isiS p-4 iwy EVCTITO TJT3T)ai3B--PHTL-AI)IFHlA SATURDAY. MAT J A WOMAN AND THE HOME; ..L , -i n , Wifely Opinions on Husbands T"OES It really do to take a wife' U opinion nbodt her husband?" was a question recently naked, yet without Awakening ma,ny conclusive or definite replies, Contributions on the subject were decidedly diverse, the majority holding that the wife was really the tnost rellnblo person In whom to trust or delineation Of husbandly characteristics, nnd, of course, hUbbandly fallings. One somewhat cynical writer, however, took the opposite point of view. "A wife's opinion," she declares, "must neces sarily be prejudiced. No woman can ever live lth n man for nny length of time and yet continue to hold a good opinion of him. Just as no man la a hero to his valet, so no husband Is a glorified being tp his Wife. Mntrlmony kills the germ or amiability In a man and acts as a perfect kind of Inoculation against every form Of caress. Any husband, however bad a match ho may be, can be guaranteed to flare up at the slightest opportunity. There Isn't a hero, dead or alive, who ever felt It Incumbent upon him to bo civil to his wife! ... , "A man may bo awfully' fond of his wife, mind ou-he probably Is deadly of raid of he.r and jet for the life of him ho Can't help bulbing her about the bacon, or his boots, or his bank balance "Why' can't a husband remain a lover, that's what I want to know? It ought to be much easier now that he's got the whftle house to make love In without any Inconvenient Interference. Why can't ho say nice things about his wife's eyes, In stead of nasty ones aboutiher seeing too much; or pralso the size of her mouth without any ulterior observations about the length of her tongue?" ... Why not. Indeed7 I am very much In clined to dispute the entire truth of the foregoing too analytical remarks. There are a few husbands, after all, who do remain lovers', although assuredly some of them have" a' curjous way of showing that selfsame affection. The British husband, for Instance, has a strong dislike of any public demonstra tions In the matter of matrimonial re gard! He may be utterly devoted to his CHILDREN'S CORNER A Shadow-Land ONE bright sprjng day, Ned couldn't go to school with the other children, he cquld not even sit up, ho was so Blckl All (ho whole long sunshiny day he had to stay In his bed-whlch is stupid busi ness you know, If you have ever tried it. By the next day he waB much better, but still unable tu go to school, When the evening of the second day came, he was well enough to want something In teresting to do every minute and he had used up every suggestion his mother had made. Finally bedtime came and mother said good night all around. "But. mother." objected Ned, "I've been In the house all day. and lying down a lot of the time, I Just know I can't go to sleep yet! May stay up a little longer?" "Not a minute longer!" said mother pleasantly, "boys who have been sick need rest, so bedtime mustn't be neglec ted I" ''But I know I'll Just lie awake and . lie awake," grumbled Ned, but he started for the stairs Just the same. "If you like, Ned," said his sister Em ma, "I'll tell you a game I used to play with myself when I had to stay In bed so long with my hurt ankle. It's lota of fun." "Oh, I don't care for any girls' 'game!" replied Ned testily. But Emma took no notice of the testlness; she only said kind-, ly: "This Isn't a girl's game, Ned, this Is a. circus," "Circus!" scoffed Ned In. real brother fashion. "Who could play circus In bed I Xou have to run and Jump and rowdy ta play circus! Guess I ought to know; I've, played It enough times." Emma laughed, "That may be true ot your kind of circus, hut it Is not true of, mine. You HAVE to be fn bed to play mine) I know, for I have played It many anight," "Ail right. let's try It," said Ned, In terested Uv spite of himself. So the chil dren got permission from mother to go Int'tf .Ned's, room for ten minutes while he jf,, should be Instructed In the new game; they even persuaded mother to come along and be timekeeper and watch the fun. rJ "First thine after vnn l In hd." h. an Emma, "s to look around the walla.

