Long before the present drastic spir-
1t concerning enemy aliens showed it
self In Great Britain, q shop door In
Bond street carried written large the
announcement that mo person Of Ger
man birth, whether naturaIized or not,
Is permitted to enter these premises"
It was Of course In the nature Of an
outer and visible sign Of an inward
and patriotic grace, but one wondered
on reading that notice how on earth
the owner Of the premises could tell
whether his order got 0beyed or not.
Curiosity, however, did not go so
far as to impel inquiry In fhe matter,
but now that the spirit Of the Bond
street shopman Is shared by the whole
nation, 1t might be quite worth while
for officials Of several Of the govern

DaHLIA IS MAKING FRIENDS
0nes Humble Flower Rapidly Being
Brought to High Position BY the
Master Florists.

The hrysanthenlum is not to have
everything its own way In the world Of
flowers. No doubt the chrysanthemum
show gets more Of the nmelight Of
publicity than a dahlia show. but the
gorgeous blossom that was once called
1.-THE prim old maid Of the flower world''
Is having It's shows or exhibitions
just the same. and the reports have it
that they are attended by large crowds.
The dahlia show has become regular
thing in MANY cities and 1t is said that
there are persons who can work up
quite as much enthusiasm for the dah-
lin as for the "mum." The dahlia,
from very simple and home-loving
flower. has become somewhat Of a SO.
cial pet.
1t was not many years ago that the
dahlia bloomed in the yards Of small
homes. Sometimes it grew in the front
yard and sometimes in the back yard.
It might be remarked here that the
yard" especially the "front yard"
has disappeared. Nobody now has a
front yard. Nobody who is anywhere
near up to date would have such q
thing about the house. The piece N
renl estate which we used to call the
front yard has become the lawn"
Well. formerly the dahlia grew only
In the yards Of humble homes. It had
net broken into what is called $50
ciety." Fashionable grounds could
not think Of admitting such a plain,
hardy and highly colored citizen Of the
flower world as a mere dahlia. It did
not belong to their set. But the merit
Of this flower and the high state Of Gull
ture which it has attained under the
guidanceSan tuition Of master florists
has forced the prsudest gardens to
open their gates or let down their
fences. The dahlia now holds up its
stately head among the exclusive set
Of tuberoses. gladiolas. carnations and
the like.
