hind high walls and all abloom with
roses and love-in-a-mist and all the
other quaint, old-fashioned flowers
that grew only where women love to
tend them, It is place of peace, that
garden, but its watcher saw it in the
poets knowledge of the cost of beau
ty when she set down the blessings
of the loneliness and quiet of that
place SO like your own. With tina.
knowledge she wrote its final line.
"Men die in Flanders to give me
these

Did she not speak of your garden. too,
and for you? Have you not thought
that men, boys and our boys, have
gone overseas ready too die, if need
be, in Flanders and France, that we
women may have security, and the
beauty of life, and ultimate peace :?
Are you making their lives more GER
tain? For you can do this, merely

separated them, and when men ex-

splendid Dane slowly raised his head

geant held up his hand. His voice was
low and quiet:
"I1l give the OWner five hundred
dollars for those dogs" he said.
