curious little shop once had a counter on each
side;
At one florist sold his wares. and one was oc-
cupied
BY clever little lady, who. during business
hours,
Made up the very finest kind Of artificial flowers.
One night, when all was dark and still. the for
lists stock in trade
Began to boast among themselves that they were
grown. not made.
A naughty rose speaking and she tossed her
fragrant head
Shook off pearly dewdrop and to her neishbofs
said:
ooh, violet and daffOdil, oh, ionquil and carna-
ton,
Be thankful you're the real thing and not an
imitation:
Glance at those manufactured things across the
shop and see
The hideous atrocities named after you and me-
Contrast those painted bits of rag called artificial
flowers,
With all the exquisite effects Of petals such as
ours.
The idea is sacrilege, and yet this thought
it brings;
Let US be thankful we're ourselves and not those
awful things"
OF course the artificial flowers this conversation
heard
And one and all they were with righteous indig-
nation stirred
The velvet violets quivered and the satin lilacs
shook,
While rose of crimson chiffon gave a most dis
dainful look
At the blossoms who had houted her and said:
"A chiffon rose
Is ten times more expensive than any flower that
grows"
''Expense,'' bridesmaid Rose cried out; "how
sordid is the thought!
Beauty and fragrance such ours for you could
not be boughti'
And then the quarrel grew apaee and angrily it
ragged
The flowers of Nature and OF Art woeful war
fare waged,
Until at last in sheer despair the conquerors'

Should be the ones to whom the farest fate might
be decreed.
"And this the fairest fate shall be- said they.

Serene and eloudless rose the sun upon the Easter

Two large white boxes to Miss May by messen-

One held a mass of fragrant blooms-violets

The other box hat contained, deeked with the
rival posies.
