 Many Christmas Suggestions Here. Uncle James who reads only the class ics. The Old Salem doorway book ends are delightful in their quaint de- signs and charming colors. Lincoln and the Slave-with the two book ends in different style-are popular this year. Or you may have the dog and-the-cat; or the bathing girls, or the ballet girls; or bronze busts of Emerson and Dickens-and scores of other styles. Brass door-knockers make charming Christmas gifts-if the recipient has a door to put the knocker on. There are cunning bed- room door knockers some in brass, others in flower decorated china.
 There is no lack of wearable gifts, either. Enchanting new boudoir caps, luxurious bathrobes for both sexes and slippers galore. The latest style in feminine bath slippers is pie tured; no homely felt slippers these, but tricksy affairs made of pink silk ribbon with soft. downy soles and gay rosettes of narrow ribbon at either side of the instep. Loops of tine mar row ribbon may be tied around the ankle to give the slipper the modern. sandal effect-and the ribbon loops make convenient handle to hang the slippers up by.

Her gown is of American Beauty taffeta with a panel of silver lace down the front and pale pink silk roses effec- lively arranged here and there. The telephone lady's head and arms are of tinted bisque. You can purchase these dolls with head and arms set on a light frame-something like small lamp p-shade frame - and make the skirt yourself in any color you please.

own season. Sef-centered,
 sgrown-up people who have no
 > little folk to consider in their scheme of things, may overlook the fact, but 1t is true nevertheless. Christ mas week belongs to the children. It is one long romp from the night be- fore Christmas when stockings are hung up with ardent anticipations, to the day after New Years when affairs of grown people press the youngsters interests once more back to second place. For one thing it is holiday week. School Is out. Kindergarten is ] out. Dancing school closes up for the nonce. And everything Is for the en- tertainment of the children. There are special matinees for them at the theatres-and their bright little faces line the boxes In jolly groups. There are pantomimes for them, and skat- ing carnivals. There are lunch parties at the hotels and restaurants for little folk home from school and therefore to be feted and made much of.
 Christmas Party Frocks Important.
 For parties there must be party frocks-and party suits. Frocks of sheer linen lawn and lace for the littlest girls; of velvet and chiffon for the slim little girls of seven to twelve; and frilly taffeta frocks for the flap pers. Suits of velvet for the tiny boys and fo: the bigger boys, neat knicker- booker suits of navy blue serge or dark oxford gray. with shining patent leather dancing pumps and immacu- late turned down white collars. Here and there jolly little sailor lad in long brooches and blouse with chew rons and lanyard.
 Wee tots who used to wear batiste frocks to parties are wearing sheer handkerchief linen dresses this win ter. Exquisitely fine, transparent linen lawn with hand stitchery throughout and sometimes real Irish lace by way of trimming. There is a distinction about these sheer linen models that cannot be matched even in silken stuffs and the cobwebby linen looks very lovely over slips of palest pink or blue crepe de chine, with sash and hair ribbon to match. The very palest pinks and blues are used such as French children wear; pink that is just cream infused with shell tint and blue that is so delicate a real sky blue beside 1t makes 1t look wash ed out.
 Gay Colored Taffetas.
 If party frock has bright color, 1t is some smart. brave shade more modern than old-fashioned pink or blue. Sunset taffeta, apricot taffeta, turquoise taffeta. jade taffeta, you see at children's parties nowadays, and there are even flame and orange frocks for fiappers. A party dress of sunset taffeta for little girl of eleven has a gathered skirt scalloped at the edge and with five rows of cording at the hip. Over this bouffant skirt Is a flat, round-necked bodice that points down below the waist-line in a corded edge. And the short, puffed sleeves are trimmed with corded ruffles. For a mere baby of four is gay party frock of cerise taffeta with round neck and very high waist-line; the
