WOMEN READERS
The Home Life.

One of the most difficult duties of
mothers is to make sure their children do
not meet undesirable acquaintance at
school, and the best way to avoid such
contingencies is to encourage boys and
girls to bring their young friends home
Then the parent can study the strangers
and should have no trouble in deciding
whether or not they suitable COM
panions.
All boys and girls are influenced by
their school friends, especially where the
latter are a year or two older. For
instance little boy always longs to
initiate a big one, and a small girl has
the same mental attitude toward her own
older friends. Therefore. it is of the ut
most Importance to know with whom
they associate, but how the undesirableS
are TO be eliminated is matter that
into consideration the individual temper
ament of the children.
Many mothers do not encourage their
children to play at home after school
hours because the young folks are noisy.
OF course, a parent need not expect the
little one will speak in muffled whispers,
for shouts are the natural manifestation
of youthful spirits. but they need not
yell, and a mother who has tact will
not find it hard to suppress a riotouS
game and substitute something quite as
amusing.
When undesirable friends have been
acquired, to separate a boy or girl from
them without at the same time making
children feel that the discrimination is
unjust, takes tact and watchfuness. For
active youngsters who are given to un-
derstand that certain boys or girls should
| not be played with may find the tabooed
children all the more attractive for the
faults they are supposed to possess, sc
it behooves mother to display the ut.
most caution in such exigencies.

To Tempt Appetite
of C0nvaIescent

The appetite of an invalid may be
tempted to an extraordinary degree by
having all dishes served as temptinly as
possible. Spotless linen, china which
shines and glass which is unclouded add
enormously to the attractiveness of the
meal and patient who is not hungry
may unconsciously be stimulated to eat
Above all other points, the most scrupu-
lous cleanliness must be observed, not
only in the food. but the dishes and the
way the food is placed on them There
should be no spot of sauce on the plate. A
"dribbled' effect of food is most unap-
petizing. On the same basis, if toast is
beneath the sauce it should have been
buttered on another plate, being then
transferred to the one on which it is to
be served. Otherwise there will be fine
crumbs. highly suggestive of carelessness
in preparation. One tiny bit of parsley on
the food will make it look much daintier.
When an invalid is not strong enough to
cut her own food 1t should be done before
the tray is brought to her, but In such a
way that 1t has no suggestion of small
pieces. A piece of toast may be buttered
and cut into cubes the bit Of meat or fish
being then placed on the pieces which are
held together. Fish is easily separated by
fork, SO that the convalescent may do
that herself, but chicken or anything else
in the meat line must be cut, taking care
that the bits. being pushed together, do
not appear messy"
All food should be covered in transit
from kitchen to invalid's room, that is
may be hot when eaten.
Never should tray be served without
having on it linen cover, embroidered
or plain. A tiny fresh napkin must ap-
pear each time, even if it is washed be-
tween meals. One flower, in tiny vase
or glass, will render the meal daintier
! The invalid's more rapid gain of
strength, through eating, will be welcome
payment for the labor given to making
her food tempting

same soap and pair of shoes or slippers
rot previously worn that dsy. The shoes
removed are to be put into the window to
air thoroughly before being put away.
After bathing the skin and Il iping care
fully, those sections which perspire most
are to be treated with a lotion. Wherever
the pores are most open the surface IS wet
with a mixture of One-half a dram of
betanapthol and four ounces of distilled
witch hazel. permitting it to dry on. This
is never to be used without first bathing
When the lotion is dry the same surface
is covered with powder made from oi.e-
half am ounce of powdered olea.e Of zine
and three drains of powdered 5oracic acid.
To check local perspiration there is
recommended a powder of one-half ounce
each of subnitrate of bismuth and pow
dered oleate of lead zinc. This is to be
used profusely after bathing.
Bathing, constant and never celsing.
and as frequent change Of garments IS
one can make are the two secrets of
checking extreme perspiration with its
dsagreeable elements.

Fads for Women.

When washing chamois or doeskir
gloves they should always be turned in
side out, fingers and all, while drying
for exactly the same reason that fine
wearing apparel is always dried wrong
side out. Flecks of dirt are always in
the air ready to settle anywhere, and
dampness always holds SOIL Especially
is this true Of kid and any kind of soft
leather. Very often, too, articles that
take some time to dry are apt to become
streaked with yellow or q dirty brown.
These streaks always appear on the
right, never the wrong side.
The newest scarf is not only smart but
extremely practical, and it is not neces-

for it if one is willing to do the required

one of which should be black, the other
