m Shamrock H mand Roses | By JOHN KIRK ADAMS U fix—(Copyright, 1912, by Associated Literary Press) Ann Burns passed the little flower shop twice a day when she went to and from her work in the wholesale millinery house down town. It was Ann’s business to sell artificial flowers to the country buyers who were patrons of the place, but the masses of tinted silk and cotton blossoms were but a mockery to her flower-lov-ing nature. She yearned for the living, scented blooms. The little florist shop was tucked away between two tall buildings and there was but one window in which to display the flowers. Against a changing background of ferns or palms there appeared bunches of dark blue violets in imitation cut glass vases, or tall jars of roses, goldenheaded chrysanthemums, waxen lilies, and every other flower in its season — but always roses and violets. Ann’s blue eyes peered wistfully through the window and vied with the hue of the violets there. Her pretty nose tried to sniff the fragrance of the blossoms and when the door <jf the shop opened and closed again she really did get a whiff of the fragrance from within. “Oh, dear,” sighed Ann, “I do wish there might be money to spare for flowers some times. There’s Granny lying helpless with rheumatism and only me to take care of her and the money melts like the dew ‘on the meadow&dn Carrickglen—ah, ’tis my wish we had never come to this eold, heartless country!” The tears blurred her eyes and she hastened on her way up the street toward home where Qranny Burns would be awaiting her coming with eagerness. AU the way to the upper lamO 4 11 H - « I ' > Paused Before the Window. east side, to gain which the elevated road greedily gobbled one of her precious nickels, Ann’s thoughts were busy with the old times in Ireland. Granny managed to hobble around and prepare a hot supper for her devoted granddaughter and . when Ann arrived, Granny was sitting in the old arm chair beside the table waiting for her. “Ah, Granny dear!” cried the girl, putting her cold cheek next the ancient withered one. “ ’Tis a mind I have to punish you for the recklessness! No, don’t stir a step! I’m not a bit tired and I’ll be having the supper dished before you can say ‘Whisht’!” She tossed off her cloak and hat and .flew to the wash-basin In the corner. “Arrah, dearie, ye’ll wear yerself to bones with all the flurry av waitin’ on an old good-fer-nothin’ like mesilf!” lamented Granny as Ann poured the tea. I Ann dished up the stew into two equal platefuls and by coaxing and . threats prevailed upon Granny to eat •her share instead of secreting it for another day. I “I’ve got my job, Granny, and please God we can have enough to eat and medicine for you. Only I sometimes wish I could bring you a bit of flow,'er or something like that to brighten the room.” She told Granny what she ‘had seen in the florist’s window that Jday and Granny listened eagerly. : “Shamrocks? Did yez say pots of shamrock ffrom th’ ould country?” whimpered Granny. ■ “Yes, dear —and something more. There was a pan with a great square of the old sod in it—and shamrock growing there and weeny little flowers —ah, I wanted to buy that for „ you, {Gran —it was like a bit of Carrickglen !and the old days!” I “Never mind, dearie,” the old wo|man comforted the young one, “yer [day will come and yez’ll bring yer jarrums full of posies to Granny. I Meantimes we’ll be thinkin’ av th’ lould sod and how th’ Carrickglen imedders looked in th’ springtime!” The next day Ann carried out a (strong resolution. It was the sevenjteenth of March and St. Patrick's day. ’She left Granny murmuring prayers

over her rosary and lamenting the fact that she could not go to church.' Ann walked all the way down to the store and saved five cents. She omitted her lunch and saved ten cents. She planned to walk home and, thus saving five cents more, would have accumulated twenty cents which she resolved to spend upon flowers for Granny. The florist shop was still open when Ann whirled around the corner and paused before the narrow window where for several days many tiny pots of shamrock had gladdened her eyes. To her terror the pots had disappeared and there remained nothing save the big square’ of turf green with the emblematical trefoil. Worn