It is a sequel to the bright col- j , orrd stop-nnd-go suit .evolved by : ' the bureau last fall, to- aid motor- j , ists In seeing children on tho high- ) ! ways. , - . ! ' The new suits of water-proofed j col ton f o r i n i n y d a y s and warm suede and knitted material for. snow answer the needs of the child j who would njoy outdoor exerclso j In all kinds of weather. The president has urged more ! playgrounds, nnd more outdoor : play for nli children. So women ' designers of the bureau evolved j these suits -to fit in with his pro- fcram. j The suits ha'Ve been put to prac- j tical tests,: youngsters wearing i them in nil kinds of weather under the watchful tyfta of the women designers. Strips' of oilcloth inside J the front self-fasteners, and. snug j knitted bands at wrists and ankles, prevent snow slipping in. . The rainy day suit is made of. water-proofed cotton material, nnd ) Hie snow suit of suede. Jor very j cold days one-piece suits of light ! weight jersey with front self-fast- ! cuing are worn underneath. I Cuffs of the materia) with large meutl button fastenings come well down over tile ankles. Sometimes the designers make several suits Iwioro they find one which is entirely satisfactory. One recently designed winter play suit was discarded, because when put imo pracucai use snow suppea up. under the little jacket. The plain one-piece suit was found best after J many tests. Those who know the beautiful poppy anemone. A. Coronaria, with itrf brilliant reds, blues, and rose and pinks,, usually with a con spicuous white zono nhout a dark central boss, make thorn nn an nual feature of their garden. They are not reliably' hardy but need only the protection of a cold frame to flourish luxuriantly and send up a fine lot of the most beauti ful of cutting material ' . They may be wintered in the open ground with, a liberal mulch but nro not reliable handled in tills manner. . They . are . sure-fire subjects in the cold frame. The little, drted-up tubers that arrive when ordered do not look as if there was any life in them, but they are one of the most certain of all bulbs to grow. The diffi culty is to tell which side up to plant them. The side showing a depression is one indication, and the stubs of dry roots another. The depression is the top. The dry roots indicate the bottom. In ease of doubt plant them edgewise and they will grow. Bury them about two Inches deep.

The St. Brigid is one of the I finest strains. These are semi l double and from the original St. i Hrlgid have originated several se lected strains. The larger flow ered singles nre preferred ty some to St. Brigid and the Caen strain Is fine In this line. Plant them six inches apart late In the fall so that they will not start into growth too quickly. They have follago much resembling smooth -leaved parsley, and from this foliage rle stems to the height of from six Inches toi foot bearing the large flowers; which in coloring rival tho tulips. A number of stems are sent from each tuber. If you have a cold frame handy fill it with anemones. A few ranunculus will give an added surprise. They are not as easy subjects as the anemones but re quire the same treatment, and their huge double blooms In yel lows, reds and browns are fine material for bouquets. The ran unculus has a tiny group of tubers much like a mininture dahlia root. These nre to be pressed into tho soil nnd covered about an inch. GOLD BEADS, PEARLS MARK EVENING BAGS PALM BEACH, Fla.
