THE DANGER OF PLANTS
IN THE BEDROOM

Bedrooms should not contain flow
ers or plants, particularly over night.
Carbonic acid gas, the poisonous gas
which IS given out in the exhalation
of humans. IS evolved from the col
Ored parts OF flowers both by night
and day. ard from tho green parts n
addition at night. It is therefore the
part OF wisdom 10 recognize this fact.
1t IS pleasant 20 have flowers in a
guest room. but for the reason just
set forth they should not remain In
the sleeping chamber. The way to
get around the difficulty is by the
use Of a window box.

Afghanistan Solves Old-Maid Problems; No Limit On Wives

NEW YORK. July IS. - "Afshani- stan has solved many problems; for example. there are no old maids in Kabur."

 The princess is the sultana of Ka- bur. cousin of the reigning emir of Afghanistan and-a humorist. Shes here on her way to England.
 But" she added seriously, "the royal family frowns on the solution of the spinster problem. It's polyg- amy. In Afghanistan man can have forty wives. if he can support them. and this is not so difficult for per son can live on 10 cents a day
 The royal family is working in many ways to elevate women's sta tion
 The princess is shopping in New York. Among other things she in- tends to have diamond set - the third largest diamond in the world.

 The princess sets Afghan styses. I found her at the Waldorf Astoria gowned ir a blaze, of colors. Around her neck were gold plates engraved with sacred words from the Koran. On her fingers were rings of multi colored gems. Gold ornaments were in her hair and gold and jeweled ear rings fell from her ears.
 She stencils her eyebrows, and otherwise embellishes the eyelids and lasbes, the entire makeup giving her eyes the appearance of blazing orbs.
 Though otherwise oriental, she wears American lace stockings and pumps-and she's going to buy some American gowns and suits. With short skirts? Of course,
