THE CHEROKEE ROSE.
Romantic Indian Legend of This Beau
tiful Flower.


There is a beautiful romance cor
nected with the Cherokee rose. A
young Indian chief Of the Seminole
tribe was taken prisoner by his enc
mics, the Cherokees, and doomed to
torture, but fell so seriously i'll that 1t
became necessary to wait for his resto-
ration to health before committing him
to the fire.
AS he lay Frustrated by disease In
the cabin of the Cherokee warrior the
daughter of the latter, young, dark
faced maid, was his nurse. She fell in
love with the young chieftain and,
wishing to save his life, urged him to
escape. But he would not do so unless
she would flee with him.
She consented. Before they had gone
far, impelled by regret at leaving
home, she asked permission of her
lover to return for the purpose of
bearing away some memento of 1t. So,
retracing her footsteps, she broke n
sprig from the white rose which climb
ed up the poles of her fathers tent
and, preserving it during her fight
through the wilderness, planted it by
the door Of her new home in the land
Of the Seminoles. And from that day
this beautiful flower has always been
known throughout the southern states
by the name of the Cherokee rose

A SCRAP OF PAPER.

Wealth to a Poor Widow.


Some yeas ago a poor widow kept a
small shop in Berlin suburb. One
evening as she was serving a customer
a workingman stepped into the shop
and asked permission to light his pipe.
Drawing piece of paper from his
pocket, he twisted it up and. after
lighting his pipe. threw down the spill
and walked off with a word of thanks.
When sweeping the floor the follow
ing morning the widow took up the
charred PAPER out of idle curiosity and.
unfolding it, saw that ii was a lottery
ticket, only a portion Of which had
been burned. She folded it up. put it
away in her pocket and had almost
forgotten it, when the result of large
lottery drawing caught her eye in the
paper.
She then remembered the crumbled
ticket in her pocket, and on producing
it found. to her amaZement and de-
light, thct it had won Il prize of 500
600. Shv claimed the prize. and. al
though she advertised widely for It's
