CHARACTER SHOWN BY DRESS
Value, az a Setting for the Personality,
Varies With the Moods Of
the Wearer.

No woman can afford to be indiffer.
ent in the matter Of costume, and all
women are more or less Influenced by
what they wear.
One damsel swaggers about in mas.
culine effects, heavy boots, stiff collar.
tailored coat. etc., another Is sweetly
feminine in fluffy ruffles. picture hat,
chiffons. laces and parasol, and the
indiffereice to appearances Is almost
invariably exactly what she looks
straight-laced, prim, severe, cold, in.
capable Of any flight of fancy, lacking
the power OF sympathy, and with no
intricate uncertainties to soften the
hardness of her character.
Equally true is the fact that gown
which Is extremely becoming today is
very mediocre tomorrow. Its value as
setting for the personality varies
with the moods Of the wearer. When
Encouragement. depression and gen.
eral feeling OF dullness envelops one
in a gray cloud the tendency is to don
black, gray or q dull brown gown.
Such choice Is great mistake, tend
ing to accentuate the gloom about the
wearer. Crush such a choice under
foot and choose instead the liveliest
dress in your wardrobe. Something
with red. brilliant green, bright blue
or any vivid tone.

NEW JERSEY HAS TEXT BOOK
Children Are Taught to Read by
Linking Names With Objects
Principle 10 Not Different.

A New Jersey woman has designed
a new kind OF textbook to teach small
children how to read. Its general
principal is the same as that Of all
books of its kind. but 1t goes step
farther. For instance, a page Is d..
vided into four parts and each part
has tho picture Of an animal In It.
with the name Of the animal printed
beneath. Thus far 1t Is like the old
style book. in that 1t teaches the
child the name by association with the
object. There are separate sheets Of
paper, however, with perforations
along which they can be torn in part
and bearing also the names Of the
various animals in the illustrations.
The child, therefore. looks at the pic.

these considerations would tend to
keep low their proportion Of accepted
