Buying a Hat.

Now that big hats are "the thing
again, it is no uncommon sight at
, all to walk down the street and see
before you what looks like nothing
in the world so much as child hid
den under huge, grown-up's UNI
brella. AS you overtake the curious
phenomenon you peer recklessly un-
der the enveloping bamboo, and are
startled to discover that no child
after all has wandered away from
home, taking the roof with it. but
only another woman has bought the
wrong hat
No small person should ever wear
very large hat. She loses herself
under it like the child under the big
umbrella. The brimless hat is the
best choice if one wishes TO give the
impression of increased height. and
the wide hat is not yet the only
thing in the picture. The boyish
cloche, and the saucy hat with the
rolling brim. SO becoming to the
smallish, ng-Iooking features,
are putting up coura geous fight for
their existence, and will no doubt win,
since women, if not noted for know
ing what they want are famous for
knowing how TO get it.
A curved or dropped brim on a
SIldlI person makes IIe Tx dp-
pear even shorter. The turned up
brim. on the other hand, by direct
ing the eye upward. causes person
to look taller than she actually is
Small. dropped brims, such the
pokes and mushrooms. are effective
and child-like. when ones smallness
is point of attractiveness, and it is
desired to emphasize it.
Bulky trimming is another thing that
was never intended for the little per
son. And in the same way, trimming
that stands out away from the hat
at a sharp angle. or in any way
breaks the simple line of the hat, is
always worn to her disadvantag ge.
The present fancy for putting the
trimming on top of the crown will
give you height.
If YOU have a small head and q
large body. the medium sized hat
will sort of even things up. A lot
depends upon the size and contour

What TomorrowMeans to You
Genini.
BY MARY BLAKE.

The planetary aspects indicate that
tomorrow there will not be expert
! enced any particular sense of pep"
or vim. On the contrary. everything
points to a rather lethargical, albeit
contented, frame of mind. Under
such conditions, it would be advisable,
if practicable, to leave in abeyance
anything that demands concentration.
or exceptional effort, and to do as
little as possible outside of ordinary,
routine work. In the afternoon the
conditions show a slight Improvement,
and some vibrations of a stimulating
nature will be felt If you are in
terested in sports or outdoor recrea-
tions, this should be n propitious
time for indulging your taste.
Children born tomorrow WILL ac-
cording to the signs, enjoy fairly nor
NAL health, although they will be sub
ject. more or less, to the ailments re-
quiring careful nutrition and an
abundance OF, outdoor air. Their dis
positions, as rule, will be cheerful
and merry, although, in some in
stances, there will be an excessive
tendency to introspection which, at
times, is liable to provoke moodish-
ness and morosenesS. Their charac-
teristics will be pliable, and they will
prove easily amenable to kind and af-
fectionate influences: much more so,
in fact, than to any harsh, discipli-
nary measures.
If tomorrow is your birthday, you
are at no time initiative, but pos
SeSS great fund of originality, and
YOU are rather disposed to ignore con-
ventions that do not agree with your
own particular point of view. You
are good executive, in the home
the office, or the workshop, and pos
sess exceptional capacity for the alb
Sorption of details. In addition to
these material assets. you have a
considerable degree of mechanical
skill with an inventive turn of mind.
You do not act on impulse. but
think deeply and seriously before TAX
ink any important step. You know
how to keep your own counsel, and
are rather close mout he'd in regard to
your own affairs. No friend ever APP
peals TO YOU in vain. and YOU are al
ways prepared to lend helping hand
to those that stand in need of it. No
one can justly accuse YOU OF being
self-centered, as YOU always evince a
warm interest in affairs not connected
with your own personal efforts

Children Should Know How to Swim
BY LYDIA LIE BARON WALKER.

AS soon as children are of an age
to notice anything. water has fasci-
nation for them. The bath, with the
little toys that have become a part
of it for the modern youngster, is
one of the days delights. \ mud pud-
die in a city street or sparkling
creek in the country will gather
It's quota of little folk and there is
no place where children enjoy playing
more than on an ocean beach.
If children's love for the. water is to
be encouraged. so also must their fit
ness for water pastimes be made the
duty of every parent. Perhaps the
parent is in need of the same kind
of pleasurable discipline as the child,
Such is certainly the case if he or she
does not know how to swim. In learn

people seem to take more naturally

horseback riding.
Happy Combination.
For parent and child to be learning
together, gives a delightful sense of
comradeship and competition. 1t is
not merely for pleasure, however, that
YOU should give time and effort in
learning to swim. 1t is one thing you
can do to insure your child'S life and
your own peace of mind when he is on
the water. In the Scout movement,
now becoming widespread throughout
the country, TO know how to swim
and swim well is considered not merely
an advantage, but a necessity.
In teaching your child 10 swim you
are opening up for him a whole new
range of interests. Canoeing. which
should never be considered as a recre
alton TO those who do not know how
To swim, is but one possibility: boating
of all kinds becomes safer. One needs
no better argument than to read the
casualties at watering places, to un-
jerstand the advisa bility of this.

Learning to swim is. after all. such
simple thing, and SO attractive. that
it is strange TO think any one would

water is to incur a debt of gratitude
which he can hardly repay.
Surprise Party.
The father of three sturdy little
sons realized that the time had come
when swimming should be among

pose took them to the beach. In
order 10 demonstrate what swimming
was like, he proposed to dive from

when he feels well he eats in various

have a simple diet. Will you tell me

paper?-Mrs. Fl. f. S.

husbands nephritis first, although you
will understand, | am sure, that this
must be subject to a physicians s ap-
| proval. II is obvious that with only
| one kidney to take care of nitrogenous
| waste. the diet must be low in animal
protein. The general list includes a
very little meat once day if the
| physician permits. The bulk of the
diet should be chosen from such foods
as cereals, stale bread, tapioca, arrow
root. cornstarch puddings. milk,
| cream, oragne and grape juice, with
only minimum quantity of either tea
or coffee if the taste demands.
In certain complications the break
| fast might include baked apple or
| orange or stewed prunes with homi-
ny or other cereals for breakfast
| foods
Dinner calls for baked or mashed
potato with dishes chosen from the
following: string beans. lettuce. Gu
cumbers, cabbage or carrots; desserts
of either fresh fruit or tapioca pud-
ding or cornstarch.
The children's list I have marked
carefully according to my ideas as to
| when the children may safely eat the
certain foods. You will notice that I
put the age as 16 in a great many
cases. This is done because of the
fact that children's digestions do not
feel grown up until they are grown
up themselves, and the foods spoken
of are best reserved for adult life.
Here is the list:
