MUSINGS OF ELINOR HITE

SOME girls possess. a fatal gift OF
frightening men on. Just on the
very edge of proposal, when friends.
family and the girl herself are sure
the man is coming TO the point. he
sheers on. This happens time after
time 10 a girl.
What is the secret? How can a girl
give a man a little friendly lead" In
love without sacrificing her pride and
dignity?
The art Of managing men comes nat
uraIly to some women. From their
cradles they know how TO twist men
around their little fingers.
Nothing frightens q man of more
than the knowledge that a girl is dy-
ing to say "Yes" before he has made
up his mind he wants to marry her.
A girls very eagerness to please
sometimes scares a man. II he is given
nice little tempting opportunities 10
propose. in sheer stubbornness he re-
fuses 10 rise to the occasion The very
difficulty of getting q girl alone for
few minutes so that he may tell his
love sometimes acts as a strong stimu-
| lus TO sentiment.
The girl who frightens man off just
at the finish, when in his heart he
really wants to propose. often blames
fate. Young men Of moderate means
are often frightened off by girl who
dresses extravagantly or one who is
| too smart and pleasure loving.
"She's too expensive a luxury for
me-" said man speaking OF certain
girl. The very means this girl used
| TO lure him into matrimony sent him
flying of to propose TO a girl whose
tastes were apparently less expensive.
He didn't know that the girl had ar
rayed herself extravagantly, because
she was really fond OF him and thought
| her dainty bats would lure him into
double harness.
Poor little grill Her very efforts TO
win a lover had frightened him Of.
Sometimes a man who is paying de-
voted attention to a girl and appears
10 be head over heels in love with her
is only silently taking stock OF her
qualities.
why don't you marry Dorothy?"
asked a man whom I knew TO be very
much in love with her.
Because she's so critical II would
be like marrying Judge and jury and
sitting in a perpetual dock wondering
what my wife's sentence on me would
be-" was his startling reply.
Men frightened OF by delightful girls
often marry some one else IN haste and
repent at leisure-and too late.

Sometimes first impressions are last

On the other hand. you may receive

TO TEST FLOUR.

''Now that .matter of pure foods
Is being thoroughly exploited there is
not perhaps so much occasion for
testing foodstuffs as formerly to de-
termine their purity" said a rather
fussy housewife. "but the truth Of the
matter Is l have so long accustomed
myself to certain little things in this
respect that find 1t difficult to break
from the habit For instance, I always
test my flour by grasping handful Of
it quickly and squeezing it hard for
about a minute. II the -four is shaped
to the cavity Of my hand and keeps
that form when ! release the hold I
am satisfied that the -four is pure. II,
however. when I open my hand the
-four crumbles and falls into a shape
less mass I am equally satisfied that
some adulteration has been used.

AIDS TO HEALTH KEEPING

u
Lots Of women would be better II
they would keep in mind the following
''helps:"
Keep alert Mental ruts make more
invalids than do overweight magma
tons.
Keep physically active. The inert
girl who hates to move is usually the
greatest GROWER about her health.
Keep clean. The close connection
between the pores OF the skin and good
health is not generally considered care
fully enough.
Keep interested. There is nothing
like fad or an object in life to put
aches and pains into the background.
Keep busy. The satanic mischief
provided for idle hands is better known
than the physical mischief that hounds
the woman with time to think about
her health.
Keep away from drugs. Most wo-
men deserve all the slandering they get
for the dosing habit Walk more and
take less medicine.
Keep a curb on your appetite. Over
eating is the menace Of the age. The
girl who stuffs between meals pays for
1t in bad skin and a ruined digestion
Keep smiling, for
No matter how things go,
To remedy sickness and blues
You'll find one rollicking ''Ha-hal'
Is worth a thousand ''Boo-hoos."

WF you are looking for something
attractive to make for Christmas
gifts just stop and examine the
n useful and pretty presents to be
seen In the illustration.
How do you like this novel workbag-
the pagoda variety, which is utterly
unlike those you have made other sea-
sons7 II looks like an odd shaped
Japanese lantern, does 1t not7 or
course you can make II in any size
though that Of the illustration Is best
proportioned for general use. SIX
twelve-inch squares are cut from Gre
tonne and a five inch circle cut In the
center of each square. When this is
done the squares are laid together in
pairs and scanned. the edges being nm
ished with q binding frill OF ribbon. A
row OF stitching extends across each
corner about four inches from the
point OF the square. The'squares be-
ing finished, the circles are Joined to-
Rether and the seams carefully bound
with ribbon. An embroidery hoop
wound and ruehed with ribbon is at
tached TO the uppermost circle as
means Of extending the opening.
Photograph frames are not hack
neyed offerings when they have the In
dividual touch Of the donor about
them. The frame pictured is one OF
the best models OF the kind. A half
yard OF pale blue MORE poplin is suf-
ficient material for the frame. The
size is IL by IA inches. A heavy card
board mat. which can be bought at
any art store. Is first covered with
wadding. photographers paste being
used for this purpose. Before putting
on the ribbon flower decoration the
silk is laid over the mount and the
decoration placed In the proper posi-
ton for application. After this is done
the oval should be cut out. care being
taken to cut the oval In the material
at least an inch larger than that Of the
frame. so there viii be sufficient ma
terial to turn IN around the cut A

needle into the first row and knit the
usual way. After finishing the stripe
knit straight across TO the end,
Do this on every row when the stripe
is reached and you will have a snowy
effect that has a raised appearance.
A similar stitch could be used in
crocheting a baby blanket. All that is
necessary is accurate counting OF the
first row TO get the stripes spaced
evenly across the width. Later It is a
matter of even work and not dropping
stitches.

Books for Children

Choosing a book for a child as a
Christmas gift or any book for a ju-
venile reader is matter which re-
quires the most conscientious care.
Ruskin says, Choose q book for chill
dren for what is In 1t. not for what is
out Of it--for some good or worth or
dignity. not because 1t is harmless"
But many purchasers are apt 20 take
the negative view when choosing chill
dren's literature. Yet 1t isn't what a
book lacks. but what 1t possesses, that
makes its appeal to a child and has
the power Of influencing him. How
much wiser, therefore. as Ruskin says.
