Times Tend to Make a Standard Woman

become SO much of one pattern that re-
volt means nothing short of a plunge
into eccentricity.
Ridicule and science are killing the
emotions. Each generation, we are
told, becomes less emotional than that
preceding it and fifty years hence dis
plays of feeling will be as obsolete as
"vapors' and Paintings are at present.
If we var to realize how devoid of
obvious emotions we have already be-
come we have only to study that form
of fiction in which the average young
person Is still represented as gasping,
thrilling, weeping, gazing with scorn,
passionately denouncing, flashing and
turning breathlessly, in everyday cir
cumstances. She is, of course, a
superfiuous survival from the past.
Time will kill her, and then ~futurity
will smile at the current heroine carry
ing on the traditions of emotions we
have diluted. chilled and reduced to
order.
Those who are wise are beginning to
follow the advocates of the simple
things in life. Not, perhaps, because
they have any strong conviction that
by so doing they will defeat the process
of time or lessen the annoyance of
existence. 1t is rather that those who
lead the simple life also command the
best of everything that their doctrine
prescribes. The frill on the outlet and
the icing on the cake are guiles which
cannot be imposed upon the enthusiasts
TO whom simple things become sus.
p;c;ous under Ss-oration.

Serve Other and
Be Happy

1t is easy enough to serve those we
love. Love and s%elfishness cannot ex-
list together. What will we not sacri-
fee for a loved one? The hardest task
is to learn to sacrific ourselves will
ingly for those we do not care about,
for the ideal state of self-sacriice in
cludes willing sacrifice for all.
Some people appear to have born in
them the spirit of serving others: it
seems to be perfectly natural for them
to yield to generous impulses, to think
of others first and of themselves last
or not at all. Often their service is
so entirely unconscious hat it is not
appreciated properly.
With others the practise of serving
others is not natural, but acquired.
There is many a nan or woman in the
world who at n time considered his
or her own individual happiness of
the utmost Importance, but who by
passing through a great grief has his
or her spirit of sympathy widened,
ceases to think of self Inc learns to
know the joy of serving others.
We feel the presence Of the altruistic
one among us as thai of one whose life
is dominated by a spirit of broad uni
versal sympathy, and whose whole ma
ture is enriched and rendered ideal
by the highest form of joy-the joy of
serving others.

Valentine Party.

My Dear Miss Doom:
VIII you please give me some suggestion
how to entertain at a valentine party?
The guests are between 20 and rs.
CONSTANT READER.
Why not give a valentine card party?
1t is immaterial what game you play,
although hearts is suitable to the occa-
sion. Above each table have two
strings of red cardboard hearts,
crossing in the centre. Instead OF
punching tallies have the winning
couple at each table detach a heart
from the string. At the end Of the
games the two or three having the
largest number of hearts win prizes.
Try to nave the prizes in keeping with
the day. The men might be given
heart-shaped ash receivers and the
girls hairpin trays.
Carry out the valentine idea in the
refreshments. Have heart-shaped sand
witches, cakes and ice cream The place
cards may be in the form of hearts
decorated with little Cupids. Instead
of having the names of the guests on
the cards, write an original verse de-
scribing some of the characteristics of
the valentine who is to occupy that
place. Next have the cards numbered
and let each m guess who is described.
Award a prize to the one making the
largest number of correct gnesses.

Thought Control

One of the first things to learn is to
control III thoughts, so that Wa car
If need be. shut the door of our minds
to worrying over what cannot be
helped. 1t isn't a thing we can do at
once, but it Is worth n mount of
effort, for it means peace and calm in
the midst of stress, and a habit of
cheerfulness which is invaluable. To
waste our energies on interminable re-
greet for past mistakes is to court new
ones, for, by so doing, we enfeeble our
wills and pafalyze fresh aspirations.
We cannot keep OUT without put
ting in" and to store our minds with
pleasant thoughts Is a long way to-
wards excluding sad ones.

SHORTENING THE BABY

The average outfit for a Shortened"
baby consists of:
Three or four frocks, three white pet
ticoats (of fine longcloth or white cam
bric), three flannel petticoats, two
pairs of drawer-bodies, six pairs of
first drawers, six fancy bibs, a coat and
a cap, with either silk or padded lining,
three pairs of rompers, one sacque,
either flannel or knitted.
For the frock, either cambria or Main
sock is ideal in warm weather. Indeed,
most mothers prefer to use white wash
ing frocks the whole year through, sup
plementing the undertaking as may
be necessary on the score of warmth.
A little frock may be made by merely
tucking the foot Of the skirt, emitting
the fril1s, and introducing a line of
feather stitching in lieu of the inser-
ton which alternates with the tucks of
the short bodice.
If possible, keep enough extra mate
rails by you for new sleeves. That part
of the dress is quickest outworn and
outgrown.
For the cap and it's accompanying
headgear. numerous fabrics offer them
selves from cistly silk benga1ine to the
modest serge.
A winter coat must be interlined
throughout. The hat or bonnet should

The Best Cough Syrup Is
Easily Made at Home
Costs Little and Acts Quickly.
Money Refunded II 1t Fails.

