GLEANINGS IN BEE CULTURE. 



4SS 



By the way, I can note changes in thrifty 

 plants in just one hour. If I g-et a new 

 plant that has been pretty badly used by 

 mail or express, I cin tell in just one hour 

 whether it is going- to grow or not. With 

 this lean to greenhouse, my plants are con- 

 stantly turning toward the sun or light, es- 

 pecially the bed that is back against the 

 wall. Well, a plant that has taken hold, 

 and is going to grow, will commence turn- 

 ing its leaves perceptibl3' toward the light 

 in just one hour. Wh.> , it seems as if my 

 pets could really talk to me. This morn- 

 ing-, when I looked in and saw the new pe- 

 tunias that had opened during the night in 

 their g-audy dresses, it seemed as if each 

 one were saving. "Mr. Root! Mr. Root! 

 please look at me! A'n't I pretty? " And 



then another and another would say the 

 same thing. None of them said, " A'n't I 

 the prettiest of all, or more handsome than 

 any of my neighbors?" They just said, 

 " Don't you think / am pretty? Don't \ou 

 admire me in my new spring dress? " And 

 then if I do not say it out loud I say it in 

 my heart, "Yes, you dear little darlings, 

 you are wonderfully pretty; and I thank 

 God from the bottom of my heart for having 

 sent you to give me these thrills of joy." 



Dear reader, if you have not something 

 about your own home — flowers or trees or a 

 little garden, or something else to make 

 your life in a like manner happy, and full 

 of thanksgiving to God, you are not getting 

 all the joy and happiness that God intended 

 you should have in this world of ours.
