At their base are drooping Leucothoe Catesbaei, hardy 

 evergreen shrubs, profusely hung with sprays of creamy white 

 flowers, especially effective when used with Rhododendrons 

 and attractive at every season of the year. Carpeting the 

 ground is the close-growing Pachysandra terminalis, whose 

 short stems and densely tufted evergreen foliage make it un- 

 surpassed for cover under trees, and the trailing Periwinkle, 

 with its leaves of deepest green and purple blossoms. 



The front doorway of this home is truly choice, for, like a 

 friend, a good book, or a comforting fireside, it gathers unto 

 itself a steadily increasing love upon closer acquaintance. It 

 is designed upon lines of simplicity, purity, and dignity, its 

 proportions are broadened and strengthened by the rare 

 specimens of age-old English Boxwood, a decoration of 

 Nature's own skilful hands.
