Chilblains

D. ]. Fan interested reader seeing
upon several occasions, treatment given
by me for chilblains, has been good
enough to add to my remedies the three
following treatments, which she highly
indorses:
% Take one-half pound Of lard. boil
in water ten or fifteen minutes, take on
the stove and let stand until cool; then
remove the lard from the top OF the
water and mix with II r(tha lardD as
much sugar of lead as you can put on
the point of a common dinner-knife.
Apply to the afflicted part every night
Just as you would any other ointment
(2) Give the feet a good soaking In
water as hot as you can bear 1t; have
alongside your foot tub a pitcher OF
ice-cold water; and as you lift your
feet from the hot water dash the cold
water over them, then wipe dry. Two
or three applications WILL not only cure
the chilblains, but give one warm feet
for the winter.
80 II made a strong solution Of white
oak bark as hot as l could bear, and
bathed my feet every night before retir-
ing. It made a perfect cure had
been troubled so much that l used to
dread the cold weather on that account !;
my feet would tester and be SO swollen
and sore that l could not wear shoes.
Now, / have no trouble: have had no
chilblains since / applied this remedy
a good many years ago..

a superstition. Select the month which
suits your convenience. Artificial flower
decorations for the wedding are not
in good taste. 1t is better to decorate

WOMAN'S VOICE AND

Dominating Tones of the
Mothers Voice Makes or
Mars Family Life.
By FRANCES CARROLL.

clinCs to the walls and to the draper1es,
this subtle, sensitive, Intangible thing
We call atmosphere, usually created out
of a Woman's voice.
1 have opened the front door of GER
tain homes to be greeted instantly by
an atmosphere of depression-a limp,
spineless atmosphere which suggested
on the instant the whine which had
made ii.
This is the atmosphere of a home ir.
which is heard continuous complaints
and winnings and expressions of dis
content.
Nothing CHEEKY or bright can live side
by side with a fault-finding voice.
A visitor in such a house heaves a
sigh, of relief when she gets out of 1t
into the cold fresh air of the out-of-
doors again.
Just as unfortunate is the habit of
speaking in the high strident tone
which breeds an atmosphere of protest
1t is difficult for any inmate of a
home in which such a voice r lies to do
anything happily and without antag-

CHILDREN BEGGARS
COMMON TO TINES
Commercial Life Leads to
Tendency That Harms
Little Brains.
By ELLA WHEELER WILCOX.

TN THIS commercial age it is difficult
to find a child, in any walk Of life,
i who is not. to some extent, a beg
gar.
BY a beggar is meant a chad who
either asks outright or intimates a de-
sire for pennies or benefits Of a money
nature. 1t Is astonishing to find chill
dren Of well-to-do parents who make a
practice of obtaining nickels and dimes
in various manners from relatives, and
even acquaintances.
Such children are 50 numerous that
the exception, a child who is ready to
do a favor, run an errand or bestow a
courtesy upon an older person and re-
fuse a reward Of a money nature, is a
subject~of surprise and agreeable COM
ment.

n how Mime. Bernhard retains
| - her wonderfully youthful ap-
pearance comes the equally in
| teresting question, what does she wear
Nine. Bernhardt believes in individu-
| ality Of dress, and has demonstrated
| to thousands of women that gowns may
| be designed to suit each person which
are far superior in lines and construc-
| ton to the fiimsy creations sent over
from Paris each season-for our slavish
following. Does Sarah Bernhard wear
a hobble skirt, you ask? Certainly not
She is too much of an artist to array
herself in anything SO grotesque.
Some of Her
Artistic Gowns.
With equal sumptuousness Nine. Bern
hardt expresses her individuality and
| artistic supremacy in dressing, in pri-
vate life. The following are a few
gowns of hers which are truly poetic
creations.
A House Gown-This costume is a
waistiess robe of white satin, buttoned
from her throat to her toes; over this
and hanging gracefully from her shoul-
ders Is an over-robe Of filmy gray chif-
AOI4b CN6CO lIlIOdl 10 neelS Wlln
black fur. AS finishing touch to this
charming gown she wears gold slippers
A Luncheon Gown-This charming suit
is made of a soft neutral green velvet.
Both coat and skirt are simple in de-
sign, the former being quite short with
fiaring collar.
An exquisite blouse Of white chiffon
and lace, built high at the throat with
broad ruching reaching we'll above the
lobes of her ears and long frills of lace
extending over the bands, complete the
costume.
The only adOrnment worn with this
dress is a long gold chain with Laique
jewels at the end of 1t. A large toque
of brown fur, adorned by two ostrich
feathers dropping we'll over the right
shoulder, gives the finishing touch to
this al tistic creation.
A Reception Gown-Another costume
worn in everyday life is a loose gown
of blue satin. heavily trimmed with gold;
the collar is built high, with the broaI
ruching she so affects. A broad stole
of chinchilla thrown over the shoulders
and a toque of the same fur, relieved By
4 cluster of camelias, finishes this sump-
tuous costume.
Camille Dresses
Stunning Creations.
Gold Embroidered Net-Ravishing in
deed are her Camille dresses. Her
third act mystery is a lustrous white
satin princess gown. with a two-inch
border of bright green satin around the
hem and a cleverly knotted garniture of
the same color at the bosom. Over this
is worn a gorgeous half-fitted robe of
white lace which hangs gracefully
straight to the bottom of her costume,
parting in front to show the underdress
with every movement.
Another of the Camille frocks Is a
vision revealing the French gown crea-
tors skill. Its material is gold embroid-
cred net, the gown is simple in design,
giving the impression of long contir-
uous drapery of shimmering gold-d
dress of poetry and costly magniflcence.
With this costume is worn a quantity
of rings and chains of antique jewels
and workmanship, all somber in toDe
and richness.

