CHILDREN MADE HAPPY.

Is there anything more rare, in the
piesent day. than to see q really happy
child? 1t is so rare that it would not
be surprising if, in the not far distant
future, some learned ethnologist should
rise up and solemnly declare the spe-
cies to be extinct. In every home
where there are children, the one
great question seems TO be, what
shall we do to amuse the little ones"
There can be no parent, however poor,
who would deny himself the pleasure
of adding to his child's happiness, and
surely not when he is absolutely GER
tain that the pleasure Of the gift be-
slowed will develop into . positive,
future good. Such . gift, combining
these two elements, Is the ''new kinder
garten or mechanical spelier." some
times called 'the kindergarten at
home"
This toy is without exception the
most interesting aud useful n that
has ever been invented. 1t is based on
the method Of Kindergarten or object
lesson Teachings system which. for
practical usefulness, Is now acknowl-
edged to be superior to all other edu-
cational methods.
1t c~ultivates the growth Of construc-
tive Imagination in children by giving
them word pictures, AMI as an educa-
tional help works like magic, With
this device o child learns to spell and
to read in a msrvelously short space Of
Itime-so short, indeed, that 1t we'll
deserves the nam bestowed upon it by
an enthusiastic teacher, who has given
it a thorough test, ''the royal road to
learning" This toy solves for parents
that most intricate of all problems,
"whst shall we do with the children"
Children who are too young to go to
school, or those who are kept at home
by Indictment weather or slight Illness,
will be able to while away many u
weary hour with this toy. at the same
time relieving the mother from all
care and anxiety. Like their proto-
types, "Helen's babies" who wanted
to ..shee the wheels go wound" they
.au, not only '.shee the wheels go
wound" but make them go. 1t is q
never failing source of delight to every
HID who sees it, being so pretty In
form and SO perfect in its mechanical
movements, Even the fathers and the
mothers-"children but Of q larger
'growth"-become so fascinated with it
that they find It difficult to believe that
they are not really c..ildren once more.

HOW TO ROOT CUTTINGS.

During the summer pruning, or
when reporting plants for the conserv-
atory, there are many slips and cut
tings which are valuable II properly
cared for.
An exchange gives some excellent
suggestions for this work as follows:
There are several ways of roofing
cuttings. In the greenhouse every
thing is rooted in the propagating
bench which is nothing but o shallow
bed Of pure sand, coarse, such as ma
sons use, well pounded down to make
it firm, watered thoroughly before the
cuttings are put in. A stick like a small
meat skewer is held In the left hand, q
hole an inch deep is made with it; with
the right hand a cutting is put in the
hole and firmly pressed in place. This
Is important, as the air must be kept
from the cutting, 70 that it will not
wilt. They are then sprinkled with .
fine rubber sprinkler, and shaded
when the sun shines, uncovered when II
has gone. They need looking after
two or three times . day, and to be
sprinkled if necessary. They will root
in = week or ten days. As soon as the
kOOu8 Iorms even IL July . QuhrtoE VI
an inch long, they are potted of IN the
smallest pots. Thus propagating bed
is easily initiated by . shallow box Of
sand.
Another way to root cuttings il to
take two aower-pots, n six.inch, the
other three. Fill the six-inch partly
with sandy earth, then set in the three
inch so that the rim will come up even
with the top of the former, then fill in
the earth between the pots until sven
insert the cuttings in the earth be-
tween the pots. Put a cork in the
hole in the bottom Of the small pot,
and keep it filed with water, which
will slowly percolate through the 81 les
and keep the cuttings moist. After
the slips are potted, off they should be
shaded q few days, and, when the pots
are full Of roots, repotted as they grow.
Hanging.pots should be started the
first of September, so rs to have them
established before cold weather. Have
the hanging-pot of good size, as a plant
cannot be expected to grow much In a
pot that only holds a teacupful OF
earth.
