Mrs. Frances Hodgson Burnett, One of Those Who Seemingly Charm
 the Flowers to Grow.

There are few authors who follow their pet hobby so assiduously as does Frances Hodgson Burnett; and her hobby is gardening. Her present home at Plantdome, near Manhasset. l.. l., is a marvel of experimentation in gar deuing.
 She seems to have the ability to coax the most reluctant flower out of the ground. When new seedman's catalogue arrives, other household af- fairs quite cease-such sordid mat ters as sleeping, writing books, eating and talking shop--till the catalogue has been criss-crossed with approving marks. And table conversation is like ly to center about the gardens, as 8 rigging.
 But her present garden is nothing as compared with the rare old gardens Mrs. Burnett once had at her beau tiful old manor house, Maytham Hall, in England. She made the most beau- noted for gardens.
 Back Of the mansion stretched old brick walls, showing traces of ma sorry dating as far back as 1000 A. D. Some of the walls were so old that great cedars grew atop of them. Some were tumbied down, gray, with exquis- ite tracery of lichens. Among these quite old walls stretched many gar dens
 The most interesting had once been an apple orchard. The trees had rot ted away and the plot become a tan gled, wild back O the beyond Here, decided Mrs. Burnett, she would have a rose garden in which to write. She planted roses, net merely in a few formal beds, but in masses, climbing roses and low sArabs, making one great blaze of color.
