St. Augustine and His Flower

st. Augustine of Hippo. the great
doctor of the church, whose festival
falls on Aug. %, is a sadly neglected
saint among modern ritualists and even
occasionally confused with his name
sake, who insulted the British bishops.
Yet he Is pronounced by Hooker with
out any equal and regarded by Har-
mack as "the first modern man." He
has been better honored in the floral
world, for to him is dedicated the
goldenrod, or woundwort (Solidago vir-
ga-aurea). Old Gerard, with whom
this was favorite remedy, tells us
that goldenrod fetched high price as
a foreign herb until discovered grow
ing near London, when the plant was
neglected. He adds the caustic COM
ment, This veriAeth our English prov
erb, Far fetcht and dear boughte is
best for ladies' or for fantastical ply
Sitions." Before tobacco the golden
rod also furnished snuff for our medi-
aeval forefathers. - Westminster Ga

Miss Bayard Injured

Miss Anna E, Bayard, the steno-
grapher, was seriously injured yester-
day afternoon BY the discharge of q
small cannon, whose charge struck
her in the back Of the head. The
cotton and other material contained
in the canon struck her with such
force as to almost knock her down
"A portion Of the cotton penetrated
the scalp, smashing two Of the combs
that she wore in her hair and driving
piece of one of the combs into the
scalp. A physician was called and
sewed up the wound. The cotton and
piece of comb were also removed, the
operation causing great suffering, AT
a late hour last night it was said at
Bayard's home that she was resting
as we'll as could be expected and no
serious outcome of the matter is
looked for, Immediately after the
accident friends went to the aid Of
Miss Bayard, and in their haste to
find a resting place for her, took her
into one OF the undertaking parlors,
That fact apparently started rumor
that she had met death.
