WOMAN’S PAGE." Bathing Suits BY MARY SUMMER bathing suit has come to be an essential in every child’s summer ward- Tobe whether or not the child £ets within a hundred miles of a sea or lake bathing beach. There are al- ways clear streams or pools enough for a child wade in, and even a garden fountain and a few # feet of rubber garden hose seem to provide sufficient excuse for a child nowadays to sport a bathing suit One busy mother of several young children has solved the dress prob- lem for her children, to her own sat- isfaction at least, by dr children in bathing suits and all day when they are summer home in the country very few afternoon occasions they Are put into regulation wash suits and underclothes. For the rest a one- plece bathing suit is put on fresh every morning. Laundering them co sists simply of washing them and hanging them up in the sun to dry There is very little difference be- tween some of the little folks' bath- ing suits seen in this country now- and little “combinations” of sort that most all little French vs wear for play all summer. They are sleeveless and very short-legged, often of wool jersey, when they are quite frequentiy worn without any underthings at_all The sketch shows a bit of bath- ing suit of red jersey cloth trim- med with white worstéd embroidery You may—or may nol—wish to hav. Your own bathing costume inconspic uous, but a real purpose is served when the .child’s bathing suit is bright and distinctive. For the nurse or mother who must keep her exe o children on the beach, to see that they have not gone tio far out or are not wading in too deep water. there is advantage certainiy in hav- ing a child clad in a bathing suit sufficiently distinctive and bright enough to be seen quickly and dis tinetly. ‘This summer there ems some sort of decorative note to day their For a at to be on al- e | & her| for Children MARSHALL. | CHILD'S BATHING SUIT OF JERSEY EMBROIDERED. all the otherwise plain jersey If you wish to be economical | you might get one of the plain jer- ey suits and embellish it with em- | broidered animals of some sort.

Table cloth is used, you | know. quite a bit to decorate even ladult’ bathing suits most suits Our Childreny—By Angelo Patri Making Candy. Children and candy, one and in- scparable, joy evermore. There's something wrong with the child who doesn’t want candy. Either he in he has just had more than his share, so much more that even he, or his abused stomach, recognizes it. Candy is food and it ought to be eaten as food is eaten, at the right time and under the right cifcumstance I am not so sure about making the children wait until meal time and then giving them candy when the have had a full meal There is dan ger of making trouble for a per- fectly good meal. Better make al- lowances for the candy as dessert if you think the after meal time best But from what | see of the children and their sweets, they like best to have a bit of candy between meal times and unless the nibble becomes a full fledged meal, it seems to do no harm. Ted has had breakfast at S works at lessons until 10:30, when he has a recess. His mother has given him three lemon drops—one for him- self and two to give away or all three for himself if he feels that way Most children like to share their candy at recess. 