She stepped into his room and pres

1t was evidently what he wanted.
''Ah, thank you, my man-ah, now
would you tell the proprietor of the

The design of ''Cassell's Popular
Gardening edited by D. T. Fish and
published by Casscll 4 Co., is to bring
knowledge of the best gardening
practice, and of the principles on
which it is based, within easy reach of
the people at large. The fullest and
latest information is given on such
subjects as the building of walls; the
planting of hedges; the formation and
furnishing of the vegetable, flower and
fruit:gardens; the laying out of orchards,
pleasure grounds, strawberries, plan
tations, garden landscapes, and the
propagation by every known means
of all the plants of the garden. The
cultivation of flowers and decorative
plants is treated of from various points
of view, while the general formation of
the flower garden, with methods of
keeping up an attractive display
throughout the changing seasons, is
thoroughly discussed.
To run hot-bcd needs good deal
of care and attention, and nobody
should attempt it unless they are will
ing to give the time and attention.
The beds must be covered up at night
with mats and shutters, must be aired
on sunny days, and watered whenever
needed; the neglect of these particulars
will spoil the whole thing in single
