WOMA N’'S PAGE FEATURE Children’s Styles From Paris > BY ANNE R ITTENHOUSE. It is not often that the French wom- on take their children to public places. When the American mother searches for children's fashions she goes to the parks, to the exclusive play- ~8Tounds, to the dancing classes of the aner set. But this season, to the as- tonishment of French and Americans, there were some well-dressed young- Sters at the early June races trotting along with their mothers and not even benig rude to the camera man when he wanted to take their photographs. _This is a new departure, evidently. France does not intend to confine its attention to mannequins and women of the smart world. It Intends to in- troduce the juvenile element. In this 1t_has a wide field No French dressmaker hesitates to make small clothes for children, no Matter how great is the prestige. They like to Invent tiny clothes that attract attention and depart from the conventional. Heretofore, they have had no way of showing them off in public. as a European child is too carefully brought up to go shopping With its mother or to the theater with the grown-ups as our children do. If the trick of launching juvenile clothes at the races meets with success, an en- tirely new fleld of sensational ap- parel may be expected. One of the youngsters who went to the June races in a new frock and Wwho posed for our artist without a semblance of self-consciousness, is shown in the sketch today. She wears an abbreviated frock—and all French juvenile frocks are brief—made of Dink crepe de chine after the Vionnet manner, which was well known in America last autumn on grown-ups. The arrangement is one of double biased tucks run up and down on & slim skirt, their points falling be- low the hem. The bodice is negligible, it has no sleeves. it is bound at the neck. The hat is of natural straw with a hizh crown and a ruffled brim of pink crepe de chine. Of course, the infant carries a para- sol. All French infants do when they are out on parade. It adds to the Sophisticated absurdity of their brief little garments. American mothers have taken up the fashion of crepe de chine frocks for children with a certain degree of en- thusiasm. They like the soft colors and supple material. They do not mak straight slips of this fabric. They copy the French fashi f placing THIS SMALL CHILD, WHO WAS AT THE RACES IN PARIS, WORE A FASCINATING CREPE DE CHINE BANDS FALLING IN POINTS. THE PINK CREPE DE CHINE RU FETA. bodice.

I thought it would be so lovely for each of them to have his own little garden. I thought they would love to plant the seeds. an jwould watch for each little blossom, and all that. But nothing like it! They did get the seeds in, but after the first day they forgot to water the beds, and later they loathed weeding, and after the first thrill of seeing the seedlings come up they lost all in- terest in the matter. I gave them little talky garden books, and they wouldn't read them. What's the mat- ter with my children? Are they lack- ting in some way? Her partner laughed sympathetic- ally, as she shuffied idly for the next comers. “Of course mot. All children are like that” she sald. “They have al- most no capacity for sustained inter- est in anything. because they are so busy learning a hundred things that they can't settle down to one. I think the real dificulty is that they have no real object in-gardening. My next- door neighbor seems to have discov- ered how to hold her little boy's in- terest, though. He had the usual bed of quick-growing annuals, of which he promptly tired; but in some way a strawberry plant had wandered into his little inclosure, and the idea of something to eat following on after the blossom engaged his lirterest, especially after his father told him “Well, there was a strawberry. He watched it grow from a pale greenish white nubbin to a pale pink and then a bright red fruit. When it w picked it was almost a ceremony, and the berry was smothered in powdered sugar and laid on a choice blue plate at his mother’'s place. He received an order for all he could raise, and he ruthlessly pulled out the flowers and filled his entire garden space with perpetual bearing strawberries. His father gave him a little booklet on their nd he actually stuck to ft. It was really garden,’ he faid. “I think even grown-ups find that gardening is a long, patient process. ‘Waiting for results is a tax on the Interest of any gardener, young or old. Why don’'t you give your youngsters the idea of a crop of some sort, and see if they don't take to it better?

This maxim is for young and ol Be brave, but never be too bold. ~Whitefoot the Wood Mouse. The four children of Whitefoot the ‘Wood Mouse promised to do 'just as their father had told them to do. Three of them had been so frightened by thefr first sight of Hooty the Owl that they had fully learned the lesson of fear. The fourth had been fright- ened, but being a venturesome and headstrong little fellow, he had soon recovered from that fright. “I don't see any sense afraid all_the time,” maid others when Whitefoot and Mrs. Whitefoot were not about. “How ever are we going to see anything of the Great World if we have to stay right close to a hiding place all the time? Of course there must be many dangers for little folks like us, but 1 don't believe they are so bad as father makes out. I for one want to see something of the Great World.” So the first time the young Wood of being he to the Mice were left alone this headstyong little fellow slipped a from’ the others and started out to see the Great World. It happened that at the fime there was no one about for him to fear. At first he made little short runs, scampering as fast as his small legs could take him, from one hiding place to another. He was so small he could hide under a leaf. Nothing happened ‘and gradually he forgot to be afraid. He forgot to look for another hiding place before he left the one he was In. There were so many things to see that after a while he had no thought for anything else. Farther and farther from home he wandered. It was great fun to poke his_inquisitive little nose into every little hole. It was great fun to climb old stumps and to poke about under old logs. He pald no attention to where he was going. He ran this way and he ran that way. Whenever anything strange caught his atten- tion he ran over to look at it. He found good things to eat. Not a thing happened to frighten him. He was so busy seeing new things that he wasn't even lonesome. And so he wandered on and on, farther and farther from home. At last he became tired. Then he thought of home and suddenly dis- covered that he didn't know just where it w. But this didn’t fright- en him. ver mind,” said he to COULD F. HIDE UNDER A LE 1f. “Heme isn't very far away. T'll have a good rest and then I'll go back there.” So the little Mouse looked about and found an old stump with a hole in it. Inside theewood had rotted and crumbled away so that it was soft and made a very comfortable bed. The little Mouse was very pleased with his find. He was both tired and sleepy and he promptly curled him: self up for a nap. He chuckled to himself. “I wonder if they will mi me,” thought he. “I wonder if any one will come looking for me. It was all nonsense to tell us that we must be afraid all the time. I'm not afraid. Why should I be? I haven't seen a single thing to be afraid of.” So the venturesome little Mouse curled up and in no time at all was fast asleep. Meanwhile Whitefoot and Mrs. Whitefoot had missed him and were anxiously hunting for him. It didn’t enter their heads that he could have gone far away, and so they hunted everywhere they could think of near home. Of course, they did not find him. And, of course, the grew more and more worried. Th were sure that some enem have caught him. (Copyright, 192 by T. W. Burgess.) Menu for a Day. . BREAKFAST.

