CHEAP CONSERVATORIES.
Winter Window Transformed into
Veritable Fairyland
There Is No Reason Why Every Home
Should Not Have Flowers How to
Make an InvaIid's Room CHEEKY
aud Attractive.

Her house. she says, is no bigger than
a minute. with dining-room window
opening on a series of clean but ugly
backwards. where neighbors will hang
out their Monday wash, so she consult
ed nice florist around the corner. The
suggestion was to put off the disagree
able view by an arrangement of plants,
and the bill must needs be extremely
modest.
This is what the florist did for the
small consideration of SIS: He took out
the lower sash of the window entirely
and fastened outside the sill deep zinc
box. measuring 21s feet on all sides. 1t
was supported by iron brackets on the
outside wall beneath the window and
then with four squares of skylight
glass. the sort that is near an inch thick
and a cloudy pale green in tint, he put
slanting roof and sides over the zinc
box. reaching from its outer edges 10
the bottom of the windows upper sash.
This done. the box was filled Wi tn earth
and planted with cheap hardy ferns.
hedded down with lycopodium and
given color and fragrance by adding n
few mignonette and cyclamen plants.
1t was when finished an ideal little
conservatory. that she framed in by
drawing the shade down to a level with
the lower end of the top sash and loop
ing back her white lace curtains,
Through the heavy glass the autumn
sun shines with just sufficient energy
to keep the plants in good health and
the proper temperature. Its proud
owner satisfies her horticultural tastes
by spraying the leaves once every "a
hours from a florists bulb. All day the
cool green nook and the heavy glass
shut off the back yards effectually and
at night the drawn shade shelters the
sensitive plants from artificial light.
There is no reason on the whole why
every city or country house in winter,
she thinks. should not have one such
window box to every living room. The
chief expense is their building for the
zinc box and glass are the costly items,
but clever brother or husband can put
them together in the proper shape, and

the hardy ferns, lycopodium, ETC., cost
very little at any florists; dollar and
ii half well laid out will plant the box
fully, not to reckon on the inestimable
value such corner of growing flowers
is to any room in the winter. Itchanges
the whole aspect of things, and so wide
~ has she recommended her plan that
the little florist round the corner has
more orders for winter boxes than he
can fill.
The prettiest little conservatory built
in a long time was made for semi
invalid who is very fond of flowers and
tried to experiment with orchids and
palms. One long window of her bed
room she had cleared of sash and blinds
and circular shelf or bow window
built out from the sill on brackets about
three feet long and three wide. Then
in wooden frame she had the open
window inclosed like bay. glazed with
regular window glass.
The materials and carpenters work
cost her SIS. and when it was finished
she began to buy any orchids, large or
small, that could thrive indoors. Her
purchases ran chiefly to cattleyas and
the yellow butterfly variety, that as
healthy plants in boxes cost her from rs
cents to twice that sum. These she
hung by cords of varying length from
the roof of her conservatory, and for
~ apiece she bought half dozen small
rubber plants and thriving little
palms. You can scarcely picture the
brilliant beauty of that recess when
the orchids began to bloom. Then
hung "A cloud of the loveliest lavender
and yellow over the greenery below like
glimpse into fairyland through the
lace curtains.
This conservatory is large enough for
one person to stand in. 1t cost, the
plants included. about $25. and is q
sight like Katishaw's elbow-a lovely
sight that her friends came miles to
see. She wisely chose the orchids be-
cause. when healthy plants. they require
less care than any others. bloom more
readily. their flowers last longer, and
if their boxes are wisely enriched at
intervals will last without other notice
from season to season.
ION the WHOLE" said the little florist
convincingly. II see no reason why
every woman should not have at least a
window box in her home for the winter
for if she is not lucky at flowers, any
florist will send skillful man to put
her plants in order every four weeks
charging her so cents for the pro.
fessional visit, not big price to pay for
something more ornamental in the long
run than the costlest ric-a-brac."-St

Feathers are everywhere. Combined
with imitation jewels and jet they make

points made of black ostrich plumes
ARE strikingly effective on light col
ored evening gowns. Small curly tips
are used for outlining decollete bodices.
In the stores narrow feather trimming
is sold by the yard for expensive cloth

to simulate vest or to outline seams.
Spangles are frequently combined with
