INDOOR BLOSSOMS

A foretaste of spring may be had
by the nature-lover, while King Frost
reigns In the field and forest, If he
will force a few twigs to bloom in the
house.
Go into the garden, the orchard, the
forest, the hedges, and cut twigs a
foot or two long and sort them into
bouQuets-each sort separate. Place
in vases in water in sunny window.
A little charcoal added will help keep
the water sweet.
Change the water twice a week and
wash the cut ends in warm. soapy
water once a week. The vases should
be washed thoroughly every time the
water is changed Once a week 1t is
well to soak the branches in warm
water, before the flowers open, and
thus take the place Of the warm,
spring rains. Do not keep them in a
dry. hot atmosphere.
Hazel tassels will develop in the sit
ting room, so will the pussy willow.
One of the earliest and quickest
shrubs in the house is the forsythia,
along with the Towering almond. The
dogwood unfolds it's lovely disks side
by side with the fragrant crab apple.
Almost all the fruit trees will bios
som indoors, but they take a long
time to do so. Many Towering shrubs
may be relied upon for blossoms,
while the maple, grape, willow, beech,
horse chestnut, ETC., will give leaves
that we prize, as they come before
the swallow dares," and remind us
that the resurrection of nature is at
hand.

GROWING WATER LILIES

Fortunate are those having
natural pond or site where one may
be easily constructed. Yet a minia-
ture pond in the garden is within the
reach Of anyone.
In selecting a site, choose one. II

day glare. yet having the full benefit
of the morning sun.
This should be prepared the fall be-
fore in order to be fully decomposed.
Lilies open in the morning and close
at least partially during the middle OF
the day, hence the more they are pro-
tected from the intense heat the more
lasting will be the blossoms.
1t should be on low ground. the top
being preferably just below the ground
level.
II there is not a natural depression.
an artificial one can easily be made,
the earth removed from the pool be-
ing arranged at the proper place at
the sides to make a gradual slope.
It should be about two feet deep
for our native lilies and lotus, but an
other foot must be added if you are so
ambitious as to try to grow that giant
beauty, Victoria Regina.
Have it protected from high winds
in some way; trees or shrubs serve
nicely.
The material used in making the
pond may be concrete or brick. An

Unless the pond is large. one must
be shy of trying many varieties, as
the stronger soon crowd out the
weaker.
II the tank with pipes is not within
reach, a beautiful effect may be OBJ
tanned by sinking a tub or half bar
rel into the ground and placing one OF
two plants in 1t.
The soil should be very rich and

ideal soil is made by composing barn
yard manure with rich sods of loamy
nature, using in the proportion Of one

Sprinkle a little sand over the tor

sunny exposure during a part Of the

ABOUT EDIBLE FLOWERS

Rose leaf preserve is made in Tur-
key, and carnations, lavender, syringa
are crystallized for CONNECTIONS. The
violet is recognized as an edible tit
bit almost everywhere 1t grows. In
many parts of Europe 1t is the custom
to make use of roses, violets and lime
blossoms for fiavoring. A delicious or
ange flower candy or conserve is made
of tiny bitter embryo oranges picked
from the blossoms center.
Sandwiches are made with nastur-
tiums as a filling. Nasturtiums are
probably the most-used edible flower.
Its young leaves, seed pods and stems
with or without the flowers form an
appetizing salad and add flavor to
sauces, gravies, meat dishes and sal
ads made of potatoes and herbs.

WHEN KIDNEYS ACT BAD
TAKE GLASS OF SALTS

No man or woman who eats meat
regularly can make mistake by flush

well-known authority. Meat forms
uric acid which clogs the kidney pores
SO they sluggishly filter or strain only
part of the waste and poisons from
the blood, then you get sick. Nearly
all rheumatism, headaches, liver trou-
BILE, nervousness, constipation, dizzi-
ness, sleeplessness, bladder disorders
come from sluggish kidneys.
The moment you feel a dull ache in
the kidneys or your back hurts, or if
the urine is cloudy, offensive, full OF
sediment, irregular of passage or at
tended by a sensation of scalding, get
about four ounces of Jad Salts from
any reliable pharmacy and take a
tablespoonful in a glass Of water be-
fore breakfast for few days and your
kidneys will then act fine. This IA
NOUS salts is made from the acid of
grapes and lemon juice, combined with
lithia and has been used for genera

stimulate them to activity, also to neu-

longer causes irritation, thus ending
bladder disorders.

CARE OF FROZEN PLANTS

When plants are frozen or only
frost-bitten, remove them at once to
a cold room or cellar, which can be
darkened, and sprinkle them thorough
iy with cold water. Leave them in
the dark for a day or two until they
are quite thawed out. Then cut of
all the damaged branches below the
line of injury and return gradually to
the temperature of the living room.
Don't delay a moment in removing
frozen plants from high to a low
temperature.

NO POLL TAX If
women GET Vote
Fake "Argument" of Ants
Refuted by Constitution
Of West Virginia.

The Anti.Sufirage organization Il
now proceeding on the theory that the
most sensitive nerve; In mans make
up is in his pocketbook. In thousands
Of documents which they are sending
to the farmers OF this state they are
asserting that the taxes Of the men
will be largely increased II the sut
frage amendment Is carried and the
vote ia given to women. They espe.
cially assert that In this event poll
tax must be levied against women as u
now is assessed against men. They
even claim that women could not vote
unless they have paid this poll tax.
There is absolutely no truth in these
assertions. The poll, or state capita
ton tax. in West Virginia is provided
for in the constitution, and by the
terms Of that instrument 1t Is 10 be as
sessed and collected from males only.
But even the payment ofthis tax by the
men is not condltion3o their right
to vote. This tax has nothing what
ever to do with the franchise. II is
levied on men only andiit is collected
from foreigners as well as citizens.
This is an unpopular tax and instead
OF amending the constitution to make
women pay II the amendment would
doubtless remove It from the men
also.
Another scare tale told by these
false documents has to do with the al.
legged increased cost OF holding cleo.
tons. Here Is what the governors and
secretaries OF state Of several equal
suffrage commonwealths ihave to say
on this point:
WYOMING: Woman suffrage has
not increased taxes in this state nor
cost OF elections"
CALIFORNIA: Increased cost Of
election expense becauseyo Of woman
voters Is very little"
KANSAS: Increased cost OF cleo
tons Insignificant"
IDAHO: Added election expense
infinitesimal."
ARIZONA: Increased cost OF cleo
ton through women yoting;not worth
considering"
In this connection II must be re.
membered that women haveI paid their
full pro rata share of the taxation for
election expenses and that they have
been doing so for more thania century
while being deprived by lawIfrom cast.
ing vote.
The state taxes In the equal suf
frage states are much less than in
those states where manhood. suffrage
alone prevails. The average tax rate
per thousand dollars in the equal sui.
frage states is s3.ss. The, average
rate on the same amount in3the man.
hood suffrage states is s7.06. an in.
crease OF s3.17 per $1,000. Since
women have been voting in California
the odious poll tax has been ,removed
from the men.
The men Of West Virginia. will not
be Influenced by such false statements
as the Ants are making. ltirequires
but little thought on the part Of the
average man to realize that the true
economists Of most families ,are the
wives and mothers. They are the ones
who scrutinize the expenditure Of
every dollar and insist on getting full
value. Instead Of their increasing the
taxes 1t is safe to conclude thai when
they vote in this state the taxes will
be lower instead of higher. /.
