outside the exterior wall. and the same
space within the room. The latter is used
by various kinds of built-in furniture,
such as divan or large. comfortable
seat. 1t folds up to a very small compass
when the bed is made up for the night
and requires very little time or effort.
The bed is on rollers. SO that il can be
swung clear inside the room when de-
sired. and this Is a convenience when
making the bed. The design of the swing
ing canopy is such that very slight
pressure will move it to any desired po-
sition. Thus il may be left over the
couch. giving through draft between
the bed and the outside which. is desir-
able in extremely hot weather. Or by
swinging the canopy clear, into the room
the bed is left outdoors. so that the de-
lights Of camping out may be INDUCED in
while in town. Or, if the weather is dis
agreeable. the bed may be used with the
canopy swung outside. shutting out the
rain and wind entirely.

LANSING BURROWS
CRITICISM ON LITERATURE
PRESIDENT SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION
SCATFIING DENUNCIAT-ION BOOKS, MAGAZINES
NEWSPAPERS

Nashville, Tenn. May 17.-Pres-
ent day literature and drama were
bitterly denounced yesterday by Dr.
Lansing Burrows, of Americas, Ca.
in an address before the Southern
Baptist convention, of which he is
president. The occasion was a re-
Spouse to the presentation of the
Sunday school board building to the
convention.
What God, the creator of mind
and inspirer of thought has intend
ed to make men wise unto salvation
thru faith which is in Jesus Christ -
Mr.. Burrows declared, 1.-The arch
enemy has seized with which they
may be lured to destruction. Having
a delirious interest in reading, we
are all the hateful dogmas of relig-
ious, social and political heresy
propagated. Socialism as presented
by one of its leaders, puts nine
/, tenths of its income into literature,
choosing the Sabbath day for its dis
tribution into the homes of the peo-
pie. The adherents of an historical
substitute for soul-saving in the
guise of body healing publish a
daily journal OF no mean proper
lions. The cult of libidinous present
thru innumerable cheap magazines
attractive pictures of undraped
forms and even the advertisements
, reveal women in corsets and men in
underclothes. And Gods people fill
! their center tables, around which
gather their unsuspecting children
with these seductive influences. AS
one of our own cherished leaders has
/ expressed it, the weakest place in
our UNCONVENTIONAL life is that oc-
casioned by our lack Of making ade-
quate provision Of supply the masses
of the people with the right kind OF
literature
i And now We stand before the
door of opportunity. The indomi-
table industry of the destroyer OF
! human souls adapts his energies tc
! shifting conditions. HIS most auiac-
! ious attack IS now upon the litera-
ture of thesage. The three past gen
erations have cultivated the reading
habit. Men have grown story-mad
and dramatically insane. The novel
| ist and the dramatist have the
strongest influence upon the present
generation. They bring no glad It'd
| ings for its inspiration to nobler
| things They are men with micro
! scopes fastened upon social bacteria
and never upon the glinting stars.
When, with the incisiyenesss OF
their practiced pens they have de-
stroyed a microbe, they have de-
stroyed the healthy tissue upon
which it had fastened. They are
! like a foolish man who burns his
stable to be rid OF the feas. They
defend their atrocities By the plea
that they are describing life as it is.
They do not; they show us the rot
ten cancers of life. They make the
great city the theater OF life. They
present to Us the vast metropolis Of
New York with its great white way
blatant with its vulgar extravaganza
es, reeking with the odious smells
OF its sensuality. aroar with the
shouts of its chorus girls and its sod
den spendthrifts, homeless. Christ

hearted worshiper OF mammon and OF
lust, and they tell Us this is life.

Marking Children's Garments.

