a few expensive -trees from Asia. His
old gardener eared for the trees till
the death of the flower-Ioving king -
The next monarch ordered the garden
destroyed.

The kings son, who loved the or-
ange trees asked the gardener's
daughter to plant a few roots secret-
ly near her home -save them -and he
wound reward her. Fearful of the
new king's displeasure, the girl de-
cided to go to the queen and tell her
the story. Impressed; the queen ptes-
ented her with five potted trees, and
the praice paid her .,so handsomely
that she was able to marry her pen-
niless sailor suitor.

When she was dressing for the 'wed-
ding, the young girl saw a little spray

QUESTION BOX
Mrs. T. L. asks: •"How can I' re-
heat a pledding, and still have it tee,
ty;,,
Answer: When you want to use a
pudding, such as coffee pudding the
second day, re -heat it by putting in a
wet paper bag. Twist the opening of
the bag, put on a pie tin and place
it in the electric oven. It really does
steam your pudding as though it were
fresh, providing it had been kept in
your electric refrigerator..

ducts as junket, and transform ..this

" In flowers it is a4Wlsable to use
started plants available from aqy seed
firm or greenhouse. Among the kinds
that come in this way are cosmos,
zinnias, petunias, marigglds, salpiglos-
sis, nicotine and a host of others.
When transplanting, flower buds
should be pinched off and 'also un-
wanted side stems, If a branching
plant is desired a few laches should
also he nipped off the top stem.'
After stetting out plants, the ground
about should be soaked with water
and -kept soaked for a week or so. It
is a good plan to add some commer-
cial fertilizer dissolved in water and
in the case of small" things :to pro-
tect from the sun for a day or two.
To Hide Dying Tulips
Spring flowering bulbs such as tul-
ips, hyacinths and daffodils should be
left in the garden to mature after
their period of bloom is over. At
th's time, of course, they cease to be
an ornament and many owners are
tempted to pull the disfiguring tops.
