Mrs. Theodore North Mclaughlin, Sec
retarv of the District of Columbia branch
of the American Red Cross, today an
nounced the following additional stations
where Red Cross seals will be placed on
sale Immediately: Smoot-Jelleff Com
pany: Velati's on 9th street; Dyer &
Fisher, 9o11h New York avenue; w. D.
Brace, Both and NJ streets northwest; NJ.
Philipsborn, and Hattie NJ. Shacklette,

The sales reported today from the

Excels in Technique.

So far as technical achievement goes,
none excels William NJ. Paxton of Bos-
ton, whose genre entitled The New
Necklace has, it must be confessed,
many excellent qualities. In this paint
ing, which is, by the way, very similar
to paintings by the same artist recently
acquired by the Worcester Art Museum
and the Metropolitan Museum, New York,
one sees textures beautifully rendered.
The picture has, furthermore, colorful
quality, but it is after all neither more
nor less than a painting of still life
the figures as living beings do not signify.
The very faultlessness of its expression
initiates against it's force. The painter
has left nothing to the imagination while
exhausting the resources of his subject,
and has produced a picture which excites
admiration, but does not arouse emotion
or prove convincing.
somewhat on this order, though a trifle
more personal and less suave. His Girl
With Roses" has much charm. Frank w.
BenSon's pictures are, on the other hand,
quite the antithesis of this. Painted out
of doors in a flood Of light, they pay little
heed to the manner of speech and place
all emphasis on ultimate result-an effect
His picture of a group Of young people
on the grass is fresh and spontaneous: it
is realistic and at the same time artful,
but one may rightly question whether 1t
was not the sunlight as it fell on the
back of the white bench that primarily
engaged the painters interest.

THE STORY OF MUssENTOUCHIT.

By the time baby was twelve
months old she had learned many
things. She could say kitty" to the
little soft ball of a cat, and 'toVe"
and burn, for once she had put
her hand against the hot stove and
she had never forgot the pain of the
big blister that came on the delicate
hand she knew the moon and
the stars and the trees.
About this time she heard a long,
queer word many, many times day.
The word was Mussentouchit.
Baby wondered who Mussentouchit
could be. The strange thing lived in
the bureau drawers. Baby knew
that, for the moment she got her lit
tie busy hands into mammals draw
er, somebody would say, "Mussen
touchit."

the moment baby set the wheel 60
Ing, "Mussentouchit" was screamed
in her ear.
1t lived in the tall jar that stood
body in the room shrieked "Mussen-
touchit" when baby put up her hand
to touch the jar.
In the corner of the parlor there
was glass globe half filled with wa
ter. In the globe lived three little
goldfish. Baby was very fond Of
climbing into chair to see the tiny
goldfish dart across the pretty lake.
But, whenever she put her fingers in
to the globe to touch one Of the pref
ty creatures, somebody screamed,
"Mussentouchit."
This went on till baby was two
years old. There was no word she
heard so often as the long queer
word, "Mussentouchit."
Mussentouchit was everywhere
in the shining books on the parlor
table; in the flower-beds; among the
roses; even in mammals work-basket
the strange thing lived, and, if baby
but took up reel Of silk or cotton,
there was "Mussentouchit."
One day baby found herself by

forgot the little. prying, restless
darling. This was her chance. Up
went the chubby legs into a chair
that stood near the goldfish globe.
Poised on the rounding cushion, ba-
by reached far over to touch the
goldfish. In reaching, she lost her
balance and fell. dragging the globe
to the floor. There was a crash, a
scream, rush, and mamma was on
the spot. Baby was picked up, kiss

A MOTHERS DUTY,

Here are few practical ways in
which the average woman can protect
her home from disease and raise its
moral and physical standard.
By refusing to be ignorant. En-
lightenment, the watchWord of the
twentieth century, must be written
over her heart. She can refuse to be
blinded by appearances; it is in her
power to demand true knowledge OF
the facts surrounding her; torpor and
apathy must be unknown in her
home.
By stirring up her husband and
sons to vote and take an active in
terest in civic betterment. She can
influence her city and her times
through them.
By placing her children under the
care of a reputable physician, and
abjuring patent medicines, headache
cures, and soothing syrups as dan
gerous.
By intelligently studying the ques-
ton of food supplies
0-' "ASA y VIC are SAN
itary, and as far as possible only
such articles as are protected by the
pure food laws.
BY boiling all drinking water
where there is the slightest doubt of
Its purity, and all milk in hot
weather if advised by the physician.
BY demanding cleanliness and
fresh air in every department of her
home at whatever cost.
By screening her house from flies
and informing her children of the
menace they are to life, showing how
easily typhoid and other virulent dis
ease germs are carried upon their
feet and wings.
By insisting upon fourteen hours
of sleep daily for her children. This
sleep taken in well-ventilated room
and upon a clean bed in itself will
protect the child from a faded, over
tired nervous system, one of the
great dangers of city life today.
BY acquiring a knowledge of the
fundamental facts of physiological
history, so that she is able, when the
time comes, to open for her children
the mysterious door of self. leading
