YOUR WINDOW BOX.
Booonlni Aro Eaolly Grown, and Fornt
Aro of Pormnnont uoauty.
Ilegonlas are admirable plants for
growing In window boxes. Thu foliage
of nil begonias Is attractive, but espe
cially so are the beautifully marked
IcnvcH of tho Hex variety. TMo beef
utenk, Glolro do I.omilno and other va
rieties may bo exacted to grow well
nnd to llower under tho conditions that
suit tho vines already described, says
the department of ngilculturc.
Ferns In variety aro nvallablo for tho
window box nnd may bo helected at
any llorlst's to suit the tasto of the
grower, but dwarf varieties nre better
suited for tho room avnllnblo. Ferns
may bo grown with begonias satisfac
torily. Hotli requlro n tcnipernturo
lower than tho nveingo living room.
Coleus Is another group of plants that
may be grown lu 11 window box, but
they must havo sun. The lenves of
these plants have a wide tiuigo of color
and marking as well as of size and
slinpo. They must have n warmer ut-nio-jphero
th'nn tho plants already men
tioned, n temperature of 55 degrees to
CO degrees at night being desirable.
Tho mouly bug Is ofton quite troublu
somo on colons.
For an upright plant growing n foot
or eighteen Inches high tihpldlstrn is
satisfactory. Tho leaver of this plant
grow In somewhat the miuio manner as
garden tlags, but there nre varieties
with vai legated leaves as well as thoso
with green leaves.
How to Tranefor.
Hero are suggestions for transfer
ring tho pattoin before you to any ma

when tlio material Is thin, like linen,
batiste, etc. Pin the sheet of paper
and tho material together and hold
them up against the glass of a window.
With n sharp pencil draw on tho noto

seen through the goods. If one-half of
the design duly bo given unpin the pa

Open Ploaturo Places Aro Often Dl
vortod From Their Proper Uo.
Why do public pnrlw offer an lrro
nlstlblo temptation to city councils,
commissions, societies and tho llko to
dlveit them from their proper use?
Philadelphia has been very fortunate
lu preserving her breathing spares
from contamination. Put most other
cities have had to fight all sorts of
schemes for giving to n part of tho
people what belongs to tho whole pco-1
pie. Hardly a year passes without
some assault upon the Integrity of
Central park, lu New Yoik. That Is
tho greatest asset of lis kind the city
has. Vet but for the energetic protests
of public spirited newspapers and citi
zens It would bo tilled by now with
bulldlnga or turned over to various so
cieties for special purposes. So lioston
has been forced again and again to de
feud the common and the I'ubllc gar
den from encroachments, nnd Wash
ington Is ut present exercised over the
plan to erect n power houso close to
the Washington mouumelit. It Is Hot
u moro question of tho greed of real
estate speculators. Many who honest
ly think that they have the good of
tho people nt heart nrpimntly irunot
grasn tl-. fa t lint 1 ill.- m. t te
considered in M'nw of ihe v.Jiolo peo
pie and not or any part. Thus they
aro neither to bo devoted to a part 1101
to be used by tho whole without such
restrictions nu will protect tho Inter
csts of every part.
Kvcii park commissioners havo not
always followed this salutary rule
Thcro was ono recently In New York
who believed that, becauso the parks
belonged to the people, the people
could do anything they ehoso with
them. They could litter them with
rubbish, they could trample down the
grass, they could deface the trees
nnil shrubbery, and nothing must bo
donu to prevent them. The fallacy of
this argument Is obvious. It makes
each member of the public lu effect u
private owner, with liberty to do what
he likes with his own. it Is re;illy 11
denial of the civic spirit which con
siders first the good of all. There Is
great need hi most of our American
cities of it better cult,!vutlon of this
spirit. No Intelligent observer can
havo failed to note the mipcrloilty of
European elllcs In this respect. The
value of open spaces Is more thuinugh
ly appreciated there, nnd thu protection
of them Is muie u matter of Individual
concern. Philadelphia need not fear
for her parks, It Is true, but In some
other respects her civic M'trlt might
i bo mado more active. No man does
his duty to tho community lu which
ho lives by merely accepting Its bene
fits mid falling to cherish and protect
Its rights. Philadelphia Ledger.

TO REBUILD A CITY.
New Park Scheme.
A now plan to mnko tho pail: more
intensively useful to tho public has
been put Into operation by Park Com
missioner Ingersoll'of Jlrooklyn. This
plan, which utilizes the sch6ol Turni
uiiiilon cottages hi parks as neighbor
hood hoclal centers, has proved very
popular. Tho other memuers or inu
park board uro manifesting consider
able Interest In tho plan, which may
lead to Its extension to tho other bor
oughs of the city.
Tho use of recreation buildings lu
parks for social centers Is 11 now Idea
-.11 purl: woik. It Is especially adapted
j New York city, whore tho great
majority of the parks are located lu
neighborhoods of large homogeneous
populations and not situated at the
outskirts as they die In most other
1 communities. Hitherto, social center
work has been cnirled on by private
associations and In certain public
I schools.

Is said.
According to the plans, Itngnlt will

About 100 houses have been donated

At tho heudqunrters of the fund a
letter has been received from Germany
stating that Kmpcror William, In a
message road lu tlio Prussian diet
by Chancellor von llcthuiauu-Hollweg, 1
thanked all German Americans who '
contributed to tho work of rebuilding
tho Fast Prussian district. Tho em

In Planning Your Plot Always Dear In

and Othor Colors.
While seeds nre gcrmhintlng nnd
plants nre very small they must bo
handled with the utmost enru and pre
caution, for, tiny ami inslgulilcnut as
the young seedling may appear, it Is
extremely sensitive to changes In tem
perature, too much or too little mois
ture, gas lu tho room, disease and all
tho things which sometimes even lar
ger plants have not tho strength to re
sist.
I There nre a few (lowers that should
be started lu tho isced pans. Ono Is
salvia, or scarlet sage. It Is such a
daring color that It must bo planted
with exceedingly good Judgment not
prominently, for It will mnko itself
'seen In whatever distance or conceal-
incut it Is placed, ami not close to tho
porch of a red brick house, a mlstaku
which Is no frequently made, hut It
should bo near blending or well con
trasting colors. Salvia Is ouu of tho
lust llowcrs to bloom hi tho fall, but It
Is slow growing, and tho seed must bo
started at once.
Verbenas nru frco blooming nnd gen
' orally satisfactory, but they must bo
chosen carefully with regard to colors.
Avoid the scarlet and other shades of
ted and ptirplo unless you know exact
ly where they uro to bo put nnd nro
sure that they will not clnsh with other
things. The white Is lovely hi n small
' garden where there nro nlrendy llowcrs
of many colors.
It will pleiiKo you later If you bow
one pan of salplglosls and any of tlio
varieties with gold. Tho llowcrs nro so
bountifully .veined they should bo pop

bo transplanted Into another pan an

habit of "damping oir' tliat Is, tho
