Guinea Grass.
The florida Aqriculturist::

Editor Of The Florida AgTtcuHuTtSt;
L send you two short articles,
clipped from the Louisville Courier
Journal, one OF the party halls from
Arkansas and the other from Ala
bama. They seem to be very enthu-
siastic on the sabject Of Guinea grass,
but, as you will perceive. not IN the
way that most persons are. Do you
suppose that they have the same
kind of grass we have here by that
name? If it is l have somewhat
misunderstood its nature, for | had
supposed it could be very easily des-
troyed when so desired. Please
publish those articles and ask your
Florida subscribers if any of them
have had such experiences as those
two afflicted ones.

had brought her into their simple life
for months visit with her French
maid and dresses, her jewels and
tallals, which won the heart OF her
little namesake. Since then Uncle
Johns widow had become a sort of
gilded creature, always young and
always beautiful; for, though Miss
Della had received little gifts from
time to time across the seas for the
last fifteen years, she had neither
heard nor seen anything of the being
who had inspired her youthful imagi-
nation, and was quite uncertain If
such a person as Mrs. John Roger
son was in the land of the living.
Dead or alive she seemed 10 have no
material difference in Delia's hum
drum life. After having nursed her
father through long illness, Della
found that he had left heavy mort
gage on the homestead, and her
mother and herself on the high road
to the poor house, unless they should
bestir themselves. AS her mother
was already bedridden, the stirring
naturally tell upon Della, and she
advertised for summer boarders:

chambers, broad piazzas, fine views, berries

And so Delia's first boarder ar

out her wisp of gray hair and cno-
fided the false front. to box.
