CHKYSANT5IEA. one had come to Rf, jst M tll chrysanthemum do, with the falling leaves, and lilca them, loo, she had bloomed as bent she might without the glow, the summer splendor or the summer showers that ether lives and other flowers share. . Bhe lived In a brcswr farm house among the Massachusetts hills with fcer old father. Had, she bloomed so late in his life to give some color and poetry to the autumn of his days, as the chrysftnthemiira blows onlv to light the fall of the dying- leaves? It must have been so, for he was well in to the sixties, while she was barely alxtoen. Years ago her mothor had died, a frail, lovely creature, who would have given that other youiijj life the joy and love It needod so; bin the child grew without It. a hardy, cheerful little thing, though not without a certain wistfulneHS at Minos in her great deep blue eyes so like a purple flower. Old Rachol, her father's housekeeper and her own faithful nm-se, used to look at her with wet eyes and shake her head. 'It ain't natural. She goes on sing ing and laughing as happy as a lark all day; but what's to make her hnppy, say IP It ain't hor father, nor yet me, tljo' I do love her, the dear, and she stin't got no mother, no sister, no Vjrothor, nor vot no lover, so what's to make her hnppy? It ain't natural," she Insisted, as a blithe voice rose above the clHttr of the dlshpans as Rachel bustled around the kitchen. "What makes you go happy, lamb?" cried the old lady out through tho open window. "Oh, Rai'hnel, I've got such a lovely lot of chrysanthemums; come out and see; oh, look, look!" "It's them flowers that make hor happy." muttered the old servant, a9 he made hor way through the kitchen irarden. "Well, to be suro, Chriss, donr, them do beat all. Oh, them is hand somer "Aren't they Just lovely? See the grant golden one9 and the purple; those lire my favorite, and thU cherry and white, nnd these pure white, too, those are for mothor," sho said, lowering her voice a little; "they are the only ones I Bhall pick. Kachaol, aren't they lovely?'1 But Kachaol only shook hor head and went into the house. "To think she loves them flowers so; It ain't natural, it ain't; if it was a kitten now or a ilo I wouldn't wonder to, but a lot of clinging asters, it ain't natural." Natural or not, Chris9 was very hap py. Sho hun s over her nowly bloom ing pets nearly all the morning, then a sudden cloud curie over her face. Bhe looked up with a long sigh and turned to the back of the house, where two deep windows marked hor father's study. "I wonder now if I dnre toll him about them, he does hate so to be dis turbed; hut oh! I want him to see those purple ones so much." With ono fond look at her glowing Bed she went In at the door. With hesitating step she passed along the broad, old-fashioned hall and rapped timidly at the oaken door. Not ex pecting any response sho went in and la-hod as she saw the gray, bent head porlnjj over an old book. A wood lire smoldered on the hearth. Sho knelt Sown and blow the embers, looking up Bow and then with a smile. "There, there, let it alone, child; it Is burning very well." "Oh. father, father " "Well, what now?' "Father, it's just lovely out to-day so warm and so sunny; and, father, my flowers are in bloom." Your flowers oh, the chrysan themum bed, hey? Well, that's good." "Father, won't yon come and look at ihemP "l)ol" very wistfully. "Oomo out? Not I. I've got some thing better to do than to look at a lot of posies. There, run along, child; low do." She went very slowly and softly out of the room, closing the door gently behind her. but her heart was hill. Her song was silent now, and as she passed the kitchen window she did not look up and nod as usual. She went quietiy out to the hot house and, selecting a small trowel, knelt down beside the white chrysan themums and began loosening the roots with tender, patient hands. "She would have come to look," she murmured as she glanced otf to where the white shaft of her mother's tomb aroso. "Sho would have understood; per haps she will understand now if I say a Uttlo prayer. " Two hot tears fell on the pure blos soms as she gathered them up in hor apron; but they were not bitter tears, she was too young for that. Sho walked quickly across tho fields that separated the burying ground from the bouse, and soon was by her mother's grave. The field lark was chirping, the goldenrod had brushed her cheeks as she passed, hor heart was lighter, and she sang under her breath a sweet, old-fashioned hymn. At lost the flowers were planted and he turned to go. A young man with a sKetch book nder his arm stood aside to lot her pass. She looked up in time to see him remove his hat, and encountered a pair of dark brown eyes. She colored, and went on with quickened steps, conscious of hor soiled apron and arth-begrimed fingers. Ha stood looking after her, still with his head bared. He was an artist; the sight of the young girl kneeling by the grave had appealed to his senses. He had seen the monument from I distance and had come to inspect it, without an idea of intruJing; there he had seen ir. had n. one look into those sweet, flower-like eye, and had let her go without one word of apolotry. lie saw her enter the farm house and than retraced his steps, reading first the Inscription on the monument: Sacred to the memory of Klizahoth, Wife of Caleb Field, W ho died Jan. Id Aired 19 year. "He Riveth his beloved sleep." On the mound were