It is, Indeed, a difficult task to arrange the hair of the little firl who la outgrow ing the bob. Of course, for a few months there Is really nothing that can be done with It, eicept to hare patience and give It attention, brush In, a little vaseline rubbed Into the scalp and massage to help along the growth. After the hair begins to get straggly Is the lime when the mother has her hands full. Shall It be hair ribbons or middle? These are some of the ex periments that ahe will' have to make before ahe can decide on any one way to fix the little girl s stubborn Was. children with regular features. CALLOPINO. If done properly, of fers an extremely sensible and at the same time attractive method of finishing off the simpler kind of lingerie. But the scallops must be firm or they will offer opportunity for a tear between every two scallops. The best way to insure this flrmnesa Is to do the scalloping through two thicknesses of material, cutting away the extra thickness when the scallops are trimmed off.

There should be a neat finishing too at the It Is a mistake to let a child's hair hang for school or play, unless a moth er has plenty of time to give It the at tention It needs. When the hair Is al lowed to get too tangled during the day It la ruinous to Its future glory to pull out snarls at night with a comb. On the other hand, very few little girls are seen with their hair all braided up tight and out of the way. For the mnst part It is si lowed to bang partly, and to be caught up In some way or other with a ribbon or bar ren, the latter proving really more secure and practical tor everyday wear. When a ribbon Is chosen for the lit tle girl nowadays It la very likely to be narrow and tied around the head In a fillet with a bow and ends on the side.

The real of the hair Is braided and caught with another smaller bar rette near the ends. . Two partings are uaed for the other arrangement, but the bobs are not so exaggerated. The middle portion Is rolled Into something like a French twist, and a few bangs are left to fill up the outline of rather high fore bead. The hair may be left hanging In back or braided as In the other ar rangement Bometlmea It can be mere ly caught again with a second barrette without braiding It at all.

A word about eurla. Dont force them on' your 'little girl If her hair has no tendency to curl. Time enough when she baa grown older to Initiate her Into curlers and wavea. Now let her take pride In having her balr even and glossy. Clip the ends to keep the hair of even length and take her to a specialist occasionally for a good singeing. One of the photographs shows a very stunning way to arrange straight hair that will prove Itself sur prisingly becoming unless the face Is too aauare or round.

THE MAN WITHOUT EXEMIES. HEN a good man dies, his friends like to say that "he had not an enemy in the world." They intend it at a compliment, but it isn't In the first place, it isn't true. No man ever lived who had not an en emy. If he had no other, he was an , enemy to himself. But if it were true, it still would be no compliment A man without an enemy would be a nonentity. No man who ever accomplished any thing, who stood firm-footed for a prin ciple, who defended a belief, who built up an enterprise or benefited a comun ity, did it without creating enemies. All progress makes for enmities, and the measure of a man's usefulness quite often is the nature of the enemies he has acquired. If the world had been peopled by "men who have not an enemy in the world," the, world today would be as it was when it was created. But for the men who have made ene mies by standing for progress and im provement, we would still be wearing fig leaves in the tropics and bear skins in the Arctics. About the only good thing which can be said of some men is thst they hsve made bitter enemies. But at that they have achieved more than the man who has none, for even the enmity they have engendered has stirred other men to greater effort. The "man without an enemy" is use ful only as an ornament. O For Rubbing Pumps PUMPS, the best fitting of them, will slip at times, causing un due annoyance in wearing out stockings before their time, and in wearing put one's heels aa well. Who has not experienced the pain of heel rubbing shoes? Here is one way to eliminate the heel rubbing problem. Use a healing salve on the heel if ii is at all sore snd then apply a good old-fashioned bunion plaster to tlw' troublesome spot. The plsster serves the double purpose of preventing fur ttier soreness snd to some extent stopping the slipping. a friends In this way: She asked them to come to a porch tea at her house. When they had all arrived ahe brought out a huge tray piled high with balls of colored yarn, paased them about When every one had a ball ahe gave each one one of those spools that children knit reins over and told them to go ahead and knit up her balL The balls had each been wound of a different length of wool, eo they would not all finish at the same time, and there wasn't enough yarn in them to make the task tedious. The girl who finished found a tiny white slipper In the center of her ball filled with rice. The next girl found a little round box containing a molasses kiss done up In pink paper. Next came a bisque Cupid, a little china turtle dove, each girl discovering some little true-love em blem. Of course, the hostess was the last to reach her favor, which waa her ring ta a box. After the party the spools with more worsted were sent to the children's ward In the hospital. for this trig little garment, the under thickness can be cut away after the buttonholing has been worked through the two. The petticoat la a triumph ta potnta. The whole effect la done by buttonhol ing, which is trimmed off only around the skirt edge. Dots are added and long eyelets through which a ribbon la run. The whole embroidery in thia Instance could be done la color. That's a clever idea, lent It; the chemise with the brassiere top on the seated figure?

The bottom of the chemise Is finished envelope style, the whole edge berag scalloped. The aidea of the chemise are cut Into tabs and Joined again with a button oa each aide Juat to break the monotony of the outline. And now we come to the nightgown, also scalloped along the edgea of Its cool handkerchief top. which fa fur ther embellished with a line of lace. Nightgowns have a way of being aleeveless nowadays so that the hand kerchief top, aa the pointed effect la called, la particularly good. Even the top of the gown Into which tha points are set is finished with a row of scallops and long eyelets through which the ribbon la run. 0 When making kitchen aprons sew pocket on wrong aide of apron.
