AN oLD-TIME GARDEN.

Once / knew garden plot
Filled with fragrant flowers.
None was rare, but all were fair.
After summer showers.
Up from beds Of mignonette
In the sunlight sleeping,
Up from beds of mint and thyme,
Perfume sweet came sweeping.
Crimson peony glowed beside
Purple Haunting mallow;
Marshalled by the garden wall,
Hollyhocks grew trim and tall,
Red and white and yellow.
All along that gardens walk
Sweet pinks were blooming;
In among the columbines
Brown bees were humming.
Lad's-loye and larkspur
And daffydowndilly,
Scarlet poppy. marigold.
And spotted tiger-lily,
Sweet alyssum, grew therein,
And the pansy tender.
Great blush-roses pearly-pink
Oh, my heart Is sick to think
On the vanished splendor!
Foxglove and four-o' clock
Caught the sunlight sifted
Through trumpet-fower and virgin't
bower
On the trellis lifted.
Lavender and bergamot
Strayed beyond the border,
And priyet prim lowered over all,
Like some ancient warder.
Oh, that garden did abound
In all rich completeness!
Eeyen now. across the years,
Summers breeze unto me bears
Its scent Of sumer's sweetness.
Long ago that garden fair
From the earth departed,
Up and down l sought it long,
Half broken-hearted.
Oh, Its very place was gone
And one Knocked me: Never
More your eyes shall look upon
Its lost bloom, forever"
But know my garden now,
Somewhere, still is blooming;
And the kindly angels fit
In and out, and tend on it
Till my tardy coming.

A ROYAL JUNKET
ROUND THE WORLD.


There was great stir and hustle In
Canada recently because the duke and
duchess of Cornwall and York were
looking over their prospective do
mains. All the British colonies have
felt the same sensation, and Canada
has had 1t before at rare intervals.
But the inspection tour of an heir ap-
parent is a notable event, and Canada
has done bravely in her efforts to con-
vince Englishmen that the dominion
is not, after all, a dreary, icy, uninhab-
tied waste, "genteel Siberia" The
royal pair did a great deal OF travel
ing in Canada, sufficient, indeed, TO
open their eyes to what an immense
country IL Is. In Canada alone the
duke and duchess travelled more than
1000 miles, and this at the end OF a
trip around the world. The dominion
was first crossed from east to west,
and on the return trip southern ana
central Canada were visited. the itIn-
erary In Canada was as follows: Que
bee to Montreal, 172 miles; Montreal
to Ottawa, 40 miles; Ottawa to Victo-
iAug AtotV inlieSs NICIpIld VI lOTOUtO,
2,769 miles: Toronto to Niagara. So
miles: Niagara to Kingston, 246 miles,
Kingston to st. John, GA miles; st.
John to Halifax, 275 mi rs.
Between the duke OF Cornwall and
York and King Geor q III. of reyolu-
tionary fame there are only three gen
erations of the royal family--the duke
OF Kent, son of George ILL.,; Queen Vic
toria, daughter of the duke of Kent
King Edward VII. son OF Victoria, ana
then George, duke OF Cornwall and
York. son OF King Edward VII. From
George III, the heads Of this direct
line have all visited Canada, with one
exception, that of Queen Victoria.
For a time the duke Of Kent lived In
British North America the prince OF
Wales paid the American continent a
visit In 1860, and his heir has been
the dominions guest. Canada has
also been visited by three other mem
bers OF the royal family--by Prince
Arthur. brother OF the king and now
the duke of Connaught, by the mar.
cnioness of Lorne. and by the late
Prince Edward, elder brother of the
duke of Cornwall and York. The last
visit OF the duke of Cornwall and York
10 Canada was made in 1890, when he
was known, as Prince George of Wales.

