PENSIONS IN EUROPE.


Girls who are alone will do well to
investigate carefully the reputation of
every pension they contemplate as a
residence while abroad, says Ruth
Cranston. PROSECUTING estab ish rents
are often unpleasant. the widest meth
DDS being employed to gain the sub
ject's confidence and eventually to
change his faith. But the average PEN
sion is safe, convenient, cheap and
agreeable.
Americans often grumble at what
they term the constituencies graft
practised by foreign landladies on their
guests. They object to being urged to
visit special dressmakers, shops, pnysi-
clans, cleaners and confectioners, who
naturally give the patrona a commits
sion for recommending them. And they
object to being charged two cents COM
mission every time they send a servant
to mail u letter. But the initiated and
seasoned pensionnaires merely laugh at
these little games.
There are so many ~kindnesses to bal
anee the small ruses that one can af-
ford not to notice them. Servants are
always ready to brush and clean ones
clothes, expecting no other fee than the
usual s per cent. on ones departure:
moreover, they look to ones comfort in
a truly refreshing fashion. Come home
late for tea, and you will find a cup of
tea on your table with some fresh
toast. Run down in the morning, leav-
ing your room at skies and sevens, and
you find it as neat as a pin on your
return.

Mother Care of Children s Health


Hest childhood, until such matters are
i~nculcated as habits and are practised
involuntarilys-
Another point which falls upon the
mother to attend to, unless she has a
competent nurse. is the question of
towels, face cloths and tooth brushes
for tho individual members OF her
family.
AS soon as a child needs toilet arti-
cles, that Is from the day of its birth,
it should have a separate supply.
A scarcity of towels Is ~inexcusable,
but I fear many mothers are thought
less in the matter of towels and face
cloths.
The shampoo is a sore trial to i'm
patient youth. but the hair and scalp
must be periodically cleaned II the hair
is to be kept in a healthy condition.
In summer. particularly. when small
heads are left bare and sun and dust
play their part. to say nothing of salt
baths, mothers must struggle with re-
fractory heads even in the freedom of
vacation tipe.
1t is mother who must watch for the
breaking out of pimples. which so often
mortify the growing girl or boy. and
insist on treatment in the early stages
IL the skin is to retain its youthful
beauty.
AS the trouble is largely from faulty
diet, mothers influence is needed to en-
courage abstinence from longed-fa
dainties. If the trouble comes from a
rundown condition. from oyer-study or
rapid growth or lack of fresh air, it is
mothers place to find the cause or con-
suit the family physician before the
skin is permanently coarsened and

Choosing Children; Stories


A T twilight when the days work is done, the hour for telling stories is
a perhaps, the happiest Of the day. Then a chnd's sympathy is thu keen

tacta and insight, her influence may be far-reeching.
Perhaps there is no better educational factor than the story if well told

should De ddacuc nor should the moral be too pointed. 1t must be subuy
handled. and the child himself, through his interest inc enthusiasm, should
discover the underlying truth.
The development of a child is com parable to the progress of the race 50
it may be a good suggestion 20 begin with nature myths stories of the SUI
and the mighty agents that influence the world, Fairy tales may follow,
where some outside agent performs the miracles, the child himself lot reaHz-

stories of heroes, when TIL knight is the doer OF mighty deeds, he then be-
gins to realize his W ability and power to perform great acts

MOTHER love is so great that it Is,
AVA fortunately, never overwhelmed
by the responsibilities of motherhood.
Physically, mentally and morally the
little folks depend upon mother for
the greater part of their preparation
and instruction in life, nor does this
dependence end with babyhood.
Through childhood and adolescence,
and often after manhood and woman-
hood arc attained; a good woman re-
joices to feel that mothers advice can
be freely sought and will be freely
given.
Particularly is it a mothers duty to
watch over diet and physical well-being
and in this matter she is supreme.
She understands the constitutions Of
her children and their needs as no one
else can do, and all this comes directly
within her province of the household.
How many young girls with bad
compilations wish hat they had lis
tened to mothers warnings in carrier
DAYS. and had o INDUCED in so much
candy, butter and late hours, but had
substituted fresh air and the like.
1t is a sad matter when a young maj
or young woman can say with truth
that Mother ought to have warned
me. but she did not. 1t is all her
fault"
Sound. healthy bodies have much to
do with sound, healthy minds and
morals, and it is those who have ben
judiciously looked after in youth who
