How silently the falling snow
Blanketed the frozen grounds
Earth's children slept in quiet peace,
Day dawned on miracle profound.
How grudgingly We got to work
To Gear that measly little walk;
With puff and grunt and growl and
groan
And over.strenuous talk
Or did we bear a conscience scared
BY dutys oyer-long reglect,
And trust to luck and Soils good
warm rays
To move the snow as he elect?
On just ana unjust falls the snow;
But law should be alike for all
How cutely some escape it's clutch
With privilege eer at their call.

HATS FOR LATE SUMMER.
BY ANNE RITTENHoUsE.

head in midsummer and straw and
flowers right after Christmas has not
been one Of the foibles of the women
who are looked upon as leaders OF
fashion.
So we let Paris get the lead of US
in hat fashions quite willingly. II
you need new hat in August you
are wise to select one of some sum-
mer fabric. There will still be eight
weeks more that it can give service,
for American women seldom take to
autumn millinery until they come to
town after their summer holiday, anj
the tendency now is to stay away
through September.
Meanwhile we can watch with in
terest what the French women are
doing. and get good ideas for what
we shall select as cooler weather
comes.
The fashions Of every season could
be written in terms of colors, and this
summer both in France and among
we'll dressed women here tones espe-
cially In evidence have been black
and white and combinations of black
and white. together with the whole
range of violet shades.
Before we began to feel the strong
tug toward violet here, yellows were
in very good repute. You always
found them we'll represented among
che younger women. Now. that we
sent out by French dress centers we
would do we'll to remember yellow.
1t has been remarked that while the
very obvious thing among fashion
able women in France was to wear
mauve and deeper violet hues, the
woman with very good taste wore
yellow, yellow with black preferably.
And this combination carries an air
Of distinction that would be. impos-
sible had all France taken it up.
All this by way of explaining the
hat in the sketch today. 1t is vel
vet. because French women still feel
a satisfaction in wearing warm hats
in midsummer. 1t is yellow, because
the woman who selected it chose not
to be in the procession of those who
have worn nothing but black. black
and white and violet tones for weeks.

Vitamins.


Some unidentified substance. pres
ent in certain foods and absent from
other foods. that has become known
under the name of a vitamin, seems
to be indispensable in the diet of a
young animal 1t is essential for
normal nutrition and growth. Babies
are young animals. only not quite SO
well cared for, as are most young
animals.
The fat of milk or butter is rich in
vitamins, while pig fat is poor in vita
Minis. Perhaps the nature of the diet
of the COW and the pig accounts for
this difference The cows feed con-
tables, the whole cereals-each of
which items is rich in vitamins. The
hogs feed consists largely Of items
not rich in vitamins. From some re-
cent experiments of English physiolo-
sists there is reason to think that If
the hog is fed upon grass the lard
will contain vitamins. Ordinarily. as
we know, lard and oleomargarin are
poor in vitamins, whereas butter the
fat of egg-yolk. and even the abdomi-
nal fat of cattle (Which is used in
some brands of oleomargarln) are
rich in vitaminS.
These observations go to show that
the character of the diet influences
the store of vitamins in the body. This
is of the utmost importance for the
nursing mother to understand, Tor
upon the character of her diet VIII
depend the normal nutrition and
growth of the baby. -
Now, in spite of fanciful objec-

liquor in the pan. Then remove 1t
from the oven, spread on top OF the
stuffed fish a layer of bread crumbs
moistened with melted butter, and slip
the pan back into the oven until the
crumbs are brown. Serve hot, with
the following:
Egg Sauce.-Make one cup Of plain
white sauce and add to it one hard
boiled egg finely minced. Il have
repeatedly given a white sauce recipe
in this column. but If any one has
missed it, l will gladly send it upon
receipt Of stamped, self-addressed en-
velope.)
Potato Cake au Gratin.-Boil nine
large potatoes until tender, then
mash them, season with salt, pepper
and butter, and add one beaten egg.
Form this mixture into a mound in
an oblong glass baking dish. and bake
forty minutes in a good oven. then re-
move from oven cover with finely
chopped American cheese. and slip
dish back into oven for cheese to
melt. Serve at once.

Three Kinds of Trimming.

Like the three little shells which
the followers Of the circus used to
manipulate for the benefit Of the bet
ting public, designers are juggling
three different kinds of trimmings for
the fall hats. These are roughly
divided into metallized ostrich
plumes, flowers and foliage, and coll
ored quilts. There are, Of course.
numberless other decorations, such as
cellophane and leather appliques, but
these are regarded as novelties rather
than standard effects.
For the dress hat, the metalized
plumes are eminently suited, their
softness making them available for
shower arrangements. The new
fuschia tones are used in the flower
and foliage trimmings, large oak
leaves being splotched with violet
tones and autumn reds. Quills gener-
ally are solid in color and the color
combinations are extremely brilliant

If play is to do more than pass
away the time for children; if it is
to give them the development we de-
Sire for the improvement of their
lives and the life of the race. three
things must be considered in connec-
tion with it. First, there must be space
large enough given to the children
to run in. The pity Of city life is the
lack of such space, which parks and
Fairgrounds must supply. The pity
of country life is that such space is
everywhere to be had and hardly
anywhere put to good use. Second,
there must be organization to make
play interesting and growth pro-
Games, the great socialiZ-
ing factor of play, are not known
instinctively; they have to be learn
ed, and, if learned, taught. A group
of boys will play base ball with very
little teaching, but some they must
have. if only from an older boy.
Lastly, games must be played which
use the muscles of the trunk and
.rms as well as of the legs. We
nave two sets of muscles. the funda
mental, or large muscles of the
trunk, arms and legs. and the ac-
cessory, or small muscles of the
fingers, and speech. The former are
the first to come, both in the race
and in the child, and the last to go
with the coming of old age, paraly-
sis, or any progressive decay of the
nervous system. The second are the
last to come. the first to go, and in
volve delicate co-ordinations. These
are, however. the most in use in mod
ern life, and involve severe nervous
strain. 1t costs many times the nerv-
Gus effort to write ones name than
it costs to walk across the floor. OBJ
viously children's play should de-
velop and train the fundamental
muscles first, to give nervous stabil-
ity and release the accessory mus
cles from strain.

Fall Suit Styles.

PARIS, August 10.-The coats and
suits shown for fall in the last two
days by the Haute Coutoure continue
to emphasize the straight and slightly
longer skirts. and the use of cape
effects to the waist line. Fur trim
mings are extensively used, but in
narrow bands rather than in more
heavy effects. The dresses shown in
dicate the prevalence of the longer
and are given interest by the use of
Sits and by stuffed cushion effects
for hens and collars. Fringe is re-
tanned as a trimming for evening
dresses.

tions by the misinformed to this. that
and the other vegetable. fruit or meat
in the diet of the nursing mother. II
is unwise to omit any article of diet
which the mother would ordinarily
consume if she were not nursing a
baby. On the contrary. the nursing
mother should strive to have even a
greater variety. as certainly as she
requires a greater quantity. of food
throughout the period of lactation,
for the best interest of the baby.
Especially does she need greens. fresh
fruits, and such vitamin-rich items as
green onions, cucumbers, raw cab
bage (slaw). spinach. tomatoes peas.
string beans. asparagus. carrots. and
the like. Let no foolish prejudices
prevent her from partaking freely Of
these valuable foods. Unless the
mothers diet includes a liberal va
riety of vitamin-rich foods-and all
vitamins come originally from vege-
table foods-the baby will suffer from
a deficiency of vitamins in the milk.
