In France, where expert needle- work is plentiful and cheap, this re- vived fashion for shirring has galned more of a place than in this courd . There was a_type of shirred georgette or chiffon frock this Summer that gained great favor in Paris, especially among Americans. It was shirred 8cross the shoulders, about the hips and in two or three rows between. There were also several rows of shir- rinz on the sleeves. Chanel is given credit for originat- ing this revival.

THE DOROTHY DIX I KNOW BY RICHARD DUFFY. Even the postman likes Dorothy Dix. though he has told her at times that her abundance of daily mail from almost every section of the United States involves far more than her share of wear and tear upon Uncle Bam's equipment. [ suppose there is hardly a city, town or hamlet from the Atlantic to the Pacific in which Dorothy Dix couldn't discover a friend. Tt might be a prominent banker of the community, or it might be a girl behind a counter. But either one would have met her first through her newspaper column when in search of advice upon the problem or problems. how to get the most gond out of life and the least ill. Tt has always amazed me that peo- ple should wonder whether Dorothy )ix is 4 real person. and my amaze- ment proceeds from the fact that her very strong yet gentle and witty pe sonality is revealed so plainly da: after day In what she writes. She® could not be merely a name and write as delightfully and sincerely she does, and personally, she is every bit as delightful and sincere as her writings. It has heen have known Dorothy vears and the acquaintance began when T wasx editing a New York magazine, to which T asked her to contribute some articies. 1. too, at that time had some doubts about the reality of Dorothy Dix. but 1 soon learned that her name in private life is Elizabeth Merri- wether Gilmer ‘Then she was working as a reporter for « New York newspaper, and they were very different days from the present. when “the little lady of New Orleans.” as she is called, talks inti- mately to millions every day. Many of her assignments were taken from the police blotter and in the pursuit of her mation from all sorts and conditions ©f people in all sorts and conditions of places 1t was the hardest and even dis- couraging training for a young voman who had been nurtured and sheltered 1 the cultured environ- ment of a prosperous Southern home. But she was thoroughly game and these early newspaper ordeals pro- vided her mind with an insight into human emotions such as few people ever acquire Prefers Real People. Dorothy Dix decided that the real eople. high and low, umble. with whom she came in con- tact as 4 reporter were far more in- teresting than any of the fiction characters she met in the magazines. B0 that was why she resolved to keep vay from the fiction field and write apout actual personalities she has come to know.

But, fortunately for her- self and her millions of readers all over the world, she soon entered news- paper work. “I pondered for a time time on what line T should take,” she says. “And then it came to me that everything in the world had been written about women, and for women, except the truth. They had been celebrated as angels; they had been pitied as mar- tyrs; they had been advised to be human doormats. I knew that women knew that they were not angels and that they were tired of being martyrs and doormats. They were fed up on DOROTHY DIX. fulsome flattery and weary of suffer- ing, so I began writing for my sex the truth—as I have seen it—about the -relationships of men and women.” And so from her beautiful Moorish mansion In Audubon Park in New Orleans she helps to unknot the tan- gled web of human lives through her newspaper column or by special deliv. ery or telegram when necessary.

A motion picture company offered her a fabulous =um for the mere use of her name on the silver screcn, but she refused the handsome proffer he- cause she thought they might mis. represent the tone and meaning of her work. The philosophy of Dorothy Dix shows that she writes from her heart ! and soul. “I have had what people call a hard life,”” she says. ‘I have been through the depths of poverty and sickness. I have known want and struggle and anxiety and despair. [ have always had to work beyond the limit of my strength. . “As I look back upon my life, [ see it as a battlefleld strewn with wrecks of dead dreams and broken hopes an shattered {llusions—a battle in which I always fought with the odds tremendously against me, and which has left me scarred, and bruised, and maimed, and old before | my_time. “Yet I have no pity for myself; no tears to shed over the past and gone sorrows; no envy for the women who have been spared all that I have gone through. “For I have lived.

She wonders helplessly what she would do if she had to earn her own living. “I am not afraid of poverty. be- cause I have been poor, and I know that poverty has its consolations and brings you pleasures that money cannot buy. Nor am I afraid to sup- port myself. I have earned my bread and butter for many years.

She had just come off a case 'yesterday and hadn’t had a chance to rest. Night nurse, too. That was bad. She hadn't nursed a night case in some time, and she never had any luck trying tc sleep in the daytime. But' even as these thoughts flashed through her mind, she was slipping out of her nightgown and into her clothes. Then before she packed her bag, she went over to the window and looked out. The rain was still coming down in a thin misty drizzle, a February rain, dreary and apparently incessant. She shivered as though she actually felt it beating down on her. Pneumonia, how she dreaded it! It was always such a hard struggle agalnst such terrific odds. More people lost out than ever pulled through, and to Betty it was a personal thing when she lost a case. Nursing had not blunted her as it had most of the others, and she still had an almost childish fear of death. With a sigh she turned away from the window, and hurrying over to the chest of drawers she began to take out uniforms and caps. These she packed with her nurse's kit in her small handbag, and then, with a last look about the place, she snapped off the lights and a moment later was running lightly down the stairs. The wind sweeping around the cor- ner caught her full in the face, mak- ing her gasp for breath. Useless to expect to find a taxi on a night like this and in a neighborhood so quiet, and yet luck was with her.

