SPRING FLOWER.^ OF TIIF WOODS 



While those people who live in warmer climates may have pleasures 

 of their own, yet I doubt if they ever experience a keener delight than we 

 who live in the northern and colder climates experience when we first get 

 out into the woods after, or even he fere the snow has entirely melted 

 away. Although many blossoms ma\- be more intrinsicall}- beautiful, yet 

 I doubt if there are any flowers in the world, which give so great 

 pleasure as do these little blossoms of the woodland, which appear in 

 our country during the months of April and ^lay.
