tells that their long life is only a

advantage OF electrical light and
steam heat, making a better at
mosphere for palms than do gas
and the furnace, but beyond this
it is necessary to keep them moist
at the root and out OF the cold air.
Twice week she fills the top Of
each pot with water; once a fort
night. with tlower-sprayer, she
cleans the leaves which must d rip
dry. When housld for the winter,
near the window for sunlight to
reach them, she never allows
draft to blow on the palms, except
on the balmiest days no window
is opened to dust until they are re-
moved to a place of safety. II in
spite of this care they drOop, the
florist is sent for, and if he finds
moisture and drainage good he
will look for worms, which are a
palms greatest enemies, but can
be Cus out without great detri-
ment to the plant. Clean water an
even warn temperature and sun
