cAkDlED FRAGRANT FLOWERS,
This Ii One Of the Latest Develop

This Ii One Of the Latest Develop
ments of Luxury I'm England.
One of the latest developments OF
luxury Is said to be the caudying Of
fragrant flowers. The notion is not al
together new, for yiolets have been
made into confections for the palate.
as well as into bouquets for the olfac-
tory organs, from time 20 time for a
long period. says the London Globe
At any rate 1t seems that the fash
ion has got. a new impetus of late, and
candled violet is coming to be regard
ed as an acceptable 'sbonue bouche' to
be presented to lady. There is also
we are told, a demand for sugared rose
petals. which Is being catered for by
some enterprising artists in sugar. 1t
can hardly be pretended that flowers
made into sweets" are Of any medici-
nal efficacy, though damask rose leaves
have long held recognized place in
the materla ,medica.
Whether the violet has any therapeu-
tic qualities does not appear. though
the leaves (not the hower) bave just
now some eputation-outside the med
zeal faculty-as cure for cancer. The
best that can be hoped for, If flowers
are to be eaten as well as to be seen
and smelled, is that they may In all
cases prove to be innocuous. 1t Is a
nice question whether the perfume is
always a safe guide.
Perhaps the modern craze is, after
all, only form of luxury. A candied
violet or dish of rose leaves cunning
ly prepared for the tea table could not
possibly enter into the category Of
cheap sweets for the million.

An interesting account of a day on
the battlefield in front of Petersburg,
Va, is furnished by Comrade G. G..
Burlingame, Company f, First Massa-
chusetts II. A., in communication
from 143 Archwood avenue S. W.,
Cleveland, Ohio.
ION the morning of June Is, 1864.
about 8 O'Clock, the First Massachu-
sets III. A. was drawn up in line of
battle to charge the enemy's works
over comparatively clear field of
about quarter of a mile to the works
Of the Confederates. In fact, before
got nearly there I .ound it was a right
smart distance, as the Johnnies would
express it. / knew what was coming,
for our regiment had made a change
two days before. Well, I will not pre-
tend to say what was going on along
the line, but l will relate it as l saw
It
Colonel McAllister, of New Jersey
regiment, or perhaps he was command
err of New Jersey brigade, was stand
ing within five feet of me talking to
some of the boys. He said:

an hour and a half ago in Petersburg.
'srhere was considerable commissary
used that morning, and whoever order
ed that charge and the one four or five
hours later ought to have been COM

him to approach his prey.
The silzen threads which help tt
ensnare SO many beautiful birds are q
serious annoyance to the traveller wher
riding or driving through the iess-fre
quented forests. As they continually
strike the face one Is reminded of soma
fiendish motor trap on the Surrey
roads.
The bird-eating spider Is much small
er, although not less ferocious In ap
pearance than the famous tarantula.
The body of full-grown tarantula is
as big as a hens egg and on IN average
it gives from twenty to forty yards OF
silk, the weaving of which was expect
ed at one time to prove very consid-
edible industry In some Of the Aus
tralian colonies. The silken output OF
the bird-eating spider Is greater in pro-
portion.

