WIFE HAD HER suspicious
Hubby's Compliment Evidently Made
Her Think There Was "Some-
thing in the Wind"

&c. J. NJ writes as follows to the
New York Sun:
Sir: This most beautiful morning l
arose early, went out on the veranda
and stood listening to the birds sing
ing, looking at the tulips and pansies,
the young leaves on the trees, the new
cut-lawns, and enjoying the floods Of
sunshine making all so restful. l felt
that it was good to live.
ION the breakfast-table l found my
favorite dishes daintily served. My
wife sat opposite me, herself picture
of lovely womanhood, l could not re-
frain from expressing my great pleas
ure and happiness.
Il said: This is most delightful
breakfast. and | have the best and
sweetest wife in all the world to share
it with me-
"Now, naturally, I expected sweet
smile of appreciation. Did l get 1t?
No! The 'bOoful lady half closed her
eyelids, looked at me steadily and
said: You be particularly careful to
come home this evening on your regu-
lar train
aren't women queer creatures?"

Wanted, an Elephant.

The Hasty Pudding club Of Harvard
was recently reported to be in some
distress because of the lack of two
sturdy actors capable of good team
work in playing the part of an ele-
plant in the clubs annual spring
show. The original selection for the
front legs was dismissed from college
on account Of low marks, and the hind
legs became discouraged and resigned.
Probably a peculiar combination Of
athletic skill and comic talent is re-
CURED for the proper representation
of a stage elephant, and it may be a
thankless task that college amateurs
in general are unwilling to tackle. An
actor disguised as one-half Of an ele-
plant seems to lose much of his indi-
viduality. But the fore and aft por-
ton of a quadruped offers q fine
chance for an ambitious young actor
to start a brilliant career. Henry e..
Dixey began his stage life as the hind
legs of the heifer in "Evangeline."-

IRIS

Take some strong clumps OF Iris,
about two or three years old and not
too large. Leave the earth on them
and take them up just before the
ground freezes and put them in large
pots in cool cellar. If they do freeze
it will not hurt them, but see that the
frost comes out gradually.
Bring them up to the light and put
them in a southern exposure and they
will flower during February and
March. If white ones are planted
beautiful Easter flowers will be pro-
vided. With care iris will bloom al
most half the year. The flowers grown
in the house are more delicate and
beautiful than if grown out OF doors.
Other winter flowers are expensive,
but these can be secured at little cost,
and when once started Oae can get
them from ones own garden.
Experiment with irises this fall; you
will get pleasure and profit from It.

GARDEN NOTES

Tulips increase by bullets which
issue from the side Of the larger
bulbs. Under certain conditions, too,
the larger bulbs split up into smaller
ones,
In, a well-drained, sunny bed the
bulbs will live and increase from year
to year, but should be lifted, divided
and reset every third year, as the
clumps become too much crowded to
thrive and bloom.
In potted lilies, set the bulbs two
inches or more beneath the soil. The
larger the pot, the larger will be the
plant.
Auratum, Speciosum, Longiform and
Rrownii are all suitable for pot cul'
ture.
After potting, water and set in
dark closet or cellar, keeping the soil
moist until roots form and the tops
start, when the roots may be brought
to a cool window, say in January or
February, If early started.

TROUBLE WITH ASTERS
BY GODFREY FRY.

The maggot is a deadly enemy Of
the aster. Look out for it and guard
against it. Work wood ashes into
the earth about the plants and remove
a little of the soil about the base of
each plant and scatter tobacco dust
literally around them.
Wood ashes are one Of the best rem
edies and change of location Of the
aster bed each year is another wise
move.
The black beetle is another pest
that does deadly work with the aster
plants. This pest comes suddenly and
does ruinous work in a very little
while. When you see the first beetle

BEAUTIFYING THE HOME
GROUNDS
BY L. Nj. BENNINGTON.

If you want your bed Of cannas or
border of caladiums to make q grand
showing from now to frost, give them
q fr0st-lke covering Of bonemeal; then
stir the soil, water thoroughly and
mulch with lawn clippings. Do this
toward the end Of this month and be
sure to remove the fading flowers.
Copy nature by sowing seeds OF
perennials as they ripen. Provide some
sort of shade for the seed bed. A
screen made of Hath or one OF un-
bleached muslin will answer.
The robust-groWing plants will need
some sort Of support. Let the supports
be painted green or oiled to bring out
the grain of the wood and you will
find them more pleasing than rough
sticks and far more satisfactory. Drive
the stakes fast into the earth q little
lower than the plants, so that they are
inconspicuous.
The plants needing supports are such
hardy perennials as delphiniumS,
giant foxglove and snapdragons. Do
not overlook giving stakes to the dah-
lias, cosmos, hydrangeas and gladl-
oil.
To maintain continuous blooming
from now until frost, a few perennialS
must be preserved. Make a habit of
cutting flowers freely and remove all
the fading blossoms and nature will re-
ward you with a lavish hand.
After this month, allow the chrysan-
themums to grow according to their
own will-that is, stop pinching them
back.
