Sugars Usefulness.

Now that colder weather is coming
the dietary of the warm months must
be changed to meet changing climatic
conditions And 1t is we'll to consider
the value of sugar in children's win
ter diet.
Sugar is readily assimilated by the
system. Therefore. sugar taken as
food quickly gives a reaction IN ne.
muscular work Graves sweets. And
any woman who has relieved the
fatigue Of shopping by nibbling candy
by eating ice cream or some other
equally frivolous sweet will realize
that sugar quickly SUPPLIES energy.
In the winter. when children live
much out of doors and need big sup
ply of bodily heat, sugar can be util-
ICED to supply 1t. This does not mean,
Of course, that child's diet should
contain a idrge amount of sugar. It
does not mean that candy should be
allowed whenever it is desired. 1t does
not mean that five or six spoonfuls of
sugar should be sprinkled on the
cereal.
The trouble with sugar in children's
diet is that 1t is usually eaten when
the child Is not hungry or else between
meals. At the end Of a hearty meal a
sweet dessert Is superfiuous. Between
meals eating of any sort, especially Of
highly concentrated food like sugar,
is injurious. Sugar piled thick on cereal
or fruit is harmful. not in itself, but
| because 1t often forms a ferment in
those combinations. Moreover, children

allowed to flavor all their food with

ened food-naturally a deplorable con-
| dition.

casional treat, always with or directly

NEW YORK. October 3o.-The last
cables from France tell US that black
frocks and garnet hats are preferred
by those who indulge in setting the
smart fashions, few though these wom-
en- be.
The cables advise the American
women to combine these two colors,
but the only obstacle is the fact that
the American woman does not seem
to care for black this season. She is
willing to wear it in the evening with
the addition of gorgeous rose or a
beaded band across the bodice. Black

CLOCKS THAT GO.

Most of US have clocks enough in our
houses. but often half our clocks do not
go. And really nothing is more useless
than a clock that doesn't go because it
is not properly cared for.
Sort your clocks and throw away
those that viii! not go. They are simply
cumbersome lot of waste If you have
an old clock with an interesting or
beautiful case you can have new works
put into 1t. But if the case is not
worth new works and the old works
won't go, throw the clock away.
Get into the habit of winding your
clocks regularly. Probably in the
houses where man comes once a week
to wind the clocks at certain time
they go with much more regularity
than in other houses. But anybody can
get into the habit of winding a clock at
regular time every week. So before
time, learn to wind them regularly.
Often clocks stop going just because
they need cleansing, and the Offices OF
clock repairer are not needed to
clean them, either. A bit of absorbent
cotton soaked in kerosene placed under
the clock will usually effect thorough
cleaning. The cloth or cotton after a
few days will be found black with dust
and dirt. which the kerosene has freed
and collected. i.
One of the clocks with luminous
hands Is a convenience, especially to an
invalid or anybody else who is awake
in the night a great deal. Another sort
of clock that is good in the dark is one
with little electric bulb attached.
which can be pushed on to show the
time.
The woman who travels about much
will find small travelling clock, In a
substantial case. well worth while, for
this sort of clock is especially made to
stand the jolts and jars of travelling
There are little leather cases for
watches, that make of the watches ad-
mirab1e travelling clocks, and simplify
the number of things the traveller must
carry.

Black Is Popular.
Black is very smart this season for
evening gowns. and it appears in tat
fetas, soft silks and nets. but especially
nets. The trimmings are iridescent or
of jet. Distinctive models show that the
idea Of the designer was mostly skirt and
very little waist. Yards and yards of
materials are used in the skirt to give
RULED. draped, hustle or tunic effects, or
any of the original and graceful lines
that are new. Practically all evening
gowns are sleeveless, and stunning
models may be had ranging in price from
$25 to SIPS.
Wraps for evening wear are Of panne

as turquoise blue, crimson, orange or

desig gins wrought in it in coiored worst
ed threads, such as Paquin likes.
The gown sketched today, however,
which is by Drecoll. has no brilliant
color placed against it. but depends
upon the brown fur for its unusual
note. 1t was not possible to leave
peltry off evening gowns, no matter
how fl.ny or simple they are. The
materials of this frock are net and
satin combined The round-and-
round effect of the skirt trimming
is in the highest fashion, as every one
tries it out but Cabot. who clings to
the long lines that have made her
frocks famous. The popularity of this
Drecoll frock is undoubted. but the
woman who has not the smallest OF
hips should not attempt it.
This word of warning is given here
because it is needed. Hundreds of
women are buying gowns like this,
with the round-and-rouad lines, and
they will soon hate them on account
of the way they shorten and thicken
the figure. The style looks so simple
and girlish that ii misleads the ma
jority. but in those two qualities lie
it's danger. If you are slim, take it,
If you are not, beware of it
frocks are to be worn under warm
topcoats on the street and unblush-
ingiy uncovered for afternoon house
affairs. A few of the smart women
are already wearing sleeves that are
only half way to the elbows, and often
there are short gloves of lace that
reach half way to the elbow in the
other direction. The sleeve that stops
at the elbow is not in style: the short
and the long ones have it all their
own way.

Subjects Taught

somewhat modified by war. The mobil-
zation drew more upon professors than
pupils last year. The years reopening
OF the schools shows heavier drafts have
been made upon the students of colleges
and universities. In the primary schools
and lyceums the attendance, though less
than the average, exceeds that Of last
year; the increase is made up largely OF
refugees that did not attend school last
year.
At the Louis-le-Grand lyceum. the old

against 800 last year and l.1OO average
More than 100 OF last years pupils at
this lyceum are In the army. Only 25
per cent OF the usual number of stu
dents are registered at the Fine Arts
school and other sections of the univer-
sity have suffered equally; the medical
school even more. most OF the professors
being In the sanitary service.
In tho art schools the tendency TO
modernism has not been shaken. but It
has been cleared of freaks and extrava-
