LITTLE TNO-SHOES.
Advice That VIII Help to Make Baby
Happy md Healthy.

:" HE shoes of small child must be
VIZ very carefully chosen. An 1il-fit-
ting boot upon tender foot Is the
most freuuen; source of corns. bun
ions. and enlarged joints. A child's
shoes should have broad solcs OF the exten-
sion pattern and no heels at all. They should
be made Of soft. hut not thin, leather. and
they should he laced rather than buttoned
rs laced boots afford more support to the
ankle.
The little maid had been i'll and had strug-
gled through the very early stages of CON
vaIrsccnce. She had taken ''nourishing''
brothS and "nourishing' jellies until her
soul was weary within her. One morning
she electrified the family by sitting bolt
upright in bed and saying:
Il want you all to Ia Ike notice. am not
going 10 take any more nourishment. I'm
hungry and want my meals. and not an
other mouthful of nOurshment will eat"
If the baby is even ordinarily healthy he
should have his daily airing. no matter what
the state of the weather. From the first
time he is taken out his constitutional should
be regularly observed. To take him out on
some days and keep him at home on Others
is to pave the way for all sorts of Illness.
The child will be much more liable to take
cold who is kept indoors some days than
the one who goes out every day.

THE HOSTESS We LIKE.
She Creates the Atmosphere of Her
Home and Asserts Herself.

TfHATEVER the aesthetic or SEN
vAI suous attractions, the ultimate
wv fact is that when people assem-
BILE socially they meet to talk.
In popular definition ''socia-
BILE means conversation and .'unso-
ciar' means 'sleDce' The success of
any social gathering will be largely decided
by the prevailing spirit of conversation.
And in this. more than in any other feature
of the occasion. the personality or the
hostess should appear. No matter how
many gifted conversatinnalists there may
be present, she should not permi, an out
slider to create the atmosphere of the house.
Even the most diffidcnt woman. who glides
unobtrusivcly through throng elsewhere.
should courageously assert herself when
responsibility OF entertaining rests upon
her. In her admirable fearlessncss she may
recall the terse self-announcement of Rob
Roy: My foot is q my native heath, ,andmy
name is MacGregor."
