NERVOUSNESS IN CHILDREN.

Curing the nervous habits or tricks"
OF children Is one OF the most insistent
problems facing parents. The problem
is made particularly difficult because
the habits come so quietly that we lind
them established before we have really
noticed them. Some habits are caused
by disordered nerves, and In such
case the doctor must lie consulted.
Twitching OF the face or limbs. open
Ing OF the mouth. blinking the eyes.
hesitation OF speech. are all indications
that something is wrong. and no child
must be punished for them: indeed.
mere punishment never does any good
either TO the tricks dependent on bad
health or on those OF imitation. De-
fective sight Is the cause OF many so
called tricks: n child whose vision is
faulty screws up his eyes or scowls in
his efforts TO adapt his powers OF sight.
In such case an optician or oculist
should be called In and the sight
tested. A bad habit is simply repeated
action. and 1t is only by persistently
stopping 1t that one can hope 10 eradI-
cate it.-Woman's Life.

pulled from his reach and the ship be-
gan TO push from the shore, But the
ships officers and the attendants on
the deck could not permit such cruel
punishment OF bit OF displayed affec-
ton to go further. and orders were
given that sent the ship and the gang
plank back for the lover. And SO he
went aboard. and his fiancee melted
from view among the watching crowd.

POISON IN DRESS FABRICS.

The London Lancet. always ON the
outlook for anything detrimental 10
health. has something TO say on the Use
OF arsenic In the preparation OF many
dyes:
1--WE hold Ut says that 1t Is Just as
important that our clothing. ana espe-
cially that which is worn next to the
skin. should be free from arsenical
compounds as our food. Arsenic is
readily absorbed by the skin. and
symptoms OF arsenical poisoning may
easily arise from the presence OF the
metal In n garment. Perspiration that
has the property OF dissolving many
metallic substances which would be
otherwise untouched. We object to the
present practice OF loading dress mate
rlals with mineral substances"
Woolen garments. silk goods and ho-
siery, are often contaminated in this
way. AT least fifty per cent. of the
cheaper forms of hosiery contain very
distinct quantities OF arsenic. the
amount rising in some cases TO as
much as half Il grain per pair of stock
ings."

VOGUE FOR HAIR ORNAMENTS.

No'tb YIN -.
One would think by the gorgeous dis
play Of combs and pins for women's
hair that the fad started by Cleopatra
had once more become prevalent. That
women are tying to enhance their
locks by the aid of barbaric decorations
seems to be assured. Much money is
expended on these trivial bits of fem-
ininity every season. although they
have never been quite so expensive be-
fore. The combs are trimmed with
gold. sometimes heavily. and are set
with stones of all colors, shapes and
sizes. They are made in all manner of
ways. the designs arranged most artis-
ticnlly.
The wealthy women have their combs
made to tit their heads. and they also
select their own designs. Side combs.
of course. cannot afford to be so mas
sive. but the designs are made to
match. The use of the ordinary hair
pin has become thing of the past.
Now women are pinning their hair en-
tirely with large tortoise affairs, which
are neatly trimmed with bands of gold
or silver. and since the hair has be-
come fashionable at the back of the
neck they show Off to good advantage.
