is GROWING TENDENCY FOR =.
PUBLICITY GOOD FOR WOMEN? ?

but why. why not swim. golf and be
beautiful in the shadows and leave the
light for those whose accomplishments
are more vital? And when comment is
made upon woman's desire for publicity
why not turn to that type?

Advertised Her Grooming.
And in a Denver paper Of recent date
a two-column picture was published of
a woman. attractive in face and in ply
sique Below it appeared her name and
'One OF the best groomed women in
Denver society circles" II may be there
was a more substantial background than
that. but il SO, the emphasis surely was
placed upon the wrong thing.
And since there is a growing tendency
to be concerned regarding sthe undue
publicity of the new woman" there are
a few at least to whom it seems well to
ponder bit upon the unwarranted light
thrown upon women who are unique en-
tertainers, lavish dressers and royal
spenders of money for which they re-
turn not a moment of labor.
We are so accustomed to that brand
of publicity for women that We think
nothing of it. and If their pictures are
presented in striking effects We count it
just part of the social game quite natu-
raj, in fact.
And it is only when we stop for our
bearings that We begin to see a true
light.
Sometimes Deserved.
Then We know that the publicity that
comes to a woman in the pursuit of ac-
tive life and effective work wherever it
may take her will not be a detriment
TO her or to the world. It takes some
time to get hold OF new ideals and new
standards, but it does seem that we
might learn to reckon values fairly. to
ask ourselves what constitutes useful
womanhood, then take our measures ac-
cordingly. If it is counted quite ideal to
be distinguished for perfect dressing,
SNOWY entertainment, costly Jewels, and
the like. then We cannot complain If
women are publicly and often portrayed
in that role. And II We regard il a long
step ahead when we see women lend
ing hand to the arts, the crafts. the
and the humanities of the
world, then We only say. may the new
woman" grow newer and may the pub
licity that comes to her be better under
stood.

RipaLs Her Daughter
in Youthful Beauty
CFrom Social RegisterJ

welI-known society matron whose
youthful beauty is SO well preserved
that she is regarded as her daughter s
rival in this respect-though she does
not pose as such-attributes her girl
ish complexion chiefly to two things.
She says:
Il am convinced that creams, by
overlooking the skin and pores, tend
to age the complexion. Mercolized
wax has just the opposite effect. 1t
keeps the pores clean. permitting them
to breathe, and removes dead particles
of cuticle which are constantly appear
ing. and which gives the complexion
that faded look. Whenever my skin
begins TO get the least bit OF color
go to my druggists for an ounce
of mercolized wax; ] apply this night
ly like cold cream, for a week or so,
washing 1t off mornings. This is what
keeps my complexion SO fresh, white,
and velvety.
''The absence of wrinkles and fiabbi-
ness j owe to the use of a simple face
bath prepared by dissolving one ounce
of powdered saxolite in a half pint
witch hazel. This keeps the skin
tight' and firm"

EASY WAY TO WASH
CORSETS At HOME

Wash your own corsets at home when
soiled. II there are heavy steels at the
side. take these out and then soak the
corset. cord and all, in thick sud for
several hours Take out the cord and
put each half of the corset against the
scrubbing board. and scrub it with a
brush and very strong suds
If the soil clings at edges. or the corset
is badly stained with perspiration, put a
little ammonia in the water Scrub al
ways up and down the depth of the
corset, for the sidewise rubbing will get
1t out of shape.
Rinse it in ammonia water, then blue
it slightly and hang 1t on the line by the

TILTED, ATTEMPTS MURDER.

When the Tots Bathe.

Bathing constitutes one Of the chief
charms Of the seaside. but with little
children mothers should be especially
careful to exercise control over them
in this matter. Boys especially are very
apt te be rash and sften are totally
ignorant of when they should or should
not battle. 1t is really dangerous to race
about and get overheated, to sit down,
perhaps. in a strong wind until quite cool
and then to plunge into the water. The
risk Is even greater IL the child stays
In too long. From ten to fifteen minutes
is quite long enough for the very little

Potash for Plants.

Here is a good tonic to apply to a
dropping plant.
Potash is a good plant stimulant, and
so is nitrate of soda, which must, how
ever, be used very carefully and sparing-
ly il it Is not to do more harm than
good; it is quite sufficient to sprinkle
little Of 1t over the soil. If the soil
is light, sulphate Of potash may be bene-
icially used, and phosphate will pro-
duce fine blooms on such plants as roses
and carnations.

Health and Beauty Advice
By MRS. MAE MARTIN.

R. NJ. S: Sallow complexion. liver
blotches. pimples and other eruptions
of the skin indicate the need of a good
blood tonic and liver-regulator. Dis,
solve one ounce of kardene in one-half
pint of alcohol mot whiskey), add one
half cupful of sugar and enough hot
water to make a full quart Take one
tablespoonful five minutes before each
meal Kardene purifies the blood
arouses the liver. clears the skin, re-
stores lost appetite and tends to
strengthen and build up the entire sys-
TEN.
J. W.: You can add greatly to your
Beauty if you rub pyroxin on your eye
brows with finger-end. This makes
them grow thick and silky. Applyinl;
pyroXin at lash-roots with thumb and
curly. Use caution and don't get py-
roxin where no hair is wanted.
Mrs. D: Those ugly hairs can be
u paste made with powdered delatone
and water. This paste should remain
on the hairy surface two or three min
utes, then rub of and wash the skin
and every trace of hair has vanished.
The delatone treatment never fails and
leaves the skin free from spot or blem<
ish.
Annette: The affection of over-fat-
ness is to be deplored at any age. but
1t is positive calamity to a young
and pretty woman to become too fat
in these days when fashion DEGREES the
slender figure the only correct one. You
can reduce your weight almost at the
rate of pound a day until you reach
normal n you will dissolve four ounces
of .parnotis in ! y pints of hot water
and take a Tablespoonful before each

irst-class druggist. 1t is a harmless.

brighter. more buoyant. and energetic.
Fannie R.: To be sure a face-lotion
is far better than face powder. but
YOU will have to be careful what you
use as most liquid face powders" con-
tain Injurious ingredients that are like
ly to ruin your complexion. Try this
inexpensive one which is all right: Dis
solve four ounces of spurmaN in a half
pint of witch hazel or hot water and
add two teaspoonfuls glycerine. Rub
this on your face. neck and arms, and
1t will give your skin a very pleasing
delicate tone. This lotion does not
show or rub off like powder and will
remove that shiny, sallow look from
your skin. This preparation is a Won
derful skin-beautifier and I find il ex-
cellent for rough. red or sallow skins,
freckles and skin-pimples.

Have Boards Clean.
When doing up floors the first thing
necessary in order to obtain good re-
suits is to have the boards perfectly
clean, SO they should be thoroughly
sscrubbed. Unless the floors are of hard
wood or made from specially selected
boards, better results can be obtained

viii select one of these. Care, of course,
should be taken TO follow carefully the
directions on the can, and one should be
particular about allowing the full time
for drying each coat before another is
applied.
Wipe with Flannel Cloth.
After the last coat is thoroughly dried
the floor should be wiped all over very
carefully with a perfectly clean flannel
cloth and then two coats of wax applied.
Each coat should remain on fifteen min
utes before it is rubbed into the wood.
This is really the only hard work con-
nected with the doing up of floors, as
it requires pretty strong rubbing to bring
the wax TO bright polish.
Any one, however, who has ever en-
joyed the luxury of a waxed floor, es-
pecially in the city, will never be with
out one, as nothing is as easily kept
clean and the wax gives perfect finish
obtained in no other way.