n buncn OF brtxht ones that Dug hi
to Enjoy Life IL Anyone Does.
Who among us has the most fun
nowadays? One can only guess, but
guessing on such a question Is some
fun in itself. We guess Uncle Mark
Twain has fair amount of daily sport
He is a very kind man, and finds many
opportunities nowadays to do public
services of benevolent sort to great
advantage. The papers, as we write
say he Is going to preside at a meeti. le
for the benefit of the blind. He does
such things often. and makes very
good speeches on such occasions and on
all occasions when he speaks at all
To exercise the gift of discourse to
edification is high pleasure. Mark
does 1t vocally and by word of pen.
His command Of good. and also of bad
language is fluent, comprehensive and
exact. He practices an art of which
he is master, and he INDUCES the Inn
pulses of benevolent spirit OF course
he has a good time. And. Of course,
President Roosevelt has a lot OF fun.
Action and reaction Is the rule OF ply.
sizes. but 1t is not the rule of him. He
has the exhilaration OF perpetual ac-
ten without any considerable reactions
that anyone ever hears Of.
ThoTas Edison must have fun, too
The processes of inventive thought must
be exceedingly interesting. especially
when they pan out as well as Mr.. Ed.
sons processes do. He has the pleas.
ures OF the imagination added to the
joys that come from searching after
truth and getting clamps on it. He
makes money, too, but that to him Is
an incident and troublesome but rec
essary depression from the pursuit of
happiness. Luther Burbank. the plant
wizard, must have vast deal of fun
of sort not unlike Edison's. Burbank
began work In pillow factory. and kept
his wonderful mind ON the improvement
of machinery just long enough to make
some money with which to undertake
the remodeling Of the vegetable world.
Then he invented new potato, and
made little more money and moved TO
California, where he opened plant fac
tory. Anyone who does not know of
the marvels he has done should read up
about him. There is joy, of course, in
creation. else things wouldn't have
been created. Burbank must have tast.
ed that JOY in abundant measure

The Republican party Is now half
century old. In twenty years it will
nave reached the allotted three score
years and ten, and in Philadelphia has
been celebrated the fiftieth anniversary
OF the birth OF the body that has. with
only a small interruption, dominated
the country's affairs since 1860. With
all questions OF partisanship waived, 1t
Is an occasion we'll worth commemorate
Ing, for few events in American history
have played larger part in the ma
TONS policies than the formation of
the only political body that was to gain
strength enough TO cope with the Dem
ocrats.
The Republican party has been a
mighty factor in the history and devel-
opment Of the country in the half CEN
fury which has elapsed since the first
National Convention, and 1t was a hap
py thought to hold golden jubilee
In the old hall where its first declara-
ton of principles was enunciated and
Its first national candidates were NOM
mated. 1t was a rare occasion for a
review of its remarkable achievements
and to take cognizance of its present
status and future work.
A National Celebration.
Though the celebration took place In
the City Of Brotheriy Love, it was NOT
a local event. The Pennsylvania State
League Of Republican Clubs had the
event In charge, and co-operated with
other prominent Republican bodies al.
over the country.
1t was fortunate circumstance Of
the anniversary that the building in
which the first convention met is still
standing. 1t owes this preservation to
the fact that it is given over to music
1t is known as Musical Fund Hall, and
Is rapidly approaching a centennial OF
active service.

that the Republican party denouneed

the chief magistracy. While the con-
vention Of the then infant party, which
assembled at Musical Fund Hall, June

mental capacity, or patriotism to any
of It's successors, 1t was one OF the most

the slavery issue, then the large ques-
ton of the constitutional rights OF
Congress to undertake internal inn
provements, and finally the then moot
ed problem concerning the building Of
a railroad to the Pacific Ocean.

for the presidential nomination were

The delegates had not been chosen by
any settled rule, and it is interesting
to note that there was no attempt at
any apportionment of representatives
based on the population of each State
or any effort to limit the vote of each.
Pennsylvania cast 81 votes. New York

was represented, as were also Della

Republican party was the successor and
tae lexatee Of the old Wing aad Free
Soil parties. and there were several
other factors prominently concerned in
its inception. From the old Free Soil
party came such noted leaders as VIII

The remnant of the old Wings went
into the new party bag and baggage,

KING FREDERIK AT HOME.


The new King of Denmark, Frederl:
VIII, begins his reign rich in the low.
and respect of his people. He is as
democratic a sovereign as even Den
mari could desire. and is possessed OF
that last blessing of public men--a
wonderful memory for faces. When
Jacob Riis was in Denmark in 1904,
says a writer in the Outlook, he was
invited with his wife to dine at Char

prince, and the crown princess.

American minister and his wife, who
were also invited.
Charlottenlund lies in the forest just
outside Copenhagen. on the beautiful
shore road. We hardly knew we were
halfway there when we wheeled into
the palace grounds, and the door of
the carriage was yanked open by lack
eys who swarmed to help the ladies'.

could draw breath door was thrown

The crown princess came forward with

The crown princess looked at me G
