BE CHUMMY WITH
YOUR CHILDREN

Above all things, in training chill
dren let them learn quite early that
mother and father are their greatest
friends; that they, too, are pleased at
all their little joys, that sorrow are
sympathized with and naughtinesses
are treated kindly and not harshly.
II this is made plain while the child
is young. later on everything will be
brought to the parents and told to
them, and the value to both child and
parents is almost incalculable. School
pranks, mischief and misdeeds should
be told as well as pleasures and will
be If sympathy is present.
Let the little folks feel that, though
father may frown or punish a fault,
he is quite just and never hits out be-
cause he is cross Be the young
folks best pals and you and they
will never regret 1t.
Faults can be kindly corrected, dis
cipline and s~elf-control taught in
these quiet minutes of real confidence,
but do not let a child think that he
must not tell father or mother be-
cause they get cross and don't under
stand. Obedience must be taught,
and should be insisted on. but let 1t
be taught in a. reasonable common
sense Way-not by brute force

PARIS, June 10.

PARIS, June Is.
The first authentic information that the great de-
this fall coats of different materials and colors from the
skirts Will be worn with the plainest as we'll as the
richest ~tailor-made costumes.
The models which I have seen are SO beautiful and
the idea of a coat different from the skirt is such a
sensible and economical fashion that I am sending you
pictures of some Of them. Let no one make a mistake
In buying her fall costumes. Skirts are to be wider and
the handwriting on the wall warns against the straight
line. All the skirts I see over here are much longer
most of them lie on the floor two or three inches all the
way around. Cab hire is SO cheap in Paris that prac-
tically everyone rides who can afford to dress stylishly.
However, l do not think American women will give up
the freedom and comfort Of the short skirt. We are too
fond Of walking u-ntrammeled.
Poiret still clings to his narrow effects. carried out
with more or less oriental tendencies. No designer In
Paris has had more to say about the styles of all femi-
ninfty than Poiret during the last two seasons. He has
dash and originality and although he is almost too pro-
nounced to he taken up entirely by the conservative
American dresser, yet a touch from the great designing
house Of Poiret can be added to many gowns with
splendid effect.
Nine Paquin has not yet spoken, but 1t can be said
with confidence that she will bring out this fall some
modification of the pannier.
Nearly all the street coats I have seen so far ara
much more fitted to the figure than those Of last year.
Most of them are cut away in front as we'll Skirts
have all sorts Of unexpected ways of putting in full
ness. A swagger street frock from Berruerd illustrates
this. The skirt is Of black broadcloth, cut in the con-
ventional narrow manner, except on one side there is a
section of kilt pleats reaching from the belt to the hem.
The coat to be worn with this is of black and white
checked velvet well over the hips in length and fas-
tened with three buttons over the bust, from which it
is cut away. showing the skirt. The buttonholes are
made of white silk, and there are little arrowheads and
stitching Of white silk from the shoulder around to the
bust, on the front seam. which is used instead of a dart
to bring the coat in somewhat at the waist and obviate
the straight line. The collar and cuffs are white broad
cloth. The collar is made in Robespierre style. This
kind Of collar bids high for popular favor this fall.
The little hat worn with this tailored costume re-
minds one OF the oonnets worn by the little old ladies'

