The winters in Denmark are dull,- long, blustering and sunless, and it Is not easy to make plants grow. Nevertheless, every poor home las its window boxes and flower -pots, and the little homes are often brightened with smiling blossoms. 'Rho housewife is proud of her flowers, and when she .speaks of them she does, not merely say that she has grown them. She says thatthey have been 'loved up," The phrase, beautiful and significant, is used of 'anything into which a man puts hiswhple soul. He wne Saniuel was no ordinary child. i mould' "loved an." Hannah's prayers surely ed Samuel's life. And -Samuel leaned how to `love up" the people.
