Plant Your Peonies in the Fall

In the September Woman's Home
Companion a contributor writes an
interesting practical article entitled
THE Good old-Fashioned Peony."
The suggestions which the author
has to make are prefaced by the
statement that when any garden
flower becomes so important as to
justify a national society for its pro-
paganda there must be something in
it. 1t is a significant fact that the
American Peony Society is one of the
largest and strongest OF such asso-
Citations in orr country. The peony
is an. exceedingly popular plant and
one of the hardest in all the garden
almost entirely free from every at
tack of insect or plant disease. 1t
will grow in any good garden soil
and requires no special care. Fol-
lowing is an extract from the article:
mended for peonies. and is much
to be preferred above spring plant
ing, since the buds start SO early in
spring that Ii is practically impossi
bic to get them set in time unless
one buys plants from a reliable cold
storage. Many OF the hest gardeners
however. always transplant their
peony crowns in late summer, tho
last week in August. or the first
week in September. At this time the
plants are perfectly dormant, hav-
ing completed their years growth,
and the transplanting is less of a
shock than at any other time

THE BODY ORDINARILY LOOKS AS OIL
AS THE MIND THINKS AND FEELS

In the September Woman's Home
Companion Ralph Waldo Urine, writ
ing an article entitled what Is
Youth ?-What After YOUTH" writes
in part as follows:
"a very general rule with but few
exceptions can be laid down as fol-
lows: The body ordinarily looks as
old as the mind thinks and feels.
Shakespeare anticipated by many
years the best psychology of the
times when he said: 1T is the mind
that makes the body rich An emil
nent modern writer has given utter
ance to the same truth more fully
and more helpfully, perhaps. in the
following: 1.-THE prevailing state of
mind, or character of thought, shapes
the body and features. 1t makes us
ugly or pleasing, attractive or re-
pulsive to others. Our thought
shapes our gestures, our mannerism,
our walk. The least movement of
muscle has mood of mind, a
thought, behind it, A mind always
determined, has always a determined
walk A mind always weak, shifting,
vacillating and uncertain, makes
shutting, shambling. uncertain gait.
The spirit of determination braces
every muscle. 1t Is the thought-ele-
ment of determination filling every
muscle If you send from you
in thought the elements of worry,
fret, hatred or grief, you are putting
in action forces injurious to your

A Cure for Tattling

A mother who was very much
grieved over her little daughters
habit of talebearlng, at last adopted
a sensible way of dealing with ii.
She had tried various punishments,
and had found out that she could
not make the child see how disagree
able the habit was, so she turned di-
rectly about and sy1npathized with
the little girl every time she came
with dismal tale of woe.
Mother is very sorry the children
are so naughty" she said with kisses
and comfort in the way of sugar
Jumps. You must not play with
Mary again. do not want her to be
rude and unkind to my good little
daughter says the Mothers Maya
zine.
In a very short time the little girls
circle of playmates narrowed down
to herself, and she soon grew weary
of playing alone. She coaxed and
begged of her mother to let her play
with the other children, only to hear
the same words from the mother,
"They are too rude and unlxind for
my little girl to play with"
It did not take very long for the
child to think it all over and one day
she confessed with a burst of peni-
tent tears that she was more TO blame
than the others. Then the mother
tenderly explained the evils of tat
Ting and always making ones self
out innocent while the others We're
always in the wrong. The penitent
little sinner in her arms was tired
of being the only good" child in the
neighborhood, and the little lesson
brought forth good f9uits.

