10 Arranae Flowers.

Here are five golden rules which
should be observed by those who often
arrange flowers Use plenty of foliage.
Put your flowers in very lightly. Use
artistic glasses. Do not put more than
two or, at the most, three different
kinds of flowers in one decoration
Arrange your colors to form a bold
contrast or, better still. soft har-
mony. The aim of the decorator should
ne to show off the flowers-not the
vases that contain them; therefore the
simpler ones are far preferable to
sven the most elaborate. Glasses for
"a dinner table should be either white

the very sudden decline in the flow
Of our wells is due to loss at the
wells. This loss may be either through
the pipe at the surface or around tn ,
pipe below the surface into porous

teslan wells should be ca ~efu'l st d
ed by our survey in order that the
proper precautions may be taken O
conserve this great resource If care
ful investigation shows that TIE large
amount OF water escaping through the
tube at the surface is quantitati ely
important, laws regulating the size o.
wells and the flow of water must ae
7assed and enforced. At present no.
moe than per cent of the water sup
1lied by the artesian wells is used.
However, If investigation proves that
much more water leaks into porous
| beds below ground than esoaped ct
The surface, then great efforts Will
have to be taken to save our ar
esian water supply, since leaks usual
