THE NATURE FAKER IN THE GAR-
DEN.
Wilbur ID. Nesbit in the Chicago Post;
Some string beans. being given broken
string to climb upon, lifted it from the
ground, carried it to fence ana alons
the fence to a small tree. one OF the
vines climbed the tree with the strlng'
CREW some string beans and tied them
in knots about the twigs, Fastening the
string with them.
Another bed of string beans being
neglected for more than week py tne
gardener. took peevish revenge. Wnen
the gardener went to pick them he found

II is interesting to watch the solicitude
and kindness with which family or
onions help each other. Often the little
onions will find it impossible to push
through the hard earth, and then the
stronger ones will aid them
A crop of white potatoes had been ex-
tremeIy backward The gardener lnVes-
tigated. and to his surprise found that
they were SO arranged that their eyes
were looking down into the ground.
Carefully he changed their positions,
and then they saw what was expected
of them.
The gardener has a small son who is
given to running across the street. The
other morning the gardener heard the
child shouting in alarm and ran out 10
learn what had gone wrong. He FOUND
that the lad had gone across the street
again. but that this time a pumpkin
vine had followed him and was clasping
him about the ankles. thus preventing
his going any farther. r.
The same small boy lay down to sleep
he M
high that its rays fell upon the face of
the little one. A rubber plant nearby
promptly stretched itself SO as to make
a shade over the sleeping fodder.
The Stay-at-Homes have their trou-
bles reading letters from the Cad
Abouts who write about sleeping un-
der blankets every night. but they get
even when the Gad-Abouts return
from their cool resorts and strike town
such weather as this.
