the interest and Inquiry regarding business

tendency of the business section to adjust
itself to the new union station, In anticipa-

is very evident. The chances seem strong
that G street will become one of the i'm
This increase of value is reflected in the

these streets, as well as New York avenue

clusively for business in the near future.
Such change Is now going on along VI

as twenty-five years ago was taking place
on F street. That is, it Is rapidly changing
from residence to business uses. This COM

PLANS FOR SUMMER.
Tuberous Begonias and Gloxinta
Bulbs Started in Moss.

Idn VI. Angel in Suburban Life.
Tuberous begonias and gloxinia bulbs may
be started in moss. for summer blooming
Bore holes in a cigarbox and half fill II
with moss: put the bulbs in and cover
them with more moss. Then give the box
a good soaking, and keep it In warm
spot, where the temperature is from seventy
damp by spraying, but at this stage light
is not essential In two weeks sprouts Will
begin to grow. When they show through
the moss place the box in lighter place,
but not in the sunshine.
Pot the bulbs when the first leaves de-
velop. For this purpose clean four-tnch
pots are best. First put in two inches of
broken material for drainage. then a mix
ture of leaf mold and sand. Set the bulbs
in very loosely. and be particularly careful
not to bruise the leaves. Give them little
water at first and set them In shaded
spot.
When the plants begin to grow generous
sprinkling of the leaves. Seventy degrees
will now suit them best. AS soon as flower
buds show they will need liquid manure
once week. The moist atmosphere which
they require may be provided by filling
large pots with moss. which is kept wet !;
set the potted bulbs in it.
These directions are especially for glox-
inlas, but begonias may be treated in the
same way, with a difference, as they must
be started in a cool room and potted in
heavy soil. This treatment will produce
strong begonia plants late In May, which is
the right time to set them out

Dress and W ork.
Chicago Tribune

From the Chicago Tribune.
Not to be especially conspicuous as an
individual in dress has come to be the
cardinal doctrine of the gentleman, and it
Is that factor OF good breeding together
with adaptation for doing the work of
man, that is really ut the bottom Of the
much -decried prosaic uniformity in mems
dress. Sameness in style is not necessarily
ugliness. nor does 1t initiate against the
strongest individuality In character If
character is not the first attribute of man
hood, or womanhood, either, it is impossible
to say what Is first. In any hundred men
we will find only two three varieties of
hat, for example. but among hundred
women we will find. probably, a hundred
varieties. No woman is content to have
hat or gown precisely like that OF anv
other woman, and she wastes her time and
strength and exhausts her ingenuity to es
cape being rugged" like ANYBODY eIsa
There are millions of American women
most of whose waking hours are devoted
to shopping and planning and being
fitted
This must be. of necessity, an enormous
waste of energy unless dress be the chief
end and aim of living. In any case it must
be a nerve-racking, BRAIN tagging labor
to say nothing of Its cost in other WAYS
When men turned from the barbarities Of
warmaking and troubadorring and dancing
attendance on regal courts as the chief
business of men who aspired to be other
than hewers OF wood and drawers of water
and gave their attention to that endless
process of betterment which is known as
the worlds work. the first and inevitable
step was the simplifying of dress Men
recognized centuries ago that II they would
help lift the world upward they must cease
worrying over how they should dress. Only
few women yet recognize this but II
the whole sex could see how they sauander
their potential force in trying to be each a

of course, but ASKING only minimum Of
