That is tho thought bo often expressed
in letters recommending Lydia B. Pink
ham's Vegetable Compound. Theso wo
men know what they havo suffered, they
describe their symptoms and state how
they wero finally made well. Just plain
statements, but they want other women
to be helped.
Lydia E. Pinkham'a Vegctablo Com
pound is a medicino made from medi
cinal roots and herbs, and without drugs,
to relieve the sickness women do often
have, which is indicated by backacho,
weak feelings, nervousness, and no am
bition to get anything done or to go
anywhere. It has helped many women.
Why not try it?

"There goes Mrs. Blake 1" exclaimed
my friend. "I wonder how she likes
the work In a broker's ofllec?"
"Oh, she likes it fine, hut she's had a
hard time making n living," I replied.
"But that's tho way of It. Being n
banker's wife doesn't always mean you
have money, but you've got to pretend
you have anyway 1"
"That's right," said my friend, and
then I remembered what her hus

Not Really Remarkable.
"Do you know anything about
palmistry, Herbert?" she asked. "Oh,
not much," he answered, "although 1
had an experience last night which
flight be considered a remarkable ex
ample of palmistry. I happened to
glance at the hand of a friend, and
I Immediately predicted he would pres
ently become the possessor of n con
siderable amount of money. Before he
left the room lie had a nice little sum
handed to him." "And you foretold
that from his hand?" "Yes, It had
four aces In It."

THEOynAGEM
GROWING EARLY PLANTS IN BACKYARD HOTBED
S5SfJSKS5S
WmmXi m$ immi mMM,
Proper fclectiou of seeds with which
to plant a garden Is stressed by the
United States Deportment of Agricul
ture. It should be the aim of every
home gardener this year to grow a
hotter garden by making the most In
telligent use of the available space,
not only by employing better methods,
but by planting seeds of the highest
quality. The first cost of seeds Is
comparatively small, but It Is very Im
portant thnt the seeds planted should
he the very best obtainable.
Gardeners are advised to secure the
catalogues of reliable seed firms and
spend a little time In going over and
checking up the seeds that will be
needed for planting.
Do not be misled by the highly
colored and much-advertised novelties,
but stick to the standard, well-known
and proved varieties, advise the spe
cialists. Good seeds should never be
wasted, so figure carefully upon the
amount required and place your order
curly before the best stocks are ex
hausted. Perhaps the seeds enn be
bought from local dealers. If not, or
ders should go to a seed house In Home
neighboring city, so the seeds may be
received In ample time. When they
are received, unpnek and check them
to see that no part of the order has
been overlooked; then store the seeds
In n mouseproof, ventilated container,
such as a perforated tin box. They
should be kept in a moderate tempera
tine, and where they will not freeze
or be exposed to moisture.
Have Early Vegetables.
Half the pleasure and profit of a
garden is derived from having some
ttkjng to use Just as early In the spring
as possible. In many cities and towns
the local greenhouse men grow thou
sands of plants which are sold to
home gardeners at reasonable prices.
It often happens, however, that home
gardeners do not havo the opportunity
to purchase well-grown plants, and
must start their own supply of early
plants In the house or In n hotbed If
they desire to have their crops mature
cnrly. Among the garden crops that
inny be started to advantage In this
ninnner are tomatoes, early cuhhage,
peppers, eggplant nnd lettuce; even
cucumbers, melons, beets, snup henns,
limn beans nnd sweet corn may he
started Indoors by using fiowcr pots,
pnper hands, or berry boxes to hold
the soil.
Where the required number of plants
is too great for growing In window
boxes, n hotbed or culdfrume may be
provided. The usual method of con
structing a hotbed is first to dig a
TO HAVE AN INDOOR GARDEN
Make Your Basement Work for You
by Producing Vegetables Before
Outdoor Planting Tlrqe.
Nearly every cottage, as well as the
lurger houses and tho city bungalows,
are equipped with largo basements.
Many of these basements have hpace
that Is not utilized and many of them
havo excellent southern and eastern
exposures whereby the sun bus a
chance to play through the windows a
large portion of the day.
Make the basement work for you. It
Is an easy matter to havo a mlnluturo
greenhouse in most any basement
where there Is sufllclent heat to keep
the soli and plants from freezing. At
least, plants for setting out when tho
danger of frost Is past can bo easily
raised In the basement, nnd small
vegetables such as radishes, onions
nnd lettuce can be raised and eaten
by the owner long before It Is time to
plant such things outside.
If the window space In the base
ment Is sufllclent a long tray arrange
ment such as used In greenhouses may
he used for tho indoor garden. Such
a tiny will be sulllclent to produce a
good quantity of small vegetables un
til time to plant outsldo and at the
same time the tomato, pepper, cab
bage and other plants may bo started,
later to be transplanted to Individual
boxes for more intensive cultivation,
and to be ready to transplant In the
onen with large, healthy plants.

