BOULEVARD MOTOR RULES
TWO outstanding meter traffic rules are
enforced by the I'nrk Commission en the
Falrmeunt drive-.. One Is drawn te pro
hibit the use of smoking mo'ercars In the
Park. The ether puts n strict limitation en
"parking." especially after nightfall. With
he extension of the Park Commission" au
thority te the new boulevards these rules
fcve been applied automatically en thee
pen thoroughfares. Se objections have
'turally risen which will be aired tomorrow
it n 'hearing arranged by the I'nrk Commis
sioners at the request of residents of the
Roosevelt Boulevard region.
It is unfair, of course, for the commls cemmls commls
aleners or any one lse te deny tin right of
resident en a large and roomy thorough
fare te park his machine nt his own cuib.
There is no need for nny ironclad parking
restriction en the Iloescvelt lleiilevsini. IJut
there is full justification for the (itnnilslun
rule against smoking automobiles, The
meke from a badly adjusted gasoline 'iigine
is ruinous te shrubbery :ind bad for the jen

gence In the owner or driver of the faulty
machine. In enforcing this rule en the

THE VANITY OF MAN
EFFOItTS of the sophomore class in the
"University of Pennsylvania te bring
about the ndoptlen of kniekerbeckcrs are
temporarily blocked by the objeetien of the
bow-legged students. They are loath te
banden the full-length trousers which con
ceal their curves.
This manifestation of vanity would net
have been possible a century or two age,
when knee -breeches were worn universally.
Franklin were them, se did Washington,
and se did all their contemporaries. And
for formal occasions the breeches were made
f silk or velvet and no one complained or
ridiculed, as Colonel Harvey has been ridi
culed for wearing knee-breeches at the wed
ding of Princess Mnry In Londen.
Before the knee-breeches cnine into fash
ion long hose were worn covering the whole
leg and revealing all its irregularities. The
hese of the rich went silk and thoe of the
peer were woolen. If it were proposed te
go far enough baek for the precedent, it
could be understood why the University stu
dent might ebjeet te the adoption of the
costume of the fifteenth or the sixteenth
century: but why there should be objection
te the costume of Franklin it is difficult te
Understand en any ether theory than that the
students with peer legs are tee vain te
wish te exhibit them.
New the flappers with their short skirts
but that Is something else again.
MRS. VAN WINKLE
THERE are two cities of Washington
the visible and the invisible. One is the
brightly lit stnge upon which the great
figures of politics and diplomacy move mera
or Icsh impressively and speak their IIiiph
and recite ancient platitudes and occasion
ally de noble things. The ether Is a com cem com
unltyef fertunntc adventurers, of moneyed,
well-dressed, well-fed, mysterious men, who

. Thee groups are various and Innumerable,
and their representatives, tipsters, spies,

horde. A great deal of money passes
through their hands. They live high. And
they are the peeple who seem te have been

