She stood aside on the landing, so he could pass. For Godfrey to meet anyone just now was the agony of exposing wounds. He plunged into speech, "Kiddies finished their supper?" he inquired, looking over the tray with its half -eaten bread cruets, empty egg ,hells, and gay little egg cups paint- ed with yellow chicks (he wondered dully how anyone ever happened to paint chicks on egg cups, as if it Were worth the trouble). "There's nothing left for you if that is what you mean," said the cruel Mugging. "And if you are hun- gry you had better go down to the kitchen and have Maggie spread you a ppjeee of ',treed pad butter."

If you are making in c school dresses, get samples of different materials' and ask daughter to choose that which she would like, Doubtlees she will' stake a wrong choice, selecting the most unsuitable. But don't laugh at her; don't make her ashamed. En- deavor to show her ler error in a way she eon understand. Get her to tell you what qualities, in her opinion,' a school dress should have, Of course, yon know it should wear well, wash well and not show soil too cagily, and not be readily torn; but she may never have thought of those things. Let tach sample, then, be analyzed to meet those requirements. When the suitable material has been selected, attention should he turned to the cloth's suitability to the child in question. The color must he one in which she looks well and the pattern appropriate for her age. By suggestion, display and study famil- iarize her with these requirements,' and you will develop in her a taste. for simple. well made clothes she would be far less apt to have were she continually wearing dresses with no thought as to why they were of such a color or material or cut in such a way. Though the desirability of simple cut be impressed upon her, do not confound simpleness with plainness. A simply cut dress finished at neck and sleeves with a bit of lace, or brightened by contrasting material in banding or piping, is attractive, but a plain dress, absolutely devoid of all "finishing touches" is actually homely, and in all but the poorest of families, wholly unnecessary. Teach the value of these simple means of finishing a dress. Contrast the sev- I erely plain dress 'with the slightly trimmed one. Also, when opportun- ity presents itself, point out the mis- tak of overtrimming. A dress half covered with lace and ribbons and ornamental buttons is not only in bad taste, but is generally mere cheap display. If daughter lends a hand at the washing andironing she will learn even more about the materials her -res: es are made of, and will quickly, see why the dainty little party dress would never do for school wear, and why, also, mother desires her to wear soft crepe underwear in sum- mer in preference to that which re-' quires starching and ironing.

Ino Not Permit Faultfircdiag at the Table, To have a comment made 011 dishes at the table, as too much or too little seasoning, etc., is a habit into which many families unconsciously fall. It is very trying to the housewife, and besides has a tendency to make the food appear less inviting, and gives a depressing effect, as all fault-find- ing does, One mother noticed that th!o habit was growing on her children, and cle- temined'that some way must be found to stop it. She called a family' meeting and told them that site did her best to have the food and table .lust as nice as she could, and that theyshould do their part andd be kind and polite, keep still about any dish they did not especially like. She emphasized the fact that criticism at the table was not good manners. She told then) that if they had anything special to criticize they could come to her alone after the meal and she would be glad to listen to the complaint. But strange to say, being forbidden to criticize at the' table, the children made very few Ask for r'inarct'e and take no other.
