PROBLEMS MANY YEARS OLD

Children of Today Puzzle Over Them Juat as They DM a Thousand Years Ago. "When King Alfred the Great was reigning over England, a thousand years ago, school children pondered ®y®r problems In arithmetic much as °ur boys' and girls do now. Here are two taken word tor word from a lesson book of that day: “The swallow once Invited the snail to dinner. He lived Just one league (three English miles) from the spot, and the snail traveled at the rate of only one inch a day. How long ■would it be before he dined?" “An old man met a child. “Goodday, my son,’ he said. “May you live as long as you have lived, and as much more, and thrice as much as all this; and If God gives you one year m addition to the others, you will be a century old!' What was that boy*a age?"—The Comrade.

HOW A DOCTOR CURED SCALP DISEASE “When I was ten or twelve years old I had a scalp, disease, something like scald head, though it wasn’t that I suffered for several months, and most of my hair came out Finally they had a doctor to see me and he recommended the Cutlcura Remedies. They cured me In a few weeks. 1 have used the Cutlcura Remedies, also, for a breaking out on my hands and was benefited a great deaL I haven’t had any more trouble with the scalp disease.

Wee Anita was listening to a story of the Johnstown flood. “What made It?” she asked. “Oh, the dam broke," replied grandma.

The small child’s finer summer raiment Is set aside for the moment, the chief thought now being for the little one's comfort. In the country and at the seashore the tiny frocks and suits worn by baby lads and lasses are all of a tub sort and every style permits as much bare skin being seen as Is possible.

DELICATE POINT At ISSUE

Whether Quest or Hostess Should Maks First Move for Retiring for the Night. Until the end of time It will probably be a mooted question whether guest or hostess should make the first move for retiring for the night. When staying in a house for the first time this is one of the most difficult points for a guest to decide, and It takes a great deal of tact and discernment to arrive at a correct conclusion. In the sammer house at country or seashore the chances are, If the host goes to town for business every day, that the whole household is uf> early. The hostess Is certainly, as a rule, If her husband is a business man. In that case It is almost essential that they go to bed early. Logical as this conclusion may seem, a guest fears to suggest going too early to her own room, lest she should seem to be bored during the evening', and thus it is, when both really wo.uld like to turn In at a reasonable hour, they and others are kept up by a desperate attempt to be polite. If any rule of procedure may be laid down for a stranger in the house It Is to find out, as soon as possible, at what time breakfast Is served- and when the host goes to town. It Is -a safe method, if he goes early, and especially if breakfast Is served for all at an early hour, to suggest retiring by ten o'clock at the' latest, and in more than one household in the summer the same people who turn night Into day in the winter go to their rooms by nine o’clock In the evening. It Is better for guests to err on the side of going too soon than too late, for nothing will make strangers more unpopular than to overturn the comfortable habits of the household. Host and hostess are not required to go* to their own rooms because guests may have retired to theirs, but they are obliged to stay up If the stranger makes no move to retire. It is by no means difficult, even for a person making a first visit, to suggest retiring. She may say that she Is tired from having been so much out of doors, or that the heat is rather trying, or any other such simple excuse as may come into her mind, and declare that she would like to retire. She makes her good-nights then at once, and the host and hostess are at liberty to follow their usual customs.