Familiar Qualities
Of the Children.

One expects to find the mercantile
spirit, and is not surprised to find sn
element Of the CRATER in the street
urchins and the poor children of our
larger cities, but we ought not to be
SO accustomed to these qualities in the
children Of the comfortable, and even
affiuent, citizens Of America
In a country place where at least one
hundred children, attend the public
school, but one OF these can be men-
toned as absolutely exempt from this
peculiarly American trait. Asked to do
a favor which required something less
than five minutes Of his time for a
neighbor, the boy astonished the lady
by refusing to take the proffered nickel
on his return. When urged to accept
the trife, the lad replied: ''I am only
too glad to do this for you, but 1 never
take money from any one except my
parents"
Parents In
Moderate Circumstances.
The parents Of this child were in mod
est circumstances, and the boy had ney
er enjoyed the amount Of spendin:
money common to his everyday asst
ciateS Yet these associates, both boy
| and girls, were always ready to seiz
what was offered, and when not offereI
to wait about In a most suggestive man
ner, and when waiting about would not
suffice, to intimate their desire to b..
paid for their services.
It is, of course, an easy matter fC
thoughtless elders to make drudges
little beasts of burden of children b
continually asking them to do gTatuitou
favors; but the right kind Of parent
ought to be able to regulate this matte
with Justice to the child, while teachin
their children the pride and sef-respe
x1r,1g xynnl6 them from hACOr1
ing beggars.
II a boy wishes It understood that he
Is a sort of private messenger, ready to
run errands on a certain cash basis, all
well and good. Let him make the mat
ter known and have 1t generally under
stood. Otherwise he should be too proud
to enter into the commercial world be-
fore he is fitted for it, and certainly too
proud to swell the lists Of the well-to-do
Juvenile beggars.
The Washington times., 1911-02-09
Every Woman
Should Select Tones.

Then, again, one finds the patronizing
voice which strikes at the roots of in
dividuaity. creating an atmosphere of
subsection.
The home atmosphere is so dependent
upon the voice of the home maker that
every woman should listen attentively
TO herself speaking many times day
and pick out the undesirable qualities
in her own voice just as she would in
the voice of an outsider, eliminating
them through constant practice of the
beautiful tone qualities that tend TO
make the CHEEKY, honey" atmosphere.
AS this is a matter under Individual
control there is no reason why home
maker should permit herself to fall into
the habit Of using tones which create
depression.
The house that is filled with a wom-
ans glad song as she goes about her
daily work has always a CHEEKY atmos-
phere.
The speaking voice that is low and
musical has a control over the emotions
that is wonderful The expression of
anger is impossible in soft, quiet tones.
Irritability never enters the door of a
home where a woman uses no COM
planning tones.
The Washington times., 1911-02-09
Others Quick to
Copy Mothers Voice.

And those others of her household
with whom she comes in daily contact,
for whom she gives her life, how easily
and quickly they fall into the habit of
mothers voice tonesl
How readily children adopt the high,
strident, impatient, protesting tone
when they have it for a daily dietI
Just as easily they learn from her to
whine and complain-or again allow
tones Of condescension to creep into
their young voices.
And when father comes home from his
office the home atmosphere, created by
the dominating home voice, is the first
thing of which he is conscious when he
opens the front door
If the woman he has chosen as the
inspiration of his life and work greets
him with a voice that rings out strong
and clear with hope, energy, life, and
its joy, the cares of the day slip quickly
from his mind, and he finds his home a
true haven of peace and rest.
The voice is potent factor in home
happiness.
Wise is the woman who studies its
tones, and has a care that all of the
sunshine and none of the gloom of the
day creeps into her home.
