Girls are glorying in the fact that Lent
comes late this year The season IS thus
made longer and debutantes have. a bet
ter chance. Last year Lent came so ear
" that the poor young things hardly had
a chance To be introduced before they
were shut up in the house and told to
say their prayers and eXpatiate their
slng-and that before they had been en-
gagged a single time. 1t was hard, indeed.
but. after all. il was only an accident
of birth. for their younger sisters. who
came out this year. as | have said, are
having a great time-and all for the diff
ference of a year or two. it Is pleasure
to look al some of the gowns these youth
full slayers wear. They are so fresh and
bright and so in keeping with the faces
and figures that they adOrn.
Here is one worn by a young blonde
with heavenly blue eyes. The material
was that lovely, ripping, silky-lookinS
crepon in the blue that matched her
eyes This formed the skirt, and all
around the bottom were set little black
velvet bows. Long lace points extended
from the waist TO nearly the bottom OF
the dress-two on each side. The bodice
was blue gauze, with square neck, Dor
dered all around with lace insertion. The
sleeves are large black velvet balloons.
Some of the most gIrlish gowns have
lace bodices. yelling silk Of some bright
shade. These bodices are always made
blouse fashion. and give the wearer a
very youthful appearance.

The gist of the whole controversy over

mark i'm Mr.. j. +. Jackson's letter. pub
lished in Wednesdays Times: Il fail to
see" said he, the wisdom of nation
permitting the circulation of substitutes
for money which are al a discount away

And why Is there not as mitch wisdom

dry goods merchants of Lynchburg TO
sell their cloths at such prices as suit
them, and the hardware merchants OF
Richmond to do the same with their trace
chains and planters of South Carolina
to do the same with their cotton? what
has Government to do with the matter,
one way or the~other. 1t is right. II is alb

more than II does with the contracts the

of the value OF the article bought. why
should the Government undertake to SUI

Editor Times: What think you Of a
sc!col system that closes its doors on
children such weather as this? OF course
the children should be prompt. but this
caLnot always be. This morning at Z
c'colck my thermometer was at IA; at

have been much higher than 90 when a
police officer saw a little girl at a school
gate, crying on account OF the cold
waiting for the tardy doors to be opened.
My Cwn child has been caught out in the
rain and kept sufficiently 'ong to nave
her clothing wet through and through

the classes to be disturbed by tardy

otherwise sheltered, than that the schol-

TEETHING children may be relieved
of convulsions by being immersed in a

TIE education of delicate, nervous
children may be neglected until the age

BEAR in mind that you are largely re-
sponsible for your childs inherited

THE practice of frightening little
children in order to make them quiet,
has, in some cases, resulted in convul-
