My plain talk to young men In my

Bowels Get Weak
A.s A-ge Advances
The First Necessity is to
Keep the Bowels Gently
Open With a Mild
Laxative Tonic
Healthy old ago is so absolutely de
pendent upon the condition of the
bowels that great caro should be taken
to see that they act regularly. Tho fact
Is that as age advances tho stomach
muscles become weak and Inactive
nnd the liver does not storo up tho
juices that are necessary to prompt
digestion.
Somo help can be obtained by eat
ing easily digested foods and by
plenty of exercise, but this latter Is
irksome to most elderly people. One
thing is certain, that a state of con
stipation should always bo avoided as
it Is dangerous to life and health. The
best plan is to take a mild laxative
as often as Is deemed necessary. But
with equal certainty It is suggested
that cathartics, purgatives, physics,
salts and pills be avoided, as they do
but temporary good and aro so harsh
as to be a shock to a delicate system.
A muph better plan, and one that
thousands of elderly people aro follow
ing, is to take a gentle laxative-tonic
like Dr. Cnldwell's Syrup Pepsin,
which acts as nearly like naturo as is
possible. In fact, tho tendency of this
remedy is to strengthen tho stomach
and bowel muscles and so train them
to act naturally again, whon medicines
of nil kinds can usually bo dispensed
with. Thh is tho opinion of many
people of different ages, among them
Mr. O. P. Miller, Baroda, Mich., who
writes: "I am 80 years old and havo
been constipated for many years. Since
receiving your samplo bottle I havo

LOOK AFTER FLOWER PLANTS IN CELLAR
A Study
(By KIIUK U RKXI'ORD )
Frequently wo Iobo our dahlias,
and cannaa because we neglect to
glvo them attention. Wo tako It
for granted that they aro "all right"
and hy-and-by wo discover that they
aro "all wrong." It does not tnko long
to destroy these tubers after a dis
eased condition has sot In Tho thing
to do Is to watch them so closely
that tho first Indications of trouble
are seen, and prompt measures may
bo taken to prevent development.
In too damp and cold a cellar tho
tubers become moldy, and this means
decay, a little later on.
When tho first touch of mold is
seen movo tho tubors to a warmer
location.
I do this by spreading them out on
swinging racks of wiro netting, sus
pended midway between tho floor and
tho colling, first going over them, ono
by one, and removing every portion
that shows any sign of being moldy.
Spread them out In such a manner
that they will not touch ono anothor.
If tho troublo continues, It Tiny bo
advlsablo to removo them from tho
cellar, wrap each root In papor, and
Btoro in a frost-proof closet, or cup
board. But, generally, a place near
tho celling will bo sufficient to prevent
a spread of tho disease.
Stono cellars aro so dry and warm
that tho tubers wither in them, or
start Into growth at a season when
growth means ultlmato ruin. In such
cases, it is well to give them a placo
on tho floor, In a dark corner, or, If
(tho temperature cannot be kept down,
remove thorn to a cooler place, above
ground.
Tho man who has duo regard for
the welfaro of his vegetables will
never allow his collar to become warm
enough to encourago growth during
Night Blooming Cereus, opening un
der electric light at night. The
camera was exposed 30 minutes
and the flower Is shown In various
stages of blossoming.
t' o winter season, and the ventilation
which is glvon, with a view of keoplng
vegetables In good condltlpn, will very
likely provo. equally bonellclal to nil
tubers stored therein.
Plants In pots, or tubs, should be
kept quite dry. Not exactly dust
dry, but still so dry that thero is
but little evidence of molsturo ir. the
soil, when tho hand Is used as a test
If water wero to bo appllod while
the plants aro In cold storage quite
likely premature growth would re
sult, and this Is Just what wo do not
want to happen. The aim should be
to keep the cellar-stored plants per
fectly dormant, by keeping thorn cool,
nnd dry, and In the dark.
Tho window garden ought to bo
showing some rlowcrs this month,
especially tho geraniums. Give them
tho sunnlost place. They need strong
light Ij bring out their rich eolers
fully.
