A FEW FACTS ABOUT
 WIFE OBSERVERS
WHY do so many husbands run

WHY do so many husbands run
 away?
 A statistician connected with the bu- reau of public welfare has been trying to answer the question.
 After Investigating thousands of cases of assertions he finds that the husbands action can usually be ascrib- ed to one of the following causes:
 III health and peevishness of the wife.
 Slouchtness of the wife either in her own person or in her housekeeping methods or both. >s-o4 .++,--- -
 The wife's habit of nagaginig or gos- siping.
 Dislike for children on the wife's part.
 This statistfcian found that the strongest incentive to reconciliation in cases of family discord is almost in variably the child. He also found that very few wives are deserted who are
 Physically we'll and mentally cheer full.
 Able to contribute to the family in-- come either by outside labor or by frJ1- gality in home management @
 Affectionate and home loving
 Sympathetic and considerate Of their husbands.
 The very interesting and valuable statistics which he collected prove that native American husbands are more prone to desert their wives than are the foreign born.
 They also show that married life is the happiest when husband and wife are nearly alike in age. nationality, re- ligfon. moral standards. temperament health and physical strength.

pears, peaches and bananas may be baked in the oven, in a casserole, only little water being added and the cas- serole covered.
 Cereals, properly cooked. mixed with dates or figs, are excellent, accom- panied by rich milk or half milk and half cream An ideal breakfast for a child of six consists of either stewed fruit or a small glassful of orange juice, a well cooked cereal, slices of whole wheat or Boston brown bread, or toast. and glass of milk.
 Among cakes. gingerbread. ginger cookies, raisin cookies and patty cakes can be eaten.
 Chicken, roasted or broiled, is also suitable for children, together with rice. The rice should be well boiled in salted water or in half milk and half water in a double boiler, or it may be made into a creamy rice pudding, the proportions being a tablespoonful of well washed rice to a quart of milk and two tablespoonfuls of sugar. Bake slowly for two hours.

-.--~~-~- THE SEPARATE SKIRT >>

ENTER the separate skirt, not as an
 occasional garment to be donned for sports wear or rainy day-as has been the province of separate skirts for a decade-but as the very back bone of the wardrobe.
 For, be it firmly set forth that a skirt which boasts a better half in the way of coat-in other words, tai lored suit combination-may not call itself a separate skirt. A true skirt is not part of any complete costume, it is as the English say, ''on it's own,' D and stands quite by itself an item in the wardrobe. About fifteen or twenty years ago there was an era of separate skirts, and a very comfort able, convenient era it was, too, de- spite the scathing rebukes and the scorn cast at skirt and shirt waist combinations when the fashion was on the wane.
 There are two sorts of separate skirts these days also. In an era of separate skirts one positively must have both kinds. One is the practical, utilitarian skirt for runabout wear called a sports skirt, and the other is off blouses of lace and georgette crape to best advantage. For purpose of dis tinction from the merely sports skirt this more elaborate model is called the dress skirt.
 The sports skirt is a delightfully."- comfortable and convenient garment, but much of it's convenience depends on the formation of its belt. The first

Preserve Your Youth

A T least half the seekers after beauty A are women of forty and past. Most of them are desirous of preserving their good looks, which means in this sensible age that it is nc longer con sidered necessary for years to rob even the woman past her prime Of beauty The natural tendency is for the body to gain in weight when a woman ad- Hances ia years, and if you aim to re- tain the youthful figure Of your young CT days you must exercise-and exe-- else mora than you ever have exercised befora.
 Superfuous flesh is apt to collect about the waist hips and abdomen when yon reach forty or thereabout, and this always means @goodby'' to grace yout2 and beauty.
 The minute you notice that you are gaining in weight exercise both night and morning. no matter how tired you may be. series of exercises which will keep flesh from aecunu ating about the waist and abod1nen consists of the fol- lowing movements:
 Stand erect with the hands on the hips Bend the knees and bring the body to a sitting posture, as low as possible. Rise again and repeat the entire movement at least fifteen or twenty. times.
 The second movement is:
 
 fat against your sides and bend far over to right, allowing the right hand to drop below the knee. Now reverse the movement and bend over to the left. Bend to each side alternately at feast half a dozen times.
 A third exercise. which is excellent for the muscles of the back as well as to reduce flesh, begins with the body held erect, with arms outstretched in front and hands together. Then swing the torso down to the left side, keep Ing the knees stiff and bending the body from the waist Resume the erect position and. bend the body down to the right Repeat the movement, bend ing to each side alternately until you feel fatigued.
 If your hips are too pronounced use this exercise:
 Stand erect with both hands on the hips. Raise the right leg, bringing the knees up as high as possible. Repeat this movement ten times and then ex- ercise the left leg an equal number of times.
 Follo@ this exercise with this move nent:
 From an erect position swing the right leg as far back as possible with out bending the knee Then swing it forward in the same manner. Repeat this movement twenty times with each leg.
 If you exercise faithfully every day there will be no need to fear the ad- vance of time will steal away your youthful physical charms Keep young by exercising rather than grow old <---z,>kazI1zz-

