Some well dressed women are choosing little suits for Spring, consisting of navy blue cloth jackets and skirts of black and white check. In an interesting ensemble from France the frock is of woolen material showing fine stripes of green, black and cream, worn with a hip length Jacket of black rep. These fine, _sometimes irregular, stripes are of Moroccan inspiration and appear again and again in the new clothes for Spring. They are used to best advantage when com- hined with some plain dark color. (Copyrizht, 1 ) MENU FOR A DAY. BREAKFAST. Orange Juice. Dry Cereal with Cream. Dropped Eggs on Fish Cakes.

The North Pole has been discovered; Africa has been explored; we know all about the moon, and are trying to communicate with a supposed people on Mars nd with it all we don’t know much about ourselves. The greatest mystery about the wonderful human being is our brain “f300d morning. Hope vou are well toddy,” we greet our neighbor. What have we id? Merely a few peculiar we know what thought to send across, and our . realizes we have wished him well. He is kappy, smiles a reply and answers with another cheerful bit of gounds. This is the product of this wonder- ful brain th: ies ineased in the streng protect x the skull. How does a work? Well, the brain is made up of witions and mil- lions of little cells, each so small that it n just wout he seen by the hest milarosdope: i cell has three parts, a small round por cent plece, on one end of which there are several short branches of nerve material and on the opposite side a Jong growth of nerve material. This long growth varies in size from being too small to he seen with the naked eve to being 3 to 6 feet long. It s on like a 10- | on thiz long nerve growth that store our memory material. Chere is a fatty growth which de- velops on this long part of the cell | body every time we see or hear or {learn something new. When the time {comes to try to recall the particular {idea. something occurs to the fatty | tormation which releases it.

The old time philosophers used to say that the braln was like a great big fleld of snow andewhen we learned two | things together there was a path made hetween them just as when one has walked across a snow-covered field many times over the same path. But this was just a fanciful way of ex- plaining that two ideas which were taken into the brain at the same time are released together. According to scientists, we never really forget anything we once see or | hear. The reason that we cannot al- | ways call it to mind, however, is be- cause we do not stimulate in the right way the cells where the idea is hidden. Our brain mechanism 4s a wonderful thing and science has only begun to solve its intricaties. | | | - 149 Our Children— By Angelo Patri o “Lay Off. Mother met Pete at the door.

So I know it was good. “But you must learn to punctuate and spell- and keep your margins. ‘That is the rule of the classroom, and, if it weren't, how could you write un- leas you knew how to spell?” “Of course.

The boys hated English and were rapidly losing sight of the fact that it meant any- thing beyond the rules. Pete had to be taken out of the school and sent to one where his special gift was rec- ognized, because the teacher would not “lay off,” even when mother asked her to. (Coprright.

Willlam Tryon, now a refugee on the British ship Duchess of Gor- don, In the North River, refused to be interviewed today on yesterday's patriotic demonstration, in which his effigy was hung in the parade grounds after being carted through the princi- pal streets of the city. This demon- stration was the —answer of the patriots to the proclamation issued by Gov. Tryon on March 16 and a dressed to “the inhabitants of New vork.” This proclamation was in the hands of the efigy when the hanging took place, followed by the cutting down of the gallows and the burning of the effigy. Gov. Tryon, in his proclamation, professed hia desire to “recall those who have revolted from their alle: giance to a sense of their duty.” Tryon said further: * “I have the satisfaction to inform vou that a door is still open to such honest, but deluded people, as will avall themselves of the justice and benevolence, which the supreme Leg. islature has held out to them, of being restored to the King's grace and peace, and that proper steps have been taken for passing a commission for that purpose, under the great seal of Great Britain. Conspicuougly displayed on the ef- figy as it was carted through the streets was a label calling Tryon a professed rebel and a traitor to the dearest rights and privileges of this province, as well as to his native country. Another placard bore the in- scription: “Behold the bloody tool of a san guinary despot, who is using his ut- most efforts to enslave you! With how secure a brow and specious forms he gilds the secret crater! “Torles take care!!! The significance of the patriot dem- onstration was mnot lost upon the Tories for whose benefit it w: taged, ramer than with any expectation that Tryon would learn a lesson from it. Although they are not organized or ready for concerted action, ‘it is well known by tha committee of safety and the provincial Congress that the Tories of this city, Long Island and West chester are ready to come to Tryon's ald If a favorable opportunity offers They are sullenly watching the con struction of defenses by the Continent al officers and soldiers, but mre offer ng no oppasition. Many of them are planning to leave the city with their families, and a number have already gone. (Coprright. 1026.) MOTHERS AND THEIR CHILDREN. Exchanging Errands.

BEAUTY CHAT Dark Lashes. Ay very fair girls write and ask me how to hring out their eyes. The very blonde type can be either ex tremely delicate or merely insipid, but never striking unless there is some hit of decided color ahout the face.

You can color them a trifle permanently by rubbing them -every few dave with a little bit of castor oil, which has a decided tendency to darken the hair. You can rub a dark hrown eyebrow peneil very lightly over the eyehrows and darken them artifically for a few hours. If you brush or rub the eve. brows you will not be able to tell you have used artifical coloring. Or you can use the black cream recommended in my pamphlet, Beauty.
