tRT, FLOWER GARDEN. COSMOS. Tblt new flower lias been steadiTy Towing in favor tlnoe its introduction from Mexico few years ago It is of tapid growth, making a bush from four to six feet In height and has fiue needle-like foliage baring showy flow ers resembling eiogle dahlias ranging in color from white through shades of flesh color and rose to purple. The flowers remain fresh for a Ion it time making them valuable- as oat-flowers) and for dress garniture. ', They bloom very late in the season and are the fashionable flower at the National Capital this year. They re quire treatment similar to the dahlia. Plants potted and taken into the green house ti the fall will give a great num ber of flowers Tery late, their loose dusters presenting a charming appear ance, "A sincere friend" writes: We live in a city and have a piazza inclosed by glass and facing South. Its only heat comes from the sun and by a door communicating with a furnace heated room. What plants will be likely to produco the beat returns in flowers from such a place? lour piazza seems to be just the place for house plants if proper pre cautions are taken against frost. Here in any place north of Philadelphia, it would seem necessary to hare double flass, or that furnace firos should be ept in the the severest weather. Then, if proper moisture is eiving by keeping an open vessel of water in the room or frequent showering of the plants, you will have almost an ideal "window garden." In such a place, in the sunny win dow all the geraniums will thrive well. We give a list of some of the beat: Jules Ferry, beautiful single red; Charles Darwin, dwarf, dark red, donble; Happy Thonght, variegated leaves, magenta flower; Bridesmaid; free bloomer, white with tinted center, Cinderella, large trass of rosy-salmon flowers; Lady Plymouth, handsome variegated rose geranium; L'elegante; ivy-leaved geranium, flowers white, Bronze Prince, showy yollow and ' brown foliage salmon flowers; Bijou, 'silver leaved foliage, very desirable. All the fragrant geraniums are treasures, and almost iudispensable for buttonhole and table bonijuets. Tea roses are also very desirable and by getting several varieties and treat ing them properly a succession of bloom may be had all winter. We give below a list of those in in our own col lection: fcSappbo and Safrand, beautiful sal mon, yellow changing to fawn, both Tery fragrant and of fine form. Catherine Merrnet, handsome free blooming rcse, very fragrant, strong growth and fine buds. The Lride, almost identical with Catherine Mermet except in color, flowers lare, pure white. Papa Go&tier, much like the popu lar Jacqueminots, with large sized buds. Grand Mogul and Souvenir de Wov ton, two fine highly perfumed roses of a dark red color. Francisca Krueger, a fovorite va riety, copper-yellow, shaded with peach. La Princess Vera, Ivory white shaded with yellow and veined with pink, very fine. Aurora, silvery rose, sunset, beauti ful saffron, and Bougere, elegant bronze-pink completes a lint of roses which will be found very satisfactory. If it is desired to add one of the Polyantha variety, i'.ose, Clothilda Houpert will le found one of the best. Carnations are satisfactory plants for this sort of culture but must be given a cool place and not too much sunshine. A few good varieties are: .Nellie Lewis, pink, shaded with carmine; Gracie Wilder, tine-fringed. delicate pins; neawan, dark, rich car dinal; Mrs. Fisher, white flowers on long stems, very fragrant; Buttercup, yellow, streaked with red ; Juliet, dwarf, color, white streaked with maroon; Portia, bright red, free bloomer. Cinerarias are fine for house culture. They are easily cultivated of fine color and markings, delicate perfume and free blooming habit and should be in more general cultivation. Bouvardias are also easily raised, but require more heat than carnations or geraniums. They reward the careful grower with brilliant flowers produced in great profusion nearly all win ter. Begonias are of so many and strik ing varieties that the grower has wide choice in his selection. The flowering begonias have line foliage as well as delicate flowers, while the Rex Variety make fine plants for decorative nses. Heliotrope is, as it name indicates, a sun loving plant, and in good sun shine will make marvelous growth, its lovely little flowers and sweet perfume making it very attractive. A box of pansies is also most desira ble. Procure a long, shallow box, fill with rich earth, sow seed of some of . tliS Jarga flowered sorts and keep in a warm, shady place. There is nothing more satisfactory. Near it may be a box of Escboscholt uas ana tneir vrvifl colors will coi trast finely with the rich purple of the pansies.

