the second Virginia convention, March
20, ITO, closed my eyes, picturing the
scene as it must have appeared that
day SO long ago. There were all the
great men of the day, including George
Washington, Jefferson and many 9TH
ers, some of whom had travelled long
distances to be present, filling the pews
to overfowing, even to the window
lodges outside, and in their midst an
orator delivering himself of words Of
fire, even as did st. Paul at Athens of
old. Suddenly a voice broke my reverie
and the stiffness Of the church. It was
our old guide repeating the words Pat
rick Henry uttered a century and
half ago, quietly and deliberately at
first, but as he neared the end of the
speech even the immortal Patrick
Henry himself, could he have heard,
need not have been ashamed Of the
humble old orator, who, as he pro-
gressed, became more impressive:
The war is inevitable-and
let it come repeat it, sir, let it come
It is vain, sir, to extenuate the matter.
Gentlemen may cry Peace! Peace =
but there is no peace. The war is
actually begun. The gale that sweeps
from the North will bring to our ears
the clash of resounding arms. Our
brethren are already in the field! Why
stand we here idle? Is life SO
dear, or peace so sweet as to be pur-
chased at the price of chains and slav-
cry? Forbid it Almighty God! know
not what course others may take, but
as for me; give me liberty, or give me
| death!"
Patrick Henry's life was full to the
brim. AS governor Of a state that ex-
tended as far west as Illinois. as one
of the most eminent jurists in Virginia
his time was well taken, and he was
glad enough to retire early to Red Hill
During the last years of his life Pat
rick Henry's fame drew many visitors
to Red Hill and he welcomed all with
gracious hospitality. In 1874, Gov
Henry Lee appointed him United
States senator to fill an unexpiret
term. This he declined as he did also
many other flattering offers.
One June morning in 1899, Patrick
Henry realized that his end was near
and drawing his silk cap over his eye'
he prayed earnestly for his family, fol
his country and his soul, then his grea
spirit departed even as he sat in the
three-cornered chair.

ARTISTIC ARRANGEMENT OF
FLOWERS IN THE HOME
BY e. VAN RENrHuYsEN.

Dark corners of a room need light
Ing up, and light-colored, brilliant flow
ers never look so well as when standing
out against a half-light. Yellow is an
exquisite bit of color for such a cor
ner.
Let all the flower and foliage for
home decoration be fresh and, how
ever simple their form, they are lovely,
not only as graceful objects, but as
suggestive of something more beauti-
full still.
Avoid fantastic-colored or shaped
vases. The simple beauty Of the flow
ers Is lost in such a holder. Clear
glass and the soft green's of Bohemian
make are most useful receptacles. Let
the lines Of the vnse or bowl be simple
and flowing and, however cheap the
substance Of which the vase is made.
we shall not err.
Strive to produce the effect of the
flower when growing. and the error Of
cutting Off the lovely grey-green stalks
OF daffodils and cramming them into
fiat dish, or putting a handful of vio-
lets into a tube specimen glass will be
impossible
There are many little contrivances
nowadays that help wonderfully in the
attractive arrangement of flowers. The
little japanese frogs with holes in
their backs that sit fat in the bottom
OF bowl and hold out primly and
gracefully a few precious stalks of
bloom are to be had for a few cents,
and are we'll worth all they cost.
With such an arrangement three or
four daffodlls with their golden glow
can bring a bit Of sunshine into a
dreary room and add n beauty that an
Rrmful Of exquisite roses crammed
into an ugly vase could never give.
Color harmony In flower arrange
ment should be well thought out, not
only In regard to the relative position
OF one flower with another, but also
with the room In which the vase is to
have place.
COlors that blend out-of-doOrs, be
cause of the gradations in shade
caused by atmospheric effects and the
relieving sprays Of green, would pro-
duce discord when massed in a room
but inharmonious effects can be avoid
ed by observing n few general rules.
Wall pockets holding pussy willow
in the spring. or bits of copper beech
or gorgeously turned autumn leaves il
the fall, are graceful objects and Civ,

don
Now that flowers can be secured tn,
year round, the problem having beer
solved by the gardeners after years o
probing, some sort Of bloom SHOULD
have daily place in our homes. Tn,
intimate association with such lowell
ness gladdens the heart and qJ.cken
the senses and inspires all that is bes
within us.

Fireproof Paper Possible.

Documents written on paper made
from asbestos fiber, with inks prepared
from the nitrates of iron and cobalt,
have withstood a red heat for two
hours without being damaged in any
way. No damage resulted until the
intensity Of the heat was exposed in
it for ten hours. 1t is expected that
further experimentation and study
will result in the perfection of paper
and ink practically indestructible by
fire.

Varied Uses of the Lemon.

Baked lemons for colds and fiaXseed
lemonade as used by New England
grand mothers are well known. Many
a diva threatened with hoarseness beats
up the white Of an egg with the juice
of lemon, with sugar or honey, for a
quick and sure remedy. And for head
ache q famous writer often takes the
juice Of one whole lemon squeezed in
a cup of strong black coffee.
California and Florida both produce
wonderful lemons, which in size and
quality compare with any imported
from the tropics. The sweet lemons
of Spain, which are eaten as freely as
oranges in the southern part of Spain
and in Morocco. where they also flour
ish,, are delicious, indeed. In Italy
southern France and Sicily the lemons
attain an unusual size.