Hence he Is often unnecessarily brusque and off-hand In his manner toward her. You simply can't get him to go In for little public demonstrations of affection. ... Therefore, ho Is often a much-maligned man, not by his wife, but by Interested spectators. "Mr. Jones doesn't care n bit for his wife," people will say. "He Is so casual In his manner toward herl" Hut Interested spectators are frequently very wide of the mark In their final summing-up. For an Inside view Is the only thing that counts In the matter of opinions. And the wife Is really the only person who can speak with author ity on any such subject ns her husband nnd his particular disposition. One meets many charming cultured, Interesting men. who appenr the em bodiment of liUBbandly virtues. But to listen to their wives! "You should JuBt see him at home," they remark with bated breath! When I hear talk of that sort, I wonder Just whoso fault It Is, the husband's or the wife's? What nre the wives like In their prlvato attltudo toward their husbands? And Isn't the game scry much In their own hands, after all? The attl tudo of the husband too often reflects tho unfortunate attitude of his wife.

"From "the night light," replied Emma, pointing to where It stood on the littio tahle by tho bed "All right," said Ned. looking round the room, "I think that wall over there Is the best," The shadows of your raised knees make the big tents. "Then It Is our circus ground," said Emma, "and now we will make the pa rade." She pointed to the wall. "See how the shadows of your raised knees make the big tents? Now see how many kinds of animals you can make with your lingers," Hy that time, mother, Mary Jane and Jack were all as Interested as Ned, and they all set to work to make shadows. By curling and twisting their Angers, by moving their hands In different ways, they made animals of all shapes and sizes, and they found It a lot of fun. After the parade, Ned pulled down the tents and had a real performance, which was so Interesting that mother forgot all about bedtime,.

"Why, Joe Hnrrlngton ! What's wrong?" The bride's brother was a clear-headed master ot ceremonies. "You belong with ClarlsRa. you know." "Yei, I know. Some mistake. Every body excited, of course. Say, Dickie, I can go In hero Just as well Don't worry, old man! I don't mind In the least." "All serene! Here, Ethel, you can Bheltcr this carrlagcless Joe " And Dickie flow off to see thnt such "mi -lessness as the best man's being stranded" was not repeated. "Ethel," mused Harrington as the rubber wheels started, leaning forwnitl and devouring her with his cjes. "Ethel! It suits so admirably I might almost have known. Madeleine only told me Mls Harman " I ino red-brown eyes met his Bquarely. "Joe." she said meditatively. "Yes. I like It. Sho only told me, Mr. Harrington." "You came ?" "Only this afternoon." "Why have you never come before?" "I didn't know there was anything to come for." As she spoke they flashed under nn nrc lamp, and, bending eagerly toward her. he caught tho shine of her eyes. It wns enough His hands Kropcd nn lnstnnt, then gathered In her two warm, jlelding ones "Oh, girl, girl!" he whispered exultlng ly "I knew the moment I saw you thnt you had come for my sake! But how, how have I lived nil this wIiMa on ,,.,- found you?" "I cannot tell, clear, only that now Is the right time," was the low response. Holding both her hands, in one of his own, he slipped to her side nnd tipped her head back against his shoulder Hla eyes sought hers In the gloom of the carriage, glorying In the reflations brought by the passing lights. "The right time of all the world, girl of all the years that have been for you and for me-tho right time for the seal of the promise for those that are to como for us," he said with quiet intensity, his lips closing on her unresisting ones. After a moment she straightened her self with a happy little laugh. "I think we must be nearly there." "Yes Wretchedly short drive. Oh, glrllo, girlie, I am so proud of you, so glad' What will they think of us, to bo sure? I wasn't having a bit of a good time, and now I'm ever so grateful that Bob Insisted on making mo best man " "Why. but dear!" It was avertible gurgle of astonishment. "You're not dreaming of telling' now? It would never, never do. We've not even been Intro duced! I'm to be here several weeks, you know, and It must come to pass verv gradually." y "I suppose so, bless your proper little heart! But Isn't It a wee bit more un conventional to have It happen thus than that It should merely be known of? Any way I promise to be the most persistently lovelorn of any swain who ever aspired to fair lady's hand. Ah! here we are." Fortunately, the avenue was we)l shad ed Just before the blaze of light at the steps was reached. Dickie greeted them (how he had man aged to pass them a certain team might have borne breathless testimony) In an agony of contrition. His very first blun der, He supposed, of course, they'd met Clarissa had come alone Madeleine had been Investigating and wrenched from" him the. whole sad tale. Clarissa wouldn't say a word. They sweetly forgave him and were smilingly introduced. During the ensuing hours of the recep tlon Harrington, Ingenious to the point of bjuntness, found use for all his skill as a dissembler. The auburn head was an irresistible magnet, and his telltale eyes followed where his feet were for bidden to tread. Again and again he dragged himself back to the daffodil maid and his proper duty, to find her always mysteriously smiling at him out of a quizzical face. It was hard that the first madly happy hours of one's life should b made to speed so slowly; but at last the bride and groom were oft In a shower or rce, kisses and merry cries. Then quoth the maid -of the daffodils to Dickie, "Do look at Joe and Ethel !' There they stood, on the top step hand In band, placidly and absently waving after the disappearing carriage with their disengaged hands. The other two mem bers were clasped. It was three. Interminable months before Harrington was permitted to announce a farewell dinner to his bachelor "friends. When he reached the club on the memor able night, a letter awaited him bearing the familiar fpreign postmark of Mr. and Mrs. Blake's honeymooning nest Qver the signature of Madeleine Blake he read the following! t "Bless j,ou, my children!

