WOMAN'S PAGE Shorter Skirts in Latest Fashions BY MARY MARSHALL, When very short skirts came Into fashion before—a few years ago— they got a lot of free publicity. When country folk went tc the city they Jooked out as usual for the tall build- fngs—but usually with greater inter- est for the short skirts. They wouldn't have believed it if they hadn’t seen them. But that state of affairs remain but a short time. NEW DEMI- JENNY.

He wondered if father d mother tried to cut the trap, but, of His teeth, girls who wear short skirts become neither criminal nor perverted. We read with perfect composure that in Paris some of the skirts are as much as 15 or 16 inches off the floor. Interestingly enough it seems to be the skirt with a flare that calls for this degree of abbreviation, while the straight scant skirt can be worn a trifle longer In the sketch is shown a with the new, very short skirt. As far as good style in this country goes, 10 inches from the ground will doubtless be short enough for some weeks to come. There are and al- ways will be doubtless women ‘Who cling faithfully to the longer skirt, and you may feel that this is a wise idea for the woman whose ankles are not well shaped. As a matter of fact, the woman with ankles little thicker than she would like to have them is apt to be of large, heavy proportions, and the skirt that is longer than other women's is very apt to give her the very heaviness that she had hoped to uvofd. When you see a woman who is not really old wearing a decidedly long skirt, it is the most natural thing in the world to assume that she follows this mode to hide clumsy ankles. * (Copyright, 1925.) model Favorite Recipes of Prominent Women BY EDNA M.

Born with a literary gift that found expression in verse from the age of 6 years, Bernie Babcock did not make serfous attempts at writing' until after her marriage, at 18.

Being possessed of a full measure of clean grit, she did it. Another temperance story, be- cause of its thrill and pathos, had such wide circulation that it has been credited with aiding the cause of prohibition in several states. For a number of years Mrs. Bab- cock served on a daily paper as tele- graph editor, book editor, soclety editor, special news reporter and edi- torial writer. She is also founder and editor of the Arkansas Sketch Book. With all of this regular work, she has, up to date, more than a dozen books to her credit, several of which have attained international reputa- tion and foreign publication.

Very good planetary aspects pre- vail until a short time befors noon, favoring all new lines of endeavor requiring activity of thought and exe- cution. Thereafter, and until dusk, a period ensues in which there may be misunderstanding, confusion or negative physical conditions. From then on the vibrations stimulate ag- gression, both constructive and de- structive, according to the use made of the mind. It will be found that any well directed and carefully delib- erated plans, if launched during this time, will fructify, and all sooial en- tertainment or family diversion will be crowned with success. A child born today will cause, on physical grounds, a lot of worry and anxiety during the infantile period. Under proper treatment, however, this child will recuperate just as quickly as it falls sick, and given regular nu- trition and as much out-of-door air as possible, it will develop into a healthy and upstanding youngwter. Characteristically, it will be positive, abrupt and sometimes precipitous in its actions. It will do things fm- pulsively. It should be encouraged to.marry wisely, early in life, g0 that a suitable mate may act as a balance wheel. Tt will be capable of a great, strong love. If today is your birthday you should restrain vour inclination to be exacting and dominating, and you should not give away to anger. You think a great deal of the opinions of others, ‘and always try to make a good impression. 1If not already mar- ried, you should do so as early as possible. Unless the mate you choose, or have already chosen, is one of sufficlent character to stimulate your ambition and keep you always at your best, your domestic life will be, or is, unhappy. You, although bossy, do not possess the qualifications of a leader, and the desire without the ability makes you resort to domineering—a very poor substitute for leadership. You are altogether, both by speech and action; too much the slave of conven- tionalities and, always afrald of of- fending the susceptiblilities of others, whose good opinion you desire, you are afraid to be natural, and your friends often criticize you for your apparent Insincerity. The world to- day has very little use for a modern “Vicar of Bray” and always has a wholesome admiration for the one who has honest, deep convictions and is not afrald to volce them. Well known persons born on this date are: James B. Angell, edu- cator; Willlam Henry Bishop, author; Charles H. Davis, artist; Louise Imo- gen Guiney, author; Mary E.

