Qualities i'm the Autumn Wardrobe
By LYDIA LIE BARON WALKER.

The question to be decided is what
sort of wardrobe win suit the neceSSi-
ties Of life in the rounds OF social
whirl, Of business, of professional Ca
reer, of giobe-trotting, OF ordinary
home life and activities, etc. Each per-
son has some specific needs ana these
must be met or the wardrobe will be
inadequate.
Every woman knows at some time or
another the feeling Of despair that
comes when she goes to her closet TO
select dress that will do" and knows
she does not own Just the right thing
for the special occasion. Many . time
1t 10 that she has no frock that is plain
enough for q handsome gown iriappro-
priately worn Is as out of place as o
simple dress at an elaborate function.
To be overdresSed indicates an i1suffl-
Gent wardrobe, not necessarily poor
purse, though 1t sometimes does, but a
wardrobe that cannot meet emergen-
cieS.
In the business world a certain type
of costume, more or less definitely pre-
scribed has been resorted to by Arms
partly because so many employees had
so little idea of how to dress or what
sort of clothes we're appropriate. How
ever outside of business there is not the
same restriction. The woman has to de-
eide for herself. Stores do help in their
suggestions as seen, for instance, in
housedresses, enveloping kitchen aprons
that are so adequate that no frock
needs to be worn beneath, etc. These
are something on the order Of business
garbs, for they pertain to the business
Of running a house.
In this generation number Of dresses
are considered necessary whereas IN the
days of our grandmothers one or two
best dresses" relieved the woman OF
perplexities. Now there must be after
noon dresses, evening gowns, sport
clothes, etc. All these and more COM
bine the wardrobe of the woman who Is
in social life.
The woman who leads a quiet life
with occasional 'theaters, teas and eye
ming functions does well to choose
frocks that are adaptable to various oc-
casions. An afternoon dress OF GER
tain type can be worn appropriately
to evening affairs that are not spe-
cifically full dress occasions. A sport
dress OF o certain type can be worn for
informal afternoon affairs or fer for
NAL morning occasions. morning
dress mot a housedress) Of o certain
type, is appropriate for afternoons at
home, even when friend comes for tea,
or when she goes to another'S house tor
tea without other guests.
The homemaker needs to be guided
by good Judgment in the choice OF
dresses bought ready to wear, or those
she makes. Each should suit such abb
solute requirements as she can foresee
will have to be met.

Your Baby and Mine
BIZ MYRTLE MEYER EI;DRED.
Experiments in Child Rearing.

Mrs. 3. 3. M. writes: IT have been
reading your articles for a long time
and have often wanted to write you
of my experiences. First, j want to
tell you what think may be the
cause of night terrors. They may be
caused by visiting unusual places and
hearing terrifying tales. Although
children remember these stories, which
cause them to have bad dreams.
II always avoid discussion of a wor-
Yisome nature in the presence Of the
children. I noticed my children were
always restless at night after they had
been away from home. After I OBJ
served this I made an effort to get
them home so they would have an
hour or two in their usual surround
ings before bedtime. Then they were
ready to go to bed. They are of school
age now and are never out later than
8 o'clock.
Before they were of school age
used to let them play game called
Go fishing with picture cards which
made. There were four of each alike
in a suit and these had on them pic
lures of common objects like balls, or
milk bottles, or fruits and so on, and
under each printed the name. After
they had played with these cards for
six weeks ] made new ones with only
the name and not the picture and they
recognized it at sight and the game
went on as usual. They all read with
out trouble and 1t was no nerve strain,
as 1t was just game.
II have read everything I can find
on the subject of children and so far
have been successful with them. They
are sometimes naughty at home, but I
have the first time for them to emhar-
rass me In public. And they are all
boys, tool"
Answer-Your observation about
children being upset and fatigued and
naughty CASUALTY after q day away
from home, is an accurate one. Too
many happy days end up with spank
ing for the tired child, because the
mother fails to take into account that
mischief and fatigue usually 20 hand
finland. And excitement and fatigue
cause restless nights.
You are right, too. in attaching night
terrors to frightening stories told to
children either IS stories or facts which
adults accept without thought of their
effect on children. But this is only
one cause. Enlarged adenoids, gland
ular deficiencies, anema and nervous
ness may all be responsible for night
terrors in the young child long before
he is old enough to be affected by
stories.
Your reading game was a good one.
This is practically the method used in
schools today In teaching reading, the
whole word being shown on cards and
at the same time shown In the story
and with pictures to help identify 1t.

Thomas Carlyle called Count Alessan-
dro Cagliostro the King of Liars, and
thought him an even greater prevarica-
tor than Baron Munchausen.
Munchausen, he said, was only "a
liar from the teeth onwards," but
Cagliostro lied sin thought, word and
act, and, so to speak, lived wholly In an
element of lying: that is, Munchausen
lied for fun, Cagliostro to sgain vast
material successes.
Cagliostro, living from 1743 to 1895,
was one of the celebrated men of his
day, and figure so mysterious, so
bizarre, that in his prime he was re-
garded with peculiar awe in every
country of Europe, not merely by the
common horde but by those whose ad-
vantages In life should have taught
them better.
BY clever lying and intriguing he sue
ceeded in having himself credited with
more than human powers. He was even
feared, for he spread abroad the i'm
preston that he was the head of an
Invisible new system which penetrated
all countries and allied all natiolalities.
Cagliostro began life merely as Joseph
Balsamo, son of Pietro Balsalno, shop
keeper of Palermo.
Even as a little child he spoke the
truth only when 1t was to his advan-
tage. g.
care of the apothecary. Thus he gained
some knowledge of medicine and chem
istry and laid the foundation for his
future career.
He did not care for convent life, and
soon fed from it to become the asso-
ciate of all the swindlers and gamblers
of Palermo. He learned to counterfeit
handwriting, to tell fortunes and deal
| in magic.
Egvpt. Arabia, Persia, Rhodes and
Malta. In Rhodes he took lessons in
alchemy from Althotas, a Greek. Hav-
ing heard that the grand master of the
Knights of Malta was interested In
alchemy, he presented himself to that
individual as the Count Alessandro
Cagliostro and completely took him in,
The commander introduced him to the
great houses of Naples and Rome.
Balsan1o now began to rise. He mar
ried the beautiful but. unprincipled
Lorenza Feliciana, and, clubbing her the
Countess Seraphina, used her to entrap
r:ch gentlemen, whom he swindled OF
enormous sums. Using his knowledge
of chemistry, he devised love philters,
eliyirs of youth, mixtures that would
make ugly women beautiful, and other
decoctions, which he sold at high prices.
He was particularly successful because
he was adored by women of high rank.
In 1785, when the scandal of the
Queens necklace shook France, Caeli-
ostro was mentioned as one of the con-
"Put me In the Bastille," he coolly
demanded. Il desire public vindica-

] forgeries which implicated Marie An
toirette? It is not really known. For
some reason the case against him was

appearing crowded, and the pair of
candelabra with books between make
suficient decoration for the top. A
bowl of flowers might be placed In the
center instead of the books, If preferred:
The glass curtains are Of silk and
wool easement cloth. and the over
draperies are Of printed linen with a
sage-green ground (matching the floor
covering). The draperies are hung
from beneath q wooden cornice board
painted green to match, and there is
a conventional design which harmonizes
with that In the draperies.
The table Is of oak, the candelabra
bronze and the book ends of ivory.
Another grouping Of furniture which
is pleasing for a bay is medium sized
table with lamp, on each side OF the
table being placed an easy chair.
