Water
Inside and
) Out

If you want your children to avoid
many diseases and have them grow
up strong and healthy teach them to
like water. They may have this de-
sire naturally, but it is more than like
ly they will want to drink with meals,
which is considered by some to be the
wrong time for drinking.
The drinking Of water is largely q
matter of habit with the human fam
lily. 1t should be a matter of instinct.
Little mammals Of the animal king
dom follow this instinct, which Is
strong in the young of all animals.
But babies must depend for the graft
fication Of this instinct upon the wis
dom of mothers. Often when babies
cry and you think they want nourish-
ment they are only thirsty.
Sometimes this instinct will assert
itself when your child is old enough
to make his needs known, but often
that instinct has been stifed and the
need of water is never felt unless In
the heat of summer the child is at
tracted to it because of its GOODNESS.
In this way he is deprived Of one
of the most valuable aids to health
and beauty. The free use of water
washes the kidneys and the intestines
of many of their impurities and thus
cleanSeS the skin and aids it in its
work The practice of drinking plenty
of water makes the skin cleaner and
often more rosy. This shows the re-
suit of water as q cleanser of the sys-
tenn.
The water should be boiled, bottled
and kept cool in a refrigerator. The
boiling eliminates the carbonic gas
and the carbonates of lime, but it also
eliminates very desirable element
free oxygen.
To overcome this partly, pour
cupful of water back and forth into
another cup a few times. The water
will then retain some Of the oxygen
Of the air and will be more wholesome.
After your child reaches an age
where he eats solid food you can let
him have filtered water. 1t Is better
than water kept standing in vessels
and bottles. where the organisms tend
to increase.
If your child is inclined to swallow
his food rapidly do not let him first
bolt it down and then wash it down
with water. This will result in the
weakening of the juices needed in dis
solving the food and will finally result
in digestion. The use of water at
meals also results in the bloating Of
tn stomach.

Cherish Your illusions.

1t has often been said that woman
is as old as she feels. Another world
lywise saying informs us that you can
always tell woman's age by the num-
Der of illusions she has. Both contain
a great deal of truth, and both are
closely related. The woman who re-
tains her Illusions until she passes the
half century mark is much younger at
heart than the sophisticated, blase wo-
man of thirt!;.
Ideals. illusions. enthusiasm, all are
a part of youth and belong to that
rose colOred period of life. So long as
we retain them we keep our youth.
but the minute they leave us, whether
we are thirty or fifty. we are no longer
young. Age comes with the loss of
our ideals. If We only realized how
quickly we age when we become blase
and bored we would cling to our en-
thusiasms as We would to youth itself.

Child Hyqiene For January.

Anxious mothers often err in one of
two ways in looking after the physical
wants of young children. They either
line the medicine chest with gargles,
castor oil, cathartics and dope for
colds or they neglect the child's needs
entirely. Physicians are recommend
ing mothers to get further away from
using the old time honored medicine
chest. They should take the sugges-
tion offered by the Chinese physicians,
who make il their business to keep
their PATIENTS well.
II you are a rational mother you will
give your child a wholesome and lib
eral diet. This means plenty Of milk
and fresh eggs and a good portion Of
fresh vegetables and fruit. Meat once
a day for young children, but they
need it that often to make blood and
strength. One of the simplest ways
of keeping children well Is to give
them plenty Of fruit and water.

--latest News.O

The game of --latest news" is very
interesting and will create roars of
laughter.
Each player chooses a trade or pro-
fession. Then one is supplied with a
newspaper. from which she is request
ed to read aloud some item Of news.
Whenever she pauses and looks at one
of the players that player must at once
supply q remark in keeping with her
trade The effect will be something
like this:
The annual sale of''-here the read
er looks at the pork butcher, who an
swers, ''Sausages"- held in the

pher. to whom the reader looks.

readers eye And so the game goes on.

SOME BEAUTY DON'TS.
A Few Simple Habits That Help
Stave Off Seediness.

Don't wear thin shoes and gossamer
stockings in cold weather or you will
have that pinched. chilled look that is
so unbecoming. Don't economic in
shoe leather. 1t is economy which will
probably cost you dear.
Don't give up taking exercise even
if the weather is bad. A brisk walk on
a cold day is a complexion beautifier.
Don't fail to dry your hands thor
oughly after washing if you wish to
prevent them from getting chapped.
Don't forget to wear a veil If your
skin is susceptible to cold winds.
Don't wear heavy headgear. 1t is very
bad for the hair. Don't let your rooms
get hot and stuffy. Always leave the
window slightly open at the top.
An excellent lotion for preserving the
color of fair hair is made from camO-
mile flowers An ounce of these should
be placed in a bowl and about a pint
Of boiling water poured over them.
Cover the bowl and allow to stand for
a couple of hours. then strain carefully
and use occasionally, dabbing it into
the roots Of the hair.
The more fair hair is brushed the
better it looks. Brushing gives gloss
which eventually becomes permanent
and so is far better than what bril-
nantine could impart; also it frees the
scalp from dust and makes the hair
grow. The brushes must be kept scru-
pluously clean; should be washed every
morning and left to dry.

scene also, from landscapes to views
Of interiors. Most striking, naturally,
are gardens with all sorts Of floral
blooms. BY the process no shade or
tint escapes the camera, while atmos-
phere i'll out of doors scenes Is pre-

or to the mood of a day.
1t is impossible to suggest the beauty
Of effects obtained by photographing
children with this color process, surely
the most important event in the his
tory of photography since the advent
Of the daguerreOtype- rare, lovely
effect Of golden curls, blue eyes and
bright coloring, the whole general alive

The lower cut depicts Miss Clarke
standing in her garden. The color
photograph wildly brings out the orr
entail tones of her mandarin's coat,
sea blues, burnt orange and gold, while
the glow of the foliage behind her has
all the luminousness Of sunlight on
greenery in contrast with the molly
hooks in the foreground.

