Birthday Bio~Briefs Famous Women
She sweeps like a baleful crimson

She sweeps like baleful crimson shadow across the jeweled, the stain ed, Fifteenth Century. She was edu- cated with care, and famous for her beauty and charm. In a corrupt age she played her corrupt part. Her father married her to the duke of Ferrara. She married and re-married and was given to dissolute nobles who never dominated her master spirit. She is entirely worthy of stepping into Grand Opera where 9 gleam falls across her sensual being. the gleam of mother love. In the thrilling scene at the banquet in Ferrara, the guests start to see the grand portal thrown open, and a masked woman appear. '"The Bor- gia!" goes up the cry. They find that their goblets of wine have been pois- oned by order of Lucretia Borgia, to avenge the Venetians present who had endeavored to kill her son. As the collins slowly are brought into the banqueting hall, Lucretia dis covers her son among the guests Gennaro declines to drink the anec- dote his mother holds oBt to him and dies with his friends.

When the little boy steps from his dresses to suits it feels to his family like he was having curIs cut off to be a boy. The smock suit offers an easy transition period between the dress and suit. It has regular lit tie trousers. The smock is nothing more nor less than a very short dress. The sleeves are set in with q cordiug of se1f-material. There is Q nice deep roll collar that stands up well and a yoke which is smartly finished in front with tailor's arrows Note that the sleeves repeat the note that is begun when the collar is clasped midway with two round but tons.
 This might be made up in linen. any of the cotton materials or in a wooden. \ French flannel in cream would go beautifully for his best suit.
