 time gardens is one ever sweet to those whose liv- 

 es were lived in such surroundings, and while the 

 "modern" Irises if we may use the term, will re- 

 mind one of the old days, they, too, like everything 

 else of these days have yielded to the influence or 

 improvement, and there has been evolved a race of 

 flowers absolutely bewildering in glory of their 

 form and color.
