Culture ana Riches.

II one-tenth as much attention were
devoted to the fools among the middle
and working classes as is devoted to
the fool sons of the rich. we should be
in danger Of believing with Carlyle
that the people are mostly FOOLS" 1t
is true that the culture of the suddenly
rich is cruder and narrower than the
culture of those who have had genera
lions of wealth and leisure. but culture
Is relative. The culture OF the most
cultured classes in the old world is the
result of large wealth possessed for
generations. Culture Is matter Of
growth, but 1t never grows in poverty.
The cheapness OF the culture of the
very rich in this country az compared
with that of the aristocracy of old
countries is simply the difference be
tween youth and age. a difference OF
experience. There is comparative
cheapness in the culture. bearing and
manners OF the people OF the west
MS compared with those OF the east.
and for the same reason. The nristoc
racy of the south and of New England
have refinement quite unlike that Of
the newly made rich in New York and
Chicago and the west. They have been
longer in the making.-Gunton's Maya

try. Red roses only are used in max
ing the perfume, but white roses, which
grow more freely, form the hedges OF
the fields.
The trees, which grow to a great
height, are separated by paths nine
feet in width to allow the oxen and
pillow to pass. The perfume is obtained
not only from the petals, but also from,
the stalks aud leaves. These give n
peculiar scent, which adds greatly to
the delicacy of the perfume Of tho
petals.

months for planting branches of the
old trees. Wedding. pruning and digging

they are full grown and repay the labor

The discovery of the delicious altar

cess Nour Diihan was strollinS through
the splendid galleries of her palace
with her betrothed the Mongolian
Prince Djihanguyr) and noticed in the
rosewater basins about the passages
an ugly, yellowish oil floating on the
surface. Orders were instantly given
to remove the unsightly fluid. when It
was discovered the perfume was also
removed. Thus the virtue Of the essen
tial oil was found out, which is still
called in Persia Altar Djihan."