NO PORTENTS ATTEND THE
PASSING OF A MOCK CAESAR
The Death of Charles Hapsburg In Smit
ing Madeira Adds the Crowning Irony
te the Tale of a Hapless and Out Out
Meded Dynast
firnlW heavens themselves blaze forth the
death of princes." Caesar's wife, and
i-ensequently nbeve suspicion, was net nlene
in this belief, of which there was te her swift
continuation In the most famous assassina
tion of all history. The celestial obbligato
was impressive. Thunder- shook the cupltel.
The earth trembled. With appropriate ges
tures great Julius fell.
In the absence of detailed reports from
Madeira, it may be nssumed that the Usiinl
delightful weather prevailed in thnt Insular
paradise which was the pleasant place of
exile of the dying Hapsburg. Perhaps the
modern heavens "are democratized ; perhaps
merely Indifferent.
Whatever the cause, It Is certain that
little relationship can be traced between
their moods and the wreck of thrones or the
fate of obsolete monarchies. Something
mere than the passing of a King in needed
te ruffle modern skies, even though he be a
Caesar.
Fer such, according te :i strained but
onee potent theory, Charles Hapsburg was.
If his death Is of comparatively blight prac
tical importance historically, it Is fraught
with solemn significance.
"That race," declared a recent commen cemmen commen
t.iter In appraising the Hapsburg line, "is a
mad and sanguinary anachronism.'' Yet it
nun thnt race which four centuries nge
dominated both the old eastern and the
new-found western worlds.
Charles the Fifth has been called eery
inch an emperor. According te sixteenth
century standards, the nscrlptlen is justified.
That singular hypothesis, the Hely Reman
Kmpire, designed te irnltat" the mastery of
the Caesars, was quickened Inte new reality
tinder Charles Hapsburg, virtual lord of
Kurepc. King of Spain, through his father's
marriage with the weak-minded heiress of
Ferdinand and Isabella; ruler of Germany,
dictator of the destinies of Italy, conqueror
of Tunis, Inheritor of the Netherlands and
claimant of all the vast Americas save
lirazll.
However perverted and untimely, senie of
the invulnerable pride ami aristocracy of
the Hapsburg is understandable, lle-idc
this line the HolifniselleriH arc eliinbers,
pcivenus. up-tnrts.
Hut the new world, whiih in the deepest
sense is without seegraphlial division, is
Impatient with mere -oueleusnc$ of the
accident of birth. King--, unless shrewd
enough te sae their faces by voluntary cf
fac"mcnt or by the exhibition of forthright
qualities of uitlrenhlp, lire profoundly dis
credited. Geerge of Great IJrltniii is an amiable
symbol ; Victer Emmanuel of Italy a con
stitutional leader of some ability, and Al Al
foneo of Spain an Indirect descendant of
the Ilnpsburgs, by the wa retains his
throne largely through personal charm.
It Is as men, net iih ineunrclis, that these
three surviving royal rulers of major Euro
pean nations are tolerated. The ScandW
navinn Kings are citizens in fine robes, suit
able for pageantry or dedication ceremonies.
Tt was the misfortune of the Hapsburgs,
undistinguished In the main for notable gifts
either of the mind or heart, te remain per
sistently unresponsive) te the march of civ
ilization. Fer nt least a century and a half
the chronicle of the HnpsburgH is dark nnd
terrible. Uneulightenment rnthur than de
liberate tyranny was their bane.
The fates have been remorseless. The
record Is ensanguined with murders, sui
cides, nssas'-lnatlens, slilpw recked dynasties
and acute persennl griefs and miseries.
Marie Antoinette, slain en the altar of
impulsive and irresistible democracy ; the
Empress Elizabeth, perhaps the least cul
pable of the deemed heuxi, assassinated ;
Maximilian, executed for a mad attempt te
implant medievalism in the Western Hem
isphere; Crown Prince Rudelph, suicide in
a sensual orgy; Archduke Jehn Nepomuck,
of destiny unknown; Archduke Ferdinand,
whose death provoked a world cataclysm;
Charles, bungling aspirant for a vanished
threne ever an evaporated empire these are
a few of the many tragic figures which
crowd the poignant romnnce of the hapless
Hapsburgs.
The last adult of the line was in certain
respects a pitiable figure. Apparently in
capable of accommodating himself te nctunl
conditions, his end amid the sunlight and
Bewers of Madeira Is exquisitely ironical.
Philosophers mny discern an application of
tlw doctrine of nteucmnnt in the descent
and prolonged degeneration of the Haps
burgs. It is net easy te conceive that, lave, for a
handful of Infatuated reactionaries, the chil
dren of Charles ever will provide inspiration
for royalist activities of any consequence.
After 700 years the curtnin falls en the
Hapsburg. The death of Charles, although
it provokes no stir, Is in a sense a relief.
The heavens under the new dispensation are
smiling, implacable.
MAKE WAY FOR ART
AN INCENTIVE te artistic consciousness

gram for Art Week which will be celebrated
in this city from April L'2 te April ). The
spur te self-rcullzatlen along esthetic lines is
thoroughly justified and the stigma some

net be feared.
Athens and Florence, foremast urban

The promoters of Philadelphia Art Week

Such is the interesting program In prepa
ration. Reth In Its objects nnd Its character
It differs markedly from the sort of cam
paigning prevalent In American cities with
a bent toward what is called material
progress. '
Everything In its place. Philadelphia has
been long and rightfully aware of Its In
dustrial eminence. Trim art is seldom

