THE FERN PARADISE. 
absolutely essential rigidly to exclude anything 
like prim ornamentation. There must be no 
brilliantly-coloured or polished stones ; no coral ; 
no regular gradation of size and shape in the 
material used. Rough misshapen blocks of stone, 
arranged according to what may be called the 
symmetry of ruggedness, will best suit the grace- 
ful ferny forms. 
The little volume goes forth on its mission. 
In EVERY HOME which it enters may it help to 
promote the realisation of the author’s ideal of 
A Fern Paradise ! 
THE END.
