BIG CARNATIONS.
They Were Cultivated In England In
Shakespeare's Time.

A florist says that we pride ourselves
nowadays on the size Of our carna-
tons, but the florists Of 300 years ago
grew carnations three to- four inches
across. as large as any that we see.
and thought nothing of It.
"All through Spain, southern France
and Italy the carnation is the favorite
flower and has been for hundreds of
years, but along the Mediterranean
there are few glass houses. for in pro-
tected situations and on southern
slopes of hills even delicate flowers
grow outdoors all winter long and
bloom as freely at Christmas as in
July.
1.-The big carnations, however, were
not grown in Spain or Italy, but in
England outdoors during the summer
time and before glass houses were
known. They may have grown just
as large carnation flowers in Spain as
in England at that time. but in Eng
land there was record made Of the
fact and also of the size. while in Spain
there was not. Shakespeare mentions
carnations and gillyfiowers, or July
flowers, together as blooming ut the
same season. which shows that the
carnation was then summer flower,
whereas in our greenhouses it Is now
a winter blOomer. How the florists of
those days treated the plants to OBJ
tain blooms Of such size nobody knows,
for old time florists grew flowers in
stead Of writing books about them. So
all we know is that they had very
large carnations In Queen Elizabeth's
time without knowing how they were
grown."-St. Louis Globe-Democrat.

EATING IN PUBLIC.
The Varied Sorrows Of the Critical
Man Who Dimes Out.

TVou WIN OtUC6 OuIs
What chance has the diner out of
being completely happy? The mere
actions Of eating and drinking are nei-
Their pretty nor conducive to showing
people at their best. 1t Is really q
most uncouth sight to see man or a
woman stocking food. The necessity
Of being polite at the same time makes
1t uncomfortable as we'll. No sooner
have you got into conversation with a
pleasant woman than the soup in your
mustache stops all inspiration. She
despises you for your play with your
napkin, and your mustache is out Of
shape. And who can feel that the
evening is going to be what he hoped
when he realizes that his shirt front is
smirched with some relic Of the meal?
Indeed, dinner parties are really
struggle between eating and talking, a
struggle which does not always end,
as do most things, in the survival Of
the f1ttest. As one can't speak with
ones mouth full and first hunger must
be appeased. conversation and eating
60 on rather as q game, the one person
whipping up some food while the other
Is speaking and then in his turn speak
ing in order to enable his partner to
get some nourishment. To talk or to
eat might be sensible question at the
beginning Of dinner. but it is not one
likely to be asked. One is seldom sure
which is least worth sacrificing, the
food or the conversation. How much
simpler 1t would be II we fed apart