The laurels of Philadelphia In the art
field arc honorable and authentic. Civic nc
knewledgment of this fact will he refresh
ing and entirely in order.
LODGE AND LONDON
COLONEL HARVEY will hnve te make
a wero break than nny of which he has
been guilty before President Harding will
recall him from Londen.
Mr. Harding appointed Ihe colonel against
the advice of his friends because the colonel
wanted the efiice and because he had been
useful in the campaign. It wan the kind of
an appointment which every President tins
mnde. Mr. Harding is a friendly man, tol
erant of the peculiarities of ethers. It was
his human side which dictated the Harcy
appointment.
This docs net justify It, however. The
colonel was net n worthy successor of the
distinguished men who have filled the pest,
and since ha tins been in Louden he has net
exhibited nny remarkable diplomatic apti
tude. Men lu touch with the British capital
are saying that the early recall of Harvey Is
expected there, and reasons for it nre given
which will net 8UTprla these acquainted
with him here. Hut It is likely that he will
be ullewcd te held en until he gets rendy te
come home unless he makes he serious a
break that he will have te be removed.
The suggestion of Senater Ledge as a
possible successor te Harvey Is doubtless
mnde In order te see hew the country will
take it. Considerable opposition te the re
election of the Scnnter bus developed in
Massachusetts. He will he seventy-two
yenr.s old in Mny, nnd would be seventy
eight when Ills term expired if he were re
elected. It is conceivable that he would
like te letlre from the Senate and spend the
ne.t few jenri lu the Ameilcan Embassy In
Londen. He has been a member of the
Committee en Foreign Affairs for a long
time and its chairman since the Republicans
came Inte control of the Senate. If ap
pointed he would enter the diplomatic ?erv ?erv
ice with a better equipment than l.s common.
But Ledge in Londen would cause the
cynical te smile. There hns been no mere
persistent twister of the lien's tail in
American public llfe.fer the last generation
than lie. These, familiar with the ancestry
of a large group of Bosten and Massachu
setts voters liuve assumed that the Senater's
official attitude toward Great Britain was
dictated by considerations of political ex
pediency, and that the-e same considerations
were lu part responsible for his attitude
toward the Versailles Treaty. New, te Send
nn Anglophobe te Louden te strengthen the
ties of friendship between England and
America might be successful. It certainly
would lie audacious, and it might also be
the most tubile kind of domestic politics.
ANTI-HATE
HA'l E, deliberately organized, has become
thu newest of political und economic
weapons. Hut hate is a destructive force.
It begets hatred. That is why the lirsti
statement of ptincipled of Alansen R.
Houghten, the new American Ambassador
te Germany, has a most refreshing sound.
Mr. Houghten isn't going te take any manu
factured hate with him te Berlin. He has
no faith in it. He Is convinced that it can
de no geed. And of course he is right.
Much of the hate prevalent In Europe has
been mail's te order by politicians. The,
masses of the plain people, the driven mul
titudes in nil the affected countries, nre help
less victims of this meutal poison. They
inny yet have te bleed for it ngiiln. It Is
possible te held the Germans te their obli
gations without perpetuating hatred against
nil of them. And It is true, as Mr. Hough Hough
eon observes, that the hater will inevitably
suffer mere from his hatred than the hntee.
It Is about time that, the world cleared
Its mind of the remnants of some of the mere
reckless war propaganda and remembered
that there are women nnd children In Ger
many nnd a new generation, and that some
thing must be left of that Mist liberal and
democratic element that would imve bet up
a real democratic government In Germany
within a very few jears If it hudn't been
deliberately overwhelmed nnd mnrtyred Jn
the wHr.
A FEATURE OF THE FAIR
THE enterprise of the Pullman Company
In premising an extensive exhibit at the
fair of 10-0 is replete with interest. In all
great international expositions displays of
agencies of transportation hnve bicn con
spicuous fentures. Visitors te the Centen
nial of 1870 were fascinated by the locomo
tive section typifying the marvels of railway
pregreu. It we'uld be amusing te study ene
of thew mennrchs of the stiel read today
watch-chain te.s compared with their huge
Impressive descendants. An Instructive ex
hibit of passenger-conch development also
could be mndp. Vestibules were virtually
unknown in the Centennial age. All-steel
conches were decades from existence.
Anether chapter in the history of railway
rolling stock wan emphasized at the Colum
bian Fair In Chicago, where the gayly
painted English compartment carriage were
found surprisingly comfortable and net with
out n certain quaint charm.
It Is presumed that the leading foreign
railways will be represented nt the Sesqul
Centennial, and interesting comparisons will
naturally be made with the thoroughly
standardized, large and solidly built Ameri
can "corridor" coaches. The progress of
sleeping cars nnd such changes as liuve been
effected In night travel will, of course, be
accentuated. Everybody can remember the
barbarous pigeon-holing of passengers in
constricted upper and lower berths, the In
convenience of lavatory "facilities," the
difficulties of' undressing and dressing in
crnmped quarters, the meager ventilation,
the waiting In line in the aisles. The public
will unquestionably be eager te note basle

