who was unusually averse to soiling

A Plea for Hou.e P1snts.

A pretty idea in decorating ones
rooms for an entertainment is to
place pots Of palms, growing ferns or
fiowe.s the shelves above the doors
usually devoted to pottery. Placed at
this elevation they are most effective,
and besides, out of the way as regards
wall and floor space; which is often q
consideration.
For plants that do not require sun
light the idea might be carried fur
Their, and certain kinds might always
be left on such shelf. FLOWERS give
an air to a room that nothing else can
impart-a touch of nature, a cosy,
homclike air-but in out rage for the
esthetic they have in measure been
banfshed, since both the pots and the
shelves and stands holding them are
considered unsightly. But the dull red
of the comm flower pot has q beauty
of its own, and there is no reason why

Embroidery.

Early American crewel work was de-
tived directly from England, and the
practice Of it seems to have been, for
the most part, confined to the New
England States, the embroidery of the
Middle and Southern States being Of
quite a different origin and character.
Our Puritan foremothers brought with
them not only the traditions of en-
broidery, but practical knowledge,
which they were successful in fitting
to the rough and meager conditions Of
their lives.
