BEAUTY OF THE HYDRANGEA
By LIMA r. ROSE.

Inquiries have come in about good
fall Towering shrubs. II is likely II
a vote were taken for the best late
Towering. hardy shrub the honor
would fall to the Hydrangea.
While there are shrubs that | like
better. this one seems to suit the
masses. 1t has the merit OF extreme
hardness. easy culture, great forifer-
BUSINESS, late blooming and persistent.
It's flowers lose their early white
ness as the season advances, but In
their pinky-brown stage they are not
without attractiveness, and even after
snow comes they afford pleasing ef-
fects when seen against background
of pure white.
In planting the Hydrangea / would
never advise using 1t singly. 1t Is
vastly more effective when grouped
BY this means we secure for 1t
strength and dignity which single
| specimens never have.
The enormous heads OF the bloom
have considerable weight, but the!
are all the more attractive when the.

If HAIR IS TURNING
GRAY, USE SAGE TEA
Don't look Old! Try Grandmother's
Recipe to Darken and eeautify
Gray, Faded, Lfeless Hair.

Grandmother kept her hair beauti-
fully darkened, glossy and abundant
with a brew Of Sage Tea and Sulphur.
Whenever her hair fell out or took on
that dull, faded or streaked appear
ance, this simple mixture was applied
with wonderful effect. BY asking at
any drug store for "Wyeth's Sage and
Sulphur Hair Remedy" you will get
large bottle of this old-time recipe,
ready to use, for about so cents. This
simple mixture can be depended upon
to restore natural color and beauty
to the hair and Is splendid for dan
druff, dry, itchy scalp and falling hair.
A well-known druggist says every
body uses Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur,
because it darkens so naturally and
evenly that nobody can tell it has been
applied-it's so easy to use, too. You
simply dampen a comb or soft brush
and draw it through your hair. taking
one strand at a time. BY morning
the gray hair disappears; after an
other application or two, 1t is re
stored to its natural color and looks
ssy. soft and abundant.-Adv.

To choose clothes for girl OF ten,
or thereabout, is more of a task than
confronts the mother of the very little
girl or presents itself in clothing the
nearly grown miss. 1t happens that
the child from six TO fourteen is very
likely to be too thin and, hence, angu-
lar and awkward. Sometimes she is
considerably too fat. In either case
the mother must select styles that Will
tone down her defects of figure ana
keep her unconscious of them. Oc-
casionally a little girl grows '.p with
out the usual experiences of the awk-
ward age" and the chances are that
She owes much to a judicious mother
who clothed her artfully.
Up to twelve years simple and al
most straight lines are to be recon-
uended in the garments of children.
The skirt reaches the knee or little

there is very good authority for ex'
tending the skirt several inches below
the knee. especially for the girl past

Two pretty frOCks for the ten-year-

successful on almost any figure. One
is of sapphire-blue chiffon made in
one piece with a small bolero of net
and embroidery like the chiffon in

hounce and worn over a silk slip in
the same shade of blue.

STUDY THE CATALOGUES
By LIMA r. ROSE.

When looking over the catalogues
which come to us for the asking we
are often delighted into covetousness |
bv the description OF shrubs, vines ana
perennials. but the price asked al
though merely nominal, place the nor
lists plants beyond our reach.
In that case, we have but TO give
little time and patience to sowing
seeds and caring for the delicate
plants in order to have our longihgs
gratitied. The first thing to DO Is 10
send our order TO reliable firm Inc
next is to give intelligent care to thelr
planting and growing.
Seeds of most of the desirable or
namental vines. shrubs, biennials and
perennials germinate readily while
others are slow in sprouting. but II
planted in good soil and allowed time
/ the reward is sure.
We should inform ourselves on these
subjects as much as possible before
undertaking the work.
During February and March is usu-
ally the time selected for getting our
window boxes in shape, and In these
boxes may be planted the seeds. TO-
gether with many bulbous and tuber-
Gus rooted varieties OF plants. Inc
seeds may be had in mixed packages
for ten cents each, or single.
Do not overlook the orchid when
planning next years flowers.
These seeds may be purchased by
one person. the plants raised to trans
nlanting size and sold for a few cents
each to others, thus covering cost OF
seeds and care, or several may throw
in" and divide the seeds when they
come.
The former plan may be the more
economical, as not everyone makes
success of growing plants from SEEDS
1t is not always well to buy your
seeds of your country merchant; YOU
merchant may be honest, but his mer
chant may not be. Send to reliable
firm, send early and get what you pa!
for. Do not confne yourself TO an
nuals. but SOW the perennial seed
and after the first year you will hav
little trouble.
Nothing adds to the attractivenes
of a home place more than THRIFT
vines. and for most places, perennla
vines are best. For temporary screens
annual vines will do. Seeds shoul
be started indoors early and trans
planted frequently in order TO max
the plants stalky, and as soon as tn
ground gets warm they may be set OF
where they are to remain.
Many of these will grow but litt
at the top for the first year. but WI

Some of the shrubs and perennial
and even the biennials may give
scant bloom the first year, and son
may wait for the first Towering f
