BEAUTIFUL SNAPDRAGON?
Snapdragons are easily within the
reach of tine ,humblest gardener. They'
are easy to'grow and no finer annual
for gardenaleeoration and for boquets
can be grown.- The snapdragon, too,
is a perennial and may be kept over
in the open 'ground if kept dry.• '"It
is not particularlysusceptible o,cold
weather but winter wet , rots •lit. " In
well -drained soil it often survives
.with 'a protecting mulch.
The main"factor in growing 'snap-
dragons is to sow early and grow
cool. • The seed San started to good
advantage in a room which is just 'a
little above 'the freezing point at the
coldest; and . not above 50 at the
warmest the seedlings came up •and
apparently stand still for a -bine, but
they ere gaining speed or a 'sprint
when they get outside.
If yu so happen to "be in the know"
Y011 will undoubtedly refer to this old-
fashioned plant' as `hn antirrhinum.
That is its scientific name and one
taken up by fiesists when they made
the snapdragon a popular greenhouse
product. R
You can grow as fine spikes as a
florist if you want to t(11< the trine
and trouble, but shorter Spikes and
more 'of them give the,best effect in
the garden. For a sheet of bloom the
intermediate class is beat. For edg-
ing the Tom Thumb type is excellent,
and for massive spikes, the giant or
majus type.
Do not plant snapdragons it freshly
manured soil. They do best in soil
which was well fertilized and culti-
vated the previous year. They will
like a phosphetie manure during
their growing season; This' meads
bone heal, the 'finest in texture pro-
curable. They need good drainage
and it is better to give thein a good
mulch of lawn clippings in hot, dry
spells than to water frequently. An
occasional soaking and mulch takes
them along in fine style.
To grow the big spikes, plant the
majus or giant type seeds; Confine
the plant to one stein and pinch out
the side branches as they appear, a
few at a time so as net to_pprove . too
much sof a shock to the plarst. Give,
the plants s square foot of room and
full sun and they; will snap into it.

ORDER OF OTDFELLOWS
A correspondent to the. Family
Herald 'the other day was, given the
following information regarding the
Order of Oddfellows It will be seen
that it is • one' hundred and,,.seven
years since Oddfellowship :was intro-
duced on' this continent . and; eighty
three years since it came to Canada:
"Great antiquity has been claimed
for the •Order of Oddfellows, one pop-
ular tradition -ascribing it • to the
Jewish'legiosi under the Roman Em-
peror Titus. However, it is now gen-
erally admitted that the institution
cannot be traced back beyond the
first half of the eighteenth century,
The distinguished literary man, Dan-
iel Defoe, author of historical works
as well as the famous story, "Robin-.
• son Cr'usoe," who died in April, 1731,
makes mention of the society of Odd -
fellows. The oldest +lodge of which
the name has been handed down is
the Loyal Aristarcus, Ne. 9, which,
met in 1745 "at the Oalsley Arms,
Borough of Southward; Globe Tavern,
'Hatton Green. or the Boar's Head in
Smithfield, as the noble master may
•direct." Other lodges were formed;
They •gradually adopted a definite
common ritual and became confeder-
ated tinder the nartle of the Patrietie
Order. The society continued` to exist
as the 'Union `Order of Oddfellows
until 1809. In 1813, at a .convention
in Manchester (England, of 'course),
was formed the Independent Order of
Oddfe'llows, Manchester Unity, known
throuhgout the English-speaking
world.
Oddfellowship was introducedinto
the United States from the Manches-
ter Unity in 1819 alfa the Grand
Lodge of Maryland and the United
States was constituted on Feb. 22,
1821. In 1843 it issued a dispenses
tionfor rolj'ening the Prince of Wales
Lodge No. 1, in Montreal, Canada."

