n of oneof these real out of doors rooms, with itswhite lattice and trailing vines, whose coolleafage is a perfect screen from the passers-by and from the summer sun. When Juneshowers us with her *thousand beauties andsweet September sees rich purple grapeshanging from the trellised frame, who willdeny the pergola its value as an integralpart of the garden, or hesitate to admit thatits beauty is paralleled by its usefulness andworth? And here we will take leave of our Home,-planned for our happiness and comfort inthe days to come. Let us strive to make our house a RealHome; not just a place to eat and sleep in,a place to store fine furniture, or a museum ofrare and costly things; but a place to live in,to rest in, to be happy in, to which we clingfor its associations with those we hold dear;so that the little ones who are growing uparound us may be rightly influenced therebyand may look back, when they are full-grown,with loving thoughts and memories to thehappy days spent there. 20 ^
