In the 101 Ranch ghow the cowgirls are always very much in evidence. They participate in the exhilarating and dangarous round-up of wild steers which is one of the distinctive fea- tures of the show; they ride wild steevs as well as rope them; they ac- complish wonderful feats in high- school horsemanship, and with it all they give a feminine touch to the performance that adds distinctly to its attractiveness, There are, it is announced, fifty cowgirls with the 101 show, and their strenuous riding, about Ranch ews for 8685 Boy’s Suit, with or without Belt, 2,4 and 6 years. { ‘4lso can be made wit i The recklessness of the ‘. their picturesque ranch attire and their all-round cleverness add some- thing to the show that would othér- wise be signally missed. ¢ Delightful scent bags or pillows may be made with any dry, fragrant Jeaves of flewers—geranium leaves, rose petals, heliotrope, lemon ver- benas.

There is no doubt that the problems which arise in taking care of a baby in summer are mdre difficult for the city mother than for the one who lives in a village or in the country. Overcrowded houses, lack of fresh zir, of sunshine, ang of open spaces for play and out of door life make verv hard conditions under which to try to rear héalthy children. Many Sick Bables. During the summer months in most Of the larger citles there is an enor- mous increase in the number of sick babies, many of whom fail to survive this period. These well-known facts have led to the establishment all over the country of what are known as In- fant Welfare or Milk stations. These stations are rooms in charge ot trained nurses .and physicians, to which any mother Who desires may bring her, haby for help and advice in his care. The objfect of these welfare stations is tokeep the babies well, and to pre- vent illness by watching the babies closely and by teaching the mothers how to take care of them. 1If g baby ig found to be sick the mother is re- ferred to her own physiclan if she has one. If not, she is usually sent to a dispensary. The principal factor in keéping the baby well is to have him properly fed. Accordingly..the physician who cares for the. baby should' direct this very carefuyily. - If the mother has no pnysiglan, the siation doctor will examine the baby and order a diet for hym. The nurses will be glad to assist the mether in following out his directions, and will vigit her in her home for this. pur- pose, ¥ Stations Maintained. ‘These stations are sometimes main- tained by the ecity and sometimes by o private society. The mother can find out the location of the station nearest. her home from the papers, or by inquiring of the health officer The baby is weighea at each visit, and examined to see if he needs any special care. If 80, the doctor explaini this to the mother. Theé baby should be brought back to the station at regu- lar intervals in order that the doctor and nurse can watch him.

The mother who is expecting the birth of a baby should go to the station about oncé a montn during her preghancy for advice about herself. The doctor and’ nurse will tell her what food it is best for her to eat, how to take care of the breasts and ripples, and help her to prepare for the baby’'s coming in the best way. 1f she is suffering from any ailment, #uch as vomiting, varicose veins, head- ache or swollen feet, she may learn what to do for these troubles, and, it she desires to go to a hospital for the Lirth the station doctor will probably bo able to arrange the matter for her.

MY BEST GIRL COMING TO FOX'S | “My Best Girl,” with Mag Figman and Lois Meredith in the leading roles, | will hold headline position on the big and varied motion picture program at Fox’s tomorrow and Thursday, when the latest chapter of the “Romance of Elaine” will be shown. “My Best Girl” was made into motien picture form from the play of the sameé name by Channing Pollock and Rennold Wolf. It is a comedy of superb laughable situations based on the troubles of an adventurous youns fellow who assumes another man's name and that other man happens to be a deserter from the army. Troubles follow fast for the fictitious soldier, but everything ends well for him. | Max Figman will be remembered for | his excellent work in ‘“The Hooller; Schoolmaster” and ‘“The Man on the i Box.” Today’'s program is a most excellent one, made up of the first and ; opéning chaptér of “The Goddess,” ° the serial beautiful, in which Anita | Stewart and Earle Willlams are fea- | tured and written by Gouveneur Mor- ris and Charles Goddard. This chap- ter opens with the big finaneial trium- ! virate who fear that they are losing hold of the grasp they now have on | the people. They consult a psychol- ] ogist, who predicts that a woman, pure, Goddess-like, who will make the world and themseélves kneel at her feet will be their only salvation. In scaning over the daily news, the paychologist observes the death of a socety man whose wife is on her death-bed, leaving an orphan.

Another woman told me this story. Her father died, heartbroken ovér the loss of all his money, just before his last child was born.

FARNUM AND JANIS IN FILM FEATURES “Cameo Kirby,” that fascinating ' southern romnace, which for three seasons was one of the most popular dramas on the stage, is doing duty as the feature of the photo-play bill at Keeney's today. The piece in its screen form is even more intéresting than the play. It is in five pafts and every detail of the wonderful story is depicted in intensely _interesting fashion. In the title role, Dustin Far- num, one of America’s foremost actors, is seen. Mr. Farnum was se- lectéd for the part in the picturiza- | tion of the play owing to his familiar- ity with the role. He was largely in- strumental in making it such a bril- liant stage success and his name at once suggested itself when the “movie” impressarios were casting about for an actor to delineate the character before the camera. \ The announcement that Elsie Janis | will be seen in “The Slim Princess” Wednesday and Thursday has alréady attracted a great deal of at- tention and the manageément is look- ing forward to capacity audiences while this picture is a feature. Thuyrs- day Miss Janis will share honors with Rose Coghlan, who is to be featured in “The Sporting Duchess,” the head- liner for that day. This picture will ' also be shown on Friday. “‘Sunshine !

Stewart and Stewart, a pair of singers and conversationalists, who made & pronounced hit in the Winter Garden in New York a few weeks ago, are numbered among the talent.
