After receiving her instructions she started in with a vim and was rapidly filling her salesbook with accounts of many a ribbon sale. "If this ribbon is mailed out im mediately, do you think it will reach this out-of-town customer by morn ing?" she inquired of a fellow clerk. Miss Towle's fellow workers are delighted with the manner in which she has taken hold of the "job" and her avidity to learn. It bears out a reputation Miss Towle has among her friends for energy and ability. Miss Towle was expected to make her debut this winter, as far sister. Miss Marion, did last year, hut this individualistic young woman decided to nostpone her debut and to spend another winter studying in New York. As the Indian names scattered by thousands throughout Ihe United States give a tone to American geographical nomenclature, so Indian art, as exhibited in color combina tions, ornamental designs, weaving bradwork and pottery, has a similar influence on our art products. One may spend many delightful and instructive hours in the Ameri can Museum of Natural History studying the collections represent ing the red man's achievements in the expression of hit ideas of beauty and proportion. The utilization of these as suggestive aids in the de velopment of a more distinctvely American style has only just he- ?:un, but it can evidently be carried ar. The character of the Indian shines forth in his art. It is grave, re strained, simple, and yet bold. It accords with nature, but reproduces her underlying, motives rather than her superficial appearances. It is not imitative of details, but it catches the broad spirit of its model. Its conventional forms show both im agination and a sense of harmony. As Miss Esther A. Coste points out, the Indian artists showed themselves very versatile in their use of so limited a material as that at their disposal. Religious symbolism was the basis of most of their designs.

These photographs are reproduced by permission of the Amer ican Museum of Natural History. hear the legends explaining some of these we call them childish, but the designs themselves are not affected by that judgment, since we appreciate them for their own qualities as ar tistic creations. The soft, subdued. admirably harmonised. colors awaken admiration in and for themselves. The shapes and figures excite the fancy as do the quaint designs cov ering an oriental rug. For us the religious ideas that inspired the mak ers, and the original possessors of these things have evaporated, but the Sugar bowl decorated with motive found on a beaded belt made by Sarsi Indians. beauty, harmony and proportion they retain are as effective as ever. A great collection of Indian art is a storehouse of ideas, motives and sug gestions, and the use that can be made of it is shown in the photo graphs herewith. Not only are these designs suggestive for all woven work, textiles and needle work, but decorators and painters of every kind may find them useful. Miss Coste says that some of the tribes had a fretwork as beautiful as the classic Greek form. There are hundreds of designs that can be imitated with splendid effect in border work, enpeheting, embroid ering, etc, The beauty of the Navajo blankets is known everywhere, and it is a great credit to a tribe unfamiliar with white civilization to have pro duced a form of art work that white men have set themselves to imitate. Such imitation is a kind of apology to the original artists for having called them barbarians or savages. Many of the Indian weaving pat terns are very beautiful as well as original. The red artists have shown the depth of their genius in adapting the mechanism put into their hands by the whites to their artistic ideas instead of adapting the ideas to the machines. Indian bead-work is fa mous all over the world. Pueblo pottery is another form of native In dian art that comes to us like a seed full of germinal power. Both the shapes and colors employed are val uable models. Among the uses that have already been made of these suggestions from the red man's mind are the decoration of tableware, parlor tables, stands, cups and saucers, bowls, pitchers, candlesticks, work tables, trays, mugs, match boxes, pepper pots, bed room furniture and many other things. We are doing a little belated justice to the original possessors of our continent when, with proper ac knowledgment of its source, we turn the current of their artistic tradition into the broader channel which our life affords. It is an inheritance from them which we are just beginning to appre ciate. It will give the tinge to our art, as the Susquehanna river takes a tittle richer color from the darker waters of the Lackawanna. Be an Individual in the Race of Life By BEATRICE FAIRFAX. Animals huddle together for warmth or protection, but human beings have to meet their crises alone. They have to, whether they like it or not The Scotch say: "Each of us maun dree his ain weird." And there lies the whole matter in a nutshell. Our sorrows, our joys all of our experiences, in fact befall us as in dividuals and no one can share them with us. A little girl I know used to say whenever she was told, "Children don't do that," and "Little girls al ways do this." , "Yts, but I'm a per son."

One has simply to be con scious of the two things and not to subordinate one to the other. There is no better illustration of this than the foolish way we all "hud dle" in the cars. People come rushing along and crush and scramble and endure the utmost discomfort just be cause it doesn't occur to them to sep arate themselves from the crowd. Watch for yourself some dav. See one man or woman after another run ning down the stairs and attaching himself or herself to the fringes of the central group waiting in a subway station. A few people walk to the forward or rear end of the platform, but most individuals seem almost magnetized into attaching themselves to the central group. In life the Deonle who oret on. who amount to somthing, are not those who are lost in tne central group of the ordinary and average, but those rather .who have the courage to sep arate themselves and seek out places where they can assert their own per sonality. One doesn't gain success by trying to find a foothold on the ladder of success at the exact point where a group is already struggling. The ladder of success is wide. There is room for numberless people there on, but they have to find their own places. Studying yourself as an individual, finding your own points of difference and seeking progress along individual lines separated from great mass movements, is the real way to assure yourself of success in forging ahead. Remember that "you are a person" that your experience may be similar to everyone else's, that your desires may be simply ,world-old repetitions of human nature, that your sorrows and tribulationa are oft-repeated stories but that in spite of all this they are for the time being yours I This means that you haven't the right to force a description of them on anyone else and that you cannot expect anyone else to enter into them and share them fully.