of the floral trimmings the combinations are used for both sexes. But if the boy is at an big—4 years old or over—his masculinity requires the banding on his little wash suit or rompers to be in a plain color—a blue striping on white, or white on. blue or brown. The colors that give most refreshment to the eye are chosen over others, and this hint of coolness inn white, blue and apple-blossom pink admirably supply. Linen canvas crash, which la a very cool material, la much used for the smartest of the boys' suits, these made often In cunning sailor style* with or without shields as the mother likes. For everyday play suits the dark blue cottons, such as chambray and galatea, are much used, these responding very satisfactorily to white trimmings. A girl's play frocks and aprons may be in the same serviceable materials, but for afternoon dimity, handkerchief linen and white lawn are employed with suitable trimming; even if the model is the same as that used for the play frock In fact, as far as the summer child’s get-up la concerned, it Is Almost entirely a matter of material, ror the least little change In a mode] will make It suitable for all texture* The little slip dress Illustrated may be worn belted or loose, and It is anottier model that can be turned Into an apron by merely opening It down the full length of the back The little frock Is one of the paper doll styles—as the models with Bleeves cut In one are sometimes called—and It is suited to either boys or girls of the baby age* Here the attractive little get-up is of coarse white linen with a hnnAiwj In pale apple green and white, but U may be made of the simplest cotton and self-trimmed. If It is to be for rough wear. Where it is to be a finer garment, something, say, needed for a very hot afternoon In town, try making It of pale tan or white rajah or pongee. In this shape, with stitched bands of the same, and bloomers and underbody. matching; there could be nothing cooler for the child who frets with the heat. The 2-year-old would need two yards of pongee or rajah In the usual width.

Latect In Petticoats.

Dress underskirts are of fine muslin or batist* Lace 1b more used In trimming than embroidery, all trimmings being neat rather than elaborate. Allover embroidery, cambric cluny, torchon and honitaa edgings and Insertions are best Under wash dresses, colored lawn, chambray and batiste petticoats are most popular. These are embroidered in white, wjth white lace insertions and colored ribbon beading* Among novelties are white muslin petticoats with a flounce, reaching to the knees, embroidered in color nmj finished with a beading run with ribbon of the same shad*

TEA GOWN

This Is quite simple, and Is made up In silk spotted nun's veiling. A ribbon taken just above the waist gives an Empire effect; this draws the fulness in, which then falls straight to the end of the slight train, long ends of ribbon are taken from under the waist ribbon at sides, they are then tied in a big bow at the right hand eorner at back; lace-edged ribbon is carried over the shoulders; the sleeves are also finished with lace. Materials required: 6 yards voile 42 Inches wide. 6% yards ribbon. 4% yards lace.

Globular Lightning.

Yesterday the inhabitants of Lewisham were provided with a specimen of that curious phenomenon known as “globular lightning." It is what is commonly called the “fire ball." and as It persists for several seconds It Is obviously of a-totally different character from any other form of lightning. It is much less brilliant than ordinary lightning, and its brightness appears to be that of Iron at the “red hot” stag* * It Is not, as some accounts might lead one to Infer, a solid missile, but It is always spherical and appears to fall from a thunder cloud by its own gravity, sometimes rebounding after striking the ground.—London Glob*

When the Fish Exploded.

Somebody discovered that fish are fond at gasoline, and this led to the idea of soaking worms in gasoline in order to make them more alluring when used for bait. Mark the result. Two of those gasolinetempted fish exploded in the frying pan, and broke the kitchen window, and blew the cook's faoe full of mashed potato, and hurled the teakettle into the flour barrel, and painted the kitchen oeiling with stewed tomatoes. Call it a lying world and let it go at that.

A Liking for "Hamlet"

"Do you like Hamlet?" asked the hostess of her unlettered, if gushing, guest “Indeed X do," ws the reply. "X am excessively fond of It, but I always prefer a savory to a sweet on*” There was a momentary confusion, and then the hostess realized that the admiration of the guest was of a culinary, not literary, character. "I gave her ham with an omelette for breakfast next morning,” said the hostess, when telling the story.— Scrap*

Active Possession.

Guinevere, aged four, was going out to walk with a young lady, of whom she was very fond. As they mxmad the street door they were met by a swirling cloud of dust, blown up from the thoroughfare. “Keep your lips tightly dosed, Gwen, or you'll get Your lungs full of mi. crobes,” warned the young lady. Guinevere pondered a moment and then, looking up, demanded: “What are your crobee?"—National Monthly.