1t is very evident that the children demand food at this time. but it is very sure that they must not have a regular meal which they gobble with- out tasting, and set to work again A bit of fruit and a bit of good candy Seem to be about right Ted goes to work for another hour or so and then goes home to lunch- is is con, where he eats a good meal and walks deliberately back to school. He necds no candy now and should have none. He is carrving all the food he an_properly digest When he gets home after 3 he will want something to cat again! He gets bread and jam and a glas milk. If he gets candy he gets no jam. He £oes out to play until supper time. when he eats another good meal. 1f there is candy about the house the growing bovs and girls will want a picce in the evening and then gins the nibbling that does all the harm. Ted will take another and an- other until somebody takes the box away and then he protests loudiy. One of the best ways that mothers have discovered to cure this evening nibbling is to let the children make their own candy. You know how you feel about eating much of the pre serves you put up_yourself? Some- thing of the same feeling is carried over to the girls and boys when they make their own candy. They will eat it. but they won't be so likely to stuff themselves with it Besides reducing the amount of candy nibbling, the fun of making the candy is a great help. It is interest- ing and very instructive. After a while they know that the dishes the use have to be washed and replaced. and the stove cleaned and the Kitchen, left in good order. That's a good les- son. Then. too. =kill in candy-making is not to be despised. Best of all, there grows out of the making a_certain point of view to- ward candy that lessens the craving for it, and puts it more in place as a pleasant food. Try letting the candy nibbler make his own candy. PERSONAL HEALTH SERVICE ‘BY WILLIAM Creosote Inhalations in Bronchitis. Creosote vapor inhalations were in general use in the treatment of lung tuberculosis a few years ago. At present creosote or some derivative of creosote is given internally in some cases of tuberculosis, and the inhala- jons are more commonly emploved nowadays in the treatment of chfonic bronchitis, particularly Lronchiectasis | (dilation of bronchi) and bronchorrhea (excessive mucous flow from bronc hi) When there is noticeable fetor or dis- agreeable odor in such cases .xhc « sote inhalations will usually over- come it. . Creosote is a mixture of phenols, chiefly guaiacol and cresol, obtained from the distillation of wood tar Heechwood creosote is usually pre- ferred for medicinal uses. From the character of the constituents it is ob- vious that creosote One of the constituents, cresol, is the essential part of some of the most useful disinfectant solutions. Creo- =ote is poisonous, it must also be re- membered, nearl as poisonous as carbolic acid is. ¥ ) The use of creosote inhalations in the class of bronchitis cases referred to is properly ealled creosote vapor bath, for it amounts to a bath, and like ‘all other baths except plain air bath it is not to be taken too lightly or without good and sufficient reason. The absorption of a slight excess of creosote is likely to irritate the kid- neys, through which it is eliminated. A small room should be cleared of furniture except a stool or wooden chair and a plain table, a deal table, whatever that may be. The bronchitic should wear a suit of overalls or a| surgical gown to protect his clothing. | protected with well ftting goggles. The nostrils should be plugged with cotton. A woman should protect her halr with a bath- ing cap, Pour a tablespoonful of ~reosote into a metal vessel and set it on a bracket or stand over an al- cohol lamp or bunsen burner. The creosote vapor rises in dense fumes Which soon fill the room. The game ia to see how long you can stand it The vapor makes you cough violently and probably you will expectorate pro- fusely—that's part of the game we're playing, you understand.

