With improved heating equipment
the tendency may be toward warmer
or more evenly warmed houses. but
with the ever-increasing cost of coal
and other fuel and the increased
knowledge of the fact that colds are
more easily contracted in the higher
temperature--the tendency seems in
many cases to be directly in the op-
posite direction.
Then, too, there are Americans who
after a season or so abroad find or say
they find our steam.heated houses un.

something quite sni;trt about rooms
that are as cool and draughty as those

If we follow the European custom
of having rather cool houses in Winter
then we should. follow the other El-
ropean custom of having shawls,
jackets and coates specially designed
to provide extra warmth to our indoor
dress. The house suit. not unlike a
Spring suit in general appearance, is
often included in the European Winter
wardrobe. The removable jacket is
really part of the costume. but may be
taken off when by chance indoor tenn
perature makes this more comfortable.

THE DAILY
HOROSCOPE
Wednesday. December Z.

Good and evil planetary influences
contend tomorrow, according to astrol'
ogy, which finds that benehc lnflu'
ences dominate late in the afternoon
There is fairly fortunate rule for
| merchandising of all sorts, but all
ventures in buying should be delayed
Under this direction Of the stars
the judgment may be blurred, espe'
cially where borrowing of money is
concerned.
1t should be good day for dealing
with banks and with brokers, but it is
wise to be cautious in all financial
matters.
Under this sway, all purely intel.
lectual activities should benefit. Edi-
tors and writer's are to have a profita-
Bile season.
Many quarrels. political and other
wise. are foretold, for there is a rule
emphasizing egotism and ambition for
personal success.
Aviation continues under first.
rate rule, making for big advancement
in commercial fields.
Railway travel will be heavy at the
end of this month, 1t Is prophesied,
and the South will benefit as well as
the West.
Many marriages are forecast for
Washington and other world capitals
this Winter.
The moon, now affecting the ma
tivity of the Prince of Wales, may en-.
courage an early marriage.
Sudden developments in Great
Britain may affect relations with for.
eign countries and especially with the
United States, the seers foretell.
Persons whose birth date it is may
have anxiety regarding the young
folk of their families in the coming
year. They should avoid litigation.
Children born on that day probably
will be determined in nature and yet
often losers. They can easily win
success.

Your Baby and Mine
By MYRTLE MEYER ELD.ED.

Viewed with adult eyes, the baby's
diet always seems so woefully mo-
notonous. Fear that this monotony
may cause the baby to refuse his due
allotment Of food may inspire the
mother to experiment with new va
rieties which her best judgment tells
her are inadvisable. Mothers are
always wondering what kinds of
fruits they may offer children, and
while the following list limits the
ages at which these fruits are offered.
1t errs on the side of safety. Perhaps
your baby won't be i'll when given
fruits that are not suggested for his
age. but that is no excuse for advising
against them for other children. Re
conservative, sticking to small amounts
in the beginning. and you won't have
cause for regret.
Oranges are always the faithful
fruit for the baby. The juice of this,
in teaspoonful amounts, diluted with
twice as much water is begun as early
as two or three months. The juice of
the lowly tomato, canned or raw,
may be used as substitute for orange
juice. The orange should be sweet
and strained. The tomato strained and
undiluted.
For the baby of nine months one
may safely offer the cooked juice of
prunes, ripe pears, peaches and apples.
This does not mean canned pears or
peaches. but the juice which can be
pressed from a pear, peach, apple or
prune when cooked until soft in water
with very little sugar. Pineapple
and grapefruit juice may be we'll liked

child this young the giving of bananas,
while an excellent and useful fruit,
had best be given under the direction
of a physician.
The pulp Of the fruit can be given
the second year. after MASKING and
sieving. Stick to conservative amounts.
It isn't the fruit itself that may be
harmful, but the injudicious amounts
in which 1t is fed to child.
Except orange and scraped apple.
uncooked fruits can be left out of the
diet until the third or fourth year.

bEAUl1 OHAlS BY EDNA KENT FORBES

You must understand what you are
about before you start any sort of
weight reduction. I am inclined to
think the first thing you must do is
buy, or find, an absolutely reliable pair
Of scales. and weigh yourself on them
faithfully once a week. Keep a weight
chart and mark down the date and
your exact weight at the time. Moth.
ing is easier to forget or to become
confused about than your weight of
few weeks back. With chart you
have II down accurately to refer to.
Secondly make certain that the con-
ditions under which you weigh your
self are the same. A good time is an
hour after breakfast. Remember that
the gain or loss Of even a pound is
important in testing diet. Remem-
ber that everything makes differ.
ence in your weight. For instance. If
you should drink glass of water
just before getting on the scales it
will add one-half to three.quarters of
pound. That Is why you should
weigh yourself under exactly similar
conditions each week.
Evening star., 1927-12-06

The insurance table of weight and
age posted on most scales will give
you an idea what you should weigh.
You can take off anywhere from to
10 pounds. for these tables are ex-
traordinarily generous and the fashion
Of the time demands youthful slender.
ness. Or you can do it this way: Make
up your mind as to the number of
pounds you want to lose. You do not
want to lose more than two pounds of
it a week. This Is a very slow but
sane method which gives the skin
time to adjust itself over the shrink
ing flesh, and the whole system time
to adjust itself to the reduction proc
eSS.
To lose two pounds week you must
lose roughly four ounces of fat daily.
Now here is the chief thing to remem.
ber: To lose one ounce Of fat you
must eat ESQ calories of food less. To
lose four ounces you must therefore
eat 1000 calories less day. We will
consider how to do that the day after

When It gets too stiff to beat. work
