Print Figures Are Less Startling
BY MARY MARSHALL.

makers show no disposition to use any
more of these figured materials than
ever. There are times and occasions
for the printed frock, and just the
fact that your eye is taken by a GER
tain figured fabric is not of itself
sufficient reason to assume that you
would look we'll in a dress cut from 1t.
Print figures are perhaps less star
Ting than they were a season ago.
Flowers are usually small. rather COM
pact. The enormous pink and RED
roses that sprawled over georgettes
and silk crepes a year or so ago are
no more. There are intricate pic
torial designs that show ships a-sail-
ing upon seas of any color you choose
and maps and landscapes have been
able to dress goods, but these large
patterns are perhaps exceptions
rather than the rule.
There is something perennially
plea sing about the fabric that shows a
more or less regular arrangement OF
dots. The dots do not have to be the
conventional polka sort. One of the
new silks shows a regular arrange
ment of poker chips. the exact like
ness of which las been reproduced by
means of photography. A design
showing a life-like image of tack,
repeated at regular intervals, is to be
seen on another of the new silks.
The georgette that was used for the
frock shown today was printed with
design taken from glass headed pins
in different colors, placed in circles.
ANY chance If passing of the high
heel for street wear seems to have
been sidetracked, at least for the pres
ent, for many of the shoes worn at
present have a heel even higher than
that to which we have been accus'
toned.

Your Baby and Mine
BY MYRTLE MEYER ELpREp.

| Mrs. r. f. u. writes: "Will you tell
me If my method OF keeping my H.
month-old baby covered meets with
your approval? I have two double
lightweight blankets. hTese 1 use
alternately. pin this around the
baby's chest just snugly enough so
| il won't slip off and then all the way
| down as If 1t were a sleeping bag
| Doing this accomplishes several
| things. Tt prevents baby sucking his
thumb does away with any possibi'
lily of smothering; and keeps him
warm at night.
II found that large safety pins made
such holes in the blankets and sheets.
Ordinary pins are easily snapped
open. feel pretty strongly about
! this method, but am willing to abide
mighty good"
| Answer-Now who wouldn't he
pleased by such artful fattery? I do
| think the idea splendid-in fact, have
an idea that more than once 1t has
been suggested in this very column,
, but with one alteration. Pin the
| blanket around under the baby's arms
| instead of over them. l think the
baby's arms should be free. Pinned
thus under the arm pits will keep the
covers over his body, allow him liberty
of movement, even to turning over,
| taking the blanket with him but not
losing it, and his arms can be free to
assume any natural position. A hight
gown with long sleeves will keep the
| baby's arms warm, and IL IL is quite
chilly these can be allowed to come
down over the hand. Don't you like
| this idea better?
Mrs. G.. p. C.--Keep on scalding or
boiling the milk this Summer. 1t is
a wise precaution.
Mrs j. d. Ell would not use a
bust developer. In fact, / would not
worry at all but that, If you have a
child, nature will find a way to pro
vide nourishment for it. Sometimes
| heavy breasted women prove TO be
poor nurses and vice versa.
Mrs. G. c. E.-Thank you for your
kind letter. Here is one sensitive
soul who thrives on approval.

If the hair is short it may be curled up
in ringIets and worn under net to

The high side part is usually most
becoming to girls with wide, full faces
since the larger section Of the hair
may be brought down diagonally over
brow and temple to give slender ap
@pearance to the face. The girl with
a low forehead and narrow face may
wear a low side part, with the hair
brushed straight across.
When the face is too full and the
neck short the side hair may be worn
short and curled forward on each
cheek, while the back hair may be ar
ranged in a French twist or vertical
roll up the back.
A straight bang across the brow is
becoming only to rounded, childish
faces. but narrow, waved bang OF
curl may be used by any one who has
a high forehead. The ideal feminine
head is an oval, and all coiffures should
aim to preserve or create this idea
form in individual cases by f1uffing out
the hair or drawing it tight in order
to achieve graceful proportions.

Nourishing But Not Fattening.

