Mrs. Frank Boon of Philadelphia
believes that walking and not talking
should be the chief amusement OF
American women. 1t is not that Mrs
Boon loves talking less. but that she
loves walking more. She's no crank
physical culturalist, either She's just
a healthy, normal American woman
who enjoys being fit" physically and
who finds walking the most agree
able of all exercises.
Mrs. Boon doesn't merely walk down
town for her morning marketing OF
afternoon shopping. No, indeed. She
does her five miles and ore every
day, and she is usually accompanied
on her rambles by members Of the
Martindale club, of which she is pre-
ident, peripatetic organization Of wo-
men exclusively.
The club and its president naturally
have attracted considerable attention
since they began their spring wan
derings. A rude newspaper woman ac-
companied them on one of their jaunts
the other day and learned, incidentally,
that there isn't a single member of
the club-or a. married one, either
who wears larger than a number four
shoe.
There arc several women's walking
organization is the pioneer. Their
motto is wake up and hike" The
clubs purpose to hold a convention
next fall-something in the nature Of
an experience meeting. And it will
be attended exclusively by walking
delegates.
Should married woman flirt? Lady
McLaren, prominent British suf-
H. !,
husband. However, it is quite possible
that Lady McLaren doesn't mean ex-
actlv what you think she means,
"Flirting," vou see. is rather an elias
tic term. TT can be made to stretch
over a multitude of peccadilloes. a
transgression or two and numerous in
dscretions, though Lady McLaren con-
tenn plates none of these things. She
is very much in the public eye just
now, is Lady McLaren. for she is au-
thor of what is known in England
as the "Woman's Charter" the nine
bills bearing on the liberties and rights
Of women which her husband, Sir
Charles McLaren. sponsored in the
house of commons. Therefore her
views on domestic filtration have been
regarded as worthy of serious consid-
GRAFTON.
Lady McLaren affirns her belief
that home Filtration is the secret OF
domestic bliss every man." she says,
wants a wife who is never too tired
to hook her froCk straight, wear
clean collar and laugh and flirt with
her husband" Evidently this should
read "every married man" Lady Nc
[ aren. you see. doesn't take the bache-
Iors into consideration. Perhaps she
doesn't regard them as worth while.
Flirting, she explains further, doesn't
mean affecting the kittenish airs and
graces of seventeen. 1t means merely
that the wife should flatter her hus-
band occasionally. tell him that he's
a good fellow and let him realize that
her love and affection are even
stronger than they were in their court
ship days. Judicious flirting-did you
ever hear of such a thing?-keeps both
husband and wife young hearted and
gay, she says.
Nargaret Anglin has brought back
to America from her tour around the
world an important beauty secret, in
trusted to her. she says. by Kurub.
the ancient but remarkably beautiful
favorite of a Cairo harem. The wo-
mans beauty. her freshness of COM
plexion and the freedom Of her face
from unloVely lines, together with the
report of her age, led Miss Anglin into
curiosity and she begged for the Sc
cret to take to her sisters in the west
ern world. Kurub graciously con-
sented.
"Ohserve this" she said. placing the
tips of her red stained fingers a quar-
ter OF an inch in front of her ears
and slightly beneath them. "This,
is the great nerve. the mother
of the face. All the countless others
that radiate from it are merely its
children. 1t controls all the muscles
of the face. They obey it.
1--WE women of the harem know this.
We massage that nerve. Being lazy,
We do not trouble to massage the rest
of the face. Why. when 1t is not
We place the tips of
the second and third fingers upon the
nerve and with a rotary motion mas

press the fingers lightly upon the
nerves and massage them in ever en-
Iarg,ng circles outward and down
ward. away from the ears. If a wo-
man does nothing else for the preserva-
ton of her beauty this is enough.
She should do this several times a !
day 1t will keep her muscles firm
and her skin smooth. 1t is the key
of Leauty. Our physicians call 1t the
eighth nerve.
