Last year, at an expenditure by the
association of less than $4,000 for all
purposes, including putting the land
in shape and the cost of free seed to
those who could not afford to pay for
it, the amateur gardeners realized
more than $4,000 from their product.
Many Of the gardeners were thus
saved from becoming public charges,
new life and vigor were impaired to
many others, while in a number OF
cases the life in the open proved just
what was needed to save from the
grave sufferers from tuberculosis.
A mother and three children, de.
serted by the husband and father,
were almost destitute when they
learned that a garden could be Sc,
cured. Bravely they went to work on
their little fifth-of-an-acre tract. The
mother fell sick, but the children
would not give up. They were able
to support the home table, while they
sold more than hundred dollars
worth of provisions, and put up for the
winter. twelve bushels of potatoes and
fifty quarts Of canned vegetables.

chauffeur beside her.
John Winthrope was we'll built

muscles of an athlete, he was enough
to make the heart of an impression
able girl palpitate abnormally. And
when pretty girl like Miss Forbes
was really in love with him, then his
proximity was sufficient to bring
bushes of delight. Winthrope's one
great fault in Miss Forbes eyes was
his innate bashfulness. "
DO you know" she whispered con.
hdingly in his ear, Il believe that
you are in love with Miss Peabody"
Winthrope's face turned red under
her twinkling gaze, but, although Miss
Forbes was apparently greatly de-
lighted at the result of her words, she
was secretly dismayed. Was it pos.
sible that he really was in love with
Miss Peabody? For some time she
had thought that his attentions to her
mistress were more assiduous than was
actually necessary. It was with a
view to finding out his real state OF
feeling that she had made the sugges-
tion as to his love affair

Again Miss Forbes felt a sinking at
the heart. So they were nothing more
than friends!

THE CAMEO PORTRAIT.
I'm Days of Ancient Rome.
Treasure Brought by Crusaders.

FavOrites I'm Days of Ancient Rome.
Treasure Brought by Crusaders.
From the London Daily Mail.
The earliest safety pin came from My
cenae, and so did what is probably the
earliest existing cameo. It is little re-
cumbent lion carved in amethyst, and he
reposes to-day in the British Museum.
The cameo is to sculpture what the
miniature IS TO the easel picture. Il is a
small sized low relief carved upon a hard
stone or gem. The onyx or sardonyx,
which Is 10 be found in various shaded
layers. was the fayorite material for a
cameo OF old. the foundation OF this
semi-precious stone being ideal for the
purpose.
The ground was left in one color. the
raised design in another. the design being
generally cut from an upper layer OF
white So in more modern days has the
shell cameo been carved.
The Roman ladies of Rome's imperial
days wore cameo ornaments in their hair.
The mobiles wore them on their armor and
as shoulder brooches or fastenings to
their cloaks. Cameo cutting became then
a great art. showing the rarest delicacy
and cunning Of hand.
A notable cameo gem OF this period rep
resents a Roman triumphal procession.
The spirited horses that are drawing the
chariots have prancing legs OF bee.
But portrait canoes were first favorites
in the days Of ancient Rome. as also after
the Renaissance were portraits and clas-
sic heads. Medusa was very often chosen
as a subject because Of her tragic face and
her winged head were serpents writhed
among her tangled locks. One of the
most glorious Of historic canoes Is a
head OF Medusa carved in emerald and
framed IN gold and jeweled enamel, a
veritable gem.
When England's warriors returned from
the wars of the Crusades they brought
with them. among hosts OF other treas
ures from the East the first canoes ever
seen here. Our Good Queen Bess. who
loved to have her portrait taken, sent for
a cameo cutter from France, and she was
duly sculptured In turquoise and cut num-
erous times in onyx.
Her turquoise presentiment, exquisitely
set. is now In the Victoria and Albert
Museum. II is lent by Miss Elizabeth
Wild, in whose family It has been pre-
served ever since the time of the queen
herself who was present at tire time Of
the christening OF its first owner
But it Is the Old-fashioned shell cameo
which has become so dear to American
woman collectors and is being so much
sought after here. When delicately cut
it should have a delicious creamy soft
ness. a precious richness of effect An
onyx cameo, on the other hand, is bright,
glistening. brilliant and IT is far more
durable. A portrait carved IN onyx is in
fact a more lasting form OF presentment
than any, being practically indistructible.