A light was burning shaded so that it could not shine in the patient's eyes, and the window was wide open, a rule most generally adhered to in pneumonia ses. Outside the rain still fell, toneless pattering, infl- nitely dreary, but inside there was a more ominous sound, the labored breathing of the patient in the nar- row, white bed. (Copyright. 1926.)

One approaches the subject of rick- ets with trepidation. Tt is a question upon which there are sc many con- ‘| jectures that it ill behooves any one to set down any fact for fear that within the month it will be proven erroneous. We know that rickets is a disease caused by the Inability of the body to extract sufficient calcium | and phosphorus from the food to fur- nish the bones and teeth with an ade- quate supply. The result is that the bones are so soft that they bend and the teeth fail to appear, or when they do appear decay easily. What causes rickets we do not know exactly. Sometimes it is be- cause the child is getting a diet poor in calelum and phosphorus. But chil- dren do develop rickets in spite of a good diet, cod liver oil, sunlight and everything. That is what makes the “cause” of rickets such a debatable point. Those Mast Disposed. All_kinds of children get rickets, the rich. the poor, the nursling and the bottle baby, but there are certais classes who are more than ordinari disposed to it. For instance, children of the darker races, especially negro children. Children who live in dark rooms and who do not get the benefit of plenty of air and sunshine. Chil- dren who are fed exclusively on the breast after 9 or 10 months of age. Children who are fed on patent foods which are lacking in essential ele- ments. Children who don’t get milk Children who get nothing but milk during the sec- ond year and lack all the other foods classes he is more disposed to rickets than the baby, we will say, whose mother gave him orange juice and cod liver oil at the age of 3 months and on. Who had vegetables and cereals and egg yolk added to his diet at 6 months of age. Who was weaned, as he should be, at 9 or 10 months of age and who after that had from a pint to a quart of milk daily, and in addition cer egES, vegetables and fruits. Characteristic Symptoms. This is the way a mother may know that a baby has a tendency to rickets: If he cannot hold his head up at 6 months of age. If he has no teeth by the time he is 1 year of age, If he fails to stand alone or try to walk by the time he is 14 months old. If, when he does walk, he fs decidedly how-legged. Some children have a tendency to bow-legs and still do not have rickets. In that case every other slgn of proper development would be present. Children with advanced cases of rickets show square heads, pigeon breasts, bow-legs and knock-knees, a row of little knobs at the end of the ribs which have been called the rachitic rosary; enlarged ankle and wrist joints, very large pot-bellies and cavedin chests. All of these signs may not be present, but enough of them to be noticeable will be. The Cure. ‘The diet must be corrected. For the nursing baby the addition of cod liver ofl and orange juice, sunshine and a fuller diet. A correct milk for- mula (not a patent food, but fresh milk, sugar and water), for the bottle baby. Egg yolk, beginning as early as the fourth month. Always cod Itver oil for the nursing, the bottle baby or the baby on a general diet. The first for prevention, the latter for cure. If the baby isn't cured in from six weeks to two months, he will need other individual treatment and other drugs. Rickets can be prevented by being careful of the baby's diet early in life, seeing that he gets the right foods and that he gets cod liver oil and plenty of good, cheap sunshine. Sun- light helps the body make use of the caleium and phosphorus that is in the food. So that food, cod liver oll and sunlight are at present time our best methods of both prevention and cure, because rickets can be cured, and the deformities can be cured also if the desease is taken in time before the bones have become set in their de- formity.

Its ac- curacy must be beyond question, be- cause it is itself the final arbiter of scientific accuracy for the country at large. So to find woman scientists employed in its work pretty thor- oughly overthrows the old notion of feminine disability along mathemati- cal lines. Miss Girace Hazen, assistant physl- cist in the radio division, although ob- 1 MISS GRACE HAZEN. viously feminine to her fingertips, per- forms work of so highly technical a nature that it is almost impossible to translate its vocabulary into lay term: For example, the description, suppo: edly ‘“popular,” which was i ued by the bureau concerning the first paper Miss Hazen published after coming there is headed by the title, “Primary Radlo-Frequency Standardization b Use of the Cathose-Ray Oscillograph,” and goes on to say. “This paper de- scribes a method used to establish the primary radio-frequency standard of the bureau. It uses a tuning fork with an electron tube drive as a stand- ard basis,” etc. If you are a ra- dio fan, a 1 one, probably that wsounds intelligent and illuminating, but it does leave the ordinary reader rather cold. And yet, to Miss Hazen, this is sim- ple, everyday .language, and becau: she is entirely unassuming and b cause she has a sense of humor, she explains a great deal concerning the character of the woman scientist of today. Work done for the love of it becomes as much a part of l?w work- er as the air he breathes Miss Hazen's own life story sets the stage very appropriately for her ca. reer in the radio world.
