In cleaning brio a-brac it is we'll to

Patent Finger Tips Like

The patent finger lips are identical In

and are shaped like thimbles, fitced
with screw that tightens them. Like
the chin straps, these are worn for
hours at a time. Beginning with no
more than an ordinary close fit. the
steady turning of the screws, hour by

Loving and Being Loved

Loving is a far greater thing than be-
ing loved.
And yet how few people look at it that
way.
A woman who has allowed herself to
win a mans love without possessing the
power to return it, is frequently proud
OF the fact. She should be thoroughly
ashamed.
The woman who has fallen in love
with a man who does not love her is even
dreadfully ashamed She has infinitely
more reason to be proud than the other
woman.
The saddest thing in life is to give a
great love and not have it returned.
But the most tragic thing in life is
never to have loved at all.
Anyone who goes through life without
ever loving someone else better than HIM
self. even If only for a brief time, is spir-
itUally only half grown

Mothers Day Today

BE swift to love your own, dears,
Your own who need you so;
Say to the speeding hour, dears,
II will not let thee go
Except thou give a blessing
Force it to bide and stay.
Love has no sure tomorrow
Tt only has today.
Swifter than sun and shade, dears.
Move the fleet wings of PAIN
The chance we have today, dears,
May never come again.
Joy is a tickle rover,
He brooketh not delay.
Love has no sure tomorrow
1t only has today.

Beauty in Tears

Tears are beauty makers. Such is the
discovery of DR.. Lindahl of Copenhagen,
bacteriologist. Not only do tears soothe
the troubled spirit. he says, they sterilize
the face, and SO prepare the way for
ccmeliness. Tears contain large per-
centage of sodium chloride, and this
clears the eye and refreshes the delicate
mechanism of the organ. Then, as the
scalding drops course down the face, they
encounter millions Of germs that harbor
In the pores to the detriment of the skin
and complexion. To put Il in another
form, weeping Is essential to health, and
regular baths of tears are directly ac-
cessory to beauty.
