FINE FLOWERS OF LONG AGO.
English Florists Had Secret of Grow
ing Immense Carnations.
All Oli\c r-tivr-t lloriatnx that
wo pride ourselves nowadays on tlio
sixo of our carnations , but tin ; flor
ists of , 'JOO years ago grew earimtions
throe to four inches aeros , as largo
as any , that \vc see , and thought
nothing of It ,
"All through Spain , southern
France and Italy , the carnation is
the favorite llowcr aim4 hn lioen for
hundred ? of yoiiwi , but along the
Al'editorrnnean there nro few glass
houses , for in protected < H tuitions
and on southern nlopes of hills even
dolieato Jlowcrs grow outdoors all
winter long and bloom as freely at
Christmas as in .Inly.
"The big carnations , however ,
were not grown in Spain or Italy ,
but in England , outdoors , during
the- summer time and before glas4
houses were known. They may huvq
giwm jut its large carnation llowi
rs in Spain as1 in lUnglnnd at thai
hue , but in Knglaml there was
ccord made of the fact and also ol !
he sixo , while in Spain there was
lot. Shakespeare mentions earnn-
ions and gilly flowers , or .Inly
lower * , together as blooming at the
nine H-USOII , which shows Unit the
nrnntion was then a summer flower ,
yhcrons in our greenhouses it is now
i winter bloomer. The carnation
of Shakespeare's day must have had
cry short stems , for they grew out
of doors. How the llorialn of thosu
lays treated the plants to obtain
jlooins of such size nobody knows ,
'or ' old-time florists grew flowers iu-
tend of writing books about them ;
o all we know is that , they had very
arge carnations in Queen ISlizu-
ictb's time , without knowing how
hey Mere grown. " St. Louis Olobc-

Once I met a silk bat , probably res-

nilking n cow in a London park.

Mared indignantly. The eccentric
cowboy in the top hat finished his
illottcd task , and in company of bis
cow and the milk pail be ambled
placidly out of sight. .Still , one
can't help asking , in the interest of
personal liberty , why shouldn't a
silk bat lie permitted to milk a cow ?
The cow doesn't mind , so why
should we ? Fortnightly Ueview.
MAKES HONEST CONFESSION.
An amusing story is related ol
Johns Hopkins. Honesty was evi
dently one of the fundamental trails
of his character. On one occasion
lie was -ent by bis mother to bor
row a flat iron of a neighbor. The
good neighbor gave him the flat iron
and at the same time offered him : \
piece of pie.
"No. thank you. 1 don't waul
any , " said the red faced boy , as lu
started home. Ifalf way there UK
pie and his conscience were toe
much for him. He wheeled aboul
and knoc-kcd again at the neighbor' !
door , bis face redder than ever. " 1
told you a story , " be explained ; "I
did want that pie. " Exchange.

HE FOUND A DOG.
In returning to bis homo one
night hist fall along a lonely high
way , a lad in western Ui souri was
approached by an animal be took to
be n dog. IFo whistled it up awl
patted it and it followed him home ,
rubbing against , bis legs now and
then on the way.
Ho shut the lost dog up in the
barn before entering tbo house , awl
u few minutes later bis father went
out to have n look and was almost
frightened to death.
The "dog" turned out to bo a
panther that had escaped from it
circus n month before , and bo was
held until the owner could send for
him. The boy still wants n dog if.
anyone has one to spare , but not
that kind. They growl too much
and show their teeth too often.
TOBACCO GROWN IN CANADA.
"Sounds funny io bear of tobacco

said W. .1. Clancy of Toronto. "Not
go much perhaps to Wisconsin people
ple , who know that it is "grown in
Ibis state , whore the mercury fre
quently goes out of sight , but the
average American thinks of the wav
ing palms of tbo tropics as soon as
tobacco culture is mentioned. Tt is
a fact , however , that Jho weed is
now grown with great success in On
tario and other provinces in the
eastern part of tin1 Dominion. So
great have been the returns , in fact ,
that many farmers are giving up
wheat growing and are planting to
bacco in their fields. " Milwaukee