Such varied and unique display of
dolls and toys probably has never be-
fore been seen in this country as that
on exhibition in New York city. 1t is
held under the auspices Of the Lafa-
yette fund, and the proceeds are to be
sent to France for the benefit of the
war sufferers. Many French artists
have contributed their best skill to the
exhibition and have produced some
charming pictures. Besides the thou
sands of individual dolls, there are his
toric scenes and representations Of
French everyday life all worked out
with dolls in correct costumes and set
tings. One scene, a portion Of which
is here illustrated, is an exact repro
duction of a French market in minia-
ture. In the picture is shown a fruit
and vegetable seller. On the stand in
front Of her are displayed her wares,
eoch perfect to the last detail. At the
front of the table resting on the ground
is a bag of tiny potatoes, each one
sawed from wood by painstaking
hands, a replica, except in size, Of the
homely tuber.

For January Sales.

Friction always takes time. An OBJ
ject rolling down a smooth hill goes
much faster than when it bumps along
over stones and cobbles. A courteous
remark will carry you quicker to the
bargain than querulous chickering's over
prices which the saleswoman cannot
control. When you allow the sales
woman to bring out dozens Of forty
and fifty dollar suits when you know
you will not pay a cent over sos you
are wasting your own time and hers.
When you chat with an acquaintance
ut the glove counter and ignore the
girls do you wish eight or twelve
button?" you are wasting time again
and depriying the girl of another Gus
toner.

How to Clothe Her For Her Return
to School After Holidays.
No matter what other economies the
average mother may feel called upon
to practice, there is one department In
which she will find it the truest econ
omy to purchase with the greatest
care, choosing only materials Of the
best quality procurable, since they can
not fail to prove the wisest investment
In the end. Where children are con-
cerned, so called cheap garments are
in reality the most extrayagant, since
they can never Withstand the rough
handling which needs must fall to
their share, and even though the young
people should quickly outgrow their
skirts nothing is easier than to ar
range two or three tucks which can
be let down as occasion requires, al
ways suppOsing that there are no still
younger folks to whom the frocks in
question can descend without altera-
ton.
For home wear pinafOre dresses in
fine navy serve have many advantages,
for they can be worn with different
kinds of blouses, according to the state
of the temperature and the occasion
for which the frockS may be required.
Cotton blouSes might be worn by
schoolgirls of all ages in the morning.
when weather permits, with navy serge
dresses of this description, while in
the afternoon something little smart
er might be permitted, carried out in
a delightful new material which has
the appearance of a soft, bright silk,
although it is as durable as the strong
est cotton fabric and can be washed
any number of times without losing
its Silken sheen.
Simple tailor made coats and skirts
in serge cannot be improved upon
where outdoor costumes for school
girls are concerned. and here again
blouses of various descriptions can be
worn.

"Fire on the Mountain"

In this game there are two rings of
players. one outside the other. The
players forming the inner ring Sit
down. and those in the outer ring
stand close behind them, though there
should be a good wide space between
the two rings. A single player stands
in the center and presently calls out:
Fire on the mountain. Run, run,
rum Those on the outside then gal
lop round as fast as they can, the rest
sitting still, and the running is con-
tinued till the one in the center cries
stop"
Then everybody, including the single
player. tries to find a place behlnd
one of the inner ring, and the boy or
girl who is left out must take his or
her turn in the center.

For thu Babies.

For a good all round rug in a room
where children run about an army
blanket is just the thing. 1t clings to-
the floor, and dust cannot go through
it. 1t sweeps easily and washes with
out any shrinking or wrinkling.
If you pin fresh ribbon strings to
the baby's dainty embroidered silk
caps with little gold pins the life of
the cap will be greatly heightened if
tiny pieces of white silk are sewed
with small stitches to the inside Of the
cap, where the ribbon strings are
pinned.
To keep the front of a baby's frock
dry during the teething period haste
or pin with tiny safety pins half a
dress shield to the underside of bib.
The unfinished edge of the shield
should be bound with tape.
The mattress on a child's crib may
be kept from getting rust marked by
the wire springs by placing four win
dow shade sticks an even distance
apart on top Of the springs.
When feeding a small child bread
spread with butter or jam cut the
bread into thin slices and fold over
into sandwiches. There will then be
no butter side to fall on the carpet,
nor will they get the butter or jam
on their fingers or dresses.
To keep a little girls hair ribbons
from missing roll them each night on
q piece Of cardboard. This win save
frequent pressing. The cardboard may
be covered with silk.
