Craze Dangers

Instead she listens to the
older female relative or the
neighbor, who seems to take an
almost ghoulish satisfaction in
assuring her that the matters
of which she complains are
natural and annot be
avoided.
There's even silly old say
ing that a sick pregnancy
means a fortunate termination
to it. Nothing could be more
untrue. And nothing can be
more certain than that the aver
age woman, who gives a compe-
tent physician a chance to exer-
else all his skill in her behalf,
is not only guarded against
such grave dangers as toXemia
(Which may lead to conVul-
Sions) miscarriage, or the birth
of a syphyltic baby (she may
not even know she is infected)
but is spared many, if not all
of the disagreeable accompani-
ments supposed to be insepa-
rable from her state.
Take the simple condition of
nausea or so-called morning
sickness. Often it seems attribu-
table to suggestion more than
anything else; older women
get together and tell a young
mother-to-be how unpleasant it
is and she begins to feel it..

and of course there are the or
candies, dotted swiss frocks,
laces, nets, embroidered mate
rails, and so on, ad infinitum.
We show two S the most
charming frocks of the garden
party variety on this page that
I've ever had the pleasure of
photographing. They're grand
in the colors that are shown,
and equally good in others.
New Violet Tones
The brunette on the left is all
the lovelier for a lavender
pique, trimmed in wood violet
and a deeper purple velvet. The
dress is on beautifully fitted
princess lines with belt of the
material in the back only. The
trim buttons up the front are
covered with the pique, and lead
to an equally trim collar, with a
huge bow of the tWo-color vel
vet. The sleeves are short and
puffed. With it she wears a leg
horn hat, graced by bunch of
pansies in shades of purple.
Her hostess, on the right,
wears a red dotted Swiss frock,
trimmed in ricrac braid, in
white, to match the dots. The
dress is flared from the hips in
the new manner, with low decol-
letage, so that it may be worn
for evening, too. When it Is
worn for less formal occasions,
the jacket with peplum and big
pulled sleeves is donned. The
big pique collar is on the dress.

-Four Assets

Be hard-boiled in a nice way.
Be reasonably feminine.
Be efficient, without being
annoying about it.
Be natural looking.
The ideal business woman,
she maintains, is not always
thinking of herself as a woman
and getting her feelings hurt.
She does not take her business
affairs as a personal matter.
But, continues this pretty
and distinguished looking d.
rector of advertising women,
the successful business woman
should not dress mannishly,
and leave charm and gracious
ness out of her business rela-
tionship." A startling makeup
is strictly taboo, and spectacu-
lar clothes also are on the out

stuff the turnip cups with the

If it is possible to get turnip

of broiled bacon, salt and pep
per, and used as a bed for

Emma D. Partridge, director
of the Advertising Women of
New York, was chairman of a
tribute dinner to twenty-five
career women, ranging from a
florist to Ethel Barrymore,
when she handed out the advice
about being hard-boiled.
AS every woman knows" it's
easier for a girl who is success
full in business to marry well
and happily, than it is for the
tepidly interested damsel who
holds her job only unit, she has
rounded up a proposal. The lat
ter is likely to be as half
hearted a wife and mother as
she was a business woman. Miss
Partridge gave four rules:

dings this spring, and the good
materials begin with organdie,
go on through the laces, nets,
novelties, to pique, which is the
newest, the most sophisticated.
It's even possible for the bride
to wear a cotton gown, and she
can work out gorgeous color
schemes for her attendants.
For Late Afternoon
Garden parties are further
opportunities to wear lovely cot

Must Find Time

To persuade the pregnant
mother to pay an early visit to
the physician of her choice is
not always easy. And after that
visit it is even more difficult, in
many instances, to induce her
to cooperate in the strict medi-
cal supervision which is always
advisable, and often necessary,
if she and her coming child are
to fare as they should.
Some mothers, as is not un-
natural, are inclined to indo-
lence in the months before the
baby arrives. Many others-I
have seen their type so often
in my own country practice that
I can assure them of all my
sympathy-are like Martha in
the Bible, numbered with much
serving"
They have a house to keep
and a family to feed and serve,
with little or no assistance. They
grudge what seems to them the
unnecessary time and bother of
visiting the doctor at least every
month, during the early part of
their pregnancy, and perhaps as
often as every week during the
last two months.
often these prospective
mothers feel pretty we'll - but
symptoms which should be
watched for and corrected do
not always make the patient
uncomfortable. Even discom-
forts such as nausea, headaches,
backaches, undue depression
may not persuade a woman to
take these troubles to her doc
tor and ask his help.

HELLO
Dear Mrs. Beeckman:

Dear Mrs. Beeckman:
."I would like to know which
is right. should the one who
enters say "hellO," or should
the person who is in the room
say it first?
"Thank you. B. M"
Undoubtedly they would greet
each other simultaneously
there wouldn't be any point in
waiting on ceremony. But if the
person first in the room Is the
hostess or host, she or he might
give the greeting first.

Every woman is fascinated by

she has the nerve to wear it or
not! And while the woman
without initiative sits on the
sidelines and watches other
women take the laurels. she
ardently wishes she, too, could
be different"
In the summer months, some
how, women take more delight
in the novelties of style than
they do in winter. Perhaps it
is because they have more lei

"fussy" these may seem to the
nonscientific mind!
To make motherhood not
more fearful and anxious, but
more serious and responsible
in the conduct of its great
business, is an excellent pro-
gram for Mothers Day-and
the other 1854 days in the year.

by the unmarried girl-mother
who, for obvious reasons, does
not discuss her condition with
feminine friends. But even
when nausea occurs, medical
advice can mitigate it greatly
and often cure it.

If any house has but one room
Wherein I may not go,

DiStrusted, thrust aside;
So in that house or in that town

If any life keeps hidden cares
