 1.-what is necessary for the baby's layette?
 Four abdominal bands, soft flannel nrhemmed, six to eight inches wide, twenty inches long.
 Four shirts, silk-andwool or cot ton-and-wool Size 2.
 Four flannel skirts, hung from shoulder not with bands to pin round the abdomen. Four nightgowns or wrappers of outing flannel, open in front.
 Three knitted bands, woodland cotton, with shoulder straps.
 Six very simple white slips
 Four dozen diapers cheesecloth, hirds-eye or stork diapering. which looks like old soft Turkish toweling.
 Three pairs of socks for summer baby
 Three pairs long stockings for win ter baby.
 One simple coat and cap.
 One pair of mittens for winter.
 Two short, loose sacques for sud- den changes in temperature.
 Two crocheted or knitted or flannel blankets.
 2.-what length should the baby s s' slips. be?
 Twenty seven inches when finished. Skirts in proportion. The skirt but toned or fastened on the shoulder, is known as the Gertrude skirt. The neck of the slip should be fastened with tapes, not buttons.
 3.-what is the best fabric for slips and cotton skirts?
 Soft long cloth, lawn, nainsook, bariste, which should be washed be- fore being made up, to protect the babys tender skin from any chem1- calls which may be used in bleaching or mercerizing the fabric
 4.-How can keep my baby's socks pn? He has been so active from birth. You can substitute long stockings ' for socks, and pin them to the diapers, or better still you can make petti- coats, nightgowns and the little coat in two pieces, back and front with the back longer than the front, and finished with square flap. like an envelope. This is turned up1and ever fhe front of the garment and fastened with buttons, tapes or safety pins. Then baby can kick without socks, protected from chill
 5.-HoX long does baby wear the abdominal band? ess
 Generally until two months old. Then replace it with the knitted band with shoulder straps. ta : 6.-How soon can I use the rubber diaper over birdseye? .

ALL STAR OFFERING
 ON KEENEY'S BILL

Today is the last chance local lovers see the all star offering at Keeney's theater. All the acts are rated as keadliners, and it is very seldom that the productions appearing on the program this week are induced to play without being the headliners.
 The workings of the underworld are exposed by one act drama entitled The Confession. This play treats in scientific way the methods used to cover up a crime by clever society crook Miss Dena Cooper of Sidney, Australia, is the leading lady of the act, and by her clever interpretations of the emotional parts brings the act up to one of the best productions now playing in New England. MT. Sheldrick also helps to make the play what it is by playing the part of the crook to perfection. .t
 Another source of regret will be the leaving of Margaret Burke after to- nights performance. Miss Burke has made a good many friends during her short stay in this city, and they will be truly sorry to have her leave. The rag time song review featured by Miss Burke in her act is the talk of the town.
 In a repertoire of jumps, hops, and bounces Granto and Maud will appear. This style of acting is all the rage in l. Europe at the present time and it was not without difficulty that this com pany of entertainers were induced to come to America Besides introduc- ir 8 little novelties, tight rope walking is the main factor of the entertain ment. The feats performed on the wire are indescribable, except to say the balancing is wonderful.
 Bush and Engle can also claim their share for making the bill one of tn best ever. The bar stunts are just as wonderful as the tight rope walking of Granto and Maud, and there is much discussion by the man on the street as to which set of acrobats de- serve the most credit.
 The MaXinoff Troupe concludes the show, and another act to balance up the bill any better could not be se- cured for love nor money. This troupe does a little of everything, such as sing, dance, and play musical instru- ments. This act of so many varied pleasures has a pleasing effect on the attendance, and their success is as- sured whenever they appear in New Britain, owing to their fine work for the last week

