to mythology the name derived from Ia the

Another myth about the birth of the flower says
that Jupiter caused the first volets to spring

for poets to give names and human. attributes
to plants but the beauty loving Greeks went
farther along the path OF fancy They invented
human originals for their favorite flowers and
made beautiful legends to account for the trans

story OF the birth OF the hyacinth another Orien-

name. who was much beloved by Apollo and
Zephyr. He preferred the warm. steady affection
of the to the itful love of the wind. This
made the passionate Zephyr wildly jealous and
caused the plotting of a terrible revenge. While
Apollo and Hyacinthus were playing quoits, which
was favorite game with the GODS Zephyr saw
his awaited opportunity He made his rival the
slayer of Hyacnthus by blowing the gods quoit

named 1t for the rainbow, but the
Egyptians lay special claim to the

SOM. 1t may be that the flowers
whispered to him then that his des-
tiny was to lead his people to the
promised land. The ancient Egyp-
tians placed the iris on the brow OF
the sphinx and on the scepters of
their monarchs, and among all the
eastern nations 1t has ever been the
symbol of power. Another land that
highly honors it is France, for 1t is
the veritable fieur-de-lis that figures
on the arms of this country. But
there is a most beautiful legend that
makes the iris a sacred flower as
well as national emblem. The
story tells that it was trembling,
agonized witness of the crucifixion.
When it heard the anguished cry,
'My God. my God. why hast thou
forsaken me?" it sobbed out the
vow. 'Henceforth will perpetually
mourn, and, lest man should ever

The fair spring hossoms which Mother Earth

tell about the tulip. that bright favorite of Orien-

on the sensational. Its notorious career has been
freely discussed among the less brilliant flowers,

dispositions. resent the tulips regal bearing and

flowers
But the tulip we'll the other blossoms
that talked about, will probably be welcomed
even more cordially than of old into the churches
