~ "%~ Those roses are so fragrant and 10 beautiful" said daddy. ut
reminds me of the rose festival the fairies had the other day.
"The queen of the fairies told all the other fairies that they must
gather all the roses they could and have them ready for a certain afternoon
80 they did their best to gather all the roses they could. They got a lot
Of wild roses a well as quantities Of garden ones.
Every fairy had her roses n a basket made Of straw and moss and held
by pink ribbon.
when the fairy queen saw 10 many lovely roses she cried out with de-
light:
"Oh, little fairies, you always do my heart good! You have found some
Of the most beautiful roses have ever SEEN, and ! can't tell you how happy
/ am And now we will begin III rosef festival
"All the little fairies at this Joined hands. The fairies took all the roses
which they had twned into garNands and put them around their necks Then
they danced around and around, singing songs.
After they had finished each fairy stood upon a little bed made Of roses,
each a wee bit higher than the other so that it made the fairies look like
a lot OF lovely rosefa fairies going up a roes stairway.
AT the very top of all the fairy queen stood, and then began the real part
of the festival
she took all the roses't that she had gathered and threw them down, max
ing 1t look like there was a rose storm, and the fairies laughed as the roses
fell on their necks and on top Of their heads.
Then they tried to throw SOL of their roses up to the fairy queen; but
OF course, they would not go up III the air Is easily al they had come down.
After the roses storm vas overt the fairy queen said:
"I hear some children going home from a picnic, and one of them is say

HISTORIC LIES NAILED

errors concerning it are mere an
~achronisms. There is, for example, the
widely known painting of washing
ton Crossing the Delaware" and there
is another scarcely less familiar, of
the Battle of Princeton" In each of
them the Stars and Stripes are con
s~plcuously displayed. Yet that flag
was not there. The river was crossed
at Christmas, 1875, and the fight of
Princeton occurred a few days later,
while it was not until the following
spring that the flag was designed. not
until June that it was adopted by con-
gress and not until the fall of 1777
that 1t was promulgated.
There are other historic paintings,
too, which misrepresent the flag. There
is one of the Louisiana transfer cere-
mony, n there is another of the
Battle of New Orleans" in which the
flag flies bravely with thirteen stripes

stripes" which inspired Key being If

If from such things we turn to the
unconscious errors of great writers, or
to those which are to be set down-as
DR.. Johnson did with one of his-to
Ignorance, pure ignorance" their
name is legion. There was the all but
omniscient Macaulay himself in his

the degraded and servile conditions of

forgetting that at that time mental"
meant not servile, but merely pertain

house himself.
We all remember Shakespeare's
reference to the sea coast of Bohemia,

deended as geographically accurate,
since Bohemia has by no means al
ways been an inland country, but once

1t might be unreasonable to expect
to find accuracy in a "best seller" Yet
We must wonder at the years of pa

for the production of such felicities as
the placing of katydids among apple

These seem mere triles, yet it Is

Women and the Newspapers.

Indianapolis News: Dispatches from
| Chicago say that the women attending
the meeting of the general federation
of women's clubs are amazed at the
amount of attention that is being
shown them by the newspapers. But
why they should be amazed is not
clear to the newspapers or to the peo-
pie in general. Women and their ways
and their work were ever interesting
and aver commanded attention. AS
their interests formerly were scat
tered and scattering, the attention
paid to them was naturally of like ma
ture. But now that they are getting
together it Is altogether a different
matter. When hundreds Of them meet
as one organization to discuss affairs
of state 1t is not only natural, but 1t is
necessary that they should receive the
closest and most respectful attention.
ut is a significant fact" said Mrs.
Robert w. Spangler Of Twin Falls,
Idaho, a member of the press COM
mittee. "that women are being treated
significant Of the realization of the
rest of the country that the women
are acting more seriously. They are
gravely discussing weighty questions,
ranging all the way from clothes to
suffrage, and they are doing so in q
determined way that must bring re-
suits of some kind. The clash between
the conservative and the advanced
radicals in the matters sartorial is Of
no small moment, and of even greater
possibilities ia the contest between the
| women who are bound to vote and the
women who would not vote under any
circumstances.
These are only two of the more
prominent differences that have arisen

women and have p~recipitated the dis
cussion which must result in a clear
ling of the atmosphere and a better
understanding all around. The outcome
Of all this no man-and, perhaps, few
Iwomen-can foresee. The possible com
binations are yarious-to dress dare
lingly and to vote; to dress quietly and
to vote; to dress daringly and not to
vote; to dress quietly and not to vote.
There should be no wonder then
that the newspapers, interpreting the
attitude OF the country. are treating
the meeting with much seriousness,
and giving 1t a great deal of attention.

TRADE IN RArTLEsHIPs.

When Secretary Daniels found {

They gave the whole snap away. Tur-

that want to keep Greece dwarfed
complain that we are interfering in

the bargain sale is declared off.
There is sometimes advantage in
doing business behind closed doors.
America brought from England as we'll

armored cruisers from Italy and
Argentina just before war with Russia
was formally declared.
That kind of transaction needs to
break upon the international public as
a fact accomplished. But the Ameri-

provision for sale of useless battleships
though this country bought cruisers
in that way. out of the fifty millions
placed at President McKinley's dis

At that, America would like to see
Greece stronger on the sea than Tur-
key. America sympathies are with the
Hellenic kingdom, which moreover is
better minded to keep the peace than
beaten n resentful Turkey.
