The ferns will grow to be between three and four feet high, and with the lilles makes the handsomest kind of ‘flower bed and one that requires little cate. For an outside window box, hive you ever tried planting sweet peas? Sow them with lavish hand gnd do not try to train them dgainst thé house. The peas will first fall over thé edge of the box, perhaps, to the depth of two feet, and then, as it is the na- ture of them to grow will turn and grow upwards, making a beautiful pale green mane with an outward curve. When in blossom the effect is Joyely, ‘What his become of Ethel of Ston- ington? . Surely, she has not forsaken us #o soon. I would like to hear from WILD FLOWER. ANTS AND MOTHS.

AMETICE. LITTLE THINGS THAT COUNT Dear Sisters of the Social Corner:— I never thought -ds“much of The Bul- letin as since I got interested in the Social roer: ‘had thought six- dollars a, year too mugh for the paper, but I have changed miy mind. When you live out in the country and do not see much of life, and evénings are so lonesome on the farm, what is better thin . The Bulletin t0 pass away an evening? and Saturday night vou can gt down gnd read with your Social sis- ter, brothers and the children, how fine are doing. Why, I really think it s as good as anything I know of to broaden the mind; and I think if any body was in pai if they took that Social Corner brother wrote for The Bulletin last Saturday, vyou would forget to send for the doc- v, sisters, he thought wofrien were never ‘interested in the Boys, down in Mexico, but if 1 knew his gumber 1 would call him up on the telephone. It any of you failed to read it, be sure you don’t forget to do so. Oh, it was grand!, He hif the old_and the young, it not so_vou would Teel it.
