Protecting Baby John from sun'-
 mer Digestive Upscts
 Baby John was two months old this week. His proud mother brought him to my office for U thorough examination, and we went over him very carefully. He really is q credit to Mrs Johnson. He's firm and rosy, and when he is awake-which isn't very often he smiles at everybody in the most delightful way. His mother de- clares that his smiles are specially for her and don't contradict her, though quite privately I'm not at all sure that two- month-old John recognizes her or any other person or object that he sees. However, he fs putting on weight steadily at inc rate of between five and six ounces q week and is already grow ing 50 fast that Mrs Johnson IS fortunate to have a plentiful supply of clothes of all sizes. left from the time when Robert and Claire were tiny.

CHILDREN ARE

CHILDREN ARE
 -9 NATURAL ACTORS
 Friday afternoon, and the chill dren were coming home from school.
 Three dirty little urchins-they were very dirty indeed, so I sup- pose they were urchins--were sight to behold.
 Over their ragged clothes hung tissue paper strips of rainbow col ors. On their tousled heads were caps of canary, pink and blue. One had something fastened to his shoulders that may have been meant for wings. The wings did not go so well with the Zulu skirt effect below his waist but I rather suspected that some one else had been punched in the eye and de- spoiled of his <finery.
 What a wise teacher they had! She had evidently taken time out from Farmer Green has been to the bin'' and all the worrisome vowel sounds, and decided to stage some kind of a show, where the children could dress up.
 Whether they were fairies, an- gels or musketeers 1t would be hard to say, but whatever they were they had been any one but themselves for a few happy min- utes.
 Children love to be somebody else. They love to play, pretend, act. borrow honors from every realm outside. their own workaday world. They instantly become birds, rabbits, gnomes, Mother Goose or the Sandman the moment you hand them feather, a pair of ears. A tall hat. or broomA
 They are not like grown-ups-. they actually become the charac- tcrs they play. That is why we say that children are naturally actors.
 They Play Alike
 It is this side of small people that I think we neglect-particu- larly with boys. Little girls do ltaye dress-up parties occasionally, but little boys don't. Mothers for the most part take it for granted they would rather be out grabbing for worms or playing ball in the lot.
 It has been discovered that we have been all wrong about boys liking one kind of play and girls another.
 Almost every kind of play we know now is Interchangeable. Girls have had dolls thrust at them. Boys skates and engines. That they eventually have preferences is due to the fact that older peo- pie have conditioned them that way. Nature makes no dividing line between them.
 And little boys do like dress up party.
 A few cents worth of tissue pa- per-a few cookies and lemonade make a first class blowout. It IS much better than shooing them of everlastingly to the movies when they begin to moon around and say they have nothing to do. There should be a reason for the char acters they are to represent. but 2 few minutes quick planning VIII solve that. Scissors and Q glue pot will do the rest. It will keep you from grieving over the depression, too. A little real fun is what we all need, the children. too.

success of a model.
 Where informal clothes are con- cerned, I must admit that the fab ric contributes a great deal to their attractiveness. It is in this category of models that you will find the most fancy fabrics, used and here too you will meet with the greatest variety.
 Tailored suits. on the other hand, have accustomed us to ex- pect a certain amount of novelty in their materials. Here the nov city is much more subtle, however, as this type of suit is usually fash. toned of mems suitings or some thing similar and all of these fab rics have reached the peak oi perfection, technically speaking. Unlimited Fantasy
 The lainages set aside for morn ing dresses and ensembles are a quite different matter. Here there Is practically no limit to the fantasy of both weave and design, contrary to the conventionally tail ored suit The recurring novelty in the cut and style of these in- formal models cannot afford to dis pense with as great degree of novelty in fabric and weave and new ideas in both are expected every season. :.
 On the other hand, have had 1t constantly thrust upon me that a novelty which is solely decora- tive always ended by provoking q certain amount of lassitude. even though 1t might be constantly re- newed. Jersey offers . very good example of my contention.
 Despite the continually renewed and almost infinite variety both or coloring and design, the sweater, for which these fantasy materials were mainly used, could not sur yive this lassitude. There are still A few sweaters in my present col lection, cut on what may now be considered classical lines, but they are few. Having realized that something new, technically speak, ing, was necessary to the survivai of this type of garment. this in. duced me to utilize tricot and crotchet weaves which, after all, are relatively new only by their modern interpretation.
 Fabric. Isn't All
 The most frequent error made by many people is that when they employ fancy fabrics, they deem this sufficient and neglect style or cut, This can but lead to mos notony. Fabric is certainly inn portant, but 1t is not everything. Tor my part, I think that a plain fabric worked in such a way as to supply q note of fantasy. combin- ing. for, example. a. plain fabric with a fancy one, is always sue cessful. They need not necessarily he of the same weave or composi- tion, but by carefully studying color effects and contrasts, the most satisfying and effective re- suits will be achieved. "

 what she called summer dysen- tery." As a matter of fact, how ever. summer dysentery Is only one of a number of digestive and intes- tinal complaints which He in walt | for the infants of careless mothers and which are apt to be aggravated during hot weather. .t These complaints are usually due to one or more of the following causes. First, and most common, unsatisfa ctory milk; that Is milk that is impure or. 50 diluted that It cannot provide the necessary nour- ishment. Mrs Johnson has de-
 cided to use certified milk for John since that will assure her both cleanliness and the correct propor- ton of cream for Johns formula The second cause is emotional
 upset on the part of the mother Mrs Johnson knows that if she al- lows herself to worry or fret, Jonn
 will suffer more than she herseir
 will, for both the quality and the
 quantity of her own milk VIII pc

 The third cause IS the papy own environment. If John Is al-
 lowed to pick up dirt from the floor, or from badly washed bot ties, impure milk. or from house flies, his stomach and tntestines are very apt to become infected, and finally if he catches cold or
 if his general resistance is low
 cred by sickness, diarrhoeal troub-

 Unless they want sick babies,
 Mrs Johnson and all other mothers
 must be sure to give the babies
 only pasteurized or certified milk
 and only water that has been
 boiled. Bottles and every utcnsil
 used in preparing the food must be
 carefully washed and scaled and
 the babies must be protected from
 flies.

 When she had gone Sue sat staring at the door. Then she stood up and opened it and bang ed it again. Hard.
 There! That's what I'd like to do to her. She isn't going to think that Jimmy is tied in Grace's back yard, and has come straying into hers.

 Then you think that his heart is doing the real stuff for this Webber woman?" Ruth asked.
 No. It's infatuation. Jimmy didn't grow up soon enough. He doesn't know it. But maybe he will really fall in love with Grace now if she plays her cards right. Only I don't think Mrs Webber is philandering. wish she were!"
