French openings this Summer, has
one distinct advantage over the dol
man worn a few years ago. The por-
ton under the arm is roomier-hence
more comfortable. The dolman we
wore few years ago held the arms
down-and this proved annoying to
the woman who drove her own car.
The present dolman would offer no
such trouble.
Vionnet is one of the French dress
makers who is showing this new
sleeve. In fact, she has done so much
with it that sometimes the sleeves
are simply called Vionnet sleeves. A
new frock said to be copied from a
Vionnet model shows a tunic Of black
crepe satin with dolman sleeves of
metal brocaded silk chiffon. They are
roomy enough at the top. but are so
constructed as to fit quite closely
around the lower arm. Martial ct
Armand has also played with the idea
the result is what we call the

Your Baby and Mine
BY MYRTLE MEYER ELDRED.
Complementary Feelings.

Mrs. J. F. A. writes: "Our baby is
nearly months old, and weighs ten
and one-quarter pounds. l do not have
enough to nurse her and now feed at
least two feelings of a patent food.
She sleeps we'll but does not gain very
much. My milk has been tested and
is very low in butter fat, though l
have been drinking over a quart of
mink daily, eat vegetables and fruit
and usually cooked cereal for dinner.
Shall / continue to nurse the baby,
or would 1t be better to wen her?
When may I begin feeding vegetables,
and how? Would YOU advise cod liver
oil?"
Answer. Since your milk is insult
ficient in quantity and in butter fat,
the more sensible procedure would be
to give IA feeding Of COWS milk
directly after each nursing, this for
mula to be fairly rich in cream. In that
way you make up to the baby for the
| lack of butter fat in your milk and
also the amount in quantity that is
| insufficient to nourish her. The baby
is making a very slow gain in weight,
| but this ought to make things right
and still make it possible for you to
continue to nurse her.
Won't you send for leaflet on
| Weaning and Feeding, and one marked
| No. S, which gives advice about cod
liver oil? Please inclose self-addressed
and stamped envelope with your re-
quest.
Mrs X. writes to ask how one may
treat the breasts so that they will re.
gain their former f1rmness after nurs
ing a baby. 1t can't be done. This is
one Of the aftermaths of nursing
which no one can avoid or improve
The use of camphorated Oil may have
had something to do with the shrunk
en- condition. as camphor dries the
| tissues, SO 1t Is said.
