THE LANGUAGE OF FLOWERS.
ED['l‘OR[AI.LY The Press conuucnts on the possibilities fur
doing good and giving pleasure which the hulnblest dweller
in tile suburhs has within his grasp:
.

rncniorial blossoms. They pass in a day, but the honor and
the aflectiou for which they stand niltlasl all time.
“The living have their claim nu lt- -than the dead, Those
who have Howers and enjoy l‘ are little aware how large is
the number of those who are witlloul them. The great des-
rrts nl small dwellings which vovur ncrcs and square miles in L
the city are often wholly without the sight of a leaf or blos-
soul.
outlying towns than l>hiladclpi.ia."
, , an
The women of the main line have for a number of years
been banded together for thc ptlrlmsc nl distributing flowers in
as mentioned by The Press. Noticcahle among these organi-
zatiousis the I-Iaverford Flower Mission, which every year,
throughout the summer rnoiitlis sends large consignments
of beautiful bloomsto I‘llilarlelpllia, where they are mostly
tlislribulell in the hospitals, anti tlnily shed a wealth oHra-
grzmce among the sick and suilerillg. The garlands sent by
tlrcsc women out of the abullllttllce or lloral beauty by which
they are surrounded is one of the greatest pleasures they find
in living in the suburbs.
ll every woiuau would distrihntc thc llnwcrs which grow
all about her, the desert wastes of the city which lies so near
our doors u-nuld blossom like the r0sc4
“The world is made better hy every ilowcr that brings a
smile," and through the summer lllulltlls every flower taken
tn the city and given away would uicct this appointed allies of
generous bcauty. -
New Year: State was later tllan Perulsyli-nnia in beginning
the agitation for good roads, but it has got ahead of us in
tl cir actual construction. That State does not alll the local-
his as liberally as Pennsylvania, as it pays one-half instead
of tvvo-thirds of the cost; it never made such a magnificent ap- on
]t>l'lIpl’l1l(iOn for good roads, $6,500,000 in a single item, but it
is going ahead laster than this Stine in securing the roads.
New York State has appropriated for good roads all told
32,065,000. This is exclusive of the l1r,5oo,ooo
for improved roads which has recently been approved
Govcrlmr Odell. The counties and towns have expended a
like sum; 242 miles have been built and 242 more are in pro the l I
ccss of construction. This is substantial progress. The city
of Rochester, which believes in trcc-lined rtrects and possess- -
cs and enjoys them, is eudcavoring to have tlle improved M 0
country roads entering the city lined with trees. It is pro
posed to plant: a certain number of trees each year until the
chief country roads are lined with thclufrom Rochester to the i‘ “
county line.
The old dirt roads required lint sunshine to dry them u
quickly after each rain. The shade of trees interfered with
this, hence their almost total ahscuce from the majority of
American roads. Improved rourls don't get muddy, but the
glare of sun upon them is often offensive. The foe of im-
proved roads is not surface mud, hut unseen soft grauud un-
tlcrneiith. Here the roots of trees do service.
volume and is constant.‘ ‘Thai! roots nlust supply this, and
to do so they nnderdrairi the soil; and, if the water is not ex- up
cus.-live, they are able to keep the foundations of the stone
road solid. ‘ v r - r : ,
The shade these wayside trees supply is gratefuhto man
and beast. They make at desert strip a lhing of beauty, and
their roots draw oil the excessive moisture from the founda-
tions of the road. We have no doubt the planting of trees
will follow the improveulcnt of tlle roads alid make our courts
try highways long parks or shady lanes. The most intelli-
gent localities will have them Hrst, when by force of example
they will spread all over the land. Pt-unsylvania ought to get
ill early and line her improved roads with trees from the start.
