ALL IRELAND A GARDEN.

Perhaps nowhere in all the world is there climate more suitable for the growth and culture of flowers than Is our Irish climate, assuredly nowhere else is there the same background of tender, beautiful green to throw out and enhance their loveliness. In a sense. all Ireland is a garden in the spring and summer of the year, untend- ed and wild though it's blossoms may be.
 What could be more beautiful than a boreen on a sunny April morning? Its banks and the sides of the rugged cart way are a veritable carpet of flowers little half-brothers, the primroses; shy eyed, modest violets, daisies and ten- der young fern fronds, making galaxy of beauty in the soft green moss.
 A little later. in the month of May, the same banks will be studded with buttercups and the pink and white blos- some of the sweet-snelling clover; the hedge behind them will have put on it's new coat Of pale green. bedecked with the blossoms of the hawthorn, "the dar- ling buds of Mary The delicately white, almost transparent blooms of stellaria, the star flower, chamber side by side through the bramble with the speedwell, limpid blue as a baby's eyes. In the moist, nnarshy places, the wild orchids, in varied tints of white, rnauve. pink and violet. push up their stately heads through the lush green grass; the ground ivy and the wild spearmint send forth pungent fragrance as one press es the peaty sod beneath one's feet Norah T. o'Mahony in the September Donshoe,s.

choice. The stage settings are very elab- .orate and complete; the garden, scene is, perhaps, the prettiest of all, and all
 the appointments are in the most per feet taste. There will be a matinee Sat .urday.

non-commissioned officers and men serVign in all quarters of the globe, as we'll as several doctors. Never did a service committee take greater pains to sift complaints and suggestions. As result We are on the eve of a complete revision of the conditions in which the bluejacket lives. In the past he has been given quantity and, as a rule, quail ity, but not variety, and in very bore dom at the weary round of rations he has been in the habit of spending a considerable sum out of his own pocket on more or less necessary commodities. For these he has paid anything from threepenee to ninepence day out of his pay, a large sum considering the amount of pay he receives. Now this order of things is to come to an end, and no longer will the fleet men have only three official meals a day-break- fast on turning out, dinner at noon and supper-mark this-at a quarter-past four o'clock. The weIl-esta blished GUS tom of giving the men time to have a hastybreakfast at "stand-easy' about eight o'clock in the morning, and real supper at night before turning in, will be recognized officially. and will not de- pend on the will of admiral or captain. In future they will have five duly re- cognized meals, occupying three hours and thirty-fiye minutes. instead of only two and half hours, as now, and the dietary has been arranged with view to providing variety of food. They will receive more tea, sugar, preserved meat, raisins and fresh vegetables when these can be obtained. and for the first time the official ration will include com pressed vegetables, jam, condensed milk and coffee; the bluejacket will still be without butter. As a set off, certain reductions in the quality of other arti- cles will be made, and Jack will have less salt tack These reforms will cost over one hundred thousand pounds an nually.-L London Telegraph.

LIFE IN THE BRITISH ITS NAVY.

No one can remain for many days upon British man-of-war without mo- ticing the quiet revolution which is in progress. It is affecting almost all
 branches of tie service. We have final ly bid good-by to the oldsspacious days;
 steam and steel and mechanics have driven sails and wood and brute strength over bourne from which they can never return. As lately as two years ago, when I last witnessed man. oeuvres at sea, the authorities still held desperately to the last remnants of old times; still shut their eyes to the inevi- liability of the completion of the revolu- ton which began under the Russian de- fences, when the. iron floating batteries of Napoleon III, by their invulnerabili- ty of fire, convinced the world that the wooden ship had to go.

STATUE WILL
BE DESIGNED
BY PRINCESS
Duchess Of Argyll Will
Z Outline Monument
to Soldiers.

DUMBARTON, Dec. 5.-The Duchess
of Argyll, better known as the Princess
Louise and a charming daughter of
the late Queen Victoria, is at this time
the most successful of royal artists.
Her latest commission is to design a
heroic bronze statue in memory of the
colonial troops who gave up their lives
in South Africa in the Boer war. The
statue is. to have place in Westmin
ster Abbey.
When the. colonial troops committee,
a relief organization, discovered after
the war that it had an unexpended
balance, it was decided to erect a men,
orial to the colonials. Although the
abbey authorities had ruled that no
more memorials should be placed in the
historic edifice, they were persuaded
to provide space in the nave for the
colonial memorial.
A committee, of which the Earl of
Carlisle and William Hamo Thorny-
croft, the sculptor were members, con-
cluded to ask the Duchess of Argyll
to make the statue, and her Royal
Highness cheerfully consented to
do So
The Duchess has shown from earliest
childhood a marked aptitude for both
sculpture and drawing, and she has
spent many years in serious study. at
one time working daily with her cousin,
the genial and kindly sculptor, who,
though a Prince, preferred to be known
as Count Gleichen.
Princess Louise is very proud of the
fact that she has often had her work
exhibited, especially in foreign CALLER
les. where the identity of the artist
was not suspected She is fonder of
sculpture, than she is Of oil painting
or of water color, and she has done
some really fine statuary, particularly
charming being the presentment of her
own mother as ''The Maiden Monarch" :"
This extremely attractive and original
statue is in Kensington Gardens.
The Princess loves her home at In
verary Castle. near here, but is as fond
of travelling as is the Duke of Argyll
and together they have made more
than one long and romantic journey on
the Continent, deliberately choosing
those places where the ordinary tourist
never dreams of going.
Her Royal Highness has retained the
most affectionate regard for "Our Lady
of the Shows" She still keeps in close
touch with some of the leading Cana
dians whom she entertained at Rideau
Hall. and shefs fond of receiving dis
tinguished colonials in her delightful
suite OF apartments at Kensington
Palace. -

MRS. WICKs IN LONDON.

Mrs. Wicks, who is we'll known in
every part of the. United States through
her interest in woman's clubs, is again
in London. For some time this lady
has been in Paris, arranging for a club
whose members are to be drawn exclu-
sively from the highest high society. 1t
is to have an international character in
that equally exclusive English and
American women who may be passing
through Paris will be welcomed. The
price of membership is expected to be
prohibitive for the ordinary smart
clubwoman, and a large number Of
members is not much desired. One Of
the very first points about the club is
to be its rigid exclusiveness and the diff
ficulty of any not of the first rank in
society being elected as a member. For
the purpose of studying the best meth
DDS Of running a smart social club, Mrs
Wicks is now going about among the
London organizations. She has seen
the clubs with mission, the restful
clubs for workers, the society clubs
where music and entertaining goes on.
and those clubs which are more on the
lines of a mans club where the men,
bers find all the peace and comfort they
desire, but who do nothing. An Ameri-
can this summer, visiting one of these
special clubs, which are luxurious
