TROPICAL PLANTS FOR
 INDOOR WINTER GARDEN

Washington, Dec. S.-with a little care, a, number of tropical plants may be grown indoors and during the win ter they are particularly attractive addition to a bay window or conser- vatory garden Various kinds of palms, rubber plants, oleanders, as pidistras and cactt are easily kept in, good condition indoors if given the proper attention and not permitted to be exposed to frost, according to the Department of Agriculture's horticu1- turists.
 Palms are much used for inter- for decorations where there is no di- rect sunlight. Regular watering is overwater. It is better with most palms to keep them little dry than too wet Where 8 pot is in a jar diniere especial care must be exer- cised not to have them too wet.
 While small, wash the foliage oc- castonally with soap studs made from a good soap. Immediately follow with a thorough rinsing. When too large for this, spray the tops fre- quent1y with clear water.
 Browning at the tips usually comes from trouble at the roots:e First, overwatering; second, worms on the roots; third, lack of plant food. The first is the trouble in nearly every case. The worm that gave the trou- b1s is not the ordinary earth worm. DS1C a little white harmless 1OOk1ug creature that emerges into the air as a small fly. Dissolve a piecesof quick lime as big as a tea cup in three gal 1 Ions of water After it is through sputtering and the milky mixture has cleared, pour off the clear part and soak your soil with it. Do not dilute for the soaking should be thorough To provide plant food, stir small quantities of bone meal and wood ash es into the surface or in place of or dinary watering occasionally use ma nure water or ammonia water Ca tea spoonful of ammonia to quart o1 | water). Trim off the brown tips, as they will never recover If the leaves turn yellow, look for scale on the un- der side and be sure you are not over watering. Wash the scale off or spray I.wtth kerosene emulS pzs Wha1e-o soap, or some nicotine preparation

light without direct sunlight. Wa ter often enough to keep the soil moist, but do not under any circuna- stances permit the water to stand about the roots nor allow 1t to be- come s'bone dry" A potted plant set in g jardiniere needs especial care not to overwater.
 Wash the foliage frequently with soap suds made from good soap. Rinse thoroughly at once.
 Report occasionally as the pots be- come full of roots. Feed once in tive to four weeks with dilute nitrate of lsoda Ga heaping teaspoonfuI 5disso1v- ed in water) or ammonia water or manure water as described for the palm or. some prepared plant food
 5Oleanders may be treated more or less as are palms.
 Aspidistras are most ornamental. They should be kept rather drfer than pam sand rubber plants.
 Cacti require rather dry sandy soil.

But before the crier had got out half the Emden particulars his voice was drowned in a storm of cheering. Ten million dollars is the estimated value of British shipping lost by the Emden's activities in the Indian Ocean during the past three months. Nevertheless it is the universal hope that Capt. Muller has survived the loss of the ship which he so gallantly, commanded. Indeed his health was drunk at more than one club lunch con table to-day.s

A Belgian officer now in London tells the following story of his exper- fence among German wounded:
 tsI noticed that every second or third German soldier in one, of the hospitals where I was confined be- fore T got away via. Holland suffered from deep wounds in the back gof the head, and made inquiries as to their natures since they could not have been made by either bullets or splin- ters or swerds-
 These wounds, was told, are made by steel tipped gloves worn by German army officers. The tips are about half an inch long and as sharp as needles. When a man turns to re- treat or seeks to hide from bullets the nearest officer deals him a blow behind the ears. Sometimes the behind. and the pain is simply mad denfng- One blow sufices to send a man back to the firing line, but of cousre if they have the chance they bayonet or shoot the officer in return The steel tipped glove as an in etrument of war is on a par with the cans of paFafiiSe and the boxes of wax matches in the German marauders' equipment The paramne Is of course intended to fire houses, and it was plentifully employed wherever the Prussians penetrated, as the world knows,
 The news of the destruction of the Emden was rung out at L1oyd's A stroke on the .Iutine" bell is always a preliminary to an announcement of importance to unwerwriters. There was the usual hush when the s.Lutine,' was sounded, for 1t usually means that news of a serious casualty is to be e1ven to underwriters with out de-

Go to the other side; what have you In
that bag?" When. as he said this. his
guests evnced an inclination TO press for
ward he threw out his arms on either
side OF him and positively shouted;
own you not keep back? If you will
keen back. everything shall be done in
order before you all | ask YOU only to be
n little sensible. If there is so much con
FUSION we shall not know what we are
doing I bes of you that YOU will be
calm"
n they we're not precisely calm, the
people did show some SLIGHT inclination
to behave with an approach TO common
sense. They permitted tine bag to be placed
on the table, and the manager to open 1t,
having first put some questions to the
young man who brought it in.
where did you find this bag"
TN her room" was the her" which
he made clear by pointing his finger
straight at me.
"Was any one else present in the room
Mt the time you found It? Did you find
anything else?'
There were three other persons pres
cnt in the room. That bag was the first
| thing 7 touched. When I opened It and
saw what was inside, I thought that for
| the present, that would be enough. I
think you also will he Of my opinion
when you sec what it contains.'
Then the manager opened the bag. He
| looked inside, then he turned 1t upside
down and allowed the whole contents to
| fall out on to the table. OF all the eX
! traordinary collections. I believe there
were articles belonging to every person
| in the hotel When YOU came to think
Of It, It was amazing how they had been
! gathered together-in what could only
| have been n short space of time-wthout
the gatherer being detected. SAs for the
| behavior Of the guests Of the hotel 1t was
like Bedlam broken loose They pressed
| forward all together, calculating. ex-
| claiming. snatchinE at this and that. a
each saw some personal belonging.
Keep back! Keep back" shouted the
manager. will YOU not keep back?" AS
| he positively roared at them they did
shrink back as If a trihe startled IF
YOU will only have a little patience each
lady shall have what belongs to her-if it
is here"
Mrs Anstruther's voice was heard
above the hubbub: Are my diamonds
| there?" Then Mrs. Newhalls: And my
pearls?"
The undcr-strapper was examining the
| miscellaneous collection which my bag
had contained with all those women
breaking into continual EXPLANATIONS
| watching him with hungry eyes. He an
nounced the result of his examination.
NO Mrs Anstruther's diamonds do
| not appear to he here. nor Mrs. NcUhall <
pearls: there is nothing here which at all
resembles them"
The manager held out toward me a
minatory finger; every one seemed to
| have developed a sudden mania for point
| ing particularly at me.

halls pearls and Mrs. Austruthers dia-
monds? Better make n clean breast Of