These two grand women were not of the sort known as "well-preserved.' They had never be n at any pains to "preserve their beauty, l hey Jived out their lives heartily and warmly. sparing themselves not at all, and keeping their intellects ever in nse for their own pleasure and the good of otners. Mental activity and a lively, energetic benevolence spoke in every lineament. Beautiful both must have been even In youth, but each coming year nad brought to both an addeJ charm. It could not have been said of either that Bhe waa "beautiful for her age." Their beauty waa absolute and brilliant as they presided over stormy meetings with stately presence; or, with glowing cheeks, flashing eyes ana persuasive eloquenoe, addressed large gatherings of women, or smaller ones of influential men, in advocaoy of .1 - i . , - - . lueir oenevoieni uesign. . o one to day denies to Dr. Sims the credit of being a benefactor and a surgeon of magnificent skill and originality; yet no progressive physician was ever more violently opposed. "To these two old ladies, says Dr. Sims in his biogra- pny, -wno orougnt their beauty aa well as their eloquence to bear in my favor, 1 owed the possibility of suc cess." "By the power of their elo quence, enforced by their beauty, they carried all before them," said Dr. John Francis. We mention these tw women not Wcause they were singular instances, but because they were so well known in their day that even now, after their bright spirits have so many years been gone from among us, there are some who will remember them, and know that even their own young selves could not have rivalled the etherealized beauty of their aged selves. The love of beauty is a divine attri bute. With what loving touch does the Creator fashion flow. r and cloud, river and wood, mountain and lakel By this we are taught that the love of bennty is in itself a good and holy thing, aud that the desire to be beau tiful for benuty's sake, and not for any selfish nse, is divinely implanted, and should not be crushed, but cherished. Without doubt youth has its own beauty, a freshness, an unsullied sweetness, a purity of outline and of coior, that make us love to look upon it. But with the cares, bickerings, jealousies, sorrows, pains, and strug gles of life this loveliness of mere youth passeth away. The beauty of age is of aa ideal, a spiritual kind, and no imagination of the beauty of an angel can equal that which we have seen growing day by day in the strong and gentle face of a frail woman of eighty years, whose cheek still flushes and Dales to everv emotion, who laughs with the heartv ring of girlhood, whose sympathies are keen and active, and fronv whoaa dark and radiant eyes there look out the spirits of Courage, Love and Peace. iney who would not merely "snow the remains of beauty'' when thev are old, but be really beautiful in av. must begin early. They must love warmly and wisely; they must live purely and unselfishly; they must be inn oi mental and beneBcient activity. No petty disguises of color or skilful devices of dress can do aught but re reveal more pitiably the secret they seek to hide. Features and complex ion are but the "windows" through which "they" the spirits within "look out." Upon the nature of these spirits, not upon that of the windows, depends the lieauty of age.

At Eome. in 1222, it rained dust, mixed with blood, for three days, and when the heavy clouds drifted away id looked as if the sun was swimming in a sea of fire, says the St. Louis Re public Four years later, In 1226, a snow fell in Syria, which presently melted and flowed in carmine rivers of blood, or some fluid much t9sembling it in every particular. Many of the old writers record a three day shower or blood-red rain iu the Island of Rhodes and throughout southern Italy in izao. a montc, writing in 101, tells of a loaf being cut out of which blood flowed as freely aa from a fresh wound. In 1348 there were many great tempests, beveral towns and thousands of people were swallowed up and the courses of rivers changed or stopped.

One day the boy came nonchal intly into the girl's presence, and af r some desultory conversation he aid: You know mv do? Barca and vour at Darling?" Yes."

