The one great disadvantage under which the amateur labors when his garden is on the side of a somewhat sharp hill is the difficulty of keeping the roots of hie plants in a moist enough Condition. The natural shelving of the ground throws off nearly all the water as soon as it is applied, and if there be heavy drenchings there is another trouble in that the soil is being continnal-

The length of the flat and the height of each wall may be modified in many degrees, according to requirements, much, however, depending on the nature of the ground and subsoil under

treatment.

In the construction of terraces the parts to which attention must be given are foundations, tie stones, copings and draiuuge. In the illustration the portion of tho hi 11 si tie shown has a rise of 20 feet, each wall being therefor j about 6 feet in height. The work is comluenced at the lowest point, and the corner of soil resting against tho front of the wall is thrown forward to level the stop. Tito first watl 1 is now put up, being built in such a case as tho one before us, of dry stones, foundation lieing easily obtained by digging down a few incites, small stones, which tire of no use for building, being thrown in behind tho wall for drainage. Outlets should be made in this at intervals of

about 100 feet in wet soils.

A CANOPIED DIVAN. well as of a hygienic character, which accrue from having one’s furniture fitted to the walls are gradually beginning to dawn upon tho general public mind, and it is not unreasonable to hope that before many y ears have passed away it will Ite quite orthodox for middle class folk to despise tho present nomadic type of furnishing in favor of the more abiding and homelike fitments. The very character of fitted furniture seems to convey tin air of established homeliness which is destined to continue for many years, while the old fashioned suits of so many pieces, with their decorative accessories, always suggest the unwelcome possibility of leaving an old familiar house which has been endeared to us by all the cherished associations of home life. Fitted furniture at times is very sim- I pie, and sometimes it is of an claIterate | character As a rule, the best and most artistic work is the least complicated and “fussy.” Decorator and Furnisher, authority' for the foregoing, illustrates a very dainty and convenient draped divan that is in the highest sense a “fitment.” There ore no “broken up” recesses, with shaped arches and spindles, no entangled fretwork and Ho useless little open pigeonholes to servo as so many dust traps. Everything is smooth, compact and tasteful, giving that expression of repose that is so desirable in modern furnishings.

General Iliiles For Jelly Making. The fruit from which tho juice is ex pressed should not be overripe. Strain the juice carefully, measure and heat before adding the sugar. Tlie usual proportions tire a pint of sugar for each pint of juice. Tho sugar — common granulated—should be heated in the oven before it is put into the boiling juice. Boil gently and skim frequently. Rinse the jelly glasses in warm water before pouring the jelly into them When filled, place the glasses uncovered in the sunshine and let them he undisturbed for 2 4 hours. Then cut rounds of paper, wot them with brandy and place over the top of the jelly. Now cut rounds an inch larger, dip them in the white of egg and cover the tops of the glasses, pressing the edges down outside and sealing, thus making them airtight. A Foeket Table.

The Old House. Cold and cheerless, bare and bleak. The old house fronts the shabby street. And the dull windows eastward Raze As their cobwebbed brows they raise. Just as though they looked to see What had become of you and me And iUI the other children. The garden at the side—you AnoV— Where mother's flowers used to grow Has run as wild as w-e’d have grow n If we bad not her training known. The vines she bent still tw ine each tree As cling her prayfrs to you and me And all the other children. Over the eaws, wrinkled and bare, Tlte gray moss floats Ilka tangled hair.

The silver moonlight touched lier head, And in my dreams her face I’d see, Madonnaltke, shine over me— Shine over all her children. The dust drifts o’er the garret floor, The little feet tread there no more. But o’er the stage, still standing there. The muse llrst stalked, with tragic air. And whispered low to you and me Of golden days Hist were lo he For us and all the children. Goodby, old house! Thy tattered cloak Is fringed with moss and gray with smoke Within thy walls we used to see A gaunt old wolf named Poverty, Yet from thy rafters' dingy bars A ladder stretched up to the stars— For us and all the children. —Chicago Post. Ixtve. To kiss the hands that smite. To pray for them that persecute. To hear the voice of blame Heap undeserved shame. And still be mute— Is this not 16vc? To give for evil good. To learn what sacrifice can teach. To he the scoffer’s sport. Nor strive to make retort To angry speech— Is this not love? To face the harsh world's harms. To brave Its bitterness for years. To be an unt hanked slave And gain at last a grave Unwet by tears— Is this not lore? —Susie M. Best Two Helpers. Curie climbed a comrade up my garret stair And shared his own crust with the struggler there, Y’et dashed with thoughtless gesture to the ground Tho iasl dear cup of hope my soul had found.
