WOMA Emergency Equipment in Handbag BY LYDIA LE BARON WALKER. ‘Whatever the size or style of the handbag one carries, it should be sup- plled with some sort of nm;{ency equipment. This will vary in bulk and :’nwm, according to the space per- tted. The first thing always thought of in this connection is some sort of sewing materigl for the unexpected run in a or rip in the hem of a dress, etc. In pouch bags this takes the form i, | FOR THE BUDDEN APPERANCE A RUN IN A STOCKING EMERGENCY SEWING CASE IS INVALUABLE:. of a small thimble case with threads wound on & stem inside, and with a place for needles.

D. Lack of Exercise. Dr. Jesse F. Williams, professor of h; go umbia University, has certainly created a stir by his statement that morning setting-up exercises and cold showers are not so beneficlal as com- monly supposed, and are “silly, super- stitious and artificial.” Certainly setting-up exercises are artificial, but I don't agree with Dr. Williams that they are silly and su- perstitious. I do agree that they are not so beneficial as is believed. For the simple reason that they are not practical systematically enough! Natu- rally, I'm talking about the normal, not those who have some contra-in- dication to exercises. As I &nd!fl:‘nd.luDr, ‘Williams ':;. sgainst the set “setting-up” exercises, not exercises such as walking and gomes. Certainly games, especially out- door games, that call into play most of the muscles of the body, are more beneficial than ordinary setting-up ex- ercises. Golf, for instance, swimming, tennis and hiking, especially over hilly und. But how about the many who ven't the time for these diversions? ‘They certainly should have some daily, systematic exercise. It is the exercises of the trunk muscles that you get in the setting-up exercises, that are of especial value. ‘There is sources of the benefits of setting-up exercises to discountenance them.

A book o. stamps should be in- cluded in the same envelope as the cards. If the need of posting is imme- diate, the correspondence card may be used as a post card, and if not, it may await the return to the house, where there is a supply of envelopes. Should one attempt to include all of the items mentioned, it is well to have a container for the entire number to slip side the handbag,~so that the lcose ticles will not be confused with the regulation necessities contingent upon its ordinary use. Your Baby and Mine BY MYRTLE MEYER ELDRED. Mrs. D. E. H. writes: “I have been reading your articles a long time, and think they are good. I have a very different problem, and I really do not know what steps to take with this child. “This boy of mine will be 10 in a few days. Ever since he has been old enough to walk I have had trouble with him. I've punished him in different ways, but nothing seems to do any good. The thing he does most is to steal, and when I find him with money and ques- tion him he will lie and lie and lie. “He takes money out of my purse or any one's else that happens to be about. When we miss it and ask him if he took it, he always denies it with such a convincing look that it is hard to disbelieve him. A few days ago he took 50 cents out of my purse. He spent it for candy, ice cream, pop and a Yale lock. I threatened to put him | in a reform school if he didn't tell the truth, and he finally admitted it. Money is-such a temptation to him. “He will do anything to earn it—sells | magazines, runs errands, helps a farmer sell vegetables, and countless other jobs. | He brings it home and puts it in a box toward his education. He has quite a nice little bank account. Perhaps you think I do not give him enough money. I let him go to a show on Saturday and give him a nickel to spend. Can you give me any advice?” Answer—Your problem is typical of the child who yearns to spend and has no money to spend. You make your greatest mistake in urging the child to ut all his earnings in the bank. There t piles up, and meanwhile he is so in- spired to spend for the thousand and one things every boy of this age wants that he steals from any source, and nat- urally he lies. You would, too, if had done wrong and knew it. You would be certain to at least try to escape the penalty. You make several mistakes, which, if cor- rected, should help the boy. You must sight, since you know he is tempted. But I feel absolutely certain that if you insist he keep out at least $1 of each week’s earnings for his own spending money, asking no questions and letting him do as he pleases, you will end this trouble. Don't even mention reform schools. Do your part, and there will be no neces- sity for them. Put before a child as an ultimate end, he is certain to reach it, such is the power of suggestion. You must make him feel that you under- stand why mone{‘ tempts him, and that you_are helping him and expect him to do his part. e will if you have faith and faith.