For, no matter how beau tiful tho flowers may be, their correct ar rangement with an eyo to color and ar tistic effect Is most Important. Reds an! purples, for Instance, If grouped together without thought as to effect In shades, etc., will spoil a garden and give It a garish look that Is not to be desired. Another matter which Is frequently overlooked Is a lack of sufficient greon in a garden. The natural environment of n plant Is green, and there is little chance that the amount of this color bo overdone. Too many of the public gardens and parks show a lack of green growing amidst the brilliance of the flowers. Col ored bedding plants are crowded together and stand out harshly. They would look Infinitely better were they against a soft background of green but many otherwise proficient gardeners will not understand this fact. Properly separated by green, colors can be used near each other which would clash dreadfully were they brought Im mediately together. Take, for example, a red bed; .there are tew pure red flowers. Thp varieties tun from scarlet and crim son and orange red to the blulph tints of magenta nnd solferlno It will bo easily seen, then, then If these are all mixed heedlessly the effect will be discordant. But if red is used as the leading note, and there be plenty of green to separate the plants, the border may gradually merge Into yellow reds and purplish reds with wonderful and satisfying effect. Some light and airy plants, such as the garden heliotrope, meadow rue, caraway and wild carrot, will Improve the scheme. It must be remembered that. Just as Romewas not built In a day, neither Is a successful garden worked up In even one season! This Is the mistake, which so many amateurs make. They expect that the plants will grow with the rapid ity of the famous fairy-tale beanstalk, nnd that In one night everything will show results. The wise gardener must remember that Infinite patience and con stant watching and study are necessary for the cultivation of a fine garden. As regards the placing of plants, tall plants should be placed toward the back' or the bed, while the smaller ones come forward. Or If a circular arrangement Is desired, tho tall plants, go In the centre and the smaller ones are arranged around In a circle, The wise gardener Bhould own a note book and all sorts of notes should be entered with reference to the plants. For Instance, while plants are still In bloom, a note should be entered of any .change to be made In the fall. Most perennials are benefited by occasional lifting, though shrubs are, of course, an exception to this rule. " The use of ferns improves the look of a garden Immensely, An ugly, corner In a garden can be made to look perfectly beautiful If a few ferns nre planted against a background of stones. Small Blabs of rock, with earth placed In be tweemand large atones iarranged artisti cally around will be a fine bed for ferns, and wll.prese,nt a cool, delightful appear ance. If there Is by chance any little pool or stream In your garden, ferns should be planted nearby. Many delightful varieties can be ob tained In the woods and wU transplant very nicely. If the soil Is rich, ferns will stand a full sun. Ferns should really be taken from the woods In early spring, but .they may be transplanted successfully In midsummer, It they are carefully shaded for the first few days and also well supplied with water. -, , The hop vine Is another useful plant which can easily be transplanted and always looks well. It festoons around and over wall, trellis or arbor with its pale green calyxes, For use In a more severe climate, the Virginia creeper Is popular, also If the Situation bappens to be exposed. At ,flrBt U takes a little time to get estab listed, but once is under way there is no limit to Its growth. It requires certain things, such as severe pruning frL5UtUmn: ?ome aun' ,otl f fwtlllz, ng and a, certain amount of water. But It Is so beautiful that It repays one for arty trouble taken, and It Improves the appearance of any garden or wall oj arbor Immensely.
