FLOWER fire.

Some Plants Will Emit a Mysterious
Radiance at Times.
The most wonderfully might almost
be said spiritual-attribute of flowers is
neither their beauty of color or form
their fragrance. but, strangely
enough, a mysterious radiance that
sometimes surrounds them, writes j.
Carter Beard. 1t is strange that this
flower fire is SO little known and 50 sell
dom noticed.
The best time to watch for and to
witness the emission Of flower fire is
just after sunset Of q warm day, when
the atmosphere is perfectly dry and
clear. On the contrary, If the air is
dense or the day has been rainy moth
ing Of the kind a be seen.> The light
emitted from flowers is sometimes con
tinuous, but oftener, perhaps, repre-
sents itself in flashes and chickering's
like the sparks from a piece Of paper
that has been electrified. The duration
of the light varies according to the
state of the atmosphere and the sort Of
flowers that are under observation.
