WHEN A CHILD IS TOO PALE.
The average healthy child has elear skin and rosy ohueks, the indication that good red blood is flowing in its veins. When the child looks pule the grown-ups around very rightly begin to wonder what nila it. It is natural for a robust child to have colour in its cheeks, and when they are pale it is general- ly an indication that all is not well with it. As a rule, this is not the only warning signal, but capricious appetite and a general air of list lesanésa is clear sign that the little one is holow par. Ostermalt, given in small, regular daily doses over a period of, say, two or threo monthe, will soon bring about a ro- markable change for the botter. This tonic benefits any child. wbo is not thriving, and a pale, flabby, under-nourished child soon becomes

SUN-BATHING HINTS.

Sun-bathing is, however, a, much trickier business than many people realise. It needs, in the first place, careful preliminary treatment of the parts of the body meant to be ex- posed.

The magis word "ensemble" has now invaded the lingerie world, and the smart ideal is to have your "dessous" to follow exactly tho line of your frocks, as well as to harmonise in colour. Of course, it would be lovely to have special lingerie set apart for overy frock and auit in one's wardrobe, but it's not in the least necessary. With little compromise here and there you can bring everyday lingerie into line with the new ideal, and spend less on it than girls who collect a large assortment of undies which have no connec tion with the clothes that go top. Colour is really less important now than line, but you can easily got both details right. Think first of the neck and waistlines when choosing lingerie patterns.
