yard a mmtber 01" roses in bloom,
and'byinvitalionoi Mrs. Stcwait.be.
took a stroll through the yard and
noted lhe many different rose's and
oilier flowers. There were deep crimson vescs, pink roses, and roses, lhat
were white; some' in lull bloom and
some just on the tip-toe of -blossoming out like their . earlier companion-;, llrs. Ross has Virginia creepers', thai have climlied half way to
Uie rooi of lhe -yei*aiu*jah- and ciicum-
ilier -nuiiiers that *"* have l>eaten the
creepers by half. It is better to lie
a runner (hart a creeper if you are., a
vim* and want lo, get up in the world
quickly.-
The-reporter noticed a small patch
of protai'c potatoes in'the'.backyard
, h.-dgtii in by poppies, sweet peas and
nasturtiums ' * ond a pile of.. rocks,
which ..was made to smile like a sun-
*beam by being embraced and kissed
and entwined by', nuMurtiuiiis in all
t{-hades., from* lightest-'-, yellows to
deepest.
Where i*nc-l», and gravel once prevailed,
N'miiberlrss flowers are now, en-
trailed
fll<out - th's, . one of ' the new
homes in town. All the way down
that street,.as far as the residence of

are,lending their verdure to cheer
lhc- vision, of tlle passer, and sweet
peas, uastiirtiuuis, pansies and inany
others arc lo be seen in profusion,
where a very* few years ago stumps
and trees a-JMinnlded. Mrs. Tuttle
showed the stroller a fnll-lilown rose
which measmed a little more than
five" .inches in diameter, which slie
had taken lrom.a small Ijjjsli piantcd
this spring in her front yard.' 0
'At Edgjccli'I many lave the flowers lo

of little .lawns, which the .owner hai'
inelTectually tried.to hide froin ,th

have placed loo much confidence ii
the watchfulness of other . ollicials
and has neglected to fence in hi-
little corner pf creation. One day nr

little retreat iu search of cowslip
and succeeded in pulsing a whole 1
of. tulips inward bound, through her
owa two lips, Ix'l'ore. the ollicial coul,',

citw to be a pleasant pastime. However, this .slipping tendency'of 'tli**
cow for cowslips,, resulted^ finally ii
the 'ilipping of a five-dollar hill from
the,pocket of the'owner ofthe twf.

«iock hangs over lhe spot where tlu
