Many enthusiastic reports have come
from the other side about the excellent
work that women are doing as drivers
of motorcars but that there Is another
side to the picture is suggested by a
testimonial recently Incorporated In an
advertisement of Il British automobile
manufacturer. This testimonial is from

says of the car in question: Anything

NATIVE BULBS
BY LIMA r. ROSE.

You would not think one could ind
enough native bulbs to stock garden,
but every year l discover some new
ones and have high hope for future re-
searches.
The first thing that opens in my
wild garden Is the'iris. Our mountain
sides are covered with 1t in the spring,
and the flower stalks on the mountain
are seldom more than seven or eight
inches high but mine are much taller
and the purple flowers very much
larger
Dog-tooth violet comes next, and Is
one of my prime favorites. I departed
from my usual rule and planted the
bulbs in a large Jar, which was sunk
in the earth and filed with rich soil
Of creek loan, leaf mold and fertilizer
from the barn. The flowers are much
larger than those found growing by
the brook two years ago. The leaves
are very handsome, rich, dark green,
notified curiously with dark brown
and white The flower Is a clear lemon
yellow tinge, with recurved petals
about two inches long and dark brown
stamcns.
Besides white and yellow water
lilies, I have two others that are ma
tives. One, delicate little white
beauty, that is called the fairy lily"
the other larger, blooming in early
spring and sending up leafless flower
stalk. 1t is also white in color.
My wake-robins and lady slippers
also come on early, In colors pink,
white, pale yellow and rich purple.
The violet wood sorrel Is quite as
pretty as its naughty greenhouse kins-

color instead of reddish purple, and Its
leaves dark green with deep choco-

Concerning Sponges.

Sponges are animals with power TO
eat and digest. They begin their life
as tiny eel-li'ic creatures and have
short, free life in the sea, after which
they fastcn themselves to rock and
begin to develop. They grow into all
sorts of shapes. Some branch out in
all directions like fingers, and are
called mermaid's gloves. There are fam
like sponges, trcelike sponges and cup
like sponges. There are sponges that
form carpet over the rocks, and

nests" because they look like birds'

cold weather of last winter.
The officers made a survey Of the

Just what they decided could not be

concerning the misunderstanding

use Of the coal cards, and conditions
generally:
Prom information which comes to
me through the coal dealers and local
administrators for Middlesex County,
1t appears that there Is a great deal
OF Misunderstanding on the part Of the
public as to the reason for signing
coal cards when supply for delivery is
not available and the effect Of sign
ing the card.
1.-The public does not seem to real

ton. 1t Is absolutely certain that there
will be, next winter a shortage Of do
mestic sizes of anthracite coal. The
only uncertainty is as to the extent of

"Eleanor's heart was broken the
day she found out was going to
marry you. I did write her, Margie.
I was man enough to do that. not to
let her hear Of It from someone else.
THE day after told you loved
you and you innocently took 1t as a

It, but Eleanor Fairlow was a splen-

THE LOVE OF TWO WOMEN

~ give you my word, Margle,

Dick. Don't mistake me, dear one,
I loved you entirely and absolutely,
but I knew that it was the only man
iy thing to do to marry Eleanor.
"You see Eleanor and I had been
everything to each other. and with
the impetuousness OF youth L had
claimed her as mine.
1.-THE whole thing happened when
we were out camping one summer,
and will always say that poor Flea

party of young people were at the
camp and mother had gone with US
as our chaperone.

sponsibility mother would look after
party Of boys and girls. She al
ways seemed to think that all the
young people she knew were a KIND
of denatured race, at least that Is the
only way I can excuse her for the lax
way in which she looked after us.
1.-THE summer that I was nineteen
years old and Eleanor was seventeen
we were at the camp. All the others
were about Mollie's age. Mother was,
as usual, over at the hotel. about ten
miles from the camp most of the
time, and she left the smaller chill

but mother knew that Eleanor loved

protected her from her love and me.

Just because we were her children we
could DO no wrong. That is why she
never would blame Jack for anything

had not made friend Of Mollie, she
too might have made a mess of her

Dear, dear Dick, my only regret of
1t all is that you did not tell me all
OF this as we went along over the
thorny path-and yeti wonder, lit

then as I do now. Besides. according
to his code-a mans code-Dick
could not have told me of Eleanor
Fairlow then, in fact. he says In his
manuscript:

this about Eleanor Fairlow and me to
you had you not known more or less
about 1t years ago. I am telling you
