9 à w o M A N TEETH AS THEY GROW POT GROWN BULBS. Mrs. Joe Letter Nurse at the Fire Pit. Queen of American Battlefields — IVoman Rules an Empire. How They Can Be Cultivated Easily In Houses. More women would grow flowers In the house If there was not an errone ous Impression that it required too much skill and an abuudance of time. There are, perhaps, certain kinds of flowers. such as roses und carnations, which do not respond well to the effort of the amateur, but bulbs rarely full. Their culture is simple in the extreme —a good potting soil containing plenty of sharp sand, a long |>eri<>d of seclu i sion In the dark to make root growth and gradual bringing to the light. It Is at this period that most women are at a loss as to the proper care of plants. They cannot fall if they remem her these few pointers on pot grown bulbs: The best temjierature for root growth is 40 degrees, for leaves aud stems GO degrees and for the best bloom 60 de grees. The ordinary living room is too hot for successful bulb growing. The cooler the room the longer the flowers last and the larger they are. Bringing the |s>tted bulb directly from the dark Into the hot living room is the cause of short stems and stunted foliage. Do not have too strong a light when the bulbs are flrst brought in from t ye dark. A shelf away from the window where the temperature Is about 50 de grees Is best until the flower buds be gin to show. Bulbs should never be kept In a tem perature of 70 degrees, unless they are to be quickly forced. It pays to buy a high grade of bulbs If you would not be disappointed in re sults. If the soil in the yard Is too heavy for potting It can be lightened by mix ing sand with it. Never bring manure in contact with bulbs. It Is fatal to them. To tell whether a pot Is filled with roots turn It upside down, tap the edge gently, and the ball of earth will come out in the hand. Mrs. Joe Leiter—so she is called by society—wife of the Chicago million aire, noted for her beauty aud a charming woman withal, recently prov ed herself a humanitarian and a help meet to her busband when he waa fighting fire In his coal mine at Zeigler, Ill. The Leiters were at home In Cid cago when they got news of the disas ter. Mr. Leiter took a special train to the scene. His wife went with him.

Qu««n of American Battlefields Mrs. I.uclnda Dogan, ninety years old and known lu Virginia as the •‘queen of the battlefields,” is still liv ing Her home in Groveton overlooks the first Bull Kun tight, which took place July 21, 1861. The house Is in the center of the field on which was fought the second Bull Run battle. Aug. 29 and 30. 1862. After both hat ties Mrs. Dogan with her children went out among the wounded and ad ministered to their wants so far ns she was able. Wheu the long trenches for the dead were dug she assisted in the burials. The wounded'were so numer ous that the medical staffs of both ar mies used all their bandages. Mrs. Dogau gave up her bed sheets and towels to the surgeons and assisted them in preparing the bandages. An hour before the second battle Stone wall Jackson sent one of his staff to tell Mrs Dogan that "there was goiug to be a fight near her place" and ud vised her to get it way. Before she could start the first guns were tired. A sick woman whom Mrs. Dogan bad been uursing in a house near her own waa killed by a shell soon after the battle began. Before the last tight a forest stood around the little town. Wheu the battle ceased the trees had beeu shot dowu, and nothing but their ■tumps remained. Mrs. Dogan's mind is still unclouded, mid she tells the sto ries of both battles in an interesting manner Woman Rules Thia Empire.

The best way to do this is to tack a piece of muslin across the open win dow by means of thumb tacks. If the air is chilly this will keep the drafts off the patient and will keep out the dust and dirt which might otherwise be blown in. If the day is hot and sultry, and these days are the hard est and most trying on a sick person, an Ideal way to ventilate, purify and cool the air is to open the window or windows and stretch a piece of mus lin across the opening, then lower the shades to where the window Is open ed, and after this has l>een done thor oughly saturate the muslin with cold water. Then place a large basin or pail of cold water under or near the bed. If this Is done It often will en able a restless patient to obtain some much needed sleep and rest. As soon as the muslin becomes dry wet It again. How to Clean Satin Slippers. If you wore satin slippers last win ter and find upon taking them out this season that they are soiled, it is well to clean them at once. If the satin Is but slightly soiled get some pieces of stale bread and rub the surface gently with It. This takes off all small dis colorations. Kneaded rubber will do the same work, although some women do not like it because It crumbles off on the satin. If the slipper Is still soiled looking after this treatment, rub the entire surface with the thread. Remember not to go against or across It. White flannel should be used—a clean piece—dipped tn spirits of wins. If this rubbing Is done gently and evenly over the surface, the effect la excellent. How to Make .Cabbage Salad. For a cabbage salad make a dressing with a quarter of a cup of flour and two level tablespoonfuls of butter rub bed together and cooked with a cup of vinegar. Add a beaten egg, a pinch of salt and a scant teaspoonful of mixed mustard. Beat all the time It la cook ing. Cool and add at the time of serv ing two tablespoonfuls of thick cream, beaten, a teaspoonful of sugar and a few dashes of pepper. Shred or chop some cabbage and pour the dressing over. (Tarnish with hard boiled egga cut In quarters and then across one* Add also a few sprigs of parsley. How to Make a Shoo Bag. A handy shoe bag for traveling may be made from linen or any stout ma terial. Make Two oblong bags exactly alike. To make the bags cut the linen in four pieces eighteen Inches long by seven wide. Place two together and bind firmly with braid. Turn over a hem at the top three inches deep and draw up with braid. One drawstring bolds the bags together. The word “Shoes’* may ta embroidered on each bag In double outline stitch. Hew to Iron Embroidered Collars. When Ironing stocks for the neck or embroidered linen collars iron them on a thick towel which has been folded three or four times and laid on the board Stocks ironed in this manner will appear like new, and If you Iron the embroidered linen collars on the wrong side on this folded tbwel the embroidery pattern will stand out In bold relief. How to Wash Handkerchiefs Easily. To wash handkerchiefs easily place the handkerchiefs to soak overnight In salt water that Is so strong ft is nearly a brine. In the morning lift the hand* kerchiefs out with a stick and rinse la warm water, after which It will be no task to wash them la the usual way. e o o The Way Nature Forms and Fixes * Them In the Gums. 3s0s0s0s0«0s00s0s0*0«0s0»0 THE CASE OF o 2 GIUSEPPE VITTORI § O A K ]< 5 '• Slory of ike Italian Earthquakes.
