TUNlCS AND CRADLES.

Tunics of net and lace which fall in points are edged with some colored silk and the deep ceinture is often aided by second colored sash tied about the knees. In one gown of white net a deep girdle of Roman striped ribbon tied in the back in a gigantic Japanese bow ruthlessly destroys all our tradi- tions, and in another a bolero of taffeta says quite plainly, "the lingerie gown of 1914 has got to be walked up."
 Very often the embroidery of net or batiste or organdie is in color. as, for instance. on an 1880 frock whose ruff fled skirt and nchu are brought out by blue needlework.

Importance of Cotton Grape

THE woman who takes full advan-
 tage of crape for summer clothes diminishes the work of the laundress
 on ironing day almost by half. And
 this summer. when crape of all sorts is in full fashion, the housewife's task
 of making use of it is easy. Ironing destroys the characteristic
 charm of crape. really beautiful
 crape frock was sent by its owner last
 summer to a laundress who was un-
 used to the fabric. She ironed it. 1t
 came home ruined-far too large.
 smooth and characterless. And. of course, the little crinkled wrinkles that the iron had smoothed could never be
 regained.
 It is better to use heavy lace in crape frocks and underwear-lace that holds it's shape and requires little ironing.
 When fine lace like valenciennes. Is
 used it must be carefully ironed and
 pulled into shape without ironing the crape.
 Grape nightwear can be very attrac-
 lively made. Nightgowns cut by some
 simple pattern. with kimono sleeves.
 can be finished with a half inch hem at the top. through which quarter inch
 ribbon can be run. There can be
 DlC or coarse WnlIo oIlDTOlucFy OH tlo front and sleeves, and the sleeves can
 be finished with plain hems. In spite
 of their simplicity such nightgowns are
 dainty if they are nicely made.
 A new summer night garment that can be made of crape is an interesting
 sort of pajamas for women and chill
 dren-a garment all in one piece. so
 that the bothersome coat feature is
 eliminated. These pajamas have col lars and cuffs of colored lawn-pale
 pink or blue--or of white lawn. and these collars and cuffs must. of course,
 be ironed to look we'll. For children
 these pajamas are made with full bloomers drawn into an elastic band about the ankles.
 Grape clothes of any sort should be hung carefully. so that they will re- tain their shape. A good way to hang crape waists is on hangers. covered with strips of white cotton wound about them.
 Petticoats can be made with crape foundations, with fiounces of embroid- cry and lawn or of all over embroidery. The 1ounces can be ironed after the
 crape is dry. If the crape is dampen- ed when the flounces are sprinkled it can dry later.
 Children's summer clothes can be al- most entirely of crape. Small boys suits can be trimmed with cuffs and collars of pique-which must be ironed |-or of colored lawn. Belts and collars and cuffs of colored lawn can be used on little girls crape frocks.

The Sleeping Porch Fad

TT is quito true that the American
 people have been and are at times subject to the craziest fads ever heard of. but among the many useless fads adopted in our country there occur occasionally one or two which prove of general benefit to mankind. One which has become very popular in the past i've years and is of especial value is tho sleeping porch.
 Until recently no ono ever heard of sleeping in the open except in the case of consumptives or campers Then a short while ago some one had a flash of genius and asked if sleeping in the open were good for consumptives why was 1t not good for persons in normal health.
 Gradually as tho craze was accept ed and slowly spread men and women all over the country began to utilize the tops of their verandas and all odd little porches for sleeping purposes.
 After awhile the wealthier followers of the fad started to build sleeping porches to their homes. These were constructed more or less like ordinary rooms. with heavy roofs and walls. but the upper half of these walls was left open. The fittings in some of these outdoor rooms are as beautiful as those in any of the indoor rooms.
 The benefit of this fad is so patent that 1t seems almost unnecessary to explain wherein 1t lies. To breathe the free, unadulterated air all night long Is the most strengthening way to sleep. and 1t is safe to assert that no child brought up in a sleeping porch will ever have a tendency to weak lungs. Young children who arc unaccustom- cd to sleeping in the open should be started on their sleeping porch careers in the hottest weather and gradually worked up to the winter weather. In this way they become accustomed to the gradually increasing cold, and. far sleep in the open. it is highly healthful. but only under the above mentioned conditions To put a young baby out on sleeping porch for a cold night without any previous experience is quite enough to kill it.
 Every suburbanite and country mother should form the sleeping porch habit for herself and her children dur- ing the summer months. No matter how small a cottage the home may be, it is sure to have some kind of porch which can be utilized for this purpose. For the city dweller. unhappily. the sleeping porch is an unachievable goal unless one happens to have the means to own a house. A great many
 of the brownstone houses have porches ] in the rear. usually on the third or fourth story. These can be utilized in
New Britain herald., 1914-08-10

the manner described by the owner of the house if 1t be a private home or by the occupant of the room if the house is let off in sections to outsiders.
 The uncovered porch is rather dis turbing place on account of possible rain, which may drench bedclothes and cot, but if our readers care to chance it they can easily protect their bedding from the wet by spreading large sheets of oilcloth over their cots. Then if they are awakened by rain pattering on their faces two minutes time will find them safe indoors with their cots perfectly dry.

MAKE THE PUNISHMENT FIT
 THE CRIME"

WHATEVER reproach or privation we impose upon a child must be clearly connected with the offense. ThS child should always know just exactly why he is being punished. Moreover, the punishment should not be 90 Ions deferred that the child can lose the connection between his offense and the punishment.
 Nothing that affects a child's health. such as interference with meals or with sleep. should be used as a punishment Nor should useful work or study bs discredited by being used as a meant of punishment.
 We must remember that punishment is like medicine. There is no one pun- ishment that fits all cases or all chil- dren. Each case must be studied by itself, and the punishment must Dc made to at the offense and also the of- fender.

There is no rubber in the bottoms of the trousers to tease the little mans fat legs.
 The jaunty little maiden next to him also is clothed according to the Kate Greenaway idea. The high waist line and puffed sleeves of hand embroidered voile is particularly charming for party gown. The short waist is held in place by cording of taffeta: the
