there you can have such plants as you want. Roses, geraniums, and Canterbury Bells are good ones. And then, you transplant to those beds your seedlings that you have already started yourselves.”

      “And can’t we plant any seeds in the flower beds?”

      “Oh, yes; such as do not need transplanting. You can have borders of portulacca, candytuft, sweet alyssum, and such things.”

      “My! it sounds grand!” said Dolly, to whom nearly all these names were new.

      “Now suppose we go out there again,” said Aunt Rachel, “and see what seeds Pat has on hand. Then we’ll know what to buy for you.”

      So back went the quartette, and found the playground had assumed quite a definite air.

      A narrow strip of upturned earth showed the line of the hedge that was to be set out. The flower-beds and seed-beds were neatly cut in shape and properly spaded. Little stakes marked the places for the arbor poles, and white cords outlined paths that were yet to be cut.

      “It doesn’t seem possible it’s ours!” said Dolly, drawing a blissful sigh of contentment.

      “Now here’s some seeds as I already have,” said Pat, offering a box of packets to the children.

      “Oh, can we plant some now, – right away?” asked Dick.

      “Yes; let us do so,” said Aunt Abbie, who was nearly as eager as the children to get the garden started.

      So they selected nasturtiums, poppies, marigolds, and morning glories from Pat’s box, and all went to work at the planting.

      The aunts showed Dick and Dolly how to poke a little hole in the ground, about three inches deep, and then drop in a nasturtium seed. Then they covered it over with dirt, pressed it down lightly, and watered it.

      This was an enthralling occupation, and the children worked carefully and did just as they were told. Poppies came next, and these seeds were planted quite differently. The ground was made quite smooth, and then slightly watered. Then Pat showed them how to sprinkle the fine seed scantily over the top of the ground, and not put any dirt over it at all. A thin layer of cut grass was scattered over them to keep the seeds from too much sunlight.