He had al- ready warned her that she wouldn’t like it. but what she really thought was that he had some pleasant sur- prise in store that she might think a her very much. She gave a preliminary hug at the very thought. “I'm thrilled to my toes!” she in- formed him. “You're really improv- ing! You're usually too-cross-every- and-dot-every-t for any use, but this is really nice and intrigue-like!" She waved the envelope. ‘“Just think!

She pulled forth some little squares of pasteboard—train tickets and Pullman tickets. And when she saw the printed destination she flung his_knee.

PERSONAL HEALTH SERVICE By William Brady, M. D. Noted Physician and Awshor. A Dutch Treatment. Everybody knows what courage is. The Dutch treat was an excellent innovation in some parts of the coun- try before the drought. But this talk is not a dry one. It's about enuresis. That is a little trouble which a great many children have and which causes mothers a lot of work, even when they take pains to take the little ones up at ten or thereabouts. Dr. P. Bierens de Haan assures us in ederlandsch Tijdschrift v. Ge neeskunde, Amsterdam, that the im- portan ause of this annoying habit kidney trouble.” but too deep sleep. He says the slumber of chil- dren with thi damp affliction is so profound that it is below the thres- hold for the normal rousing reflex for evacuation of the bladder. He admits that there may be some neuro- pathis factor involved in this excep- tionally heavy slumber, but he as- sures us that his experience in two large children's asylums had demon- strated that the bed wetting is cur- able by preventing the excessively sound sleep. And how do you suppose de Haan Dutch accomplished that? By a Dutch treatment, to be sure. He prescribes a nap for the child in the daytime. This sufficies in mild cases. The idea is that if the child sleeps a little in the middle of the da; say after a midday dinner, for two hours, why, he won't have to pound his ear so heavily at night. Another suggestion this Dutch doc- tor gives is that the bed wetting child should be put to bed two hours earl- ier in the evening, whether he sleeps or n0. And this is certainly a help- ful plan, as many harassed mothers have learned. The room need not be darkened until the usual sleep- ing time. In the severe cases, high humidity is a regular or in- variable feature, the child should be kept in bed all day long, in an atmos: phere of quiet and calm. The repose is often helpful in other respects. De Hann _declares that these simple methods have proved curative in practically all cases, except only ac- tual mental defectives. Attributing bed wetting to a “neuropathic” heredity is too much like blaming gran'pa for one's mis used arteries. It seems more rea- sonable and proves more practicable to ascribe the trouble to a neuro mus- cular fatigue of the urinary appa- ratus and the whole system, brought about by excessive or excessively prolonged play, by harsh and unjust- fiable repression and forced gquiet- ude in school (if the child is unfortu- tunate enough to be under the thumb of an old fogy teacher), and to un- in which the due excitement in the evening—such as nighthawking at the movies or about the street, as some sadly ne- glected children are allowed to do. Children with this dificulty should be required to follow a very rigid clockwork schedule of evacuation of the bladder at certain hours all day. regularly set times, and it is abso lutely wrong for teachers or others to require any child to obtain any- body’s permission or consent to such a thing. Teachers who abuse chil- dren under their control by insist- ing on such a thing are clearly un- fit to assume such responsibility. Unfortunately we still have a sprink- ling of such old fogies in our schools. Bed wetting is the least of the troubles such misunderstanding of childhood by poorly trained teachers causes. Lettuce Hearts, Cream Dressing. Set aside four tablespoonfuls of double cream until thick and just turning sour. Beat the yolk of one egg and one teaspoonful of sugar until very thick, and slowly add one teaspoonful of lemon juice. or light vinegar. Beat very hard and then add the cream gradually.

The writings which historians have unearthed from those days are full of nick- names. They abbreviated the name Richard, for instance, into Dick, just as we do. and into Dikke (pronounced about like Dickey). But they didn’t stop there. They changed it into Hikke, Hikkon, Dikkon and even other forms which we of today would not recognize as having any connection with who com- Richard, as indeed a native of Albania ‘would hardly recognize the connection between Richard and Dick. ‘The names Hicks, Hicey and Hickson are simply varying forms of these nick- names of Richard, which during that period of the middle ages in which family names began to be formed were gradually adopted by various familie. h’; which the name of Richard often was given.
