OF HOUSE-PLANTS 



prevents the larger ones from robbing the Ht- 

 tle fellows of their just share of light and sun- 

 shine. The effect is finer in an aesthetic sense, 

 as the plants can be so arranged that a pretty 

 slope from the outside to the center of the win- 

 dow is secured, as if the plants had been 

 "banked." Such an arrangement will afford 

 a delightful outlook from the room through a 

 vista of flowers and foliage, and will be found 

 vastly more pleasing than the ordinary ar- 

 rangement which is really a lack of arrange- 

 ment. The woman who loves flowers and 

 hkes to work among them will always be dis- 

 covering new ways by which they can be made 

 attractive, and can be trusted to study these 

 things out for herself.
