In the cool woods, in the low, wet ground by the little runs and brooks, the mayapple arises on its stout shin- ing stem, lifting first a quaint um- brella leaf that opens slowly out. And now, under its shelter, the flow- ers expand, delicate, gleaming petals, with & heart of gold, the cluster of stamens and pistils. It is hard at first to convince ourselves that the mayapple belongs to the barberry family, but if you will look at the tiny flowers of a barberry under a lense, even an ordinary library tzble magni fying glass, you will see that they do not differ so largely from mayap- | ple flowers, after all, except in the matter of size Soon the mayapple flowers will be followed by big fruit which is edible, and. better than a fruit for will make delicious jel- lies of a clear amber color, in taste rather like crabapple and lemon.