out with the fatigue of her long walk in the morning and half fainting for the lack of the small sustaining lunch at noon, Ann crossed the threshold of the florist shop and leaned against the counter. The air was warm and fragrant with a mingling of delicious odors threaded with smoke. A large fat man was talking to the tall, black-eyed young Irishman behind the counter. “I counted on your havin’ some shamrock saved for me, Timmy,” he complained. *T’ve sold every pot of the stuff,” explained Timmy. “How about the bit of sod in thy window, Timmy?” asked the customer persuasively. “ ’Tis not for the likes of you, Sullivan,” laughed the florist good naturedly. “Your money can’t buy that! Why, ’twas sent to me direct from my old home in Carrickglen and I’ve got to keep it.” The fat man frowned and moved toward the door. “You’ll never succeed in business Timmy Hagan—a merchant should sell everything and anything in his store— i down to his immortul sowL if necessary to turrn a dollar!”’ “Well, my soul ain’t for sale today, Sullivan!” laughed the youth, and as the door slammed behind the man he turned to Ann. “What can I do for you, Miss?” he asked. “I wanted some shamrock,” she faltered, “but you said you didn’t have any.” “No more I haven’t,” he said regretfully, “except this here from old Carrickglen. "Twas sent to me by my cousin.” He reached into the window and brought forth the pan of sod. “Maybe you’d like a sniff of it.” He placed it on the counter. Ann looked at it with longing eyes. All the pent up sorrow of the past three years broke bounds at once and with a little sob ‘her face dropped down on the bit of Carrickglen sod. “Oh, dear, dear!” she cried. Timmy Hagan stared aghast at her lovely pale face, tearfully pressed against the green turf. “Ah, you’re Irish, too!” he cried impulsively; “tell me all about the trouble!” Ann told him everything from the beginning, and the eyes of the florist never left her facq in the telling. When she had concluded he grasped the pan of sod, whipped it into a boxj stuffed the corners with tissue paper, 1 tied the package and proceeded to get into his overcoat. “I hope you’ll not take offense, but this sod is for your Granny, and I’m going to see you home and see that you get there all right! Mike’ll tend to the shop.” Going uptown in the train she suddenly turned grateful eyes to his. “1 can never, never pay you, Mr. Hagan," she said timidly. “Some day you can,” he said enigmatically. “I’m a florist, you know, and I’m interested at present in turning white roses to pink ones —you help me some!” He looked down at her and as their glances met®the transformation took place—for under the magic of his awakening love, Ann’s pale cheeks turned to richest rose color. Colored Photography. Great accuracy in colors is claimed for the photographic pictures shown by the modified three color process of Captain Otto Fulton, an English photographer. The three impressions made by the usual blue, green and red light screens are printed in black and white on non-inflammable opaque paper, and the images reflected by these three pictures pass respectively through a white, a pale green and a pale orange tinting screen, and are by three lenses superimposed upon the projecting screen. The delicatg tints and shades resulting seem to be the closest approach to natural colors yet reached. The process is well adapted for moving pictures,. powerful electric lamps In front and at the side of the paper band producing the reflection, and the avoidance of the risk of fire from celluloid films is not the least important advantage. Social Necessity. “Oh, Em, I’ve got tne sweetest dog you ever saw!” exclaimed Dresser to a friend upon yvhom she was callIng. “Two months old, and such a beautiful pup!” “Why, Gwendoline, the idea of your having a dog! I never thought you’d come to that!” returned her friend. “I never did either,” answered Mrs. Dresser, “but you know one has to have one of three things to be a success in society—a trip abroad, an operation or a dog. I chose the dog because the other things are so awfully expensive.” Quite Fitting. “I am looking for a hat for a young friend, who is a graduate of a female medical college.” “Then why not get her something I with a ‘stiff’ frame?”