One can buy in the various stores ini-
tials by the yard worked in red or blue
outline stitch on narrow strips OF linen
tape three-eighths or a half-inch wide.
These letters are used for marking
plain underclothing, etc. They are OF
great use to the mother with a large
family who has neither money nor time
to spare on embroidery and who finds
it necessary to have some distinguishing
mark on the clothing, especially when
there are two children the same size
The letters are cut or from the strip
when needed. and overcast on the inside
of the garment, any place where it will
be invisible when worn.
When this system is used, even stock
ings are easily paired. Sew each chiId's
initial at the top on the stocking on the
inside; then put a cross-stitch in red
under the first pair. use a blue cross
stitch on the second, yellow on the third,
etc.
1t is an easy matter to sort even a
large pile OF stockings; two Ms with
red crosses, a pair OF Mary's stockings;
two Ms with green crosses, another pair;
while two Us with blue crosses are q
pair Of stockings belonging to Jack.

Care of House Plants.

Plants in dark places require much less
water than those placed in full sunlight.
II the earth is kept moist. with no sun
to dry IT, 1t will become sour. which is
fatal. Plants in steam-heated rooms re-
quire water each day.
The amount Of water needed also de-
pends much on the size OF the pot. A
plant in a small pot may be watered
every day, while the same plant in a
larger pot would require water only twice
a week
A good test is to tap the pot with
your knuckles. II dry, it will give hol-
low sound. Never allow stagnant water
to remain In a jardiniere.
Plants breathe, so do not allow dust
10 close up their pores. Never wipe the
leaves with an oily cloth, as this only
clogs up the pores and makes them
harder to clean.
Wash the leaves with clear water.
Ferns and nonnowering plants will be
greatly benefited by placing in the bath
tub once or twice a week, with water
almost covering the pot, and allowing
to remain thus all night
All Towering plants should be watered
as soon as they arrive from the florist
winter-blooming plants should never be
allowed to become dry, as they are very
susceptible to draughts and lack Of
water.
When buying Towering, plants. select
those in bud rather than full bloom.
They not only last longer. but adapt
themselves more quickly to changed sur
roundings.
Flowering plants must have a sunny
location until in bloom, then they must
be placed in the light without the sun.

FAMOUS
WOMAN
Her
Birthday
And
Yours
October 3o-EIizabeth Brighton, Ade-
laide Proctor.

Mrs. Elizabeth Brighton bears the dig
tlnction Of being a successful writer who
did not begin to write till she was past
sixty years OF age. She was born IN
England October 30, 1890 and was
brought up in the home OF a childless
uncle. She had little regular education,
but from the earliest years Of her child
hood she was absorbingiy interested in
natural history. At twenty-five she mar
ried a banker Of London. Then follow
ed many years OF invalidlsm- during
which she was deprived Of friends, books
and nature On the death of her hus-
band she was left, childless, in the pos
session of a beautiful secluded estate.
Here there was an extensive woods,
lake and a wonderful garden and shrub
berry and amid these surroundings Mrs.
Brighton's interest In nature was re-
vived and she spent her days in the
closest study OF plant and insect life. For
several years she made notes OF her
studies and then when she was over sixty
years old she put these notes into book
form and published this under the title
wild Nature Won by Kindness" This
book and several similar books that fol-
lowed IL were immensely popular and
proved that a woman at sixty is not too
old to begin her literary career.
Another famous woman born on Oc-
tober % Is Adelaide Proctor, the English
woman who wrote the hymn, The
Shadows of the Evening Hour" Another
distinguished English woman born on
October % was Jane Hopkins. born in
1896, a social reformer whose work
among outcast men was truly remark
able.
Charlotta Patti. the sister OF the more
celebrated Adeline Patti. was born in
Italy, October 90, 1885. Because OF
slight lameness she never went on the
operatic stage. but confined her singing
to concert work. Her greatest deficiency
was in lack Of sympathy and this lack
prevented her really remarkable voice
from equalling that OF her sisters.
An American woman Of distinction born
on October 30 is the writer, Gertrude
Atherton. Mrs Atherton has been de-
scribed as lone OF the most vivid and
entertaining interpreters of the complex
characteristics OF American woman
hood"
