HALLIDAY HAS SOME EXCELLENT WINDOW DECORATIONS.—MUCH INTEREST IN THK CLUB.—MRS. BILL RECOVERING. It is not common to decorate windows elaborately during Lent but the display of VV. J. Halliday was quite a picture last week. One window was banked with ericas, bunches of the same being carried up the columns at the side by means of Kift hangers. Tartan ribbons were used here and there, the evident design being a Scotch effect, except in one corner where a tall cluster of American Beauties with a small bunch of red, white and blue ribbon gave the American touch. Back of all was a mass of genistas. The other window was massed with rhodo- dendrons behind Bridesmaid roses. Lily of the valley and violets finished the front and a large but verv slenderly built wreath of the same flowers was suspended midway above. The effect was most pleasing.

Graham, who have been appointed a committee to extend the membership of the national society. Mack. Methuen, Mass —The greenhouses of Jas.
