SENATOR REED AND SEEDS. 



The florists ' slogan and free seeds 

 both came in for widespread publicity 

 Inst week in the course of a tilt between 

 a St. Louis woman, Mrs. F. A. Eeid, 

 and the senator from Missouri, whose 

 name is pronounced the same as the 

 lady's, but spelled differently. 



Mrs. Reid, who is president of the 

 Democratic Lengue of St. Louis, has 

 not been a supporter of Senator Reed 

 for several years. Her letter to the sen- 

 ator followed receipt of a jiackage of 

 flower seeds under the fiaiik of the 

 senator. Inquiry by her disclosed that 

 a number of women of her acquaintance 

 have for the first time also received 

 seeds from Senator Reed. In the let- 

 ter she said: "Since you have sliown 

 an inclination to 'Say It with Flowers' 

 to the Democratic women voters of 

 Missouri, the varieties named below 

 would be most appropriate." Then she 

 set forth a variety of flowers, giving 

 reasons why she" thought them appro- 

 priate. 



When asked for a reply to .Mrs. Reid 's 

 letter, Senator Reed said: "The gra- 

 ciousness with which a lady accepts a 

 courtesy is always an index to her char- 

 acter and culture." 



Considerable newspaper space was 

 given to the letter by Mrs. Reid and 

 also to the senator's 'reply, and "Say 

 It with Flowers" and free seeds ap- 

 [leared in the headlines. 



Eureka, Kan. — L. Vanhaverbeke is

 dresses. Mr. Vanhaverbeke has not 

 been in Europe for twenty years.
