YOUR CHILDREN.

[By Olive Roberts Barton.1

The privileges we take with our children is amazing,

The behaviour of parents as for as everyday politeness is concein- et leaves inach to be desired as general rule.

It is a fact that children. qute aniahly accept treatment from older. people that those very persups would not cutiritenance for stant from each other.

OF INTEREST.

Jade for Autumn Wear.

Jade is to be more popular than ever this autumn, and fashionable jewellers are using it in all sorts of original ways.

Never before, said a London Weat End jeweller in an interview, haro carved jade plaques been set as brooches, but this year they are so much in demand that we have to make them up inmediately on their arrival from China. and they seldran remain in the shop more than a few days. Some are used alone, others set with diamonds

An interesting fact which is not generally known about jade, he con- tiane, is that although it comes to Britain from China it is actually mino in Burma. Large pieces are sent to China, and auctioned there before being made up This is something of in gamble, as jade is so streaky that a piece which is the much-to-be-desired applegreen shade outside may be white ar even dis coloured within: while a hump el white "mutton fat" jade sometimes conceals a heart of purest green. This "mution fat jade is used for Carvings rather than for jewellery. There is also a type of jade that is actually smoky blue in colour, though it is technically known "Invender" jade.

Nothing reas bigger rewarda than politeness. It not only gets politeness in return, but it gets re- sults where other means fail.

That is why I think it is not only aufair to be rude with children but very, very foolish. A polite child usually means a polite parent and vice versa.