And one of the reasons they are on the increase is that we do not get enough exercise. We continue the same el habits that we used to enjoy in youth, when we were more active, and we pile on weight. Over- ‘weight is the forerunner of many of the diseases I have mentioned. As far as the cold bath is concerned, I am a firm bellever in it. Person- ally, I like & tub of cold water better than I do the cold shower. I wouldn’t think of beginning the day without it. There is one pretty safe rule to go by in the use of cold water—if you feel warm and glowing and alive after its use, then you should take it. Even those who do not get a good reaction could gradually condition themselves by first splashing cold water on the face and chest and daily increasing the surfaces that are splashed. R Lr. Williams is also re) saild that the alarm clock is pernicious because it awakens one violently. I don’t agree with him there, either, for I believe the better sleep on account of the relief from worrying about whether one would wake up on time, counteracts the shock of the alarm. { It one didn't awake on time, the hurry and worry of being late, and the gulp- ing down of the breakfast would also be more harmful than the shock. d to have keep your money or any money out of | tr ts—are taking away much of | full used to get. Today in Washington History BY DONALD A. CRAIG. October 10, 1861.— Maj. Gen. Mc- Clellan and his staff, accompanied by his usual mounted guard, crossed the Potomac River into Virginia again to- day to inspect the new positions taken by the Union Army. The advance movement of the Union troops from Chain Bridge can b2 ex- latned now with propriety. The in- formation was withheld from the pub- lic yesterday to make certain that it did “not. reach Confederates until the movement was an accomplished fact, which it became last night. It is now learned officially that the division under command of Gen. Smith at Chain Bridge advanced about 6 o'clock yesterday morning and occupied gromlnenc positions in the neighl 00l of Lewinsville, Va. When the ac vance reached Langley's, which h hitherto been the outpost of the Union Army in that vicinity, the troops were divided. A part of them continued up the Little Rock Run turnpike and occu=- pled Prospect Hill, and the other part took the new artillery road and occu- pled Smith’s and Maxwell’s Hills, a mile and a half this side of Lewinsville, Batteries were drawn up and infantry placed in position to support them. After waiting about three hours for an attack, Union skirmishers went on and took possession of Lewinsville, the Confed- erates retiring from that town before them. All of the new positions were still occupied by the Union troops to- day, and it is understood that Gen. lI\llnl:tfllellm intends to retain this new e. It was learned today that a portion of the Union troops under Brig. Gen. Ports 1so advanced yesterday and oc- cupled Minor's Hill; to the right of Falls Church, commanding both that village and Barrett's Hill. The latter is occu- pled by Confederate pickets. Gen. McClellan and his staff, accom- panied by “McClellan's Dragoons,” un- der command of Capt. Bucker, crossed the Chain Bridge early yesterday morn- ing and spent the day making recon- naissances of the new positions taken by _the Union forces. It was explained today that the new movement places the Union Army “in possession of the extension on the right of the advanced line occupied some days since by the similar movement, in which Upton’s, Taylor's, Munson’s and Ma- son’s hills were taken possession of by the Federal troops. ‘The Union forces prepared today to meet any attack on the new positions which the confederates may make, but it 1is considered doubtful that Gen. Beauregard, the Confederate command- er, will move against the new line, be- cause he is aware of the advantages of the heights occupied by the Union | ~A 00pS. Home in Good Taste BY SARA HILAND.

