An entertainment thus designated.
or possibly called a Fad Fair may be
given for the purpose Of raising
money which will be a pleasing varia-
tion of the ordinary church or society
bazar. 1t will be fair. but methods
Of work will be shown and instruction
will be given. For instance there may
be rug booth where braided rugs,
pieced rugs. drawn rugs, corn husk
rugs, lambskin and other fur rugs
will be on sale with an instructor to
teach the art of manufacturing the
homemade sorts.
A photographers booth should dis
play pictures of local interest and
there should be a dark room in con-
nection where plates will be devel-
oped for a fee; and there. too, should
be attendants prepared to instruct
novices in the things they wish to

Some of the
New Flowers
606060660000G

From Farmers Review Among
the asters the comet variety bids fair
to take an important place. They are
OF strong growth, branch freely, and
bear their flowers on long stems. This
makes them very useful for cutting.
The flowers are Loose and graceful in
arrangement and have none of the
primness and forinality peculiar to
the Victoria and Perfection strains.
In fact, the branching Comet variety
is quite equal to chrysanthemum
for cut flower uses, and no flower l
have any knowledge of equals it for
keeping after being cut. Last season
l kept vases of them in perfect condi-
ton for over two weeks by changing
the water in which they were placed
frequently. BegOnia Gloire de Lor-
raine is certainly the most beautiful
OF all winter-blooming plants of re-
cent introduction. Plants grown in
small pots will literally cover them
selves with blossoms through the en-
time season. The color is a bright,
delicate pink. The flower clusters are
large, spreading and of somewhat
dropping habit. and by far the greater
part of the plant is made up of them.
There is not great deal of foliage as
is generally the case with the ordinary
Begonia The only drawback to the
culture of this variety is the fact that
it does not seem to adapt itself to
ordinary treatment during the summer
months. Few persons outside the pro-
fessionals succeed in taking it from
April to October in good condition.
Therefore the amateur will do well
to not attempt summering it except
by way Of experiment and depend on
fall-purchased plants for winter sup
ply. Plants bought in October seem
to have the ability to adapt them
selves to conditions which prevail in
the average window garden quite read
lily. II everybody could grow it with
the ease with which the ordinary Be-
gonia is grown, in short time this
plant would be seen in every window.
And it would deserve place there, for
it is wonderfully beautiful in all re-
spects. A white variety is announced,
but have not yet had the pleasure Of
seeing it. 1t cannot be superior to
the pink sort, though it might equal
il in the opinions OF those who have
a liking for white fiowecs.-Eben E.

Thanksgiving.

o. Lord of Harvest, now we come
And humbly offer thanks to Thee
For all the wealth OF vine and tree;
The fruitage purpled In the sun.
The gifts Of all the bounteous year,
They make Thanksgiving's song OF
cheer.
o, gracious Father. for Thy care,
Thy tender mercies all the way.
For friendships true and love sincere,
We offer Thee our thanks to-day.
For gifts Of sunshine and of rain
For all that made the moments dear,
Our gratitude-in joyful strain
We sing Thanksgivings song OF cheer.

it Mad done 30 long ago. It was a
check-she could see it was that-but
the type written letter blurred, and
she handed Il to the little girl" The
little girl'' gave it one hasty glance,
then:
Listen! Listen!" she cried. ooh.
mamma, Iisten!" Then she read, joy
ously:
Dear Madam: We take great pleas
ure, after all the years of waiting, in
Offering to our readers this month
your beautiful little story, "Hopes
Afield." 1t seems even better to-day
than when we took it so long ago.
Perhaps, like good wine, it has i'm
proved for the keeping. Indeed, we
must offer this as our only excuse for
the delay; but you must allow us to
add to our original payment another
check for an equal amount in order to
make the price something near what
we would pay for such a story to-day,
and we trust that, undismayed by the
long waiting, You will let us have
many such from your pen. We are.
my dear madam,

AS the woman listened and saw the
little girl with the letter and check
in her hand, all her youth and Joy and
ambition came surging back. "Oh.

as he observed more closely the pale
face and this clothing Of the boy before
him.

bout yesterday. She belongs to the
Kings Daughters. you know. an they

but he's sick in bed. an when q fel-
lows dads laid up it comes pretty

that's how 'tis with you eh?"
Robin said that 1t was.

