FR0CKS FOR THE SMALL GIRL
Best Results in Dressing Children
Achieved When the Garments
Are Made at Home.

Every mother desires to see her lit
tie girl dressed attractively. She can
accomplish this by making their
frocks herself or with the help of a
seamstress Materials can be bought
for such small price now that every
young miss should be provided with
one or two new dresses to carry her
over to the season when cloth frOcks
are needed
One pretty little model is made OF
pink dotted lawn trimmed with bands
of Swiss eyelet insertion, 1t is a one
piece model, closing at the left side
and having square neck. The neck
is finished with a band of the inser-
ton, which continues down the side of
the front, where the dress opens and
is used for a belt and cuffs.
An embroidered guimpe with long
sleeves is worn with it if desired. An
other frock of blue and green plaid
has a plain blue bingham yoke cut
square and trimmed with rows of white
cotton soutache braid. Cuffs and a
belt are the same The material is
laid in three box plaits in front and
also in the back, which fall straight to
the hem. The sleeves are short and
slightly full, giving plenty of play for
the little arms.
A frock of blue and white polkadot-
ted percale. has shaped bib yoke of
plain blue, which extends over the
shoulders and is edged about with two
rows of white linen braid. Deep shaped
cuffs trim the long, full sleeves. The
| hem of the skirt is formed with five
inch band of plain blue, with the top
edged with braid. The bodice is quite
plainly cut and joins the box plated
! skirt with a narrow belt of braid
trimmed blue A shallow guimpe hav-
ing a high collar is worn with this
/ dainty and sensible frock.

this c..-lp will not be needed. and the
length may be used to form additional
bows and ends. The illustration gives
an idea of the completed jabot.

Japan,s Economic Position

Japan's population is increasing at
the rate of over 100000 a year. About
40 years ago when the population was
17,OO0,00 the total foreign commerce
amounted to less than $22,00O,OOO. At
present with population of over So
100000 Japan's annual business with
the outside world aggregates $4st ,O00.-
900, and the steady increase in both
population and foreign trade seems
destined to continue. The possibility
therefore of building up permanent
trade relations with Japan is reason
ably assured. During the last ten
years, however, Japan has imported
from America an average of less than
S30,000.000 worth Of goods a year. vet
in the matter of exports America con
tinues to be Japan's chief western
customer.

Large black velvet hats, stretched
over stiff frames, are trimmed with
what looks like nothing more nor less
than the fat, chunky cord and tassel

goes around the crown once and is tied
in a knot at one side. the ends finish

There are times when every woman
needs to press a seam or darn or a

always convenient to get a hot iron

small pressing board. which can be
carried in the trunk, makes a most &C

Irish Version of Old Prayer.

The universal night prayer of the
children, beginning Nov l lay me
down to Sleep is only about thou
sand years older than Professionalism
although many OF the misinformed
appear to believe that it is Of Pro-
testant origin. This DID, old Catholic
prayer runs back to the golden time
when Fire was Erie. and there have
been wilder surmises than this; that
st. Patrick taught it to the children
of the High King at Tara, that st.
Columkille bore it to Iona and that st.
Aidan carried it from Iona to Eng
land when he founded Lindisfarne
Abbey. In one form or another the
little prayer has descended through
the ages from mother to child among
those conservators of tradition, the
Irish peasants. In the days of that
precursor of Henry WILL, the irreli-
gious, dissolute William Rufus-that
Is to say, in the eleventh century
the old baby prayer was suddenly pre-
scented at court. 1t was at a time
when the corrupt monarch lay dan
gerously ILL., He had banished st.
Anselm and Anselm's clergy, and in
the hour of mortal need he was with
out spiritual help. Trembling for the
salvation of his soul, he commanded

pray for him. They knelt and NUT
tered some jargon. The King would
not be satisfied: he ordered them to
pray audibly. But these, his chosen
friends and flatterers. were of his own
impious stripe; not one of them could
say an Ineligible prayer. At last
they bethought them of a little page
who had but lately come to court, and
who had been observed and Knocked at
his night prayers. The child was
brought to the Kings bedside; he
knelt and prayed:
Matthew. Mark, Luke and John.
Bless the bed that lie on!
There be four corners to my bed;
There be four angels overspread;
Two at my head, two at my feet,
To be my guardians while l sleep
And if die before l wake,
Sweet Mary's Son, my soul pray
take!

much shorter:
Now lay me down to sleep.
