Not since there had besn a little Mrs
Impy had he been away as long. He
had been exploring; he had been look

going to be very many beechnuts. Now.
Impy was hurrying home with the good
news. From a fence post he looked
over to where the entrance to his home
was hidden. He thought he might see
little Mrs. Impy somewhere about. Al
most at once he saw something moving.
He got only a glimpse of a small per-
son, and he thought, of course, that 1t
was little Mrs. Impy.

NezO Styles
BY FRANCES PAGET
copyright. 1890. by Style Sourcesl

NEW YORK, Dec. &c. = Long
skirts, and full ones beside entail
obligations. They are responsible
for the petticoats' return.
For one thing a year or two ago,
the girl who wore a petticoat or
slip beneath a fall dress was called
old-fashioned, and smart young
things condescended to wear them
only under sheer summer gar
ments.
Today the slip and petticoat
are reported the two liveliest items
in the underwear department.
Women are truly going in for all
the frills and furbelows of the
naughty nineties and from present
indications the taffeta petticoat bids
fair to rival the popularity it en-
joyed in the good old days"
This movement is of course in
accord with others the demure
Empress Eugene neckline is indi-
cative of the mode if not the mood
of today.
There are ruffled skirt sashes,
ringlets even and a score of other
"pretties'' of q generation given to
sentinentality expresses in fash
ions now daubed romantic"
Into such a group Strolls the new
pajama, a new costume type
adroitly bridging the little matter
of a century, for it seems to be
with the 1880 period that fashion
is most concerned.

Above are the type of costumes
that we're seen this Christmas at
Palm Beach! No one can go
south without ample provision for
the hours spent on the beach.
Pictured, are some of the newest
outfits for swimming or summing.
The wardrobe with one bathing
and one beach outfit is as paSSe as
the Victorian era of one dress
for every day and one for Sun
day! Seasoned resort-visitorS now
take along as many as six or
seven pajama costumes and near
ly as many bathing suits.
Materials for southern wear
this year vary from the humble
calico used in beach pajamas, to
gorgeous fabrics in evening gowns.
White Completes with bright COL
ors for first place in popularity.
One of the shrewdest fashion
prophets is backing yellow against
all comerS. In other quarters the
talk is mostly of blue in ali tones
and qualities, especially costumes
combining two and three shades
of blue. Golden green is men
toned. Gray is, new develop
ment, combined with pink, with
blue or with yellow.
When the beach is deserted for
tennis or golf, linens in white or
pastels will step into the picture,
or pique, figured and striped cot
tons. These will be- accompanied
by Jackets of the same or light
wool.

kindergarten Lacks Support;
Expense Is Poor Argument

local directors themselves can not
act.
1t is difficult enough to keep UP
with the expense of innovation:
for the older children already in
school, they argue, without assum-
ing the burden of the pre-School
child as we'll, at least without pop
ular support.
And so the years pass on, ano
with the exception of a compare
lively few cases, the pre-schooI
child we still have with us, both
literally and f1guratively. The
kindergarten, one of the most
fordeful influences in a child's life
continues to be regarded by the
laity as merely a sublimated play
room, stigmatized by its enemies
as place for lazy mothers to parl
their children, and even credited
by its friends too often as a mere
convenience and time-saver.
Naturally enough, not all friends
of the kindergarten are able to send
their little folk.
Several Barriers Raised
1t frequently happens that moth
ers can not find time to take thei1
children themselves, and it is out
of the question to send them alone
Occasionally, as in case of cpl
denies, they consider it unwise to
run the risk of exposure.
Weather is another barrier. These
and similar problems affect the
attendance of the kindergarten
school. AS a matter of fact, aside
from what we might call the
psychological side of the situation
they are physical factors working
against it.
But there is no question that
the greatest handicap the kinder
garten has is the lethargy of the
public in general and a rather
prejudiced apathy it is, much toe
often.
Prepares Child for School
What the kindergarten does is
to prepare. From the fourth to
the sixth year in life is unquestion-
ably the most plastic formulative
period of the entire span.
Unless a mother has knowledge
of the particular forces at work, how
to bring out the best and discourage
the worst in a child's growing char
acter at this time, he should have
someone who can take a hand at
the helm and help to guide the
small craft into safe waters.
1t isn't matter of discipline; it
goes far deeper than that. Organ
lied plays is calculated. Every part
of it has a reason.
Some develops thought; some de-
velops coordination of mind and
hand; others secure a habit, such as
sticking to task until it is finished: ::
still others cultivate generosity,
initiative, tremendous effort.
Another thing-kindergarten Of
fers contact with other children
under expert supervision, an ex-
cellent thing in itself.

