Striped materials are just as much liked
for the little tots as they are for the older
folk This dress shows serge with white
hair line stripe used to great advantage.
The skirt and the front OF the body por-
tion are cut on the cross so that the ma
terial makes its own trimming, although
there are little frills OF ribbon that give a
pretty touch. The body portion is slightly
long wasted and the skirt is just q straight

would be pretty so made, and bordered
challis would be pretty for dress occasions.
AS the skirt is straight, it could be cut so
that the border would finish the edge.

Miss Helen Varick Boswell Tells Of
Other Necessities in Canal Zone.

Cookery books are the latest invention for
souvenirs In the Panama Canal Zone
These books, which were compiled by the
members of the womens club, with the
help of successful bachelor housekeepers,
and intended originally for domestic cir
culation, are now prominent in the souvenir
shops, and not tourist feels that 1t Is
proper TO go away without one.
Such is the report Of Miss Helen Varick
Boswell. the mother of the canal clubs,
who returned a few days ago from her
visit TO he club she formed three years
ago. OF course, the clubs are doing other
things, and Miss Boswell told the Woman S
Forum, of which she is president, all about
il yesterday They are so influential, II
appears, that anything they say goes.
They have even converted Uncle Sam to
the use Of paper drinking cups.

ciate the danger II they were unprotected.

loway jail, however, she had to scrub the
floor and wash dishes and make her bed
and go to chapel every morning. She
wasn't a very swift scrubwoman, however,
as she is a fral little thing, with wee hands,
so they let her sew in the afternoons. She
can make sheets and plain clothes. and
even mems shirts.
Like all modern domestic experts, she had

London jail too. but she confessed 1t was
not very practical.
I'VE had three pints Of cold water a
day" she said I'VE could wash with II
or drink it, just as we chose. The book
told US a bath every day was necessary for
health and beauty There was one piece
of soap for the floor, the tin dishes we ate
from and our faces. II told US that fresh
air and exercise were essential. When l

All the English suffragettes have not had

AIDS "LITTLE MOTHERS"
]. H. Johnston Talks of His
Friends, Whitman Included.

In the house of the Little Mothers Aid
Association. at No. 2S6 Second avenue-the
old house where, William Makepeace Thack-
erav slept when he visited New York, In
1855. IL being the British Embassy at that
| time. as two stone lions In front still bear
witness-J II. Johnston talked yesterday
about his first glimpse OF Thackeray and
about other famous persons he has known.
Mrs Johnston was the founder Of the
Little Mothers Aid Association. II was q
boy Of seventeen in 1856, working for SAL
ary OF S4 90 a week, so / couldn't afford
ticket for Thackerays lecture" Mr. john
ston said. "but went TO the church where
he was speaking and begged the doorkeeper
to let me have just one peek at the great
man, which he did. When Charles Dickens
came TO America I was able to pay my way
to hear him read The Christmas Carol
and the impression | carried away from
that reading was that Dickens had tho
second biggest pair Of ears had ever seen.
The biggest were Walt Whitman's."
Whitman stayed with the Johnstons al
their home, at No. 1l3 Fast 10th street, for
moLths at a time. In 1875, when Whitman
was III, Mr.. Johnston asked Robert q. In
gersoll to speak at his funeral, but he
didn't die then; he lived long enough for
MT. lHSeISON 10 give DeNeAt lecture
which brought the old poet SS59.
walt was able TO be at the dinner at
which thirty of his old friends gathered
after the lecture" Mr. Johnston said, land
10 argue with Ingersoll about the immor-
tality of the scul.
Robert ! remember Walt said. I
don't know about others, but | shall wake
again after death Walt Ingersoll said,
II anybody wakes after death / shall-and
| hope l SHALL"
Sojourner Truth stayed at the Johnston
home, too, and the speaker described how
she folded up her six feet of dusky height
on low stool by the fire and unconcerned-
ly smoked a short black pipe she pulled
from her garter.
Mr.. Johnston knew Laura Keene, the
actress, snd her daughter, Mrs a. NJ, Row
son. who gave him a blood-staned piece
of the dress Miss Keene wore when she ran
from the stage of Ford's Theatre 10 Lin
coins bcX, after the shot was fired from
which he died. and held his head in her
lap.
Mr. Johnston had the bit OF cloth with
him yesterday TO show TO his guests, and
also letters from Dickens, joaquin Miller
and many others.
Mrs. Clarence Burns presided There was
music by Miss Camille Birn baum, the So
prano, and Winssont RhCdressky, the vio-
linist. a luncheon was served afterward.
