HOW TO GROW FERNS
INDOORS Is TOLD

Ferns are among the most beautiful
and interesting plants you can grow
INDOORS o can get the small ferns
III the 3-inch pots at the florists, and
then you can transplant chem into
larger pots or into decorative n
boxes and watch them as they grow
in s,ze and beauty.
II you are making baskets out of
reed Or other materials you can
make very attractive combinations by
placing the growing ferns In hanging
baskets or other forms of basketry
And IT you are making metal or other
chains you can make your own chains
Tor suspendlng i hanging baskets.
The Holly Fern.
The holly fern is one of tho COM
moneSt and hardest OF house ferns.
1t IS excellent for fern dishes If small
plants are chosen. The green of the
young leaves of this variety is much
fresher and more attractive than that
of the older leaves. Two or three
young plants may be placed side by
side in a form dish OF other shallow
receptacle.
The crested holly fern Is an i'm
proved variety in which the edges of
the leaves are cut into many divisions
that give the plant a very decorative
effect.
The Pteris Ferns.
Pteris is a Latin word. 1t is pro-
nounced Teris. There are many small
ferns which you will find In the plant
catalogues under the name. One Of
the best of these goes by the Latin
name Pteris wilson, and is commonly
called the crested fern. It is fine for
a child to grow In a paper fowerpot
or a good fern dish. The roots do not
take up much room in comparison to
the leaves. Each leaf breaks apart
at the tip into q number OF lngerlike
branches that give the plant an inter-
esting appearance.
The white-lined fern Is another of
this Pter,s group that is attractive
and easy to grow. 1t has long,
slender leaves or fronds with pretty
white lines running along the prin~
cipal veins.

LOIS could reach New York early in
the morning.
Alice did not see her. After Lois
had told her news, Alice had stayed
In her room, trying to stile the sounds
or her sobs as best she could-partly
so her mother would not grieve, partly
out Of pride, so hat Lois, in the
next room. could not hear. Meantime.
Mrs. Fairbanks stayed alone in the
kitchen, heartbroken herself, longing
to comfort her daughter, yet wise
enough to know hat there are some
sorrows that are easiest to c a alone.
Hours later. Alice came downstairs.
Her face was still white, her eyes
were swollen n red-lidded, her hair
had tumbled unheeded own her neck,
"I forgot the ishes," she said in a
curious fiat voice. Her mother looked
up and held out her hand.
II did them" she said.
In spite of her pre-occupation. Alice
vas amazed.
'sWhy, Mother, you haven't done
such a thing for years! You've never
been able to stan dthat long. Are
you sure you haven't hurt yourself?"
'sThere are tintz, daughter" Mrs.
Fairbanks remarked slowly, when the
best thing in the world is necessity.

for years. But l believe it has done
ME good, and shall always do the

SO a tiny ray of comfort crept into
Allce's heart. This was the first sigu
her mother had shown of recovery.
Next day Alice arose early, prepared
the breakfast, swallowed some hot
coffee, and having hastily busted and
straightene the house, she went out
and down the street. She heard Lois
stirring. and she knew she could not
face her. She did not wan to say
anything hard, but the very thought
of the girl who had played with her
and deceived her and made off with
the one treasure in her life, made
her blindly and furiously angry.
So she turned away from ene nam
streets and went over to the foreign
section. Peppita, sitting in her door
way, greeted her with an enthusiasm
that was wonderfully comforting.
II thought you never would come
again" she said, her dark eager eyes
upturned to Alice.
"Of curse l would come again,

"Oh. they said" and Peppita pointed

Mamie Mulligan had gotten into. Alice
usually was amused by the Joys and
scandals of the neighborhood, and
Peppita, whose sole contact with the

up the choicest items to hear Alice
laugh at them.
The crippled girl kissed her good
bye with almost passionate warmth
and made her promise to come with

with a warm feeling around her heart
again, in place of the queer dull numb

The tears were in her eyes and run

them, however, and tried to look calm
