it is one of her characteristics. but
every one in the cafe is not aware of
this fact, and put it down to aggres-
siveness or boidness. At the best it
attracts attention and not favora bic
attention at that
This completely settles her forever,
for loudness is the great crime in the
masculine category of feminine sins.
George may forgive Maud for gowning
herself in fiaring red and literally
soaking herself in peau d'espagne, but
he resents loud talking as much or
more as cat resents having his fur
suddenly brushed the wrong way. His
vanity Is mortally wounded and he is
furious all the way through.
Perhaps he tries TO hurry her so
that he may escape the amused STAR
ing of. his acquaintances. but the more
he tries to settle up and evaporate
into thin air the more she dallies and
the more she entertains the onlookers
by jabbering like a veritable magpie
at the tiptop of her voice.
All these little scenes are real trage@
dies, because they mean so much more
than is represented on the face OF
them. When he bites his lips to keep
back the words Of annoyance that are
ready TO bubble over she perks UP and
imagines it jealousy and prances and
plumes until he would be only too
glad to crawl through a knothole and
pull ii after him.
For, let me tell you right here. no
man enjoys having the woman beside
him ogled. it's quite true, he may
turn about and stare at a we'll
gowned woman as she walks down the
street, but then it's different when he
does ii. you know, and besides. he tells
himself that he really means to be
complimentary.
Really, girls who possess brothers
are the lucky ones after all, for if they
have little day dreams Of loveliness
and captivating powers. they are
rudely broken by For heavens sake,
Mary, can't you walk along the streets
without grinning at every man you
see? I'd keep quiet If l couldn't do
freak of myself"
Charming politeness, isn't it? But
then that is what You expect of your
own family and it would be a severe
shock IL such frankness was not forth
coming. But polite or not polite, such
straight talk is q mighty good thing
to be passed about occasionally, for it
frequently brings you out Of your
trance and certainly forever ruins
your cherished hallucinations. One
thing is certain, if your brother praises
you for this, that or the other thing,
you may take it for all it is worth, for
where he criticizes nine times he
praises but once and then he means
every word of it.
But even with all their bluntness
they're not so bad after all. for way
down deep in her heart every woman
hates TO make spectacle of herself.
It's true she may resent the fashion in
which he tramps rough shod over her
dignity, but it's kindly meant and he
is only awkwardly trying to help her
acquire good old-fashioned manners"

SOCIAL CALLS (Doubtful). - A
first call should be returned within
ten days; after that you may regulate
calls as best suits your convenience
and the degree of intimacy you desire
TO maintain. Remember, however,
that 1t is always best not TO be too
hasty In social matters-no rwell-bred
woman rushes hastily into a friend
ship which she may regret later on.
Avoid being too cordial until you are
satisfied that the acquaintance is likely

fault Is with the figure, which may be

abdomen, or the fault may be In the
manner of standing. Stand correctly
chest out and shoulders level and erect.
If no Improvement In the set of the
skirt is noted. carefully rip of the belt,
across the front gore and about half
way back on the side cores, then slip
on the skirt and pin the belt at the
back correctly to hold up the skirt.
Allow the top edge of. the skirt to fall
below the loose belt about one inch in
middle OF top edge of front gore. and
carefully note If the fault Is improved.
If so you may be sure the skirt is cut out
too much at the top to fit your figure.
To remedy the fault carefully baste
piece of firm cambria or taffeta under

top of the side-gores. Basic the belt
on again allowing the additional length
to be greater exactly in center of front

girdle or simulate yoke with bands OF
trimming.
OAT MEAL (Eleanor) The So
called simple dish of oat meal becomes
a nightmare, as it is usually prepared,
and the haphazard methods employed
In cooking most cereals are largely re-
sponsible for the many failures and
account for many of the jeers we hear
concerning breakfast foods. 1 am not
booming breakfast foods to use q
common expression. but am simply en-
deavoring to show how, by proper
preparation, cereals may be made to
add greatly to the value Of our daily
meals. The common, ordinary oat-
meal such as may be bought in bulk
at any grocer's requires thorough cook
ing to be digestible and paIatable and
nutritious: not the usual one or two
hours of boiling. but four or Ave hours
of slow simmering with the least pos
sible stirring. This will give one
plumb grains. almost as separate as
the grains of well-cooked rice. The
sticky mass, so repulsive to the fasti-
dious taste, Is the result of careless
cooking and much stirring. To obtain
the best results in cooking oatmeal a
double boiler is essential: ii prevents
scorching. My recipe, which is suff-
cient for six persons, is as follows:
Take two teacupfuls Of oatmeal and a
teaspoon even full OF salt. Put into

