Iris, goddess OF the rainbow and the
messenger Of Juno, she for whose accom-
mediation the Shining rainbow bridge was
let down when she wished to traverse the
pathway from earth to heaven, has be-.
iqueathed not only her name, but the
wonderful colors In which She enveloped
her form to one OF the falrest and sweet
est Of sprlrg g flowers.
& Tho adoption Of the iris, or fleur de lys,
as the national emblem Of France dates
back to tho days Of Clovis Of France,
and Is linked with tradition. 1t Is said
that an aged hermit Of Joye-en-yalle
saw miraculous light stream one night
into his cell, and an angel appeared to
Kim, holding shield of wonderful
beauty; its color was azure, and on 1t
were emblazoned three fleur de )ys that
shond like stars. The hermit was COM
manded to give the shield to Queen.
Clotilde. Scarcely had the angel van
ished when Clotilde entered and receiv-s
ing tho sacred shield. bore it off to her
husband whose arms were everywhere
victorious.
The rame flsur dc lys is said to be a
corruption Of flower Of Louis. or Louis's
flower, King Louis VII. having thickly
charged the national French standard
with the iris blossoms. which henceforth
we're called after him. Another explana-
ton is that the name means fIeur de
luce or flower of light. because 1t seems
always associated with the smile Of the.
sunshine. q
The IRIS is both a wild and a cultivated
flower. It's ralrtow tints are lovely, and
1t has delicious odor. From time i'm

Viewed From the

TIE American girl by comparison with
l.er sisters across the Atlantic, shines
with rcsplendent, If somewhat hard and
calculating brtlliancy. She is much moro
arrogant than an English woman who Is
