Mothers
Nervoui Young Qirlt.
Ono is rather shocked In tliN day of
Athletics nnd fresh ulr to know How
prcvnlcut neurasthenia I n lining youim
girls. Ono Is constantly hearing of
nervous breakdowns while girls arc
still too young to know the meaning
of nerves. This condition hns been
laid at the door of the school llfo by
eminent nuthotilles.
It seems that the practically contin
uous lime tahlo of the school life of
tho present day Is responsible for the
development of nerves. Girls over
trained In nthletlcH and In tho clnss
room develop u restless Incapacity to
Interest nnd occupy themselves sntls
luctorlly when they return to their
homes.
To this grinding nnd pushing Is also
fluo the fact that valuable knowledge
of character Is so 111 assimilated Hint
It falls to make life a comprehensible
and Interesting whole. Tho failure Is
n serious defect In nny system of edu
cation. It Is equally injurious, on tho other
hand, to fill n girl's llfo with such n
continuous round of gnmes nnd les
sons that the knowlcdgo absorbed
from both has no tlmo to be digested.
Tho modern girl undoubtedly needs
more leisure.
Tho nrt of assimilation Is whnt will
mnko n girl Into the competent, self
reliant woman who will bo nblo to en
Joy applying what she has learned to
any circumstance sho may find herself
In. ono who will be nblo to regard nil j
forms of athletics In their proper pro
portion nnd not become morbid If she
Jj withdrawn from their Influence.
Ono cannot qunrrel wlfh games as n
deans of exercise If they nrp not car
ried to tho extreme, but that seems to
a great oxtcnt to bo Just tho tendency
of tho schoolgirl's training.
Consequently eduenfors are begin
ning to see tho advantage of giving
girls proper cxerclso by means of prac
tical work. Thero la n satisfaction In
It that cannot find n counterpart In
fffimcs.
Tho Hay Pillow.
"I wish mothers would, first of nil,
throw away those feather pillows and
wool mattresses which their children
lecp on nnd substitute bolsters nnd
beds of hay. It would cost only nbout
10 cents, and think of tho wonderful
relief," remarked n well known physi
cian. "The profuso perspiration of n
child nt night would bo done nwny
with. Children should not be roasted
night nftor night ns they are The
hay is cool and sweet smelling, and
the child couldn't do anything but
Icep comfortnbly.
'Tho mothers could get long tufting
seedles nnd tuft the hay so It wouldn't
form In mounds or slice to one end
completely. It would be a good thing
It grownups nlso tried It. Once tinv
lng experimented with It they never
would pass through nnothcr hot wnvo
without It- It is hygenlc, cooling, aro
matic. It Is an easy matter tocHtnbllsb

"On hot nights n child Rhould bo
wrapped In n wet sheet, with cold com
presses on his head. It would save
film great discomfort"

Ono Mn Who Dared to Dliobey HU
Imperial Mauler.
The diary of Potiuile du la Sllmutle
(born 17M). died In ISitti. recently
translated Into English, has something
about Napoleon, that remarkable mnn
who continues to bo the most Interest
ing figure In European history Here
Is one nbout Napoleon's nirelessncss
In dress and what came of It:
In 1SI0. when Napoleon went to
Complegno to receive Marie Louise, his
sister, tho Princess llorgheso said to
him:
"Your clothes are badly cut nnd do
not fit you. You are so obstinate about
not wearing braces your trousers nl
ways look ns If they were falling off"
"Well," answered the emperor,
"what do you advise me to do about
It? Can you recommend another
tailor?"
"Have a talk with Constant."
Conntnnt, the emperor's valet, was
sent for nnd named ono Legcr, who
was tailor to Murat, Prince Kugene.
Joseph nnd Jerome Honnparto. A mes
senger was sent to summon him, and
he nrrlved nt Complegno the next day.
From that moment he made every
thing Napoleon wore. Ho consistently
Ignored his Imperial patron's sugges
tions concerning his clothes. I-'or In
stance tho emperor wished tho skirts
or his tunics to be turned back, like
thoso vt Frederick the Ureal. "1
should not think of allowing such n
thing, sire! You would look absurd,
and my reputation would be lost. Tho
eyes of tho whole world nre upon your
majesty, nnd If you were seen wear
ing such n uniform as you propose it
would bo a disadvantage to you, and I
should have to bear the blame. I
would not make you such a tuulc If
you offered mo tho whole of your empire."

How to Stencil Rag Rugs.
Ilnvo you thought that rag rugs can
bo made Ihlngs of beauty by stenciling
them? Taki a nig woven nil over of
while rags, for Instance: stenciled In
some conventional designs In a queer
blue or green, it becomes n fit cover
ing for your bedroom Hour, n really
charming and tmlquo bit of furnish
lng, Another pretty variety Is the rag rug
made of all sorts of bright colors,
Moven without respect lo design nnd
then finished with n stencil border of
some solid Imrmonlr.lng color.
Colors should be bought In the raw
tint nnd then diluted to the shade de
sired with white lead or common whlto
paint. The Inner Is better, ns the lin
seed oil In it sets the color and makes
the rug washable

Cr. of the Baby's Feet.
Too much cam cannot bo given the
baby's feet. The little child's foot Is
naturally pretty, but It Is so soft and
pliant that It In easily molded, and nn
ill fitting, badly made shoe will only
too quickly deform It nnd twist It out
of shape. Tho shoes, regardless of
whether they nre buttoned or laced,
must not bo too tightly fastened or tho
circulation of tho blood will bu Imped
ed. It Is n good plan In summer to al
low the baby to go barefoot as much
of tho tlmo ns possible about tho home.
This allows tho foot to grow naturally.
