ENGLAND'S WAR OF ROSES.
Gondon Sketchl

This is the time of year when the
wars of the roses compete with sum-
mer maneuvers in strenuousness. For
the cult of the rose Is by no means the
idylic and soothing occupation imagined
by the uninitiated. AS matter of
fact. the higher gardening appears to
rouse the worst passions, and pride
Vaingloricusness, envy, malice and
hatred are rife among those who WELD
the garden hose and indulge in an ex-
cessive love for plots. parterres and
herbaeeous borders. The man or wo-
man who can raise" monster Karl
Drushkis. for instance, becomes at once
the target for malice of the whole dis
district in which they reside. I have
known persons of unimpeachable
morals to purloin each others seed
lings.
A common device among amateurs is
to send their head gardener to spend
the day in the pleasaunces of a rival
and thereby gather ideas-and what
else shall be left to the imagination. A
too pretentious pergola has been known
10 cool, not only its owners, but a life
long friendship with estimable indi-
viduals on a neighboring estate. If
Midas aspires to become q justice of
the peace he must forbear to flaunt his
~ahids under the nose of the lord lieu-
tenant of his county. But the rose.
above ALL is the flower which incites TO
envious passions. 1t is not true that
by any other name it would smell as
sweet. 1t is beautiful word, lovely to
say. good to write, suggestive to read.
1t is redolent of creamy arms and Grim
son wine, Of raptures and garlands, of
nuptials and feasts. The rose is the