PROFESSIONAL MEN SHOULD ADVERTISE By WM. C. FREEMAN. I have always been an ardent advocate of advertising for professioaal men—lawyers, physicians and dentists —and have never been able to understand the “Ethics” which permit the seeking of free publicity in the news columns, but condemn the open and above-board busineis-seeklng advertisement. I firmly believe that well-written, forceful advertisements in dally newspapers will build a profitable practice for the reputable physician, dentist or lawyer—just as it builds a profitable business for the merchant and manufacturer. That is why I was glad to see in the New York Herald recently an interview with Dr. R. Lincoln Graham, in which the doctor puts himself on record in favor of advertising. / Dr. Graham observes all the forms prescribed by thb ruling bodies Os the medical profession in New York, but he is free in his criticism of the attitude he, with others, is compelled to assume thereby. He says very plainly that many New York physicians of unquestioned professional standing practice self-ex-ploiting methods not so commendablb as advertising. He further states that if the professional ban against advertising were raised, it would add millions annually to the incomes of physicians generally. It would also lighten the burden upon free clinics and dispensaries, and enable specialists to reduce their present necessarily prohibitive fees to proportions the general public could pay. There Is no doubt that the greater proportion of the reputable medical men of the country will welcome the time when they will be free to advertise without impairing their professional standing. And that time Is gradually drawing nearer, for professional men all over the country are beginning to realize the value of advertising, and it wont be long before their united demands will compel the medical associations to recognize this fact and to raise the ban against advertising. Sampling and Real Advertising. The manufacturers of a food product whose advertising methods ar 9 described in a recent issue of Printers’ Ink are said to be great believers in sampling. The reason for their faith are rather peculiar. They set aside a certain arbitrary sum for distributing samples in a given locality. If the resultant increase in sales in that locality is equal to the expenditure for sampling, the sampling is regarded as successful advertising! There are a dozen methods by which almost any concern can advertise Its wares and recoup the advertising expenditure. But the object of most business men—either manufacturers or retailers —is to make their advertising pay for itself and produce the largest possible surplus for the advertiser. Really successful advertising is the kind that brings the greatest results —to wit, and particularly for the exploitation of a food product for which there should be a demand in every home, daily newspaper advertising. We do not condemn sampling. But the result of sampling, compared with the results of an intelligently-planned newspaper campaign, are a joke.— Philadelphia Record. Learn to Swim While at Sea. The' steamship Arcadian, the Royal Mail line’s hew cruiser, arrived at New York from Southampton byway of the West Indies, to go into the Bermuda service. It has features that no other cruising steamship has, including bunkless staterooms, all of its cabins being equipped with bedsteads. She can accommodate four hundred passengers and all may eat at one time in a double storied dining room. Passengers who cannot swim and desire to learn will receive lessons from a swimming instructor, who has charge of a 30-foot tiled pool, with sea water of a summer temperature. There is a window in every stateroom, and in warm weather the rooms are artificially cooled. The Arcadian has a displacement of 14,120 tons, is 517.6 feet long and 55.3 feet wide amidships. It will sail on its first trip to Bermuda at noon on Saturday. Why Politeness Has Decayed. The Rev. R. S. de Courcy Laffan, rector of St. Stephen’s, Walbrook, preaching on “Manners,” said in this country we had never been a people, perhaps, with a very high conception of what manners should be. In an omnibus the other day he saw one of a party of foreigners raise his hat to the conductor. Two English people said to each other, “What fools these foreigners are.” A great many people argued that it was a good thing forms of politeness were becoming obsolete. In the days of the motor, the typewriter and the telegraph we had no time for such things. The real reason why politeness had decayed was that people did not want to be bothered. —London Mail. Sagacity of Lower Animals. Prof. F. A. Perrin of Chicago university, in a lecture before the American Psychological association at Washington, dwelt on the savacity of the lower animals, which he declared Is often greater than that of man himself. For example, said he, a rat will reason his way out of a complicated Inclosure with more ease than an educator human being would in an analogous case.