Youth This is a word that makes
everyone sit up and take notice. There
never was a child, or maiden of Is,
who was not admired IL she pos
sessed a fair amount of health, even
Il beauty were missing. The child.
robust and strong. full of color and
dimpies. Is a picture of youth. but the
maiden of 16 is truly a delight to the
eye.
She may have poor features; she
but there Is something about the age
that wins you. It 10 the lack Of self
pity in hat face; the perfect Joy OF
living, the wonderment she shows as
she looks out on the world which she
Is just entering.
A girl Of 16 is seldom biase; she
enjoys everything. for she has not
had time for the world-when In
school-and she Is just learning Of it's
wonders and feels that It Is a privi-
1ege to live.
She is seldom discourteous, for she
has not had the polish rubbed off in
her experience with mankind. She
thinks and has not absorbed the silly
phrases and. the hackneyed speech of
the world; &e is sincere and for this
reason the charm strikes to the heart
Nothing about her face is hard or
selfish. She has not reached that
point as yet.
What Is the difference between the
maid of 16 and IS? Just notice for
yourself. The young woman of Is
seems at least ZEN years older, in
sentiments, in looks and in her de-
meanor
She has grown accustomed to the
beauties of living. She has seen
everything and grown tired of it all.
Where she first saw the glitter she
now sees tawdry effects. She has
lived too much In one idea and prin-
cipally for self. That Ia the difficulty
with the maiden two years older. She
has become selfish and has fallen into
the u of many of her sisters, she
has become envious of those who can
enjoy more, and in her desire to get
ahead of others the strife has worn
her out in just a few months time.
One young girl of 16 was petite and
had a wealth, of Titan red hair. In
her cheeks were dimples and another
ii her chin. She was a picture Of
girlish beauty, the bloom was on the
peach and whenever she appeared
that little verse was recited, "a bud
from the rosebud garden of girls"
She certainly fitted in perfectly; al
though she might lever be called a
beauty. she was sweet sixteen and

ROUGE POT

self at the speech, there is too much
truth In 1t. The unrouged woman at
the theatre and at the fashionable
restaurant. at dances. teas and re-
ceptions. is in the minority. She does
look. as my little friend says,
strange"
/ am not one who looks on rouge
as a badge of wickednese. I may as
well say, right here. that If you
should look in q certain little silver
box on my dresser you might find a
red substance which was sold to me
by a young woman who told me that
1t would take ten years from my age,
that 1t would improve the quality of
my complexion, and so on and so on.
1 think she w told me 1t would
rest tired feet and cure toothache.
But that little box has been there a
long time and the amount of red
stuff has not ~perceptibly diminished.
I cannot use 1t when I look at those
who do.
The trouble with the average
woman who makes up her face is
that she does It in the becoming light.
She sits at her becomingly arranged
dressing table and there are soft rose
curtains at the windows, and the
whole effect is subdued and softened
and mellowed and kind. So she puts
on the cold cream, and the powder
and the rouge and the pencilings at
the corners of her eyes and on her
eyebrows. and in that same friendly
subdued light it looks rather well. 1t
seems to give her a look of youth and
rejuvenation.
But then-oh, then-she goes out
into the street and the merciless
white light of the sun falls on her
makeup and even to the most casual
~passer-by every line and wrinkle is
accumulated and her whole expression
is given a hardness and an arti-
f1ciality that Is, to say the least, IN
pleasant.
Or perhaps she sits at luncheon at
some smart hotel with a big window
directly before her, changing her from
a charming lady into a fool who is
vainly seeking to appear young. Oh,
haven't you seen any number of real
ly lovely women transform them
selves into travesties of beauty and
mockery Of their real selves by a
too great friendship for the ~betraying
little rouge pot.
1t is never possible to conceal make
up. There is a certain look about it
that eve the novice in beauty culture
can detect ut a glance. And I do not
know anyone who really admires its
effect. Why. why, then, will women
put it on? A great riddle. isn't it?
There's nothing immoral about it.
It's just ugly and unbecoming and not
very clean and a great waste of time.
Fresh air, soft water. pure soap. a
good disposition and a healthy opti-
mism will give any woman an at
tractive face. And the first three
without the last two. will go pretty
far toward it.

BLACK AND WHITE
STILL POPULAR

In spite of the rage for color which
threatened our peace of eye SO seri-
ously in the early days Of March, we
remain very faithful to the time-hon-
ored combination of black and white.
Among the most successful of white
lace dresses destined to adorn Ascot
Is made in tunic style with broad
hens of black ninon, a short, round
ed, black ninon coat hanging in sack
style over this ruched with black
ribbon with a white picot edge and
the whole rs to be crowned with a
black hat lined beneath with white
chip with a forest of black and white
ostrich feathers waving their fronds
over the crown. A parasol of white
ACE hemmed with black chiffon will
complete the effect.

