to find a girl or woman who makes a

POTS FOR HOUSEPLANTS.
Tin colts and old kettles and pans
have been •called into use as flower
pots about as often as regular pots,
but pots are so inexpensive that if we
can get them they will add so much to
the beauty of the windovr that it will
pay. If we cannot get pots conven-
iently thee, we can use cans, but they
shotad be painted a neutral tint to
Make them ,les conspicuous. If we
use cans itis best to eutethe top off
just below the rim • and carefully
pound the edge into a little roll out-
ward. This rids it of sheep edges rind

best in a shallow pane and for bulbs
,there is a half -depth pot made that
will give them plenty -of -soil and save
much heavy lifting. Some plants, like
geraniums, will bloom' beat in small
pots so the roots viral be pot-bound,
while others, like callas or cheysan-

Her etep acquired n joyful spring
when the corridor was reached; and
she sped. along th,e passage like an
eager girl abont to keep a tryst. Her
heart was palpitating, her cheeks
were flushed, andher eyes wide when
she at last paused and opened a door
on het right.
Softly she closed it and stood gazing
expectantly across the dainty room.
Only for a moment did she hesitate.
Like a'inagnet she was -drawn for-
