lows and cramped and shaded quarters.
Although the fact does not seem to be
generally understood, it is possible to
have a window filled with beautiful plants
many OF them blooming, where scarcely a
ray Of sunshine will reach them, but it is
important that the plants shall be wisely

made to fit the window, two for the ends
and one for the front; have them SO that
they will come even with the sill. You
can thus hide the pots by setting them
in the soil of the boxes, and the plants
will do better if the roots are kept from
the sun and the dry air of the room.
these boxes may be decorated in any way
sired, and while they will be more con-
Alent they will be much less expensive
jardinieres or fancy pots, and will
