Parental compsnionship.

very pleasant sight and a hopeful
sign, too, is where father and son
are friends. Neither can have a bet.
ter one, if he is a real one, nor more
enjoyable one if they understand one

is more health, outlook, joy and profit
in that sort of companionship than
they can form in the busy walks of

Neither the authority of the father
nor the respect of the son need be sac

blend together. when they occupy the
middle ground of friendship and be-

Getting Out Of LIGHT Place.

When the late William Window
secretary of the treasury, dropped
dead at chamber of commerce din
ner in New York some years ago, just
as he was speaking, there We're but
two reporters present, says the Sat
urday Evening Post. The others had
written their stories, sent down their
copy and the text of the speeches, and
gone to more interesting places. In
one newspaper office the news did not
get in until a minute before time for
going to press. Two columns of Win
dom's speech We're in type in the form.
AS it was too late to make over and
catch the mails, an enterprising ed
itor wrote: The Hon. William Win
dom dropped dead at the chamber of
commerce dinner last night. If he
had not dropped dead he would have
spoken as follows" Thus it stood un-
til they could make over.

Scene of Deadly STRUGGLES.

1t is doubtful if there is any portion
OF the earth Upon which there are so
many deadly struggles as upon the
earth around the trunk of a tree. Up.
on this small arena there are struggles
fierce and wild; here nature is red
in tooth and claw When a tree is
small and tender, countless insects
come to feed upon it, Birds come to
1t to devour these insects. Around
the tree daily are almost merciless
struggles for existence. These death
struggles occur not on'v in the day-
time, but in the night Mice, rats and
rabbits destroy millions of young
trees. While at their deadly feast.
many time have they been surprised
by hawks. and then they are at a
banquet where they themselves are
eaten. The owl. the faithful night
Waterman of trees. often swoops down
at night, and as a result some little
tree is splashed with the blood of the
animal that came to feed upon it

DUE TO A MOTHERS GRIEF.
How the Blanche Ferry Sweet Pea
Was Brought 70 Perfection.

There is an interesting story told
by Paul Kirk In recent issue Of the
fiousekeeper, concerning the acciden-
tai discovery of the Blanche Ferry
sweet pea. The story is this:
he daughter of a farmer in Jeffer-
son county, N. Y, married a quarry
man who neglected her. forcing her
to live a starved and miserable exis-
tence In small home over some lime
stone lodges.
After while the woman became a
mother, and then death came and
claimed the child The mother took
the body back to her own childhood
home-one of the most beautiful in
New York-for burial.
When the funeral was over, the
mother, stricken with grief, gathered
from the old farm place a few seeds
OF the old Painted Lady sweet pea.
These seeds she carried away with
her to the poor little home by the
stone quarry. There she planted
them.
They lowered, and the mother
saved some of the seed for another
seasons planting. From year to year,
in this manner, the flowers were per-
petuated and the memory of the child
was kept beautiful After Is or 20
years the flowers had undergone a
change-had taken on a new beauty,
as fine as the sorrowing mothers de
votlon. They no longer resembled the
Old Painted Lady blossoms. The thin
poor soil, with its large element of
lime, had dwarfed the vine. but in
compensation had given more album
dant flowers larger and brighter col
ored
Mr.. Tracy, of the government de
partment OF agriculture, while looking
after some seed crops in the vicinity
saw and admired the flowers, learned
their history. secured some of the
seed. and later sent them out to the
world as the Blanche Ferry sweet
pea.
Out OF the sorrow and hardship of
the lonely mother by the quarryside
had come about the development of a
flower OF exquisite beauty, which has
since brought pleasure to millions and
added beauty to countless homes.