American_hamorist, author of the adve tures of Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn. “A " Connecticut Yankee in King Arthu's Court,” ““the Jumping Frog,” ‘Innocents Abroad,” etc.) In the appendix to Crocker’s Bos- well's Johnson one finds the following anecdote; it deals with Cato’s soliloquy: “One day Mrs. Gastrel set a little girl to repeat to him (Dr. Johnson) Cato's soliloquy, which she went through very correctly. 'The doctor, after a pause asked the child: ‘What was to bring Cato to an end?’ he said it was a knife. 0, my dear, it was not so.’ y Aunt Polly said it was a knife.’ ‘Why, Aunt Polly’s knife may do, but was a dagger, m{l dear.’ “Then he asked her the meaning of ‘bane and antidote’ words which She did not “Plagiarist, a writer ofmfll:yl. Dema- gogue, a vessel containing beer and other liquids.” I cannot quite make out what it was that misled the pupil in the following instances; it would not seem to have been the sound of word, or the look of it in print: “Asphyzia, a grumbling fussy temper. Quarternions, a bird with a flat beak and no bill, living in New Zealand. Quarternions, name given to a style of art practiced by the Phoeni- clans. Quarternions, a religious con- vention held every hundred years. Sibilant, the state of being_idiotic. Crosier, a staff carried by the Deity.” In the following sentences the pupil's ear has been deceiving him again: “The marriage was illegible. He was totally dismasted with the whole per- formance. He enjoys riding on a philosopher. She was very quick at repertoire. He prayed for the waters to subsidize. The leopard is watching his sheep. ‘They had a strawberry ch | Vestibule.” words. . Johnson then said: ‘My dear, how many pence are there in sixpence?’ “‘I cannot tell, sir; was the half- terrified reply. On this, addressing him- self to Mrs. Gastrel, the doctor said: “‘Now, my dear lady, can anything teach a child Cato's soliloquy, who does not know how many pence there are in sixpence?' ” In & lecture before the Royal Geo- graphical Society, Prof. Ravenstein quoted the following list of frantic ques- tions, and said that they had been asked in an examination: “Mention all the names of places in the world derived from Julius Caesar or’ Augustus Caesar. “Where are the following rivers: Pisuer, 8, Quadalete, Jalon, Mulde' “All you know of the following: Machacha, Pilmo, Schebulos, Crivoscia, Basecs, Mancikert, Taxhen, Citeaux, Meloria, Zutphen. ‘The highest peak of the Karakorum ange. kli. number of universities in Prussia. “Why are the tops of mountains con- tinually covered with snow (sic)? “Name the length and breadth of the streams of lava which issued from the Skaptar Jokul in the eruption of 1783.” ‘This list would oversize nearly any- body’s geographical knowledge. Isn't it reasonably possible that in our ls many of the questions in all studies are several miles ahead of where the pupil is? That he is to struggle with things that are ludicrously beyond his present reach, hopelessiy beycnd his present strength? This re- mark in passing, and by way of tex now I come to what I was going to say. Answers to questions, made by pupils on examination papers, make up a veri- table “English as she is spoke,” that will illustrate how little' they sometimes grasp. Notice, for example, how the “publicans and sinners” 70: mixed up in the child’s mind with politics, when the result was this defini- tlon which takes one in a sudden and unexpected way: “Republican, a sin- ner mentioned in the Bible.

A Sermon for Today 'BY REV. JOHN R. GUNN. Man With thé Dull Ax. “If the iron be blunt, and he do not whet the edge, then must he put more str :_but wisdom is profitable to direct.”—Ece. 10.10. . “Add a step to it,” said a Spanish father to a son who complained that his sword was too short. A suggestive word is this for the fellow who is short on eqquipment. Let him make up for his lack Just that much more courage and dn’{n{. Being short on natural endowment is no reason why he should complain or Lm:flne that he is too handicapped to achieve a worthwhile destiny, The very fact that he is lacking in the native ‘ability should stimulate him to put forth all the more determined and persistent effort. ‘This is what the writer of Ecclesiastes means by his reference to the man with the dull ax. Of course, this man should endeavor to “whet the edge” of his ax. He can undoubtedly sharpen it t suppose after all that his ax will not sharpen to a keen edge, then what? Let him “put the more strength “behind it. If, after all his eflort to improve himself, he is still Qully let him apply himself the more dilgently and dog- gedly. “Wisdom is piéiitable to direct” as to this. It is not always the fellow with the sharpest ax that cuts the most wood. The keen-witted man_often depends too much on his wit. For that reason by the dull-witted man, who, realizing his limitations, devotes himself to his work with uncommon persistence and perseverance., Let him be determined to make ug for his dullness with a pro- portionately greater exertion and you ?‘l‘l watch out for the man with the ull ax.

Let us suppdse that you are well along in years and your hands show it, or that you have been neglecting your hands for process of making them young and at- tractive again? ‘They may be badly ridged. Some of this you can correct by diet, for this rigidness frequently comes from an acidy and rheumatic condition. Begin by buying yourself a pair of loose rubber gloves, scrub the hands with soap and water, smear them thickly with ordi- nary white cooking lard, pull the rubber gloves over them and keep them on for an hour, during whicl’ time you can work or read with little inconvenience. After a few days of this treatment the hands and nails will be so much im- proved that you can go on to the next step, which is as follows: blades of your manicure scissors or the sharp blade of your cuticle knife or any implement which has a very sharp edge for scraping. A small piece of broken glass is ideal, though you must wrap something around the edge that you hold in your hand. Scrape lightly over the worst ridges on each nail. You can take quite a bit off each ridge without affecting the nail at all. Rub some pol- ishing powder on your buffer and give the nails five minutes’ thorough polish- ing. The ridges will almost disappear. Then rub the nails thickly with cold cream, rubbing it over the nails and into the rims around them and wipe the surplus off lightly. The nails and the partly-grown nails under the skin take up this cream. This makes the new nail come in in a much healthier condition and much better looking. Keep up the hour-a-day treatment until your hands are smooth and young looking. Polish your nails at least five minutes every day, for this is very stim- ulating. Rub them with cream at night.
