Gardening Has Many Joys. -

You who have no garden are missing one of the - keenest and most legiti-" mate of the pleasures of Jife. If you are a happy garden enthusiast, you have, of course, made a careful study of the seed catalogues, whosS name is legion, and have pictured in your mind’s eye the glorious effect of a massed planting of this new flower in that little nook which has always looked a£rifle bare; you have perhaps tasted in your mind as vividly as a physical taste of a moment ago, a delicious new cantaloupe or sweeter sweet corn, buttery green limas or more delicately toothsome brussels sprouts, the very thought of which arouses an anticipatory keenness of palatal delight that opens wide the flood gates of the digestive fluids.— B.
