Odd Bridal Boquet.
A bridal boquet made of flow
ers one year old is the product of
;a New York florist. At a little
distance the flowers seem as
sresh as if they had just been
igathered.
The florist was head gardener
rla the botanical gardens at Vien
.na when the Grand Duchess Va
Jerie was married, and he was
4
ordered to preserve her boquet.
.Each lily of the valley had to be
itaken apart, its petals pressed,
;and pasted together again. The
tedious prdce required a whole
;year. It seemed a waste of time
even to please the daughter of
.an emperor.
So the next time the head gar--dener
was called upon to pre
serve a royal wedding boquet he
:took it to the springs at Carlsbad
rand dipped it into the mineral
water. The flowers did not
wither, but they had a petrified
Jook, and their whiteness was
'.turned to a dingy yellow.
Reproved for his lack of skill,
the gardener went home and be
vgan a series of experiments that
iasted seven years before he was
.satisfied with results. He did
aiot patent his process, but kept
it secret, so that not even his
3iead workman knows how to ob
rtain his results.
As made up, the flowers are
;iied in a great cluster, surround
ed by Farleyanse fern, with a
tshower of tiny clusters knotted
at intervals into long streamers
.of narrow white ribbon. The
fboquet is finished with a great
'bow of white satin ribbon .and a
jfall of real antique lace.
'Flanking the strange bridal
Jboquet are two very effective
ibridesmaid's bouquets. One is
imade of pink sweet-peas, the
.cluster surrounded by maiden
ihair fern and tied with a big bow
of pink ribbon, from which fall
streamers of narrower pink rib
,boa with the single flowers knot
ted in at intervals. The stems
of these flowers are cut off short.
A pompadour bouquet was of
ink sweet peas tied with blue.
A lavender boquet tied with
lavender ribbon was intended
for the bride's mother. Scarcely
less lovely than the conventional
shower of sweet peas and or
chids was the cluster of white
roses with tiny buds tied into its
streamers, intended for the bride
who prefers the sort of bouquet
her grandmother picked in her
own garden on her wedding
.morning.

The Perfect Laxative
For Elderly People
Afro has its attractions no less than
youth in a more serene and quieter life.
lint it is this very life of rest without
sufficient exercise that brings with it
those disorders that arise from in
activity. Chief of these are a chronic,
persistent constipation.
Most elderly people are troubled in
this way, with accompanying symptoms
of belching-, drowsiness after eating-,
headaches and general lassitude. Fre
auently there is difficulty of digesting:
even light food. Much mental trouble
ensues, as it is hard to find a suitable
remedy. First of all the advice may be
ijiven that elderly people should not use
salts, cathartic pills or powders, waters
or any of the more violent purgatives.
What they need, women as well as men,
is a mild laxative tonic, one that is
pleasant to take and yet acts without
griping.

What Killed Them?
Hundreds of years ago in a loft
in old Tobard inn, Southwark,
England, a cat was killed mys
teriously just as she caught and
was about to eat -wo rats. One
she had in her jaws, the other
she was pinning down with her
foot.
How death came is not known,
but it came insuch a form that
cat and rats alike were mummi
fied. For centuries the group
stood in the same position unrier
the rafters, hidden from sight.
The passage' of time made no dif
ference to their state, and when
the old inn was pulled down they
were at last discovered.
This cat and her victims are
now in a glass case in the office
of W. Le. May, the hop factor,
in Southwark. The cat is still
holding the rats, and their skins
are still intact. The rat which is
held in the cat's claws has its
mouth open just as it had when
it had when it started to squeal
before death overtook them all.