It Is a good plan to put tho tall
plants at tho BldeB of the window,
with tho smaller ones between. In
this way ull get an equal chance at
tho sunshine. Wo aro generally so
anxious to show off our largost plants,
that wo glvo thera front places, and
the smaller ones havo to tako up
such light as thoy can get.
This Is not fair to tho llttlo fol
lows. In order to do their host, thoy
must bo given Just as good treatment
as tho others rocolvo. If favoritism is
practicod in tho window garden, wo
must expect our plants to bo of vary
ing merit.
In Iris.
I If any plants become sick, removo
! them at onco.
Their disease may not bo conta
gious, but It is not good policy to kcop
sick plants togcthor, for ench will
need a dlfforent troatmont, and ono
Hint cannot bo given satisfactorily
while they nro togothcr.
If a plant appears unhealthy and 1
cannot diagnose Its troublo 1 allow It
to become rather dry nnd remain in
that condition for somo tlmo.
On no account glvo any fertilizer.
In many cases tho plant will recover
Its health after a period of onforcod
rest.
If It docB not seem likely to do this,
throw it out. Wo cannot nfford to
mako plant hospitals of our living
room windows.
Nino times out of ten hanging plants
suffor from lack of water. Because
of thotr suspension, it is not an easy
matter to get nt thorn to wntor them,
and this leads to neglect on our part.
Keep hunglng-plants as well wa
tered as thoso In tho window sill, and
thoy will grow Just as luxuriantly.
You may start planning and doing
for next summer's display, by making
cuttings during tho winter.
If a goranlum sends out an ambiti
ous shoot, mako a cutting of It If
the shoots appear too thickly upon
any part of tho plant cut them off.
or, at least, tho crowding ones. Of
ten shoots appear at tho baso of tho
plant, nnd these should bo removed
whon thoy destroy tho symmetry of
tho plant.
Don't lot tho tompernturo got too
high and too dry, or tho red spider
will appear.
Iho Genista, with Its abundnnt pea
shaped blossoms of gold, is easy of
cultivation. Its flowers aro vory fra
grant. It requires lots of moisture, ut
root, and top. It likes plenty of liquid
manuro, when In flowe
If you try to crowd too many plants
In a small window, you will bo disap
pointed with tho results, and tho
plants will not do well. Ono well
developed plant will glvo far moro
satisfaction than n dozen sick ones.
Tlnro aro people who believe that
that which nourishes humans will do
tho same for tho plants. Hence, thoy
feed their plants with enstor oil!
Nothing could .o moro absurd and
usolcss.
Thero are three things to observo
In raising follago plants, like ferns
and palms, givo them plenty of light
and little direct sunshine Don't glvo
them too much water, and neither too
llttlo water.
A friend says that tho small yellow
ants, which had been troubling her
violets, wero routed by two applica
tions of tobacco water. She soaked a
plug of chewing tobneco In a quart of
water overnight In tho morning sho
used n tooth brush to apply the to
bacco water to tho under sldo of tho
leaves and tho soil about tho plants
Sometimes, when wo do not get nt
them, moro of tho water wo apply
ruus off than on, nnd tho soil bo
comes dry In a short tlmo.
It Is it good plan to have the basket
suspended by a cord running on a
pulley In tho colling Tho end of tho
cord enn be fastened to a hook In
the wall, or the window frame.
It Is nn easy matter to lower tho
basket Into a tub of water, once a
week, or as often ns may seem neces
sary. Allow It to, remnln In tho tub
until It has absorbed all tho water it
can take up.
Of courao, Hjcre will be n great
deal of drip from It after It has
been raised from tho tub, but tho
lover of plants will not mind this.
Productive Hens.
Mrs. Calo S. Myers, Westmoreland
county, Pa., reports as follows: "Tho
product from our S. C. Rhode Island
Red hens, 27fi in the flock, for Decern
her, 1012, was 2,148 eggs For tho
year It wns 38.5SI eggs. Any ono
doubting tho figures may como out to
tho farm. Wo havo tho credentials to
show them."
Age to Breed Gilts.
Let tho gilts grow till thoy aro at
least 12 months old boforo breeding
thorn. Holng nearer maturity thoy
will rnlao stronger, moro virilo pigs
develop Into much moro doslrablo
bows and possess a greater capacity
for milk.
