This is used to make the short gathered skirt, while ribbons of harmonizing tint- form the little lattice-work bodles. In .this frock the silk is cherry taffeta brocaded in silver, while silver ribbons interlace to form the little bodice. It. may seem to you that taffeta silk and silver ribbon are not quite appropriate for the very little girl. You may cling tenaciously to the old- time idea that such a little girl should ‘wear only materials that can be sent to the laundry. But there are occa sions that cry’ for something a little more festive. We are beginning to realize what you might call the decorative value of our children. Even if we do not permit their meddling in the social life of “their elders, we allow them to appear at all sorts' of day-time parties. A wedding is hardly com plete nowadays without a tiny flower girl or train bearer. At garden parties children are to be seen in picturesque surroundings and quaint frocks in the garden or or the lawn. They are taught when quite young to he]D hand tea things and other afternoon refreshments; not to take a precocious part in the conversation of their rhothers and fathers, but to conform to the good old adage that children . should be seen and mot {heard.

Mother has been the head of her house for 25.0r-30 years, and she has no idea whatever of abdicating or even di- viding her guthority. It is only after a girl gets married and has a home of her own and takes her finger out.of mother's pie that the two ever meet on a plane of mutual understanding and get to be really intimate {riénds. Of course, matters are better when a girl has grown up under her moth er's eve and when they have the habit of daily association. There may still be between them, eyen then. the invisible wall that keeps them apart and that is built out of the difference in age, the difference in taste, the restraint that always exists between those who command obedience and those who must obey. But they are at'least accustomed to each other’s society and are fa miliar with -each other’s little peculiarities. They know the same people, do the same things and are interested in the same gossip. But the girl who is sent away from home to school in her early teens and who does not come home to live until she is grown Teturns a stranger. The impressionable vears of her life have been spent away from her mother. Her tastes, her habits, her points of view have been formed by her teachers and her schoolmates. Mer School mistresses are, in reality, nearer to her than her own mother. Very oftén there is tragedy in this. For the girl has idealized the mother she was away from and thought of her only as the angel mother of poetry and-fiction. And the mother has dreamed of the perfect companionship she would find in her daughter, whom she imagined as the reincarnation of her: self at 20. And then when the two human women meet there is the shock of discovering that meither is what the other expected. and that they haven't a thought or an idea in common. often not even the same religion or the same God. And what adds to-the difficulty of the situation is that both get their backs up. Mother resents what she considers daughter's patronizing attitude, and daughter resents being ruled by an old fogy like mother, and so they make no real effor:i to become acquainted or t8 adjust themselves to each other. It isn't easy for a girl to make a comrade of her mother. but it can be done. And believe me, girls, there is no other human being in the world that it will pay you o well to get acquainted with Meet mother. And meet her more than half ‘way DOROTHY DI To Set Colors.
