train pulls out there are just two more 

 of the many interesting things that 

 must be mentioned. One is the pretty 

 block of roses; Maman Cochet was 

 particularly pretty. The other is that 

 wonderful new geranium. Helen

Various Notes. 



Gerard Kruijff, of the firm of Van 

 Waveren & KruijflE, Sassehheim, Hol- 

 land, has been in this city this week. 

 Mr. Kruijff spent Sunday at the city by 

 the sea. 



Aaron Bassett, son of J. Murray Bas- 

 sett, Hammonton, N. J., is in the At- 

 lantic hospital suffering from a bullet 

 wound in the abdomen, the result of an 

 accident. The surgeons have decided 

 not to attempt to remove the bullet. 



F. W. Kummer, of Charleston, S, C, 



who was here last week, says that 



■iliaman Cochet is largely depended upon 



for pink and white roses outdoors in the 



south. 



Henry R. Brown, Mrs. Brown and a 

 friend, all from Lynchburg, Va., were 

 here this week. 



W. W. Scholtz, of Chatlotte, N. C, 

 was among our recent visitors. 



Cornelius van der Breggan took off 

 every bud and flower on the plants of 

 the new geranium, Helen Michell, under 

 his care, just before going on his vaca- 

 tion recently. Upon his return, in a 

 week or so, the plants were again 

 covered with bloom. 



The loss sustained by August Doem- 

 ling, of Lansdowne, in the blow of 

 August 10, was not nearly so great as 

 reported two weeks ago. The houses 

 were speedily repaired and reglazed. 



Choice flowers in the market this 

 week are the showy red gladioli of 

 Berger Bros., the fancy asters of the 

 Philadelphia Cut Flower Co., and the 

 pretty snapdragons of William J. 

 Baker. Phil.

There really is only one, but an obsti- 

 nate one, and that is the lethargy and 

 disinterestedness of the men who will 

 be mostly benefited by this change. "I 

 should worry. It is good enough for 

 me. It has been that way for over 

 twenty-five years." This and other say- 

 ings of men who should take a keener 

 interest in such affairs is the real stum- 

 bling block, but to men of this class I 

 want to say: Do you realize where 

 progress in this world would be if we 

 kept on that platform! We would be 

 living in a cave and wearing fig leaves 

 for clothes. No, sir; we must advance, 

 and this craving for better conditions 

 and facilities is what brings about prog- 

 ress. Don't think bwiause you are a
