Black, black, black—we hear so much about the smartness of black, and so long as Paris is the cradle of fashion inspiration ‘we shall always have the importance of black borne in| tions, ete. upon us. Black with white is smart, but there are many women who ought never to attempt this combination. It demands such minute attention to de- tails in order not to look merely strik- ing—and nothing k. ‘Wonders have been done with green within the past few years, so that from Tanking with one of difficult colors it is now thought of a_color that almost any one can wear.

Washington History BY DONALD A. CRAIG. March 13, 1858.—Mathew B. Brady's Daguerreotype Gallery, in Brown'’s Hotel black fl Pennsyivania avenue, is an art al to anything of the kind in the country in all its ap- pointments. Its had a sim- ilar gallery here 18 or 20 years and he was careful to preserve fine pictures | of all the public men of the times, who | figured in our national affairs. | He has sedulously pursued the same | policy ever since. uence is | that he has perhaps the largest collec- | | tlon of striking rtraits of persons | known in our public history in the last | 25 years that is anywhere in existence. | Mr. Brady's gallery in this city is | constantly attracting _visitors from among the residents of Washington, and persons who come here to “see the | sights.” The Evening Star in an article today calls special attention to the im- portance of Mr. Brady's collection and the attractiveness of his establishment. In New York Mr. Brady has a gal- lery that ranks first among the hun- dreds there, and his pictures were re- garded as the best exhibited at the grand exhibition of all nations that | a1y was held in Paris a year or so ago. “As works of mechanical genius and artistic finish,” l?yl ‘The Star, “no finer daguerreotyping_was ever seen than the pictures of Brady, in all the various styles in which his operatives take them and his artists finish them. “His &ruent establishment here has been fitted up at greater cost than any other we have seen this side of New York, and embraces all the various im- producing , editor and pro- ington News, an- his paired health and his decision to enter upon another position, “To those who are still indebted io ‘Thompson, “we make our they will pay at our street, the amount vertising, subscrip- jary affairs in - itis- up our pecun! airs 2 satis- factory manner to all who have claims against us on account of this paper, and also to make return of moneys paid in advance beyond the present time.” us,” says Mr. Smothered Beefsteak. a little r, one tablespoonful of teaspoonful of sage, or use onions and enough milk to moisten.

One Mother Says: Few children can sharpen a pencil with & knife and if they try a pencil sharpener such as one can buy at any 10-cent store for 5 or 10 cents they are to waste far more points than they make. This is not entirely the fault of the sharpener which is per- fectly all right up to a certain point, but 9 times out of 10 breaks the lead before it will cut it to a sharp perfect point. My children have discovered that a good point may be made by rubbing the lead on a piece of sand g:rr. The strip on the side of an iinary match box will prove useful for this.

Too Much Attention So many letters from readers say, “I have been on the point of writing you many times, and then I picked up the paper and saw the answer to my ques- tion.” Each looks upon this as pecul- iarly uncanny. But it is no more so than my eommon experience, which is to have half a dogen letters with iden- tical qunuunl':g‘ out of one maul. Sometimes the are so similar that :rl:: is amazed. One shouldn't be, for rywhere are very .

Hell prob- ably fuss if he sees a stranger.” With such unselfish service the natural re- sult is the following problem: “‘How can I break my baby of scream- ing the minute I get out of sight. He is 8 months old, weighs 22 pounds, has no night Mdlnn and is a perfectly healthy, normal baby. “When I lteg from the room he starts crying. If I am gone more than s minute he doesn't stop when I get back, but continues to scream until attention is diverted to something else, I tried to break him by staying out of t until he stopped, but he started in louder than ever. I am now try- to ignore it and act as if it weren't going on, but so far this treatment gives no results. He did not always do this, Paris calls them is other people do for him le, and thus give him & taste of society other than his mother’s. Sometimes this isn't possible, but he has plainly been getting more attention than is good for him. A baby who cries so persistently sounds very much as if he were sitting in a high chair too much. The idea of an active baby, who is playing about a play pen or crib and has toys and blocks and rattles and balls at his command, and who can move about freely, isn't quite in the pic- ture you have drawn. Do two things: Give baby more op- rtunity for activity which can be en- ;‘M quite without any help or atten- tion from you. Continue to ignore his loud screams if they are just selfish, demlndfinf ones. The finest lesson any small child learns is that he can be happy without the constant attention of same adult. ———— Bergen, Norway, shares with Rome the distinction of being built on seven s. many months.
