This should be made of muslin or outing flannel. Use a single piece of material, blanket size, folding it in the middle, crosswise Sew it to- gether on one end and the other side, and fasten the top in two places, a few inches apart, with hooks and eyes. Put the baby inside and fasten the bag over each shoulder. In the hottest weather a thin sheet will do for covering, and little or no cloth- ing need be worn under such a bag. This is especially handy for vacation time. (Copyright, 1923.) BY Paging Mr. Henry @. Sell. Today 1 was wondering what has become of Henry G.

At any rate, I once had a very ay chat with him, at tea, in the otel Astor. It was just after he had changed his nare from Gsell to Henry G. Sell, that being because he was variously dubbed “Gagzelle” and other humorous pronunciations of his unpronounceable name. Our talk went something like this: Mr. Henry G.

My I (nonchalantly devouring an un- offending English muffin): 1 do not wish _to know where you were born, nor the color of your eyes, nor- Mr. Sell (with dark suspicion): I thought you were to interview me.

I'd rather know what you think of Pearl White and serials; whether or not you have a sense of humor: whether you're married or single, and what you like to read. By such things as these is a man made known. Mr. Sell: Pearl White is a peach—A1 to work with, and unspoiled, abso- lutely; the best ever.

My | reading hobby is centered in Oscar ‘Wilde's “Dorian Gray,” but by way of counteracting that, I have only one silver-framed photograph in my room, and that is—my mother's. Well, as 1 have recorded on this page of my diary, this tea took place some time ago. Peari White is abroad. There has been something of a slump in serials, and Henry G.
