In the first production of Mrs.
Frances Hodgson Burnett's novel

Victorian stage favorite, played the
part. Critics said she was too tall.
Mrs. Burnett hastily wrote her own

and wore blond wig to effect Ced-

The plush suit was worn first by
Elsie Leslie, the first child to play
the role, at the American opening

costume was approved by the au-

Pickford's silent version of the play
in 1921.

AT THE CHILDRENS TABLE - Proper Diet Is An Important

 One of the very first precautions that you should take, therefore, Is to see that your children eat foods that form Q wholesome, balanced diet. This means the avoidance of too much rich food and sweets, and the inclusion of plenty Of rough age foods.
 Tn this connection, do not forget the whole grain cereals and whole wheat bread. Also sec that the fresh vegetable and fruit content of the child's diet is very generous. Remember that daily eliminations are absolutely essential to good health. Proper food should always give this result.
 At the first sign of Q cold do not depend on administration, but consult your family doctor or clin- ic. This may sound like over. cxaggerated solicitude. But 1t isn't. It Is just common sense. Your doctor will probably tell you to put your child on Q liquid diet, or ct least to increase his intake of liquids, especially milk. He will also tell you to put the child to bed and keep him there on 0 liquid diet until the cold breaks up.
 You will, of course, want to vary The liuuids as much as possible to keep them interesting. That is not a troublesome task, If you remenl. ber that they can be given In the form of several different bever-

dripped through into the base of the pot. Do not re-heat the coffee, and do not allow 1t to stand over- long before serving.
 For the home I should say, do not buyy too much coffee at time SO that 1t must stand around ground for Q long while before us- ing. This will dissipate it's strength. A good grade of coffee is economy in the long run, because it goes farther and is easily digested.
 I might say Q few words about the coffee you wish to use as fla voring in the many mocha recipes. You must not boil the coffee in an effort to concentrate 1t or make 1t stronger for flavoring. That will give nothing more than Q rancid liquid that will spoil your recipe. Use an extra amount of the ground coffee when brewing 1t for this purpose and always make your flavoring fresh.
 Here is a good recipe for coffee custard:
 Coffee Custard
 Put in Q saucepan eight egg yolks with an eight-ounce of sugar. Mix well and dilute with eight custard cups of boiling milk and Q good cup of concentrated black coffee. Pass through Q fine strain. CT. Fill the cups and put them in @ large pan filled with boiling water to half the height of the cups. Re- move the froth that may have risen to the surface; cover and let sir1- Iner gently for twenty minutes, or until the custard is well set. Let cool in the water. Wipe the cups and serve cold.

AnQ try to serve with ell these ilqNlo foods some interesting little gaxnHn to spruce the dish up bit.
 The topic of colds and what .t0 do to prevent them from Hnakn8 friends with little children is g ta- vorite theme of mine, and one tnes ia important and timely enough 70 warrant another talk on the sup feet.

beverage just right and always right is one of the difficulties of Nhe average cook. Yet the making Of 1t is Q very simple operation. It is the nicety and care with. which 1t is prepared which mark the dif- ference between the good and bad decoction.
 I say without hesitation that coffee of the finest quality, if care- lessly made, is not as acceptable to the palate as the well-made beverage in which Q lower grade of coffee has been used.
 If you would have perfect bev- craze my recommendation is to use Q French china pot with Q paper f1ltrator. But of course many of you will want to buy Q special uten. Sil. Then hsrken to this admoni- ton be scrupulously cleanly with your own type of coffee pot.
 Remember first of oil that cof- fee readily absorbs foreign haVors. If the pot Is wiped out wsth 6 soiiGd cloth, or if the coffee Is strained through Q flannel that is
 lot perfectly sweet, the beverage will betray 1t. If the spout of tho pot Is allowed to collect 0 film of stale coffee 1t will ruin all the fresh coffee that is put into the pot.
 Another point is this: Have the water boiling briskly when you pour 1t over the coffee, or when you place the coffee basket in the percolator pot. Do not use old cof- fee. As with tea, the results will not be right if the water is allowed to fall below the boiling point be- fore it is used. Measure out Q heating tablespoon of ground cof- fee for each cup of boiling water, ana you should add on extra spoon- ful for the pot. If made by the driis method, preferred by the chef, sec that the beverage is sent to the, table as soon as the liquid has

Kitchen Comments
By WTLDA HOYT

Success in making wafeles lies first, in not having the batter too thick; second, in using Q well- greased, not waffle iron. Except when using aluminium, when the greasing Is omitted. Avoid toe much baking powder or soda, end scyn the cakes but once. M
 If a plain peanut butter sand- wich filling seems rather "wooly" to your taste, try mixing the peanuts with liquid honey, using one part of honey to two parts peanut but- ter. Spread on buttered bread.
 As Q bas efor those fruit dressings which are so delicious when served with plain ice cream, keep on hand several of the fine fruit syrups, nos tably raspberry, strawberry and lo- ganberry. You will find the fine quality syrups retain all the flavor of the fresh fruit.
 Luncheon sets of linen doilies are appropriate for breakfast, luncheon, informal dinners served in the din- cite or sunroom, or for an inform al Sunday night supper or similar occasions.
 When 0 waitress is passing two or three small articles, such as the cream pitcher, sugar bowl, or extra pieces of silver, she should use Q small serving tray, with Q dolly on 1t to keep the articles from slip ping.
 It Is smart to "ice" fancy sand- wiches with cream cheese, when they are to be served for bridge- luncheons or suppers. Blend the cheese with little cream and whip until of Q good consistency to spread. Do this with cheese that has been left out of tho refrigerator until 1t is rather softened. Ice the sandwiches, then place them in the refrigerator to harden just before they are to Do served.
