As a result, he is sure to be pleased as well as the older folk. The blouse is a very new one with the long-waisted effect and 1t is joined to a wide belt, with trousers that are straight, for straight trousers make a feature of the season. Asshown the suit is made of tan and white Shepherd's check with trim- ming of plain tan color, but this a a suit that would be pretty made of serge, or any similar wool material and also of, gingham, of light weight éponge, galatea,’ and in fact any of tEe washable fabrics that are liked for small boys. The long sleeves and the high collar are becoring, \but there is warm weather coming when ssquare neck and short sleeves will be fiked and the blouse can be finished in either way. Besides being attractive nd practical, the little suit is an easy one fto make. For the 4 year size will be required 214 yds. of material 27 in. wide, 134 yds. 36 or 114 yds. 44, with 14 yd. 27, for collar apd caffs; 34 yd. to trim as shown in small view.

This box-plaited skirt is one of the | latest to have appeared. Itis cut in four pieces and joined to a smooth yoke and this yoke is made with seams over the hips. In the picture, the material is gabardine, and gabardine is a deserved favorite, but the skirt can be used for a variety of materials. It can be utilized successfully for the coat suit, and it is just as pretty and graceful for the indoor gown. It is simple, it is easy to make; consequently it seems to mean all ad- vantages. The ];llaited portion is cut in four gores and the yoke in three pieces, but the seams of the skirt are concealed by the plaits. The finish can be made at the high or at the natural waist-line. The buttons make the only trimming for the skirt illustrated, but buttons are | so handsome this season that they can | be made a feature. .

' Suggest That Babies Be Farmed Out Until They Reach the Age of Five Years Unfair to Father When He Comes Home to Find Apart- ments Filled With Noisy Children and Distracted Wife, Fleischman in New York Tribune.) When a young woman starts out to step ‘on al vour pet notions, and those of your forebears, vou might expect sdme bitterness, some derision, and some strident mil- itantism. But when Miss Rosalie Jones exploded a mental bomb which blazoned that family life was main- ly mere sentimentalism, she laughed apologetically and was quite as calm rin manner as when she said, “All { women aren’t mothers. Few know ! how to take care of children, and i others should not attempt to do it. “A beautiful family life is as often jas not a great handicap. A group of people who are temperamentally un- { suited to one another try to fit their | personalities to the common demand, {and the result, is ‘unfairness to some one. Have you ever noticed a lit- | tle boy who is quiet and dull at home, i generally unapproachable and un- ! happy, who at the house of one of his friends is the life of the gather- ing? The child’s environment is un- congenial. But it is his family; it | will always be his family and he must always stifle his discomfort and mould his tastes according to its de. mands.” Tt was while telling of the reasons which led her, with an income from $1,000,000, to enter into work with a monetary return that Mis Jones | made these statements, which show a | progression from her gory of suffragist to a place among those convention-demolishing women | whom the world calls feminists. The erstwhile “general” of suffrage hike fame looked very ingenuous and wide-eyed, sitting on an oily log at the rear wheel of her yellow ‘‘Votes for Women” car. She wore an all- concealing dark blue linen apron, and bag cap on her head.

She is throwing some one way down the lagder out of employment. That is of | course nonsense. The more women werk the more rungs will be created on the ladder.

'Y " she smiled; “their stand- ards might be raised, too,with profit.” The time will come, Miss Jones is positive when all women will be doing the work they like, instead of that | which is thrust upon them, and more men will be doing the work they like | than are now able to do it. “Isn’t it funny that women were all left out of the Utopian scheme?
