The owner should also possess the power of expression and hers Is a word of advice the slowest movements aro always the prettiest. People are most likely to catch cold In the back than they are generally aware of and If neglected may prove a serious matter. The back, especially tetween the shoulders, should always be kept well covered and never lean with your back against anything that Is cold. Never sit with your back In a direct draught and when warming It by the Are do not continue to keep the back exposed to the heat after It has become comfortably warm. To do so Is debilitating. The woman who wishes to retain the beauty of her face should forego the u so of the smalllng bottle. Stand In front of a mirror and inhale the pun gent cdor from a smelling bottle and notice the number of lines which form about the eyes, nose and mouth. Each sniff taken from the bottle causes the same screwing up of the face and each time the unbecoming lines deepen.

"My health has been better ever since, can now walk quite a distance and am troubled no more with palpita tion of the heart or bloating.

IS Q LW THE REALM A NereMllr For Winter. A necessity for the winter's ward robe is the shirt waist of fine French flannel, the choice of patterns in this aerviceablo fabric being large and Varied. As here illustrated, hy May Manton, I.AIUKH' BIIIKT WAIST. brown and mode shades formed a fancy bayadere stripe, and the fronts are closed with smooth shining brass button almost as largo as ten cent pieces. At each side of the narrow box plait in centre frout ore five back ward tnrniug side plaits that overlap each other at the neck, and cause pretty fulness noross the bust. Over lapping plaits at the waist line arrange tho fronts in a becoming pouch that is decidedly up to date. The back is 1ADIE81 arranged at the top iu seven small even ly spaced box plaits that are gradu ated to taper perceptably at the waist line, where they are grouped closely together. The top is joined to the lower edge of a poiuted yoke which can be made with or without a centre seam as pre ferred. .Shoulder scams join the yoke to the fronts and single nuder-arm seams join the fronts to the back. A collar baud finishes the neck over whioh may be worn a stock or white linen collar with Ikjw tied as here shown. The shirt sleeves have he coming fulness gathered at the top and the small openings at the wrists are edged with a plaiting of silk or iibbon. The straight cuffs have rounded ends iu latest style and a belt of ribbou with faucy metal clasp is worn around the waist. To make the waist iu the medium size will require four yards of tweuty-eveu'-iuch material. A dimple But Htyllah Gown. A very simple but stylish gown is illustrated in the large engraving in figured French flannel, showing wavy black lines on a very blue gray ground. Narrow blaok satin ribbon is used in deeorating and a half girdle of wider ribbon is tied in a graceful bow with ends at the front. The graduated gathered flounce that forms the lower part of skirt is one of the most popu lar modes introduced this season. The gown has a Princess back correctly fitted with onrved centre seam, side back and nnder-arm goreB, that com plete the close adjustment. The fronts Lave easy fulness gathered attheneok and close in centre front with buttons and buttonholes, the ribbon girdle in serted at the under-arm seams confin ing the fulness at waist line. The standing oollar that finishes the neck is topped with a ciroular turn over portion that ripple becomingly. The two seamed sleeves meet the require ments of site as deoreed by fashion for this season, the trimming of velvet at the top being arranged to meet that oa front of waist. The wrists are wV m mm OF FASHION. completed with pointed ends that flare orer the hands. The lower edge of gown is shaped low and round in front while short in centre back. Tho graduated lower portion of flonuoe being quite narrow in front and extending to half tho length of skirt in hack. The flounce is made with a narrow heading and the foot is trimmed with three evenly spaced rows of black satin ribbon. To mnke this gown for a lady of medium sixn will require eight and one-half yards of material thirty-sis inches wide. The Collar ror the Hhlrl Walat. The turn-over linen collor has a firm hold on popular favor, but the Intent designs are cut to turn up iu the back and down in front uud on the sides. These will be worn with the silk shirt waists of the winter. These waists nre simply made with clusters of cord ed tucks, A model always popular has three box-plait down the front, but this season the plaits nre made of corded tucks. Prune and yellow seem to be the popular colors for Bhirt waists; yellow, trimmed with rows of mauve or purplo velvet ribbon, is lovely. Iteautlfnt I.nie Knot.

The skirt has a narrow front gore and two wide circular portions that meet in a scam at the centre back.

Give the children roasted apples to eat frequently and tu many oranges as they want. How long should a child remain In ft bath? 'This must, of course, depend upon circumstances; the time must bt varied according to the sge of the child. For the first four or five weeks of an Infant's life It should not ba kept In beyond three or four minutes, and the duration must be gradually prolonged as tho .child grows older un til It extends to a quarter of an hour, a period which may be allowed after It has attained the age of 3 years. When the baby pokes an Inquiring finger Into the flro or tumbles against a hot steam radiator a quick way to relieve his shrieks Is to cover the burned surface with baking powder till a preparation of equal parts of linseed oil and lime water can be ap plied and covered with soft cloths. If the burn is slight covering with the white of an egg or pure Inrd will re lieve the agony. Burns caused by lime or lye or an alkali of any sort should be treated by vinegar or lemon Juice; burns caused by acid should be treated with water and moist earth. There are 'households in which the children are scarcely permitted to apeak above their breath. This Is not at all light. In the home there should be freedom of speech. Children should be encouraged to express. In a modest way, their opinions before their par ents and to come to them for advice and counsel In all their difficulties and dilemmas. It this course Is pursued they will not be likely to take any serious steps In after life without either consulting the old folk at home or ap plying the home standard of propriety to whatever enterprise they may bavt In view.
