eirIs Who Ape Their Elders.

The schoolgirl nowadays wears her
hair In the latest style; her skirts are
as tight as the law allows and as long
as her height permits. Her feet are
covered with the smartest French heel
ed slippers, and the sheerest silk gauze
stockings pretend to cover her ankles.
She affects the debutante SLOUGH and a
languid air, and no one could tell by
looking at her face that it had ever
known soap and water, for 1t Is often
so caked with rouge and powder that
the natural complexion is quite con-
cealed.
Where are the maternal eyes when
the girls clothes are ordered? 1t Is
decidedly time that girls became girls
again and not young ladies OF the
world at fourteen or fifteen Moth
ers should insist on their daughters re-
naming children in dress and custom

The Winter Walk.

Walking Is a desirable exercise at
all times, but In winter when the air
Is braclng 1t is especially helpful. The
hours walk each day, briskly done,
regularly followed. will be found to be
the greatest health giyer and best Of
laxatives. Who cannot find time to
walk each day at least few blocks
a real walk. not a hurried skip Of a
few minutes nor a languid, leisurely
stroll, ended as soon as the walker
feels a little bit fatigued? This tired
feeling Is the dag which signals that
more walking Is needed If the ex-
ercise Is persisted IN as each day goes
by the tired feeling will not be noticed.
One should walk into and over and
past the tired feeling until that sec
ond influx Of strength Is noted which
runners call their second wind" When
this Is done the walking Is doing some
good.

Does Food Influence Our Iooksf
You can, according to the opinion OF

Should she, on the other hand, be
too slender Of feature, with tiny chin,
you can develop rounded curves by CIV

Man is what he eats, says the ex-
pert, and he then mentions such diver

he says, are caused by the articles Of

PETTIcoATS FOR DANCING.

sIashes at the Side to Permit Freedom
Of Movement.
The dancing petticOat is usually
made with a slash in each side. This
Arrangement insures freedom, without
which It is impossible nowadays to
dance. The lower edges of the front
and back of the petticoat are usually
rounded, so that the petticoat is really
formed of two sections rounded into
deep oval at the bottom fastened to-
gether along their long edges and 1T
ted or gathered into the waist along
the narrow edges
Petticoats Of knitted silk are far
more durable than those made even OF
the softest and best satin For eventu-
ally the satin wears out, and it seems
as II the knitted silk fabric never
wears out. It Is usually used for the
upper part Of the petticoat and In more
expensive ones Is used also for the
plated rufie. These are more than
worth the extra price charged for
them
Petticoats made Of pique, buttonholed
in big scaIlops about the bottom, are
durable and serviceable. They are not
transparent, and that Is one Of the
things that commend them for pract-
cal wear

Points
for
Mothers
Bedtime Rompina.


Do not let the children romp too
much just at bedtime and give only a
light supper II they are to sleep well.
A little child is active all day, and as
bedtime approaches the brain and body
must be quieted.
One Of the greatest dangers to a child
Is nerve fatigue, which leads TO more
serious troubles in later life, and the
two best preventives OF nervousness in
children are nourishing food and pIen-
ty OF sleep. One Of the best authori.
ties says that for the first six months
a baby should sleep from sixteen to
eighteen hours day; from six months
to one year a child needs from four.
teen to fifteen hours sleep; at two
years, thirteen to fourteen hours; at
four years, eleven to twelve hours, and
from six to ten years, from ten to eIev-
en- hours.
Nine hours sleep is needed for chill
dren from ten to sixteen, and 1t re-
mains for parents to see that they get
1t at this most important period, when
school hours and lessons are long and
the physical body is changing from
childhood to young man and woman
hood.
This is the time when nervous dis
orders are most apt to show, and the
child who has been trained to get plen-
ty Of restful sleep at regular hours will
get through the best.
