regular, variegated foliage, crowned 

 here and there with the deeper coloring 

 of new growth. 



Outside are the dahlias and cannas, 

 vast beds of dahlias, the cannas in 

 lesser numbers, both evidencing culture ^ 

 and system everywhere. The new 

 French hydrangeas, mostly of the fore-- 

 ing type, are a feature of the frames, 

 their existence there a" bold cultural 

 stroke that carried them safely through 

 the rigors of last winter in these sash- 

 covered frames. They are in the pink 

 of condition. A cool greenhouse could 

 not have improved them. 



The buildings and grounds alike show 

 tlw pride that is taken in their appear- 

 ance. 



' «' • Various Notes. 



A novel enterprise in this city last 

 week was the sale of flowers on the 

 street corners and in the hotels and 

 shops by girls and women for charity. 

 They bought over 20,000 dahlias from 

 J. J. Habermehl's Sons at the Bellevue- 

 Stratford, disposing of them to all who 

 would buy. The sale was in aid of the 

 Children's Homeopathic Hospital. It is 

 said to have realized a good round sum. 



Miss Kunder, of Charleroi, Pa., came 

 to the city with her father a few days 

 ago in answer to the floral school ad- 

 vertisement of Charles Henry Fox. 



J. Otto Thilow reached Broad street 

 station from Richmond, Va., on the 

 evening of September 30, exactly on 

 time. Mr. Thilow, who was met by the 

 representative of one paper, the most 

 progressive, visited Tak-it-ezy, the sum- 

 mer home of William F. Dreer, at 

 Northeast, Me., and the Carolinas dur- 

 ing his vacation. 



Edgar Upton and family left this 

 city for Denver, Colo., September 30.
