CLOTHES FOR CHILDREN
ARE VERY ATTRACTIVE

Childrens clothes are becoming almost
as important as the smallnesses them
selves.
No colors are too brilliant this year for
children's clothes. They are outdoing
their elders in the use of Oriental and
Bulgarian colors. Bands of bright en-
broidery are used on white dresses, hats
and bonnets have perky little punches OF
the new silk flowers that never grew on
land or sea-" and are all the more at
tractive for their not having done So
The old-fashioned mushroom shape Is
still holding its own for very little folks.
II is wise selection, for aside from the
fact that it is becoming, the shape pro-
tects the child's eyes from the glare OF
the sun.
Patent leather belts are seen on nearly
all the dresses for children more than
six years Of age.
For these changeable days, when the
winter coat is too heavy and the spring
coat sometimes too light, the shops are
selling little silk padded slips to be worn
inside the coat. They are very light, OUT
heavy enough to prevent the youngster
taking cold.

At noontine she returns home for
luncheon and before sitting down to that

No French woman. living in France, ever

mother always takes with the younger
children of the family because that meal
is their dinner, her maid assists her into
a more elaborate and strictly formal

man said nothing, only shaking his head

This man was Magellan, the first man

Ferdinand Magellan had an exciting
life. He was born in Portugal about 1850
He was only twenty-four when he made
his first voyage to India, where he was
wounded in battle. A few years later he
fought bravely against the Malays al
Malacca, and received as a reward fol
his many services the rank of captain. He
continued TO distinguish himself on many
subsequent voyages and campaigns.
But he was not content with the honors
he had won. Like Columbus and most OF
the adventures Of that time, Magellan
dreamed always Of a shorter route to the
East by sailing westward. His idea was

Union station Accident.

Failing down the stairway at the Union
Station and sustaining serious personal
injuries are given as the causes for a
suit for $4,000 damages filed yesterday
by Theodore G. Ellyson against the Phil

tunities for advancements therein and
the increase Of salary which would follow
from such advancements."

When the Partisan mother approaches
the haIf-century mile post OF her exist

elderly and dresses in accordance with
the dignity of her years. At that period
she begins to wear, almost exclusively
purple, lavender, dark gray. and black
costumes made in the prevailing modes,

while the girls Of her family wear the

a boa to lend dignity to her thin costume,
and il would be difficult to imagine her

How She Maintains Dignity.
Under no circumstances short of a dire
calamity, would the Parisienne mother
show herself outside of her own cham
Der in anything remotely akin to negli-
gee. She never wears a loose gown be-
fore her husband and her grown children
and were a man servant to rap at her
dressing room door while she was COW

him to wait for moment, and would
hastily slip into a frock before admitting
him to her presence. Thus does she
maintain the dignity of the household.
