In this book the author has made an
interesting and rather unusual classlnca-
ton OF plants. She has grouped them ac-
cording TO their use as Bread Plants,
Forage Plants. Sugar Plants. Plants
Whose Seeds We Eat, Plants Whose
Leaves and Stems We Eat, Beverage
Plants. Fibre Plants. etc. The following
excerpt is taken from the first chapter on
Bread Plants" under the section taking
up the subject OF rye:
In Russia more rye is grown than IN
any other country II Is great crop IN
Scandinavia and Northern Germany,
where everybody eats rye bread ard likes
il. The German 'pumpernicker Is a
bread that many Americans like. Not all
OF them know that they are eating the

The liking for this may be hereditary IN

ancestry. for the brown bread that ac-
companed the baked beans was half rye

Eighteen topics are discussed in as

Some Essentials of the Home, Furnishing

lowing excerpt is taken from the chapter
on Daily Routine of Household Work:
Kitchen aud other sinks where dishes
are washed. and where greasy water and
the water I'm which strong odored vege-
tables have been cooked are poured down
the pipes, should have thorough husn-

not plentiful, such refuse water had bet

Praise Them More

The two young daughters were pre-
pairing the house for their mother re-
turn. She had been away on a month 5
visit. and they had kept house in her al
sence. They were very anxious that she
should sec how competent they were,
saws ii writer in "The Mothers Magazine

fresh flowers decked every room, the
luncheon Was the product OF much
thought and care. All was ready. ana
they waited for the carriage 10 drive up.
When the mother came in, she gave them
each loving kiss, and then east the
quick eve of a housewife over tho rooms
"Oh. girls. look how crooked that cur
tain is" she said. IN shocked voice. and
crossed the room 20 straighten il.
For. alas, she was one Of the troubled
women who allow defect to loom 90
large before their eyes that II shuts out
everything else II hope il hasn't been
that way all the while I've been away"
she continued. "Some OF the neehbors
would be sure 10 notice It,"
And that was all. There was no word

daughters were going upstairs after
luncheon. one said T. the other: THE
only thing she noticed was that crooked

Injustice in their hearts.
Oh, the pity Of such lost opportunity.
This mother had put her daughters a lit
tie further from her. She had taken
away some Of the JOY o. service. The
next time they will not be quite so ready
to tlv 10 please her The work will seem
little more like drudgery.

was asked in her old age what She would

mothers would have shrieked in anguish

castle. thanked the small workers, and
then said she was afraid some one would

OF course they could. They tore IL

splendid than ever. The mother came
out and admired 1t again. She counted
