This young man has just got back from China. and Jhe was recommended to fetch these bulb and MT. Jobson repeated to her the di- rections he had listened 10 as to how the things should be planted.
 Mrs Jobson got behind him and tried to tug at his sleeve, but MT. Jobson didn't t or wouldn't notice this move. Then Mrs. Jobson said:
 T don't believe you'd care for them, would you?' at the same time shaking her head at MT. Jobson when the man in the sailors uniform wasn't looking. Mir. Jobson only scowled at these mani festations, however, and turned to the visitor.

 Well was the reply, just because you take an interest in such things and because I know you'll cultivate 'em and raise em right, I'll be willing to sell them to you, Mr. Jobson, for just what they cost me-24 yen, or $l2.''
 That's reasonable enough" said Mir. Jobson, all the more resolved because Mrs. Johson continued to shake her head when the visitor wasn't looking, and he paid the man the $l2 and took the package of brownish, dirty-loolIng bulbs. The man tipped MT. and Mrs. Jobson salute and departed.
 That very night MT. Jobson impressed into service a smail-sized tub that he found in the storcroom, filled it with earth dug from the back yard, and planted the dozen and odd bulbs as per the directions of the man with the tar rig. He set the tub in the middle of the back yard, and for a couple of weeks he himself attend- ed to the watering of them, The chink- alensis bioomerionus seemed to he rather backward, but MT, Jobson attributed that to the rawness of the weather. After about three weeks a couple of tiny green shoots made their appearance from each of the bulbs, and MT.
