I'll HE me back and watch the budding
Climb the steep TANKS Of terraced Lebanan
To catch the noontide shadow of his

Cluster about the giant walnut tree
Where oft linger while the sun is hot
And look beyond the mountains to the sea
score of hamlets lie beneath my gaze,
Their red roofs peeping through the null.
And distant Cyprus shimmers in the haze
Upon the limits of that brilliant scene.
Entwine, thou rose, thy dazzling snowy
wreath,
Needless of man, beside the upland pool:
Thy priceless beauty shall not fade beneath
The gnawing canker of the Turks mis-
rule.
Ye rosy oleanders Of the stream
Lift 1T, to the the blue the radiance of your

herds, dream
Amid the thickets of their emerald leaves.
How sweet to ramble down those valleys
Remote from cen the wandering Arabs
Where dewy dropping fronds of maiden

Fringe cleaning clumps of pink-lipped
But must CO. Goodby, most lovely land!

Perpetual sunshine is thine heritage.

IN LAVENDER-LANp.
HOW the Fragrant Harvest in EuI
land is Gathered in,

HOW the Fragrant Harvest in Eng
land is Gathered in.
Only ten miles from London lies law
ender-land. Glorious patches of purple
flowers bathing in bright Surrey sunshine
seem to make the air heavy with their
sweet, oldfashioned scent for miles
around. Just now they are busy in Law
ender-land gathering in the seasons har-
vest. The inhabitants of the little vii
lage OF Wallington-upon which the man
tie tie Of Mitcham, formerly the center Of
the industry, has fallen-are cutting the
purple blossoms and making them into
sheaves. From the fields the sheaves of
lavender are taken to the great distillery
which stands within the aower-laden gar
den of Miss .Sprules, the lady. lavender
farmer who has done so much for the
revival Of the local industry.
Years ago, when Miss Sprules first be-
gan its cultivation, the local lavender
was in a bad way. A succession of So
we're winters with killing spring frosts
had almost exterminated this once-fa-
nous lavender of Mitcham and the
neighborhood, and the foreigner was
pouring his inferior scents into the Eng
fish market. Now the industry has be-
and in spite Of the encroachments Of the
builder, which have already driven the
lavender from Mitcham and are threat
ening it in the neighboring villages of
Carshalton, Wellington and Beddington,
there is enough of it grown in the dis
trict to last yet for many year.
The old London street cry is almost
dead. In but few places now can the
old, familiar call, "Sweet lavender"
bring back to memory the days when
the use of the flower and it's scent was
almost universal among the women of
England. But in spite of this the sale
Of the English lavender is again increas-
ing, thanks largely, no doubt to the
patronage Of the late Queen. Lavender
in branches, lavender in bags, oil Of law
ender, salts of lavender, lavender disin-
fectant and lavender waterfall are being
sent away in quantities from the little
cluster villages.-London Express.

For instance, there is a splendid XII

satin is embroidered exquisitely with
small sprays Of flowers in pink and red,
while small designs worked in gold

The white kimonas embroidered in gold
are conventional, but what women would
not be proud to wear kimona Of white
silk, soft and creepy as snow, embroidered
delicately with sprays Of purple violets
and pale green leaves. This lovely robe
is lined with purple silk.
Another white robe is Of satin and
gorgeous enough for Miss Cherry Bios

lined throughout with fame-hued silk and

that she failed to win the honor Of de-

usefulness in moving sidewalk than

If yacht Of her class fails as originally
constructed, she can try her stern for a
bow; and if she fails again. she can try
her deck for bottom. Several years

as originally designed, became a cham
pion when her stern was used as the bow
by transposing the rigging.
