 house, will make the links one of the 

 prettiest spots in the capital city.

 large force beautifying and renovating 

 the campus at the university. The ad- 

 dition of several fountains has been a 

 needed help to the appearance of this 

 beautiful park.

 the midst of the tuberose shipping sea- 

 son. They ship as far as Memphis and 

 New Orleans, stock traveling this dis- 

 tance in first-class condition. It is a 

 great help to florists at a time when 

 the cry is for anything white.

 quarters, and is doing a rushing business 

 in addition to looking after her regular 

 trade. Cactus.
