in sun or shade.
East and west boxes should be filed
with good garden loan intermixed with
well rotted manure. Boxe for the north
side of the house, where sunlight never
or seldom reaches, should be filed, lie

Try or very old manure. Since the amount
OF earth a plant is small, the substance or
richness OF the soil must be sufficient to
make up for the deficiency in quantity.
Inc plants will also require considerable
water, and to prevent its running to waste
between the earth and the side of the
box the dirt in the center of he box
should be lower than that around the
edges. The earth should reach to within
about two inches of the top of the box,
and into the sides of the box, about an

WINDOW BOXES.

With the June days our thoughts turn

study designs for floral decorations. We
all love flowers, more or less, and in them
we have at this season of the year the
means of making OUT home attractive, no
| matter how humble or elegant it may
ordinarily be. Flowers are no respeeters
| of financial position. They grow quite as
well for one person as for another, and
when tastefully arranged they convert the
most humble home into one of almost regal
elegance.
Window boxes, of course. come In for our
attention, and they must be planned for
early in the season. If the house is not
already provided with them, the making of
the boxes viii be given rlrsr attention.
The plants may then be set in them, but

until all danger from frost is past.
Window boxes should be built long and

Enough gasped Isabel. Good

Here's $50 them said Henry. mis-
understanding his wife's dismay.

chocolate soda.
The next afternoon she called for
Mrs. Blinking at her hotel and was
greatly relieved to ind the wife of the
millionaire a pleasant little woman

Isabel carried, which had cost s2.25.
