PROTECT WILD FLOWERS OF CALIFORNIA So great is the menace to the wild flower life of the United States, lovers of Nature and of Nature's floral beauties have been constrained to form the Wild Flower Preservation Society. This worthy organization is campaigning all the time to save the wild flower from ruthless extinction. Here in California there has been much destructiveness of flower and plant life in the wilds. Some species have become almost extinct, in certain localities, because of the wholly inexcusable practice of plucking the flowers out by the roots. The California poppy and the yucca both suffer greatly from vandalistic treatment from persons who profess to be lovers of nature! Wild flowers and plants should be protected by law as rigorously as birds and wild animals are. In truth, all wild life in the state should be conserved scrupulously. These various forms of fauna and flora are among the chief glories of California. What sights and sounds, impressions and thrills surpass the melody of the birds in the wilds; the variegated blooms of flowers, from the tiny blooms at one's feet to the stately yucca with its rich, creamy gorgeousness; the green of trees and shrubs; and the liveliness of animals running carefree in the wilds? These things enrapture the soul of those who look and listen. Against despoiling, these entrancing features of nature should be preserved. Cupid is an intellectual—judging by the number of college students he ensnares. Political parties are useful only as they are made to be servants, not masters, of the people. blooms of flower from the tiny blooms at one's feet to the stately yucca with its rich, creamy gorgeousness; the green of trees and shrubs; and the liveliness of animals running carefree in the wilds?

Cupid is an intellectual—judging by the number of college students he ensnares. Political parties are useful only as they are made to be servants, not masters, of the people. Life is not what it should be unless it be lived according to well-defined standards of conduct and of aim. The waves of democracy are washing every civilized land under the sun. The nearer human beings live to the laws, lessons and principles of Nature, the happier they are, the healthier and easier they are.

The team was challenged by a rival club last season. The pastor gave a special contribution of $5 to the captain, with the direction that the mohoy should be used to buy bats, balls, gloves, or anything else that might help to win the game. On the day of the game, the pastor was somewhat surprised to observe nothing new in the club's paraphernalia. He called the captain to him. "I don't see any new bats, or balls, or gloves," he said. "We haven't anything like that," the captain admitted. "But I gave you $5 to buy them," the pastor exclaimed. "Well, you see," came the explanation, "you told us to spend it on bats, or balls, or gloves, or anything that we thought might help to win the game, so we gave it to the umpire." A couple of clubmen were speaking of a fellow member when one remarked. "I dislike to say it, but really Reginald is the most egotistical young man I have ever met." "What leads you to say that?" "Why, last week on the occasion of his birthday he sent a collect message congratulating his mother." WHOS WHO IN THE DAY'S NEWS MISS EDITH PICTON-TUBER-VILLE THE MOULDS IN WHICH GOOD POETRY IS CAST The materials of good poetry collected and produced by the powers of observation and description, sensibility, reflection, imagination, fancy and judgment, are cast, by means of various moulds, into divers forms. The moulds were enumerated and the forms specified by William Wordsworth, in the following order: "The Narrative,—including the historic poem, the tale, the romance, the mock-heroic, and if the spirit of Homer will tolerate such neighborhood, that dear production of our days (Wordsworth here refers to the period of the Romantic Movement in England—the early eighteen hundreds), the metrical novel. Of this class, the distinguishing mark is that the narrator however liberally his speaking agents be introduced, is himself the source from which everything primarily flows. Epic poets, in order that their mode of composition may accord with the elevation of their subject, represent themselves as singing from the inspiration of the Muse, but this is a fiction, in modern times, of slight value; the Illad or the Paradise Lost would gain little in estimation by being chanted. The other poets who belong to this class are commonly content to tell their tale;—so that of the whole it may be affirmed that they neither require nor reject the accompaniment of music. "The Dramatic,—consisting of tragedy, historic, drama, comedy, and the masque, in which the poet does not appear at all in his own person, and where the whole action is carried on by speech and dialogue of the agents; music being introduced only incidentally and rarely. The opera may be placed here, inasmuch as it proceeds by dialogue; though depending, to the degree that it does upon music it has a strong claim to be ranked with the lyrical. The characteristic and impassioned Epistle, of which Ovid and Pope have given examples, considered as species of monodrama, may without impropriety, be placed in this class. "The Lyrical,—containing the hymn, the ode, the elegy, the song, and the ballad; in all which, for the production of their full effect an accompaniment of music is indispensable. "The Idyllium,—descriptive chiefly either of the processes and "What leads you to say that?" "Why, last week on the occasion of his birthday he sent a collect message congratulating his mother." MISS EDITH PICTON-TUBER-VILLE Twenty years ago Edith Picton Tuberville left an ancestral home in Glamorgan, Wales, and the luxuries it afforded to labor among the poor of London's salums. She now ranks as one of England's foremost women, famous as a speaker on religious, social and political questions as well as for her settlement work. She is now in the U.S., principally to attend the women's peace conference in Washington and meetings of the international Y.W.C.A., of which she is a director. She is the daughter of Col. Picton-Tuberville. The home at Glamorgan was given by the crown to Sir Palms Tuberville in 1901. While laboring with the poor families in the London concentrated district, Miss Tubervill attended a theological school. A few years later she went to Bombay and her work among the Indian women there attracted worldwide attention. Six years later she returned to England to devote most of her time to the religious and speaking platform. She is now the first woman in England to preach under the sanction of the Episcopal church. He who expects his doctor to make a correct diagnosis and prescribe a cure during the course of a short visit, has profound faith in his doctor's ability.