T was sold up on the old theory that if you told a woman the truth about such a fall from grace she would have hysterics all over the place, and that you would never hear the last of how wicked it was to flirt with the Demon Chance. So when I got home about 3 g. m. I told her the usual story about extra work at the office, and I began pinching the housekeeping money to pay back my gam- bling debt. 1, T am not a gifted and convincing liar, and my story didn't hold to- gether very well, and I got hollow-eyed and nervous under the strain of leading the double life. Finally, my wife told me that she knew something was worrying me and that I'd better come clean. I did, thankful enough to get it off of my chest, and she just laughed over my being silly enough to be afraid of her and set about helping me square myself. “Honestly, that was the happlest moment of my life, and T knelt down by her and put my head in her lap, and blubbered, I was o thankful to know that I was married to a woman with whom I could be honest, and sincere, and frank, and whom I wouldn’t have to decelve. “Virtually all men feel the same way. It takes a pretty low-down cur to find any pleasure in taking advantage of a woman's trust in him to deceive ber. On the contrary, he loathes and despises himself for lying to her, and he would a million times rather tell her the truth if she would let him, but she won’t. She simply won't stand for it. . e . §THE average man can’t telephone his wife that he is going to stay down- town and have dinner with a freend, and spend the evening with some congenial masculine spirits without her ralsing ructions about it. But she is perfectly satisfled iIf he makes her believe that he s going to spend the evening tolling over his desk, so he lics to her about taking stock, or striking a trial balance, or a big order. “If he were to tell his wife that his secretary was a very unusually intelligent and attractive young woman; or that he had met an old woman friend and taken her to lunch, and that they were talking over old times; or that he regarded Mrs. A as a great beauty and Mrs. B. as fascinating, why, wifie would throw jealous fits, so he discreetly keeps silent about all other women. “And you can't blame the man. He would much prefer the straight road to the crooked path. He'd far rather be aboveboard in dealing with his wife. But nobody wants to live in & state of perpetual strife. Nobody wants to be dragged through harrowing scenes. And so when a man finds out that the price of peace at home is a lie, he pays it. “The old statement that ‘what a wife doesn’t know won't hurt her’ is one of the most mischievous sophistries in the world. It fouls with the slime of deceit a relationship which should be one of pure honor. It shakes a woman's faith in her husband, because sooner or later the doubledealer is always found out. And it kills a man’'s love for his wife because she has forced him into doing a contemptible thing at which his soul revolts. “Therefore, if 1 were giving a bride advice 1 should say to her: “If you want to keep your husband a lover to the end, don't force him to lie to you. s e $QAME way about women,” said a woman. “It is our husbands who make liars of us. I know it is the general impression that every woman is a lle‘k‘:“m‘le daughter of Ananias and Sapphira, and that the truth is not n her. ‘Nothing is farther from the case. Most of us are Truthful Janes, and we would just love to indulge ourselves in the luxury of strict veracity if we could afford {t. But we can’t. Not one man in a million Is big enough to stand for the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth from his wife. “Do you suppose that a woman enjoys having to flatter and cajole her husband into giving her the things that are her right? Do you suppose the wives of stingy men feel no humiliation in having to get money from their husbands in ways that make them feel like sneak thieves? Don’t you know that women loathe having to watch their step in everything they do and say, and having to hide things from their husbands to keep from having scenes? “Don’t you know that a woman would regard a husband with whom she could talk things over frankly and honestly, a husband to whom she needn’t lie about the price of her hat, nor deceive as to how long mother was going to stay when she came on a visit, as the greatest blessing that Heaven could bestow upon her? But there isn't such an animal. ““As a girl I used to be shocked at the way my mother worked my father, and T determined that when I married I would never tell tarrididdles to my husband; but, alas, I soon found that I had either to join the lying wives or the divorcees, and, of course, I took the easiest way. “We all make liars of each other because we penalize the truth. Which is a pity, because, after all, honesty is the best policy in matrimony, as it is elsewhere.” DOROTHY DIX. (Copyright, 19%5.) The Daily Cross-Word Puzzle ((Copyright.)

The Steerage. ‘With the advent of the new white- collar third class, steamship compa- nies are trying to get rid of the word “steerage,” which, they say, doesn't mean anything anyway, being a relic of the days when immigrants actually traveled aft, whereas today the steer- age is forward on the vessel. But the steerage itself has a his- tory. It started first class — for the early ships which carried immigrants to promised lands had only one class, And, paradoxically, today’s steerage is a haven of luxury compared to its first ancestor, which was literally “first class.” Today's steerage passengers get well cooked food, sanitary and com- fortable quarters with individual beds and crisp linens, so clean and com- fortable, indeed, that all Sum ships were chartering their ste accommodations to groups of dents and teachers who wanted to go abroad on slim pocketbooks. What a showing against this by the “first class,” or original steerage, of the Mayflower and even the old sail- ing ships of the forties and fiftles, when the immigrants took their own bedding and food aboard, and the ship provided a great kettle, into which each family dropped its net of pota- toes, holding them by a string until they were boiled. In his “American Notes,” Charles Dickens describes a trip to America, and tells how the milk for the chil- dren had to be taken aboard in the form of a cow. That was in the forties of the last century. The steer- age of today has decidedly better fa- cllities. (Copyright.) MOTHERS AND THEIR CHILDREN, A Historical Game.

Basioally the same rules have gov- erned the development of French family names as of English—that s to say, some of them were in the first instances descriptive of trades or oc- oupations, others of the localities from which the bearers came, others of personal characteristics, and still others were descriptive through ref- erence to the father's given name. All of the French family names listed in this article come from & group of given names which have been derived, as was more common in France than in England, from the name of a feast day or season of fes- tival, namely, Pascal, or Easter.

