All the long procession of maids, from Kindergarten tot 10 college girl. will be fittingly clad this fall in sim pie and substantial clothes. Whether 1t is because of the war or for other reasons, the new froeks for children are unusually plain and they are the forerunners of fall styles If k un- likely that anything very different will follow them for they are tastefully de- signed. School outfits may be got un- derway now with success assured since all straws that show which wa the winds of fashion blow, point toward simplicity of design as a dominant fea- ture of coming styles.
 Furthermore, it is the part of pa triotism to make over and use again all woolen clothes. Dresses that can not be remodeled for grown people will serve in place of new goods for mak- ing children's frocks and this con- servation of wooden materials is some thing to be proud of At the right of the picture above there Is dark serge frock for girl of eight years or more which has every requirement of sue cessful school dress and suggests a model for made-oyer dress. It has plain bodice and plaited skirt It is frightened with white braid and has two very practical pockets. But what will delight its wearer more are its soldierly touches in the shoulder straps and narrow strap that extends

Women who sew well find needle work among the pleasantest of occu- pations during the long, warm days of midsummer. It is good time in which to make up undermuSlins and grace the sheer soft materials that are used these days for underclothes with hand sewing and fancy stitches. These harmonize with the dainty fabrics used better than machine work.
 Only lightweight and sheer weaves of cotton and silk concern the maker of underwear in these times. The choice lies among soft, washable silks and satins, including much crepe de chine and other wash silks, and batiste, cotton crepe and nainsook. In silks. crepe de chine is the favorite and in cottons, batiste. Both these are liked in light pink and flesh color as well as they are In white. and II IS likely that the number of garments made in pink exceeds that made in white. The favorite finish for crepe de chine is Val or cluny lace, French knots, hemstitching, fine tucks and little embroidery. Recently consider able filet has been used in night dresses.
 The long-sleeyed nightdress appears Ito be a thing of the past. Of the two models shown in the picture one has very short kimono sleeves and the oth- Ter is sleeveless. The gown at the left lis of white batiste with short yoke

EASY TO MISJUDGE CHILDREN
Youngsters Called "Stupid" in Early Years Have Later Been Found
 Possessed of Genius.

Let me remind you of the sufferings of the stupid" child. Real stupidity is a great afIliction, but one which rarely receives the sympathy it stands so much in need of. Now, many chil- dren who are thought stupid are not stupid at all. They may have certain defects of a physical nature which can be remedied, or their schooling and ed- ucation in general is of q kind that is not adapted to their special needs.
 If juggling with figures, enormously called arithmetic, is made test of in- telligence, then the constructive or ar tistic genius of child may remain un- discovered; and if parents and teach CTS judge those children to be bright who can, by so-called parsing, arrange the dead bones of the language in ar- tificial order or who shine out from the others by brilliant recitations and unchildlike discussions of adult prob- lens at graduation exercises, then the dreamer, the philosopher and the poet will pass for dunces.
 It is only too true that many of our greatest minds have been considered absolute failures during their school career, not to say in the homes of their childhood. How many of them had to assert their native eXcellency against the most violent resistance of those who were too blind to perceive the di- vine spark in their children's souls?- Dr. Maximilian P E. Groszemann in June Humanitarian.

The fullness in the skirt is arranged in tucks, very fine and run in by hand and the skirt also hemstitched to the beading No sort of undermuslins may be called finished without a touch of color in ribbon that is fashioned into roSettes or bows and ends. Pink satin ribbon is threaded through the beading in this slip-over gown and tied in a rosette with knotted loops and ends at the front. Small bows of 1t are perched on each sleeve.
 Crepe de chine in flesh color with fine Val edging and insertion makes the simple gown shown on the seat ed figure. Parallel groups of very narrow tucks in clusters of four shape the garment above the waistline. The neck and sleeves are finished with a wide edging and narrower insertion is let in at the bust as shown in the picture An envelope chemise to match engages the attention of its wearer. These garments of crepe de chine are favored by many women be- cause they launder so easily. Cotton crepes are liked on this account and do not require ironing.

GIVES NEW LEASE OF LIFE
Overcoat of stucco Recommended for the RejuVenation of Buildings,
 Somewhat Out of Date.

"Go through all the streets of the city crying, New lamps for old! New lamps for old" is one of the stril- ing lines in q successful musical com edy that recently visited Cleveland.
 We would paraphrase this line by saying "G0 through all the streets of the city crying, New homes for old !, New homes for oldr
 How can this be doHe?s you ask. By overcoating old houses with stuc- CO.," is our answer. There are hun dreds of frame or wooden houses in Cleveland that are built in the style of architecture that prevailed about fifteen or twenty years ago. These houses are substantial and solid but out of date in appearance. By little alteration, widening the porehes, en- Iarging one=story bay windows and "Ls" and eliminating gingerbread and giving the whole an oXereoating of stucco, you get q house as good as new, and in fact in some particulars, better.
 The advantages of this plan apply not only to the house improved as a single residence, making it more at tractiye arefitecturally and covering It with waterproof and fire resisting exterior, but 1t also applies in cases where it is desired to convert an old single house into q double or four family. A small additional investment will convert what is now rather homely and diIapidated single resi- denee into very attractive money making vestment.=Cleyeland Plain Dealer.

CALIFORNIA SYRUP OF FIGS" CAN'T HARM CHILDREN AND

Motheri Your child isn't naturally cross and peevish. See if tongue is coated; this Is a sure sign the little stomach, liver and bowels need a cleansing at once.
 When listless, pale, feverish, full of cold, breath bad, throat sore, doesn't eat, sleep or act naturally, has stom- ach-ache, diarrhna, remember, q gen tie liver and bowel cleansing should always be the first treatment given.
 Nothing equals "California Syrup of Figs" for children's ills; give tea spoonful, and in a few hours all the foul waste, sour bile and fermenting food which is clogged in the bowels passes out of the system, and you have a well and playful child again. All children love this harmless deli- cious fruit laxative" and 1t never fails to effect a good "inside" cleans ing. Directions for babies, children of all ages and grown-ups are plainly on the bottle.
 Keep 1t handy in your home. X little given today saves a sick child tomor- row, but get the genuine. Ask your druggist for a bottle of "California Syrup of Figs" then see that it is made by the California Fig Syrup Company."-Adv.

The most popular Of all American

was Of the Barred variety, which is
yet the most popular of all the colors.
Early in the breeding of Barred Ply
mouth Rocks fanciers reported the ap-
pearance of white chicks. They were
sports" and some were bred together,
producing the present variety of White
Plymouth Rocks. They have attained
great popularity, widely bred, both for
utility and fancy, and have proven
perfectly satisfactory in either capac-
lty.
They are hardy and especially adapt
ed to farms. The hens lay large dark
brown eggs of grade much sought
In certain localities.
The chicks are vigorous, strong and
active, and grow exceptionally fast on
range, reaching maturity at from five

months old. They are readily salable
for the highest grade of market pouls
try at all ages from broiler size to