She seemed to think all the credit was
due to Marie, but Katie Rich told her:

HEALTH RESORTS FOR THE AGED

Speaking of the value of health re-
sorts for the aged, a writer in the
Journal of Physical Therapeutics
recommends that they be accessible.
For many elderly persons long jour
neys are not advisable, although they
often travel very well, if care is taken
to provide them with their usual
avoided. Upon arriving at resort,
meals. Incessant change of air slim
ulates them, and they are often re-
freshed by long journeys. Sea voy-
ages are inadvisable, on account of
the risks of cold and exposure. The
climate should be temperate, and in
winter SHOULD afford a fair proportion
OF warmth and sunshine. High winds,
dust and dry atmosphere are to be
several days of complete rest should
be taken to allow of the natural ad-
justment to change of climate and
surroundings. No sudden changes in
the diet should be made, although a
moderate and cautious change Is usu-
ally beneficial Waters should not be
given in strong doses or in large guam
titles at first. Neither hot nor cold
baths are ever desirable for the old,
and sudden alterations of temperature
and mechanical shocks should be
avoided. Variations in temperature
should not exceed 20 degrees Fahren-
heit, and mechanical stimulation
should be gentle and continuous rather
than abrupt. The various forms Of
massage-douche are often very useful.
as is also the immersion bath at a
temperature slightly below that Of the

ment in later life is to regulate and
equalize the circulation, to act upon
the nervous centers, both as a soda
tive and stimulant, and to stimulate
the glandular and eliminative func-
tions, including those Of the skin.

HER SECRET.

After the new schoolhuse was
built in M, the old one passed tC
the ownership of Squire Higgins, and
through him it underwent sundry re
pairs and engagements.
At last board appeared in the
window, covered with strange hero
glyphics, and the public was supposed
to be made acquainted with the fac
that the building was "To Lett and
any information desired would be
gained by calling at the squire's Office.
One morning the blinds were closed
and smoke was seen curling up from
the chimney and Maggie Higgins vol
unteered the information that a boy
had been sent for the key the night
before. and an expressman from a
neighboring town had landed someone
at the steps "just in the edge of the
evening" There had been some furni-
ture and lots of trunks and boxes"
All question was soon put at rest,
however. One bright morning the
blinds were found to be open. and in
the window was an astonishing dis
play of bonnets and flowers, and a
very modest sign announced that
Marie Alger would be pleased to serve
the ladies of M, to the utmost of
her ability. She did not have to wait
long for callers. and very soon her
shop became the headquarters of fash
ion and gossip.
When it was ascertained that Mrs.
Judge Deering and DR.. Simpsons wife
would taste her taste in the weighty
matters of dress, instead of making
semi-annual trips to the city she was
overwhelmed with orders, and her sue
cess must have surprised herself as it
did others.
All wonderment in regard to Marie
had long since ceased and she came
to be regarded as a fixture in the
place. II was an accepted fact that
she would never marry. for she had
refused the position of Mrs. Deacon
Stokes, number three, and the privi-
lege of being stepmother to the two
sets OF children. While the deacon's
suit was pending he was censured for
seeking a wife out of "the regular
membership" and when she refused.
the blame fell upon her slighdng such
distinguished honor. Miss Brown
thought it was tempting Providence"
for the deacon had not been so faithful
as a husband.
Il don't see" said Miss Brown. how
you could help liking him, when he
picked you out, and you haven't any
one to love you, either"
Marie's face flushed a little, and she
hardly knew whether to laugh or cry,
so by way Of compromise. she put her
arms around the poor patient woman
by her side. and whispered, II think
God is keeping him for you. ana to me
He will bring other good in the best
time, Indeed, nothing could be better
than that your mantle OF patience
should fall on me, when you've no
longer need Of It,"
That very evening Marie received a
letter which sent her at once to Miss
Brown. with the request that she
would come and stay at her house and
Keep the store open II might be for
weeks and II might be for months.
Marie offered no explanation. only as
she parted from her friend she said:
kiss me, and wish me grace and
peace"
There came no word. and Miss