This is cer- tainly not a pleasant for that matter, what bath, except a nice air bath, is pleasant? But it is usually followed by considerable relief, both in the breathing and in the cough and expectoration. Ten minutes is a long bath, at first. As you get accustomed to it you should Atick it out for fifteen to thirty min- ltes, every alternate day, even an hour if possible.

The quantity of expectoration beccmes greatly diminished. Keep it up for a month or two, and then rest off for a few months. Creosote may be inhaled in the steam or vapor from boiling water, plading a teaspoonful or less in a quart of boiling water in pitcher or inhaler and carefully protecting the eyes and nostrils as for the creosote vapor bath. A simple apparatus known as a croup kettle is useful for this purpose Still a_simpler, if not as effective, way to inhale creosote is from a per- forated zine inhaler, a loose packing of cotton in one end being sprinkled with a few drops of the creosote. Creosote inhalations are for chronic cases only and would probably aggra- vate acute bronchitis. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS, Increase of Stature. I am writing you for information or advice as to growing tall in height. | Is there anything as yet discovered to | stunt the growth, or any book subdject to that? If so, kindly tell me. I am thirteen years old, five feet four inches in height and underweight— | (Miss. S. R.) e othing is known which increase, diminish or prevent growth.

The seeds | in berries make them unsuitable for children under three. Usually by the age of four vears a child may take | raw fruits: better give only cooked | fruits up to that age. | Bow-Legged Little Boy. | 1 have a little boy twenty mont [0ld who is bow-legged and foss in. | What can I do to straighten his legs |and make him walk right? I have | been rubbing his legs and feet on the inside from heel to toe. but I see no change.—(Mrs. M. E. G.) -Answer—It may not be too late even now to gderive some benefit from correction the child's diet. In children under five the application of suitable splints which are worn for a year or more will often straighten bowlegs, but this, as well as the diet, is ‘a matter which requires your physician’s attention. Massage or rubbing is of no avail; voluntarv exercise, play in the open air and sunshine, helps to correct the trouble. Pepper Dressing. Over crisp lettuce leaves serve a French dressing with the addition of chopped pimentos and green peppers. The proportions are one tablespoon- ful of each to one pint of French dressing. The same amount of chop- ped green onions may be added if liked, and_ the red and green combi- nation will attract the eye as well as the palate. Tomato and Crab Flake Salad. Flake one-half pound of crab meat and mix one and one half cups of chopped celery moistened with may- onnaise. Scald six medium-sized to- matoes and peel and chill them. Scoop out the centers carefully with a spoon and sprinkle the insides of the tomatoes with a little salt. Fill with the crab mixture.

The sound wan- | ders through the house and out across the lawn, with the carrying power of a distant church bell—an inviting call rather than a warning one, which the old hand bell used to have. When a house party is so scattered that the maid's quietly spoken an- nouncement, “Dinner is served,” would | not reach all ears. the Chinese gong is a charming way of calling the members of the family and their guests to the dining table. While the hanging series of brass bells, each with a different chime, may rematn in the hall within doors, it is an ex- cellent scheme in summer to have a portable gong, which may be lifted out upon the veranda. I recently spent a week end at a suburban home, where just such an outdoor dinner gong was used. A pedestal of wrought iron, painted Chinese red, stood in a corner of the hall. At the top was an iron bracket, which held a beautiful carved Chinese plaque of brass, so swung that it boomed pleasantly when struck with the little mallet. which hung at the side of the pedestal, an orange tassel | fiving from its handle. The whole | standard was so light that it could be lifted to a window or out on the south porch, overlooking the tennis court, or around to the terrace, where the sound would reach back to the garage The standard for this gong had been designed by tue man of the house and was executed v a local foundry. The brass plaque itself was a choice one, sent to the family from the orient; but similar gongs may be secured from shops handling oriental articles. While the standard is not absolutely necessary and the gong sounds as well if hanging clear of the wall in any spot, it has been found that the free-hanging Rong swings around in the wind and shows the undecorated back as frequently as the front. By fixing the gong in a stand- ard which holds it in place, it may stand always with its handsome side outward. “JUST HATS” BY VYVYAN. _ Velvet and Bangkok.

AT T PR DOROTHY DIX’S LETTER BOX A Plea for the Little Newsboys—When “Seven- teen” Married “Thirty-Four” — Helping the Widower Choose a Wife. EAR MISS DIX: Won't you put something In the paper about the little boys who deliver the papers to private residences? Won't you tell the people how these little fellows have to go to their houses seven times a week, and how little they make on each customer? My little brother has a route. and sometimes he doesn’t make enough money to pay for the papers, because the people will not pay thetr bills. Sometimes he has to go three and four times to a house to collect his money. At Eastertime he wanted to give my mother a plant with the money he made, but most of the places he went they told him they did not have the change or they were tco busy. and did not have time to stop and get the money, or they had company, or something, and to let the bill go for another week., They don't mean not to pay in the end, but they don’t realize that sometimes these few cents mean so much to the people at home, and there won't be any bread for supper if Johnny can't collect his paper bill I know because I am a little -paper boy's LITTLE SISTER JENNY Answer: 1 am glad to put your letter in the paper, Jenny, and I hope that it will touch the hearts and consciences and the pocketbooks of a lot of people who don't mean to be unkind, but who are carriess about paving little bills, because they have never known from personal expericrce that a few cents may be the margin between a full stomach or an empty one, be- tween a place to lay your head and being put out on the strect.

So long as vour husband is good and kind and generous to you, you have no right to di- vorce him, and so the only thing you can do in honor is to try to make yourself con‘ented with your lot. After all. it is not such a bad one, and you can do much to help your- self to become reconciled if you will just quit thinking about the fun you a missing in being married and tied down to an old husband, and center your thoughts on how lucky you ale to have a good home and a husband ‘who is able to provide for v And be just to your husband.

