WARNED
BY HEALTH OFFICERS
Home e-Comers Told Of Care Which
Should Be Exercised in Re-
opening Their Houses.

Hundreds of washingtonians returning
home from vacations spent In the noun
tains or at the seashore are met with
a word Of warning from the District
Health Department and caution TO
guard against diseases.
Household ventilation especially Is en-
phasized in the advice that is offered to
prevent any sickness that might other
wise result from a return to dwelling
that has been Gnoccupied for months.
Vacationists should plan to return home
as early in the day as is possible, In or
der that the household may be thorough
Iy aired and filed with sunshine before
nightfall Much sickness which might
have been avoided by Observing this rule
Is yearly contracted by persons coming
home late at night and sleeping in a
room which has been closed for months.
Another thing which vacationists
should guard against is neglect to screen
their windows and doors. Many who
leave the city with the first warm days
Of summer and do not return until fall
neglect to screen their windows and
doors for the short period before cold
weather begins. This is very dangerous,
for the flies. with the approach of cool
weather. seek the warmer atmosphere Of
the houses and bring millions of dis
ease germs with them.
Vacationists are cautioned to thorough
ly air and clean their cellars Immediate
ly after their return home. The cellars
naturally become damp and musty after
being closed for months and are a men,
ace to health unless given proper atten-
ton. They should be whitewa shed twice
a year and made imperviouS to gases or
water leaking into them through the

HOW TO KEEP CUT
FLOWERS FRESH
Sugar Solutions of Varying Strength
Prove Most Effective in
Most Cases.

Modern research has developed the art
Of preserving cut flowers to q point
undreamed of a few years ago. The old
way was to cut on the end of the flower
stem or scar it or add salt water. Science
applied the principles of osmotic pressure
to the subject.
They reasoned that when flowers con-
tanning salts in their juices were placed
in pure water the unequal pressure
thereby developed ruptured the cell walls
and made the plant wilt. Consequently
they tried a great number of solutions
for preserving the cut flowers and found
that when the osmotic pressure Of the
solution outside equaled that of the
juices in the flower, the best results
were obtained.
Sugar solutions OF varying strength
proved the most effective, except in the
case of lilies, lilacs, and sweet peas.
Carnations lasted longest in a Is per cent
sugar solution, while roses were most
permanent in a sugar solution Of half
that strength. Chrysanthemums and tu-
lips are not benefited, but effort is being
made to discover a suitable preservation
for them also.
Although lilacs are not benefited by a
sugar solution only, yet il they are kept
in a Il per cent sugar solution, which
also contains Tooth of 1 per cent man.
ganese sulphate, they last much longer
than usual and improve in tint. One of
the United States experiment stations
has begun experiments in this line and
new results are expected.

The New York Evening Post. In COM
menting upon what the moving picture
show replaces" says in part:
The moving picture show is something
more than popular. II is intimate. To
an extraordinary extent IL is entering into
the daily thought of the masses. The
good men and women who are fond Of
writing on literature and life, who are
devoting themselves TO the task OF bring
ing the drama into touch with the life
Of the people, must be amazed. and
slightly chagrined. at the intensity with
which the flm-play has seized upon the
popular imagination. The crowds not
only throng to the shows, they talk
about them; on street corners, in the
cars. and over the hoods OF baby car
riages. From time to time there have
been plays in the regular theater which
have become the theme OF general dis
cussion. There have been players whom
the public has made its favorites. But
the theater as an institution has hardly
impressed itself upon the popular mind
in this country. A show was either good
or bad, and there II ended with the
average theatergoer. The technique of
the theater was a subject for profes-
sionaIs and "highbrows" But the crowd
discusses the technique of the moving
picture theater with as much interest as
literary salons in Paris or London dis
cuss the minutae of the higher drama.
The crowd knows how the films are
made, and what il costs to make them,
and who the leading actors in the show
are. The producers of these shows have
achieved an extraordinary triumph. They
have converted, their entire audience into
first-nighters.

THE CULTIVATION
OF BEAUTIFUL IVY
A Rich Soil Is Not Needed, but Vine
Must Be Given Shade and
Moisture.

AS far back as the Pagan, until the
present day there has always been an in
tense love and reverence for the ivy.
Whether in Bacchic revels or IN the
church, the attachment seems to be the
same-the term. English ivy, seems TO
be much abused. as all sorts of ivy, Irish,
African, and Asiatic, have infrequentIy
been termed English ivy, so that really
English ivy is just plain.ivy.
While the ivy is climbing or creeping,
its leaves are more or less lobed and it
produces plentiful claspers, by means of
which it attaches itself tightly to the
surface Of the wall. When the vine has
reached certain development, bushy
spurlike branches that Giroop are pro-
duced, and the leaves become modified
in form, growing narrower.
Yellow GreenIsh Flowers.
greenish flowers form at the end of the
branches followed later by black berries.
Ivy may be cultivated as a bush or as
a tree. In planting ivy, it is well to re-
member that young ivy plants need a
little thoughtful consideration from time
to time until they get a good start when
they can be left to look after themselves
rich soil is by no means necessary.
The ivy does, however, need moisture
ana When young should not be allowed
to go thirsty or to be exposed to the
heat of the sun. There is foolish
prejudice existing against ivy growing on
the walls OF house. There is no dam
age to be feared so long as the walls
are sound-in fact, ivy is distinctly bene-
fetal, promoting dryness and warmth.
Slow I'm Growth.
The chief objection in planting ivy
seems to be that it takes SO long to
grow, consequently Virginia creeper or
something that will spring up with equal
alacrity is used. While these vines have
their proper places and excellencies, no
of gorgeous, flaming color in the
autumn can make up for the satisfaction
Of the sturdy green of the ivy to
cheer US.
During the dark days Of winter its
wholesome green against the snow gives
a pleasant contrast and lessons the
blackness that might exist. A good
building it will grace and an unsightly
one it will redeem. Because ivy covers
a house is no reason why II should have
an unkempt appearance. 1t can be trim
med and trained any way one wishes
Its decorative possibilities are unlimited.

AS for some of US, if there is a falling
of, as statistics assert, we would divide
the responsibility between the two rea-
sons:
woman's greater economic independ-
ence and the dismaying increase in the
cost Of living.
Regarding the first, it is rather fair to
assume that a few of the 100000 un-
married men really put their courage to
the test and received a regretful little
no" Because that really happens once
in a while, you know. OF course If they
try once and fail they can try again and
for as many times as they like. but the
point of it is that woman's position as
wage Garner today makes her COM
paratively free to say yes" or no as
she likes, whereas yesterday and the
day before she had little enough choice.
Yes, one believes that something more
may be involved than the single factor
of mans preference for celibacy.
And as to the second, nobody wonders
at that, for valiant hearts are ready to
quail before the soaring prices, and it is
not strange that men falter on the brink
and never go any further.
The Washington herald., 1913-09-03
Another Reason Given.

Then. some of the folk who are looking
for reasons. declare that in the old days
when young women remained in the
homes of their fathers, waiting for kind
ly fate to overtake them, they were
quite unsophisticated, always anxious to
please and to charm. So their bad little
tricks were all hidden away, and nobody
guessed their defects of temperament.
But now. through their closer associa-
tionsin business and their greater freedom
to meet in other ways, they stand re-
vealed, each to the other, and the CLAM
or is gone. Maybe the young women
would venture the same as of old and
trust to their powers to reform, but the
young men fear to step in. and so they.
too. help swell the timid 100000. At
least, that is what they say.
