Luminous Flowers In France.

profusion of fresh flowers. But the
natural blossoms appear to have ac-

found that here and there artificial
blooms made of suitably-tinted glass
have been placed, in the hearts of
which shine electric lamps. The same
electric flowers are used together with
luminous fruit for the dinner table.
They are, in reality, artificial fruit,

He had been two months on the place
before he spoke more than dozen
words to his employer. He had worked
well, asked no favors, made no mis-
takes. Under his asslduous efforts The
wilkins place had taken on new signs
of prosperity and beauty. Then he
came to wilkins one evening and said
that he'd like to spend one day In
Chicago. He wanted to buy some
clothes, he said. and would like to have
his pay. There was S12 due him, and
wilkins had only $40 bill.
"All right, Green" said the big
hearted suburbanite, "heres a twenty.
You can bring me back the change;

The "Keystone state"

Pennsylvania has been called the
keystone State" Two explanations
have been given of this name. Accord
ing to the first, the Declaration of In
dependence was trembling in the bal
ance, six colonies having voted for
and six against it, the vote of Penn
sylyania was cast In favor of the decla-
ration, and thus majority was Sc
cured. According to the other expla-
nation the name was purely an acci-
dent. When the Rock Greek bridge
was constructed, near Washington, the
stones OF the great arch We're inscribed
with the names of the States, and
when 1t WAS finished the discovery
was made thct the name of Pennsyl-
vania was on the keystone of the arch,
and thus was applied afterward to the
State.

~ UNDAY morning. while Mrs.
~ wilkins was at church with
= Tommy. Mr.. Wilkins, in def
ance of the social ethics of
Lake Hill, put on his overalls. and,
rake In hand, attacked the carpet of
dead leaves that covered his lawn.
He knew that his wife would make a
scene II she caught him, and he knew
tnat his Sabbath-breaking would fur
dish another argument against subur-
ban life, and he anticipated considera-
BILE guying from his male neighbors,
and yet, in spite Of all these misglv-
ings, he raked the leaves into rustling
piles and watched with dogged salts
faction the columns of blue smoke that
rose among the oaks from his unholy
fires.
wilkins had employed seven different
"hired men" since spring. None had
stayed more than a month, and none
had carried away either the esteem or
good will of Mrs. wilkins. Most of
them were worthless, some dishonest,
some lazy and some lacked that regard
for the proprieties which the woman of
the house insisted upon. So 1t came TO
pass that Wilkins had hard time get
ting. to say nothing of keeping, SER
viceable hired man, and when the
leaves began to fall his lawns, gardens,
vines and orchard were in sad case, his
chicken-house needed repairs, his coal
cellar was empty, his winter kindling
was unchopped, and his loyalty to su-
burban life was tottering. Therefore
he had defled all precedent and on
Sunday morning attacked the work
with his own hands.

add to the breadth. and the hats fortu-

the ruling shape. White lace hats are