If you would be lithe In step, easy in body and well appearing i@ foot- wear, see that your hosiery fits cor- rectly. There is a tendency wlith persons who have occasional discomfort with their feet to blame the shoes they wear. Perhaps it s the stockings that are at fault. When there is trouble, unless there is something actually the matter with the feet, badly fitting shoes or stockings are the cause. It {s important to dis- cover which, put the blame whers it belongs, and then remedy it. Let us consider the importance of hosiery in_footease. The necessity of having correctly fitting stockings is not emphasizea enough from the viewpoint of com fort. When it comes to the appear- ance of trim fitting hosiery few un- derestimate it. It is possible, how- ever, to have the footwear look good, but bs extremely uncomfortable. It is only when good looks and com- fort are united that hosiery is right. Hosiery That is Short. Stockings that are too short in the feet will cramp the toes and make the wearers miserable. Changing the stockings is seldom considered for relief, but changing shoes is. When the hosiery is to biame, relief will not coms with taking off the shoes. That is not sufficient Too Long. Tt is quits possible to have hosiery too long instead of too short in the feet. They fold over the toes just a trifie. Creases from that are annoy- ing. Wriggling the foot may alter the position of the fold, but this meraly shifts the discomfort to an- other place. Creases in stockings are a decided cause for pain. In the olden times walking on jagged sur- faces was a form of torture. To walk with folds and creases in stock- ngs is a modified form of torture that {s sometimes heedlessly self-im- posed through lack of. appreciation of the cause of the trouble. Full Fashioned. The sensitiveness of some persons feet makes full-fashioned stockings uncomfortable because of the seam under the soles. Such cases are rare, fortunately, but if they exist semi- fashioned stockings should be worn. These may be found that fit almost, i not indeed quite, as well about the ankles as the full-fashioned models. Very sheer, soft silk stock- ings may perhaps be worn with the underseam when heavier silk, lisle or cotton could not be. Loose Fit. When buying stockings it is well to select loose-fitting ones, that will be large enough for the toes to have ample room. Such a size will last longer than snug-fitting hosiery. The latter will be likely to prove too tight when washed and therefors cause suffering. See that the ankles are shapely, especially If you have Quarantined Child. No, the board of health did not quarantine James. His mother did. She thought that if he played with other children her care of him would go for nothing. He would catch all thelr illnesses, for instance. Children had such dreadful things—measles and chickenpox. So the best thing to do was to keep him by himself, inside his own fence. When he became of school age mother was still afraid of childhood's disorders, 80 she thought it better for him to be taught at home. A teacher came to the house and Jamie learned from her how to count and read and fold and draw patterns in little squares. He took exercise in the park. He walked beside the teacher and sometimes she tossed a ball to him; not often, because it got his hands dirty and his mother was very par- ticular about his hands. She thought that the dirt might make him {1l By and by James asked if he could not go on the street and play with the other boys, but his mother gently explained that that would not do, because those boys sald things that were not nice for little boys to hear and did things that were very rough and dangerous and that they might come from homes where there was sickness and all that. So James said, “Oh,” and stood long at the win- dow, watching the lads play one-old- cat. That was when he was 9. When he was 12 years old his father sald: “What's the matter with that boy? He doesn’t seem to do any- thing that I did when I was a boy. Doesn’t he ever play or climb a tres or break something? What's the mat- ter with him?' You see his father, like many fathers, had been too busy eamning the money to keep James quarantined to know how he pros. pered under it. Now he began to miss something In this boy who was stretching his legs and arms beyond what his clothes called for. “Better send him to a school for boys,” sald he. “He needs to assoclate with other fellows. He's been too long by himselt.” So his mother picked out a good boys' school and sent him there to live with the other fellows. And he couldn't do ft. He couldn’t do a thing they did. He couldn’t play, he couldn’t work, he couldn’t even eat with them. At night he cried himself to sleep and rose again in the morning to drag himselt through another dreary day. He was afraid to try the first easy steps and the teachers were troubled to know what to do for him. It was plain that he needed to help himself, but it was plain, too, that he couldn’t help him- self. Then Brian Buroo came along. Brian helped himself since his first bottle and enjoyed the whole affair immensely. Frisking about the yard he punched one playfully, tickeled an- other, snatched the cap off a tall boy’s head and clapped it wrong end to on a short fat one's and laughed heartily at the result. Then he grab- bed James and rubbed his ears might- {ly. Ever have your ears rubbed? James suddenly became a whirling body of arms and legs and he and Brian mopped the yard from end to end “Thank goodness,” sighed the head- master, discreetly turning his back. “Dear father,” wrote James that slender ankles. 1 ings are shaped at the will crease and e baggy when wor have straight ankles, der @nkle-cut in ho: in this part for the the ankles ven fold or However, if avoid the ecs stock- they ORTABLE HOSIE FOR FOOTE. will strain The stitche start.
