He Beat Them.

1t was three a. m. in one of the
Broadway lobster palaces. Three
youths were seated at one of the
tables. They had just ordered IAN
other bottle" of the bubble water.
Two of them were hilarious and one
broke into song. Il tell you what
I'll do" said the third, who was the
soberest of the three, 'I'll challenge
any of you to game of ti-tat-to on
the condition that you go home If
beat you" You're on" said one OF
the gilded youths. The necessary dia-
gram was drawn on the tablecloth and
the game started. At the end of the
seventh play the sober one cried tit.
tat-to" and pointed to the three KS.
The gilded youth studied them for a
moment. Then he and his pal rose to
their feet and he, extending his hand,
said: Sir, congratulate you; you're
better man than / am" And true
to their agreement they disappeared
through the revolving doors. And per-
haps father did not receive a hurry
touch the next morning.

WHITE ROSES LAST LONGEST
Recent Observations Show That Red
Flowers Usually Have Much
Shorter Blooming Time.

1t is often remarked that in a bowl
of cut flowers containing red and
white roses the white roses will last
much longer than the red. To GER
tain extent, also, the redder the roses,
the quicker the petals will fall. Ger
tain species vary, or course, but the
general rule holds true.
For many years it used to be
thought that the principal reason for
this was that the white rose and the
light pink rose we're harder because
they we're closer to the wild rose. The
latter is generally a very light pink
in color But this explanation loses
much of its point when it is remem-
bered how readily the petals of wild
roses fall.
Recent observations show that red
flowers usually have a shorter bloom
ing time. This is because they absorb
the light. whereas white and yellow
flowers reflect it. The red poppy Of
the corn fields has a very short bloom
ing season, while the yellow poppy of
the seaside has a longer one. The
daisy and the dandelion flourish every
where in the sunshine, but there is
no wild red flower on the lawn.
So. If you wish to wear a bouton-
| Mere or a bunch of roses at your belt,
let them be white or pink ones, for
these will not drop and fall to pieces
so quickly. Or, if your table orna.
ments are to be roses. let them be pink
or white. They will live for days, es.
pecially If little salt be put in the
water. Thick-fieshed flowers, such as
tulips, are naturally less affected by
the sunlight and the red ones will en-
dure almost as long.