the freshly planted buds. He stooped down a lit tle to see If they were wilted, and he thought he saw a tear-drop in the hoart of one of them. "Poor little girl I was a brute to tome up like that; I must tell mother" Frank Wainwright had a very goo and lovely mother, a mother whe, though devoted to her only child, hsi fcaea wit enough to traia Aim nobly. Their place was some two miles off, among the most picturesque of the Berkshire hills. He almost ran to the drive, and came upon his mother just as she wai descending from her carriage. Why, dear, what is it?" seeing him so flushed and hurried. "Coma Into the house and will tell you." In a few words he told eagerly what he had seen, and a soft look came over Mrs. Wainwright's gentle face. Fif teen years before, about this time (and sho remembered the ohrysantha muins then in bloom), she had laid dawn among them her little fair, dead daughter. Her heart bled as the spoke of the flowers; he saw the anguish in her face and stopped. "Oh. mother, forgive. I never thought of my sister," he said broken ly. She bowed hor head and they sat silent, hand in hand, for a moment I hen Mrs. W. spoke in a low, sweet voice: "I should like to see this young girl; and, my son, no apology Is need ed for what was unintentional; a simple explanation should suffice. Poor child! I wonder if it was her mother's grave." Rachael was astounded the next daj by seeing tho Wainwright turnout at their door. She clapped on a clean white apron ind showed Mrs. W. very civilly into the parlor, and took the card in to tho master, "Humph!" he said. "I don't want to see her. Whore's Chriss?" "Hore, father," she answered. She 3 ad been reading boside him, and he lad never noticed her. "It's Mrs. W., sir; she that bought .ho Morris place. She's a real lady, ilr." "Oh, Rachael, what shall I say to jor.-" exclaimea Chriss. "Vou don't need to say anything. Just go and smile at her, my lamb i ml she'll bo satisfied, I know." When Chriss saw the tall lady In nournlng her heart misgave her for a moment until she heard hor vole "My child," it said, "you must won lor at my visit. It was my son Frank who intruded upon you yesterday, and who could not rust until I came to say how entirely a mistake it was." Chriss took courago to look up under her long eyelashes and was reassur ed. "Oh, certainly, Mrs. W. ; he was eery kind and and polite, I am sura, and I thank you for coming." "Thank you, dear, and now I will to. You have a pleasant home here. Miss Field," sho said, as Chriss walk ad off with her to the carriage. "Oh! do you think so? "Yes, it is pleasant Wait just one minute, Mrs. W., plonsa Sho ran swiftly out of sight, and re turned with an exquisit bunch of white chrysanthemums. Tho tears sprang to Mrs. W.'s eyes. She took the bunch and the small hand with it into her own and laid a kiss upon the pure young brow. "They're mother's flowers; she's lead, you know," said Chriss, simply. "I know, my dear, and I shall cher ish them ; good-by." "Oh ! Rachol I that's the loveliest indy I ever saw !" cried Chriss, rush ing into the kitchen. "I suppose- you won't look at any ot us now," retorted the old woman, an d w.is huffed and offended for two whole lays. A week after that there came in invitation to take tea with Mrs. W., and great were tho preparations for tho event arid Rachaol was very proud of her darling as she drove off irraycd in a pretty, quaint gown of lilac, with a ruffle of red lace at her neck and wrists. "She's pretty as a peach," declared ner old nurse, "with them sweet blue ayes and them little pink cheeks, so ihe is." Mrs. W. met her, and a wave of motion went over her, and sba thought of her own lost darling. Now, dear, we are to be friend u. you know," said Mrs. W., as they sat lown together in the beautiful library, "and I don't even know your name." "Mother named me Chrysanthea,' and they call me Chriss. You see I was born in October, the same as the flowers, and I 6uppose that niado her think of the name. I was only two years old when she died." "Two years old!" the words sent a pang through the mother's heart She sighed heavily, then crossed the room and took a portrait from the table and g-tve it into Chriss hands. It was that of a dear little dimpled jfirl, with an upturned, laughing face. "My daughter," Mid. W. said. "Oh, have you a daughter? Whata pretty child?" Then seeing the sad, troubled look in her friend's face she threw herself on her knees and buried her head in Mrs. W.'s lap. After that they were more than friends. A iweet scute of peace flooded Mrs. W.'s motherly heart as she hold that girlish form in her arms and passed her fin ders through tho dark, clinging curls, ind she learned all the cruel loss that young heart had suffered, unconscious of how it revealed the very depths of an unsullied nature of the tenderest kind. What wonder if Mrs. W. thought. "Oh, heart of gold! If she could only bo my daughter Indeed!" And so il came to pass that very nest year, when tho chrysanthemums were in full bloom, Frank Wainwright led his bride to the little village church. Old Rachel brings their children often now to the spot where their mother used to wath her flowers in bcr desolate childhood, and as she smiles at the pretty, chubby faces the old woman murmurs to herself: "She's happy now, and it's natural ihe should be. She's got something t?tter than flowers to cai-o for now. Sod bless hor." Xcw York Journal. Tas Earth It Grovlaf Larrsr.

