Vick's Floral Guide,

We have received from JAMES WICK, Roches
ter, n. Y. his FLORAL GUIDE, which in beaut,
of appearance and convenience of arrangement
surpasses anything in the line which we have
ever had the privilege of seeing before 1t is ;
pamphlet eight by ten inches In size, and witt
the covers, which are by no means tho least i'm
portant part of it, contains an even one hundred
pages. Although called a "floral guide" it is
DEVOTED to vegetables as well, and Includes as
full a list and description of both flowers, yepe
tables and also small fruits as could be brought
within the compass of book of this SIZE
In all that the Vicks have undertaken their aim
seems to have been to attain as near to absolute
perfection as possible, and probably no one ever
did so much towards bringing the cultivation OF
flowers to the high standard which it has now
attained as did the head of this firm
The firm takes the same pride in raising choice
vegetables as in developing attractive varites of
flowers, and after using their seeds for a number
of year we are able to recommend them in the
highest terms.
We advise all our readers to send 10 cents for
the Guide (Which can be deducted from first
order) and if there are any of our lady friends
who can succeedin growing a natural rose which
Will compare In beauty with the New Striped
Rose shown in the illustration, we should like to
receive an invitation to call and see it.

old actress went to him in distress. In
former years he had known her father
and respected him. Touched by her an
peal for assistance, he lent her large
sum of money, with the almost certain
knowledge that he would never get it
back again. 1t was never made public:
no one knew of it but the receiver and
myself. The Forrest home has done much
good, and is likely to do more; and those
actors who either by age or by infrmi-
ties have been debarred the privilege of
following their profession will naturally
be grateful for this rich legacy.
Even IN the days of his theatrical fame
and prosperity Forrest was an austere
man, and as he grew older he became
morbidly misanthropical, holding him
sell aloof from all but his most intimate
friends. The latter part of his life was
embittered, too, by illness and the loss
OF public favor. Until the closing wears
OF his career he had been blessed with
perfect health; this became suddenly
shattered, and the unexpected attack
wrecked his dramatic power. He might
nave borne the stroke of illness. but TO
one whose imperious nature could not
brook the faintest slight the loss of pub.
nc admiration was heavy blow; one,
zoo, that would have shocked a wiser
and more even tempered man than Ed
