SHE RECEIVES A BOUQUET.
When Fluffy Ruf4es and her aunt at
Blennerhaven Green
Had spent a rather quiet week, with calls
from Mr.. Dean,
Who took them "skyward" several times
with Traddles left behindl,
Fair Fluffy to her aunt remarked, ats
come into my mind
THAT if | had some fresh air children upI
to spend a week
To have good fun in various ways they
wouldn't have to seek"
When Fluffy planned her aunts onsen
was sure to follow fast,
And SO a bunch Of children came before
three days had passed.
When Fluffy met them at the train they
rushed at her pell nell.
''VVell, this is nice. Pm glad you've come.
hope you're all quite WE'LL"
"You bet we areI" "Geel amt dis sranT"

Dear me" said Fluffy to her au1s
They'll have a lovely time"
An can we pick der flowers, miss2"
Pick every one you see,
And if you want TO please me you Will
bring a bunch TO me-"
The children climbed into the stage, all
ramping wild with JOY;
Each palid, skinny little girl. each pale
faced city boy.
Now, mex the inn where Fluffy stayed
there lived a millionaire
Who had a garden filled brim fun with
roses very rare;
And when the children reached thessDot
and saw the pretty sight
They shrieked and yelled like maniacs to
show their keen delight
, To please 'the lady" was their wish
r. Lets make a big "bookay"
AN give it to her when she comes"
Sure MikeI" "Dar's rightl'' Hoo

They picked and picked the roses rare.
J they picked with all their might.
When Fluffy Rufaes came she wondered
if she saw Alright.
"F7ere, Miss.-for you'll" an urchln cried
and passed her the "bookay."
She rook the flowers in her hand anc
gazed in blank dismay.
The children hadn't left a single rosebud
in the place
Just then the millionaire came up anc
met her face to face.
"Ohl Mr.. Bullionnaire. I'm sur the chill

"Thorm> and Orange Blossoms" :"

English customs and class distinc- lions are thoroughly exploited in that superb comedy drama, "Thorns and Orange Blossoms, a dranatzatjon of Bertha M Clay's world famous novel. The plot deals with a young English girl of poor parentage and noble man. They marry, and the snbsequent sorrow and disgrace should be a por- tentlous lesson to every one. The conl- edy is unctuous, genial and always rtil-provoking; the heavier scenes of pathetic strain meet with adequate treatment, all combining in one of the most ingenious and onjoyably per feet dramas of the day. The cast and scenic equipment is the same that created such a favorable impression during the recent Chicago run. and will be seen here October under the direction of the Rowland Clifford Amusement Company.