"Thoneh sodden fields stretch cold, unvaried, And birds U7 sonta ou weary wins; Still In our nappy hearts ar- carried I lie bone and promise of the Spring." As the songs and fl jwers of Snmme Mase it seems that we say "good-bye" with less of regret that one would have thought possible when its light and bloom were with as. We cat, the last week in October, the lastof our garden flowers; a bunch of yellow marigolds, a few lata asters and sweet peas, and mixed them with the silvery pompons of clematis fcr a last bouquet, but chrysanthemum was blossoming in its new quarters among the honse-plants many of which are blooming also. The maple trees outside the walls were gorgeous in crimson and gold. and fast weaving a carpet below them in warm, bright hues, where children coming home from school love to tum ble and roll, pelting each other with armfful of the sweet-smelling leaves. Companies of birds gather and chat ter among the trees making ready for their aonthward flight; still a few, brave crickets chirp in the grass and, now, and then a tattered butterfly floats languidly by; the evergreeus alone stand green and stalely on the lawn, and their dark, solemn lieauty is more and more brought out as the other trees become leafless and the white snow falls making a soft back ground. But we know that down in the bosom of mother earth, onr lilnuta are taking a needed sleep, only to greet us again when "the inter is over and gone," and Spring comes singing over the hill sides. BARRACBXIAS. There are no plants indigenous to the United States mora beautiful and interesting than the Sarracenias or "pitoher plants." They grow profuse ly in certain localities, in low bogs and cedar swamps, the green pitchers ipreading over the ground and the ourions flowers rising from thorn on high, stately stems. 'Ihoy are qnite easily cultivated by planting in a crock filled with moss, which must be kept well saturated with wator. Harracenia Canadensis, the sidesad dle flower or huntsman's cap, is tho common species at the North, of which there are two varieties; S. purpurea with large, purple flowers and S. heterophylla with blossoms of a pecul iar greenish yellow. In the Southern States there are also leveral varieties; S, prittacina, having t deep, purple flower with leaves some what resembling a parrot in form, from which it takes its specific name. S. Drummondii is the laruest of the family, the pitchers being comelimes two feet high, with handsome reddish- purple flowers. Another Southern species has leaves some twelve inches long, beautifully vined and BjHitteJ with pnrple and white, while the flowers are bright yellow and very ihowy. Darlingfonia California is the Pacific representative of this family as well as ue I the Handsomest, the leaf itself. being peculiarly beautiful, as will be een by onr illustration. 1 he pitchers of the Sarraeenios are generally found partially filled with a watery liquid as to the Kource and use of which botanists do not agree. As insects ate caught iu this ingenious trap and are drowned and decomiosed in the water, the theory is adduced that they serve a purpose in the plant's nutrition, and there ia a fair uhare of botinical authority in support of this theory. At any rate, the form and structure of these plants are admirably adapted for this pnrose, some of them lecreting a honey-like substance about the month which attracts insects, and being lined with f-titf hairs pointing lownward which preveut their escape when once within the fatal DHSsace.

"German Syrup 99 Here is an incident from the South Mississippi, written in April, 1890, just after the Grippe had visited that country. " I am a fanner, one of those who have to rise early and work late. At the beginning of last ! Winter I was on a trip to the City j of Vicksburg, Miss, .where I got well ' drenched in a shower of rain. I went home and was soon afterseized ! with a dry, hacking cough. This grew worse every day, until I had to seek relief. I consulted Dr. Dixon who has since died, and he told me to get a bottle of Boschee's German Syrup. Meantime my cough grew worse and worse and then the Grippe came along and I caught that also very severely. My condition then compelled me to do something. I got two bottles of German Syrup. I began using them, and before taking much of the second bottle, I was entirely clear of the Couh that had bung to me so long, the Grippe, and all its bad effects. I felt tip-top and have felt that way ever since." Pktkr J.B rials, Jr.. Cayuga, Hines Co., Miss.