I have five children. from fourteen to three vears of age. I need a companion, and my children need a mother. There s an unmarricd woman of about forty years of age, and a widow with six children, either one of whom I think I can marr: Which one should T choose? H Answer: The unmarried one. To marry a widow with six ehildren and introduce them into your home where you have already five children would be suicidal folly. It would turn vour home into an earthly purgatory, for no two sets of children could possibly get along together in peace, and no mother could be % just stepmother. She would favor her own children at every turn But look well into the character of the Woman you put over vour obildren. Don't marry any woman who Is nervous, delicate in health, nr Who has a high temper. Suck a one is constitutionally incapable of mak- ing a gond stepmother. Pick out an easy-goin@. good-natured. common- sense woman, who has a sense of humor and a philosophical temperament. DODOTRY DIX. (Copyright, 1924.)

They rather counsel delibera- tion and prudence, although they very distinctly favor any concentrated and painstaking effort along well tried lines. They predicate optimism, but care must be exercised to avoid mental mirages. A child born today will be subject to minor infirmities in its infancy, but, with proper care and diligence, these will all be successfully overcome. Its disposition, although affectionate, will rather incline to selfishness and self-will. Efforts can- not be begun at too early an age to counteract these tendencies; aithough it will fight tenaciously to have its own way, and although “giving in” to it will prove the path of least resistance the struggle must not be abandoned until its self-will has been conquered. It must also be taught by example and precept the blessings- of sacrifice and the bene- fits of unselfishness. If today is vour birthday vou havé not, up to the present, allowed yourself a fair opportunity of self-expression. The many good traits of character you pos- sess and the natural charm of vour disposition nave never been displayed to age, because either your environ- s not congenial or vour occupation does not awaken your enthusiasm. These conditions have also marred your success, as you have come to the conclusion that nothing you attempt will ever prosper. One wWho feels certain that success is unattainable is seldom mistaken. The world centers in the individual; every man and woman is the hub of his or her own universe. The most pitiable object is the person who constantly fights his or her job. Tt is crucifixion of soul and boedy to drudge—to do work in which you are not interested. “The wise ne'er sit and wait their plight, but cheerily seek how to reduce their harms.” - Successful people born on this date are: David Dale Owen, geologist : Henry Ward Beecher, clergyman; Rebecca Harding Davis, author, a contributor to the newspaper and magazines; Stuyve- sant Fish, banker and railroad officer; De Lancey Nicoll, lawyer. The Guide Post By Henry and Tertias Van Dyke The Unconsciousness of Virtue. Why callest thou me good*—Mark 10:18. This word of Jesus by no means indicates his consciousness of sin in Himself. Nowhere do we find any trace of such a consciousness. But it does indicate the uncon- scious simplicity with which He wore His virtue. His own goodness was never a cloak of smugness about Him. Evil shrank naturally from His presence, but the sinner was at hame with Him. ; The only person who felt restless in His presence were the self-right- eous. To them He was a continual wear- iness, a tantalizing reminder of their hypocrisy. 1t only the “good people” would learn that lesson, what a difference it would make. I can never forget the cry of a man wrestling with a terrible temp- tation who said to me: “In heaven's name call oft Mr. So-and-so: he's killing me with his self-satisfied goodness.” True virtue never parades itself Self-conceiousness is notygood for all things. No man wishes to hang out a sign: “Come and see my wife. She's the humblest woman in the world. I'm proud of her.” Above all, if she herself is a good woman, she would not consent to being made a gazing stock of adver- tised virtues. Virtue may be its own reward; but pot if you confer the prize on yourself. —_—e - A refrigeration plant big enough for a whole city of 200,000 people is maintained by a manufacturer of mo- tion-picture films, which require con- stant conditions of temperature and moisture. and multi- tude of beautiful women Gouraud's Oriental Cream was = ; Gouraup's | ORIENTAL CREAM FEATURES.
