You say you did not know I was so great a reader? You are right: I read but little, but always I must have Books for my eyes to see, my bands to touch. Even the backs of books Can make a glowing room. And I must have Various bindings so that 1 know each one • In its separate dress, none of your standard sets. Moments of leisure are few but, when one comes, I-Iow good it is to sink down in the Chair Beside my fire, holding within my hand An old, dear book! No time for a Chapter 'elven, But I let it open itself as by its choice, Easily, beeause opened there so many times. I do not need to look at the words at all-, I shut my eyes, repeating them, loving them. Only a moment. Then back again into the world, Into the bustle and noise, but the book In my heart. Yes, if you give me '_a background, make it of books. —Marjorie Knapp, in The Christian Science Monitor. A Mode of Elegance Is Decree of Paris Paris.—Longer skirts for wear after five o'clock were decreed by the larger houses in fashion shows crystallizing rules for winter styles. Following a mode of elegance which Paris has determined to launch, ankle - length skirts appeared in tea -time cos- tumes, while evening gowns touched the floor, or nearly so, many having slight trains. There were numerous slit skirts for evening, slashed one to eight times. Daytime skirt lengths were measured according to milady's heiglt, varying from eight to thirteen inches from the ground. New afternoon ensembles, fa:;hioned of velvets and broadcloths, were de- signed with long sleeves and long skirts, and had hip -length jackets, richly furred. They were black, bur- gundy, dark green, and navy. The evening mode, of the greatest elegance, was based on a seductive form -fitting silhouette, with decolettes high in front and low in back.

South Africa Infant Death Rates Show Increase The infant mortality rates in Cape Town, South Africa, for the present period as compared with the previous period show increases of 61.59 for all races, 48,25 for Europeans and 64.32 for non -Europeans. The European in- crease was due chiefly to more infant deaths from diarrhoea and ehteritis, and in a lesser degree to there having been fewer births in the present period. Compared with the corres- ponding period of last year these rates show increases of 15.07 for all races, 20.72 for Europeans and 5.41 for non - Europeans.

Mrs, Smith saw it as one by one the family straggled downstairs and ate breakfast 4n grumpy silence. It had begun with her husband who couldn't find his pet tie. Bob knew he had to cut the grass and the pros- pect saddened him. Louise had hid- den a box of- candy but Eddie had found it and eaten all the cocoanuts. The discovery made of life one long dreary prospect of unwitting small brothers. Eddie himself was sour because he liked to be sour. An Irritable Household Mrs. Smith shooed the flies out the kitchen door with her apron. It was hot and she had a headache, Would this summer never end with its cook- ing and its dishes and a family and husband that acted as though a home were pure poison? In the dining room all three of the ohildren were quarreling, Bob and Louise were fighting over who had the best piece of cantaloupe. "Oh, dear!" said Mrs. Smith. "Oh, dear! I think I'll just go crazy. I viten school would start." She was a silent woman usually who 'took her work and her family seriously. She got things done, but usually with a planning look in her eye and a rather strained line about her mouth. Suddenly—she could not have told why for the life of her—she began to hum at little tune. Perhaps it was desperation or perhaps she bad picked up pan idea somewhere. It was something or other she had heard at a movie. She hummed on, as she washed the double boiler. She bummed more loudly and then she sang. The racket in the dining room stopped. Presently Bob came out whistling. Louise called, "Mother, you've got it wrong In one place. It goes like this," and she started In. Eddie same out and said, "Sit down Moth- er." He pushed her onto a chair I and climbed up on her lap. "I like to be babied," he said, Things Begin to Hum Mrs.. Smith saw she had started something. Suddenly she said, "I know what we can do today." "Wheat?" came the expectant chorus. "Have a picnic!" Hea heart sank as she said it. One hadto prepare for a picnic and there was the ironing to finish. But once committed to the accom- paniment,of whoops and yells of de- light, she bravely went on. "I'll have to have a little help." "I'll get the grass cut in ten min- utes," shouted Bob, "I'II make the beds'." "I'll be a good bey," said Eddie. It was a tidy house they left. They had no car but they took a street- car to the end of the line and soon found a creek and a cool spot where willows grew. Mrs, Smith lay on the ground after lunch and went Bleep while the children waded. They all came home tired. Mr. Smith came home tired and cross. Mrs. Smith began to hum. Mr. Smith's spirits Improved, Instead of saying he was disgusted with his job, he began to talk hopefully of the future. Mrs. Smith said to herself that night, "It's a hard world for women. But," she added whimsically, "in boosting the rest, I guess yon boost yourself too. It' been a pleasant day."
