WOMAN’S PAGE." Applique Trimming for Slips BY MARY MARSHALL. Here is the slip and here is the ap- pligue trimming. For a slip as compli- | INE . cated as this you will need a speelal | pattern, but the trimming—which can, | of course, be used on a much simpler | sort of slip—yqu can easily make with the aid of the cctail sketch shown here. I your slip is white you may make the applique of light green a1 1 pink— green for the two leaves and pak for the petal pieces. The best thing to do is to cut the pieces out from rather heavy paper and then arrange them on the front ef the slip to see whether they are of the right shape and size. Then with these paper pieces as pat- terns cut.out the colored silk, allowing an eighth of an inch on all edges for turning in. Next baste under the edges, Jjust one-quarter of an inch, and then baste the pleces coarsely in place, and after that sew them into position with colored embroidery silk, using a fine hemming stitch. If you have an embroidery frame you may find it convenient to put the ma- terial where the applique is placed into the frame so that your work will be kept perfectly flat. There is an endless variety of the way that you can use appliques, and once you have got the knaek you will have no trouble in making up your own designs. Usually it is best to use ma- terial of the same sort as that used for MENU FOR A DAY. BREAKFAST. the garment. " That is if you are mak- & crepe de chine slip, the applique should be of crepe de chine, while on a satin slip satin appliques are best. (Gopyright. 1931.) Your Baby and Mine BY MYRTLE MEYER ELDRED. Bowlegs. ‘There are ways in which & baby | shows an observant mother that his | nutrition is faulty. Pirst, he dees not | gain as much es the average paby his | | age should gain weekly or ‘monthly. | Secorid, he may be up to weight, but | his tocth and bone development is poor. | He does not have the number of teeth | to be expected at his age; or his long | bones are soft and, therefore. bend under his weight. Even babies who walk quite young do not suffer from bowlegs unless their bones lack the | solidity which comes from the right | kind of food and sufficient sunshine. | This last, sufficient sunshine, is a commodity easy to get in the Summer- time. But during the long Winter months babies suffer greatly from a lack of sunshine, s0 in Winter we fur- | nish them this mysterious element in | sunshine by giving dally doses of cod | liver oil. With sunshine eor with cod | liver oil the minerals in the baby's diet are enabled to do their full duty. Even a good diet can't always prevent a baby's being badly nourished unless he has sufficient sunshine or sufficient cod | liver ofl along with it. Mrs. F. B's baby has developed bow- legs. She writes: “My baby is 15 months old and weighs 22 pounds. having weighed 7! at birth. She has always had cod liver oil and orange juice. She stood on her feet at 7 months and walked at 10 months. She is perfect except that she is terribly bowlegged | Do you think she will outgrow this, or can anything be done to straighten | the legs?” | At tipis age, Mrs. F. B, the chances are excellent for the legs to straighten out naturally. Braces and such de- vices are absolutely the last resort. Good food and sunshine or cod liver oil must | :l’sl be given an opportunity to do their | best. Cod liver oil and orange juice are. of course, essential parts of a perfect diet, but they are not all of it. You did not say what other foods the child had the first year. A proper milk formula, | cereal and vegetables are essentials, too. | The baby is slightly underweight | The bowlegs are indications of | rickets. Rickets in turn is an indica- | tion of faulty nutrition, which results poor bone development. The de-' formities of rickets tend to cure them- selves readily if taken in time. “Taken | in time” means to furnish the child | with a perfect diet, complete in every nutiitional element, so that the bone development may continue apace. In addition to cod liver oil and a good | diet it is sometimes advisable to give | | the child ultra-violet ray treatments to | speed up the normal bone development. | Perhaps you would enjoy having my | diet list for babies of this age, “Weel | Menu for Child From 1 to 2 Year: | With this leaflet you won't be in any Handwriting What It May Reveal.

But she had a spiteful streak and was a little jealous of the people who worked with her hus- | band. "She wanted to make Miss Ken- | nedy feel small and to anger her. And she suceeeded Then the secretary went back and talked to the file elerk.
