A New York mother, who is rearing
her little girl with the greatest care and
! making an effort to educate her up to the
best social and economical standards.
commenced to give her an allowance of 10
cents a week when she was 6 years old.
| and now that she is s. she gives her 10
cents. With this money the child buys
herself little luxuries and small things
that she needs and makes presents. if she
makes any.
1t was not long after the little girls
allowance had commenced that her
tAaa 81 VA Aooy ~
allowance priciple had not then really
begun to work and the small girl had no
money. but she wished to make her
mother a present. She went to her about
it.
Mamma" she said. 81 would like so
: much to make you a present, but l
haven't any money."
"But you nave had your money" said
| the mother.
Yes answered the little girl. but 1

could loan me a little? I shall have it to
pay you back. you know"
NO." said the mother. ~thoughtfully, Il
am afraid l can't do it. You ave had
your money and spent it, and now you
will nave to get along without it"
The next Christmas the little girl
wanted to make presents and she had sew
eral dollars with which to do it. She is
very careful now and there is seldom an
emergency which she has not the cash on
hand to meet. 1t is not a wealthy mother
who does this, cut a woman who earns
her own money and knows the value of it,
as she has wished her little daughter do
before she is obliged to from necessity.
The self-government plan is carried on
in much of the little girls life. 1t is part
ly necessary and partly undertaken as a
rational system. The little girl sometimes
has not learned her lessons and she asks
her mother for an excuse to the teacher.
The mother writes one something in this
sty1e:-
Dear Miss Blank-Alice has not her
lessons this morning and she wishes me
- o.ly x,o,, +1 vo11c bor 7 do nor know
why she has not learned them. 1t would
seem to me that she has had plenty of
time. Very truly yours.
"ALICE'S MOTHER"
IF this note is taken to the school by the
little girl there is another that goes to the
teacher from the mother which is ex-
%planatory of the mothers method, and 1t
assures the teacher that she wishes to CO.
operate with her and that they are both
working for the best interests of the little
girl.
The other morning the little girl wish
ed an excuse for hardness. She was
sure she could not get TO school on time.
This is the note the mother wrote to the
teacher and read to the child:-NDear
Miss Blank-Alice wishes you to excuse
her hardness this morning. She has been
slow about dressing and getting ready.
and win. therefore. be late to school.
Very truly yours,
ssALICE'S MOTHER"
But his did not suit the little girl,
who thought she must be late, and she

to school without an excuse.

not always warm enough without the
addition of some wrap. says tHarpers
Bazar.' They are so designed that very
often they look as though they were coats
or outside wraps, when in reality they
are simply the waists of the gowns; and 1t
is necessary, for the sake of health, to
carry some light wrap or something else
to put around the neck to make them
warm enough.
The wraps are just as fascinating as the
opera c1oaks of the winter, and very
nearly as expensive, for, as a rule, they
are made of expensive materials, and the
fashion is so new as TO make it impossible
to nave 1t copied by any but skilled work
people. There is a dainty, old-fashioned.
and picturesque look about the wraps that
makes them essentially different from
anything worn for some time, and both
the young girls and older women wear
them, quite irrespective of age. One thing
that must be aid against them, they are
not in the least becoming to the figure
in fact. hide all graceful lines. There is
one style. for instance, made with a hood
that enIargeg the shoulders below where
the shoulders should be, and is extremely
scant below the waist-a trying cut even
for the most wonderfully formed figure.
White cloth gowns are to be a good
deal worn during the coming months. and
a very beautiful one, embroidered in white
lace. appears to open in scaIlops down the
front. having a thick corded edge which
is worked over with white wool-this
shows the Princesse effect-the bodice and
skirt being trimmed to match. Very light
blue is another fashionable color in these
fine cloths, and a beautiful model has a
minute basque. cut in acute points. intro
duced on the skirt and around the collar
trimmings. and then continued as far as
the knee Beautiful white muslin en-
broidery of the finest description figures
much in the o-rnanaentation of the bodices.
When linen dresses come to be worn there
will be some wonderful eoIorings. As an
example, an amber shade, worked with
black, having lace motifs let in at In
