can make out of Maude’s Charade in this number, 
and let us know the result.— B. M. H.: Once more we 
have none of your productions to offer our readers. 
Your puzzles are so good that we use them almost as 
soon and as fast as received. Could you find time to 
favor us with five or six? — Lamps: Is there any pros¬ 
pect that you will return to us this autumn and be 
one of our company? We shall hope such will be the 
case, for you will be as warmly welcomed as you 
have been sadly missed . — Lackawanna Lad: Your 
puzzle has the same answers to one that appeared, 
not long since, in the Youth's Companion , but as we 
received yours before the other was published, we 
know it is only a coincidence. — Cassbett: May your 
prophecy prove a true one. Wonder how many of 
our readers will be able to “hit the combination.” 
Why no answers from you to the August Garnerings? 
Please report every month, if you have but one solu¬ 
tion.— Maude: Your contributions s^em to cause 
much study; but as that is what puzzles are for, why 
should any one complain? But we do not think it fair 
for any one to “try the easy puzzles and skip the hard 
©nes;” do you? It is often so in our every day life; 
still, we think, there is a pleasure in surmounting all 
difficulties, and we certainly feel a glow of pardon¬ 
able pride when we have surmounted them; it is so 
with puzzles of all kinds.— Garnerers: The long and 
pleasant evenings are now with us once more and 
just the season to take renewed interest in the Gar¬ 
nerings. The Garner is not crowded and there are 
places in the Cozy Corner for all our friends to make 
fchemselves at home; so come soon and often and re¬ 
main with us as long as possible. F. S. F. 
Some Simple Truths. 
perfect fruit as they could stick. I was 
just gathering a pan full of the most splen¬ 
did ripe strawberries you ever saw, for 
your supper, when I waked up, and as I 
looked out of the window and saw the same 
% 
old dreary weed patch, it almost made me 
sick.” 
Mr. Jones.—“That just reminds me. I 
have a circular of small fruit plants I got 
to-day, and the prices are so cheap I guess 
we’ll have that dream realized.” 
Mrs. Jones.—O! if you would, I’d be so 
glad.”

God planted the first fruit garden, and 
pronounced it good, and it has been grow¬ 
ing good ever since. 
An apothecary shop, and a whole 
laboratory of the purest medicines, is in 
every fruit garden. Physic done up in the 
shape of ripe and luscious fruits will be 
taken by all patients with ease, and do the 
most good. 
The h ippiest and healthiest family I ever 
saw was one that had free access to a large 
garden that was filled with the choicest 
specimens of all kinds of fruit, large and 
small. 
A DREAM. 
Mrs. Jones.—“I had such a lovely dream 
last night. I thought our old garden of 
weeds |iad been transformed into one of 
the prettiest places you ever saw. Straight 
paths had been cut through and across it, 
and there were beds of strawberries and 
rows of other fruit bushes all over the 
garden, and all just as full cf ripe and
