Chill REN'S CORNER

and between us maybe we can have
some flowers"
So the cheerful little Japanese sun
flower smiled and set to growing.
Every day, from 10 till 2, the sun
shone on the plant, and every day
the roots grew stronger and the
stems grew taller.
But the golden rod grew, too.
never was there such tall golden rod!
And the poor little sunfower was
completely hidden.
One day in late September the gar
dener went round behind the golden
rod to hunt for weeds.
We'll, WE'LL" he exclaimed, "if here
isn't that sunhower plant-Id forgot
ten all about it. It's had hard time
back here in the shade. I guess I'll
move it next year, for it won't bloom
before frost at this rate"
oh, DEAR" shivered the sunfow-
er," SIS it time for frost? wanted
so much to open my buds-they are
nearly ready now"
The kind old sun heard the sun-
flower and said. Don't you worry
minute. I'm going to shine warmly
for few days yet and you can open
your flower buds
So the sun shone warm and cheer
ful, the warm winds blew the frost
away and the sunfower worked very
hard.
At last, on warm October day, the
first sunny bloom opened. And then
another and another, till the whole
bush was covered with miniature
suns.
And the kind old sun smiled down
and said, Now just look at those
blooms-we did that by working to-
gether."

PLANNING FOR NEW WEST
PHILADELPHIA HOSPITAL
Site for Proposed 100000 Institu-
tion Sought by Committee.

| tlon sought Dy committee.
Plans are well under way for a new
| 100000 hospital to be built near the boun-
| dary line of West Philadelphia and Della
ware County. Several public meetings
have been held within the last few weeks,
and a subscription fund of 1925 has been
raised. The movement is fostered by
nearly ali of the BUSINESS men on Wood
land avenue, from 55th street to Darby
seven large industrial plants and q ply
sicians.
Clearview Mansion. at I'D street and
Elmwood avenue. would make excellent
temporary quarters until the new building
could be erected. ii Is thought
The following were elected members of
the temporary committee: Thomas Demp-
sey, Paschalville, chairman: ]. B. Simp-
son, Darby, secretary; George Shaw, 62l7
Woodland avenue, treasurer and Dr. AL
bert Smith, Colwin; B. f. Magden, Darby;
Samuel Hartsensten, list street and
Woodland avenue, and the Rev. Allan
Baillie, 1410 North Conestoga street
The Rev. Allan Baille said there is
great need for the hospital In West Phil
adelphia and the surrounding territory
Granted the new hospital Is TO be located
near the boundary line between Delaware
County and the 10Th Ward" said Mr.
Baillie, the nearest hospital to the east
is the oveccrowded University Hospital,
about four or five miles away; the near
est to the south is the Chester Hospital |
about IL miles away; the nearest to the |
west Is Media, which is about II miles !
away, and the nearest to the north is the |
Homeopathic Hospital. about five miles |
away"
Large industrial plants west of PhIla- |
delphia, such Brill's Car Works and |
Fel's Soap Works are back of the prof.
ect. The district intended to be served |
by the new hospital are Southwest Phila-
delphia. Lansdowne. Darby, Colwln, Col
ingdale, Ridley Park and Sharon Hill.
A site has not yet been selected. but a
committee, Messrs. j. w. Camac, SD
street and Woodland avenue; Joseph
Swope, Darby. and DR.. John Armstrong,
Colwln. is seeking a location. Reports of
the committee for sites and subscriptions
will be submitted at meeting on Tues
day. September 20.

PERIOD ROOM EXAMPLE OF
GOOD TASTE IN FURNISHING
Wall Paper Dignified and Floor Has
Few Rugs, Well Placed.

Wall Paper Dignified and Floor Has
Few Rugs, Well Placed.
"H1s period room is an example of
good taste in furnishing. The wall
paper is restfu and dignifed, while
the floor. oil-hnished, shows the decided
advantage OF a few rugs we'll placed.
Even the most hopeless floor can be
made attractive with the use of a filler
and one of the many excellent finishes on
the market, at the cost of few dollars
and little work. The rag rugs. which
are so appropriate with old furniture,
may be purchased from 80 cents up to
several dollars for the small sizes.
Braided rugs. too. are charming with
mahogany furniture and may be easily
made at home. Our great-grandmother
always used odds and ends rugs, and the
cretonne curtains that you are tired of
or faded little can be used most eff
ciently in this way.
The double doors of the closets in this
room offer opportunities for many ar
rangements of drawers and shoe or hat
boxes. The mahogany chest of drawers
OF Sheraton style appeals to the lover of
a nice old piece, while the four-poster
with its old handmade spread, is very
appropriately dressed. There has been a
decided eye to comfort shown in the ar
rangement of the bedside table, with its
reading light clock and favorite books,
while the pictures are placed evidently
from sentimental point of view. The
crctonne cover on the old chair, of course
must match the curtains to finish this
well-balanced room

DEATH BALKS ARREST
Man for Whom Policeman Has War
rant Sueeumbs to Heart Disease.

WILMINGTON, Del. Sept. 25-When
Patrolman' Bullock went to the home OF
Walter Glascoe, In French street near
Fourteenth. to serve him with warrant
alleging non-support, he did not get his
man. Glascoe fell over on the couch
where he had been resting. and when
the family found him he was dead
DR.. Mitchell Greenwood was summoned
and said the man had died OF heart dis
ease. Whether the knowledge that the
warrant was issued for him worried him
ana caused his death Is not known.
G!ascoe was a comparatively young
man, but had not been well Tor some
time, lie was we'll known as a volunteer
hreman. 1t is probable that Coroner
spring will hold an investigation.

Far away is the sun,
And our play is now done:
All the day we've had fun; dear,
Good night.
Good night, little man. good night,
Good night, little man, good night;
You must never once peep,
And you'll soon be in sleep
Safe and quiet and deep; dear,
Good night.
Good night, little man, good night,

Just another big kiss,
And the light you won't miss;
Then a last one like this; dear,
Good night.

fine spring day a gardener
| J picked up a shovelful of Jap
anese sunhower roots.

plCKeQ up a SnOVelIul OF Jap
anese sunhower roots.
"Where do these go?" he asked.
ooh, let me see," said the other
gardener, I'VE can put those here in
front of the hedge and behind the
golden rod-that's just the place for
them"
So the sunhowers were planted.
Now the hedge grew very high and
very thick, SO that no sun shonc
through it at all
And the golden rod grew very fast
and very tall and the poor little sun
flower roots down in between didn't
have any chance at all
They spread out roots and sent up
green stalks and leaves, but they
couldn't get enough sun.
Finally, one day, the sunfower re-
solved to ask the sun about it.
"Oh, Mr.. Sum-" she called, what
is the matter; why don't you shine
on me all day as you used to in the
spring."
