A Fine Spring Game.


When you have company a lovely
game to play is flower spider web.
This is played thus: In nest are sew
eral small packages OF flower seeds,
and to each package is attached a
cord of different color. Each person
is invited to choose cord and follow
where 1t will lead, for at the other end
will be found the flower to which the
seeds belong. The cords, OF course,
are carried in as intricate a manner
as possible, under furniture and rugs,
around table legs, in and out through
balusters, up stairs and down, until
finally each child will find q potted
plant with paper friIls or a bunch Of
the flowers appropriate to the seed
The blue cord led to forgetmenots,
the white to the stock gillies, the red
to carnations, yellow to daffodils, the
green to mignonette, the lilac to vio-
let's, purple to pansies and the pink
to primroses.
