This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1885 edition. Excerpt: ... economy, purity, humility, liberality, perseverance and restfulness, which go a long way towards the production of a virtuous life. We may, I think, commence this branch of our study by observing the ECONOMY OF PLANT LIFE. The term economy is sometimes employed with reference to a system of rules and ceremonies, sometimes in regard to regular operations, as the economy of nature: but its most general use is that which concerns the management of affairs, the expenditure of money or material wealth, the nurturing and preservation of those qualities and materials which are of greatest importance with reference to the well-being of the person in its social or physical relations. One man who is of delicate constitution economises his strength, and to do so refrains from speaking in public, taking part in exciting debates, keeping late hours, spending much time in society. Another man of slender means economises his money by banking all he can spare, buying only such articles as are abso. lutely necessary, and adding to his little stock by further careful labours and judicious speculations. What we thus regard as a virtue and discretion in man we may witness also in the economy of nature, whether the provision be made by the plants themselves, or be regarded as a law which has been imposed upon them, which they are bound to obey.

Excerpt from The Ministry of Flowers: Being Some Thoughts Respecting Life, Suggested by the Book of Nature Every true lover of flowers must have been struck by the fact that these gems of earth are capable of imparting large stores of knowledge, if only the eyes are open to see, and the heart to receive them. We cannot understand the narrowness of mind which exists in some good people who love the sight of the flowers as they grow in copse and meadow, but cannot tolerate their use for charitable or Vreligious purposes. They allow wretched imitations to adorn their houses in the shape of wall-paper, and Chimney ornament they allow the sculptor to carve representations on the pillars of the sanctuary, and they do not protest against their symbolic use on stained glass or in the border of some painted panel, bearing the Paternoster or the Creed yet they will not admit the pure, innocent.
