On Caring for a Fern

My dear Miss Doom:
| have received a beautiful fern
from a dear friend and would like
to know just how to care for 1T.
have had ferns before, but
haven't had the good fortune to
keep them. / am anxious to raise
this one. Thanking you in advance,
A CONSTANT READER.
The best place for a Boston fern
is in an east window, where the
morning sun reaches it for a little
while.
Leaf mold. sand and good loan
form the best soil for its growth.
Let the pot be big enough, but
not too big, or the plant will all go
to roots.
If it is desired to force the growth
at any time, use teaspoon of am
monia in a quart of water once a
week.
Keep the pot in a plate or saucer
and let there be two inches of small
stones or charcoal in the bottom of
the pot to insure good drainage.
Then there will be no harm in
allowing water to remain in the
saucer.
At least once a week place the pot
in the bathtub and give the plant
a thorough shower bath, soaking it
well. Once in while give it tea or
coffee, which will keep the white
worms away. Never expose the
plant to a cold draught, but, on the
other hand it will not thrive in
close. ill-ventllated room.
DO not let it stand in the sun
when the leaves are wet, as they
will turn brown.
Ashes from tobacco is excellent If
put on the top soil once in a while
to prevent the appearance of mites.
When reporting see that there are
no eathworms taken up.

DIARY OF WELL DRESSED GIRL

the long sleeves and bodice. and
when you are shopping look around
for q material which is suitable for
the little vest and the ribbon which
binds the peplum.'
l found that tinsel brocades are
combined with laces and nets In
many of the new waists, SO | bought
a quarter of yard of blue and sill
yer brocade for my vest, and a silver
ribbon to bind the waist, and tie in
a loose bow at the back. A tiny sil-
yer ribbon now holds the chiffon col
lar at the neck and binds the wrists.
Little buttons of blue and rhinestone
extend down the front.
As l was looking about through the
shops for suggestions l saw one
stunning blouse made of gold and
green brocaded crepe. There was a
tiny vest with revers, deep cuffs and
a rolling collar made of white Geor-
gette crepe.
Another blouse had very elaborate
net sleeves. They were tucked and
pulled over their entire length, and
hung in quite a baggy fashion over
the elbowsN A wistaria faille silk
formed the body of the blouse. and
two silk revers which fell away from
q glimpse of net vestee were am
broidered In blue and silver threads
and dark green beads.
The new waists seem akin to patch
work quilts, for they are made of a
great variety of different colors and
materials.

Experiences of Young Actress

In the November Woman's Home
Companion Alice Brady, the young
daughter of William A. Brady, the
celebrated theatrical manager-and
herself talented young actress
writes an entertaining little article
entitled youth and the Stage" in
which she shows how there is no
road to success except the road or
hard work She then tells the follow
ing story of her own personal expert
ences, concluding with an account OF
her fathers criticisms of her work
at was born in me to act. MY
mother. was a famous dancer IN her
time, and | consider that my father,
William A. Brady, is one Oh the
greatest stage directors in this coun-
try. He sent me to a convent, ana L
was permitted to go to the theatre
only during Christmas and Easter
HOLIDAYS. But that convent was for
me a little stage, and all the good
sisters. all my classmates, too, mere
ly players.
But when | was ready to enter
the profession, neither my birthright
nor my fathers position could protect
me from serving the apprenticeship
which every actress must serve some
time. ! have played one-night stands
from coast to coast, made train con-
'nections at and o'clock in the
morning, slept in chair cars and eaten
impossible food, And my father has
been my hardest critic.
IT recall when We were rehearsing
Little Women and l thought I was
making Meg very sweet and tender
indeed. Father took me to one side
during breathing spell and
stor'ned at me thus: See here, Alice,
you're not 1918 girl simpering
through pink tea. You are an old
fashioned 1866 girl with soul!' Many
a. time he has watched me from a
box and would send word back be-
tween the acts that he had never
seen anything worse. That is what
it means to have. a father-man-
ager.'

While Dorothy and Mary Eliza
beth and Davie and Billy were
playing war down at the brook what
do you thing baby Buster Dear was
doing?
We haven't talked much about
Buster lately, have we?
Buster is a pretty big baby now,
too big, really, to be called a baby,
for he's nearly three years old.
He's beginning to have opinions
of his own, and very clear ideas as
to the things he likes to eat and the
games he likes to play.
Every night he takes his big
brown Teddy bear to bed with him,
and they talk until the Sand Man
throws his sleepy-dust in baby Bus
ter's eyes and in Teddy's eyes, too,
and they drift away to the land of
Nod.
never heard Teddy bear talk, but
am sure that he must, because l
hear Buster ask him questions.
Then Buster waits, and pretty soon
I hear him answering something
that Teddy must have said. So
there you are.
Just now baby Busters favorite
game is what he calls "choo-choo
tar" and he plays it all by himself
with his blocks, making trains that
stretch half way across the library
floor. and calling to mother Dear to
notice what big, fine trains they are.
That's a spl-lendid train" moth
er Dear declares with enthusiasm,
and baby Buster smiles and smiles
until his blue eyes narrow to merry
little Sits and every one of his
white, even teeth twinkle in the
most fetching fashion.
At this, point mother Dear is very
apt to drop her book or her sewing
and rush across the room, dropping
bear hug. declaring that he's the
sweetest, dearest, darlingest baby
in the whole wide world.
But then, all mothers are like that,
aren't they?
On this particular Saturday after
noon, however, when Dorothy and
Mary Elizabeth and Davie and Billy
were playing war down at the
brook, Buster was not playing
"choo-choo tar" with his blocks.
He was standing with his fat,
little hands clasped behind his
back, watching Dickie, mother
Dear's canary bird.
Dickie was quite the tamest canary
bird in the world. Every morning
his cage door was opened and he was
permitted to fly all about the
library while Norah cleaned his
cage.
Baby Buster was always fasci
mated by the sight Of him, and fol-
lowed him all about, always with
his hands clasped behind his back,
for mother Dear had explained that
Dickie would be frightened if baby
