respondence.
1t takes a poet or woman to con-
dense into the few brief sentences of
the conventional note the comprehen-
sive message of congratulation or con-
dolence, the elegant acceptance of in
vitation or the exquisite refusal which
never offends. Some one has called
women 1.-THE genius of 'epistolary com
ruunication" and indeed the gift of
graceful letter writing is one peculiar
to women, handed down from mother
to daughter through the mystery of
heredty. Certain regulations govern
these apparently spontaneous produce
tons, even as Browning sonnet in all
its mysticism conforms to the require
ments of verse structure. In the first
place, the note elegant is not written
upon the convenient correspondence
card" but upon small sheet of thick
cream paper. either glazed or rough,
according as the writer's taste inclines.
The sheet has at the top the street and
number of the lady's address in plain
letters, the name of her country
home. or the town in which
she lives If it is so small as
to be without numbered houses. The
sheet is folded once and enclosed in a
square envelope, and is more elegant
and ceremonial if sealed with wax. As
to the chirography, that which is most
illegible is most stylish. If a woman
can not correct her unfortunate habit
of writing so that people can read it in
any other way, she uses a quill pen,
which generally brings about the de-
sired result The great feature of the
stylish hand is that II has no curves,
but is sharply pointed and the letters
are closely crowded together. The rea-
son why this style of writing is consid-
cred elegant is that it can not from its
formation be written hastily. Any ev-
idence of haste is considered inelegant,
whether it manifests itself in a careless
toilet or a careless note. The note be-
gins on the first page, skips to the
fourth. and finishes up by being writ
ten across the sheet on the inside
pages This is one of the things it is
well for a man to remember, for some
times the words of the fourth page are
not read at all. as the signature is on
the third and complications arise
thereby.
One thing for a woman to remember
is that she can never afford to write a
careless note, for some enc is certain 10

Water the specimens thoroughly and
remove to a shady place to prevent too
rapid evaporating.
Before their final disposition the
boxes should be filed with soil level
with the top; boards should then be
placed to form cover and to protect
the ball from fracture, and strong pro
lection strips nailed across this cover.
Whatever sized boxes are used, they
should be uniform in shape and proper
tionately on the same lines as in the
example here given. Some deep-rooted
specimens will require boxes of greater
depth.
The illustrations herewith show the
style of box best adapted for the re-
moval of specimen plants. The box
represented is the one most commonly
used for good-sized specimens. but the
dimensions must necessarily vary ac-
