PARIS.-A very cold winter or
very mild one, a very warm summer
or chilly one usually has an effect.
If it comes in Paris the effect is apt
to bear results on the fashion of
women's clothes the world over--if 1t
comes in and about New York, let us
say, makers and manufacturers of
clothes feel a very decided effect in
buying tendencies even though the
actual style is not changed thereby.
One or two very warm summers IN
Paris just after the revolution are
said to have added much to the popu-
larity of the so-called nude" fashions
Of the time. Woman of fashion who
remained after the emigrees had fed
delighted to see how little their
clothes weighed. To weigh ones
clothes and to brag about their light
just as few years ago, when the
fashion world was first thrilled by
the wearing of heavily beaded and
metal embroidered clothes. women
spoke rather braggingly of the
weight Of their metallic evening
frocks.
The present summer and the one
before have treated Paris to unusual
ly warm weather, and the American
who watches French women dress
has been Interested to see the result
How does the French woman set out
to dress to suit warm summer day!
Has she anything to show the Amer
lean woman in solving this problem?
If one were very scientific doubt
MS one would submit ones frocks
to laboratory tests to find which one
really permitted the least heat to
penetrate to the skin. Then we should
doubtless find that pure white light
weight, but Opaque, clothes were our
best choice and all black our worst
The French woman is most COM
Portable in warm weather when she
feels well dressed. And she feels
dressed when she feels that her
clothes are not showing the effects
Of heat or humidity. so she seldom
choose the all-white cotton or linen
frock for warm days. because, though
this may be stamped with scientific
approval as a heat reslster, the
French woman cannot overlook that
white cotton or linen is hard to wear.
1t Is easily mussed and it shows each
wrinkle and crease. 1t is expensive.
1t keeps the heat from the body, but
reflects the light back into the eyes
of the wearer or observer. One feels

Peter Rabbit. on the bank Of the
Big River, was so excited that he
couldn't keep still. He had seen
Sooty the Chimney Swift meet with
an accident out over the very middle
of the Big River and fall into the
water. At first he didn't know what
had become of Sooty. He looked for
him to rise from the water again,
but sooty didn't.
"Oh. dear!" cried Peter. "Can it be
that Sooty has been drowned?"
Then something moving far out on
the water caught his attention. At
first all he could see was a little
black spot that seemed to be moving.
/ Presently he made out that it was
coming nearer. 1t was moving in the
queerest way. 1t seemed to be flop

John made a quict I'm along the
rotting wharf to!sa the boat that
| Ferry had just tied. He gave that
slowmoving individual quick shove
as he ran. His thoughts were racing.
He remembered that Merriam had
taken off her heavy sport shoes be-
fore she had stepped into the canoe.
He knew that she could swim beauti-
fully in salt water when she was
In bathing suit, but he was sick
with dread at the thought of her

water with skirts Tapping. He found
himself recalling with horror time
years before when he had been
tangled for several minutes in the
eel grass that fiourished in the bot
tom of the treacherous little lake.
Ferry was helping valiantly, but
the clumsy fiat-bottomed boat was
moving slowly toward the visibly
sinking canoe.
John wet his parched throat.

pluckily. Don't worry"
But John did worry. He was
nearly a quarter of mile away and
he knew that the canoe was filling
more rapidly than its occupants
realized. and he was afraid If Mer-
riam didn't jump at once she would
be sucked under with the boat.
He sighed with relief as he saw
Kirk Squires throw the paddle.
Catch 1t as you do" Squire's voice
trembled.
Merriam nodded. But the next
moment, bewildered by too many
directions, she tried to stand The
canoe tipped crafty. In another
second both she and Squires were in

Distorp Of Dour Same

BAXTER
vARiATioNS-Bac Baker.
RACIAL oRiGiN-AngIo- Saxon.


soURcE-An occupation.
This name Is typical Of very large
class of our family names, that which
has been developed from occupations
and it Is Of particular interest as in
volving peculiar changes which have
taken place in the masculine and fem
mime forms Of many English words.
The family name OF Baxter Is di-
rectly traceable to the feminine form OF
the old Anglo-Saxon word for baker
and which appeared, about the time
family names began to develop out of
mere descriptive appellations, in both
the forms OF "bakster" and baxter"
Il does not necessarily follow, how
ever, that all the Baxter families were
founded by woman bakers, any more
than the Baker families are all de-
scended from some particular man who
followed this avocation, notwithstand-
ing the fact that woman commercial
bakers were very numerous. The truth
began to crystalline the masculine and
feminine forms of the word Rad be-
come confused. as is today the case
in our word 'tyoungster," which gen.
orally is used in reference to boys, and
Is less often inclusive Of girls. Yet
this word is feminine form. The
masculine; which has long been out Of
ing to the German 'junker.'
Sometimes. but infrequently, Baxter
is traceable as a corruption Of Beck,
which in the pronunciation Of Sussex
would tend to become Back" then
''Bachs," and finally Baxter.

Farmer Browns Boy, "it Is Sooty the

right here. 1t will be q wonder IL

SO Farmer Browns Boy watched
Sooty anxiously, and Peter Rabbit
more anxiously Sooty watched the
shore He saw Farmer Browns Boy
and for moment despair took pos
lisession of him. You see, he never had
been afraid of Farmer Browns Boy
because he never had had to go near
enough to FARMER brOWnS BOY TO De
afraid. But now he was helpless. and
when he reached shore there would
be no way to escape from Farmer
Browns Boy.
But it was only for a moment that
Sooty hesitated. Fear Of Farmer
Browns Boy was overcome by the
greater fear Of what might happen
to him on the water. So he kept right
on going. iop, flop, flop. mop. and
with every flop he drew nearer to the
shore and to Farmer Browns Boy.
With a last flop he reached the
shore. He was too tired to lift a
wing when Farmer Browns Boy
stopped and gently picked him up.
He was too tired even to be afraid.
Whatever might happen to him now
couldn't possibly be worse than what
might have happened to him had he
not reached the shore.
