The dress of a woman 80 prepared would change color accord- ing to the intensity of the light. Pass- ing from darkness to light, the colors would brighten, thus conforming au- tomatically to the environment, the last word of fashion for the future.” Another of Doctor Clamician’s sug gesticns was that the world prepare to use the daily solar energy, equal to 6,000,000,000 tons of coal, instead of the mere 1,000,000,000 tons of real coal which is mined per year. “Out of the arid lands there will Let us Have you got your Evening Dress yet?

Quite the latest thing in babyland is a crib designed and made for use out of doors, to wheel from room to room and especially constructed for easy transportation. The crib is made of white enameled wood, with foot and headboard of fine steel-wire netting, covered on the in- side with a metal finish to prevent the baby from hurting his hands on any rough edges. The crib rests on four wheels, which enable it to be moved very easily. Its wire spring and its floss mattress may be raised to three different heights by means of screw eyes. The entire crib comes apart and, with wire spring and mattress, can be placed in a large canvas bag, which ocomes with it. Pockets in the bag are made for the wheels, 80 they can- not soll the mattress. In this man- ner the crib can be sent from place to place, and this easy way of pack- ing will be found a wonderful con- venfence, as often hotels do not sup- ply bables’ cribs. In the daytime the crib can be used as a “lttle nursery,” in which the child can be placed with its ratties or toys. In this way it will be found a real comfort to the mother, as she may wheel the child into the room where she is busy and be able tc watch it while attending to her house hold duties. STUNNING EVENING GOWN. The Power of Post Cards. Misunderstandings often cause heartaches. How many of us real- ize what a vast number of lives could be made brighter and the hearts that could be gladdened if we all were free to speak a cheering word here and to send a note of encour- agement there. How many times well intended words or actions of ours are taken in a different spirit than we wish them to be. Under such circum- stances a personal message of good will—just a note or a post card wil smooth over the threatened break in friendship. Most of us talk and write too little. Many a boy leaves home and causes his mother anxiety, just because he doesn’t write her an occasional note or letter. Relatives are very frequently not the friends they should be, simply because they do not communicate freely with each other. An elderly lady went to a well krown hospital in Chicago for a sur- gical operation. After the operation she made little nrogress towards re- ccvery. The days and weeks seemed almost interminable to her. A few post cards were received by tihe pa- tient each day. The cheering mes- sages they brought made her afflic- tion seem lighter. One morning the nurse brought her patient enough cards to fill a small sized album. The lady's friends knowing the cffect the cards would have, showered ker with a half hundred or so. Apparently the post card shower saved the pa- tient's life. They gave her encour- agement and made her determined to win in her effort to regain her health. Many dark hours are brightened, many fond memories revived, and many hearts brought closer together by the exchange of post cards. They are always convenient for use, cspec- izlly when one has a supply of them i the home, and they can be ob- tained for every purpose—Thanks- giving, Christmas, New Year, Easter, etc. Birthday and greeting cards of- tentimes enable one to send rcmem- brances that would otherwise be overlooked. The message of the post- card may be brief, but its beautiful picture or artistic decoration con- veys a meaning that cannot be re- duced to writing. The postcard is easily precerved and can be shown to advantage in an album. One is able to collect them at home from every interesting and historical place in the world. Thus they can be used as educators as well as an expression of sentiment. Let us then increase the sum to- tal of the world’s happiness by free- i our relatives and friends through the medium of the post card.—A. W, 141 5 are always welcome. ing members always welcome. F.