The Making of a Qardan Furnlshst
Anether Illustration of the Fact
That What Yeu Qlve Yeu Get
Bjr SARAH D. LOWRIE
I SAW n most Ingenious toy the ether day
that n woman hnd made te Illustrate the
vnrleus stages her garden hnd gene through
before It became the charming nnd complete
thing that it Is. It was ft small model made
out of painted cardboard thnt would fit en
an ordinary sized kitchen table. She poured
sand ever the tnble nnd patted out the ter
races and vnrleus slopes of the surface, nnd
this was covered with a green felt cloth.
Upen the green ground the vnrleus parts of
the garden were placed, from the uummer
house nt ene end te the wall and tree vista
nt the ether end, with the flowered terrace,
the peel, the parterre and shrubs and trees
nnd paths nil dena in miniature nnd rendy
In be put down or lifted up and. put down
some ether place as the fancy might suggest.
Te her nil these separate parts were sepa
rate chapters in the history of hrr garden.
Fer the tiling had grown little by little and
had needed much adjusting before it settled
into Its final shape. It would have been
difficult for any ene who had net known it
in its various stages te be sure what came
first, or what had been the finishing touch
te that garden ; but one thing wna very ap
parentit had the same characteristics which
marked its owner. It wan a comfertnblo
garden, and she was n most comfertnblo per
son. It had certain exaggerations, certain
unfulfilled aspects, as though It had been
sketched in places and never filled out, but
mnde the best of with a kind of amused
geed temper, as though its owner said of it
nnd of herself: "Oh. give us time te im
prove and meantime let's enjoy the view."
THE plants had nn nir of having grown
where they pleased and when they
pleased and being cheerful, but rather so-se
of their kind; nnd the owner said they were
exactly like her bcrvants, self-indulgent nnd
very obliging, most agreeable nnd rather
untidy.
She was showing us the little model, net
with n view te illustrating -her own idiosyn
crasies, but te prove that no two persons
will urrnnge n plot of ground alike, for as
she held piece after piece of the garden
make-up in her hand walls, rocks, terraces,
peels, scats, trees, flowers, shrubs, bteps,
eta she bade us onlookers guess where they
went, or, if some of us knew, oho bade ns
say where 'we would prefer them. And It
was qulte true we seldom agreed about any
thing. She snld that that had been true of her
own family, se much se thut from the first,
even though the garden was hers, she had
had te muke each change against opposition
rather than with co-epcrntlon.
Seme ene asked her hew she had had the
perscverance te go ahead. And she replied
quite gravely that the garden had been a
llfe-navcr te her in mere tlinn eue respect.
She was just ene of n large family, and her
mother was a notable manager and her
father a master of his property by convic
tion rather than accident ; thnt is, he called
everything "my." even the dining-room
tabic. She snld that as a girl she did net
hnve a bureau nor n chair of her own, much
less u room, but this garden that had been
n waste and rough slope en the back let was
given Inte her keeping and acknowledged te
be hers. She said it was the only thing
except her bits of jewelry and n few books
and her clothes that she owned until she
was ever thirty, and thnt it meant every
thing te her both as n possession and as a
thing te plun for nnd work with. She in
sisted that it had eaed her from being nn
old maid. She hnd worked out se many
repressions and worked in se many big. com
fertable realizations ns she dug und delved
there. She affirmed that If she had made
the garden, the garden had returned the
compliment by making her.
SOMETIMES I wonder if gaidening would
net be the best cure that the world pro
vides for impatient and even sick nnd sad
feiiN. I knew by cvpericnen thnt it is a
perfect cure for a jaded, impatient mind
and for a nervous, fagged body.
The mere jerking out of the things thnt
have arrogated te themselves a place un
asked In the garden is an exercise thnt gain
rid of many a grudge that has fettered one'a
spirit. "Out you go, you great sucker!
What business have you te cat the chil
dren's bread? Ah, liul Yeu InsidieiiB, creep
ing, choking runner, come out of this! T
knew you for what you are. though you try
te leek like one of my seedlings. Yeu have
crept in here under cover of the dark ! New
see here, grass! Nene of this! Your place
is en thujawn. You've mistaken your va
cation. Yeu could net grew a flower If you
lived here all summer, nnd you knew it.'"'
It Is a great relief te speak te the in
truders in your garden thut are called weeds
ns you would like te but mey net speak te
the intruders In your life thnt nre culled
enemies. Then, as little by little the ground
Is cleared of Its living obstructions and n
breathing space is made for the seedlings
nnd the sprouting perennials, the ether side
of you, the protecting, grateful, hopeful side.
gets a chance. Even tjie little seedlings thnt
you hnve te thin out te give room for the
ones that are te grew lustily in the enlarged
space have little entitles in your mind nnd
you feel sorry for them that thev are se
arbitrarily chosen net te live, nnd you
scratch about lu some less crowded pnrt of
the garden te give them a chance nt the sun
and niln, te Mower if they ran. And the
perennials that have been winter hurt or
that have ceme en tee fnst for the reluctant
spring te warm them, you coax along as
you would u sick animal that hu.s grown old
in your company.
I
AM never se much interested In my

