There is no trouble to obtain all kinds

and when you buy blue carnation or
blue or red,lilies of the valley, you won
der how such curiosities were raised.
Well, they were not. The cut plant was
dipped into a 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

and, in fact, the rust of nails, are all
excellent materials in producing colors

We had been at Rocky Mountain hotel

finally decided to send the colonel to the

SENATORIAL COURTESY.
The Gentleman from the South Gave
Way and the Senate Was
Adjourned.

Senator Pettus, of Alabama, is the most
owl-like member of the senate. He is so
ponderously solemn that he is unconscious
ly humorous
Mr.. Pettus will be so years old next July.
He belongs to the old school of southern
statesmen now fast disappearing. 1t is easy
to see, in the dogmatic manner in which he
lays down the law to his senatorial coll
leagues, that he has been Judge. He speaks
with great elaboration, at the rate of about
six words a minute, and each word is en-
phasized by the waving of his chin whiskers.
His gestures are confined to wide sweep of
his arm from his body and an inverse mo-
ton. Everything he does or says is serious.
Even when he wants the senate to adjourn,
he goes about it in away that is the very
quintessence of solemn dignity. For in
stance, the other afternoon, when Mr..
Spooner was talking on the Quay case, Mr..
Pettus arose.
"I should like to ask the senator to give
way for motion, if he pleases," remarked
Mr.. Pettus, uttering each word as if the
fate of the nation depended upon the an
swer.
81 will agree to anything the senator
wants me to, replied Mr. Spooner, smiling
ly, Except to vote against my convictions on
a constitutional question"
81 am not asking you to do that" said
Mr.. Pettus, still mysterious, "but I want
you to give. way to motion"
We'll, what is it ?" asked Mr.. Spooner.
ut is to ADJOURN" answered Mr. Pettus,
in his melancholy voice and without a
smile.
Every member of the senate laughed, and
the motion to adjourn was carried.-Wash'

There is more Catarrh in this section of
the. country than all other diseases put to-
gether, and until the last few years was
supposed to be incurable. For a great many
years doctors pronounced it local disease,
and prescribed local remedies, and by con-
stantly failing to cure with local treatment,
pronounced it incurable. Science has proven
catarrh to be constitutional disease, and
therefore requires constitutional treatment.
Halls Catarrh Cure, manufactured by F. i.
Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the only
constitutional cure on the market. It is
taken internally in doses from 10 drops to a
teaspoonful. It acts directly on the blood

COLORING OF PLANTS.
Freak Roses, Carnations and Lilies of
the Valley Are Produced by
Means of Minerals.

There are any number of human be-
ings in this world who do not acqulesce
in the wonderful works of nature and
who are not on the constant lookout to
improve if possible, some of her in
situations.
The question of how to color rose
In order to counterfeit natures obstl-
macy in not producing that flower with
blush hue has been good parallel to
the problem of the alchemists.
For many years all sorts of coloring
materials have been utilized without
any success, though, for the dyes en-
ployed were usually of the aniline char
acter. which is poisonous for all kinds
of living plaLts.
Ever since Alexandra Dumas immor-
talization of the black tulip, attempts
have been made, but without results,
to produce such a quasi-beautiful
flower. In fact, all efforts to alter the
pigments of our familiar flowers have
proved to be mere experiments, nor
has ANYTHING definite been obtained
beyond a queer-looking discolored
plant, more dead than alive.
By the process of grating, where
nature was called in as an agent. the
results of varying the hues and pig
ments were of highly satisfactory or
der.
But then since ages there has been
a premium for the production of blue
rose, blue dahlia and black tulip.
Roses of black color were exhibited
not long ago in London. The variety
did not survive. 1t is more than likely
that aniline mixture was the cause
of the color as well as the death. The
carnation lends itself readily to expert
ments in coloring. In Belgium, where
that flower is regarded as national"
institution, thousands of varieties are
produced. In the coal mining regions
It used to be of frequent occurrence