A Column Prepared Especially for Women. -.-
Bi Not Forbidden to Men
Every' task however simple sets the
soli that does it free;
Every deed of love and mercy, done
to man, is done- to Me.
--�Dr. Van Dyke.
A well-known woman writer takes
the ground that men keep their youth
longer than women. She says a man
keeps .always in his heart the image
•of the little boy he used to be, while
a woman when she grows up' is
'nightly grown up and leaves behind
cher . for all time the little gill she
used to be. Perhaps - there is some
truth in this. At lesat we often meet
men of middle age who are quitenet-
=allyand 'agreeably "boyish," while
if a middle aged woman tries to be
"girlish" -she usually appears silly.
Alm„• we will often, notice that a
middle-aged wife will appear Calder
than her husband, although she may
actually be yonnger in years.
Nowadays when women are be-
ginning to think ou`t things for thein-
selves and lto find out what manner
of women they are, (fox up Ina
com-
paratively short thne ago lrlen were
the ones who took upon themselves
the task of •analyzing women and
Melling her what she was and how the
should think and act, and a sorry
mess she has ,made' in many ;cases
trying to live up to the .ideal which
magi; set for+ her). But' now women
,having taken in hand the. manage-
ment of
anage-ment.of her own life to a greater ex-
tent than ever before in the history of
the race, she should"- look into this
matter and try to find out why a
woman grows old' quicker that a
m4.
Perhaps it is looking ,after and
mothering the little boy which still
lives in the heart of the man who ie
her husband,as well asthe children
which'' , she has borne •that
ages her. Everyone "has seen
wives' who did actually "mother"
their husliande. We should imagine
this tobe rather trying on any wife
and we -would suggest that she be.
gin playing with the little boy in her
husband's heart, instead of mothering
hint. Care, anxiety and worry ages
nlueh quicker and much more effect-
natty than the years do. The average
woman should learn not to carry any
more than her share •of the care, :anx-
iety and worryof the family. She
should learn to relax, and to see the
funny sides of things. Oh yes!: 1'
know .that women are not supposed to
have a sense of -humor. Men -have
been telling them that; through the
printed page ever since the art of
printing was invented, and probably
•
told thein by word of mouth .boforo
that, tshouldn't be a bit surprised
if M the old Egytian manuscripts
which have been dug up from time to
time, there should be found some re-
ference to this supposed lack in wo-
men. But, nevertheless, whether 0
be a modern growth or not, a great
many women have quite a consid-
erable sense df: humor,and goodness
knows, they need itio It is a good
thing to cultivate because it helps
-oyer many a rough- spot. Women
should learn to see the funny side of
themselves. A woman who has learn-
ed to take a quiet chuckle at her
own inconsistencies has gone quite a
way; and she should learn
to take up the burdens
of life and carry thorn mahout grow '
thin-lipped and grim, to. be eap-
able without being hard. Personally,
I don't believe the . little girldies in
the heart of a woman; she only gets
buried under : so many cares , and 'bur-
dens, which women consider so impor-
tant, often to others rather than her-
self, that .she - shops functioning. I'd
be for dragging the little maid into
the open, curling her. hair and put-
ting 021 her a pretty f ock and having
her ready to be trotted out whenever
an opportunity occurs. If women
would do this she would' be ,more ag-
reeable and companionable for every-
body, would be a more successfuil.
`mother, and .the next trine that
middle-aged husband' of hers became
the little "boy he used'to be sir could,
instead of meeting his mood with the
patient senile sof an indulgent mother,
she could meet hint on his own
ground. The'shock might be hard on
the poor man at first' Milt Fd be wil-
ling to wager he'd come to like it in
time.

The male bachelor inenibel.'s of the
House of -Commons in' England held
their dinner the other night'' The
bachelor girl member was not invited.
Probably she was just as glad. Prom
accounts it wasn't a very .gay or en- -
joyable affair. The toast te-the mem-
bens who had been ;married since the
last banquet and therefore not pre-
sent at this, we are told, was drunk
in "meleneholy silenee. The infer-
ence was, that the taelaneholly was
caused by the falling from grace of
these members, but who knows that
it was not caused by envy of their
happler lot? An this fuss made by
these bachelors looks 'very much to
me like the case sof the little holy,