Fruit and Vegetable Pickle By CONSTANCE CLARKE, in spite of the good quality of all kinds of manufactured preserves, most housewives cling to the idea that home-made preserves are the best. The following recipe for a delicious fruit and vegetable pickle is easily prepared. " Peel, . core and cut up twelve medium-sized apples. Remove the stones from a pound of dates, and boil the two in a quart oi vinegar until tender. Then add three cups of brown sugar, one-half ounce of ground ginger, two cloves of garlic, six medium-sized tomatoes, one cup of seedless raisins, one teaspoonfui of salt and mustard, and one pound of dried apricots. The apricots should be soaked and cut into small pieces before they are added. Put in jars while hot, and cover when cold. Tomorrow Roast Capon with Cream .... Gravy. After Treatment of Infantile Paralysis BY WOODS HUTCHINSON, M. D. ,There are disadvantages in being young as well as in being old. One of the most perplexing and pitiable things about the after-treatment of infantile paralysis is just that it is "in fantile," that its little victims are young, very young. This means that they have completed only about a fourth of their growth and a tenth of their muscular education, and paraly sis at this stage means not only loss of power, but deformity and grave dis turbance of balance. In fact, paradoxical as it may sound, the most serious cause of trouble in some cases is not that the palsied limb or paralyzed muscle will not grow, but that the opposite limb and the other groups of muscles will keep on grow ing along with the rest of the body. For instance, one little leg is para lyzed, or half paralyzed, so that it can only move about half as actively and vigorously as the other; the little one walks with a limp, and for several months, even if no improvement oc curs, get about fairly well. Then sud denly one day the parents notice that the limp seems to be getting worse, although the paralyzed limb is no wgaker, and when the tape measure is placed alongside it is discovered to be half or three-quarters of an inch shorter than the sound limb. This, of course, is not because th weakened limb has shrunk or grown shorter, but simply that it hasn't grown at the same rate as the healthy limb. And, unfortunately, the older and taller the child grows, the more marked becomes the relative shorten ing of the crippled leg. A pitiful il lustration of the bitter scriptural para dox, "Unto him that hath shall be given, but from him that hat not, shall be taken away even that which he hath." So that ultimately the poor little victim has often to add to the legitimate labor of the half-paralyzed muscles the weight of a box-soled, "club-foot" shoe, or even steel stirrup, or other mechanical apparatus for lengthening it to match the other limb. Or if one group of muscles only in an arm or leg is affected, those that straighten it or extend it, for instance, then the undamaged muscles which Advice to Lovelorn By Beatrice Fairfax You Did the Bight Thing. Dar Mlsa Fairfax: 1 have met and had business dealings with a cashier In a bank, but have not beon Introduced to him, bul nave met him about a dosen times In all Last Sunday while taking a sail with three frlenda 1 met this man and bowed to him, but did not speak to him. Now, please tell me did I do wrong In noticing him, er should I have Ignored hlmT My friends think X acted In an unladylike way In bow ing to a man to whom 1 had never been Introduced. He simply lifted his hat and smiled In return. Al.ICG R. What you did was the proper and courteous thing. There was nothing undignified in it, and no man with the instincts of a gentleman could possi bly have misinterpreted your attitude. Any man with whom a woman has continuous business dealings is an acquaintance and she should always recognize him when she meets him on the street This applies to employes in your office and clerks who wait upon you over and over again, as well as to a man you meet through deal ings in a bank.

Will you kindly tell me If It waa wrong, my case that he la handling being a dlvoros action. Ho haa never asked me to go any other plaoe with him. Will you kindly advise me in the -matter as a friend of mine says It la not at all proper. Thera waa absolutely nothing Improper In what you did. Lunching with your at torney in public could scarcely rouse Just criticism from even the most formal minded people, since even they would recognize the probability that you were discussing bus iness matter.

' bend the limb will over-pull the weakened group opposing them and gradually bend the limb in their direc tion until it becomes permanently crooked and drawn up. So that the problem of combatting the paralysis is not merely that of keeping the paralyzed muscles alive and moving, but also that of preventing the un paralyzed muscles or fellow limb from pushing or pulling them over to one side or outgrowing them. This is only one illustration of the many complexities and perplexities of the after-treatment of poliomyelitis. Whoever undertakes to treat it must l:ave clearly in mind a perfect and accurate picture, first, of the exact damage done and the point in the cord involved; second, of the chan nels through which repair and im provement may be hoped to come, and third, of what the natural growth of the rest of the limb and body will do to the damaged muscles in the way of overgrowing thein and dis turbing them and disturbing the bal ance by racing ahead. ' FranUy, it is no job for a family physician or a general practitioner; it requires an expert knowledge and training, such as can only be fairly expected of a specialist in children's diseases, expert assistants and nurses to carry out the treatment, which is largely "by hand." by that best of all orthopedic appliances and "batter ies," the skilled human fingers, and a considerable equipment of ex pensive apparatus, gymnastic, electric and therapeutic. The health depart ment is overwhelmingly right in de claring that hospital treatment is the only adequate and most hopeful care for the at least three to five thou sand little cripples who will be left in the wake of this epidemic, and the admirable movement of Mr. Hearst to found and equip a special hospital to take care of these little human derelicts will be a public serv ice and a clear-sighted humanity of the highest timeliness and value. Especially in view of the fact that at least nine-tenths of the little victims are from a class which is utterly unable to afford the consultations and skilled nursing and month, and even year-long, after-treatment and attention which this disease abso lutely demands.
