CADILLAC AGENT IN CAPE.
Leroy Jones VIII Show His Big Auto
Here After Trip From st. Louis.

Leroy Jones of the Cadillac Auto
Co. of st. Louis, arrived in the Cape
yesterday afternoon, and will spend
the next two days here showing the
Cadillac Eight" Mr.. Jones came
via auto from st. Louis, and although
the roads in some places were termed
impossible, the big Cadillac came
through with perfect ease.
The fact that the Cadillac "Eight"
has surplus power at most any stage,
is not its strongest feature. But be-
cause of its fexibility most any wOm-
an can drive it without scarcely shift
ing a gear, which makes the operation
simple.
Mr.. Jones claims that women who
have tried to drive other cars and
failed, have learned to drive the Cadil-
lac in a few minutes.

Pate de Fole oras.

pate de foie gras" is French dish
made of goose liver and served by
Irish walters, aim" writes in Car
toons Magazine. You will find it men
toned on the menu of almost every
fashionable hotel and restaurant. If
1t is ever your good luck to eat in
a place where they have patty-de-what-
yOu-may-call-it on the bill Of fare,
don't display your bad bringing up by
calling for it. 1t will save the waiter
the humiliation of explaining how it
happened that they are just out of it
and how a cargo on its way was over
taken and sunk by a German subma-
rine. Pate de foie gras is a standard
filler which is kept in type form to
give the place a swell air. Don't ever
attempt to pronounce the dish aloud
in public, because it isn't what it
spells. Let the Irish waiter pronounce
it for you, then you'll make no mis-
take. In ordering, point to it with
your finger, preferably the one with
the big diamond ring on it, and don't
forget that a generous tip should fol-
low at the conclusion of the service,
for the dignity Of pate de foie gras
should be sustained at all hazards!

custom Of his majesty to return by a
gracious gesture every greeting from
one who might pass his window, and
to rise In his place and formally salute
whenever a body of troops, however
small, passed by. The crown prince,
who was, after nearly a decade, to
come to the throne for a few short
weeks as Emperor Friedrich III, was
the very ideal of manly dignity and
beauty, and seemed TO incarnate in his
own person the attributes and tradi-
tIons Of royalty. His eldest son, now
and for more than a quarter Of cen
tury past the German emperor, was
an officer of the garrison. He was
frequently seen driving or riding about
the city, and came into familiar con-
verse with a considerable group OF
young men, among whom occasionally
an American student was included.

imperial trappings and ceremonies

it had never before had In the Amer

Water in Farm Homes.

Running water in the kitchen is a
hope that many farm women will see
realized this year. This is one of the
ways by which the "silent partners"
are removing drudgery from farm life.
Efficiency is the keynote of the day,
and the women have found that pack
ing water by hand is inefficient, when
for a small cost, the water can be
piped to faucets in their kitchens. A
simple system consisting of a pump
attached to the kitchen sink, with
pipes and connections, can be installed
for $1S. The next system, costing
about $35, consists of a force pump,
kitchen sink with waste pipe, and a
tank to which the water is pumped
and is ready for use at all times. An
other system supplying both hot and
cold water can be put In for about $40.
Other more elaborate systems with
bathroom outfits have been designed
for those who want greater comforts.

Hastily she called to Miranda to get

FALL PLANTING OF ROSES
BY PRISCILLA PAKE.

Fall planting Of roses may be done
In the latter part of october or early
in November, or even as late as the
middle Of December, with excellent re-
suits.
Roses planted In the fall, however,
should be set deep and banked well
with earth just before the ground
freezes. 1t is also well to cover the
soil about the plants with manure,
which should not be removed until the
middle of April, or until all danger
from a severe frost is over, whereupon
this dressing may be fOrked under.
When the rose plants are received
from the nuFeryman they should be
unpacked as soon as they come to
hand. Thereupon the tops and roots
should be well sprinkled with water,
after which they should be covered
with bagging and placed in a shaded
spot until ready to plant.
If the ground is not prepared when
the plants arrive, 1t Is advisable to nut
them in shallow trench and cover the
roots with loose soil until the ground
can be put into proper condition.
The enrichment Of the soil, however,
should not only be made at the time of
the preparation of the bed before plant
ing, but in the spring Of every year,
for with such attention a bountiful
supply Of flowers may be expected
every season.
When planting, spread the roots out
carefully and do not cross them or
crowd them. They should be placed
well below the surface Of the soil and
arranged, as far as possible, in their
natural position.
When the roots are covered the
earth should be firmly pressed down
upon them, particularly around the
stem. If manure is put In the bottom
Of the hole 1t should not be allowed to
come in contact with the roots.
After planting, the roses should be
well cut back to a few buds, freely wa
tered and protected for a few days if
the sun is strong. After that they will
have become thoroughly established.
If the ground is wet when the plants
are received 1t is better to postpone |
the planting, as the soil is liable to
become baked and the safety of the |
plants may be thus endangered
During a dry season the rose re- |
quires plenty Of water, and frequently |
soaking the bed with liquid manure
will be beneficial. The moisture may
also be conserved by abundant cultiva-
tlOn.
In the winter the roses should be
protected with a good mulch, which is
best done by covering the roots in De-
cember with coarse litter, or leaves, to
about six inches In depth, or they may

CLEMATIS A GOOD VINE.

Clematls, panniculata, is one Of OuI
most popular vines. 1t seems entire
ly free from disease and is unusually
hardy. It's foliage is attractive and
its small white blossoms which com,
pletely cover the vine make a glorious
spectacle over pOrches and pergolas.
One Of its chief attractions is that
1t does not come into bloom until
after all the other vines are faded and
yellow. 1t is a rapid grower.

Of good loan, well drained. Give it
