Sleep for Children.

'It is criminal economy to attempt to save
little money by not giving every child in
your family bed to himself" was the
strong way in which a physician put it the
other day, addressing a woman's club on
Some Of the Important Titles Of Chill
dren's Health" Another thing emphasized
was the need Of early sleep. ''It is 50 easy
to let q nervous child lose sleep In the early
evening. when he she should be hard at
it, said the speaker. when a physician
prescribes some important remedy that must
be taken and which is not pleasant, a mother
feels that 1t Is time we'll expended to coax
and wheedle, and even bride the little one
to swallow 1t. Spend just as much thought
and effort in getting your child to sleep
every night, IL he does not fall off his chair
at the evening meal from drowsiness, as the
normal child should. Give up concerts, the
aters parties, anything till you have secured
for the nervous, twitching boy or girl, the
benign habit Of sleep. Coax him to his room
give him quick sponge bath, tuck him in
his single bed, with light wool blanket over
him besides the sheet, and in g. lowered light
sit by him and talk to him till he is quoted.
Tell him gentle, soothing stories, nothing to
excite his imagination, and when he Is
finally asleep, have the room COOL dark and
quiet. Don't let him try to sleep in a room
which has been a sitting room all the even
ing, without having it thoroughly refilled
with fresh outdoor air, which may be ao-
complished by throwing windows wide open
for fifteen minutes"

Petticoats are a most essential feature In
every costume, and it Is quite as necessary
that they should fit and hang we'll as that
the gown itself should be well cut Again
and again costume is seen which in itself
very smart, yet looks somewhat exceedingly
dowdy and quite lacking in style. Just what
the trouble Is 1t would be at first dificult
to say. Apparently it is well cut and we'll

and yet 1t will not have the same appear
ance of being in style as will some costume
that has cost third the money The real
beneath it are not we'll cut. Women who are
really In other ways neat never seem to
realize how much thought and care should
be bestowed upon this particular article OF
Dress
The new styles in petticoats are bewilder-
ingly pretty; better still, they are eminently
sensible in material and cut. Silk is the fay-
orite material, and there never was q
time when silk could be bought SO cheap.

Paris still prescribes our modes, and
according to all the latest fashion bud
gets, trimmed skirts are gaining favor
and overskirts are promised in the near
future. In fact, they have already put
in an appearance in very definite shape
on some of the latest Partisan gowns
being of a different fabric and color
from the underskirt, and whether we
like them or not they are here for our
consideration. Draped skirts and bus
ties, their usual accompaniment, have
been threatened before during the last
few years. but without any success,
since women would not discard the
plain, graceful gOred skirt in their
favor and nothing can be more elo
Quently indicative of complete emanci-
patton of women than this strength of
mind to repudiate a fashion which the
authorities declare. Blindly following
the extremes in fashion is not the Sc
cret Of success in dress in these days;
SO we can hope that the overdress, with
its atrociOus hustle, may be buried
once more. never to appear again.
The fashions in gowns just at pres
ent are decidedly pretty, and modera-
ton, except in expense, rules the day,
but the diminishing sleeves and skirts
make the future in fashion seem rather
uncertain, and the prospect of finding

The gown which has not some touches
of black or white, or both about it, is
the exception this season. Plaid silk is
very effectively used for the bodice OF

in gray, has a scarlet, blue, and yellow

The variety in coats and Jackets this
season exceeds anything ever known
before, and colored cloth and velvet
coats are worn with as many different
gowns as though they were black. The
full sacQue, hanging in pleats from
the shoulder back and in front. is one
of the fashionable shapes. and the
latest cut in this style of garment ia
very short, reaching only two or three
inches below the waist. The model
shown Is in green cloth trimmed with
black braid. Some of these loose coats
are made with panels separate from
each other, and one pretty STYLE Is
slashed in front to show the under bod
ice, and braided around the edges.
Loose coats of black velvet are very
stylish on the right figure, but for
those who cannot wear the shape they
are little Jackets Of velvet fitted close
on the shoulders and fulled just a trifie
at the waist into an embroidered belt.
