The Rose,

At all times the rose has enjoyed pc
euliar favor as q sacred flower. Mo-
.hammedan tradition says that when
Saladln captured Jerusalem he refused
to enter the shrine Of the temple which
had been converted into a church by
the Crusaders till the walls had beer
thoroughly cleansed and purified with
rosewater. A similar story Is told OF
the Church OF st. Sophia, at CONSTANT
nOple. when transformed from a Chris,
tian place of worship to n Moham
medan mosque. The origin of the rose.
according to MosleIn tradition. Is tha'
the blood OF the prophet sprang int
new life In this glorious crimson tiOT
er. To this day when Turk sees S
rose lying on the ground he will raise
1t tenderly. kiss it reverently and de-
Sosit the frail blossom In some placa
Of safety.

The ChImneY Swift.

Occasionally a bird is strong minded
enough to break away from Old tradi-

the swift nestled In hollow trees, but
after trees began to be cut down and
chmneys arose above the roofs OF
houses everywhere the birds were
quick to perceive that ires are general
ly out by the time their nesting season
arrives. Therefore why not take ad-
vantage OF the innovation? SO com
pletely did they forsake their old nest
ing sites to build in chimnays that the
name chimney swift is now universally
applied to them. Ladies' Home jour
