If milk puddings were a little less milky and a little more creamy, they'd be a lot more popular.

Now, milk puddings made with Milkmaid Evaporated Milk, which is rich, pure concentrated dairy milk - these are not everyday puddings, though you can have them every day. These are puddings not to be "got through", but puddings that invite a second helping and sometimes a third.

Your Children.

[By Olive Roberts Barton.}

Do you say to the children: "Now don't tell Mrs. Smith where

you got that dress, Mary. If she asks you about it, just say you don't know"...."Be sure you tell Mr. Brown that you think Dad's. gone on a business trip, Billy. Hel doesn't need to know that Dad took | a day off to go to town with me.”

One day I watched a little girl getting ready for a party. As her

mother slipped on the pretty little cream alpaca coat and it's small matching chapeau, kissed her

child, handed her the ribbon-tied tissue wrapped present, she, asked suddenly, "What'll I say, er?"

Moth-

Say? Why just 'How do you do, Mrs. Jones. I'm so glad to come to the party."

No-But what'll I say? When went to Kitty Long's party 'I talk. ed all wrong, you said. The ladies asked me "

"Oh, I know! You told all the family secrets, didn't you!"

She smiled at me.

.

"Well, what'll 1-say? I never know what to tell them because' you get cross."

"I won't get cross this time, dear. Just say anything you like."

I wasn't there when the small mias returned, but I knew very well that if she'd been called down before for being naturál and telling the truth, the chances were she'd be called down again. It set me to thinking about this basi- ness of older people, with their ensy conversational adjustments, and their feeling of justification in side-stepping facts, expecting young minds, to use the same ma-

The frock pictured on the left of printed chiffon in rose, beige and brown shows an effective cape treat. ment and a skirt formed of inverted box pleats. The centre sketch is a charming combination of lace and chiffon. Rose beige chiffon forms the skirt and lower part of the bodice. The deep yoke of silk thread lace is put together by bands of valenciennes lace and fine hand-run tucks. The dress on the right illustrates an aqua marine georgette with a charming motif achieved entirely by fine hand-run tucks.