A CERTAIN eminent English

A CERTAIN eminent English
L n man believes it would be a
good thing to drown all the ugly
women in the world.
That's quite agreeable, provided
ths along with us they drown all
the handsome men. This would
give a perfect set-up and assure
our sex all the face cards in the
game of life.
No more delightful arrangement
could be imagined than a society
made up entirely of beautiful
women and less beautiful men.
II might be a little tough on
the latter, poor dears, after they
got over falling in love, because
it would mean that they must
slave and slave while the beauties
just loafed around and looked
charming and accepted the gifts
poured into their laps by all the
competing males.
For there's no denying that
most of the work and practically
all the waiting on men is done
by the second-raters at beauty
contests. They are nearly all
humble and eager to please and
grateful for any little crumbs of
affection that might be tossed
their way.
MOT all beautiful women, of
IN course, but large share of
them, are concerned only with
their good looks. This is as it
should be. Beauty should be
enshrined in all its guises and
certainly the beauty of woman
is something precious enough to
be guarded and adored.
But when you imagine a world
made up entirely of lovely ladies,
you can see that if the men got
any ham and eggs they just
naturally would have to fry their
own. You can't ask a raviShingly
gorgeous creature with a perfect
complexion to spend much time
III the kitchen.
Like all dreams, this probably
would not work out so well in
reality. True, we wouldn't have
all those homely women'S faces
cluttering up the landscape, but
after a man had coped with the
beauties and their whims for a
number of years, I imagine he
would be relieved at the sight of
the plain and serviceable variety
once more.

different kinds of meat This soup
is then cleared, favored and served
with reverence.
We have, however. so degraded
the word that any clear soup,
whether 'consummate" or not, now
poses as a consomme.
One Meat in BOuillOn
Bouillon also is a clear soup. but
one meat only is used in its making.
Although beef is commonly chosen,
other meats often are used. Some
times vegetables are used to give
a predominating flavor, as in to-
mato houillon, but the soup always
is clear and unthickened
Bisque is a French word and
means a rich, rather thick soup of
fish, usually shellfish. Game birds,
too, may De used in biSque.
The cream of tomato soup called
mock bisque is an imitation of a
lobster bisque that has been red
dened by the pounded coral of the
lobster.
A chowder is properly a stew
rather than a soup. It is commonly
made of clans, although any kind
of fish and some vegetables can be
used. It's origin is rather interest,"
ing.
Chowder Origin Interesting
1t is said to have been made first
by a party of French voyagers,
shipwrecked on one of our eastern
coasts. They saved from the wreck
lot of potatoes, some onions, a
little bacon, some tins of sea biscuit
and a single big pot called in
French a "chaudiere" They dug
for clans and, put them in the pot
with potatoes, onions and sliced up
bacon.
when these were cooked tender,
they added the sea biscuit to soften
it and ate the whole combination
with such relish that they con-
tinued to make the dish according to,
the impromptu recipe.
They gave it the same "chaudiere"
from the original big pot. We have
contracted chaudiere to chowder.
Puree is a soup that is nearly as
thick as porridge. 1t is served
correctly in cups or bowls rather
than soup plates.
A cream soup is just what its
name signifies and should be of the
consistency of cream. 1t has a
foundation of thin white sauce.
Other ingredients are added in
varying proportion.
Any kind Of vegetable, from
asparagus to squash, can be added
to the white sauce in a $3.50 pro-
portion OF less. Oysters and other
fish occasionally are used to make
a less rich soup than a bisque.
