# STRONG SUPPORT.

Furniture that is not pleasing to
the eye is fit for nothing but a barn
Eleganceis one thing and strength
is another, but there is not the
least reason why the two should not
90 together in furniture. To say
that a thing is cheap does not nee
essarily make it cheap. To say
that our furniture is cheap scarcely
does it justice. 1t fills the bill in
attractiveness and cheapness.

That many who should do so, do not advertise

which he spent most of his time in
smoothing rehectively.

could give 'em all points,

"Do you mean to say that you couldn't
tell the editor how to run his paper?' ex-
claimed the kicker in tone that had alb

the oasis earnestly.

The Growing Hand" For Plants

1T seems Incredible" said George
Marsh to the corridor man at the La
cledc, "that there should be such a thing
as "a growing hand i'll the planting of
flowers and other plants, but it is recog-
nized even by florists, and it has grown
tohave regular name. Some people will
read directions for preparing the soil
and planting the seed or slips and fol-
low them faithfully, and yet nothing
will grow, or if it grows at all it will be
stunted and almost worthless, while an
other, without half the care and trouble,
will have everything live and thrive.
Il saw a little girl bring back what
appeared to be worthless sticks of some
plants which she had found in the
woods. Her mother wanted them to
live, and selecting the best she planted
and tended them with the greatest care
The little girl took the ones that had
been discarded and started Il little gar
den, as she called it, of her own. The
ones that received the attention died.
Those which the little girl stuck into the
ground lived and subsequently bloomed
1t would appear as if plants had an affin-
ity for some people and not for Others"
