There is no trouble to obtain all kinds

blue or red lilies of the valley, you Won
der how such curiosities were raised.
Well, they We're not. The cut plant was
dipped into mixture of aniline, and
the results thus obtained were not the
faults OF nature. Most recent, however,
is the report that flowers can be colored
during cultivation and without injury
to the plant. Alum is one of the chem
icals utilized with success. Iron, vitriol,
and. in fact, the rust of nails, are all
excellent materials in producing colors

Ever since Alexandra Dumas immor-

He has recognized slavery and po-

He bought peace from the Moham-

of representation and ali other rights

He declared in n message to congress
that forcible annexation under our
code of morals would be criminal az

He told congress that it was our

the interest of the latter the former
quickly agreed to pay the miners q
trifie more money. But it tied a
string TO this agreement. 1t would
pay the advance. Yes. But it would
do this only as the price of disunion.
And Hanna accepted the condition.
So the miners may get Paltry 10
per cent increase of wages through
Mark Hanna's powerful influence if
they will conseDf to destroy their own
organization. And when their organ
ization has been destroyed, they may
then accept any terms the coal trust

be powerless to resist.