Notes From Paris

A CLOSE fitting waist, long sleeves,
 a high collar open in front and a straight hung, well gored, moderately full and moderately short skirt are the characteristics of the best type of tai lored dresses for the springtine. The coat, leather bound and button trim med, is short and. full hipped But countless changes are rung on this model. The same coat may top a pIait- ed skirt that is finished by muslin chemisette under a skeleton waist, or the waist may be of silk with big lego mutton sleeves. But in this costume all is moderation. Among the acces- sories the most insistent is the cape in some form or other.
 In every material that enters into the composition of dress the materials best liked include tricots, silk and wool alpacas and shantungs in all coIors. Coarse dishcloth linen, red squared on

FRIED SCALLOPs.

CLEAN one quart of scaIlops, turn
 into a saucepan and cook until they begin to shrivel. Drain and dry between towels. Season with salt and pepper, roll in fine crumbs, dip in egg, again in crumbs and fry two minutes in deep fat, then drain on brown paper. This is a good way of frying them. You can dip in the following batter: Two eggs, one teaspoonful salt, one eighth teaspoonfuI pepper, one cupful of bread flour, three-quarters cupful and pepper and add milk slowly to flour. Stir until smooth and well mixed. Combine mixtures.

maturity of her figure and bring out the lovely supple curves of her waist line. a curve that of late years has been lost in the shapeless blouses and big, straight corsets.
 When your growing girl goes to pick out her new frock she selects the one with the shortest, bunchiest skirt and the most distended of bouffant draper ies and exclaims. Isn't it too darling for anything!"
 If she inclines to picturesque effects she drapes her shoulders in a grace full f1chu, a la Marie Antoinette, and wears an exquisite Watteau hat tilted away up at the back and perhaps with one velvet streamer drawn around to float over one shoulder.
 Or for afternoon wear she may pre- fer the modes made famous by the beautiful Eugenie of France and Vic toria. of England.
 Her wide, much gathered skirt may be of taffeta, stiff and rustling and dis tended by means of stifening drop skirt, by reeds or stiffening run through ribbon castings or by facing at the bottom of her skirt.
 To add still further to the voluTni- nous effect, the wide skirt is trimmed with three deep gathered f1ounces or with row after row of taffeta ruches. These are box plaited and stitched along through the center, and the edges may be hemmed or fringed out. An other Victorian type of trimming that is fashionable is the narrow circular ruff1e, scalIoped on the bottom.
 Such a costume calls for a cape or pelerine of taffeta trimmed with taf- feta ruches, and a hat trimmed with tiIly lace that just veils the eyes. The waist of the gown must be very plain, with corded side front seams that may curve into the armhole or may extend

TNHE first straw hats shown which
 are to do duty in the south are of several types There are narrow boat shaped turbans of shiny split or pine apple straw decorated with big ribbon loops or fans. There are also flower teques, equally long and narrow, and tuI1e brimmed hats with enough straw trimming to make them spring models. One big black tu1le hat seen was shirred over a sailor frame and had encircIing narrow black straw braid on the upper brim and crown. The top of the crown was trans parent1y yelled by big tam puff of tulle. This gives the wide look that many new hats

to the shoulder seam, and the sleeves of formidable proportions may be sew ed with much fuI1ness into the arm holes. or they may be attached at drop shoulder line, as the dropping shoulder was distinctly fashionable during Victoria's reign.
 Many of the big puff sleeves have an 1nterlining of stiffening to hold them out in aggressive fu1lness, but it is in evening gowns that the new panniers and bouffant draperies are at their best. Skirts twelve and fourteen yards wide. f6Fmed of layer after layer of wonderfully toned chiffon, makes the foundation on which swirIing draperies or outstanding panniers of taffeta are mounted, or perhaps skirt of silver or cream chantilly lace will be worn over an underskirt of silver tissue, with a marvellous creation of taffeta superimposed. Many of these panniers are held away out from the waist by stiffening, making the curved in waist line even slenderer by comparison. The bodice of the newest gowns forms long slender point in front, and to keep this point in position on the skirt a whalebone is frequently inserted on the inside. At the sides and back the bodice ends at the waist line and is generally finished with a fine cording. It may be prin little scanned bodice or it may be closely swathed about the figure. lt
 The dainty gown pictured is one of the new novelty cottons, a check erboard in two tones. The 1ounce and skirt bottom are banded with a triple tier of embroidery, plain cloth and orange net, the embroidery being edged with white soutache. Fluted net gives the deep finish for the sleeves. A touch of orange color also accentuates the girdle and tie of braid. The waist is cut surpIice.

requisite of such a skirt is that 1t shall go on and fasten in least possi- ble time. If it has to be pulled and pinned around the waist line and is belt carefully adjusted it's chief merit of usefulness will be lacking. So in. trying on a ready made model or mak- ing a separate skirt at home see to it that the fit at the waist line is true and correct and that the belt is att tached to the skirt and will adjust it. self correctly by the fastening of a. single hook or button, or at most two.