cleanliness will soon be established. Rubber diapers merely protect the bed, crib or couch They do not pro- tect the child nor teach him clean habits. 7-Should the abdominal band be laid aside in summer?
 For the normally healthy child. yes, at two months, always substituting the knitted band with shoulder straps. The baby suffers with heat in summer, precisely as an adult does. During the warm part of the day, if protected from draught, the baby needs nothing but this knitted band, diaper and a single slip. For morning and evening an outing flannel wrapper may be worn over the slip. There is more danger from overdressing than un- derdressing the baby in summer. It should have it's tub bath in the morn ing and a sponge bath before bedtime, with plenty of fresh clothing.
 Slow tight should the bellyband be fastened?
 Just tight enough to support the ab-. dcmen and protect the navel It must never be tight enough to cause ridges ir the flesh. It may be sewed on with loose stitches or pinned with reliable safety pins. Never take chance on cheap safety pins in dressing your baby. A pin prick may lead to in lection.
 9.-When shall I shorten my babys clothes?
 At six months. This second set of clothes may be a little more elabor ate than the first layette, with cam brio, long cloth or nainsook petticoats, but avoid lace and embroidery edging cn neck and sleeves. Cases of eczema have been traced to the use of trim ming which chafed the skin and in- vited infection. Make all garments, slips, skirts and bands, to hang from the shoulder.
 1O.-Does baby need a veil when outdoors?
 veils are little used and are not considered hygienic. If the baby's eyes are properly protected from the direct rays of the sun, and if the top of the carriage is so adjusted as to protect him from direct draught, E the veil is unnecessary and source Of discomfort to thenbaby. sas
 11.-How should a young baby be dressed at night?
 In a diaper, bellyband and night gown. In cold weather, have ample covering and protect the bed from draught. In summer. do not have heavy coverings. but remember that toward morning an extra cover may be needed. Bear in mind that a baby |, feels sudden changes in weather as oda da11% md st 1o cd In winter, the nightgown which turns up at the bottom, like an envelope flap, protects the feet from chill.

Household Notes

Old velveteen should be saved for polishing cloths.
 Beef immersed in sour milk will keep for months.
 Silver should never be allowed to stand overnight without washing.
 A cloth dipped in ammonia will often remove stains from clothing.
 French-fried potatoes dipped in cornmeal before frying are excellent.

 During an entertainment given by grand, meets Jean, who is studying law in Paris. Sapho, called on Jean from time to time at his students quarters, and nursed him through a long illness. One day a sculptor, a friend of Jean's, lifted a corner of the veil that hid Sapho's past; this made Jean jealous and Sapho ap- peased him by the surrender of her old letters. After some high words with Sapho, and on the invitation of his uncle, Jean takes a trip to his native home, but as soon as he returns to Paris, Sapho exercises the old influence over him. At the press ing request of Sapho, Jean adopts child in total ignorance that the child is the son of a condemned forger, a former lover of Saphos. While away to his home Jean learns that his mistress has received a visit from her former lover, is maddened with jealousy and insists that Sapho go with him to America, but she de- clines and it finally seen with her old lover and the child.

These patterns are transferred by the hot iron process, which IS the simplest method that has yet been devised for effecting a perfect transfer. All that is necessary is to lay the pattern on the material and press over the entire surface with a hot iron when a perfect transfer will result.
 The scalloped edges are to be padded and buttonholed. The flowers and leaves can be worked either solidly or as eyelets. The stems are to be outlined.
 To pad the scallops, work chain stitch between the lines, heavier at the center and lighter at the points; or cut a skein of thread and apply two or more strands over the center of the stamped pattern, keeping within the lines, tack here and there in couching style, gathering the threads closely at each point of the seal ops; then buttonhole closely over the foundation. Make solid embroidery by hrst darning backward and forward over the stamped figure and then cover closely with over and over stitches, working in the opposite direction from the padding. To outline, take short stitches, keep the needle toward the right and work upward. To make the flowers and leaves as eyelets, hrst run a thread round the stamped figure, then cut a slight slit lengthwise, hnd then crosswise of the long openings, ind work closely over and over.
 Use embroidery cotton in weight adapted to the material.
