WOMAN'S REALLY BRIGHT IDEA
•orap Book Designed Originally fee
Doctor's Waiting Room Makee
Acceptable Present.
The wife of a physician devised a
way by which tedioua walta In het
husband's outer office were mad*
much more bearable. She provided
herself with several medlum-elied
•crap books, not too bulky to handle
eully. In these she pasted shor
•lories old and new, that In the
eourse of wide reading she hkd out
from magazines.
The stories were arranged undet
different headings, as telephone, da-
lectlve, problem, love, dialect In this
way one could easily And the kind ol
literature that waa liked.
There wub a special book or two for
children, filled with pictures, funny
rhymes, and fairly tales that kept
many a small patient peaceful until
the doctor sppeared.
A short story scrap book, if bound
In a handsome cretonne or silk covet
with the initials of the owner maks
a delightful gift for a semi Invalid, or
will be appreciated by any woman. II
it Is good looking enough to lie on
tbe diawlng room table and pacify her
callers while waiting for their hostess
to appear.
Should College Girls Marry
Somebody facetiously said' "If an*
body will ask 'em, yes." But many
people think that higher education un-
fits girls for housework, and the care
of children, and the manifold distrac-
tions of home life.
But, after all, does It not teem ah
surd to even question It?
Somebody has said that study of
any sort was useful only aa a stimu-
lus, and If the mothers of the raoe do
not need mental ■tlmulua, who
does? Domestic science takes men-
tal energy, and the most trivial
taak is the better for bringing
to it a mind stimulated by study, Im-
proved by reading, and broadened by i
contact with others In the college
fields.
The underlying principle Is the
same—to better conditions for the
race, to live up to the best that la in
us. And if our education has been
along higher lines, we will make bet-
ter wives and mother* As Emerson
•ays, "We can more easily stoop to
a taak than rise to It-
Have wo not all heard mothers say:
"I feel like a back-number with my
children; I wish I could keep pace
with then, enjoy their reading, thetr
tasks, help them with their schoolI
But I did not begin early enough!"
In that pitiful wall of the mother
Ilea the answer to ths question.

To Protect Baby.
Every baby ariives at the age when
it can pull itself up in Its crib, and
then begins the mother's anxiety.
Even provided the crib is of such a
height at the ends and sides that the
baby cannot fall out, there is the prob-
ability of Its Jumping up against the
side rod of the crib. There may be
had an attractive light blue or pink
quilted satin to cut into four pieces
for the sides and ends of the crib.
They should be bound and tied to the
crib with satin ribbons to match, two
inches wide. When cutting allow suf
flcient length to roll the quilted satin
over the top rod, and when tying it on
fasten it to the upright metal rods of
the crib, with the bows on the out-
side. The binding will be a more per-
fect Job if it is stitched on the one
side first by machine and hemmed
over on to the other side by hand.
Green Cloth and Fur.
Many of the modem gowns take the
oldest Inhabitant back to another gen-
eration with a swing. What girl was
there 10 years ago who didn't want 01
own a tight-fitting green broadcloth
gown made with an overskirt, tight
longeleevt1 and the edges of the gown
bordered with brown fur.
This preciwu costume Is back In fash-
ion—overskirt, tight sleeves, fur bands
and all.
In addition to this Is a round toque
of brown fur, with a green silk oenter
and a perky feather standing upright
a£ the side. Tho wearer carries tu h«r
hand a granny's muff of brown fur.

The Craze for Baskets,
Women, nowadays, seem to hare
gene daft about basket* And not aa
a matter of souvenirs; not merely a
fad for the sako of a collection. The
basket, on the contrary, promises once
more to take Its proper plaoe In the
world's neceRsary utensils. Nearly
everybody realizes now the advan
tage of the hamper for linen in pref-
erence to the close, musty laundry
bag, and a basket holds most things
more conveniently than a bag, any-
way. It Is so much easier to get any-
thing out
Baskets for the table are fashion
able now, and are much used to hold
bread, cake or any food which leaves
neat crumbs only. The baskets are
found In moderate alse, shaped Uk«
boats, or of the ordinary round shape.
On the bottom of these Is placed a
dolly. For the boat-shaped ones
be made fitting linings of line, and
these sre pretty If finished with a
trill of lace to hang over the basket
Sometimes this frill Is wide enough to
admit of Its being lifted up and spread
over the contents of the basket These
are especially nice for out-of-door