More Stains

A(1& 49,
Kindly tell me how 1 can remove a
stain from a grass-green messaline dress
which Is all spotted from the -, and
also tell me how to remove q perfume
stain from same, which has taken all the
shine out of material. Thanking you,
yours truly, A STAR READER.
You don't give the variety of the
first stain, so 1t 10 therefore rather
difficult for me to prescribe for 1t.
Do you mean that the dress was
spotted by the rain? If SO you may
be able to remove the stains by
sponging with alcohol, but in most
cases it is impossible to remove them
at all.
The perfume has most likely taken
the color out of the material. You
may be able to remove the ring by
rubbing with ~chloroform, beginning
1T the rim and rubbing toward the
centre. If the color is out there Is a
slight possibility that it can be re-
stored by touching 1t with a little
weak ammonia water. However. I
think you will find your gown will
still be in a sad state unless you take
it to the cleaners and have Vt treated
professionally.

A GRACEFUL EVENING WRAP
BY MAY MANTON

.
The evening wrap that is so simple
of construction that 1t can be made
at home is n greatly to be desired.
This one can be easily and quickly
made since there Is no troublesome
fitting and there are very few seams.
If the material is wide. there aresonly
those that form the sleeves and those
that hold the outside material and
the lining together. In the illustra-
ton the wrap is made of black satin
and lined with white and the long tie
ends are finished with tasseIs of
black. If an unlined wrap is pre-
ferred, the evers only may be faced
with a contrasting color and the
edges finished in any n liked.
would be very handsome. If light
colors are preferred, they may be
used in material of either weight and
may be trimmed with the same or a
contrasting color. Pale blue or pink
charmeuse lined with white would
make an exceedingly dainty wrap, or
one of the loosely woven wool ma
terials with a lining of contrasting
color showing through would be
most attractive. Champagne color
with a lining of two-toned taffeta
in shades of blue and champagne
would be lovely. or if a darker color
is preferred. royal or kings blue with
the lining in shades of blue and green
would be very pretty. White or cream
is always satisfactory and always
harmonizes with other things. Ivory
~broadcloth with lining of soft silk
would be extremely beautiful.
The wrap will require 5a yards of
material 81. 4 yards SO or az yards
81 inches wide, with IS yard for lin
ing the revers, or the same Quantity
of material for lining if it extends
throughout.
The May Manton pattern 7497 is cut
in one size. 1t will be mailed to any
address by the fashion department
of this paper on receipt of ten cents.

NO GRIP NOW?

BY q Physician.
For three years the Chicago health
department has been looking for the
influenza bacillus. examinging about
100, 900 samples of sputum a year, and
not one has been found to contain the
grip bacillus. The conclusion is
that there really hasn't been any
grip in Chicago for twenty years-not
since the great epidemic Of 1872.
The fact is la grippe is a true cpl
demic, and when it comes 1t spreads.
What people call grip these days
is a cold, caused by one or the other
of several different bacteria.

BY JUDGES
[nNrrrp rnrsn 1nAsrp wrnn.l

New York, Sept. 5.-Crimlnal re-
sponsibllity for the manufacturers of
poisonous and adulterated foods was
urged from the bench here today by
United States District Judge Noyes,
sitting in the case of Mrs Sophia Kit
terer against the Armour Packing
company.
"1f there is no such law on the
statute books said Judge Noyes,
zone should be enacted forthwith
Mrs. Kitterer alleged she was poi
soned by eating a pork product Of the
Armour company, and brought suit
for damages. Attorneys for Armour
& Co. pleaded that, as the manfactur-
ers dealt with mlddlemen, they should
not be held responsible for what hap
pened to the consumer This attempt
to shift responsibility angered Judge
Noyes, and his denunclatlon Of manu-
facturers who foisted poisoned meat
on the public was one Of the most
scathlng ever delivered in New
