WAYS TO ARRANGE FLOWERS.
Good Idea ls to Follow Nature as
Closely as Possible.

II is well to remember that all
flowers look better for loosening up a
trifle and few look well packed tightly
together. One of the safe rules to fol
low is to heed the natural growth OF
the flower whenever possible. Flowers
that grow In thick clusters are GER
tain to look well In masses, while
those that grow singly and far apart
should not be crowded. The object
should always be to bring out the
whole beauty of the flowers and to let
everything else be secondary to that.
Chrysanthemums and sweet peas
are examples OF the few flowers that
do not need foliage as a relief. Nearly
all others look far better amid green
leaves. A trailing green vine is often
just the touch that Is needed to soften
stiff arrangement. Asparagus fern
is an airy, feathery green, suitable
only for fragile and delicate flowers In
loose arrangement Wood sorrel has
delicate leaves that look well with
sweet peas and other small flowers,
but as a rule a flowers own foliage
suits 1t best.
The vases used play an important
part in the success of flower arrange
ment. Colorless, transparent vases
are always safe and sometimes abso
lutely necessary. Bowls are beautiful
for short-stemmed flowers, and the
cheaper variety are sometimes the
best. An ordinary glass fish globe dis
plays the full beauty of the stems To
far greater advantage than cut-glass
rose bowl. The colorless glass olive
bottle, going straight up and down, is
more to be desired than Opaque
vases, which hide decorative stems
Tall, slender vases are suitable FOL
long.stemmed flowers. II is said thai
the height of long-stemmed flowers
should be ~ times the height Of the
| vase.
Yellow flowers In dark blue jal
are effective, and brilliant red flowers
look well in the neutral gray jars o
some of the Japanese ware. The pur
pie violet finds its richness intensified
in pale yellow jar Pansles an'
violets both look their best in heavy
jar, preferably Of cylindrical shape,
1t is well not to mix flowers OF dii
ferent kinds and different colors.

fectiye arrangement. Some flowers
such as a chrysanthemum or rose

BRISTOL, VA.-TENN.
TOWN THAT is LITERALLY Dl.

But stu Perfect Harmony Seems to
Exlst-one May Do on One Side
Of Street What Is Prohibited
on the Other.

Knoxville. Tenn.-That. contrary to
Biblical statement, n city divided
against ITSELF can stand Is shown
most strangely in the peculiar case Of
Bristol, Va.Tenn. The town Is liter
ally divided in half by the state line
that separates Virginia and Tennessee.
One side of the main street is In the
Old Dominion and the other In the
Volunteer state.
The state line runs In the center OF
the street car track on State street for
more than a mile. A novel plan Of
evading the Tennessee Jim Grow laws
as affecting street cars was devised
when the legislature passed statute
requiring negroes to be seated In the
rear OF the ears and apart from the
whites On State street half OF car
is in Virginia and one-half In Ten
nessee, To evade this law Il is only
necessary to have the colored passen.
gers ride on the side that is running
in the Old Dominion, and by so doing
they may ride with passenger who
is In Tennessee, but who Is powerless
to compel the conductor to enforce the
Jim Crow law
There is also difference in the
marriage laws. In Bristol. Tenn. the
only prerequisites TO the Issuance OF a
marriage license are that the prospec.
tive bride be l6 and the groom rs.
while in the city just across the state
line II is necessary for all applicants
for such license, where either party is
under Fl years old, to have the written
consent of their parents or guardians.
The result Is that Bristol. Tenn. Is a
sort OF Gretna Green for clipping cou-
pies from neighborlng states whose
rigid laws withhold matrimony from
infants that are eligible in Tennessee.
However. there is a slight difference
In the price. as the license in Bristol.

not II is held gracefully. Watch the

stead OF holding the saucer with the
four fingers placed beneath It and the
thumb above the rim-as nearly every
woman does-form a half circle with
the thumb and first finger clasping
the saucer In It, and giving a slight
support with the third and fourth fin

NEW TOUCHES FOR oIRpLEs.
Small Details That viii Be Found to

Nearly every modiste has ideas of
her own with reference to girdles and
belts, which she develops as occasion
offers. and while there is no very great
latitude possible with the ordinary
frock, still many small details may be
used that give original touches to
the costume and prove charming ad-
ditions.
For example, one clever foreign
modiste takes two or three rings GOV.

around the edges. and through these
the ribbons or folds OF the material
are drawn in various combinations.
