WOMAN 'S PAGE Many Fashion Changes in Jewelry Y MARY MARSHALL. There are stml women here and there who hold to the sentiment that once having invested or tactfully in- duced some purse-holding relative to Invest in a “handsome plece of jew- #iry,” thera 1s nothing more to think OF PLATINUM AND IN FORM OF BIRD CAG THE BIRDS ARE OF DIAMOND: AND THERE 1S A PLATINUM ‘HAIN.

Save occasionally to add other “hand- scme pieces” to the collection. But that i€ not the smart attitude to take regarding jewelry at all. Jewelry as we now regard it is uch subject to changes in fashion | as hats or frocks. It should notf merely be a certified money invested. Of still prize the jewelr sic value, but they have it reset and rearranged frequently; they wear it with discretion and often in combir nation with jewelry of far lower value. A single pair of good pearl earrings certainly should not be made to suit all occasions, though there are times when they may be made to appear very smart. The French woman sets the pace for women of other countries in new ways of wearing jewelry. It is not sufficient to wear a string of beads always with the weight of the chain hanging down at the front. It may be made into a choker at the front with the ends hauging down at back. receipt for course, women of high intrin- neck at one side and going under the arm at the other. The sketch shows how this may be done with a charming chain of aquamaiine and pearls. A frock of blue to match or almost - any sof% pastel tone would ake” an ornament of this sort to good advantage. This new necklace has been dubbed a “bandoleer”—the name applied to a caftridge belt worn under one shoulder and over the other. A leading French actress has set the fashion for the large brooch worn at the front point of the decol- letage. But usually the ornamental bar or brooch is worn at one side al- most ab high as the shoulder. A lit- tle choker of black jet and red crys- tals is shown in the sketch worn with a pin to match—placed at one side near the shoulder. (Copyrignt.) What Tomorrow Means to You BY MARY BLAKE. Aquarius. Tomorrow's planetary aspects, the early morning, are good; toward noon, undergo a decided improve- ment; and gradually become excel- lent.

In the first place, he had to rest. Then, too, he didn't know where Old| Man 'Covote was. Old Man Coyote| might be waiting for him to come out. At first Jumper's heart went pit- [ ~pat at the mere thought of | so close to great big Buster It was rather frightening to pat, pit- being Bear. PETER!" HERE DO YOU BEEN?" CRIED JUMPER. THINK I'VE one so timid as Jumper the Hare. For that matter, it would have been rather frightening to almost any one. But little by little Jumper's heart stopped its thumping. After awhile Lo was no longer afrald. You see, Buster Bear hadn't moved. He was sound asleep in that strange, deep sleep such as only he and Johnny Chuckc and a few others ever know— the sleep that lasts all Winter. At first Jumper crouched as far om Buster Bear as he could. But as his fear grew less his curlosity grow greater. He didn't know of any one who had ever seen Buster Bear in his Winter sleep. It would be something to boast about. So after awhile Jumper stole a little nearer. Then he went nearer still. Buster Bear didn't move. He was as still as i he were dead. He was lying on a. comfortable bed of small branches and leaves, which he had taken in there in the Fall. To Jumper he didn’t seem to be breathing. Of course he was, but he was breathing very, very slowly. Accidentally Jumper touched one of Buster's big paws. You should have seen him jump. Of course, I mean Jumper. He was frightened half to death. But Buster Bear didn’t move, It was quite elear that he didn’t know he had been touched.

