WINTER WINDOW GARDENS.
What Plants to Depend Upon Through
Gold Weather.

What Slants to depend upon ihrou9n
Cold Weather.
This is the time to stock the winter
house garden. Some plants are to be
saved from the garden and some or
dered from the florist.
Benjamin Goodrich tells the readers
of Country Life that 10 window gar
den plant is more dependable than the
common geranium, especially in the
single varieties, which are handsomest
for the purpose. He mt the gera-
MUM first for gayety, the heliotrope
next for fragrance and says a good
word for that old fashioned flower,
sweet alyssum, which gives the note
of white and if not allowed to go to
seed blooms continuously.
Premula obconica is recommended
for it's free blooming habit, its pale
plnkish blossoms being produced in
abundance. He has a good word also
for that beautiful pink begonia, Gloire
de Lorraine, but he says it is less de
pendable than the tall coral begonia
B. coccInea), whose large red bios
SONS hang from the stif stems for
three or four months. Another good
begonia IS B. semperforens, var. gi-
gantea rosea. These will provide
bloom.
Forced Dutch and cape bulbs,
brought in in succession, add much to
the interest of the winter garden. The
30 called Chinese lily, double Roman,
Won Sion, Grand Soleil dor narcissi,
crocus and Princess Marianne tulip
will make a string of blooms from
Christmas to early April" Hyacinths,
single and Roman f~reesia. ixia,
drop and scilla are also favorably men
toned.

WHY ANAN1As TAINTED.

IBoOne News- Repu blicanJ.
Old "Screwface" Swick served in the

but when the old geezer gets to talking
about what he did and what somebody
else did not DO during the great strug-
gle for supremacy. he Is positively the
limit. Old Ananias hasn't got thing
on Swick. Old An ia mild and meek
liar by the side Of Pee Dee (chirp.
chirp), and Ananias isn't so slow
either.
Swick drifted into the News Repub-
l;can Office the other day when some
one carelessly left the front door open
and he pulled chair around TO the
writer's desk and started. Swick can
talk by the yard without even stopping
to catch his hreath-therefore he'd
make a GOOD roller skater. He told of
this and that feat which he did in the
service Of the country and his reminis-
cences got real interesting. A couple
OF high school boys happened in TO see
about some printing and Swick insisted
on having them for his audience also.
They liked his stories and envied him
way down in their heart.
But ore thing came up which Swick
should never have permitted to slip. He
told about four Johnnies getting hold
OF him and starting him off for Ander-
sonvil!e prison. Now four rebels with
loaded guns would make an ordinary
man cover with fear. But not Swick
He walked along until he came in
sight OF creek running between two
banks. the banks being an even sixty
feet apart. Swick saw his chance and
with lightning -Iike pidity broke from
his captors. dar.ed thru bunch OF un-
derbrush and in an instant's time was
on the other side and running like a
deer He was out Of sight before the
rebels could aim thir guns. Swick look
ed down at his shoes when he stopped
for a moments rest and nary particle
OF mud did he see on them. They were
as dry as the day they came from the
quartermaster or whoever dished them
Swick leaped from one bank to the
other sixty feet. never even touching
his feet to the yellow clay and water
beneath. OF course Swick believes that