BITING THE LIPS (Jean).-Poets
and artists sing of the light that lies
in woman's eyes" but every one will
agree that even a plain face is re-
deemed by g. well-shaped mouth. which.
next to the eyes, registers clearly the
varied moods of the human face: II
behooves women, therefore. to make
the most of this feature. Having form
ed the habit of biting the lips from
nervous excitement or any passing
emotion, only a determined effort on
your part can overcome the habit. II
continued it will surely make the lips
thick and coarse. The reason for this
is obvious. The pressure and knead-
ing motion of the teeth on the lips
act almost exactly like massage and
particularly SO II cold cream is applied
to allay any irritation of the skin: then
and the result is inevitable. To avoid
elf-consciousness, which might result
If you attempted to think of the fault
continually, dab the lips with some
harmless bitter solution to act as a
reminder Quinine is suggested. Dis
solve two grains of quinine in a small
phial OF water and apply with brush
or bit of cotton; dab some on the index
finger-nail, which you nibble when per-
picked. Continue the application daily
until the habit is broken.
MISTAKES OF THE JOLLY GIRL
(Gladys). The, jolly, all-round girl Is
the dearest creature in the world and
as welcome everywhere as sunshine
provided she does not carry her jollity
to excess. If several of your best
friends have complained that you are
too jolly, fear you have allowed your
high spirits to lead you into some ways
that are annoying to others. While it
may have hurt your pride to be criti-
cized. it has caused you to think, and to
think is the surest way to learn. While
self examination may not be altogether
fiattering, 1t will clearly show where
the most glaring faults lie and, like a
sensible girl. you will profit by the dis
covery. For very gladness, the jolly
girl sometimes forgets to greet her
friends with quiet cordiality, but
lapses into rather boisterous effusive-
ness; again. from very exuberance the

RED NOSE (Unhappy).-The skin
of the nose is very sensitive and sure
to herald every physical disturbance,
no matter from what cause. The wear
Ing of tight clothing, nervousness and
dyspepsia are all Indicated in the skin
of the nose. Morbidness is frequently
the cause Of the skin on the nose be-
coming coarse and the pores clogged.
Consult your physician and obtain re-
lief from the bilious attacks to which
you are subject: build UP your system
by plain and nourishing food, cutting
out the liberal supply of sweets in
which you now indulge. Exercise
freely out out of doors and sleep In a
well ventilated room. Cleanse the
stomach each morning by drinking a
pint, if possible, of hot water half an
hour before breakfast, which will has

nose and to reduce the color dust
lightly with a good toilet powder. At
night treat the nose and the rest Of
the face as we'll to a warm bath, fol-
lowed by cold water dabbled over the
face with the hands or small velvet
sponge; then gently massage the face,
giving special attention to TIE nose
and lastly apply tonic lotion. A de-
lightful tonic is made by mixing one
half pint, each of rosewater, witch
hazel and sixty drops of simple tine
ture of benzoin. This will strengthen,
whiten and relieve the sensitive condi-
tion of the skin and may be freely
used two or three times each day.
TO RELIEVE SOFT CORNS Ella).-
Immediate relief from the torture OF
a soft corn between the toes can only
be gained by removing all pressure on
the corn. This is most readily ac-
complished by placing q wad of cot
ton between the toes to keep them
apart; but more convenient appli-
ance is the corn plaster sold at any
drug store Those in the form Of a
ring of adhesive plaster fit nearly
around the corn and keep the pressure
off the most sensitive part. AS soft
corns are the outgrowth of dampness
as well as Of pressure. it is of the ut
