Jackets and Skirts.

That jackets will be short rather than long seems to be q foregone con- clusion, judging by the South-wear fashions, and etons and boleros are de- cidedly in evidence. Not only suits but dresses, too, are seen in these eton and belero styles, and very smart and youthful are these effects worn over blouses of crepe organdie.
 Jacket and coat sleeves are narrow and close-htting and in wrist length; skirts, too, are modelled with conser- vation of material very much in mind, for they are cut decidedly narrow and fairly short, though not as short as some fashionable skirts of last season. The average width of modish skirts is about one and one-half yards around and the length from four to six inches off the ground.

War Savings and Thrift Stamps.

war SaVlngS and hrift stamps.
 During the month of February the receipts coming into the treasury de- pertinent through the sale of War Saw ings and Thrift stamps totaled $41, 100000 It is reported that they aver age now about $2,000,000 a day. Re turns from the same source in England were $37000,000. The War Savings and Thrift stamps give everyone a chance to be 'in" on the great busi- ness of winning the war. They are a fine investment and within the reach of everyone. Congress set $2,000,000,- GOO as the amount to be raised by this means for the year. If this amount is reached 1t will cover the entire cost of the governments shipbuilding program for the year. It has now from this source enough revenue daily to build 10000 tons of shipping and altogether has received to date funds for building 100000 tons, or 94 ships of 5000 tons each.
 Our strength in this war has not made itself felt yet as it will be felt. Great reserves of it will be forthcom- ing. We have hardly felt the pinch of the war yet. In the War Savings and Thrift stamps we have an opportu nity to all take a hand in building ships, and they must be built. Be sides this the Thrift stamps are edu- eating people, especially young peo- pie and children, to save and to use money for investment instead

Georeette Blouses Trimmed in Val.
 ''If you haven't seen the new blouses of crepe georgette, trimmed in val lace, you are missing something" said blouse buyer who has just returned from the Eastern markets. "They are very enticing, and are shown in regu- lar, as well as slip-over style"
 According to this same authority the rage for filet, both real and imi- tatiop, continues, and some pretty models are slip-overs with sailor col lars trimmed in filet. Some of the new geergettes have litle collars of white mousseiine da s0ie, which which laun- ders very satisfactorily.
 The freshest, prettiest of the new blouses are of net, in white and light shades. Batiste and voile are very popular for the high-necked ones, of which there are great many shown.

No matter what ails your child,

No matter what ails your child, a gentle, thorough laxative should al- ways be the first treatment given.
 If your little one is out of sorts, half-sick, isn't resting, eating and act ing naturally--look, Mother! see if tongue is coated.

Work Which Only Women Can Do.

Whatever our other activities, we must Ego on with our knitting," in very literal sense. SoX, sweaters, wfistlets, and bands and then more sox will be needed in far greater num- bers than ever before. Surgical dress ing and bandages, also, must be sup piled by the shipload, and food must be conserved. In these affairs the world leans on women for support. But if each woman gives little time sys- tematically to Red Cross work and looks after the conservation of food in her own home, the great total of achievement will do the work and fill needs depending on us. Our part is easy compared to that of the soldiers and sailors. It is amazing that there are women, with time and means at their disposal, who, because they have no relatives in the army or navy, are taking no interest, much less any ac- tive part in the work to be done. They are not worth fighting for, and should be held up to the scorn they deserve. Now is the time when cold selfishness will betray itself.

Need of influence.

Every one of us needs influence and some impulse outside of ourselves to compel us to strive for our ideals. The best impulse that can uplift the life Is the friendship of Jesus. He says: 'Ye are as friends if ye do what soever I command you.'"
