PREPARATION FOR RAINY DAY
Supply Of Clean, Dry Sand Will Pro-

Little Ones.

The outdoor sand pile is a time
honored institution, but out of doors
offers many other attractions. so we
improved on the idea.
A box was made, about nine inches
high. and in other dimensions just a
little smaller than the nursery bed. 1t
was fitted with casters, lined with a
pale green oilcloth, and box plait-
ing of green denim was put around the
outside with brass-headed tacks. Next

Inland the stormy day problem was
solved.
The little maid, less than year
old. when the box was first introduced,
was perfectly safe, and she never
seemed to tire Of its endless attrac
tons. Nearly all her toys were kept
there; old playing cards would stand
up in the sand to form houses and
fences; trains Of cars had much busi
ness to transact, and many hours
we're spent just ladling the sand into a
big, thick bottle with an old tin spoon
and pouring it out again.
The little occupant was taught from
the first that no sand was to 60 on the
floor, and we never had the least trou-
BILE even after the little sister came
to share the box few years later. In
deed, 1t proved the cheapest, safest
and best device that ever was invent
ed for keeping the little ones happily
entertained.

OF SUNDAY SUPPER
Chatting Dish Messes Now Seem Large

Evening Repast.

Time was when the Sunday night
supper was Of even more vital i'm.
portance than the midday dinner, es-
pecially in those towns and villages
where strict religious principles pro-
hibited cooking on the Sabbath.
1t was not considered wrong to mix
a pan of biscuits the night before and
bake them for supper. so that these
hot, puffy features of the meal. with
honey or some of mothers ounce pre-
serves or canned cherries, were look
ed forward to with joyous anticipa-

AS time passed, the stringent line
relaxed as far as cooking for supper
was concerned, and. in addition to
cold salads, there would always be
some hot dish, such as the real old
fashioned hash or scrambled eggs.
with creamed potatoes.
City life has changed all this. Even
the suburbanite who apes city ways
has the mahogany table cleared. the
doilies used in place Of the regulation
dinner cloth, and the chatting dish
placed in front of the hostess, the In
gradients at hand, and the lamp
trimmed and burning. From this she
turns out creamed chicken and ham,

other "messes"-her grandmother
would call them, as she wakes remin-

FAV0RS 0NE-PIECE DRESSES
School Principal Insists Garment
Is the Best Possible for the
Growing Young Lady,

The head of the biggest trade school
for girls in New York declares that
the present style of one-piece dresses
is the ideal costume for growing girls.
''The short-waisted style Of dress,
with it's wider girth at the high waist
line and its general looseness, hang
ing straight from the shoulder, is the
ideal sort of frock for young girl
to wear" the principal said. 1T is
not only comfortable, neat, easy to
put on and simple and pretty In cut,
but it has another immense advan,
tage, bigger than all of these, al
though these should be sufficient to
recommend it to mothers.
1T is cut in such a way that if a
girl is taught to carry herself upright,
walking with her body l.eld properly,
and sitting erect and without SLOUGH
ing, she need wear no corset. For a
girl who must have room to grow
and to breathe right, plenty OF space
is necessity, and a corset is not de.
sirable.
The philosophy OF the dress is
this: With a long-waisted dress, as
when a girl wears a skirt and a shirt
waist, the skirt is fastened tightly
around the smallest part Of the body
This prevents free breathing and with
this style some kind of corset is a
necessity.
But with the waist line higher
and as large around as the largest
part of the body. as is shown in what
is called the empire style Of gown
the unpleasant small-waisted effect
The arms and looks we'll II the girl
waist may be large. but it is not no
ticed. The skirt hangs in straight
lines from the larger line just below
the arms and looks we'll. If the girls
keeps her body erect and stands OF
sits in a graceful, even position, the
effect is excellent without a corset
The plan would encourage girls tc
take care how they stand or walk or
breathe. and this itself would be
good for them"

EnQIish War AeropIanes,

After long deliberation and much ex.
perimenting, England has finally &C.
knowledged the necessity of the aero.
plane in modern warfare, and has
placed it's seal of approval therein with
an initial order for sixty machines.
This number will be increased to one
hundred just as soon as a sufficient
number of sky pilots can be trained
to navigate them. To fully appreci-
ate the Importance which this arm of
the service has already attained, one
must note the appropriations for the
current year by the three great Con-
tinental powers. France will spend
$6,250,000, a sum sufficient to build a
very fair warship; Germany, $780,
900, and Britain, $1.5O0,O00. The to-
tai for three countries is $11,25O,OO0,
thus illustrating the increasing and
high cost of military li"iug.-Popular

THEIR new DOCTOR:
Excitement in MayviIle When Old
Physician Is SuppIanted by
Young Man.
By MILDRED CAROLINE GOOD
RIDGE.

There was great excitement In the
social circles of Mayville when the
successor to the practice of old Dr.
Cyrus Dali arrived. For forty years
the latter had been the chosen physl-
clan of the town. When he had sold
his practice to Dr.. Brian Eversley. a
young, handsome and wealthy mem
Der of the profession, all Mayville was
agog, and speculation and gossip held
the various social coteries In a kind OF
pleasant thrau.
The young doctor had purchased
The Oaks, beautiful estate near the
edge of the village. A maiden sister
was to be his housekeeper. When a
new automobile and some wonderful
house furnishings arrived, Miss Cyrille
Rushton, aged thirty, but passing for
twenty-five, as the real leader OF the
real social set of Mayville, was said
to brighten up at chance to once
more angle for a husband. When 1t
was further announced that the young
physician was philanthropically in
clined, Miss Breda Dorman, president
of the Ladies' Aid society, was In
transports of anticipation and delight.
The young doctor arrived, and he
was not a disappointment. He was
something more than handsome
earnest, affable and intellectual. He
was pleased at the gracious attentions
of Miss Rushton, and 1t seemed to
interest him IN listen tn the ceaSeleSS
chatter of Miss Dorman. High So
ciety shrugged it's shoulders at his
free dispensary" ideas for the bene-
fit of the poorer classes living over
on the flats. Still, an exhibition of
his skill in their own service caused
him to be received as a fit successor
to the old practitioner, Doctor Dali.
The Ladies' Aid society held weekly
meetings in an old store, which had
been neatly fitted up for them. A
Mrs. Fulton lived in apartments be-
