telling of new growth and broader
horizon.
Out on the old arbor, the rough and
scraggy grapevine is sending forth
little gray tendrils, reaching farther
toward heaven and away from the
earth that hides its foothold How
blithe1y does nature echo forth her
yearly message to every waiting heart
her message of resurrection, joyous
activity, high-mounting aspiration!
Her myriad voices cry through every
sense, to touch and penetrate the spir.
1t with gladness and good cheer New
readings from the Gospel of eternal
hope are seen on every side, in the
growth of plant the unfolding of leaf

are full of these shy spring darlings-
violets, dandelions, adders tongues

a nameless wildling, all hurrying gayly
to deck the earth and celebrate the
Eastertide.
Certain flowers and plants have al
ways been set apart as sacred things
and from the very dawn of history we
hear of flower-decked affairs and
wreaths of sacrifice. The heather

lady's fingers, lady's smock, lady's
tresses. Virgins bower, or clematis,
begins to bloom in July, the feast of
visitation, and is at full bloom at as
sumption in August.
The lily was first found in connec-
ton with the Virgin in the story Of
her ascension to heaven, and it orig
mated probably in the second century.
According to this legend, 1t was three
days after the burial of our Lords
mother that the apostles visited and
opened her grave and found it filed
with fragrant, spotless lilies. Since
then these matchless flowers have been
called Madonna lilies" or flowers
of the Virgin" The common white
lily of our gardens, that blooms in
July, and is the sweetest and most
graceful of all flowers, might well be
called holy" No one seems to know
its origin. 1t is never found wild in
Palestine, nor can we find just where
it grows without culture. But we see
1t in the faded pictures of old Italian
masters and Netherland painters,
made long before the discovery Of this
New World.
Nearly all of our great poets have
praised this flower. Chaucer and
Spenser speak of it as mystical bios
som in their far-away gardens and
lady's bowers. Shakespeare 1t was
who first said: ITO gild refined gold
and paint the lily" and these lines
from one of his sonnets tell truth
that can never be forgotten:
For sweetest things turn sourest by their
deeds;
Lilies that tester smell far worse than
weeds
Milton loved the lily and always spoke
of 1t in connection with the rose--as
did also Swinburne when he talks of
The lilies and ianguors of virtue;
The roses and raptures of vice.
And Tennyson says Of Maud's garden
that it was
Fairer than aught in the world beside,
All made up of the lily and the rose.

spring, has one lily thought that is like
sigh:
But vanished man,
Like to lily lost, never can bloom anew
Or bring his days to see a second spring.
Shelley has the lily in his wonder
full garden along with his sensitive
plant. Wordsworth often praises it.
Burns mentions it frequently. Tenny-
son has lovely lily thoughts; but our
own Longfellow draws the prettiest
picture of maidenhood-
Bears a lily in thy hand
Gates of brass can not withstand
One touch of that magic wand.
James Russell Lowell always comes
near to the heart of things and left us
more than one sweet lily poem and al
fusion, and our minor poets all tell
their love for this perfect specimen Of
natures handiwork.

born in April, and it was of Aprirs

The interest Of the religious novel lies
mainly in the fact that it reflects more or

at the moment, that it collects into one TO-

WOULD KEEP SENIOR QUESADA.
Cuban Minister Popular with the Al.
thorities at Washington.

While there can be no expression on
the part Of any official of this govern
ment, there is very strong feeling in
all circles in Washington that the re-
ported intention of the new Cuban
government forming to transfer Mr..
Gonzalo de Quesada, the Cuban min
ister to France and Spain, and substi-
tute some one else for him, will not be
carried out 1t is no eXaggeration to
say that members of the American
congress, including some Of the most
prominent leaders, say that instead or
Mr.. Quesada's usefulness here being
at an end, it is at it's height. He has
been in Washington many years, hav-
ing in the first place been member
of the famous Cuban junta which did
so much for the independence of Cuba
under the most trying circumstances,
and at a time when the influence or
the Spanish legation here was para
mount in the counsels of the senate.
He has served his country as min
lister from the formation Of the first
government of the Republic of Cuba,
and he has done so with much ac-
ceptability. He has been very close
| in his relations to President Roosevelt
and will be in similar position with
reference to the Taft administration
should he remain.
