LONDON TIMES ON TEMPERANCE
What This Great Newspaper Has TO
Say About the Great Drink Evil.

Recent discussion of the progress of
temperance conviction among the peo-
pie prompts the famous Times. Lon
don's journalistic oracle, which has
almost always heretofore treated the
temperance reform with cynical dis.
dain, to the following unusual and en-
couraging comment on the question of
abstinence:
According 10 recent developments
OF scientific opinion. it is now possible
that belief in the Strengthening and
supporting quantities of alcohol will
eventually become as obsolete as a
belief in witchcraft.
The whole question really turns up
On the consciousness that alcoholic
drinks satisfy some kind of temporary
want. or produce some temporary COM
fort of exhilaration. coupled with be-
lief. which modern physiology is doing
her best to dispel. that they are at
least essentially harmless when con-
sumed in moderation. II may be
stated as an opinion upon which most,
II not all, psychologists are agreed,
that alcohol contributes nothing TO
the permanent powers Of the healthy
organism, whether physical or intel
lectual No man. it is said. is the
stronger for taking it. and no man is
the wiser. The experience, now very
extensive. OF Insurance Offices seems
to place it beyond doubt that even the
moderate regular use OF alcohol, In
any form, Is, on the whole, contribu-
tory to the shortening OF life. When
these views come 70 be fairly balanced

the more intelligent portion OF man.

This is an utterance that should
startle the almighty brewers and

POSIES In WINTER.
FLOWERS EASILY CULTIVATED
AND CARED FOR.
Now is the Time 20 Plant and Tend
Them IL You Would Have Their
Bloom During Cold Months.


Just because winter is near Il is no,
necessary To give up the companion
ship Of growing things and lose the de
light of seeing them gradually develoT
into bloom. There are other ways OF
growing flowers than In the ground.
In few weeks bulbs must be plant
ed and tended II you want flowers tc
bloom in your house in the Christmas
season.
The hyacinths viii repay the slight
trouble required better than any other
flower. They are beautiful when they
come and they last long. Freesias are
pretty and fragrant. and the Chinese
lilies planted now or next month will
bloom beautifully by Christmas There
are doubling persons who say that one
must be Chinese laundryman 10 have
success with these bulbs. but they are
In reality very easy TO grow.
They are grown In a low glass or
china bowl filled with water and peb-
bles 20 hold the bulbs in place. A
long. irregular bowl holding 20 bulbs
made a beautiful water garden when
the flowers were in bloom.
The water should cover the bulbs
20 within an inch OF the apex IL need
not be changed every day. as bit of
charcoal dropped into IL will keep II
fresh. but il should be renewed once a
week
Only tepid water should be poured
over the bulbs. and the bowl ought
10 be set in a sunny place. There is
no better site for this convenient gar
den than a sunny window sill, unless
II Is necessary TO open the window too
often.
Unlike the hyacinths. these bulbs
do not have TO be kept In the dark
until they are started. They begin
TO grow just so soon as they are put
into water and sunlight, and have
been known TO develop at the rate OF
IN inch a day.
After starting one bowl, IL is we'll
TO wait week before getting another
under way. If third is started after
that ii will provide an abundance OF
flowers for several weeks.
Hyacinth bulbs vary much in price
The graceful Roman hyacinths are
beautiful and cost rarely more than 5
a quarter.
The newer glasses to grow them in
are prettier than the tall. funnel
shaped vases that were so long the
only kind available. This year there
are IN the market low, broad bottomed
jugs in which the plants grow Just as
readily and look much more graceful
The bulbs must be allowed to touch
the water only at the base. Rain
water is thought by some to be best
adapted for growing bulbs In glass in
this way.
After the bulbs are In place the
glasses should be put into a cool, dry
place. where they viii not be exposed
TO the light. say the top shelf OF
closet. After two weeks they should
be brought into the sunlight They
should never be put too near a steam
heater.
Hyacinths planted In pots must be
kept in the dark for six weeks. The
soil sold at the seed stores mixed with
little sand is all that is needed