ceme te enjoy it that I enjoy most. I very

hnd a garden I noticed thnt the owners of
gardens or their gardeners always picked
the flowers te be given away. They obvi
ously wished te preserve the symmetry of
the garden and yet nppear generous. They
always left the (lowers en the stems that I
particularly admired, and they never picked
the bouquet in the proportions that seemed
te me desirable. Se when I came te have n
garden I took for my share the fun of grow
ing the flowers, and gave away the eholce of
picking them te the garden's visitors, from
the littlest baby te my mother.
The littlest baby nnd my mother picked
their bemftiets just alike very large flowers
with very short steins. .Sometimes it would
mean n Illy or a rose that was exceedingly
effectUe glowing just where it was, but
though I held my breath ut the choice I
never Interfered once I had offered the hoa hea
pitnllty of the place. I thought, "If the baby
grows up she will think of tills garden aa a
royal giver of itself!"
Curiously enough, the time my garden la
most generous te me is net In summer, when
it Is all premise or nil bloom, hut In tb
winter and very early spring before a tengue
of green shows above the ground; about this
time of the year, when the seed catalogues
are things i te ponder ever and you wonder
If the bulbs hnve steed the zero weather in
February. Fer what the garden stands for
te me is hope. And hope is a better youth
preserver than any beauty lotion can recom
mend, and I am triumphant te find tbnt It
comes dancing through my winter-worn
garden before there Is the least touch of
spring in the air and rejoices my heart with
wliat may be, if the spring nnd I only have
luck and the seed catalogues only tell a third
of the truth.

