The boys and girls of this sunny
land spend Easter morning in church.
If they live in or near Rome they will
surely go to st. Peters. the largest
church in the world. There they see
thousands of lighted candles, affairs
covered with lovely flowers, and to
their ears wonderful music softly
floats. After the service is over the
whole congregation pours out on to
the square facing the church, and
turning looks up at a balcony over
the middle doorway. Here a figure is
seen dressed in beautiful robes 1t Is

hand thousands of heads bow to re-
ceive his solemn Easter blessing

as well as TO develop young girls.
Il want TO see the play instinct culti-
vated also, for too few of us posses it:
in fact many of us have outgrown it
completely. and men and women who
do not know how to play lose much

freshing in life. The girl who knows
how to play and to play in the right
spirit can not fail to be bright, cheer
full and generous
The speaker was DR. Wood, director
of physical training at Columbia uni

how to develop beauty, strength and

best way to accomplish this end If
girls play games they must be gener-

know right from wrong, and all the
time they are playing their minds are

training that has long been neglected,
but one which I believe will have an
important influence on all physical
work of the future"
1t is difficult to lay down hard and
fast laws for the young girls physical

16 girls are acutely sensitive to many
bad and good influences which may af-

ture, for instance. eften develops at
this age. and it may be cured or aggra-
waited by the kind of physical training
the girl takes. In order to prevent the
increase of any such tendencies it is
always well to have girls undergo
thorough physical examination to learn
just how vigorous their exercises may
be without involving danger to them
selves. Not every girl can play bas-
ket ball for example; in fact, the num-
ber of eligible players is comparatively
small because the game is a constant
physical strain on the player. Yet for
those who are strong enough to join
teams and enter practice games 1t Of

1t is nonsense TO encourage young

idea is wrong. They should be taught

ers that spun silk is a low grade fabric
made from floss, injured cecoons, husks
and waste from reeling and bears the
same relation to pure silk as does the
cotton waste to cotton or shoddy to
wool.
If a saleswoman remarks that stock
ings are seamless she means to convey
the information that they are knitted
in one piece on a circular machine,
leaving an opening at the toe to be
looped together and that the shaping
of the leg, toe and heel is obtained by
steaming and then drying them on
boards OF proper form. To state that
stockings have French feet means
that they have their only seam
In the center of the sole. Eng
lish feet have two seams one on
each side of the sole. What is known as
full fashioned" hosiery is finished
with fiat seams, having selvage edges
throughout and knit in fat. separate
sections upon machines which auto
matically drop the requisite number OF
stitches at various points to make the
garment conform to the natural shape
OF the foot and lower leg. Trunks are
stockings between ordinary and opera
length, with a widening above the
knee and "out" sizes are those made
in extra width.

LDhdt a School Girl Should LDear

THE principal of any girls school
will be the first to find fault in an
extravagant outfit OF any Of her
pupils. but for the girls own sake
it is not fair to send her off to board
ing school with wardrobe Inadequate
to her needs. Costly and elaborate
costumes are quite out OF keeping even
for a member of the senior class, but
the rules and regulations of the mod
ern fashionable boarding school In this
country call for certain variety of
gowns for evening wear and one or
two smart street suits for the after
noon apart from the regulation waist
and skirt dresses for the schoolroom,
as well as the various accessories of
furs, hats, ulsters, raincoats. etc..
which go to make q winters trousseau
complete.
The school dress Is. of course, the
first consideration, as this is the gown
which out of the entire outfit receives
the most constant usage. If possible
there should be two suits for this pur-
pose, one coat and skirt to be worn
with separate waists of linen, silk or
French flannel, and the other for ex-
tremely cold weather of serge, cash
mere or cheviot worn underneath a
fur or fur lined wrap during the regu-
lar morning walk. These suits should
be OF fairly dark color-red. navy blue,
green or brown--the dress having an
easily detachable white lace or tucked
lace yoke and cuffs and the separate
bodices worn with embroidered white
linen collar and cuff sets finished with
lace or with tie or jabot at the throat.
A light weight plaid gown made on
the old order of shirt waist dress and
worn with white turned down collar
and cuffs makes an excellent school
dress, and will give relief from the
inevitable shirt waist and skirt, be-
sides which plaids are to be worn again
this year to no small extent.
Short sleeves look singularly out of
place in a schoolroom, and while II
may be some trouble to stitch on fresh
white cuffs each morning, still a sim
pie dark shirt waist or bodice Is so
greatly improved by this means that
the slight bother is well repaid. Some
few of the long sleeves are now so fin
ished that a narrow edge of white
ruching Is alone necessary, and this
will, of course, remain fresh somewhat
loonger than the wide cuff, but seldom
looks so attractively trim and neat.
The smartest coat and skirt costumes
for young girls have either plated or
circular skirt and a three-quarter semi
fitted jacket. made quite simple with
full length sleeves and fiat collar and
revers of velvet or of cloth few

deniably attractive, usually belong to
an indolent woman who is void of am

with her square fingers may console
herself with the reflection that such
extremities are supposed to Indicate a
methodical mind; the one whose broad
fingers are sometimes a modification
should remember that they are a sign
of ability and energy in addition to
that fairy godmother gift. tact.
The first point to be considered in
the care of the hands is perfect clean
nness. This may be insured by wash
ing them every morning in soft water
mixed with oatmeal and soap and
rinsing them with boracic acid and
water. the greatest care being devoted
to the temperature of the LIQUID as ex-
cessive heat or cold is destructive to
the beauty or their texture. During
the day any pure soap will do for oc-
casional hand cleansings. but the last
thing at night the morning process
should be repeated. after which al
mond oil or cold cream should be
rubbed into the cuticle
Once week the hands should be
whitened with bath OF milk or water
containing a little carbolic acid and

any but very stubborn stain. which
will yield to gentle rubbing with a
