Temple Garden Roses,

Perhaps the two most famous
flowers in history are associated
with the Temple gardens, for, ac-
cording to tradition, it was in these
gardens in 1880 hat the two lead
ers plucked the red and white roses
which became the badges of the
rival houses of Lancaster and York.
The gardens were for centuries IA
nous for their roses. Among their
floral curiosities one finds in the
accounts for 1900 an expenditure
on two perimic box trees and won
ders what a perimic tree is until
one remembers the custom of trim
ming box trees in a symmetrical
or "perimetric" fashion.-London
Chronicle.

When the days work is done the
Russian moujik's recreations are of
tho simplest. Perhaps he dances
or plays the concertina or sings
some melancholy air. But when a
wedding has to be celebrated and
the priest has duly united the cou-
pie the peasants give themselves up
to the enioyments of the occasion.
The writer well remembers peeping
into the brightly lit rooms of a tiny
two roomed log cabin where such a
revel was in progress. The evening
was a hot one. In n room, so
small that only four couples could
with difficulty wheel about, dancing
was in progress. The perspiring
couples had made up their minds to
enjoy themselves. There was a kind
of determined-to-se e-it-through look
on their faces, and evidently they
had great staying powers. In the
same room, closely packed and lin
ing the walls, were onlookers watt
ing till a couple should drop out to
take their place in the dance.
The second room was laid out
with refreshments. A side table
groaned with all kinds of dishes
dear to the peasant palate. One
knife, one table napkin and one
fork did service for the party, but
some scorned even these aids and
picked up here a sardine, there a
hunch of melon or tore at a hard
sausage. One thought of the cave
dwellers and wondered what refine
ments they possessed when they
ate. Vodka was being served out by
the father Of the bridegroom, and
it was having its effect.
One tall man was pointed out as
the station master Of a tiny wayside
station near by. He was ~conspicu-
GUS as being better groomed and
less savage in appearance than his
fellows, and n heard afterward
that the seductive charms of a we'd
ding feast made him forget on that
evening his duty as signalman. A
freight train waits two hours be-
fore a signal at danger, and then
for the signalman is quaffing his
vodka and dancing at the wedding
the train proceeds. The driver
reports at the next town. Result
two months afterward the station
master for neglect Of duty in his
capacity Of signalman is degraded
to 8 charge at a smaller station.
Surely such things happen in few
other countries than Russia-Rus-
STA, the land Of a great future, but
whose inhabitants in the main are
only awakening out of sleep

Due Precautions.

In town in Georgia there was an
old preacher whose knowledge OF the
world was not wide nor deep, but who
conceived 1t to be place where. II
one should trust his fellow men, he
should at the same time keep an eye
on his own interests.
One hot day he pulled off his coat
and preached a vigorous sermon. I'M
der the pines, in his shirt sleeves. At
the close of the open-air service one
Of his admirers approached him and
said, regretfully:
Il don't suppose that you knew that
the editor Of one Of the big New York
Sunday papers was here when you
pulled off your coat"
II reckon l knew 1t well, for I'd
been told of It," said the preacher.
calmly Il don't believe he's as bad
as he might be, and anyway, put my
coat on the chair close by and had It
right under my eye all the time.

DAINTY CHATTING DISH LUNCH
Menu by Inventive College Girls Gives
Hint for Impromptu
Meal.

Here Is the simple but delicious
menu served by party of seven girls
In New England college recently,
as a relief from the monotonous Sun
day night supper. 1t was cooked in a
chafing dish and might well be used
as an impromptu luncheon.
First came little pork sausages,
cooked until they fell to pieces for
very toothsomeness. With these went
dried beef and peanut butter. both
served as sandwiches, between two
crackers, little sweet pickles and
picked onions.
Then appeared large apples, scraped
out till only a thin shell remained,
filled with chopped apple and walnuts,
and covered with salad dressing
Finally, chocolate, with two marsh.
mallows dropped in each cup. and
home-or rather college-made cakes
and fudge completed the meal.
Some OF the dishes are, Of course.
out OF season, but substitutes arc
easily found. For the sausage one
might have eggs baked or shirred
both Of which are easily prepared in
q chatting dish. For the apples a good
substitute is tomatoes prepared In the
same fashion, chopped with green pep
pers, topped with an olive and served
In lettuce leaf.
The cakes may be the little cookies
OF oatmeal -four, butter, sugar and salt,
which any Scotch person knows how
to make.

FLAX is PROFITABLE
Wonderful Paying Proposition In
Western Canadian Prairies.

So much is heard of the wheat, oats
and barley grown in the prairie lands
Of western Canada, and so much has
been told Of the wealth to be made
out of the raising Of cattle on
the succulent and rich grasses
of those fertile plains, that
most important product has been al
most lost sight of, Flax. Recent press
reports advise us that on one of the
last boats to clear from Fort William
cat the head of Lake SUPERIOR for
Buffalo. there were 24l,O00 bushels OF
flax valued at $5S3,220, and on another
boat leaving the same day there were
2SS.O 900 bushels valued at SI20,0OO.
There has been a big demand for Ca
madam fax this season, and the lake
movement has been very heavy. Flax
is always sure crop, and gives 10
the farmer who is anxious for quick
return after getting on his land, the
chance he is looking for. There is
opportunity for thousands yet, on the
free homesteads of 100 acres, and
many Of these are available within
short distance of the lines of railway
that are already built or under con-
struction, either on the main line or
branches. Besides these free grant
lands there is an opportunity TO pur-
chase from railway and land COM
panies at reasonable prices.
The display of western Canada's
grains in the straw as well -
threshed grains and grasses recently
made at st. Louis was an excellent
demonstration of what the country can
do 1t proved splendid as an illustration
| OF the resources OF that vast prairie
country, which during the Last wear
! has again proven its ability to pro
| duce excellent yields of wheat, oats
and barley-and fax. Not only this
! but the splendid herds OF cattle are
a source OF large revenue. There IL
