A LITTLE KID.

Give me a romping little kid
With eyes of azure blue.
10 worry me and pull my hair
And sing the whole day through:
one who will tumble in the snow
and, when he's there from yanked,
VIII take it like a warrior
III he's soundly spanked.
Give me a care-free little kid
Who smiles when / am sad,
Who nestles close and cheers me up
And gently whispers. Dad:
And let him be Just trimming DER
With teardrops when | wait
For him TO patter down the street,
And meet me at the gate.
Give me the weeping little lad
Whom | may coax to smile,
Whose locks are brown and curly, and
Whose baby troubles I'll
Be glad to share from morn to night;
Whose heart Will beat for me.
And who will climb upon my back
Or romp upon my knee.
The world has need of little kids Z
And care-free little hearts,
For when their footsteps die away
The thrill of living parts;
Give all of us a youngster bold,
No matter whose he is. y
And | will wager that our hearts
Win beat in tune with his.

WHAT DO YOU DRESS FOR.

Grace Margaret Could fashion edi-
tor of the Woman's Home Companion,
writes an interesting article on Mo-
tive in Dress" in the March issue of
that periodical. Following is an ex-
tract
Dress YOU know, is picture even
though it be but a daub, and since it
is a picture it must have a motive.
What, then, is yours?
Is it vanity?
Is it economy?
Is it utility? Y.
Is it selfishness?
Is it beauty?
DO YOU dress for women, for men,
for yourself, or for the world?
You see, there are all sorts of
dress motives. 1t is a big field-isnt
it?-so big that | think each one of
you can find Your own motive hidden
i'll it somewhere. Now here is "A
question to think over: When you do
find this motive, how is it going to
make you feel? ashamed, silly, OF
proud?
Il have often thought, suppose
every woman all of a sudden, could
IN glance read the dress motive of
every other woman: would women
hide their faces or hold up their heads?
AS for dressing to please men in
general, it is all very we'll to please
them, and it is just what the normal
woman likes to do and most fire.
quently does but remember it is the
woman who attracts them-it is her
personality. Clothes are not impor-
tant considered merely as clothes:
they must interpret the character.
they must depend for their winning
qualities on the real woman who
wears them. 1t is to her smile, her
manner, her self, that men pay hom-
age, not to her clothes.
The one great lesson for us all to
learn is that dress will either reveal
or betray. There is a vast difference
between the costume in the closet and
when it is worn. That difference is
the spirit of the wearer"
