From Farmers Review: A corfa-
spondent from Maine writes of having
seen some Of the finest Boston ferns
and large-leaved Begonias, during a
recent visit to small town that she
ever saw anywhere. Such long
fronds of fern" she writes, and
begonias with leaves a foot across, on
stalks three and four feet long. At
first | thought the varieties must be
different from those / am familiar
with, but the owners of them told me
that was mistaken. The superior
development of the plants was attrib-
utable to the locations in which they
were kept. They were on brackets, or
the top shelf of bookcases, several feet
from the floor, and at some distance
from the window. Because of their
elevated position and their distance
from strong light, the leaves dropped
gracefully, and they were In every
way larger and finer than plants
grown on the window-sill. In their
reaching toward the light they became
elongated to a1 unusual degree, but
they seemed perfectly healthy and
were, If anything, finer in color than
plants given place nearer the glass
In other respects they seemed to get
the same treatment that | give my
plants. When l came home l at once
promoted my plants to elevated posi-
tions, and already l fancy that l see
signs Of Improvement"
No doubt position like the one de-
scribcd viii be to the advantage Of
these plants 1t certainly will, so far
as gracefulness goes. because anything
that increases their tendency to droop
adds to their beauty. As bracket
plant the Boston fern is unsurpassed.

Your Mission.

CThis was President Lincoln's favorits
gong, one which he encored no less thar
eighteen times when sung at a Sunday
school convention In Washington in 1861.
IL you cannot on the ocean
Sail among the swiftest fleet,
Rocking on the highest billOWs,
Laughing at the storms you meet
You can stand among the sailors,
Anchored yet within the bay,
You can lend a hand to help them
AS they launch their boats away
II you are too weak to journey
Up the mountain. steep and high,
You can stand within the valley
While the multitudes go by;
You can chant in happy measure
AS they slowly pass along
Though they may forget the singer,
They will not forget the song.
II you have not gold and silver
Ever ready at command;
II you cannot toward the needy
Reach an ever~helping hand,
You can succor the afflicted,
Ger the erring you can weep;
You can be true disciple,
Sitting at the Masters feet.
If you cannot in the harvest
Garner up the richest sheave,
Many grains, both ripe and golden,
Wsll the careless reapers leave;
Go and Clean among the briers
Growing rank against the wall.
For 1t may be that the shadows
Hide the heaviest wheat of all.
If you cannot in the conflict
Prove yourself a soldier true.
If where ire and smoke are thickest
There's no work for you to do,
When the battlefield is silent.
You can go with careful tread
You can bear away the wounded
You can cover up the dead.
Do not. then. stand idly waiting
For some greater work to do;
Fortune Is a lazy goddess
She will never come to you.
Go and toll within life's vineyard;
Do not fear to do or dare
If you want field of labor
You can find 1t anywhere.
