FERNS NEED SPECIAL CARE
Too Frequent Watering of This Sensi-
tive Plant, for instance, is to
Be Avoided.

Is your fern suffering from summer
complaint?
II 1t is you have failed to learn the
most important of all facts in the care
of ferns, which is that too frequent
watering is not good for these delicate
plants. The Boston variety. or short
curly kind, is generally considered
difficult to keep in a thriving condi-
ton, yet one woman finds the task
comparatively easy.
This housewife, who takes pecu-
liar joy in all the beauty pertaining to
a home, declares the fern should be
kept in front of window, where 1t
receives the morning sun. 1t must
stand on a soft surface, sand In jar
diniere much larger than the fern pot
being one of the best arrangements.
This allows 1t to get plenty of air, an
essential point in its care.
Do not water the fern more often
than every other day. Now and then
It is best to wait three or four days,
as a good dryout is most advisable.
Take the fern into the laundry or
basement and give 1t a good bath
once or twice a month.
Never let the temperature average
more than 70 in the room where the
fern Is kept. cooler atmosphere be-
ing better. Keep the plants free from
dry or dead leaves. II possible, place
the fern In shady place In the yard

There is pleasing LONELINESS
about chintz room which gives it a
subtle attraction. Most women at this
time of year are attacked with a
laudable desire to redress their rooms
SO that the time of summer and the
singing birds is suggested and vim
ter's sunless cold forgotten
The most obvious way to achieve
the redressing is to choose a suitable
chintz and to order loose covers for
all the chairs and sofas, ottomans and
cushions In the room. The favorite
colorings this season give a range OF
tulip shades. purple, rose red, deep
buff or scarlet. These have some.
times black ground. as in the days
of Louis Philippe. Huge soft cush
ions, Square or round in shape. are OF

pendant fiouncing.

In oriental patterns, and the furniture
or bibelots In the Chinese taste, which
is now SO much to the fore, accord
well WAN BUM utSi5Hh. An e1CeHSnl
result is obtained II panels of the
printed linen or chintz are placed on
the wall instead of paper, and old
prints show up well with such a back.

Old needlework is now reproduced
in glazed chintz, and fine Italian pat,
terms glowing with subdued blues,
reds and browns, with that cloudet
mauve only seen in Italian silks, and
bed of anemones gives a touch oil

A single mauve cushion and one OF
black in soft silk are generally intro.
duced as daring note. Pomegran.

MADE UP OF ODDS AND ENDS
Very Pretty Are the Candle Shades
of Lace Designed In All Shapes
and Golors.

Very fetching are the new candle
shades whose foundation is a finely
plated fiber, and that can be had in
all colors. The straight narrow EN-
pire shade is the favorite, though some
of the designs spread sharply at the
bottom.
The decoration is varied, some have
festoons of tiny ribbon flowers in soft
tones, others have inserts of fiImy
lace combined with the flowers, and
some have bands and frills of lace
headed with narrow metal gimp.
A candle shade that looks well with
all color schemes is made of crystal
beads. strung into fanciful designs and
finished with bead fringe. The favorite
is pagoda shape, another is bell shape.
and some are square. These beads
are usually made up over white lining,
but are effective over warm yellow,
green or American Beauty tone.
The girl who has odds and ends of
lace can put them to no better use
than to make a set OF four candle
shades, Finish the top with a tiny
lace gimp, which may likewise con-
ceal the seam II the lace must be
pieced.

new SPHINX FOUND

Figure Fourteen Feet High Of AIabas-
ter, Dug From Between the Co.
iossi in Water-Losged Plain
Of Old Memphis.

Cairo, Egypt Another sphinx.
weighing ninety tons. and carved from
single block of alabaster. has been
unearthed at a point between the
world-famed Colossi, on the water
logged plains of Memphis, in Egypt.
For hundreds of years 1t has lain in a
recumbent position buried beneath the
sands on the road to Sakkareh. To-
day 1t is half-exposed to view. and
next year it Is to be raised to verti-
cal position above the water-line.
This newly found sphinx was betray-
ed in its hiding place by its tail, which
Mr.. Mackay one Of the students of the
British School in Egypt, discovered
about year ago. This year. when
complete figure was excavated, and
was found to measure some fourteen
feet In height and twenty-six feet in
length. Alabaster being rock foreign
to the neighborhood. the new sphinx
ranks as the la.gest that has ever
been transported. The figure bears no
inscription, but is considered by Prof.

carved about 1900 b. c. Many other
remarkable discoveries, taking the

lifting the veil of centuries from

made by the same school, and, with
