come along. and may be worn all through
the fall and when summary togs have be-
come passe and II is not yet time for
heavier raiment. Such a suit also proves
reliable standby fer little out-of-town
trips during the summer; for no woman
in this changeable climate ventures far
from home without the protection of an
always neat trim and shower-proof coat
and skirt suit, made of something more
substantial than washable stuff.
Good Lines of First Importance.
The cut, or. as the tailor deftly eX
presses it. 1.-The line, of the coat and
skirt suit is far more vital matter than
the kind of material used. The tailored
suit of good material will of course wear
through two seasons, but of what profit
is the second seasons wear II the style
is hopelessly out of date or the shape of
the garment unbecoming? 1t is equally
of course, wisdom to put money into fine
material when one can. but in these
changeable times. when styles vary with
bewildering rapidity. ii is question
whether material that will wear like iron
is the chief desideratum. After all the

Disciplining Japanese Children.

due notice is given the culprit. for parents
or teachers or guardians are never sup
posed to lose their tempers or to punish
in so-called hot blood. BY an ancient and
amusing custom all the household includ-
ing the Servants. are allowed to try and
beg the little offender OFF from his pun
ishment. His or her, little brothers and
sisters usually offer to take the punish
ment on themselves Angry looks and
shouting or harsh expressions are always
deprecated by the Japanese learned men
when Furnishing children.
At school. in the younger grades. the
teacher always attempts to guide his
pupils by personal friendship rather than
fear The children in eacn class are
taught to try to keep order among them
selves. and the class captain. or kyuucho,
is always allowed to call off the punish
ments. In high schools and institutions
for graduate students the sentiment OF
each class rules its conduct. and offenders
are handled entirely by their FELLOWSHIP
dents. This is extremely effective, and
Japanese students have many times com
mitted suicide rather than face their
angry fellow classmen after serious
breaches of class etiquette
The offenders are ignored by their class
men. and are never spoken to. in or out
of the classrooms. 4 public apology by
naughty Japanese student is needed and
this apology must be made not to the
professors of the institutions. but to the
members of his class. Then when the
public apology has been made vote Is
taken and if majority are i'll favor of
pardoning the offending student he is re-
ceived back by his classmates.

- HE school age of the japanese child
Of well-to-do families usually be-
= gins at six years of age, and up
until this period the little Japs are under
the care of their nurses and mothers.
Few nurses, however. in Japan are al
lewed to exercise any discipline over Their
little charges. as the child in Japan is
considered Of great importance. Any Jap
aneee mother who would venture to turn
her children over TO a hired nurse. as is
frequently done by wealthy American
mothers. would promptly be admonished,
not only by her own husband. but by all
her male relatives on both sides of the
family.
So the Japanese children. before six
years Of age, are punished by their moth
erS, but this amounts to little. To slap
child Is deemed not only a sign of
intense vulgarity and ignorance. but is
considered grave offense against the
child. To strike child on the head or
face Is thought cruel and unnatural. and
apt to injure the chld's health and intel
ligence. The Japanese child Is seldom
punished except for doing things apt to
snjure the child or some other person.
The principle used by the Japs in dis
ciphning children Is to guard them against
wrong actions more than to cOnstrain
them through fear of punishment. Pre-
vent wrong actions is their aim rather
than to punish the child. Children are
always admbnlshed but seldom compelled.

desirable lines and smart touches of his

Making the Skirt at Home.
Some women compromise cleverly on
the tailored suit problem by having the
coat smartly built by an expensive tailor
and fashioning the skirt themselves. or
with the aid of the home dressqnaker.
1t takes clever knack, however, to cut
and hang a skirt just rigilt-especially in
these days. when the allowance of ma
terial is so scanty that every line is, SO
to speak. in the limelight for criticism.
Moreover the short. trotteur skirt, the
accepted style fer all tailored suits except
very ceremOnous calling costumes, is
much more difficult to manage than the
trailing skirt whose breadths of fabric

and so makers have We'd with each other
to turn out boots quite as dainty as any

The dress boot is quite different from

Every last detail of such shoe is exc

is of course, costly. and the dress shoe is

hide discrepancies OF hang by their
kindly amplitude.
If the skirt is to be made UP at home
it will be wisest to avoid the eeeen-
trically cut models offered by French
fashion magazines and choose instead a
simple gcred pattern with good lines. The
crafty home dressmaker knows a trick
or two about skirt patterns. She pur-
chases a pattern two Inches too small for
her actual waist measurement and then
cuts the back breadths that much wider
along the seams. This gives the skirt
smooth. snug fit across the figure in front
while allowing sufficient fullness at the
back to avoid scanty or drawn ap-
pearance. High-class tailors achieve this
effect and their skirts always hang
gracefully without too much fullness.
while the average "ready-made'' or cut
from-a- paper pattern skirt is apt to bulge
out below the waist line in front
Another tailor trick which the. home
skirtmaker makes the most of is the hot

Three-Piece Suit on Practical Lines.
Mohair in a cool navy blue color was
used for a smart little travelling suit
which is shown among today's illustra-
tions. The suit comprises a three-quar-
ter-length coat and princess frock, the
latter cut very simply and trimmed only
with braiding, satin-covered buttons and
4 graceful little girdle. To match this
neat costume, in which on warm days
one might fare forth presentably with
. out a wrap. there is a loose coat, also
built on simple lines and trimmed with
braid and buttons. The coat has plenty
of roomy pockets-and every travelling
coat should have-and as means or
