Grass the Main ThinC.

In large lawns such M shrubs
as the SNOWFALL, the Persian lilac, and
the Japanese ounce, are excellent.
Besides these there are the mock
orange, the golden bell, the spiraea
v~anhouten, and the pearl bush. The
~dogwoods n evergreens work in well
in the decoration of a large lawn.
OF course these are not all that are
needed for a beautiful lawn, for in fact
the important thing Is a thick. we'll
kept grass sod. the carpet, If you
please, upon which to set the scenery.
The cannas, hollyhocks, coleus and
geraniums are necessary. but should
be used only as Borders, or some Of
them in porch boxes. R~ose-bushes
are often desired, and the harder "a
rieties should be obtained and plaeed
together in rows or beds, as single
~rosebushes 10 grow to limbs and
appear unsightly.

Shrubs for Small Lot.

If the lot is small, say 40 by $50
feet, choose the low-growing shrubs.
such as the spiraea of either pruni-
folia, thunbergIi or bumalda families.
These are hardy. low-growing plants
about three feet In height. The spi-
raea thunbergii has very fine, light
green foliage, with little white flowers
scattered along the branches. The
spiraea bumalda, OF the variety an
thony waterer, is a very free towering
shrub, with crimson flowers. 1t is COM
pact and low in growth. Spiraea pru-
nifolia has dropping branches, with
double white ~daisy-like flowers. The
leaves of this variety assume brilliant
hues in the all.

Titles m ENGLAND.

Forty or fifty years ago few people
in England had titles. There were
only a few decorations which entitled
their owners to put the prefix Sir
before their names. We all of us
looked down with lofty contempt upon
the counts and barons that were so
plentiful in continental countries. Now
we can do SO no longer, for probably
there is no other country in the world
where the traffic in titles is SO open
and SO indecent as in England. What
the number of decorations is 1 do
not know, and I imagine that few do.
Every few years some new one is ere
ated and an Englishman with a taste
hat way can easily manage to ex-
hibit himself covered with metal disks
and bits of ribbon like some success
full COW at an agricultural show. These
embellishments may 1atter the van
ity Of their wearers, but they do not
increase the respect that is felt for

BEAUTY SPOTS THAT COUNT
Prsciated Than at a Rail-
way Station.

There is probably no place where q
garden is more appreciated by the
public than at a railway station. Folks
when out travelling have their eyes
with them; they are open to all kinds
of impression, and such as at home
would in passing be barely noticed
and ever remain entirely unObserved,
if met on travels, are welcomed with
an interest highly profitable. The
beautiful has added beauty; the part
ly hidden and insignificant becomes
obvious; the eye searches greedily for
new impressions, when we are out
~a-traveling.
This, then, is probably the funda-
mental reason for the railroad gar
dens. Culture has been given to 9TH
erwise ugly situations; trees have
been planted along ri~ght-of-way
fences; vacant spots have been rams
formed from barren cinders into beau
ty spots of lawns and flowers; hot
platforms and sidewalks have had the
spotted shadows of trees thrown over
them; the cheerless has been trans
formed into jubilant symphonies OF
cOlors and cool shadows, inviting, in
deed, when summer burns the travel
er's back.

VARYING Prices of Lobsters.

Lovers of Holsters ought to get a lot
Of comfort out of a recent paragraph
in the famous old Kennebec Journal,
which says that the c~rustaceans are
dirt cheap" However, the Journal
adds, they are not as low in price
as in the old days, when they sold
six for 25 cents, but the price has
fallen to 16 cents a pound, which is
decidedly different from the figures
that were being quoted early in the
spring. Then they we're being bought
alive for SO cents a pound from the
fishermen, and the price in Boston and
New York scared to 80 cents a pound,
and, in some cases, beyond"

A Poor Proposition.

Frank A. Munsey, the well-known
publisher, is noted among his friends
as a close reasoner.
A New York reporter submitted re-
Gently to Mr.. Munsey a proposal for
a new magazine on novel lines. Mr..
Munsey proved in a closely-reasoned
argument that this magazine would
fail. Then, in conclusion, he said:
COR, If the magazine did pay, 1t
would pay so little hat its publishers
would be like an editor in the neigh
borhood Of my native Mercer.
Near Mercer, Me-, lived an editor
who once printed in his weekly paper
this editorial announcement:
I'm view of the fact that we are un-
able to pay the road tax of IS assessed
against us, we have been sentenced
to a period Of confinement by the au-
thoritIes. Consequently there will be
no issue of this paper for the next
month; but, as the state will have to
board us, we figure that we shall come
out some SIS ahead"

Their Native Heath,

DR.. Eugene Fuller, president of the
American THEOLOGICAL association, eaid
at a dinner in New York, appropos of
Independence day:
1--WE must all try to be as faithful as
George Washington was. I am afraid
We have not, of late years, upheld the
reputation for t~ruthfulness hat George
Washington gave us. l am afraid
that we have published to the world,
through our yellow press and by other
means, a good many tall stories.

to a pupil:
What is a miracle?'

LONDON MUCH LIKE PARIS
British Metropolis Is No Longer a
GIoom-Enshrouded, Dlgni-
fed City.

In the old days London was essen
tally a city of ponderous pomp. Paris
In comparison appeared as a bright
hrefy beside the grim darkness which
surrounded England's metropolis.
Now, the streets of London are
brighter, if possible, thar those OF
Paris, the shops as gay, the movement
as ViVacious. Most of the plays in
Paris were considered fit only for
those who did not mind broad jests
or who old each other in a whisper
that they had been to the Palais Roy
ale. Today, the LOndOn theaters bold
ly advertise the most risque entertain
ments, there is no subject that is not
discussed, no novel hat is not read.
n it a become a well-knOWn say
ing that instead of the younger women
being restrained by decorum from in
dulging in doubtful literature, books
are now described as 'the sort of book
one would not give to ones mother to
read"-fOrt this was a girls description
OF a well-knOWn work of fiction.
Rush and hurry, hurry and rush,
characterize the life of those who are
called the mart set" The early ride
in the park, the afternoon drive and
shopping calls, have given place to
polo matches and demonstrating, mo-
tor scOrching, bridge and poker. If
you wanted in the old days to see your
friends, o could invariably find them
at a quiet, solemn lunch. assembled in
dim, stately dining rooms between 1
and 2 o'clock. Now, restaurants, ho-
tells, tea houses and Iunching rooms
are the resorts of the representatives
of the fashionable world.

 Church.

The Easter services at the various churches were largely attended and at all houses of worship excellent musi- cal programmes were carried out, and denoted that great deal of care had been taken in their preparation by di- rectors and individual and chorus singers.
