The camera man, in most instances,
has caught the tiny tots in very win

poses. so that the chAdren's mothers
may feel satisfied that they will be we'll
represented by their pictures when II
comes TO the awarding of prizes.
Mr.. Bachrach is well known for his
work with children, and he is taking
particular pains with the pictures he is
making for the contest, that they may
present baby at his best. He is just
about the busiest man in Washington
just now, for his studios are crowded
with mothers and children from morn

MOTHERS REGRET THAT GOODNESS OF
CHILDREN WILL NOT BE CONSIDERED
MISTAKES OF ACTORS
IN DENVER TRAGEDY
Are Too Often Made in Simi-
lar Cases.
By ELLA WHEELER WILCOX.

There is something besides gener-
osity and benevolence needed in the
phtlanthropist who undertakes to bet
ter the world.
Good sense and wisdom and an un-
derstanding Of the law Of karma are
all needed.
This was newly borne in upon my
mind as 1 read of the peculiar life Of
Mrs. Patterson, now on trial for kill
ing her husband.
Mrs. Patterson was a little child in
a small Western town, and her beauty
attracted a man who was travelling
through the locality.
Without question the mans first i'm
pulse was merely altruistic.
He thought the little girl of ten
might be made into a cultured and
lovely woman II she were taken from
her lonely and poor environment, and
educated. So. having a surplus of this
worlds goods, he arranged with her
parents to- send her to Europe: and
there he gave her every opportunity to
study and acquire the education and
culture OF the modern young woman
Good Impulse that Ends in Evil.
We have no right to take those born
to poverty and loneliness and place
them in the midst of luxury and ex-
citement.
Our work is to try to better their
condition where they are; to give them
new opportunities: to enlarge their
ideas. and to inspire them with cour-
age to go about the work of transform
ing their own lives.
Had this little girl been sent to some
neighboring school: had she been
helped by books and wise letters; had
she been led to think of the great world
beyond and of the opportunities wait
ing in It for those who were educated
and ambitious to make a place for
themselves; had her guardian so awak-
ened her young mind to gradual
growth. then indeed the work of God
would have been done. and her pres
ent woes would undoubtedly have been
averted
But instead she was wrenched like
some plant from it's garden spot and
suddenly transplanted in foreign soil.
And with no careful gardener TO train
her tendrils or prepare her for the fierce
sun which was soon to shine upon her.
No human being has a right to so in
terfere with the work of 'Karma, -
which is the work Of God.
Each of us is born into the place and
condition which we selected in former
lives by our thoughts and actions.
1t is the business of the philanthropist
and the worker for the worlds better
ment to weed the wretched gardens OF
the earth, so that all plants and vines
therein may have a chance to grow and
thrive. But 1t is not his business to take
away all these plants and attempt to
make them into hothouse blooms. 1t
cannot be done.
And when the effort is made too often
the little wild flower develops into an
abnormal and useless growth.
Help people to help themselves by i'm
proving their surroundings and showing
them how to grow out OF them.
But do not wrench them out yourself;
they are not ready for the sudden
change.

DRESS EPIGRAMS DISPENSED
BY NOTED FASHION WRITER

garter, which is generally too short and
too tight, tending to throw the figure
of its natural center by pulling the body
forward"
And how about color in dress?" she
was asked.
That depends on the woman, of
course. If the hair is coal black she
should never wear black or blue ol
white for the face. The blue of her
eyes, the yellow Of her hair and the pink
of her cheeks makes the blue-eyed blond
the easiest of all women to dress. The
hOmely girl should get a bit of dash in
her clothes.
The stout woman must wear clothes
that suggest long lines. She must moi
look as if she were poured into her gowns
for in that case she is always sure to
spill over, and in the wrong place. The
thin woman must avoid the straight UP
and down lines. She will find tuniC
skirts and fichu and large collars becom-
ing"

THE NEW WAY TO WEAR A SASH

At the theater the other night one of
the pretty actresses wore her sash in a
way that at once took the fancy Of the
girls in the audience.
1t looked complicated, but was moth
ing more than the well-known Geisha
bow worn in front instead of at the
back. The sash Is made of stiff wide
ribbon and the bow is arranged in per-
fectly fiat folds.
On one Of the actresses frocks this bow
was worn without ends; in another there
were long streamers falling almost to
the bottom of the dress, ending In
long jeweled tassel.
The effect of such a sash is so high
waisted that only the girl of slender
figure should attempt 1t.
A pretty notion as adopted by one girl
was to make the sash Of broad Persian
ribbon and wear her stock and jabot
with a Persian bordering to match.

Conspicuous dressing is a bid for favor

is something that is inharmonious and
out OF place; perhaps nothing more than
a glaring color or the poise of a hat.
Moderation is the golden rule for hats.
None too small, none too large, and al

but art remains.
"A French woman always looks nice

Very many American women lose inter-

They Want the Judges to
See the Little Codgers in
Their Own Homes, Where
Every Trick of Their In
fantile Trade Ends in
Conquest.

Smiling his way into everybody's heart,
comes Master Churchman Provost john
son into the contest of lovely babies.
One hardly needs the data that his
mother CNIrs. Murray T. Johnson. SlOS
P street, Georgetown), gives on the back
of his winsome picture to decide that
this little chap must be very prince
of good looks. He is three feet three
and a half inches tall, and weighs forty
eight and a half POUNDS, does this little
lad of not quite three years, and 1 am
told that he is as good as he is hand
some which is saying a good deal for
him. Don't you think so?
Mothers who have personally brought
the pictures of their dear babies to me
have made a point of their goodness.
Il would just like to see those judges
when they collect all the children's pic
lures and are ready to judge them, "
one loyal little woman told me yester-
day.
If Judges Could See Him at Home.
You see," she went on, there are a
lot of things a pictures doesn't tell. My
boys eyes are deep and p1ue and full OF
laughter, yet their color doesn't show at
all in his photograph. Then, he is just
the best little fellow. always happy and
merry. If only the judges could see him
at home I know he would win a prize" "
Why, there isn't a baby in the con-
test who, if one could but see them at
home where they rule more completely
than any mighty monarch has ever
done. one would be quite willing to trans
fer all of ones earthly possessions on the

The people who don't resent i'll
treatment usually receive 1t.
The worst misfortunes that we
have to bear are those for which
we can't blame some one else.
A man can be awfully ashamed

was sure he had a perfect right
to do If no one knew 1t.
The greatest recommendation

LITTLE CIGARETTE CASE
ATTRACTIVE FOR MONSIEUR

Intended to accompany his evening
suit, but useful at any time, the newest
wrinkle for Monsieur, is an attractive
little cigarette case of-what do you
think ?-moire silk!
They are quiet and not conspicuous
and will appeal to men of conservative
tastes. They are moderate in size, and
come in two styles, with or without a
safety match holder. OF course they are
very light in weight-and this is another
point to commend them.
Some are marked with metal initials.
but this, Of course, is a matter of in
dividual taste.
The girl or woman who is looking for
something new and different to give
her brother, father, cousin, or other
masculine relatives or friend will find
this a novel and inexpensive offering.
