uNcoNeENIAL FLOWERS.
Mignonette and Roses, For Instance
ZEfII Not Mix

xiii Not Mix.
The florist frowned as he took up an
order for d table decoration. That
will never do he muttered. After
calling up the customer and suggest
ing a change, he told his new clerk a
few things.
'You must never take an order that
calls for a mixture of mignonette. and
roses" he said. "a centerpiece Of
those two flowers wouldn't last half
through the luncheon. They simply
wilt one another / don't know why,
but they can't get along together.
1T is true of many flowers. Pansies,
for instance, last twice as long if they
are not combined with any other flow
er. and the same may be said of yio-
lets. JonquiIs and daffodils, on the
other hand, seem TO get new lease
of life if you combine considerable
green with them. Carnations will go
all to pieces If you combine them with
roses, although the roses do not seem
to be affected.
ct is more striking in combinations
of green with flowers. If you try to
use an entirely different type of To-
liage from what the flower is used to,
it won't last so long. So I never FIT
feathery foliage with lilies of the yE'
ley, for you know its natural foliaG>
is thick leaf. l never use thick leaves
with carnations, for their foliage is OF
the feathery type. 1t isn't as though
the flowers fought, but they seem tc
grieve at being misunderstood" New

A Lure For Cook Robin

Two coins clinked together give so
good az imitation of the robins metal
lie note that this device has long been
employed in England to attract the
welcome "harbinger of spring" For
merly male robins were shared by the
clinking of two copper pennies near a
dummy bird. The dummy was perched
on a twig smeared with bird lime, and
cock robin, attracted by the sound and
suspecting a rival, flew at him with
blood in his eye. This is in violation OF
the bird laws in the United States, and
no one who lives where robins make
their home in confidence is likely to
give the odd trick so unpleasant a
finale. The clinking coppers serve
much more agreeable purpose as q
means of rendering cock robin socia

THE COMMISSION is AN ISSUE

In the course of his speech in
the Howell Smith debate at Rome
on Saturday, Mr.. Smith asked Mr..
Howell whether or not he would
Railroad Commissioner
Joseph NJ. Brown, and Mr.. How
ell, according to the report in the
Atlanta Journal, declined to an
swer. 1t was a shrewdly put
question, because it involved the
carrying of Fulton county.
IfMr. Howell had said he would
not reappoint Commissioner Brown
he would have admitted that Mr..
Brown hadn't fulfilled the expecta
lions of the people and wasn't Civ
ing satisfaction. That wouldn't
have been satisfactory to Mr.. How
ellis railroad friends.
If he had said he would reap
point him he would have slapped
Atlanta in the face, as it were. He
would have virtually said that At
lanta's demand for port rates was
unjust. Hence he took refuge in
silence.
But in asking the question did
not Mr.. Smith practically admit
that Atlanta was asking for some
thing to which she WASH tentitled
The purpose of his question was to
put Mr.. Howell in a hole, as it
were. He knew that Mr.. Howell
would risk the loss of Fulton coun-
ty if he said he would reappoint
Commissioner Brown.
Atlanta's Freight Bureau asked
for port rates that would give her
a great advantage as a jobb1ng
point. The commissioners refused
to grant such rates. Mr.. Hoke
Smith was the counsel for the
Freight Bureau. He was safe in
asking the question of Mr.. Howell
because he is on record as saying
he would remove Commissioner
| Brown if he could.
| We don't know whether Mr.
Smith advised the Atlanta Freight
Bureau to demand port rates that
would give Atlanta an advantage
over the other jobbing cities of th'
states ports, but it is fair to as
sumo he did if he was its counsel
OF course the claim is made nov
that the rate Atlanta asked woult
be given to all points in the state
but the records do not show any
thing of the kind. And there i
good reason for thinking that i
Mr.. Smith had the shaping of tn
. commission he would put men o.
it who would make port rates tina
would give Atlanta the advantag
she wants.
Indeed, there is ground for say
, ing that one of the things some c
the supporters of Mr.. Smith hav
in view is an advantage for Altar
ia in the matter of freight rates.

Onion soup ana Fame.

Membership in the French academy,
the hoped for reward of Gallo writers,
was once closely associated with onion
soup. During the restoration in France
a club was formed under the title OF
"Diner de la Soupe rOnion." This or
ganization contained twenty members.
1t met every three months, when the
dinner was opened with an onion soup
The club was to endure until every as
sociate was elected to the academy
This was accomplished in 1916, when
the last banquet was held.

THE CAUSES OF FAILURES.
Lack of Capital the Most Prevalent
 Reason for Crashes


 Some interesting figures have recently been published in Bradstreets showing the number of business failures last year in the United States and the causes to which they are attributable. It is stated that there were 1,2O1 ,s62 concerns engaged in business in 1901, ana that of these 1064S failed, or con- siderably less than 1 per cent of the whole, a lower percentage than has oc- cured in any year since 1882 save in the year 1900.
 Bradstreets classifies the causes of failures under eleven heads. and gives also the number which 1t regards as at- trbutable to each cause. Of the eleven, Hack of capital" takes the lead as most prolific in inducing failures, those as- cribed to it numbering 3,323. ''Incom- petence" comes next on the list, and is made accountable for 2,023. and then specific conditions" by which is meant such things as strikes the corn crop failure, the assassination of President Mckinley. the lowered price of cotton at the South and similar events of a disastrous tendency. To these 1,755 business failures are traced. Next in number were failures arising from Fraudulent disposition of property" and amounting to 1,154
