but preserved always. quiet, digni-
fed restraint.
/ The first witness today was ex-
pected to be Celia Coleman, the col
ored maid In the Carman home, or
Frank Farrell, a tramp, who has been
housed by the state since early In
July az q witness. The Coleman girl
is looked to to provide the most SEN
sational testimony of the trial. She
is admittedly the states strongest
card and Is prepared to swear that
Mrs. Carman passed through the
kitchen both before and Immediately
after the shooting and appealed to
have something concealed under her
left arm In addition, the colored girl
has declared Mrs. Carman told her
she must say nothing Of having seen
her below stairs and there are hints
that the maid may make even more
startling statements.
Through Colder and Post, the
states own witnesses, the defense
has largely discounted the testimony
Farrell may give. Both Of these wit
nesses swore that they went out of
the house Immediately after hearing
the shot The yard of the Carman
home was well lighted by the street
lamps. They looked In all directions.
but saw no one. Farrell has asserted
he was standing In the yard and saw
woman approach the window Of DIR,
Carman's office, hre the shot and
| then disappear around the rear Of the
house. Farrell's description Of this
woman Tailed with that of Mrs. Car
man.
| The announcement by the physi
clans that they discovered Mrs. Bail
ley would have become mother
| served as the only explanation OF hel
visit to DR.. Carman's office. Mrs
Bailey's husband testified that she
was in good health. None OF the mem
| bers of her family knew of her inten
ton to see physician the afternoon
she left home to call in Rockville
/ Center.
| Possibly Dr. Carman had Just told
her Of her condition before the shot
was fired which ended her life. At the
coroner's inquest, Dr.. Carman testif
ed he merely prescribed simple rem
edy for malaria for Mrs. Bailey.
There Is no direct evidence tina,
4 Mrs. Carman was listening over hel
photograph while Mrs. Bailey was II
her husbands Office. There is only
the assumption drawn by the defense
that since the accused woman rented
the instrument for the purpose of lis
ttenine to conversations between hel
| husband and women patients, thai
she heard what passed between DR.
/ Carman and Mrs. Bailey. II Mrs
Carman did hear, the secret 10 locked
up forever.

noon today.

FLOWERS IN THE HOUSE
BY FRANCES MARSHALL.

We cannot all OF us AFFORD to have
fresh-cut flowers In the house every
day or so. But we can all of us AFFORD
to have some fresh, growing plant In
the house, and we can all OF US we'll
afford to learn to care for cut flowers
when We do have them.
TO begin with. when you buy cut
flowers. buy them of Il reputable for
list, one who will give you freshly
picked flowers. When you get them
put them In IL vase full OF fresh water
after you have cut each stem of a
quarter OF an inch-just far enough 70
reach fresh part of the stem. Only
put few flowers in each vase-not
enough. to crowd each other. Change
the water each day and clip the stems
whenever YOU change the water. If
the room where the flowers are stand
ing Is warm ut night, remove the How
ers 10 cooler place. Trented in this
way, cut flowers. provided they are
fresh when they arc bought, ought to
keep for five or six days.
Growing Plants.
Growing plants give almost as much
satisfaction as cut flowers, and arc
certainly much less expensive than
even n few cut flowers once Il week.
Geranums are the most easily grown
or flowers. excepting perhaps, prim-
roses Both OF these plants. II they
arc given plenty OF sunshine. reg
ular daily drink of water and good
soil to begin with. will stand a long
winter we'll. Most Towering plants
are so susceptible to the ever-chung-
Ing temperatures OF most OF our liv-
Ing rooms that they need tho utmost
care If they are kept alive.
Ivy and Ferns.
Ivy can be grown In the house by
any one. II does not even need sun
OF course, it needs Il certain amount OF
air and regular drinks OF water. Civ
en- these, IL thrives.
Ferns, too. can be successfully grown
by almost every woman who has Il
love for growing things. Usually the
women who have no luck with flowers
and plants are those who do not care
enough for them to take trouble with
them. Ferns, OF course. must be reg
ularly watered and although they
should not be put in the sun they
should stand where they get plenty
OF fresh air.

New Indian Animal Stories
The Story of the Sun and The Moon
ny John III. o.kisoa.

Long time ago whom the people and
the animals and the birds all lived to-
gether as one people and could talk
TO each other, II Was the quail who
became tho messenger for tho rest to
tho Land OF the Darkening SKY. be-
yond the door of the sunset, where
the Thunder Boys lived. Sometimes.
when the quail came back from that
land. she would call the others to-
gethcr and tell them story she had
heard from the Thunder Boys.
One OF the stories which tho quail
brought back was about why tho sun
and the moon arc strangers to each
other at this time.
In the beginning ESQ the quail told
tho story. while all the animals and
birds and insects and people sat still
and listened) the sun was a fno young
woman VINO lived in the East 1t was
she that everybody saw getting up In
the morning. over in the West lived
her brother; and IL was he everybody

Beside these two. there lived In an
other part Of the sky q young man
who was the moon. and this young
man fell In love with the beautiful
young woman who WAS the Gun In the
East And on those nights when there

1t was known that the man was on u
visit to the young woman he loved
Always this young man came to visit
the young woman after dark. and he
would always sit with his back TO the
fire so that she could not sec his face
and sitting like this, he would talk to
the beautiful young woman.
