MAKING THE MOST OF
SUMMER WILD FLOWERS

There is a charm about fresh flowers
set about the rooms of a house that no
amount of luxury in furnishings can
rival. The English appreciate to the full
this charm of fresh flowers and if there
is no garden attached to the house a
regular account is maintained at the
florists, cut flowers according to the sea
son arriving each morning The English
housewife takes pleasure in arranging
her flowers and if she has a garden goes
out in the cool of the morning with
basket and scissors to gather blossoms
still wet with dew
Cultivated flowers are hard to get in
America during the midsummer months
There is a certain season in Angus,
when about the only cut flowers one ma y
obtain are gladioli The fields and woods
usually abound with wild flowers tina,
have an artistic value and "a charm OF
their own when well arranged about the
country house Vases, bowls and quaint
pitchers should be ready in abundance
to receive the flowers. which should be
arranged all at one time and placed in
hall, living room, guest rooms and dining
room.
