PLANTS FOR NORTH WINDOWS
BY BETTY PAkE.

To make boxes in windows with a
northern exposure attractive and
cheerful fill them with the following
plants:
For vines, plant either variegated
yincas or English ivy, or both inter-
mingled. Vincas are very bright, but
they will not survive exposure to
freezing temperature, while English
Ivy will stand unhurt all through the
winter. Either of these vines should
be planted about one foot apart. The
main part of the boxes can be planted
with begonias, which can be procured
from any florist in various colors,
white, pink, red. The boxes, If planted
wholly with material of uniform
height, are apt to have an artificial
appearance, to prevent which, plants
that grow taller and having a more
graceful habit should be placed, say,
one to every half dozen of the others,
and for this purpose few plants equal
dracaena terminals.
Pansies do fairly well in the shade,
and SO does saliva or scarlet sage. II
English ivey is used for vine, it will be
found to be of advantage in that when
the other plants in the boxes are
killed by frost the ivy remains and can
be left all winter, with the space taken
up by the other plants filed with
small evergreens.

THE FRONT YARD
BY E. VAN BENTHUYsEN,

The neatest yard now has a smooth
lawn grass sod kept closely mown,
while the flowers and shrubbery are
restricted to the sides and rear. This
not only renders the lawn more easily
kept than where there are flower
beds to NOW around and trim, or trees
or shrubs to dodge, but it is really
more restful in appearance.
If there is room for only one shrub,
let 1t be Hydrangea paniculata, the
magnificent tresses of bloom lasting
for weeks.

the will 1t fnsures larger blossoms and
more of them.
A liberal mulching with stable
manure is also in order. Roots may
be transplanted in either spring or
fall.
The Deutzias have extreme hardi-
ness, neat form, profusion of bloom
and early blossoms to commend them,
and are worthy of a place in any col
lection.

Among June blossoms none are
greater favorites than the syringa or
mock orange, the flowers being as
fragrant as beautiful. While the
shrub itself is perfectly hardy, late
frosts sometimes kill the buds; and

that there will be orange blossoms
when there will be peaches.

RED LIPS AND HEALTH

The first place that anemia, or thin blood, shows is in the lips and gums and the membranes that line the eye lids. You may be naturally pale and still be healthy but when these mem- branes lose their bright red color your blood is deficient in quantity or color-
 Thin blood is danger. It invites disease. The organisms of the blood fight off disease germs. Thin blood means less power to do this. For in- stance, when you cut yourself it does not heal so quickly if your blood is thin and weak.
 To build up the blood there is one remedy that has been a household word for generation, pr. Williams Pink Pills for Pale People. They tone up the entire system, make the blood rich and red, strengthen the nerves, in- crease the appetite, put color in the cheeks and lips and drive away that unnatural tired feeling. Plenty of sum- light, good wholesome food and fresh air will do the rest.

FAMOUS ACTRESS
 AT LYCEUM SAT.

May Irwin has been called the
 queen of Mirth," Empress Of Laughter High Priestess of Fun" ana a score of other things, since she sent the now famous letter to Presi- dent Wilson asking the esta blishment or a department of laughter She then made good by taking her entire con- pany to Washington at the invitation of the National Press club, and made the president and club mem bers rock in their seats with ill suppressed laughter.
 ? The play was 33 Washington Square and the same one in which she will be seen at the Lyceum Saturday, matinee and night. It is said to be unuues- tionably the best play Miss Irwin has ever had. It was dramatized from the novel by Leroy Scott and staged by William Collier, cO-WOrker with Miss Irwin in the days Of the famous Au- gustin Daly stock company.
 Miss Irwin is seen as Matilda, the faithful and resourcefu1 housekeeper Of the fashionable Mrs. DcPeyster of 33 Washington square. Mrs. DePey- ster has planned a European trip but owing to reverses finds on the eve of Ter departure that she will be unable to make the trip in proper style. That Ter friends may not know of her changed plans, she voluntarily be- comes T prisoner In her own mansion with only Matilda in possession of her secret. Numerous complications arise out of her concealment, but the ever ingenious Matilda extricates all from their difficulties after four acts of ludicrous situations and laugh provolz- ing dialogue.
 Miss Irwin will bring here the en- tire production and cast used in the premier of the piece in New York. In the company surrounding Miss Irwin will be seen Frances Gaunt, Marie Burke, Donald Meek, Harry Hanson, Joseph WCodburn, Zenida Williams, Belle BaIlistier Aldrich BOWker, George Clark, Frank J. Woods and William Sully.
 "33 Washington Square" is branded as a worthy successor to the many ge ms of American humor in which May Irwin has delighted audiences for the past several seasons.

AhAEMIC PEOPLE
Need Moro Iron in tho Blood.

If you are anaemic, you need more Iron in your blood, and the tell-tale symptoms are a pale face,-color- less lips, ashen finger nails, poor circulation. and short breath, and more serious diseases are easily con- tracted in this condition.
 MT. w. H. Hodges, of Kansas City. Mo-, Says:-"I suffered from the ef- fects of bad blood, was rundown. dizzy, had headaches and did not feel like working. I had tried Beef Iron and Wine without any help. After taking Vinol four days I mo- t1ced an improvement and it's con- tinued use built up my blood and my bad feelings disappeared like magic"
 The bad effects of poor, devitalized blood cannot be overestimated, and it is the beef and cod liver peptones, iron and manganese peptonates and glycerophosphates contained in Vinol that enriches the blood, improves the circulation and in this natural manner builds up health and strength Try 1t on our guarantee.

Uncles or Aunts

(Which do you like best?" I heard one youngster say to another the other day, "Uncles or aunts?''
 "Oh, uncles!'' said the other. 'They give you more pennies and don't try to make you do things"
 Does that awaken echoes from your childhood?
 It does from mine.
 Uncles and aunts, though they oc- cupy similar positions on the family tree, are as totally different in flavor as any two relationships could pos- sibly be.
 They Know They Could Bring You
 Up Better
 Aunts, as the youngster said. all ways wanted you to do things; they were such they could bring you up much better than your mother, and they fairly itched for chance. And with some queer sixth sense pos- sessed by childhood, you could feel them itching.
 Each aunt usually had some par ticular hobby. My memory of one severe old great-aunt Is entirely stunned up in one phrase, You love your mother and like your food.'' Every time said I loved ice-crean or candy, or new gingerbread, that descended upon me. Poor lady, she was old and dyspeptic, and I suppose my enthusiasm for the things she couldn't eat didn't particularly ap- peal to her.
 Another aunt used to say, Throw

Whereat I jerked my abdomen forward in a position that must have been a little less attract ice than my former slouch Forum ately l possessed still another aunt who enumerated this by saying, Keep your stomach in," every time she saw me.

 mats the difference between aunts ana uhcles. You may be grateful to aunts afterward, but you enjoy uncles more at the time
 The Spirit Of All Uncles Concentrated
 In One.
 Perhaps my own feeling towards uncles is tinged by the fact that I was particularly happy in mine. I only had one, but the spirit of all uncles was concentrated in him.
 Here comes Unkie!" was orx, that could make the dulles+ dav bright. He was always ready for romp or a game of some sort u;s pockets were full of those hard o1d fashioned peppermints. I buy them som etimes now, just for oldtime,s sake.