other Kings Daughters an guess
when your fathers better, p'raps
minell give i'm a job in the mill, eh?
There. now, your baskets full; If you
like I'll help you carry it home"
Robin thought he could manage it
alone, but his new acquaintance in
sisted on accompanying him. When
they had turned q corner and were
within sight of the house they saw a
vehicle a short distance up the street.
II do believe that's our carriage up
there: wonder what mothers been
doing down this way"
Mrs. Parker knew, and so did an
excited group of little ones, looking
on with exclamations Of delight, while
their mother, with ar-dimmed eyes
and thankful heart, unpacked the
most wonderful hamper of wonderful
goodies that ever you saw.
When the basket Of fuel had been
set down in the woodshed, Robin found
a chance to return the mittens to
their owner, who had positively re-
fused to resume them as often as they
had been proffered him.
Have you got drink O. water
to leave.
"Cert'nly. Come on in an I'll get
You one in a shake"
But he preferred to stay outside, and
when Robin reappeared, a moment
later, he was nowhere to be seen.
That's kind O. queer" thought
Robin, turning back into the house.
well, If he amt dandy!" for there
on top of the wood-basket lay woolen
comforter and pair of mittens.
Robin grabbed up the articles and
was about to rush out after their for
getful owner, when something fell to
the floor with metallic ring. He
turned quickly around and saw piece
of money.
well, what"
Snatching this up also he hurried
out. Far up the street he discerned
the figure of Peter Dickson, while the
words which he sang were swept down
upon gust of wind
THE north wind doth blow,
And we shall have snow,
And what will Robin do then?
Poor-r thing"
And Peter Dickson went his way
with his hands in his pockets and
his ears stinging from the cold, but
his face aglow with happiness.-H. J..

For the commencement of the move
ment for schcol-gardens in Russia one
has to go SO far back as 1871. At that
time the Russian government adopted
measures for the Introduction Of ma
ture-studies, and for practice in rural
industries in the primary schools OF
the empire, says Pearson's Magazine.
The peasantry. however, were gener~

should consist OF "book-learning." AS
result of their Indifference, at the
end Of ten years only six school dis
tricts were thus equipped. Gradually,
however, as the benefit of the new
movement became more widely under
stood, opposition was siienced. and
applications for special appropriations
for the establishment and mainte-
nance of gardens began to pour in so
fast as to actually strain the resources
of the centra. administration.
BY the year 1885,, the number Of
schcol-gardens in the whole Of Russia
proper was 7.52l-in other words,
about 100000 children were receiving
pIdCtlCdl tultlOu iIOEl lue reports
of Consul Heenan and from other
sources, it would seem conservative
computation to put the number OF
Russian children at present enjoying
this particular branch of instruction
at $4,000.
When the subject first began to en-
gage the attention of the Russian au.
thorities, it was found-as it had been
in other ountries-difiicult to obtain
teachers OF sufficient versatility to
successfully discharge the duties Of
the now system. This difficulty was,
however, met by an action of the gov.
ernment. which guaranteed the ssla-
ries not only Of the local tutors, but of
itinerant experts intrusted with the
initiation of the teachers in their new
duties. AS further encouragement.
medals, diplomas, and even premiums
were awarded, while in many cases
the teachers were permitted to derive
a profit from the sale Of the produce
raised in the model gardens.

HER DAY.

HEN DAY.
A wealth Of hair that's all her Own,
A pair Of frank and honest eyes,
A BLESS me. have oversight!
She doesn't yawn and dread to rise;
A face quick bathed In water cold,
A comb and brush to deftly put
Rebellious tresses into shape,
An easy shoe on natural foot:
A tidy frock. an apron clean.
A collar white. with bright-nued bow;
Down to the kitchen see her go.
The fire is lit. the ham is cut
Then griddie cakes done to turn
She Learned to make 'em at the
Pa and the children gather round
The breakfast tables hearty cheer;
Then out to field or off to school
Go all but mother. Sweet and clear.
Her home songs rise; her task of love
- A wife and mothers part to play
Seems but to add to happiness
That duty brings with each new day.
An hour to read when work is done:
Her club? The Grange-the church her
play"
No paint or whitewash on her face,
No sorrow DER a hair turned gray.
