Late in the evening she had the sat

and evidently experimenting her work
by careful pruning.
Thursday afternoon she leaned over
the fence to have a closer look at the
plants They appeared green enough,
but there were no flowers 4 closer
scrutiny disclosed the fact that the
plants were shedding their leaves and
only the stalks with a bunch of green
leaves at the top remained.
Then the kind-hearted neighbor con-

make a careful inspection of the plants
She came back hurriedly and out of
