the first time iu the history ot the

right to sue for injuries to her charac-

equal suffrage and in twenty-five
others and two territories a restricted
right. applicable only to school affairs.

Probably sleep is the desideratum
most regularly abused by the children
Of the modern town and city parents.
Parties, calls and social engagements
of many kinds are allowed to invade
the hours of rest which the growing
organism absolutely requires If 1t is
to attain its highest possibilities. Not
only are boys and girls Of fourteen and
fifteen allowed occasionally to dance
until long after midnight. but from
day to day the hour at which they go
to bed is permitted to vary almost as
much as they may desire. 1t demands
no prolonged experience to prove that
even person of mature years cannot
practice indefinite irregularity in the
amount of sleep gained daily without
paying the penalty in the form Of de-
pleted vitality, and sooner or later, if
the habit be carried to an extreme, in
the form of nervous breakdown. How
much more necessary, therefore must
adequate sleep be in the case Of the
growing body flames Rowland Angel

Mrs. Davidge. who studied for more
than ten years before she attempted to
decorate a single house, says: "A nat

instincts may be very important ele-
ments in the makeup of furnisher,
but they are by no means a sufficient
ground for taking up that career. Only
after long preparation and the study
of the history of furniture, architecture
and design is a furnisher qualified to
handle the question of interior decora-
ton" Therefore let the girl who

said to be good: Place four ounces of

drops of strong solution of perchloride

one gallon. If the proportions are kept
a smaller quantity may be made. The

If parents would invest In small

would feel well repaid In seeing what

and even flower boxes can be made,

A Kilt Skirt.

In pressing the plaits in a kilt skirt
it often seems difficult to make them
keep the fold long after the pressing
has been apparently satisfactory. In
order to make the plaits hard and stiff
press on the wrong side with a heavy
iron and over very damp cloth. The
important thing is to be sure that the
cloth is entirely dry before removing
the iron.
