Perfumed Beds.

There is nothing very novel, the un.
Initiated may think. about perfumed
beds, for every one knows how good
housewives have for generation
prided themselves on their napery, and
that one OF their special little fads
was to place lavender bags among the
sheets in order TO add little to tho
luxury OF the sleeper. But when per.
Tuned beds are talked OF nowadays
something is contemplated which was
unknown to the old,time housewife.
Now between the mattress and the
sheet there is laid a scented pad-a
hin quilted affair. which has one lay
er OF cotton freely sprinkled with the
lavorite sachet powder-which causes
the whole bed to smell deliciously OF
roses, violets. or whatever may be the
chosen perfume.
Pillows are also opened and sachet
powder Is sprinkled among the feath.

rains come. as is expected In nearly
all localities. so much the better and
so much larger the crop

curious fact. too. is gradually becom'

impregnates the soil with that won

growth OF crops even though a great
supply of moisture Is lacking. This.
indeed, seems to be the compensation
Of the dry farmer. Denied by nature
the abundant rains of heaven, perforce
he must cultivate. cultivate. cultivate.

cultivate much less and would there

GARDEN IN THE ORIENT.

garmented Moors come In the cool OF
the evening to sit and listen to ancient
stories that they know by heart, or to
music that was old when the pyramids
were new, or perhaps to look at
dancing girl or two taking soft steps
while they smoke their narghiles; yet
that garden is nothing more than a
series OF arches unfolding walls be-
yond walls, toned faint. mysterious
yellow that is not yellow. but white,
and yet not white. but rose. In the
middle Is pool of water in a stone
basin that looks blue because OF the
intense sky overhead. and that SHIN

walls. In a corner stands mighty
