FOR THE CHILD.

IT HE trend of modern life is against
demanding anything OF young
children at all--even obedience
very often, and more's the pity. But
1t is a question whether something in
character training IL not lost by the saw
ing of all trouble and care to children,
and whether the helping in various
small ways, which was recognized

small people), in past decades. did not
play a good part in the general scheme
Of things
or course the idea of putting respon-
sibilty on young children. OF expecting
perpetual service from them and "driv-
ing" them in any way is odious. and
possibly our present slackness in this
way Is due merely TO the swing OF the
pendulum will hope, for the peace
and prosperity Of future generations
that this same law of the pendulum Will
not follow on in natural sequence, and

How to Cool Summer Beverages
The way to avoid excessive drinking In
hot weather In to see that all bever-
ages are thoroughly chilled and are
slowly slipped. A cold beverage is much
more satisfying than one that has ac-
quired the temperature OF the summer
weather, and there are several simple
methods OF bringing about this desira-
BILE GOODNESS.
Those who draw their water supply
from a well, either by dropping "A bucket
or working a pump handle, are inde ed
lucky. for well water Is invarlab bly, cold,
and the deeper the well the colder the
water. Clean bottles filled with bev-
erage can be placed in the bucket and
lowered in the well to such point that
they are almost under water. and If
they are allowed to stay there few
hours the beverage in the bottles will
be found as cold as the well water.
When the water liz pumped from the
well three or four buckets should be
pumped up, ana When AT last the water
| flows really cold the beverage in bot
ties should be stood for about an hour
in bucket Of the ice cold well water.
When the water supply IL drawn from
a faucet 1t is not so cool as when taken
from the lower depths of the earth, but
even then there il no need to despair OF
cool beverages. Several thlcknesses OF

teaspoonful Of reCtitied spirit. When
the jar Is fun II must stand uncovered

ON DRESS.

THERE are many women VINO
slav.shly follow the dictates Of
fashion, but even among them
individuality will creep out. Three
sisters may dress alike, as far as
the make and materials Of their
clothes are concerned. but there will
be ere long decided difference in
the aspect Of the three Very certainly
each nation OF Europe can be detected
by the manner in which the women put
on their garments and select them.
Parisians own that present fashions are
an expression of the feminist movement
OF to-day. A prevailing style seen on
most OF the mannequins Is draped
overskirt and very narrow underskirt,
indeed, short coatee. and sash about
the hips. Dark blue Is more in favor
than almost any other color, but 1t Is
relieved by trimmings OF colored stripes
or checks Tulle is the prevailing fabric
for dancing frocks ana nothing is more
appropriate or prettler for young people.
Sometimes II Is garlanded with an en-
broidery of naturally colored tiny roses
and leaves. A useful addition to the
wardrobe IL the new shaped jacket,
which Is far more like a sack, following
the lines OF the figure without combining
II in any way, and Is mostly made to
slip on with almos any dress, and not
part and parcel OF one. II requires to
be carefully worn. and, like most OF the
modes OF the day, is suited to slender
figures. Hip sashes get lower and lower
and are an important feature in the
modes Though We have not got back
to the long waist, ghese sashes are help
ing TO prevent us missing them. Some
times the hip sashes are replaced by
rows OF narrow ribbon or cord brought
down over the hips. the cord holdini
any fulness down.
