Thl* was in 1688, and every since, many a young girl has heard the formidable "Char acters” quoted—the reader can judge with what results. A bon mot of about the same period brings out In bold relief the effect of this practice A Turkish ambassador who visited Paris for the first time was asked by a newspaper reporter how he liked French women. The great statesman candidly admitted his Inability to express his opinion, because h# was a “poor Judge of paintings." At one time every l«dy carried a patch box with a mirror Inside of the lid, for beauty patches were the thing, and had to be often rearranged. Th1a was because patches had a language of their own and expressed, accord Ing to their place, size, or shape, varl I ous thoughts and desires. | Patches were believed to make ! persons look younger, and. with fash I Ion taking a leaf from the day# when they were etUl In vogue, w» may see j them conung back—Fairchild Fash !

You remem(>er how the •on of a Harvard professor of greet talent learned to read and write at 2 years old, entered Tufts college at 10 and Harvard at 11? A future as the most brilliant scholar of the ages was freely proph esied for young William Sidle. At 20 he is earning 123 a week by col lecting statistics and Inscribing them on the adding machine at which he sits, hour after hour, in a New York office. When the boy’s father held his small son’s wonderful attainments up to illustrate what might be done if ’’blind educators’’ were not allowed to dump rubbish in a child’s mind as if it were no better than a vacant lot,” he believed that the best sygtem yet found had proved its remarkable re sults, and that all the world would be following the educational trail which he had biased. The boy’s mother never wrote a brochure against educational methods of the 20th century. If she ever wished that her little son was more like the ’’human boy” Dickens pic tured, and less of a prodigy, there is no record of the fact. But somewhere on the road to one university or an other, this young student fell out of step with the great mass of man kind. When you read that he "wasn't Interested” in his father’s funeral last autumn, and that he "re mains aloof from his mother," you feel that the brilliant young brain throve at the expense of the boy's heart. There may be chapters of lonell ness and unrest between the lines of th# meager reoprd of thoa# collec* day*. With th# cruelty of youth, th# older bove may hare mocked the eeHoti* attainment# of 10-year-old SMls. Oenlus on a pinnacle 1# no l#«a unhappy. It would not be strange If the boy, feeling hie way through a eucceeelon of new experience rebelled against the burden of notoriety which his father'# educational experiments had fastened upon him. However that may be, many a genuine American boy who struggled with his spelling and multiplication tables, who epoke atrocious English where young Sidls had many lan guages at his tongue's end, and had ne\er heard of the fourth dlmenalon at the age when the boy-wonder was lecturing upon It before Harvard pro fet»Q£s—many such a redblooded, human youngster Is now, at 26, far ahead of the prodigy who must find life dull at an adding machine, and is certainly a loser In business, mor als and practical liveableness. Here's to the everyday boy, though his teaching may be faulty. While the heart beats warmly, the head may be trusted to learn better whjs of doing things and human sympa thies will prove a better guide over life's rough roads than scientifio formula*. j An ensemble of dress and sleeve less wrap developed In golden brown flat crepe was conspicuous at lunch eon time at one of the smart restau rants.
