annoying question, he was quite his bet

countenance, and with soft white hands,

let fall some of the parti-colored tokens

At Clayton's side, Dunwody. younger,

thing of a contrast. Both these gentle

BROCADES In THE

Among Model Gowns.

Brocades continue among the hign

have made a great showing among the
model costumes that have been pre-
pared and duplicated many times for
the English coronation ceremonies.
These very expensive materials have
registered a great success.
Combinations of color with gold as
well as silver threads are seen in very

silver, and steel metal threads have
been greatly employed for the court
trains of presentation gowns.
A number of the large Paris houses
have ordered exclusive patterns in
these metal brocades. Worth has

One of the most interesting patterns
is the Prince OF Wales feathers, with
broad bands of ribbon running from
one group of feathers TO another to
form the design. This pattern is exc
cuted in gold or silver threads on a
delicate colored satin. otherwise per-
fectly plain. The fabric seems almost
and so striking is the design.
Another interesting pattern shows
great stalks of the French feur-de-lis
tied with ribbons, the ends Of which
pass from one bunch to another.

Berries are very plentiful and are very
good food-only they ought not to be
served to children unless the seeds are
extracted. That is, they may be cooked
and the pulp and juice only given to the
children. Seeds are indigestible, and
there is possibility that they may
lodge in the appendix.
The truth of the matter is that all
foods at this time of the year are nour-
ishing if prepared properly. The great
mistake made is that we do not take
time to prepare them. Especially is this

Food Not Masticated.
Nine out of ten children, perhaps, do
not know how to chew their food prop

given to the digestive organs, which
are unable to cope with them. Espe-
cially is this the case with uncooked
fruits.