Regular exercise is necessity. A
good many women will tell you that
they get plenty of exercise doing
homework, and are all worn out when
they finish the days toll. Yet even
those who think themselves overtaxed
are usually not really fatigued, al
though they may suffer from over
strain of certain muscles. What they
mistake for fatigue is lassitude. What
they lack is muscle tone. Instead of a
lot of self -commiseration and an hour
on the sofa with a novel, they need a
dash of cold water and half an hour
Of brisk systematic exercise regularly
to keep the eyes bright, the color good
and the muscular and nervous system
in tone.
Another class of women run to vio-
lent exercise all summer and entirely
neglect to exercise in the cooler
weather, says The Mothers Magazine
Then they do not understand why
they begin to feel languid and chron-
ically tired. The simple fact is that
their blood lacks the oxygen which
their summer exercise infused into it.,

Now Candy's Going Up

Young men who seek TO create a
good impression in the minds of their
sweethearts by means of the indis-
pensable box of candy. will pay con-
siderably more for their sweets. il
sugar continues at it's high level or
advances still further. for candy is
going up, says an exchange.
Already candies on which small
margin of profit is made have adj
vaneed, and candy manufacturers.
with sugar at eight and one-half
cents a pound, will be compelled to
make advances on all grades, which
will amount in some cases as high as
fifty per cent. The increasing prices
of essential oils and nut meats will
also help to force the price of candy
up.
The price of ice cream may also BIO
forced upward, although it is under
stood that ice cream manufacturers
contemplate no immediate increase,
and most of them laid in supply OF
sugar before it started to soar.

The cause of the conversation was
Nipper, the fat little puppy Of which

The paper would lie still, and with
series of excited yaps Npper
would start after it. and then just
when it was almost within his reach
gay little breeze would carry it
just beyond his reach.
Then Nipper would zap harder
than ever. while Laddle watched
lazily.

"Gettin' purity dignihed. he is"

over.

But once on, all his tiredness left
him; his vigor returned; his feet re-

within the boy as he thought of the

Preparations for a Wedding

Dear Miss Doom:
| will be very thankful if you will
help me. As ] am to be married at
my home in November, would it be
proper to have my wedding dress

l have to wear gloves-white kid or
silk?
May I wear a lace cap without

Can the bride-to-be write the ad-
dresses on the invitations? At a
Sunday wedding, about o'clock in
the evening, what sort of suits
would the brides father and
brother wear? What does the
father do in giving the daughter
away? How long after the supper
can the bride and bridegroom re-
main, if they are going away?
MISS NJ. D.
Nowadays bride uses her own
judgment in the matter of q we'd

necks are Worn. with short sleeves
and long white kid gloves. White
slippers and stockings should also
be worn. Wear the lace cap if YOU
like. 1t would be quite proper, but
not half as effective as a veil. Two
yards and half OF tulle will be
suficient to drape gracefully to the
end OF the train of the gown.
The exchanging of presents be-
tween bride and bridegroom and
the gift of remembrance to the at
tendants are customary. though not
obligatory.
A O'Clock wedding requires that
men shall wear dress suits. II the

they would not BE- correct.
Here is the form of entrance for
a bridal party: The ushers. two

the ceremony is to be performed,

bride, in readiness TO assist her by
holding her bouquet. glove when
it is removed, etc. and arranging
her veil gracefully when she turns
at the end of the ceremony.
The bridegroom, who has been
waiting. receives the bride from her
father and leads her forward to
where the clergyman stands.
The brides father stands back of
the bridal pair. When the clergy

Keeping Carrots

1T is not difficult to keep carrots
for the winter.
Last year We tried with success
what was to us new way of keep
ing for winter use the carrots which
remained in the garden when frost
came. We put layer of earth an
inch thick in the bottom of a box,
which we placed in the cellar and
filled with the carrots, from which
the tops had been removed. After
they were all in We covered them
thiclSly with the carrot foliage,
which is so light and feathery that
it does not entirely prevent the
evaporation of moisture, yet is suf-
ficiently dense to prevent it to such
a degree that the carrots keep solid
and unwilted until late into winter.
Storing them in this way does
away with the necessity of filling
the spaces between the carrots with
earth or sand to prevent drying out,
and, therefore, can be done in a
shorter time and with a small
amount of labor Even as an ex-
pertinent it is well worth trying
Can the readers give further sug-
gestions?
