ENGLISH WOMEN GARDENERS.
pritons Dream IL 60 Have q Garden
spot-rhis Accounts for
womsns Interest.

In England every body either has =
garden or dreams OF having one. An
American family with a modest sub
urban home hires a man to come and
NOV the lawn. Then II pAtronizes the
Horst and the green grocer says Har-
pers Bozar, An English family has
Its own flowers, It's own vegetables, its
own fruit-growu on the sunny side
OF brick w0ll-and a gardener. SO
II is natural enough that the girl gar
dener idea should have taken root in
England, and that having taken root.
II should thrive. Al Swanley they say
that they cannot begin TO supply the
demand for women gardeners. The
woman's branch was started in 1891
with one lone female student The
attendance has almost doubled wear
by year, and the young women who
have taken the college course are oe-
eupying positions all over the United
Kingdom. Two OF them are In the
famous Kew gardens, near London.
Two are in the Edinburgh Botanical
gardens and two In the public gardens
at Dublin, Three are on a large es-
tate At Arbroath. called Letham
grange. One is at the home established
by Lady Henry Somerset at Duxhurst.
One is at Wycombe Abbey, two at the
Convalescent home at Hale, one nt the
Royal Holloway college, and so on,

SOUTH SEA ISLAND CUSTOMS.
Some PecuIiarities of Love Making
and Marriage Among tho FIJI
Islanders and Others,

One would imagine that love making
in Fiji was very tame affair from the
fact that marriages are often arranged
while those most nearly concerned are
still in their infancy. However, court
ship there is quite as interesting as
anywhere else, and II has some peculiar
features, says the Chicago Times-Her-
aid.
Cupid's happy hunting ground is gem
orally garden or plantation, and on
moonlight evening he is generally
pretty busy. AT that time, high up in
the branches OF the bread fruit trees,
those who have eyes TO see may spy a
pair OF human love birds perched on
the branches 40 feet or so from the
ground. Fijian etiquette seems TO de-
mand that the fair one and her lover
should occupy different branches, and
should be separated by the trunk OF
the tree-this, at any rate, is the usual
custom.
Spare the bite and spoil the child,-
would probably be the South Sea island
mothers rendering Of the wise mans
saying, for she knew nothing OF the
use Of the rod as means Of correc-
ton.
Instead OF Furnishing her offspring
in ways known TO European mothers,
she pulls hair and bites some part Of
its body, generally selecting the fieshy
part Of its arm for the purpose. Thus
II happens that travellers note among
little South Sea islanders many bear
ing wounds or scars which have been
produced by the mothers teeth.
The mode Of caress is as queer as
that of punishment. 1t Is either TO
gently take hold Of the child's neck
with the teeth, or to pass the thumb
deity over its eyebrow or cheek.
