Your Baby and Mine
Too Much Attention

30 many letters from readers say, II
have been on the point Of writing you
many times, and then I picked UP the
paper and saw the answer to my ques-
ton" Each looks upon this as pecul-
iarly uncanny. But 1t Is no more 90
than my common experience, which is
to have half q dozen letters with iden-
tical questions pop out Of one mail.
Sometimes the words are so similar that
one is amazed. One shouldn't be, for
the answer to these experiences Is that
children everywhere are very much
alike. Reared in similar environments,
they react similarly and similar prob
lens result.
Today's flock of letters Is from moth
ers whose babies can't bear them out

has had the sole care Of her baby for
many months. She may be the type u

ably fuss II he sees a stranger" With
such unselflsh service the natural re-
suit is the following problem:

The best course is to get this baby
used to having other people do for him
whenever possible, and thus give him
taste Of society other than his mothers.
Sometimes this isn't possible, but he has

persistently sounds very much as If he

The idea Of an active baby, who IS
playing about a play pen or crib and
has toys and blocks and rattles and
balls at his command, and who can
move about freely, isn't quite IN the pic
ture you have drawn.
Do two things: Give baby more OPP
portunity for activity which can be en-
ioyed quite without any help or atten-
ton from you Continue to ignore his
loud screams If they are just selfish,
demanding ones. The finest lesson any
small child learns is that he can be
happy without the constant attention
of some adult

Washington History
By DONALD A. CRAIG.

March ~, 1s5S.-Mathew B. Brady's
Daguerreotype Gallery, in Browns
Hotel black on Pennsylvania avenue. is
an art establishment equal to anything
of the kind In the country In all its ap-
pointmentS. Its proprietor had q SIM
liar gallery here 10 or 40 years ago and
he was careful to preserve fine pictures
Of all the public men Of the times, who
figured in our national affairs.
He has sedulously pursued the same
policy ever since. The consequence is
that he has perhaps the largest collec-
ton Of striking portraits of persons
known in our public history in the last
IS years that Is anywhere in existence.
Mr.. Brady's gallery in this city is
constantly attracting visitors from
among the residents of Washington, and
persons who come here to "see the
sights" The Evening Star in an article
today calls special attention to the i'm
portanee Of Mr.. Brady'S collection and
the attractiveness of his establishment.
In New York Mr.. Brady has q gal
lery that ranks flrst among the hum
dreds there, and his pictures were re-
garded as the best exhibited at the
grand exhibition Of all nations that
was held In Paris q year or so ago.
"As works of mechanical genius and
artistic flniSh," says The Star, mo
finer daguerreotyping was ever seen
than the pictures of Brady, in all the
various styles in which his operatives
take them and his artists finish them,
His present establishment here has
been fitted UP at greater cost than any
other we have seen this side Of New
York, and embraces all the various inn
provements necessary in producing the
first-class daguerreotypes, photographs,
ETC., of the times"
William Thompson, editor and pro-
prietor of the Washington News, an
nounceS in his newspaper today that
this long-established journal will be
discontinued because Of his impaired
health and his decision to enter upon
another position.
ITO those who are still indebted TO
u.s." says Mr.. Thompson, I'VE make our
final appeal that they viii pay at our
ONCE, No. 482 Ninth street, the amount
justly due US for advertising, subscrip-
tions, etc. It Is our intention to wind
up our pecuniary affairs in salts
factory manner to all who have claims
against us on account Of this paper, and
also to make return of moneys paid In
advance beyond the present time"

Fashions of Today
Black, White and Green.
By MARIE sHALMAR

Black, black. black--we hear 50
much about the smartneSs Of black,
and so long as Paris is the cradle OF
fashion inspiration we shall always
have the importance OF black borne in
upon US. Black with white is smart,
but there are many women who ought
never to attempt this combination. 1t
demands such minute attention to de-
tails In order not to look merely strik-
1ng-and nothing more.
Wonders have been done with green
within the past few years, so that from
ranking with one of the dimcult colors
it is now thought of as a color that
almost any one can wear. BY varying
the proportion of blue or yellow to
its makeup and by softening it with q
gray or beige, tones of green have been
produced that meet the requirements OF
us all.
The so-called linen shades of all the
colors have been emphasized for resort
wear this Winter, and these softened
or muted shades of rose, green, blue
yellow and violet have been achieved In
eilks. woods and cottons.

SMOKER CARD FOR APRIL. F
 IS COMPLETE
Preliminary Bouts Are An nounced- -Semi-Final
 Draws Interest

Final announcement of the com pleted card for the American Le- zion Smoker one week from to- morrow night, April 12, in the A. B. Hall, was made today with the signing up of the two preliminary bouts.
 Dan White, 151 pounder, who re- ceived some lessons from Rod Hulse in the last smoker, has been match ed with Bud Carlin, who tips the scales at 150 pounds. Carlin is unknown to ring fans here and consequently this bout will be some- what of a dark horse affair.
 In the other prelim, Joe Brady, 167 pounds, will face Jimmy Moore, 161 pounds. Brady has been seen occasionally in the ring but Moore is another newcomer to local fistic fans.
 Regardless of these two scraps, which the matchmakers claim are

 The chorus work, especially in teresting because of the unique camery angles from which it is shot, is beautifully performed by groups of Gamby-Hale and Allen K Foster girls. A strong support ing cast includes Katherine Fran cis, Margaret Dumont, Cyril Ring, Basil Ruysdael and Sylvan Lee.

Douglas Fairbanks was as excited as child with a new toy during his first day on the sound stage when he made the talking prologue of his new United Artists Picture, "The Iron Mask" coming soon to the Palace.

 With the representatives of Vest ern Electric, who installed the sound equipment, the executives of the United Artists Corporation and his own company as an audience, Doug dedicated the new sound stage with his soliloquy of invi- tation to join him in the romantic spirit of his new picture. After each fshot. the company moved into the sound projection room, where Doug's voice, with it's musi- cal accompaniment, was immediate ly played back.

THREE BRITISH BOATS
 ENTER DETROIT RACES

CONES, Isle of Wight, April A. Betty Carstairs has ranged herself with Sir Thomas Lipton in the matter of determination to win sports trophy from the United States.
 Everybody knows how Sir Thomas has spent $2,5OO,000 trying to win the America Cup with his Sham rock yachts.
 Miss Carstairs has already spent thousands of pounds in trying to win the Harmsworth trophy with her motorboats, and now she has purchased her own shipyard here and intends to keep building motor boats until she produces winner.
 Details of her newest boat are now available. It is a vessel 28 feet long and will have two super charged Napier engines of the Schneider Trophy type, each cap able of developing 1900 horsepower. The boat is expected to do 100 miles an hour or over.
 Miss Carstairs, who is half Amer ican and who inherited one of the Standard Oil fortunes, will race the boat at Detroit in September.
 She will also take her last years entry, Miss Estelle W, to the United States. Sir Henry Segrave will again enter his Miss England II, so there will be three British boats contending for the trophy

He could plainly see scores of rod shaped bodies, which looked Ike bacilli and which absorbed dye.
 Annoyed by the presence Of the supposed impurities. Dr. Lpman subjected the agar to a steam bath at 266 degrees Fahrenheit for about fourteen hours, in order to remove inc unwanted organisms. At the end of that period, upon making another test, the rod-shaped oooleS were found present. Becoming suspicious of their ori- gin. he made thorough inVestiga- tion and became convinced that the rods were crystalizations of the agar, stimulating in every detail one of the simplest forms of life.
