much chance in the open field against

courage, and even as they are, fighting
behind barbados, they are by no means
foemen to be despised
The trouble with most Of the Latin
American countries is the absence Of

ruler Of the hour knows no check but
force, and utilizes the resources OF the
country for his own purposes as des-
politically as ever did a Gar those of
Russia. Poor Paraguay, under the
sway Of Francisco Lopez, fought allied

Fashion Notes

Birmingham and the various silks of
the pongee class are made up for street
wear, not only in bolero models, but in
pony coat and basQued models; and
such silk, in the natural tone, trimmed
simply with soutache the same color, is
very successful in the hands of a clever
tailor
Street frocks of the most severe tail
ored description in the ubiquitous light
gray mixtures, with no trimming save
collar and cuffs of panne, are shown by
several Of the most exclusive tailors,
the panne being usually III some con-
trasting shade. the collar of the round
ed shawl sort.
one Of the novelties of the season is
the extremely pretty striped white mo-
nairs. The stripping is. of course, in
| the weave, and is in all widths, from
pinstripe to a good half-inch. The mo-
hair is of the best quality, rs pliable
and soft as serge, though with the old
dust-shading surface and luster.
/ Fouiard is once more tremendously
chic, and the material appears in sew
| eral new guises, crepe de chene foulard
| being one of the most attractive. In
! connection with both voile and foulard,
| and indeed with almost all of the pop
ular materials, one must note the in
sistence Of combinations of materials
Embroidered linen trimmings are of
| ten introduced upon the simple linen
| frock, and, while not so mOdish as en-
broidery done upon the frock material,
| give good results. Linen trimmings
upon linen, strappings, battlement de-
signs, Greek key designs, etc, skillful-
| ly tailored, are also liked for the morn
ing costume of linen.
The women who buys a very smart
belt and blouse and hat can look ex-

least pretentious of frocks, and fire.
quently it will pay to give what seems
a high price for some ready-made dress

Rich woman's Fad.

IF you are going to be conspicuous,
be So in a whole-souled manner" says
a society woman who gave to her jew
eler q commission for necklace which
shows she carries out her own ideas.
The necklace will be of fine gold links,
from which will hang golden miniature
reproductions of the heads of her es-
pecial pets, encruSted with diamonds.
There are three dogs, two cats, a pony
and parrot. The clasp is a copy of a
pet lizard, with diamond eyes. Women
who like novelties may think the neck
lace is we'll worth copying, for an or
binary dog collar or rope of pearls
isn't a patch to it when it comes to
causing comment.

One might sum up the needs of ba-
btes in three words-fresh air, regular
ity, quiet. Babies are but little ami
mails, it is true; but after all they are
little animals with a great deal to do
for themselves, and they should receive
all the assistance possible from those
in charge Of them, to enable them to
perform this work properly.
In the first year of life great changes
are going on in the body, and the baby
needs all the help possible to meet the
demands made upon its tiny system in
the way of tissue formation. A baby
cannot speak up and tell us that its
meals do not seem to set well, or that a
dissipated evening gives it a disturbed
night, so there is nothing for parents

Girls and Beauty Foods.

Much of the muddy" coarse, or 9th

by the inordinate craze many girls have
for acid flavorings ii. e., vinegar, etc. +,
and the strengthening sweets which
contain sugar substitutes that directly
produce impurities in the blood. Prob
ably few girls know that their craving
for sweets and acids can be satisfied in
quite natural and beneficial way. Re
Gently, the Kings physician urged the
public to make more plentiful use Of
dried currants, which, he states, pro-
vide nutriment for brain and body
much in excess of any other foods. As
.currants contain a very delicate and
agreeable acid, and are almost entire
iy composed Of the nourishing grape
sugar intelligent girls should take the
hint and see that their food contains
this important little fruit as often as
possible. There is no doubt that cur
rants SO enrich the blood as to produce

The short Sleeve Fad.

Mrs Osborn. who conducts the fash
ion department of the American-Jour-
al-EXaminer, makes some pertinent re-
marks on the senselesSness with which
women take up every new fad in dress.
There should be n limit to the fol
lowing of fashion," she says. mo wom-
an should be foolish enough to wear a
garment which makes her look absurd.
When one sees woman with an arm
blacksmith, or with fat red
or with one like thin stick. in
sleeves, one realizes to what
hs foolish women will so in follow
{ n fashion. One also realizes that
line vanity entirely blinds such
len to the fact that their arms are
LOT presentable.
IF woman has not a decently pre-
sentabIe arm she should wear long
sleeves 1t is also silly looking for a
business girl TO work in an Office all
day in a short-sleeved waist"
