Of the latest arrivals In the assemblies
OF midwint er hats are far from simple.

AFL0WER or THE RICH

Everyone Of the recent flower shows
In the East has been marked by the
keen competition displayed among the
wealthy patrons for awards in the
Tchigantus class. TX
I Much time, care and attention are re-
quired to get in the blue ribbon class
in the culture of this plant. 1t seems
to offer little for the person with the
small garden because Of the care and
the amount of outlay that seems to be
necessary to get the best results with
1t.
Undoubtedly. it presents rich APP
pearance and is worth all the care that
may be bestowed by those who possess
the means, but most Of the average
reade"s will find something else in the
garden that presents just as rich an
aspect with less requirement of labor
to bring it to perfection. The chief
reason why it is society favorite Is
that only the best equipped places can
afford to take part in the competition
and there is certain air of distinction
In being an exhibitor in this class.

PLANNING THE BULB BEDS
ny ELIZABETH VAN BENTHUYsEN

Ry ELIZABETH VAN BENTHUYSEN
There is no more profitable pastime
for the winter days and nights than the
planning Of the bulb beds that are TO
come with the new season. Everyone
knows just how large a place IN the
lawn the beds can have. There Is no
question as to the location Of the beds.
Why not plan an arrangement that
win make your beds attract attention
as the distinctive work Of q person OF
ideas7 S4 F,
First, measure your lawn space and
decide how many beds you will have.
Then take q sheet Of paper and lay off
on It the entire lawn and draw into
II number Of designs. The more y''u
practice making drawings for the beds
the easier 1t will become anu the mere
apt you are to get something that will
make the passers pause to admire not
only the flowers but the genius Of their
arrangement. Hyacinths, tulips ind
daff0dlls, with a background Of lilies,
makes fine combination. There iS no
limit to the number of designs and ar
rangements that can be made, and ey-
cry shape and angle known to the
geometry can be utilized in the plans.
As an item Of home pleasure and
instruction some slight regard night
be offered to the children for the
brightest suggestions. It will crerte
new interest among item in the flow
ers and will prove oi material value
us well as having educ; tional ellen rents.
There are SO few things about the
management and making Of home
where the children ever get a chance
to take a hand in suggesting work that
they usually like the. dignity of being
consulted.

ROSES SET IN POTATOES

How Iaany lovers of roses ever tried
the plan of setting cuttings in pOta-
toes? The su .cess of the idea is
Souched for by several able culturists.
The idea is to take cuttings from the
late blooming wood and make the po-
tatoes supply both the food aud the
moisture for the winter roofing.
The potato is first pierced with II
steel crochet needle or. wooden meat
skewer. Then the cutting is run all
the way through the potato. Several
cuttings are placed in one potato. The
potato is then soaked in water over
night and planted in a protected place
near fence or wall. .,...
A preserve jar is used to cover the
cutting, with weight on top to keep
it from blowing over and, at the same
time, to prevent sunburn. The cut
tings are left until spring when it will
be found that in nearly every case they
have rooted. -'.

THE WINTER SUN PARLOR

+ One of the very easiest luxuries to
have is a sun parlor for the winter.
There Is no more delightful adjunct to
a home than sun parlor and the out
lay for it's making is inconsiderable
when compared to the comfort and JOY
that it brings. The parlor may be
built as an added thought to a home
already constructed, or it may be mere
ly the adaptation of balcony or
porch, converted by simply closing In
the porch with glass. The furnishings
are simple. A few large and comfort
able chairs, lounge, table and rug
or two. make up the prime essentials.
OF course one may have flowers In the
sun parlor with advantage to both the
parlor and the flowers.

come to In the morning with a Tin
cup full Of muddy water oeing nnndeii
to you, and you viii know what
mean.
At Gaba Tepe there were steep little
hills with quarries IN between them,
and most of the prisoners we took
were caught in the quarries. we
found lots of dead Turks under piles
of rock, where our guns mad battered
the walls OF the quarries down on
them.
We were fighting about this part oil
the country one time when we saw
three motor trucks disappear over the
side of hill going across country.
The detachment from the Cassaro was
sent over on the run and we came
upon the Turks from those trucks and
several others just after they had got
out and were starting ahead on foot
We captured that whole bunch--l do
not know how many In all. They were
reinforcements on their way to part
Of their line that we were batterlng
very hard, and by capturing them we
helped the Anzacs a great deal, for
they were able to get through for
big gain.
We held that position. though they
rained shells on lis so hald all that
day and night that we thought they
were placing a barrage for a raid, and
stood to arms until almost noon the
next day. But our guns gave back
shell for shell, and pounded the Turk
ish trenches and broke shrapnel over
them until they had oil they could
do to stay In them.
Finally, our guns placed shell after
shell on the enemy's communication
trenches. and they could neither bring
up reinforcements nor retire. So we
went over and cleaned them out and
took the trench. But then our guns
had to stop because we were in range,
and the Turks brought up reinforce
ments from other parts Of the line and
we were driven back after holding
their trench all afternoon. 1t was
about fifty-fifty, though, for when they
reinforced one part of the line some
Of our troops would break through In
another part.
That night there was a terrible rain
storm. | guess it was really cloud
burst. We had all the water we
wanted then. and more, too. A great
many men and mules we're drowned.

Picked Him Up and Started Back.
both Of our troops and the Turkish.
Trenches were washed In and most OF
the works ruined. There were several
Turkish bodies washed into our trench.
and two mules came over together.
though whether they were Turkish or
French or British do not know.
few days after the rain stopped
was going along the road to the
docks at "y" beach when ! saw some
examples Of the freakishness Of shells.
There was long string Of mules 60
Ing back to the trenches with water
and supplies Of various kinds. We
drew up to one side to let them pass.
Two or three mules away from us
was an old-timer with only one ear,
and that very gray. loaded to the gun
wales with bags of water. He had had
his troubles, that old boy. but they
were just about over, for there was a
flash and the next instant you could
not see a thing left of Old Missouri.
He just vanished But two OF the
water bags were not even touched.
and another one had only little hole
In 1t. There they lay on the ground,
just as though you had taken the mule
out from under them. The mules next
him, fore and aft, were knocked down
by the conclusion but uRharmed; but
the third mule behind had one ear
cut to shreds, and the man behind
him was badly shot up and stunned.
A little farther ON a shell had struck
the road and plowed furrow two or
three feet wide, and just as straight
as an arrow for three of four yards
1t then turned off at almost q
right angle and continued for yard
or two more before 1t burst and made
big hole. That Turk gunner must
have put lot of English on that shell
when he fred 1t. He got somebody's
number with that shot, too, and the
lad paid pretty high, for there was
blood around the hole. not quite dry
when we got to 1t.