A falIacy is a deceptive or false ap-
pearanee or an illusion. An Illusion is
a false appearance or belief which one
readily recognizes as a mistake when
the error is pointed out. A delusion is
n false belief or an apparition which
the victim retains in spite Of all rea-
konable assurances that he is mistak-
en-. ANY of us may have an illusion.
Only the insane have decisions. Our
Yallicies are erratic observations or be-
Iiefs which we harbor mainly because

which indirectly obstruct the ways Of

cuire for lists of foods which are
nourishing and strengthening yet not
3attening.
ANY such adventure in diet should
be based on fundamental physiological
facts. The first thing to consider in
the selection of foods which nourish
or strengthen the body but do not pro
duce deposits of fat, is the source of
energy or strength and the source OF
body fat.
Briefly, the food material or fueI
which yields energy is chiefly carbohy
Enthusiastically foods and the sugars
or sweets. The food material which
furnishes heat or warmth is fat. The
remaining food stuff - heterogeneous
food, protein, albuminous food-pro
vides the material which the body
needs for repair of the constant wear
and tear.
Any excess Of any of these three
kinds of food material over and above
the quota needed and used by the in
'dfvidual may be deposited in the It's
ieues in the form of fat, which thus be
comes a reserve store which the in
'dividuaI may draw upon in time OF
famine. like the camels hump and the

Spring Coifures.

The battle between the advocates of
bobbed or unbobbed hair is still with
out a decisive victory for either side,
although the advantage seems to be
with the latter. In the 1SS0's there
was a bobbed vogue that lasted for
about seven years. Since fashions re-
Eolve in cycles, it seems likely that
the present fad for short hair is due
to follow its predecessor into at least
Temporary oblivion. My advice. there

Taking Friendship Seriously.

| 6 &@ASAAeAAAP 6SAAVA"AJ'
Yes, we can take friendship too
seriously. We can establish too many
hard -@hdfast rules about the duties
of friends.
We can make their lives miserable
and our own, too, by insisting that
friendship be held up to a certain
high standard, and not permitted to
fall for the fraction of an inch.
Yet, we shouldn't ever lose sight OF
the fact that the business of being a
friend is a serious one--it's wise to
remember our obligations and duties.
Only we mustn't get too solemn
about it. We mustn't run our friends
ragged as poor little Betty does, for
| instance.
! Betty is a wide-eyed young person
with very serious mind and very
high ideals about practically every
thing in the world.
| She believes that all human rela-
tionships are on the highest plane
possibe-and that to be a real friend,
girl must do certain necessary
things. She says:
IF my friend Is Ill, I must call her
| up every day. / must go and see her
| just as often as it is humanity pos
sible.
when she's we'll enough to be
about again, 1 must remember to ask
after her health every once in a
while, just to show l take a real
! interest.
'She must do the same for me. l
shall always defend her--if there is
the slightest hint of criticism in any
thing said to me about her. / shall
quarrel with the speaker then and
| there. And I shall expect my friend
to show the same answering loyalty
| to me.
friends is growing fond of me, L shall
| Immediately drop him--take every
pains to let him know that he hasn't
chance"
She has q whole set of rules, some
even more rigid than these--and she
adheres strictly to them in her seri-
Gus. determined way.
But her friends are constantly
| making her miserable. She is broken
hearted togfind that not one of them
gives to her the devotion and loyalty
she eXpects-and Is willing to give in
her turn.
Every day she receives fresh disil-
observation-disclosures evidence of the
careless, irresponsible sort of affection
| they have for her.
For the girls today are too casual
too happy-go-lucky--to free and easy
in all their relationships to satisfy
the serious.minded maiden who be-
lieves that devoted pals should abide
by hard-and.fast rules.
Betty has deliberately let herself
in for unhappiness by expecting too
much Of the other girls. She's put
herself in line for disappointment by
| making out a list of their duties to-
ward her, and by checking up on all
those they fail to perform.
She is absurdly conscientious her
self--she can't understand others
carelessness.
1t is unwise to some to expect too
much of those nice, congenial people
we call friends. 1t is unwise TO check
up on them to carefully.
In these easy, modern days. let the
little things abide. Don't be over
sensitive about trifies. Be happy that
you have friends and don't expect too
much Of them.