hhullow pit S to IS Inches deep, ac
cording to locality, nnd pack It full
of fermenting stable manure. The
manure, beforo being placed in the pit,
should be turned over once or twice
in a pile In order to Insure even heat
ing. It may then be packed Into tho
hotbed pit nnd tramped uniformly.
Standard hotbed snshes are 3 feet
wide and 0 feet long, and the size of
the bed should bo mnde to suit tho
number of sashes employed, A frame
work of boards 18 to 24 Inches high
at the back and about 12 Inches high
In front Is placed over tho manure
filled pit to support tho sash.
Use for Thermometer.
About 3 or 4 Inches of fine garden
loam is spread evenly over the manure
and the bed allowed to stand four or
five days to warm up before any seed
Is sown. At first the temperature of
Uic bed mny run rather high, and It
Is best to delay planting the seeds In
it until it begins to decline. This can
best be determined by planting a ther
mometer, with tho bulb about threo
Inches below the surface of the soil.
The tempernture should fall below 85
degrees before seeds arc planted.
If glass-filled sashes are not avail
able for covering tho hotbed, heavy
muslin may be used Instend ; the glass,
however, makes the most desirable
form of covering. Cnrc must be taken
to give the bed sufficient ventilation to
prevent overheating, as It is liable to
heat up very rapidly when the sun
shines full upon the glass.' Watering
should be done during the early part
of the day and the bed given enough
nlr so that the plants will dry off be
fore" night. The bed should bo closed
beforo evening, In o'rdcr to conserve
enough heat to carry It through the
night In good condition. If the weath
er should turn severely cold, n cov
ering of straw, blankets or canvnl
mny bo thrown over the bed to pro
tect It.
Cotdframa Construction.
A coldfrume Is constructed In exact
ly the same inniinor ns n hotbed, with
the exception thut no manure Is placed
beneath It to supply hont.
Beforo Hie plants are set In the gnr
den, "either from the hotbed or tho
coldfrume, they should ho gradually
hardened to outside conditions by giv
ing them more ventilation each day.
Finally, remove the sashes entirely on
bright duys and replace them during
the nights. Tho aim should be to
produce strong, healthy plants that
will moke a quick start when placed
In the garden.

There Is somo difference of opinion
us to whether the pruning should be
done in the fall or In the early spring.
Despite tho argument as to the time,
tho pruulng Is absolutely necessary If
crops are to he the best possible un
der weather, soil or other conditions
that may prevail in any particular lo
cnlity. In pruning fruit or flowering trees

GOOD JOKE ON DANISH KING
Monarch Jumped Too Quickly to Con
clusion That Eskimo Was
Actuated by Loyalty.
An amusing story of the king of
Denmark's recent visit to Greenland
was recently told by M. Aogaard of tho
Danish legation, to members of tho
Danish club In London.
As the royal yacht was approaching
Greenland a dnrk spnck became vislblo
on the open sea. It 'proved to bo a
solitary Eskimo in his llttlo cnynk
(native canoe). Tho Eskimo "enmo on
board and his loyalty In having braved
the perils of the sea In such a frail
craft assured him tho warmest of wel
comes. Tho king presented him with
a cigar and, what tho Eskimos most
highly prize, a rifle.
On landing, the king described the
Incident to the Danish commissioner
In Greenland and asked him who tho
man was.
The commissioner, In accents of hor
ror, replied: "The mnti's an csenped
convict. lie broko prison yesterday,
stole a canoe and put to sea. We
thought he had been drowned."

you do not sleep better at night as so
many other people have proved for
themselves.
