When she was debutante, anu a TOT some time ,afterward, did she not see the young married women receiving the most of the attention that was going round, the first choice for cotillons theater parties supper parties, yachting parties card parties and all manner of other sprees that rarely come In the way of the unmarried girl! Did she not see that the most agree able men who had long since cut their eve. teeth and were beginning to wear down their wisdom teeth were almost invariably found In the society of young married women, running in and out of their houses lunching with them, lounging In their opera boxes and scurrying about town in their carriages and automobiles? Was it not to be her blessed privilege to ioinsthis independent group of merry -makers? Not at once of course. She must bide her time and make her impress little by little

Maude was us fond of riding and driving and golf as ne was, so they had decided to build me country place somewhere near West Dury, l.. l., where their fayorite sports were III vogue and where many of their best lrlen1s were already established. He had already bought the land. some 90 acres.jn the north country, not far from famous mlllionaire's property, and was deep ln con sultation with his architects about inc plans Tor house which might.be more elaborate than one of their wealthy neighbors and less so than another. It would take about year to complete such residence and in the meantime the spring months COTS he occupied with jaunt to London ana iiaris and the autumn at the Hot springs ana making visits. When two souls have bnta single thought and two hearts beat as onP. and both are young and each has large bank account, 1t is not so difficult to pass the time.

Her costumes are dreams. She wears them with a chic born of conscious wifehood. She rides, drives. golfs, yacbts. nIavs tennis and squash to her hearts con- tent She has acquired the mastery or q ilt- tie autocar of her own, and is quite lnde- pendent of her pretty chestnuts and phae- ton-a recent acquisition. She scarcely eats a meal at home. so great is the demand for her society.
 She attends freak balls. monkey dinners social leaders first state dinner and Is greatly admired by q Russian grand duke and other celebrities. But her head is never turned. Has she not had eight months ex- pericnce of married life in town and has she not already been admitted to that magic circle of young married women who rule society with bonds that are no less rigid because they are of lace, velvet and chiffon?
 She looks forward now to gradually as- cendlng scale of her own importance and authority, interrupted now and then by the cares of maternity In another season or two she will be a patroness of this or that ball or bazaar, an organizer and almoner of great charities. an arbiter of fashions, a leader of men as well as of women, famous for her house parties in the chateau on Long Island and for her dinners in town, as well known in London and Paris as at home, feted and courted by all, envied by many, disliked by none.

 Chinese lilies, both white and gold, double and single, and the paper white narcissus need only bowl of gravel and water. Each bulb requires six-inch bowl, and larger bowls are required where several are plnnted together. The golden lily, however, has Il small bulb, and six or eight are usually planted together.
