Mrs. Otis had come to spend the win- ter with her daughter, Mrs. Brown, and although there was no lack of the comforts and even the luxuries of life, and every one was kind and attentive to "dear grandma," a little cloud had arisen which troubled her kind heart until at last --be remonstrated with her daughter concerning her treat- ment of fourteen -year-old May. "You do out. bine tier any chance to develop her individuality," said Mrs. Otis. "Young girls are sotlrcetimes very sensitive, and it seews to"hie that you do not fully realize how often you another her girli: h acs! itious and re- pel her confidence." ' Mrs. Brown draw herself up indig- nantly and replied: "if you please, mo- ther we will not discuss the subject. I think I understand how to train my own child (setter than any one who has never seen her until a week a6o." So Ute subject was dropped, but nut for- gotten by Mrs Otis. "My dear," said Mrs. Otis the next morning, as she and Mrs. Brown were admiring the flowers in the little con- eervstory. "I ,want you. to ;give me that little geranium. 1 want to try all experiment." "You can have whatever you want," replied Mrs. Brown„ "but this one is larger and will bloom sooner." "I want the half-grown one," said Mrs. Otis, and taking up the pot with Its healthy young plant she carried it to the sitting room and placed it by the north window. "It will do better in the bay -win- dow," said Mrs. Brown. "I am following the line given for the experiment," replied Mrs. Otis, at the same time snipping off the edges of sonic of tho large leaves with her scissors. As the da.ya went on, her treatment of the plant seemed very strange to sibs. Brown. At one time she would snip off a Leaf here and there, then a young shoot would be stripped of its Leaves, again it would be half severed from the atalk and left to die. The Plant was seldom watered and then only a more sprinkle. This was evi- dently not dfie to forgetfulness, as Mrs. Otis examined the plant many times a day, never seeming at all al- armed at the yellowing of the leaves and tho general air of blight. In time a sickly bud appeared and was ruthlessly snipped in two by the cruel scissors. One day she set the pot outside the window, and when tak- en in the leaves were chilled and limp.' It had scarcely recovered from the plull when it '.vas submitted to the (Lame of the buaning ,match which was held under the leaves until the edges curled up and turned black. At last Mrs. Brown could keep sil- ent no longer and asked reproach- fully, "Did you want that plant only' to ak•use it V "Why, Marthal You gave it to me to train as I choose, did you not?" asked Mrs. Otis. "I .suppose so, but you will kill it if you keep on this way," replied Mrs. Brown. "Why, you ought to alsprove my Lreatment. I named the plant May, and have fo•Llovved your treatment of your May in every particular. Even the scorching I gave it just now was not more severe then the sarcastic re- buke that sent your May from the room in tears ten minutes ago," re- plied Mrs. Otis. airs. Brown looked from her gentle mother to the siOrly plant with an ex- pression of indignant surprise which quickly changed to dismay as she left the room witho ltit a word. The lesson was not without effect. Instead of harsh words a growling in- terest In May's thowp5hts and plans was noticeal-ole. The geranitwn was rarnoved to the sunny lay-wiadow and w-ateJred liber- ally. Later, when kindly advice was given concerning May's associates, the new sprouts of the geranium were care- fully tied to a small trellis placed in the ;.ol, for that purpose, "What a comfort: May is getting to be I" oxclaimed Mrs. Brown, one morn- ing, "I am quite proud of her." She is improving wonderfully. The t r�•vtment works well in both rases," replied Mrs. Otis, panting to the bay - window where a lovely bloom was just opening on the now flourishing ger- anium.
