Of many women’s conventions held this month In Georgia none Is of more extend ns far as the knuckles. They have only slight fulness on the shoul der and lit the arm closely. "At (’allot Soeurs I saw some beau tiful three-quarter sleeves of velvet and silk lengthened to seven-eighths by dainty, transparent under sleeves of lace and net. “Among the colors that are favored by the leading couturleres I find pur ple Ini every shade, cerise and navy olue. Mustard Is also a fashionable color, and a new green called ’petrol.’" THE MAKING OF~ WINDOW GARDEN8. Every window In a house may have Its small winter garden If one chooses, Prom among the planta.that love shade, and the others that must have sun It Is possible by careful selection to suit all situations. Rut I would not advise giving up the air and light space of tnany windows to growing plants; In stead, I would suggest that one entire hay or receaaed window be devoted to them and all the display made there, with the exception of the “kitchen gar den," of which I shall speak later. If the usual house plants are to be the feature of the window, garden pots will be the more convenient way of handling them; but If something origi nal Is desired, a window box wherein pansies, violets, ngeratum, alysaum, mignonette, or almost any low-growing and free-flowering plant can be sown In a mass, as In an outdoor bed, will be a delightful change. Whatever you decide upon, choose a few varieties and have several plants of each rather than crowding the space with single plants of many kinda. And remember that the temperature for Planis should be lower than that of the modern living room, and that they must have fresh air as well as water. Go about preparing the plants at once— how Is the accepted time. The Chinese primrose has long been a ' av >rlte with window gardeners be- rauso of Its constant, free-flowering qualities. Get plants at once and pot them In a light, spongy soli, being care ful to have the crown of each plant *:•!! elevated above the surface, which Would slope away from It on all. sides wo lhat the water may run away from •he plant rather than collect about IL ‘itherwlse the stem and roots will de- <a v The crown of the plant will form "everal divisions after a little, from each one of which flowers will he pro duced very freely during the entire winter.

Plants generally begin to blAom In December, and until May they will seldom be with out dowers.—From ‘indoor Gardening 'or the Winter Months." in The Circle ■ur November.
