The word bolero, like so many other words bandied about by dressmakers and merchants, has been used to designate a good many things. Of course. it had its origin_ in the short sleeveless coat worn by certain Spaniards. one of the most picturesque of the many pic- turesque fashions of old Spain. Now we apply the word pretty zen.

There seems to be some more or less direct connection between the bolero and the barrel silhouette, both of which are talked about as probable fashions for Fall. Combine these two features in one costume and you at once see that the source of inapira- tion of each must have been the | Zouave military uniform, for the| wide, full trousers of this soldjerly costume cast very nearly the same shadow as the barrel silhouette of the present day. And the bolero is of course nothing more mnor less than the Zouave jacket In the history of American mili tary costumery there was a Zouave uniform, too, but when fashion finds inspiration in the Zouave uniform it is of course from that of the French soldiers, who antedated the American uniform that bore the name. Agd the French uniform was in its turn taken from the usual masculine attire of the | Zouaves in northern Africa. In the meantime the designers are | doing all sorts of things with the| bolero idea. Sometimes they merelv | make a bolero yoke on coat or frock | to simulate the historic little coat. MODE MINIATURES light” is of paramount importance these days—likewise a | woman's hat.

Uzliness is all within Thus it really is a sin —O0ld Mother Nature Tou know that really is so. Ugliness has nothing to do with looks. unless lnoks show the spirit within. One may be ever so homely and not be ugly at all, and one may really be handsome n looks and actually be ugly. Seifish ness is one of the most common forms of ugliness. Selfish people have ugly dispositions This the way it was with the orphan Cowbird that Chippy and Mrs. Chippy. the Chipping Sparrows. were bringing up with their own children. “NOW.” THOUGHT THE UGLY OR PHAN, “I WILL GET ALL THE FOOD." n one way th A true orph: voung Cowbird wasn't for his father and mother were both alive, but in another way he was an orphan, for they had nothing whatever to do with him, and e didn't even know who they were. sally Sly the Cowbird had left an egg - nest of Mr. and Mrs. Chippy, 1 had gone off to have a good cgg had hatched, and from me this ugly orphan, for he He was so greedy that he would not have allowed the other babies in the nest to have a single | worm if he could have helped it.

It is the tree of heaven, and a more curious, tropic-looking exotic does not Brow in our midst Brought from China to Europe hun dreds of vears ago, it was trans planted by the early colonists to our shores. And. though it is now thoroughly naturalized. it has never, in a way. been assimilated into our 100 per cent American plant life. To the end of time it will look like an alien—a beautiful and splendid alies It is appropriate that its blooming time should usher in the opulent Summer. The heavy odor of its| blossoms bespeaks the troples in evitably. Rambling the woods of Analostan Island, one may come upon the ruins of a once-famous mansion, which stood upon the southern shore. Native trees have grown up through the cellar hole and common weeds obliterated the bright garden. But five tall old trees of heaven, planted no doubt by the hand of that early colonist who built the house, stiil mark the spot and proclaim to all the world that here, still. _there breathes some spirit of the Old World, amid the crowding wilderness of the New. The tree of heaven has a noble outline, much like that of the elm, with an umbrella top, but the branches droop and then gracefully curl up at the tips, after the manner of the European horsechestnut. The wood has little value, but the bark is used medicinally. There is but one drawback to the tree of heaven. The male trees (and in this species the sexes are on separate plants) have a heavy aroma which, to many persons. is unendur able. Only female trees should be planted. Th with thelr winged, maplelike fruits, are exceedingly ornamental.

He saw Mrs. Chippy flv | down into the grass with a worm, and he heard the hungry cries of the babies when they saw that worm, so he went to see what it meant of course he found the four bables unable to fly. “They must have fallen out of the nest,” said Farmer Brown’s Boy, look- | ing up. “It is such a little nest that they must have been too crowded in it. It would be of no use to put them back there, for they would only fall out again. So Farmer Brown's Boy went up to the house and got a berry basket. In it he made a nest of soft hay. Then he went back to the Old Orchard and put the four baby sparrows in the nest he had made. After that he fas. tened it up in a tree, where Chippy and Mrs. Chippy at once began to feed the babies.

There are people who think they should share the food they enjoy with the baby. They want him to taste the fruit and the cake and the delicacies they enjoy. That is dangerous.

A child born tomorrow will, in a physical sense, involve many complt catlons. and the strictest regard for regular nutrition and an abundance of outdoor air will be needed to en- able it to attain physical normalcy. This child will have a rather peevish disposition, and will. in all probabil- ity, carry through the greater part of 'its life a proneness to find fault and an acute sense of self-digsatis- faction.
