dress it and keep it. People whose

Il rickety soap box high up on fire
escape share this love which must
have a plant to tend, with those whose
gardens cover acres and whose plants
have been gathered from all the
world. How often in summer when
driving through the squald streets to
ferries or riding on the elevated road
one sees these gardens Of the poor
Sometimes they are only geranium
or two, or the gay retunit, or tall
suntlower, or tomato plant red with
fruit These efforts tell of the love
of growing things and the care that
makes them live and blossom. Against
all odds one feels a thrill of sympa-
thy with the owners of the plants and
wishes that some day their lot may Be
cast in happier places. where they,
too, may have gardens to tend.
We hope to spread the interest in
all of our homes for the identifying

we'll with artistic gardening and flow

These have tendency to bring hap

proud a good husband feels when he
comes home in the evening from
hard days labor and looks upon the
beautiful flowers, and garden, where
he has moved and watered In the
morning before going to his days
labor, and his good wife has looked
after the flowers, here and there, and
kept them growing beaua fful, and
when they are in bloom he finds

Here are some subjects which the