GUARANTEE OF GOOD FAITH Merchant Who Advertises Creates "'Good Impression Among People of His Town. Advertising is a guarantee of good faith. It is evidence of efficiency and success. The advertising of local stores in such a town as ours, says the Keokilk (la.) Gate City, is one of the cleanest phases of modern business. Retail trade attracts a substantial class of men who prefer to tell the trutji for its own sake, and would not cheat their neighbors if they could. Os course motives of self interest also warn them to take pains to make advertising accurate, for misstatements produce disgruntled customers who can make a lot of trouble for a store which depends for success on its townspeople. If men of less responsible character sometimes go into retail trade, they are too shrewd to make misstatements in the cold publicity of advertising type. Our experience is that complaints of misrepresentation are almost never heard. The public thus learns from experience that local store advertising is trustworthy. As it deals with such subjects of surpassing interest as cost of living and the fashions of the day every line of it is read with the most discriminating attention. People like to read and think abeut shopping before visiting a store. A great many purchasers are practically made from the newspaper before lhe buyer leaves home, v Furthermore, liberal advertising tells the public that a merchant is making good. Lack of it is interpreted as lack of confidence in one’s business. The firm that does not advertise is classed with the firm that seeks an obscure location in some remote side street, as too small to serve the public efficiently. When a firm advertises freely, |t gives the idea that it has a large trade to pay the expenses of the publicity. A big breezy impression of achievement is conveyed. Nothing succeeds like success. Human nature is such, that to succeed, one must often give the impression that he has already succeeded. The public is slow to deal with propositions that do not suggest successful trade to pay the expenses of the public efficiency. The man who has faith enough to discount the future a little, to put his earnings into his business, and by liberal advertising give the impression of having a big trade already, Is sure to get it if only his goods are right

Study your goods before you spend a cent In advertising them. Find out whht use people make of them. Find out what they are good for and whom they are good for. Tell people what they already know about , them and something more. Answer the questions which will be reasonably asked. —Jed Scarboro.

The Disciplinarian. There is in bur navy a certain rearadmiral, grave, serious-minded, conscientious, who is an excellent disciplinarian. But he had his failures, too. In his younger days he'was greatly distressed by the carelessness of his charming wife! She had pinned her silk petticoat in the back until there was a great frayed place at the band. She edntinued to wear the petticoat, however, although her efforts to keep on pinning it at the frayed place always" evoked a little storm of irritation and temper. In vain her husband urged her to mend it. Finally he decided that the only way to reform his wife was to fill her with remorse. So this future commander of battle-ships with his own hands ripped off the old frayed band and sewed on a new one. Then he took it to his wife. She was greatly moved, thanked him, kissed him, and left the room. Presently she came back, her arms laden with garments. “Here are a few more for you, dearest,” she said. “But please don’t hurry about them. Just fix whenever you have time.” And she put seven petticoats on the chair beside him. —Youth s Companion. . Advertise to Boost Population. - A newspaper advertising campaign, in an effort to obtain for Alton, 111., a population of 100,000 within the next ten years, will be inaugurated by the board of trade of Alton, following the phenomenal success of the committee of 55 prominent business men of .that place, who, in the short period of six hours, obtained 407 members, each to pay $25 a year dues for three years. The receipts for the campaign now total more than $30,000. An attempt will be made to increase the membership to at least 500. Each member is asked to pledge -the $25 per year fee for a period of three years. Cosmopolitan New York. New York city, according to the census bureau, has ceased to be an Irish and German city, so far as its foreign born population is concerned, and has become predominantly Italian and Russian. It contains 252,500 Irish, 179,200 Germans, 340,400 Italians, and 485,600 Russians and Finns. Even the Hungarians have passed the Irish, outnumbering them by 13,000.

I kept scratching till the blood came. It kept getting worse, I couldn’t sleep nights any more. It kept itching for about a month, then I went to a doctor and pot some liquid to take. It seemed as if I was going to get better. The itching stopped for about three days, but when it started again, was even worse than before. The eczema Itched so badly I couldn’t stand it any more. “I went to a doctor and he gave me some medicine, but didn’t do any good. We have been having Cuticura Remedies in the house, so I decided to try them. I had been using Cuticura Soap, so I got me a box of Cuticura Ointment, and washed off the affected part with Cuticura Soap three times a day, and then put the Cuticura Ointment on. The first day I put it on, it relieved me of itching so I could sleep all that night. It took about a week, then I could see the scab come off. I kept the treatment up for three weeks, and my eczema was cured. “My brother got his face burned with gun-powder, and he used Cuticura Soap and Ointment. The people all thought he would have scars, but you can’t see that he ever had his face burned. It was simply awful to look at before the Cuticura Remedies (Soap and Ointmefit) cured it.” (Signed) Miss Elizabeth Gehrki, Forrest City, Ark., Oct. 16, 1910.
