EAsllY GROWN FLOWERS.
There Il a Wealth TO Choose From
and q List of Those That
Richly Repay.

The beginner should try to grow .
few varieties of flowers and learn their
habits thoroughly, for In thoroughnsss
lies success. He should not construct
q garden In fancy out OF the highly
colored plates in a seed catalogue and
expect to produce It in reality. But
he should choose his plants with re-
gard to the place he will grow them
and study their needs carefully.
There Is wealth to choose from.
For early spring flowers, for instance,
there are the bulbs Of tulips. jonguils,
narcissi. hyacinths. crocuses, snow
drops and sQuills. It Is best to plant
them in the fall; then as soon as
spring begins they begin to bloom.
and produce a surprising amount OF
color. The crocuses. snowdrops and
squills may be planted in the lawn.
and moved down. for they flower very
early, and will continue to bloom for
several years. Jonquils and narcissi
may also be left in shrubbery, or In
grass, where they are not cut, and they
will bloom many years. The bulbs
may also be planted In the early spring

A SHOWER FOR THE BRIDE
A Novelty Shower with Various Con-
veniences Are Bestowed Up
on the Bri6e-to-Be.

The showers for brides now include
nearly every article imaginable, but
one Of the newest things is to give a
has said before, only very near and
dear friends of the bride-elect should
be asked to these affairs, for the bride
should not be asked to accept or peo-
pie to give things that are not prompt
ed by heart full of love.
The affair in question was SO called
because each friend tried to think of
some thing that the honored guest
would not have and they consulted
together, so there were no duplicates
There were ten guests and here is a
list Of what they took: A bag of silk
to cover the hat while travelling and q
case Of postal cards, one addressed to
each girl; pad of paper and bunch
Of stamped envelopes; a late maya
zine with the especially good articles
marked; a new book greatly enjoyed
by the giver.
Then there was a box Of candles
Zone bride said she was all ready to
give her first dinner party and dis
covered she did not have candle In
the house,. a set Of dinner cards
ready for the names. also dozen lace
mats to go under skerbet glasses and
dozen dainty bonbon and nut hold
ers. Then there was box of assert
ed pine. hairpins and dear little
workbasket marked For your guest
room" And one girl brought a bot
tie OF library paste. as she said 1t was
something she had wanted and for
gotten for month. The afternoon
was the merriest one possible. for
these articles were all hidden and the
bride-to-be had to hunt and open each
package. Tea and cocoa were served
In the drawing-room with waters and

TREE-DESTRoYIN0 RIVER.
Western Stream That Chews Up Veg
etable Growths Along It's
Banks.

The ella river enters the Colorado
just west of Yuma. and we crossed Its
angry waters through maze Of eddies
and whirlpools through which immense
quantities of driftwood were whirling
In mad race. Escaping the worst Of
the turmoil, we reached the town at
racing speed and made triumphant
landing, with half our journey &C.
complished, writes g. G. Copp. in Har-
per's Magazine.
At most places along the shore the
river had reached the line of older
growths and was leveling the larger
trees by hundreds wherever a bend Of
the river directed the force of the cur
rent against the far shore. Trees ten
inches In diameter and 20 TO 80 feet
high we're constantly topping into
the Unsuitable river.
The fall of these larger trees was
always graceful. The first intimation
OF 1t was distinct SILVER that ran
through the entire tree, but was most
marked In the upper branches; a mo-
ment later the tree would bend grace
fully forward as II bowling to its
enemy. An instant's pause and II
would sink slowly into the rushing
waters that had reachcr to and loos-
ened tho inshore roots.
Tree after tree Of this larger growth
would start down the river broadsids
to the current Slowly at first II would
roll over and over, tangling its
| branches Into q great skeIeton wheeI
rolling faster and faster ms the
branches became more impacted and
presented fewer projecting points to
catch and hold a moment in the shsl
lower reaches. Eventually the
branches woulG be worn on In such
progress, leaving only tho tougher
roots to retard II. Then the denuded
tree would give up the struggle, and
whirling into the limo OF least resist
ance, would float head on down stresn,
until caught by the spreading roots In
some shallow.

FOR MECHANICAL PURPOSES

In rural Maine, when one has an es-
peciaily hard or disagrceable task to per-
form, one calls in the neighbors." At
such times. says the Bangor News, the
work performed is done without money
and without price, except that the host
must provide abundant refreshments, both
nourishins and refreshing. At such
times the winter supply of firewood is cut,
the timber felled and piled, the frames Of
buildings raised. Often the host has
trouble to find intoxicants, Maine being
o dry state.

tered the city agency at Bangor. Straight

Hartje Described.
AS man Hartje has been rather a
negative character. That is as man
among men. In business he stands
well. His promises and contracts are
fully lived up to. He pays his debts
and treats his fellow men fairly. He
is close in his business dealings, but
on the whole is regarded as business
man Of considerable ability. Socially
he has cut little figure. He Is fond
of fine horses, but he has never been
known to take his family into his en-
joyment. He Is, according to the
statements of his wife, the kind of a
man who will spend $1,000 or $4,000
for fine horse and wonder at his
wife's extravaganza in spending $40
or SIS. On anything that Augustus
Hartje wanted he would spend any
sum. He is that way in business.
He Is that way with his employees.
He hires them for the least he can get
them to work for, and works them to
| tu6 ilullt.
Mrs. Hartje Is granddaughter of
old John Scott. in his day one of the
most famous railroad men this coun-
try ever produced. Andrew Carnegie
is said to have gotten away with the
big end of the Scott fortune, but the
facts are that John Scott was a spend
thrift and man who led a life which
was calculated to use up two or three
fortunes. There was always tragedy
in the family. It went down like the
Pyncheon family in Hawthorne's
House of Seven Cables" Bank
ruptcy, violent deaths, insanity and
other tragic happenings carried off
different members of old Johns own
family and those of his connections.
A fatality seemed to follow the name,
and 1t appears as IL that spell still
exists, for this beautiful young wom-
an has met with the most terrible
charges any man ever brought against
q wife.
Good Woman and Mother.
She Is a good woman. II Is not in
tended to try her case here, but mere
ly to paint her picture for the benefit
Of our readers. She has been as fool.

Is now generally known. Is engaged In
n battle against the millions OF Au-
gnssus Hartje, who Is suing Mary
Krnney Scott Hartje, daughter OF MT.
Scott, for divorce and has named a
negro as correspondent. Hartje's at
torneys say they will prove the rela-
cians of this beautiful society woman
with the man who cleaned out her sta.
Eses and groomed her horses. On her
part, Mrs. Hartje accuses her husband
or brutality beyond the imagination of
ordinary man.
IL Is such case which promises to
.drag its length through the Pittsburg
courts within the next few months.
and the amount of public sympathy
which Is being given to this woman,
who Is fighting a millionaire for her
. children and her name as faithful
wife and mother, is one of the most
remarkable things about 1t all.
Hartje Not Popular.
Not one kind word has yet been
spoken of Augustus Hartje since the
case started. II he has any friends
who believe his statement, they are
Eseping 1t to themselves The negro
who made the affidavit which was, in
tended to strip from this woman the
last shred of public sympathy and re-
spect, surrendered to the officers Of
tho law and confessed that he had
perjured himself, that his statements
were false. that he had received about
800 for telling his story and was to
have been paid $1,000.
Mixed up in this alleged conspiracy
are leading business man Of the East
End Of Pittsburg, one of the most
prominent physicians of that fashion
able section, and the Hartje brothers,
Augustus and Edward G.. his brother
