and celebrated the event by spreading
large table with the luxeries of the sea-

There need be no doubt that Mr.. K. was

successful in his enterprise, if those

So many people say that their flowers which,
once did well do not thrive any more and the
reason is incomprehensible to them. In many
cases the trouble is from WORKOUT soil; and il a
little manure, or little fresh earth be added
occasionally, II Is wonderful what an effect it
will have on the reviewed. growth, OF half worm
out root-stOcks. Some Kinds Of flowers es-
pecially. soon grow surly and bad-tempered
unless they have. a complete change of earth
once in awhile. The verbena is of this charac-
ter. In perfectly fresh soil, that is earth which
has never brown verbena before, it grows like

that the yerbena won't do for US as il used to

Other flowers are not quite so stubbornly fss-

like to feel rejuvenated by an addition of some
kind occasionally to the earth-bessings they
have always been treated to- SO =
Almost all our best hardy flowers are natives

1t would be impossible, with mere words
alone, TO convey any adequate idea OF the action
of this newborn child Of the Arctic frosts.
Think of a solid lump OF ice, third of mile
deep, and more than half mIic i'm lateral
diameter, hurled, like mere toy, away into the
v water, and set to rolling to- apd fro by the i'm
toot-ball;-how down one side, until the huge
bulk Was nearly capsized; then back again; then
down the other side once more with the same
unresiSting force; and 50 on, up and down, aud
down and up, sN ashing to aud fro for hours
before it comes finally to rest. Picture this,
ana You win have an Image OF power not to be
earth. The disturbance of the water was in
Onceiyably fine. Waves of enormous magni-
tude were rolled up with great violence against
the glacier, covering it with spray; pillows came
by the cracking and crumbIinx ice, which
was everywhere in state OF widest agitation
for the space Of several miles; Over the
smaller icebergs the water broke COM
pletely, as If tempest were piling up the
seas, and heaving them fercely against the
shore. Then, to add still further the COM
motion thus occasioned, the great, wallOwing
iceberg, which was the cause OF it all was drop,
ping fragments from its sides with each oscilla-
ton, the reports Of the rupture reaching the ear
above the general din and clamor. Other bergs
dropped pieces from their sides; aud at last, as
if it were the grand finale Of the piece,-the
clash Of cymbals, and the big bass drum OF ma
lures grand orchestra,-a monstrOus berg near
the middle of the ford split in two; and above
the sound Of breaking waters and falling ice
this last disruption filed the air with peal that
rang among the bergs and crsgs, and, echOng
from hill to hill, died awy only in the void be-
yond the mountain top; while, to the noisy tune,
the icebergs Of the ford danced their wild, un-
calmly dance upon the waters. 1t was many
hours before this state Of wild unrest was sue
ceeded by the calm, which had preceded the
commencement Of it; and when, at length, the
iceberg that had been born came quietly to rest,
and the other icebergs had ceased their dance
