MR.. .BURBANK'S DAILY
BLOOMING ROSE.

Tho Country Calendar one Of tho
most beautiful OF American magazines,
contains in It's current number lovely
picture af tho Burbank rose, which, ,in-
der favorable conditions, blooms every
day In the year" II
SO says tho magazine, land when ono
considers all that Mr.. Burbank has ac-
comrlished in tho realm OF flowers and
fruit, ono is inclined to put faith in the
daily blossoming rose"
The thought arises TINT what Mr.. Bur-
bank has done another might do. vir-
ginin women have already demonstrated
their ability In the line Of flower farm
ing, and have made 1t pay. What a
| charming occupation Is offered to tho
| woman who has enough ground and

| garden on her own behalf
Judgment In selection Of varieties, then
careful planting, tending, guarding from
excessive cold, grating and patience must

lines Of beauty, grace or utility can be
accomplished without the expenditure OF
much thought and cnre and labor.
But, In the end the rose garden would
pay. Women who have hitherto attempts

tion mostly to vlolets, tulips or daffodils.
the spring flowers seeming to be their
favorites. Roses arc always in demand.
and IL the rose-grower has her lirnita-
tions, and concentrates her ambitions on
one or two varieties, like American Benr-
| ties and Bride roses. she could be sure Of
a fno demand for her flowers at almost
any season of the year.
| Rose culture Is such interesting work
| for women who live in the country. 1t
brings women in touch with the nflu-
cnces that are purest and wholesomest
and that are best calculated to expand
and broaden their natures. Roses, like
children, are very apt to educate all who
| come into close contact with them.
In France many women make the Gull
tivation and sale of flowers a means of
support Nowadays when women are
SELLING new opportunities for occupa-.
ton, 1t would seem that rose culture
might most reasonably hold out to them
the means of profitable and delightful
work and recreation, something to repay
them In full for all they give, for roses
arc grateful enough and will certainly
not withhold their love for tho woman
| who loves them.-The Editor.

Pretty Things

A young girl who had a number OF old
books has just been fixing up her
Froom, and many OF her books havEe-oros-
somed out IN new bindings. An old set
of Scott's novels she covered with gay
tartan plaid. The plaid was put on the

her shelves, as neat row as can be
imagined.

public" she bound In brown Holland.
This idea was not original. A copy Of
Crawford's Roman Singer" had hard
time In It's earlier days. but now In
cased In piece OF Roman sash ribbon,
no spots on the cover are visible.
For Kipling's plain Tales From the
Hills" she utilized a small square Of
Oriental-lookings silk and made very
pretty book.
IA Study in Scarlet" she appropriately
bound in bright red. "Jinriksha Days"
was covered with pretty japanese
paper napkin. Ramona" fayorite
book had its worn binding replaced by a
gay handkerchief. and a wcll-thumbed
volume OF Poems and Ballads from
American History" was covered with the
stars and stripes.

ton, an original girl who owns camera

the proverbial cottage for two, or per-
haps you might even know that Tom
Harris has to borrow he money for
those frequent theatre nights.
Would you like to have even the love-
lest of rosebud lips ask you every hour
whether you were sure you still loved
her? If you were q real strong, sensible,
virile chap, you would probably consider
that your original declaration Of love
should cover the entire ground. After
that momentous occasion you would pre-
fer to let deeds rather than empty
phrases express your devotion.
Would you feel entirely comfortable in
the company of a girl who was always
looking for hidden meanings in what
you said? OF course, being a man, you
would probably say56what you thought,
without the reservation peculiar to the
feminine mind, and you would wonder
why the dearest girl in tho world was
always taking offense at some hidden
thought in your simplest sentences. The
.quiverlng chin, the clinging demand for
protection, the plea to kiss and make
up" are nll very well-for7a timc-but even
the most loyal chap may find himself
wondering whether this oversensitiveness
before marriage may not lead to curtain
lectures and hysteria afterward.

less blind, but there are moments when
