IN SOLDIER BONUS


Albany, Jan. 26.-Under bill Of
fered yesterday by Assemblyman
Cuvillier,S as compromise plan to
provide State bonus for veterans
of the World War, a reserve militia
is created of all persons who served
in the Army or Navy from this State
between April 6, 1817, and Armistice
Day, Nov. Il, 1918. The State would
be authorized to issue bonds up to
$4O.OOO.O0O if approved at the next
election.
Assemblyman Cuvillier said this
met the decision of the Court of Ap-
peals, that the bonus law of last year
was unconstitutional, because the
money was a gratuity and not an OBJ
legation of the State. If the Governor
called for the enrolment of all
World War veterans in the reserve
militia, the State could pay them SIC
a month for each month they were
in service, as provided in his bill.

ander, of Kings, offered one provid-

veterans for twenty years following 9

Fashions in Flowers,

Flowers have not always meant
beauty alone. In the days of the
French revolution to wear or even pos
sess the prescribed fleur-de-lys meant
death. Likewise, after Waterloo and
the fall from power of the Napoleonic
regime, the violet, which had been
chosen as the emblem Of the Napol-
cons, was forced to disappear from
public view. Yet later, as times
changed, history found the Empress
Eugene wearing the violet on her
breast at ball in the Tuileries to
signify to the world that she had ac-
cepted the hand Of Napoleon III.
Nor have the same flowers always
found favor in the eyes of the world.
Some flowers have their fashions, too,
as, for example, the camelia and the
once despised sunflower and marigOld
1t was through Dumas that the waxen
beauty of the camelia came into gen
eral favor, and the pre-Raphaeltes re-
stored to high place the sunflower and
the marlgold, the mythical goldaower