DR. MARTHA TRACY
On a Balanced Diet
A DIET made up of the proper feed de
ments is just as cssentlnl te geed health
as feed in sufficient quantities, according
te lr. Martha I). Tracy, dean of the
Weman's Medical College aud an acknowl
edged authority en dietetics.
"A great many children are undernour
ished," said Dr. Tracy, "and tills condition
results as frequently, if net mere se, from
Jgimruiieu en the part of the parents as te
what the child should cat as it does from
poverty. Children, especially, should have
much fruit and milk ns an csscntinl part
of their diet. Beth the parents and the
children themselves should.be given the phys
ical reason for the diet recommended te
them.-nnd we have found thnt they fellow
the Instructions much" mere willingly and
effectively when they knew why they nre.
doing It. They should knew what feed is
for and what certain feeds accomplish in
the body.
"A child which is undernourished cannot
by nny possibility be be efficient as would
be the case if it were properly fed. Me:t
adolescent girls de net cat sufficient feed,
and often whnt they de eat is net of the
right kind : the result is that most of them
are only from 50 per cent te 70 per cent
efficient in their studies or work.
Definite Purposes of Feed
"One of the great points which should
be impressed upon peeple is that feed serves
definite purposes In the body. There nre
sevcrnl of these uiceifie kinds of feed. Tim
first is that which Is transformed into tis
sue, bone, etc., nnd In tills clabs ceme the
meals and certain of the heavier feeds. The
second class is that which produces energy.
These feeds ure net transformed into tis
sue, but nre used up In very much the sumo
maimer ns an engine burns its fuel; they
are translated into heat and used up. The
bodily tissues cannot be properly built up
nnd the energy necessary te de work be
created without the right kind of feed,
"The chief tlssue-bulldlng feeds nre meat,
eggs and milk, together with certain vege
tables. The vegetable proteins nre physi
ologically incomplete nnd net equivalent te
the. proteins of animal meats. Te give the
body a sufficient amount of proteins from
vegetables alone an enormous quantity must
be eaten, nnd the persen who fellows n strict
vegetarian diet thus has his eholce between
net getting nn adequate amount of proteins
or of getting indigestion through over
eating. A strict vegetable diet, te be effec
tive, must be rc-enferced by milk and eggs.
"The chief energy-producing feeds are the
starches, sugar and fats. This matter of the
relative feed values is net guesswork; it
has been scientifically demonstrated. The
eung. vigorous udult person uses up nbeiit
1000 heat units n day doing absolutely
nothing. If he works or moves about much
there must be a proportionate increase in
these units,
.Matt' Youths Undernourished
"But in spite of this obvious fnct there
are many young persons who ncqulre through
their feed only from l.lOO te 1800 cnlerles
a day. They cannot expect te de vigorous
work en this amount, nnd it cannot be ex
pected of them. Seventy per cent of this
group are peer In their work.
"Nature's pretest against such conditions
takes the form' of it less of weight. The
body, deprived of the right amount of feed,
drnws upon its own tissues te supply energy.
The humnn body is different therein from
n locomotive. The latter steps when Its fuel
is exhausted, but the body burns up Itself
until the point Is reached where the heart
and respiratory organs step from Innnltlen.
"One of the main troubles In this arti
ficial civilization of ours Is that we have
developed false appetites. We eat at all
hours of the day, nibbling between meals,
nnd when the time comes when real feed Is
set befere us there Is no appetite, and little
of the needed feed Is eaten.
"Anether very important factor In the
matter of feed 1; that of the vltamines.
Thcbe consist of feed which does net seem
te be used, lu the building of tissues ,!

system witli regularly . Just what effects
they produce we de net yet definitely knew,
but health and strength suffer severely if
they nre lacking in thu general feed scheme.
"There nre three sets of these vltamines
nnd three sits of conditions arise when they
are emitted from the feed. The first of these
vltamines is known as fat soluble A, and it
is found in butter fats, leafy vegetables
Mich ns spinach, lettuce, etc., and in egg egg
jelk. A very little of It is also found in
tin- root vegetables with yellow pigment,
such as carrots nnd sweet potatoes. It is
also found in milk. A young animal will
