Serviceable coats Of tub material for
children are made up in pique, the soft
French pique, of white or pink or blue,
often with hand embroidery Of white
and scalloped edges embroidered in white,
and there is pique with fine honey COMB
or checked weave which makes up very
prettily. Real cluny lace and baby Irish
are used upon the pique when lace IS
required, the heavy Irish crochet bead
ing, giving good effects in simple models.
White pique embroidered in colors is
seen. but is less desirable for all around
use than the all white.
In silk coats for the very little girl
one finds rather more variety than
usual. Some adorable little models are
shown in delicate pink shantung, tuuor
and other pongee weaves. These are
made up very Simple, often with view
to laundering, for the material will laun-
der eXcellently if proper care is taken
to avoid fading the delicate color, One
straight little model, full from the yoke
is bordered by plain hens feather stitch
ed by hand in white and has a deep col
lar Of hand embroidered lingerie and
yalenciennes lace.
Bengaline is a silk favored for dressy
coats for children, and is, as rule made
up upon lines somewhat severe, with a
little hand embroidery or heavy lace
for trimming. Some pretty models are
quite plain, with only lace collars and
big pearl buttons for relief. The heavy
Ottoman silks in fine lustrous soft quail
ity and Bayadere stripes make very hand
some plain coats.
1t is important for nurse to be good
looking, says a we'll known doctor. You
don't know what it means to a patient,
h
to watch the movements of shapeiy hands
and to be soothed by neat figure fittiL-
in and out. You know. of course, tb

sort. but we'll nodded features, healthy
complexion, steady eyes. | never intrust
ii case, if | can help it, to any but
good looking nurse. 1t doesn't matter
whether the patient is a man or woman
women are as susceptible to such in

DR.. Darcy Power, surgeon to st.
Bartholomew hospital, wants cult
waited women for nurses. "A man who is
convalescent," he told the assembled
nurses at their recent conference in Lon
don, wants for a nurse a cultivated
woman, who can discuss the topics OF the
day with him. Nurses should attend good
concerts, go to the theaters, visit the pic
ture galleries and study literature, if
they want to be good private nurses"
But this, one of the nurses in the au-
dience remarked to her neighbor, takes
money, also time.
There would be less indigestion and
fewer sick headaches" said a London
doctor, eff people would stick to the hot
water cure. The first dose should be
taken half an hour before breakfast.
This cleanses the alimentary canal and
leaves it ready to digest the breakfast.
If you don't care to eat fruit for that
meal, squeeze half a lemon in the water,
and that will give you the requisite acid.
Most sick headaches will disappear be
fore copious drafts of hot water. Ii
you wake up with a headache, take
tumblerful of hot water and go back to
sleep, and you are almost sure to wake
up feeling all right. The water should
be freshly boiled
Tie latest freach of fashion seems to
be to make it's vOtaries look Oh dress

yer and crystal, and trains and panels
are fashioned of cloth of silver.
How many shrewd women earning
their living appreciate the business value
of a smile? Mighty few if you count the
number of sour faces the chilly, repel-

hear in offices. One young woman who
has been rapidly promoted is neither
brilliant nor anything out of the ordl-
nary She is merely a living ray OF
sunshine. They like to have her around
the office. This does not mean that she
talks lot and wastes the time of those
who are busy. No, indeed; that would
hardly be appreciated. She says very
little, but she always looks pleasant and
agreeable. People like to ask her to do
things. She has such a sweet smile,
such a willing manner. In the opposite

cleverness grow old in inferior positions

1t is very easy to make or mar ones
face. If it is allowed to settle into a
heavy, stupid expression it is apt to stay
that way. The muscles grow stiff and
unaccustomed to quick motion. On the
contrary, quick response to emotion
makes the skin thin and flexible, the
muscles keenly alive. You see this quail
ity of being alert in the faces of act
resses, who have to pretend, at least, all
kinds of feeling, and the opposite in the
cOuntenances of peasant women, who
live close to the soil and become heavy
and emotionless for lack of incident and
companiOnship Beauty itself is not
beauty without expression. Cultivate a

Don't forget the tonic effect of a cold
bath on some children. 1t is in many
cases one of the best things for the pre-
ventiOn of summer pining. A cold bath
