The husband of a woman who nags
is certainly to be pitied. 1t is the
children, however, who get the worst
of 1t. Poor things. For them there
is no redress.
The child of the nagging woman
can be picked out from a thousand
other children Nine out of ten
children brought up by nagging wo-
men are fretful and Irritable. They
whine at the least provoeation and
are petulant at any cross or depri-
walton.
The expression of the child's face
when he is crossed is usually a re-
production of the nagging mothers
frown.
The nagging mothers face soon
acquires lines which reveal her iden-
tity to any one who has known and
lived with nagger. This is not ali,
though, the nagging mother can be
discovered in the face of her child.
This is cruelty to the little one. 1t
is unjust to send a child through life
with habits born through mothers
inability to control herself or to curb
her disposition to nag.

The Candles Trinmnh.

Beauty lies in the constantly
changing expression and color of the
face. The softness of the skin, also,
has much to do with the appearance
and charm of the woman beauti-
full" All this the good old fashioned
candle accomplishes. Beauty has
found out the secret. Therefore,
presto, the candles are taking the
place of electricity!
There are shadows playing in the
hair of the blonde or the brunette;
there are lights shining in the eyes
of young and old; there is a tender
softness to the color of maid and
matron when the room is lighted by
the twinkling lights of myriads of
candles.
Our grandmothers have always
claimed this. We have laughed at
the good old women, thinking they
were dreaming of the beauty of their
girlhood. But they were right after
all.
Many of the most fashionable af-
fairs abroad and at home are now
made attractive by this old but alto
gether charming method of light
ing.

lar this fall The sunfower portiere
is one of the most unique The en-
tire curtain consists of a series of
sunfiowers suspended by baby rib
bons. The ribbons are of various
lengths, none of them quite reach
ing the floor. The baby ribbon may
support two, thfee, or four sunflow-
ers. -e5E
If the flowers seem inclined 10
turn about, they can be steadied,
after the portiere is in place, by
catching the flower to several of the
ribbons. A design can be formed
by placing the flowers at certain dis
tances from each other on the rib
bons. 81
The flowers are made of yellow
felt, cut and gathered to a brown
fringed center.

Teeth of Children

Too little care is given the teeth
in early childhood In order to in
sure good permanent" set OF
teeth, the first, or milk" teeth
should be carefully watched.
These first teeth are 20 in number
and begin arriving about the seventh
month. The four central incisors
are the first to come, the lower ones
showing first. Then are four more
iRcisors, four CANNES and eight mo-
lars. All appear by the twentieth
or twenty-frst month except the last
four molars, which often appear as
late as the third year.
BY the sixth or seventh year the
first true molar appears; and about
the same time the first teeth begin
falling and the second appear.
From the time the first teeth ap-
pear the mother can cleanse them by
wrapping the end of the first finger
in absorbent cotton or a bit of old lin
en- and wetting it in listerine and wa
ter, one-half tablespoon of listerIne
to half glass of tepid water. AS

For the girl who is going to a
boarding school only few and SIM
pie dresses are needed. To buy a
great many new gowns means to
wear the home gowns during the en-
tire year. The style and fancies of
the new town and of the college and
school make it sensible to start out
with few garments and add to them
during the year. Here is a clfallie
for dinner. The yoke and cuffs are
of cream colored challie. The ground
of the gown Is cream colored; the
figure is a dainty shrimp pink. A
little frill of lace outlines the collar
and cuffs. The bands and the belt
match the pink figure and are of
velvet. The buttons are covered with
cream challie. The collar is becom-
ing only to the fun yehested Girl.
The Tacoma times. [volume] (Tacoma, Wash.) 1903-1949, 1904-09-06

soon as possible the child should be
taught to use a brush, one with mod
erately stiff bristles having longer
bristles at the end that will go be-
tween the teeth and back of the mo-
lars. Provide a spool of dental floss
and show him how to use it, Insist
upon the teeth being brushed after
every meal and before retiring, for
only scrupulous cleanliness will save
the teeth. Acids eat away the enam-
ell and acids result from the decom-
position of particles of food which
remain between the teeth.
Neglect in this particular not only
causes pain, as in toothache, but one
0annot masticate properly with poor
teeth, and indigestion is the result.
Last, but not least, poor teeth de-
tract greatly from the appearance.
Have the teeth inspected three or
four times year and the assures
filled without delay, especially in the
first permanent molars, for if these
are drawn the arch of the teeth is
broken and the other teeth do not
remain in proper position.
A good tooth powder may be made
by combining 4 ounces of chalk, one
ounce of pumice and one drachm of
myrrh. If the breath is unpleasant
one may add to this 1l5 drachms of
bleaching powder Chloride of lime) ,
which will sweeten the breath and
help to whiten the teeth.