He gradually began to understand | that he couldnit waken Buster if he tried. Such 2 queer feeling as Jumper the Hare had. Here was the biggest, strongest of all the people of the Green Forest, the one most réspected, the one out of whose way everybody kept, and he, the most timid of all the Dpeople of the Green Forest, had noth- ing to fear. It certainly a queer feellng. It was hard to belleve that Buster Bear was alive. In fact, after awhile Jumper began to wonder if Buster was alive. He couldn't have been more quiet had he been dead. Jumper spent the rest of that night in Buster Bear's bedroom. When he went out the next morning he was thoroughly rested and he was brim- ming over with excitement. He just ached to tell his friends how he had spent the night with Buster Bear. He knew they wouldn't belleve it. Of course not. But just the same he was 80 excited that he simply must tell some one. And so he hurried to the Green Forest looking for some one to whom he could tell the wonderful news. As luck would have it, the first person he met was Peter Rabbit. “Oh, Peter!” cried Jumper. “Where do you think I've been? Where do you think I've spent the night?* “I haven't the least idea,” Peter. “In Buster Bear's bedroom!” cried Jumper. “What do you think of that?" “I simply don’t believe it,” replied Peter, frankly.

[c]o[nIs]en]T]e[D] ¢ lo[o N a[X]E] EH Our Children—By Angelo Patri The Spoiled Child. ‘What is to be done with the spolled child? Of course, the clever answer is not to spoil him and then you won't have a spoiled child; that one should begin with the child the day he is born and keep after him until’ he is marrfed and after that, if you would not have the difficulty of cor- recting him. But it is not as easy as that Homes do not coms in neat packages, standardized and guaranteed to work smoothly for 25 years, with the privi- lege of returning and adjustment for the next 25. Life is not like that and 1t in a good thing it is not. Children are unfinished products when we get them, and all sorts of allowances have to be made, all sorts of emer- gencies have to be met, and many, many adjustments made as we g0 along. The child is ill and for months and months must be waited on and the rules go by the board. This one has a queer disposition and balks at every regulation of dlet and conduct right from the start. Another has a sick mother who is not able to take care of him properly, while another is born into a family of adults each of whom has his say as to what shall be done for him. Some parents think children were made to play with and some of them think they were in- tended for a disciplinary scourge upon their parents. There are many spolled_children and for each there is a different reason. But what Is to be done about {t? Here they are mow, and nobody can get along with them. In school they are failing and in the home they are a constant source of Irritation and waste. For each the program must difrer, according to the child, his habits and the cause of his trouble. But for one and all of them the best thing that can happen is to have them taken out of the environment that is spoiling them. Strangers make the best téachers for spoiled children. No matter how hard you try- to overcome your practice with the spolled child, thers are too many forces against you. The old habits, the old associations, are like an in- trenched army and you will have to sit down before it for a long siege. Better cut it short and call in the strangers. If it is a baby who has formed wrong habits of health and hygiene and control, it s a good thing to call in a trained nurse whom you can trust and turn the child over to her for adjustment. Keep away from the nursery_until the nurse asks you to come. Your presence there will only undo her work before then. In the case of an older child, it it is possible to send him or her to a relative who has the right point of view for him, do that, and if a good priviate school is what is needed, send him there. And when you have made up your mind that this is the thify to do, stick it out and don’t run out on the next train to bring him home when he writes how he is suffering and how hard-hearted the folks are. Know your: folks fitst and then go ahead. (Copyright, 1025.) M¢. Patri will give personal attention to Inquirtes from parents ot school tetchers development of children.

We are all famillar with the Man- sard roof, which is constructed with a break in the steep sides of the ordi- nary A-shaped roof so that each side has two planes, which makes the rooms underneath habitable and elimi- nates the useless garret found under the other style of roof. Some of us have used the name Mansard root without knowing the origin of the tern. The Mansard roof is named after Nicholas Frencols Mansart, a famous French architect, who lived from 1598 to 1666. At the helght of his influence Mansart designed most of the im- portant public buildings erected at the time in Paris, as well as the fa- mous chateau of Malson-sur-Seine for Louls XIV. His work Is noted for its classical refinement and purity of de- tail. And one detall of his origina- tion which has familiarized his name these many years to people Who have no interest in the history of architec- ture is the now popular, though mis- spelled, Mansard. roof!

In England any man living near a pool or pond would be likely to have the reference of it attached to his name.
