Children owe their parents nothing, _not. love, mnot! obedience, not respect; they have but one duty, and that is to grow up. But parents owe - their children everything.

The wise parent does not desire the respect that comes with cap in hand and faltering speech, but looks instead for the freely given confi- | dence that is born —of the child's whole trust and well founded adm! ration. The wise parent knows, 100, that gratitude 1is a virtue which | emanates from the teeth out and shows a tendency to disappear on those very occasions when it is sup- | posed to stand by, He never thinks | or talks of gratitude. i The sole reward of parents is one which they must earn.

When the reel breaks, others have | of hat which | thinkers, another ' BY HENRI BENDEL New York, Feb. 6.—Daytime trocks for the early spring retala their former simplicity and youth- fulness and add a piquancy charm that sets them apart from the late winter styles. Materials , are very important this spring, and are varied. Toe glossy surfaces and those with & high shecn are not so smart as those that are less obviously sitky. The satin, for instance, of this year, has toged down Iits high- lights and has depth rather thaa brilliance. 8ilk crepes that are really smart have & dull mat surface, rather than a shiny one, with 8 decided crepiness to the weave, The prints of this season achieve perfeetion of design :nd beautiful color eschemes rather than daring effects. All of these manifestations in material are prompted by the present sophisti- cated attitude of women toward her clothes. She seeks all the time to per- fect what is good and tried, and to grow Into clegance rather than novelty. Hlustrating the Trend Vionuet illustrates the modern trend in clothes perfectly in the morning frock which is made of flat crepe in two shades of tan and where the triangle is the motivat- ing design. Tt is formed almost entirely of angles, so deftly ar- ranged that they are mo monot- onous in the least. The sleeve fo cut raglan style—Vionnet special- izes in this line, and the eollar folds so softly that there is mo suggestion of severity. Fullness is introduced in the skirt by the addition of a triangu- lar insert in the front, and the only concession to ornamentation is suggested in the brown rings which fasten the narrow, tailored belt. Another daytime frock easy to wear, carried mode of the moment, ia the model developed in- bols de rosc silk crepe.. The distinctive blouse has a side jabot. which effect s re- peated in the wide girdle whieh ties in a large bow with long ends at the right hip. Severely plain sides wrap over the pleated section of the skirt and form an overskirt. on the left side.

This conception was based on the similarity of the symptoms which followed snake bite, and of the effect of various substances on the snake venoms. The studies were, however, mostly chemical studies, Immunology " Tieeent investigations have heen made by the method of the tcience of immunology which deals with the building up of resistance in the body against virious poisons. Such tests arc carried out in two ways—by animal experiment- ation and by the placing together in tubes of the poisonous sub- stances and of portions of blood of animals into which small doses of the poisonous substances have been injected. As a result of such investiga- tions, it has now heen determined that the vendms of six species of North American rattlesnakes con- tain identical or almost identical poisons. The polsons of the cop- perhead and moccasin snake are practically identicall but differ from thosc of the rattlesnakes. The poisons of the crotalus ter- rificus or rattlesnake of Central and South America and that of the bothrop atrox or fer de lance differ entirely from those of the snakes of Norih America. The poisons contain not only certain substances which produce paraly- sis of nerves and death, but also other substances the effects of which on the human body have not yet been determined. Preventing Death In these experiments the chief end sought is the development of antl-serums with which to prevent | death from snake bite. It has been possible to develop serums for some of the poisons, the effec- tiveness depending to some extent on the amount ¢f poison injeced by the snake when it bites. Tt has heen shown that the rat- tlesnake does not eject the entire Q.—What tionist ?

The human body can take care of a certain amount of the poison, responding with some inflamma- tion and weakness, To save life it is necessury to inject enough; serum to neutralize the excess of poison above this dose. The large Florida diamond back and water moccasin seem to eject much more poison propor- tionately than do the ordinary rattle snakes and more anti serum is required for them.
