above.
In order TO become marketable a
bulb must measure at least five inches
in circumference, and, starting from
the scale" the technical name for
one of the folds or petals OF matured
bulb, three years Of training and care
is required before it attains this size.
There are nearly 200 farms in Ber-
muda which are devoted exclusively to
the cultivation of the lily. At Sunny
lands. the largest Of the big farms,
just outside of Hamilton. 1t is COM
mon sight to see 10000 or more of the
lilies in full bloom in a single field.
The field retains its beautiful effect OF
snow-white purity for nearly month
and longer. Then the stalk dries and
the nourishment goes back to the
bulb. During the latter part OF June

The Question VIII be Voted Upon at
SATURDAYS Election.

The school election occurs Saturday,
and besides voting for one member of
the school board III each precinct, the
voters will pass upon the question of
free text books. This question can be
voted upon by both men and women
voters and is expected to draw out
large vote, as sentiment in the city is
divided, 1t is said that the patrons of
the parochial schools will vote heavily
against the proposition, on account of
the added burden of taxation which it
iavolyes. On the other hand. the pa
irons of the public schools seem to favor
che proposition, as the cost of books
will be shifted from the individuals To
the public and the retailers profit will
be eliminated. There are arguments to
advance on both sides Of the question,
and the voters should give the matter
their thoughtful consideration in order
TO pass upon it intelIigently. If the
proposition should carry, it would not
be put into effect for another year.
