filled in and adjournment deferred until
the ceremony Of induction could take
place.
When the credentials We're placed in
Senator Scott'S hands at 3d., or seven
teen minutes after the train from Charles
ton reached the station, he arose and
presented them to the Senate, announcing
that Mr.. Elkins was present and pre-
pared to take the oath. He escorted the
new senator to the platform. where Vice
President Sherman administered the oath.
Mr.. Elkins then signed tie book required
for identification purposes, was assigned
to seat at the rear OF the democratic
side and introduced to a large number
of his new associates.
The new senator closely resembles his
father, only being of smaller frame and
stature He is well set up, rather pale
and with a slight trace of badness. He
is smooth shaven. Probably not the least
UNIQUE and interesting feature of Mr..
Elkins' investure with the senatorial tOSa
is the short time he will have to serve.

method has the advantage that 1t pre-
vents the cutting up Of the lawn into
two parts and therefore spelling what
should be a harmonious picture. Where
it is necessary to have a walk upon a
lawn anywhere besides the entrance it is
generally sufficient to place flat stones
IS inches by Il inches. about - inches
apart, in the lawn sufficiently below the
surface to allow the mower to pass over
them This method provides a dry walk
in wet weather without spelling the unity
of the lawn. There always appears to
me more harmony or. at least. less dis
cord. in making garden walks of brick
instead of cement. and it seeds of thyme
are sown over the brick walk they will
cerminate in the interstices and yield
delightful fragrance at every step. The
best species for this purpose is ThymuS
serpylum citriodorus, which is evergreen.

In mapping out any scheme of plant
ing for the front yard the first two ques-
tions to be considered are whether we
wish to produce the chief effect from the
windows of the house or from the street.
In the ordinary city yard there is not
room for an effect from both positions,
and as it is important in any case to
mask the junction of the house with the
ground. in all cases excepting the larger
gardens, IL rs DeltcI " pant dSdiioI lhS
house and leave the remainder open. The
planting of some species Of climbing
plant against the house walls should al
ways be the initial step in harmoniZing
the building with the lawn
Evergreen climbers have the advantage
of being effective throughout the year,
and they admit of formal treatment when
necessary to conform to the architectural
features of the building. Where there is
2round enough it is possible to produce
picture which is effective both from the
windows and from the street. but gen
orally one has to go to the suburbs to get
sufficient space for this purpose. Before
having a house built most people consider
will design something which in a greater
or less degree combines utility with
beauty 1t is not however. generally. but
exceptionally, that the services of a land
scape architect are thought necessary to
design an artistic garden. without which
no one can be said to have beautiful
home. although he may have beautiful
house When a garden designer is en-
poyed it is too often after the house is
completed, whereas the best results are
invariably obtained when the designers OF
both house and garden come onto the
scene together.
AS little as a few feet way or the
other frequently prevents making the
best of the garden possibilities. Very
often the position of the front entrance
TO the house necessitates cutting I'D the
garden into parts by the carriage drive
or walk, and therefore the opportunity
for making a united. harmonious picture
is forever lost The effect under these
circumstances is the same as If Il land

B. Elkins, who died only four Gays be-

formation the Senate has ever witnessed.
At one minute after midnigh' Sunday.
January s, Gov. Glasscock OF West Vir-
ginia designated Davis Elkins as senator

done because the signature Sunday

Young took the document and boarded a

Washington. A swift automobile was

randa is invariably on the front-laWn
side of the house. When the entrance is
on another side callers do not distuI b
guests or others who are sitting upon it.
No harm can possibly result by consid-
ering the possibilities from artistic
landscape point of view before fixing the
position Of the house, and especially the
position of its walks and driveways. Ii
is generally too late afterward.
x x
The reduction Of the possibilities for
beauty in consequence of the Landscape
architect being called in too late is also
frequently exemplitied in the ease of adj
dltions and subdivisions. From tile mere
point Of view of dollars and cents, real
estate owners are often very short
sighted in not realizing how greatly they
could Increase the value of their prom
erty by a comparatively small expendi-
tufe IhlS was remarkably proved a few
years ago when eighty houses We're erect
ed upon an estate near New York which
were to be sold at S.. .O10 each. without any
planting. The owner, however, before
seiilnS any had all the gardens laid out
IN an artistic manner at a cost of only
S-UO Tor each house, the result being that
he had no difficulty in selling, them for
sio,COo each In other words he increased
.i1e vaiue oI each house by. 5000 as the
result CT laying out additional 500,
Whlle at the same time the artistic value
was increased beyond Price
- Is no oouDt obvious to most people
that when a garden has been laid out
and planted the picture is not perfect, as
II Will take several years to grow to the
extent OF its possibilities, but Of course
this fullness of development is in the
minds eye of the designer before a plant
was put into position Unfortunately.
however, it frequently happens that want
of knowledge in caring for a we'll de-
signed garden prevents the beautiful pic
ture OF which the foundation was laid
by the designer ever becoming an ac-
complished fact
Sometimes even worse happens. What
would be thought of a man in charge of
a gallery of paintings who called in a
sign painter to touch up some old mas
ters? Vandalism of that character is per
maps impossible. or at least improbable
but II II ever happened 1t would be no
worse than men in charge of private
grounds or public parks destroying the
work Of. for instance, such a master as
Frederick Law Olmsted, sr The van
dalism which in this latter connection
has taken place is only possible heeause
those in charge had not sufficient artistic
knowledge or feeling to recognize works
of landscape art when they saw them.
The mere mentioning of the above few
of the mistakes that are from tins ta

rules. models or fashion, the less it be-
comes an art and the more a manufac-
ture. There are, however, certain general
principles which must be understood be-
fore anything artistic can result These
may perhaps be best indicated if few
of the ways in which they are frequently
violated are pointed out.
The fact must be borne in mind that
garden may contain number of beauti-
full flowers. but at the same time may
not be a beautiful garden. Because a
plant looks pretty in a pot we cannot
create an artistic garden by taking d
number of pretty plants in pots. nrns or
boxes and sticking them about the sur
face of the lawn. and if the plants are
placed in the ground all about the lawn
the resulting effect is no better. If one
wishes 10 make garden a museum of
plants it is another matter, but even with
this idea il is possible to do something
in the way of grouping them in an artis-
tic manner.
\ garden is illustrated which is entirely
given up to growing roses, having no
lawn. and the result cannot be spoken of
as beautiful. Something might be said for
it by way of excuse if the roses We're
well grown, but they are crowded to-
gether in such manner that the result
is ugliness without excuse. Another front
yard also contained nothing but roses,
but there We're only four Of them. and
fhcse We're well grown. the perfection of
