Bitter Wits. Voltaire and Rousseau, though on friendly terms, were in the habit of firing off pointed jokes at one another. One day Rousseau was dining with Voltaire, and oysters were brought on the table, for, as somebody has remarked, no dinner could be complete without them. The author of "Emlle," after helping himself pretty freely, made the somewhat injudicious remark: "I am sure I could eat as many oysters as Samson slew Philistines." "With the same weapon?" (the Jawbone of an ass) slyly Inquired Voltaire. Rousseau did not soon forget the little joke at his expense and sought an opportunity for revenge. Not long aft

erward Voltaire called at his bouse during his ahsence. The door being open, be walked into the library, and, finding all the books thrown about in confusion and covered with dust, he traced on one of them the word "cochon" (pig) with bis finger. Next day be met Rousseau and said to him: "1 called at your house yesterday, but did not find you In." "I know." replied the latter. "I found your card." Didn't Want to Reverse. An Irishman obtained a position la a skyscraper that was being built. He had to carry material up to the top floor. One day he went up and couldn't find his way down. The boss missed him and called up to him. "Pat," said the boss, "why don't you come down?" "I don't know the way." said Pat. "Well, come down the way you went up." "Faith and I won't," said Pat. "for I time up head first"

"Did she praise him just the same?" rejoined his friend. "Well, not exactly," was the reply, ; "hut we had not been married a week (before she declared that hanging was too good for me."

Testing the Dose. On a wet and bitter night In winter old Dr. B. was summoned from his snug home to attend a farmer threatened with pneumonia. The farmer's wife, a little woman resembling a scared bird, reported that the patient

BY ESTHER GRIFFIN WHITE. Are we evolved from the vegetable or the animal?

Some scientists maintain one, some the other. It is the truth, however .that we feel an intimacy with trees and flowers and vegetation that we do not with the lower animals. That we have actual affection for some familiar tree. That we love certain flowers. That we entertain a mad passion for particular blossoms.

That we are elated or depressed over the changes in "inanimate nature" as the seasons pass. Certain colors in juxtaposition to others in the natural scheme of things will affect one poignantly. A bit of green after the grey winter will thrill with unexplainable ec6tacy. The shadow of a leaf upon the wall will imbue with some mysterious emotion. The lilting pi the soft, faint breezes In the tree-tops will act on you like distant music. There are days when you are steeped in the exquisite perfume of nature. When your senses are lulled to deli

cious apathy. When everything is wonderful and beautiful and strange. When you are lured with the charm of existence. And intoxicated with the rapture of living. There are summer and autumn days when the landscape is accentuated and intensified.

As it is in your dreams. Uncannily clear, sharply defined, intensely contrasted. When, if you listen, you can hear the rhythm of the universe. For all things swing to rhythm. That is the reason we hunt for the

melody in music and love the motion of the dance. There are flowers and plants and trees which should be awarded medals of honor for having added to the pleasure and given a decorative aspect to a community for long. One of these in Richmond is a wonderful clematis vine that adorns the house of Mr. W. L. Boyd, on the National Road West. This cannot be seen in its perfection from the street since it is hidden by trees but from the driveway in the grounds this stately vine is shown in its amazing growth. With a tremendous stem formed by the winding of many, the vine branches into two main columns one clambering up the chimney, the other over a tree near the veranda. This vine is now in bloom the long cone-shaped clusters of lilac blossoms en reminiscent, nf the .TnnnnpBp wtipre

its graceful festooning, its extraordinary, great wooden stems, twisting

and interlacing, and its effect of natural drapery. The vine is of great age and, twined about the dormer and an old casement window on the South side of the Boyd residence, is one of the most beautiful things in this city. Mr. Clayton Hunt, who has lived for many years at the corner of South

Ninth and A streets, has made that corner noticeable for the roses that bloom there every season.

une or these, a Jacqueminot known

as the "Jack" rose is fortv

this summer. Mr. Hunt states that this rose-bush has Riven him little trouble. That it has bloomed year after year without refertllization. For forty years this lovely red rose has blossomed every June at this particular corner and should have a gold medal of the first class. Out in West Richmond is a garden full of beautiful flowers cultivated by Mrs. William Mendenhall. Amongthem is a marvelous showing of iris. We are apt to think of the iris only as the old fashioned "flag," of pale or deep purple. But in this iris collection are to be found many and exquisite variations from the original color motif. Gorgeous reds and yellows and snowy whites and opalescent blues and greens and lavenders and pinks, deep, rich tones of every nuance of shade, some velvety

in texture, others with the sheen of satin. Another collection of these same flowers is that of Mrs. Miesner of West Second street, who has a long row from the front to the rear. of her yard, in which may also be seen wonderful oriental poppies and a sea of phlox with a colorful array of columbine in many new and harmonious

combinations. ' The recent development of the columbine is one of the fascinations of gardening. And still the old-fashioned ones have

as great a charm a remarkable row of which borders the fence in an oldfashioned yard on South Ninth street where, during the summer. Dr. and Mrs. Kersey, of Chicago, reside. These are almost as tall as the fence and in two yellowish-reddish shades hard to define. In this yard are to be found such quaintly named flowers as the little pink "snow-drop," which has the white wax seed-pod; "Washington's Bower" or "Matrimony Vine;" and "Feverfew," or the old "Bachelor's Button." One of the floral beauties of the

son family whose old homestead was : tive asset to the community or environ

metamorphosed by Mr. Leeds into one more modern. They have made beautiful that part of town for generations and are in the medal class Some notable flowering plants in mass effects of more recent growth, are the spirea hedge that borders the

Nicholson residence on East Main street and the syringia bushes which surround the Henry Gennett lawn in the rear. Plants, trees, flowers have person-

In which they are located.

Such roses as that ot Mr. Clayton Hunt, such a vine as the clematis on the Boyd house, such a hedge of lilacs as that on the Leeds lawn, which hate given pleasure to generations, should be "acclaimed."
