let himself into the balmy April air.

silently out of his home for a little

PEoMIEs

No other herbaceous plant lives so
long or produces flowers equal to
the peony.
Peonies planted this, autumn will
flower next season. The middle OF
September to the middle of October
is the best time to plant, preferably
the earlier season to permit the plants
to make a good root growth before
winter sets in. The soil must be rich
as the peony is gross feeder.
Remove the soil to depth of three
feet and fill up the space to the depth
of foot with well rotted COW manure.
Spade the manure in we'll II the

Of sand. leaf and mold and manure for

window stood row of exquisite white
lilies. His mother had turned from
his stricken father to regard them, and
over her face had come that tender,
confident smile the little lad had SO
loved. Consider the lilies." she had
told the man, Athey toll not. neither
do they spin, yet Solomon in all his
glory was not arrayed like one of
these" And his father had taken her
into his arms with great sob. while

standing only that his mother had

great crisis.

had it come? From the heart of an
Easter lily? Or had it come into the
house Of God with him with ray of
moonlight? Or, was the voice in his
brain alone-bOrn Of memories? He
could not tell. and it did not matter.
When he had laid her away twenty
years ago he had not laid away the
influence that had been hers all
through his young life, her faith In
him, her smile, nor the memory of a
certain day when he had been gradu-
ated from college and had promised
her that he would seek first the king
dom of God and his righteousness
through all the days that he should
live. And he had kept his promise
until tonight. when the greed of gold
became the dominating motive of his
life; tonight, when the thirst for lux

STARTING OF THE ANIMALS

! Y : -l + st
Many ANNALS can be started from
seed planted now for winter flower
ing, and with the use of the plants
now growing in the garden and young
plants raised from cuttings good
display can be obtained for house
culture at a very small expense.
1t is a good idea to pot the plants
sufficiently early so the pots can be
plunged In the garden, permitting
them to remain there a week or two
before taking them into the house.
A good rule is to allow two leaves
to remain on cuttings of such plants
as geraniums, cutting off the top half
Of these leaves with a sharp knife.
Any cuttings that die or rot must be
Immediately removed.

Then out Of the stiffness sound
was made. It was the sound OF q
voice the voice of his mother.
Consider the lilies" it pleaded soft
ly.
The cashier sprang to his feet and
looked about him wildly. There was
no one in the big lily-laden church ex-
cept himself himself and the voice.
Consider the lilies" came the adj
vice to him once more.
The voice was unmistakable. AL
though his mother had been dead 10,
these twenty years. he could never
forget the gentleness of her voice But
that was not ALL The admonition had
a familiar ring which was not of the
voice alone, nor yet Of some long-for-
gotten reading. The words were
borne in upon his senses now as in
that Iong-ago yester-year. when. as q
little lad, he had sat In the living
room Of his home listening to his
fathers heartbroken confession to his
mother that he had failed In business.
1t was Easter then as now. On the
broad easement of the low French

or the leaves can be spread out fiat
on the sand and pinned down tight
with hairpins or wooden toothpicks.
Keep the cuttings shaded. Another
good way to make cuttings is in a
small earthen crock without drain
age. Fill with sand to within an
inch or two of the top. Insert the
cuttings and pour in water until the
sand is just covered. Keep the sand
constantly covered with water and
the cuttings will soon root
When the cuttings are inserted in
the sand, the sand should be packed
firmly about them with the hands.
Insert the cuttings closely together.
The foliage should be cut back on the
cuttings.
Plants growing in the garden. which
make fine house plants include:
Fuchsias. begonias. geraniums. petun-
las, pinks, verbenas, arbutilons, chrys-
anthemums, daisies. Cut the plants
back about one-half.