It is very rare, that an actress cele- jratos her seventy-fifth year of con- ecutive service on the stage of the ame theater. This event, perhaps jnique in dramatic annals, has just occurred at Stuttgart, wnere rrau Louise Schmidt, of the Roval Court heater, has now completed her three- quarters of a century of uninterrupted engagements with that house. She made her debut in 1814, being thea 9 fears old. The head waiter reminds one of mat rimony He is a high menial, will be remembered. Miss Bracdon, in her forthcoming novel, "Gerald: or. the World, tha Flesh, and tbe Devil" has chosen for ber theme, the Agnoetio's sense of the shortness of Ufa and the futility of ricnes;tne same reeling whlah breathe through the lament of the preaoher. The story is a sad one, and the ma chinery, whioh in an essentially modern manner reproduces the Central idea of Balzao's "Pean de Chagrin." touches only the outermost fringe of the super natural. fnlneT ? g?

Many handkerchiefs are moistened by sorrows that never occur. Dentists are not all farmers, but they live t n the achers just tbe same. It would be hardly fair to call alack legged lawyer a limb of the law. It is odd enough that burglars take such risks In a safe opening. A stingy man can be relied upon to keep everything but his promise. An acceptable third party movement Leaving the young couple by them selves. Some weak-knefd husbands with very Luge wives are not able to hold their own. The debtor Is the fellow who isn't at all anxious to have his creditors hurry on his account. 'Mamma, why do they put the pic ture of an eagle on dollars?" "To show tbat money tlies, my dear." Marriage is a divine institution, but it is hard to divine some people's reason for ever having entered IU "Capital punishment, " as tbe boy said when the sohool-mlstreas seated him with tbe girls.

All animals have their eood points. but for abundance of the same none can compete with the porcupine. It Isn't so much that a man objects to pay the debt of nature; it is the nature of tbe debt that troubles him. The peacock may not be inclined to gossip, but be loves to spira l a high colored tale about the neighbor hood. A man can always keep himself in good credit so long as he doesn't ask for It. Paste this in your hat and dodge tbe fatal request. The ownership of tbe modern bouse Is usually shaded between the baby, tne nurse aud the hired girl. "I see that a tapir f scaped, from a traveling menagerie in Prance recent ly." "H'm Sort of a runaway match?"

No other form ot Indisposition occurs so fre quently with adults, as well aa with children, as dyspepsia (weakness of digestion). No other manifests Itself by ao many different symp toms, and Is consequently mistaken for tome other disorder. No other has more serious results if neglected, and yet no other la more easily cured than ao-callel Indigestion. It occurs with babies and teeth ing children and with grown persons particu larly In consequence of a cold on the stomach, (catarrh) caused by wet feet. Improper diet or ntemperanca In eating orditnklng. Tbe us of Icy beverages Is particularly dangerous In this respect. It manifests Itself at first by loss ot appetite, aversion to certain kinds of food, a desire to vomit, coated tongue, parched lips and sharp pains Just above and between the yes. If tbe trouble continues for any length of time, the patients grow thin and weak, and and la consequence become peevish and mo rose. If the disease Is confined to the stomaoh It Is usually accompanied bv constipation. If It extends into the Intestines, aa Is often the ease with children, diarrhoea sets In, which is extremely weakening. If the disease Is neglect ed In tbe beginning the pain over the eyes in creases to -uch an extent with gron persons that the symptoms resemble those of Inflamma tion of the bowels or of the brain. More or less violent att cks of fcrer almost always accom pany a weak digestion, and frequently ths eause of the disease Is sought anywhere elae than In the stomach, which has become rebel lious In conseqence ofacoldoran Iniproperdiet. And yet all forms of dyspepsia can be easily readied with the aid of the St Bernard Vege table Pills, which are prepared from the herbs of the Swiss Alps. The pills contain an extract of ihese herbs which act as a t-nle and at the same time beal'ng aud streii;tHeiilug.
