GARDEN ROSES

A single rose is fair to see, the dollar
kind the florist sells
Viewed from an artists point of view
tale of care and culture tells
And in its slender silver cup, provides
a touch of lovely grace,
Tall, straight and perfect and precise,
a lamp to light darkened
place,
But there's a lovelier sight to see the
roses in a garden grown,
Old fashioned blooms of red and
white with all the petals fully
blown.
The florist might not call them fine
the artists eye might fail to see
True beauty in so mixed a mass, but
still they mean lot to me.
I've known this rich bouquet for years
with every summer that has
been
Always upon the table there this glo-
rious cluster have seen,
And ! can call them all by name this
red one shading almost black
Has been a boyhood friend of mine
a jacqneminot-bes known as
Jack.

cording to the divorce petition filed
in the superior court by Mrs. Emily
Stewart Jones, of Oak Park.
She SAYS he "out-shieks the Shiek'
in alluring qualities and personal
charm. Women flock about him
eagerly, listening to every tntona'
ton Of his voice., wherever he min
giles in society. They sent him love
notes, flowers, candy. and begged to
hold his hand, the wife's bill charges.
Far from being annoyed by these at
tentions, his wife AYERS, he enjoys
the flattery and boasts Of his con-
quests. ...
He has told her, she relates, OF
many instances when women
strangers stopped their automobiles
when they saw him pass. .-.. ..
His glossy hair and glowing eyes
seem to cast a spell over them and
they would order their chauffeurs

PARIS, Aug. 5.-Mathilde Nc
Cormicks wedding to Max Oser,
the Swiss riding master. has oeen
tentatively set for September at
Castle Prangins, near Geneva, ac-
cording to information received by
Universal Service.
Oser's brother, who is a lieuten-
ant OF cavalry, will be best man,
and the bride will be given rway

Europe. A select circle of guests,
mostly relatives. will witness the
ceremony in the historic castle to
which Emperor Karl. of Austria
Hungary, fled after the armistice.
In spite OF these arrangements,
however, it seems that a dark
horse" has entered the scene, while
Miss Mathilde was crossing the At
lantic.
The new contestant for the IA
vor of the Harvester millionaire's 8
daughter is 2S years old, violently
red headed and blue-eyed-Robert
Codd-who was a member of the
party of Mr.. and Mrs. Edward
r. Stotesbury, of Philadelphia, un-
der whose chaperonage Miss Ma
thilde arrived in France today. The
Stotesburys and the McCormicks
are old friends, and Nathilde and
young Codd were thrown much to-
gether during the voyage.
Arriving at Cherbourg yesterday
Codd and Mathilde entered the
same train carriage for the trip to
Paris, and on their arrival at st.
Lazare station Mathilde's father
shook the youthful medico's hand
effusively.
Mccormick and his daughter then
went to the Princess Hotel.
They dined last night at Mrs.
Gamma walska Cochrans residence
few streets away. They will
leave for Geneva Tuesday.
