Garden Asters.

One Of the most popular ANNALS is
the aster. The flowers are borne III
profusion On long stems and in pleas
ing colOrs. They are excellent for cut
ting, and any amateur gardener with
al aster bed may have q ~profusion OF
blossoms for home decoration.
If early flowers are desired 1t is best
to obtain plants which have been start
ed indoors during the early spring
months. They will stand considerable
cold provided they have been given
sever treatment from the start, but
If they have been grown In warm
houses they are easily injured by frost.
For a succession Of blooms, sowings
may be made every two weeks until
the list of June, which will insure a
continuous crop until October provid-
ed both early and late varieties are
grown.
Asters thrive best In a rather rich,
moist soil and give best results when
never allowed to suffer from want Of
water. The early varieties should be
planted n foot apart each way and
the late branching varieties eighteen
inches apart each way. By restricting
each plant to a limited number Of
flowers the blossoms will grow much
larger and more perfect in form. With
the late branching varieties fine bios
SONS may be had by breaking the cen
ter bud and allowing only four to six
of the strongest side growths to re-

Doing WeIfsrs Work.
Recently a prominent New York club
woman discovered that her husbands
stenographer, a very capable woman,
was supporting an invalid mother and
sister on a salary of SIS q week. Her
husband happened to chuckle over the
fact that be got more work out Of the
SIS a week oma than out of the mar
to whom be had formerly given S25.
Instead of %applauding his business
sharpness, the wife expostulated. Net
tied, the husband retorted that be
couldn't in the present state of bust
ness afford to pay the stenographer
more unless his wife could give up q
projected trip abroad.
"Ill give 1t up in a minute. i
should feel just as II l had taken the
money out of that girls pocket since
you have put 1t In that way" was her
reply.
The result was that the stenogra.
piers salary was increased, and, al
though 1t was not really necessary to
give up the trip, the clubwoman in
sisted on living up to her part Of the
bargain.
The average man means well, but
sometimes the demands for money
made on him by his own women folk
are so great and insistent that he Is
apt to lose sight of the interest of his
women employees, who are usually
more easily imposed upon that men.

About Lima Beans.

1t Is not necessary to use poles in
growing pole lima beans. If the vines
are clipped off when they are about
two feet high and new n clip
ped as 500 as they appear the vines
will produce an excellent crop and
continue to bear until frost. This is
in marked contrast to bush limas,
which have a brief bearing period.
Give the llmas plenty of room, two
feet or even three feet each way.

Hardy Chrysanthemums.

ChrySanthemumS which will perfect
their flowers in the northern states out
of doors before the frost comes are
not numerous. Your florist can tell
you what varieties are suitable for
your locality.
Planting should not be done until
all danger of frost Is over. Select a
sheltered position, if possible one with
a southern aspect. Chrysanthemums
are partial to a very rich, well drain
ed soil and require a liberal s1iDp3yy Of
water. They sQ9n suffer If allowed
to become dry. Plant either in masses
about a foot apart to secure general
effect or plant single specimens to Sc
cure symmetrical plants.
A position with a southern aspect is
particularly advantageous in the more
northern localities, and If planted to
the south of q building, fence, shrub
berry or some other protection they
are guarded from early frosts, which
blacken and ruin the buds. AS the
plants are gross feeders, the soil
should be we'll enriched, and after the
buds are formed an inch top dressing
Of well rotted manure will be benef-
cial. At the close of the Towering
season the plants should be cut back
to within five inches of the ground
and given a light covering Of leaves
to protect them through the winter.

Many pleasant friendship has been
broken by ignorance of good form in
gift making Many a social career has
been nipped in the bud by present
i'll chosen or wrongly sent.
If you are rich and have some friend
who has lost her money be careful that
your gift does not reflect your knowl-
edge of her financial straits. Remem-
ber that somehow she will manage to
buy the obviously necessary thing.
while her heart still hungers for the
dainty. the luxurious touches Of life.
Again. there is the wealthy friend
of your family to whom you brought
letters of introduction when you came
to town. She has not taken you into
the bosom of her family. but occasion
ally at her large and general functions
she has entertained you. Choose no
gorgeous gift in such case. Rather
send her a beautiful flower on Christ
mas morning with we'll wOrded
greeting or the newest book about
which her world is surely talking.
