WOMA N’S PAGE. Fashion for Monograms Revived 3Y MARY MAKRSHALL. PARIS. Helen Wills revived the fashion for monograms when she returned from Ellr(;pe recently wearing a charming course a scarf of that sort took time to complete and cost much more than an ordinary evening scarf, but it made a charming present. It showed special thought on the part of the glver, In France and to some extent in America cutwork or embroidered monograms have been seen on smart bathing suits this Summer. Some- times they are on the upper portion and sometimes surprise the beholder by appearing on the very abbreviated portion that constitutes the trunk. Monogram hat ornaments in rhine- stones or silver remain in favor. American girls in France are wearing bright-colored woolen berets of the sort that French school children wear, but to give them distinction and add- ed value they wear a neat silver monogram directly in the front or on one side. The sketch shows a little sport or informal street costume for Autumn. It consists of a beige and brown. checked skirt and a brown velveteen blouse with collar and belt of beige. The initials that adorn the front are also of beige. . (Copyright, 1026.) What Do You Know About It? Dally Science Six. 1. What is a dune? 2. What is a reef? 3. What is a “sink™? 4.

BY HER MOTHER, ANNE AUSTI (Copsright, 192, in United States and Great Britain by North American Newspaper Alliance. " Al rights’ reserved.) XIII.—Elizabeth in New York. NLY those women who have struggled alone to ralse a child and make a career for themselves, against almost insurmountable obstacles, can understand the exultation which flooded my heart that Fall of 1923. We were in New York, a mecca toward which my eves had been turn- ed prayerfully since college days. I had, entirely’ without “pull,” forced my way from a'minor position on a magazine to the editorship of one magazine -and the assoclate editor- ship of another. Ve I had a contract which insured fi- nancial security, freedom from the gnawing dread of poverty. Elizabeth was 10 years old and in perfect health; she was safely through the ordinary diseases of childhood and her physical habits were 8o deeply rooted that, un- less accident or some contagious dis- ease overtook her, perfect health was pretty sure to be hers for many years to come. And she was a freshman in high school, a welcomed pupil in one of the finest private schools in the city of New York, Life seemed very wonderful. New York was kinder, more thrilling, more lavish in its gifts than ¥ had dreamed it could be. With a glad sense of fulfillment, Elizabeth and I settled into an apartment in the very heart of Manhattan, and opened our doors to friendship. In those vears of wandering there had been little time for entertaining, though in every city in which we had lived we left friends whom we will never forget abeth Accepted by Friend now we found ‘ourselves stantly meeting clever people, who seemed to ) glad to spend a good many of their evenings in our unpre. tentious but comfortable apartment. Maybe the home-cooked meals were a lure to certan precariously existing ireenwich Village art and_writ- ers, but if so, I am glad that T had taught my to cook food that they enjoyed. r they brought riches with them, In exchange for Itallan spaghetti, waflles and broiled steaks, izabeth, having reached the ma- ure age of 10, was permitted to stay up until 9 o'clock and take her part in the ceaseless flow of conversation. 1 indicated very clearly to all new ac- quaintances that Elizabeth was my most intindate friend, that I regarded her as a person, not as a child to be talked down to and patronized, and zibeth's own well poised, charming mality did the rest s was accepted rember of ircle of new friends with which my work as 1 magazine editor brought me into contact.

Even at e of 10 she w as much of a porsonality as any mature n who frequented our apartment, She had been allowed to read any book she wished from the time she had taught herself to read. There s only one exception. When she he picked up my copy of Giu- Mademoisclle Du Maupin” and “gan to read ft. 1 happened to be at yme at the time, and, while 1 did not »bid her to read it, I explained that it would be quite uninteiligible. to her at that age and that she would enjoy it. far more when she was older. She it up without any visible regret and has not vet read the book, though it is in plain sizht on the bookshelves, But con- s | work But it seems to me that she has read almost every novel that I ever heard of. MHer appetite for books is in- satlable, and she reads with amazing rapidity. One rather old-fashjoned woman wds shocked when she saw that Elizabeth. at 10, was reading Thomas Hardy’s ““Tess of the D'Urbervilles” and “Jude the Obscure.” When I explained that Elizabeth had been taught the so- called “facts of life” from the time she was 7 years old, the old-fashioned woman was even more shocked. When she was gone Elizabeth re- marked to me: “I really can’t see why she should be so shocked because T know all about my body. Sex isn't any more mysterious or shocking than dietetics and not half so interesting.” Protected by Knowledge. ‘When, in our living room, the heat. ed discussions turned upon Freudian psychology, Elizabeth was able to ex press her opinfons on inhibitions and complexes with the best of them. And in behalf of my friends—all of them clever, creative people—I should s that not one of them ever expressed any surprise or shocked disapproval at the extent of Elizabeth's knowl- edge. They with me, that full knowledze has kept Elizabeth free from _obscene, secret brooding and from ugly whispering with other girls. Because Elizabeth and I are as close as two human beings can possibly be, I know that she is clean and sweet and wholesome clear through. At the same age my mind was filled with dark half truths, tormenting ques- tlons, tag-ends of half-heard, less than ‘half-understood obscenities whispered by evil-minded, untaught children. I think T have chosen the better way in dealing with Elizaheth. At least our compiunionship is absolutely com plete: there are no dangerous fields which we must skirt, with a wary, shamed on each other. The en- tire openness and lack of celf-con sclousness with which Elizabxth dis. cusses with me the sex problems that arise in conversation or in the books she is reading proves to me that there are no dark, hidden chambers in which ugliness and ignorance are flourishine, New York offered Elizabeth mu- seums, z0os, parks, aquariums, art ex- hibitions, symphony concerts, drama. opera. and all the books in the world to read, and she set about acquiring these treasures for her own as soon as she arrived here.

Rubber panties have their uses; just don't overdo them. 3. How would vou treat a boil on a baby's neck? Cover the bofl with a clean pack of absorbent cotton wet in hot boric acid solution (one teaspoon of the boric acid crystals dissolved in one pint of boiling water. Keep covered). Cover this with a plece of oiled silk and keep in place with a bundage. Put on a fresh piece of cotton fre- quently. This will draw the boil to a head and it can then be pressed out and the wound covered with more clean cotton wet with the horfc solution. If this is done there should be no danger of infecting other areas of the skin and making more boils possible. Boils, though, are a sign of reduced resistance. Give the baby cod liver ofl. look to his gen- eral dlet and care. * Leaflets You May Have.
