This is a little arrangement of gum
paper which fastens around the base
of the flower and holds it in shape.
As it is of the right shade of green
It is not noticed by the customer.
Some florists only use the paper
calyx while the flower Is growing and
remove it before the flower leaves the
shop. Others have iiscov-ETed that
these artificial calyxes keep the blos-
soms in good condition longer so they
are utilized extensively on 'the cut
flowers used or decorations. Small
tissue paper caps have also been de-
vised to prevent roses from opening
too soon. These however do not
eeem as practical as the artificial
calyxes for carnations and as yet are
not in general use.
Requires Constant Study.
The florists' trade requires a con-
stant study of popular tendencies for
it now extends Into channels unknown
The demand for

floral decorations was never so great
and the progressive florist is Constantly
on the alert for new ideas that will

rroduction of the ruins of the Porurn
which could be used in floral decora-
tion. Representations of the stones at
the ton and base as well as several of
the broken pillars provide receptacles J
for flowers and this bit of classic aiv
formed an attractive window piece
during the past winter.
Even funeral pieces require jmore
skill and ingenuity than in thet con-
TontinTiJil nillow. wreath cross or an
chor that filled the needs a fw years
ago. One of the most elaborate fu-
neral pieces ever produced in this
country was the floral world made last
month by a firm in the west. It was
ordered for the funeral of a publisher
of a periodical called "The World" and
consisted of an immense globe showing
the continents formed of violets filled
in with white carnations to represent
the oceans. This piejee has been ex-
tensively photographed and was much
admired as a unique and beautiful de-
sign. Tire Annual Flower Show.
The great annual flower show held
by the American Florists' society in
Boston at the beginning of this month
was in many respects the greatest ex-
hibition of its kind evervheld in the
world. The expenses were fabulous
and never were such elaborate prepa-
rations made to include flowers from
every part of the country. One dealer
required five cars by fast freight to
handle his exhibit and a number of
others paid for one or more cars by
express. The societies representing the
different flowers vied -with each other
In achieving wonderful results from a
single variety. Large florists' firms
secured their best effects by the mass-
ing of many varieties in a single booth.
Great Britain sent 12 representatives
to this show because the floral trade
between this country and England is
affiliating more closely than that of
most other channels. These English-
n en are still in America. Before leav-
ing they will visit the leading floral
establishments in the largest Ameri- j
cin cities in the hope of obtaining new
ideas which will be lielpful to their
own trade.
With the increase in the demand
for flowers comes an almost new trade
in the provision of receptacles for their
delivery. Florists' boxes for cut flow-
ers grow more beautiful -each season
and novelties must be found to meet
every demand. Heart shaped boxes
are needed for the valentine bunches
of violets and boxes carrying Christ-
mas flowers must suggest in some
way the spirit of Yuletlde. Wrapping
flowers in bark is a new Idea much
admired Birch and cedar bark Is used
for smaller flowers while a variety of
cork bark serves to protect the long-
stemmed American Beauty. Specially
prepared boxes with "dead air cells"
are provided for shipping flowers long
distances.

THE COUNTESS MESH
HE DEFENCE OF THE
(Continued from previous page.)
few nights ago a resolution was passed
which was to be forwarded to the asso-
ciated chamber in London containing
the following extraordinary statements:
"That the fancy and other textile trades
of this country are gravely injured by
the extravagant and grotesque vagaries
of Paris fashion and it would conduce
to greater stability and diminished
losses in these trades If legitimate
leaders of English society were to set
the fashion for English women's
dresses Instead of adopting those set
by irresponsible persons in Paris."
I -would like to ask In w at way are
the fancy and other textile trades of
this country injured by the harem skirt?
1 confess to the crime of possessing one
and so far I may claim to be an author-
ity on the subject. It .is made of
rBritish clotn s trimmed with British
buttons and has been made by a British
firm of dressmakers. I deny the man
in the street to detect that it is a di-
vlded skirt as the legs are wide and
iwe ii-iu two puiieis n-iu- are DUl-
T toned half way down hide the division.
I can walk comfortably without being
weighed down with quite unnecessary
material and there Is no dragging of
cloth to hamper my movements.
The Loss to the Trade.
Of course anyone even the most sim-
ple can see one loss to the trade. Less
material is used for this really grace-
ful and healthy garment; but I should
judge not much less than that used
for the skirt which was worn three
years ago and a great deal more than
the amount used for the hobble skirt
of last year which I acknowledge was
both ugly and hampering to free move-
ment. But it had the advantage ot
being inches off the ground.
Now I should like to know why wo-
men should be obliged to so on wear-
ing jards of unnecessary cloth in or-
der to help the "trade." when they
would prefer to be garbed in a health-
ful hygienic garment which is a pleas-
ure to themselves and the onlooker.
The women who go to extremes and
wear a gathered up bag around the
ankles like the pjcture we have of i
Morleena Fenwig's extremities will be
mobbed and the ugliness of the gar-
ment calls for punishment. But its
very hideousness will destroy this type
and the panel-hiding dividing skirt
will be the one most universally adopt-
ed and worn.
None of the designs for evening wear
that I have seen are either beautiful
or necessary. One does not want to
stride about a house and the huge
clumsy riffles of satin which the de-
signs show gathered round the ankle
only serve to make large feet look
bigger and disfigurevsmall ones. I am
sure it would be quite easy to have
a drapery flowing and graceful to cov-
er the divided skirt possessing the
necessary number of yards to satisfy
the demands of the "trade" and so
relieve their minds from the burden
of the dread of the disaster from
-which they are now suffering. But
man-like they rush into extremes
through fright and perhaps this common-sense
statement may help to as-
sure them that this new change in
women's dress is not "extravagant"
but of a sensible nature and what uie
"trade" loses in yards will be made
up to the nation in the improved health
of its womankind which will mean a
happier state of things all round.
Of one thing I am assured that the
harem skirt has come to stay and that
it will prove one of the factors in the
emancipation of women which is he
secret of its interest for me.
Fair Warning.
To a brother noted for length and
drought who was to preach an official
sermon in his pulpit Henry Ward
Beecher qnietty said as they were
seated upon the platform: "Right un-
der your feet is a genuine Baptist pool.
It is of orthodox dimensions and is half
full of water. The spring is under my
foot. If the preacher is dry and long.
I touch the spring and let him in."

Never-never Land.
The Australian of the cities speaks
of the rest of his continent as "the
bush." The dwellers in the agricul-
tural country speak of the district far-
ther inland as the "back country."
Those themselves in the back country
have behind them a land partly un-
known and therefore attractive to the
1 adventurous which they call the "Nev
er-never land." London Saturday Re-
