Raising Babies.

From Golfers Weekly.
Hospital methods are adopted more each
year in the private treatment of babies
the methods, that is to say, of the superior
modern hospital. conducted under the best
medical supervision. The cradle Is doomed
and all its rocking memories. The child
lies upon its bed and is not picked up and
carried about the room, even when it yells.
Visitors and relatives are no longer encour-
aged to pound it in the ribs, pinch its chin
or transfer microbes to its lips. This strict
ness is laughed at by ribald outsiders and
resented by relics of the Old regime, which,
like every other fossil, is attributed to ma
ture no doubt with justice, but without
much relevance. Actually, this intelligent
treatment Of infancy is doing much TO check
nervousness in our children, to protect them
from bad habits and needless exactions and
to make them self-reliant. Babyhood in
deed. is the best conducted age at present
When the child grows older it meets UNI
doubted loss in the substitution of nurse s
for mother 5 care, tendency encoura ged
by the new activities of women and by city
life. At the beginning, however, in the
first weeks and months of his existence
when change and development are more
rapid that at any other period. the human
being has never had such decent treatment
as it is the happy fashion to bestow upon
HIM now. He is treated for his own well
fare instead of for the amusement of his
friends.

RICHEST OF MATERIALS, BUT
SIMPLEST OF LINES.
Fashioned Cameo and Medallion

HER MODERATE STYLES
Special Correspondence Of The Evening Star.


NEW YORK, December Il, 1903.
In the garden of fashion springs the foun-
tain OF eternal youth old lady styles are
practically unknown, and that unpleasant
word elderly is seldom uttered. Virtual
" for both youth and age the lines of most
garments are the same and some Of the
seasons -undersieeves and stoled
capes especialy-lend themselves well TO the
heaviest burden Of years.
Nevertheless il is not every white-haireG
woman who viii consent to wear the "trip
peries Of her granddaughter, even with
modification So for these wearers. and for
those who have passed the border of the
quarantine, private makers are designing
what they call moderate styles"
These toilets are made of the richest ma
terials for the oldest women. Velvet gowns
for visiting, reception and theater wear
are designed with a superb pIaianesS, the
skirts more or less trained and very fun
IhlS fullncSS is sometimes achieved at the
front and side breadthS by tiny downturn
ming tucks, or. if the figure allows il, the
skirt Will be gathered all around. Very lit
tie stiffening is put in the bottom, and the
best models show the entire jupe lined with
soft silk in the same color.
The bodice Of one of these velvet costumes
IS in many instances q tailorless affair fitted
closely to the figure. For the slightest wo-
men the three-quarter-length coats beltcd
into the waist are often advised, and with
such styles go voluminous iabots and sleeve
falls of rich lace.
For the genuinely old lady who makes no
bones of her age and likes to look as her
own mother looked, there are some charm
ing soft silks in gray. brown and violet shot
with velvet. Or rather, they seem to he
run through with chenille thread which
taxes so to speak a long stitch for the

A Handsome Christmas Centerpiece

A centerpiece which is particularly ac-
ceptable as Christmas gift is of brown
linen worked in white. 1t is novel in color
ing, and only a small amount of labor is
necessary in the making. A large circle
is cut from brown linen of fine weave,
the edges of which are scalloped and fin
lshed with lace braid. This braid is carr
ried in scroll design toward the center
of the linen circle, Each saallop ends with
a wheel of tOarO lace. These wheels NAV
be bought ready made. The heart of the
centerpiece is merely outlined with a circle
of lace wheels. From these, spreading out
to the edge of the centerpiece. are delicate
sprays of leaves embroidered in mercerized
cotton.
The brown centerpiece is very effective
for use on dining table between mea 8
and is equally appropriate as a center COW
ering for a library table.
