A REMARKABLE custom in connec tion with window-gardening exists in some d is tries of Japan. In houses where in reside one or more daughters of a marriageable age, an empty flower-pot, of an ornamental character, is incircled by a ring, and suspended from the win dow or veranda by three light chains. The Juliets of Japan are, of course, as attractive to the Romeos as those of other land. But instead of serenades by mYnlight and other delicate ways of making an impression, it is etquette for he Japanese lover to approach the dwelling of his lady bearing some choice plant in his hand, which be boldly, but let us hope, reverently proceeds to plant n the empty vase. This takes place at a time when he is fully assured that both mother and .daughter are at home, neith erof whom, of course, is at all con scious that the young man is taking such a liberty with the flower-pot out side their window, this act of placing a pretty plant in the empty flower-pot is equivalent to a formal proposal to the young lady who dwells within. The youthful gardoer, having fettled his plant to his mind, retires, and the lady js free to act as she pleaser. If he is the right man, she takes every care of his gift, waters it, and tends it carefully with her own hands, that all the world may see the donor is accepted as a suitor. But if he is not a favorite, or if stern parents object, the poor plant is torn from the vase, and the next morning lies limp and withered on tha veranda or on the path below. Treasurer's Statement.

It is unfortunate that slang prases are so easily slipping into our every -day con versation, and taking apparently so fixed a place io our talk. And the worst of it is that so many people are using slarg entirely unconscious of the fact that they are doing so. Some of our slang phrases are scarcely recognized as such so familiar has common usage made them. Where a dozen years ago a re timed girl would hesitate to use the most moderate slang phrase, to-day she employs the most expressive slang terms without thinking, A few years ago her most pronounced expressions of surprise was "Oh, gracious!" After a while this was not strong enough, and we heard "Gee whizt" Then it turned into "Heavens! while now it is not at all uncommon to bear a girl make use of "Good Lord!" A girl speaks of a friend who is tired as being "knocked out," entirely unconscious that she is using a vulgarism of the most pronounc ed sort "Nt" is used for "no"; the sense of being bored is expressed in "You make me tired." A young man impresses a girl, and he is spoken of ns being "immense," or " way up," or be is "smooth. A girl of stylish carriage finds herself placed as being "swagger." A girl of nerve "has sand." For a girl to bs told by her companion tliat she is "not in it" is common thing. Things suit girls "down to the ground"; what they do not understand they do not tumble to." And thus the vocabulary of slang grows. IF THIS common usage of slang wore confined to a particular order of girls, it would, perhaps, serve as an indicator of character, and pass unnoticed it than at least, would not touch the sensi bilities of gentlefolk. But it ia not so confined. Slang is invading the very nicest of circles: it is begin ing to influen ce the talk of our most carefully reared girls. And this is why the habit should receive closer attention. Girls are for getting that slang phrases and refine ment are absolutely foreign to each other, A slang phrase may be more ex pressive than a term of polite usage, but it is never impressive, except to impress unfavorably; We may argue and excuse certain slang phrases and say they are harmless in their usage: that they an employed In a meaningless way. But the fact still remains that slang is vulgar, aad invariably vulgarises the girl who uses it There are no two sides to that view of the question. rv Balance $173 72 OOtTITY EOAD FUSDS.
