ment, yet it has grown so well and IS now
SO handsome that possibly description OF
its culture may contain a helpful hint for
some one. Any achania plant will fiowef,
but there is a vast difference between a
lank, struggling stem in blossom and
large compact plant full Of vigorous
branches, each one crowned with clusters
of flowers and buds innutnerable. think
the secret of keeping this shrub compact
and branching, lies in persistent nipping.
When my achania was only ten inches high
t pinehed out the top. Side branches were
soon thrown out, and when these had
grown into nice proportion with the main
stem they were pinched out as we'll. Soon
another stalk was thrown up from the root,
this was allowed to grow as tall as the CEN
trail zone, then it, too, was shortened, and this
one Is now throwing out several side
branches, some of them being already in
bud. Seven of the older branches are
loaded with flowers and buds, and the TO-
liage is so large and rich that it forms a
beautiful screen. All summer, and until
late in November, this large plant was
grown in a tomato tin, the plant was then
Towering profusely, but the leaves were be-
ginning to turn yellow, so it was decided to
give it larger quarters. A red-hot iron
was run up the seam of tin until it melted
apart, and the plant was then placed care
fully in ten-inch pot and fresh earth
filled in around it. 1t was not in the least
disturbed, but has continued Towering with
even increased vigor The tin can was so
full of strong roots that they had grown up
ward to the surface of the soil. The flow
ers are of brilliant scarlet, very much like
those of fuchsia turned upward, and each
one lasts quite long time. The foliage
is very much like that of the abutilon.
do not think the achania requires much
water; many times through the summer
mine became so dry that the leaves dropped
as if withered, but good drink soon re-
vived them. After it began Towering I
did not allow it to dry out entirely, and
once week I now give it d little weak fer
tilizer of hen manure, and the plant shows
keen appreciation of this treatment

weeks they were to little Fred. but at last
his flower treasures had really come, and
Fred was kept busy many day helping
mamma find old tin cans and boxes, and then
getting good dirt in which to set the dear
new flowers.
The roses were his special charge, and
he never tired of tending them, digging
around them with an old fork, watering
them until they we're sometimes flooded,
and watching anxiously for a bud. At
length when the long, warm, summer days
came, little bud peeped out on one of the
rose bushes. When Fred first found it, he
rushed wildly into the house screaming, al
most shouting, 20, Mamma, rose. a rose!
Come and see my rose bud. >"
Mamma, almost as much excited and as
glad as Freddie himself. ran out to look at
and rejoice with him over the little pink
speck wrapped so carefully in its green
cloak.
It was not long after that before the lit
tie boys heart was made glad by the sight
of roses of all the colors he loved so much
all those he had tended SO lovingly in his
Northern home. No sad eyes now, no pale
cheeks, but bright smiles, roses in cheeks,
cherries on lips, bounding footsteps and
happy days.
Of course, not very many children have
the deep, absorbing love for flowers this
child had, but 1 believe one can scarcely
find boy or girl who is not made happier
and more in love with life by the CHEEKY
presence of flowers in the home.
In later years the sight of little flower,
however modest and unprized, which grew
in mothers garden, brings rush OF ten
der memories. We reverently touch it
with our lips and the sweet, placid face,
which never wore frown for us, now
sleeping in some far away cemetery, comes
before our tear blurred eyes, and our
hearts are stirred with tenderness as we
sigh for the dear old home, with its wealth
of roses and phlox, and marigolds, and old
time radiant boomers
Let me urge upon you, mothers. to Gull
tivate flowers If you are busy, take lit
tie time for this Believe me, it is time
we'll spent Interest your children in them
Give them beds of flowers for their own
and see what an interest you will awaken
in their young minds. If you have girls. it
will make them sweeter and more loving;
if you have boys, it will teach them gentle
nese and womanly tenderness. My sister
readers, if you have neither merry girls
nor romping boys. cultivate flowers for
your own happiness. 1t will give you great
pleasure and will occupy many moments
which must otherwise hang heavily on your
hands. lARHEEL.

forcibly illustrated by the following incl
dent:
A few years since, a gentleman and his
wife and little boy of five years, moved to
a rather thinly settled portion of Florida
The gentleman had come few weeks pre-
vious to look around" After due con-
sideration, he purchased an old settled
place, With few acres of cleared land
To this place he had brought his wife and
little boy
Little Freddy, though so young, was
passionately fond of flowers and as his
strong love for them came to be observed,
many gifts of rare and beautiful flowers
came to him until he had quite collection
of his own. He had pleaded long and
earnestly to be allowed to take his pets.
with him, but papa had coaxed him to
leave them, promising that when he
reached Florida, he should pick lovely.
yellow oranges from the trees for HIMSELF
and eat all he wanted
1t was quite dark when the family
reached their new home, so Fred had no
time for the usual delightful investigations
so dear to the heart of the small boy, but
fell asleep with bright visions Of golden or
anges which he was to pick for himself
from the big tree by the front corner of
the house.
Very early the following morning Fred
die was up and at work with an old rake
he had found in the yard, pulling the beau
tiful oranges. For few days he was SO
occupied in helping mama unpack and
straighten around little, and eating or
anges between times, that he seemed not
to notice the miserable baroness and DESC
lation of the place. His mother felt it
keenly but brave woman that she was, she
kept her sad feelings to herself aud laughed
and chatted with her little boy as though
she we're the happiest woman on earth.
Bye and bye, however, Freddie began to
grow quiet and sad-eyed. He was restless
and would follow his mother around in all
her daily duties mutely appealing to her
for companionship and sympathy He
never complained, but each day grew sad
der and more quiet and could scarcely be
coaxed away, for more than few moments,
from his mothers side.
One morning she missed him for awhile
and going out on the porch, she found him
sitting on the steps with his head buried in
his little hands sobbing as If his heart
would break. Dismayed, his mother lifted
him in her arms and begged him to tell
her what troubled him.
''Oh! my roses! my pretty roses!" he
sobbed. Il shut my eyes just now and [
saw EN- all; my pretty pink one, and the big
red one grandma gave me, and the yellow
one papa brought you from the flower show,
and the wee white one on little sisters
grave, and all the pretty flowers in the
ward: and 1 could most smell EN-, and l
was lust going to pull one to pin in your
hair and when 1 opened my eyes and
Jumped up to get it, they wasn't there and
q want EN-! want 'em!'
Light broke at once on his mothers
mind as to his strange conduct, and reso-
luton was formed at once to procure How
ers as soon as possible.

 The services of next Sunday, June 30, at the church promise to be of unusual interest. Rev IL. II. Cobb, secretary of the Congregational Church Building Society, who speaks both morning and evening, Is a man of national reputa- tion, one who is sought everywhere be- cause all who hear him are iiresistably attracted by his simple manner, earnest speech and manly Christian character His picture charts addresssthe eye, and thus Mir Cobb has the great advantage of conveying his thought through two channels to the mind. In the morning he gives sketches of the work here anC there over his wide field; in the evening a pictorial journey is taken through tht little-knowu territories of Arizona anC New Mexico.
