Artificial EIowAra

The Japanese carry the art of arti
ficial flower making to perfection
copying with marvellous fidelity mo-
only the blossoms, but whole branche,
and even plants in bloom. They ar.
particularly clever In Initiating wis
taria, cherry and rose trees, and the
towers are so naturally made In either
cotton and silk that they deceive the
keenest critic. Great branches OF
these various blossoms are used for
decorative purposes. There is a great
vogue at present for the wearing OF
artificial flowers both with day and
evening dress. SILK and velvet dow
eTs command high price.

VIE kIIIa tha aaar

Mr.. and Mrs. F. G. Harvey Of Ten,
aiy. N. J.. had been staying a month
at Yoke Pond. Me-, and started for
home. The husband went on the trail
toward the depot, the wife to follow
an hour or two later. On the summit
OF Boardman mountain he met an an.
CRY she-bear. which went for him.
Dropping his pack he climbed spruce
tree. just getting out OF reach of the
bears claws. In his haste he dropped
his mittens. and as the temperature
was near zero his hands were badly
frozen, and he had to strap himself
to the tree to keep from falling out.
Two hours later the wife came on the
trail to the scene, and the bear left
the tree and started growing for her.
She was carrying the gun and fired
one shot. That did not stop the brute,
but the second one did, and left the
bear dead 10 feet away.-The Chris
tan Herald.
