HIS PRIZE ROSES.
A Little Secret That Was conaded ts
the Wrong Man.

A Little Secret That Was Confided TO
the Wrong MAN.
An amusing incident is reported in
connection with small flower show
in the north Of England. One of the
classes-cut roses was open only to
cottage gardeners within certain ra-
dius, and the winner turned up in a
laborer whom we will call Sandy. The
lucky individual was in high feather
and hung about near his exhibit all the
afternoon receiving the congratulations
of his friends.
Beautiful roses,r remarked a well
dressed stranger to Sandy. They tell
me, however, that If Briggs had been
qualified to enter he would have beat
en- you"
Now, Briggs was the rose grower
par excellence in the neighborhood;
but unfortunately for him, he was
just outside the radius.
Briggs be hangedp' calculated San
dy. "He amt got no better roses than
themw
That's nonsense!' retorted the
stranger. Briggs roses are the talk
of the district"
Sandy still stuck to his point and be-
came quite confidential. Between
you and me-" be whispered eventually,
Briggs amt got better roses than
them, COS them's mis-! He couldn't en-
ter himself, so he gave me the pick Of
his garden"
The stranger was satisfied, and it
was only afterward that Sandy dis
covered to his cost that he had con-
fded his secret to a member of the
show committee. London Tit.Bits.

Throwinx Rice At Weddings.

Like roast pig the origin Of throwing
rice at weddings is Chinese. and the
legend is scarcely less worthy of
Charles Lamb: "A famous sorcerer
named Chao became jealous Of the
power Of another sorcerer, woman,
and, conceiving a plan to destroy her,
he persuaded her parents to bestow her
upon his supposed son, The crafty
Chao chose the most unlucky day for
the wedding, the day when the Golden
Pheasant was in the ascendant, SO that
when the bride entered the red chair
the spirit bird would destroy her with
his powerful beak. But Peachblossom
gave directions to have rice thrown Out
at the door, and she passed put un-
harmed while the spirit bird was de