This recipe makes a pint of cough
syrup, and saves you about $500 as com.
pared with ordinary cough remedies. 10
stops obstinate coughs-even whooping
cough-in a hurry, and is splendid for
sore lungs, asthma, Group, hoarseness
and other throat troubles.
Mix one pint of granulated sugar with
AZ pint of warm water, and stir for 2
minutes. Put 21a ounces of Pinex fifty
cents worthy in q pint bottle, and add
the Sugar Syrup. Take a teaspoonful
every one, two or three hours. Tastes
good.
This takes right hold of a cough and
dates the appetite, and is slightly laxa-
tive-both excellent features.
Pinex, as perhaps you know, is the
Norway white pine extract, rich in
guaiacol and the other natural healing
pine elements.
No other preparation will do the work
of Pinex in this recipe, although strained
honey can be. used instead OF the sugar
syrup, if desired.
Thousands of housewives in the United
States and Canada now use this Pinex
and Sugar Syrup recipe. This plan has
often been initiated, but the old success.
full formula has never been equaled. It's
low cost and quick results have made it
Immensely popular.
A guaranty of absolute satisfaction, or
money promptly refunded, goes with this
recipe. Your druggist has Pinex, or will
get it for you. If not, send to The

Do Not Ignore the
Small Courtesles

Small courtesies Of life seem to be
entirely lost in the rush for big things.
This leaving off of the little things that
go to make. living worth the while is
a well-known and recognized fact to
women who crave those graceful atten-
tions so easy in the giving when the
thought is right.
Many men no longer consider it
necessary to rise when a lady enters
the room. If they proffer a chair, it is
seldom done with the old-time alacrity,
and a few trips on a trolley car will
be sufficient to convince the veriest
skeptic of the truth of courtesy's
~decadence.
Be it said in favor Of man. con-
tinually on the rack regarding these
omissions, thai he Is by no means the
greatest offender.
Women who entertain will tell you
of scores of invitations to which they
never even received the courtesy of an
acknowledgment. "R. S. Y. P" at
the end of a card or note means moth
ing to women too t~houghtless or too i'll
bred to take / We minutes for a reply.
Such treatment of a social courtesy
is an effense sufficient to cause the
offenders name to be stricken from the
social list of the hostess.
The small courtesies of woman to
are fully as important as those
from man to woman or woman to man.

A Cure for Bunions.
My Dear Miss Doom:

My Dear Miss Doom:
| am a young girl and suffer a great
deal with bunions, and 1t is also very hard
for me TO select shoes to fit me. Please
advise me how to get rid of my distress
ing pain. ] shat ie very grateful to you
for suggestions. \ cry sincerely,
GREAT SUFFERER.
MONS result from cold or FROST
bites or from tight or ill-htting shoes.
This treatment has been highly recon-
mended for their cure: Dissolve two
heaping tablespoonsful of baking soda
in two gallons of hot water. Let 1t
fall on the bunion from the highest
elevation from which it a be borne
without causing too much pain. This
be done by having it poured from
a kettle that has a narrow spout, as
the stream should be a small one. Tho
stream can be m,ade small by fitting
into the spout of the kettle a cork
with a small hole bored in it. This
treatment should be taken for about
fifteen minutes every day and the
water should be as hot as a be borne.
n excellent lotion ..sh which to
paint the bunion Is composed of glycer-
inc, 2 drachms; carbolic acid, 2
drachms, and tincture of iodine, 2
drachms. Apply this - the bunions
daily with a camel's hal, brush. Apph-
cations Of sweet oil are also said to
effect a cure.
The portion Of the shoe which presses
upon the bunion should be cut away
and replaced with an invisible patch.
In buying shoes, TAX sle time and
tn patience to get one that fits prop
eriy. 1t may mean you will be obliged
to go to several shoe stores. but I am
sure in the end you will be able to
find a make that is suited TO your foot.
Remember that eve after the bunion
is partially or entirely cured a single
days irritation from { tight shoe or
one h a presses harshly upon it will
put it back into the painful or infiamed
state that you have been weeks in re-
moving.

The tendency of the times for all to
think alike, look alike, dress alike and
adopt like amusements will, we are
warned, end in the production of a
standard woman who may live to hate
her likeness to every other woman.
What we ought to strive for is differ
ence, no matter how small a beginning
we make. But those who advocate this
safeguard against likeness. can
have experienced the burden that even
the tiniest attempt to strike out in the

AS to Engagements.
Dear Miss Doom

WOW AnA6O
Two months ago I met a man of whom
I ave become very fond He has pro-
posed and desires me to marry him at
once. Do you think 1t would be right?
How long should the engagement period
be? Will you please advise me?
A.. B. Y.
Setting aside the facts that a girl is
running a certain amount of risk in
pledging herself to a man she has
known only a short time, and that the
engaged period is often one of the
happiest and most light-hearted times
OF her life, it must also b, remembered
hat during a long engagement she will
spend man. delightful hours in making
dainty accessories for that wonderful
home-to-be, in which she Is to reign as
mistress.
OF course, the happy medium is the
best, and most people We Id a that
one year is a very fair time of proba-
ton. For a girl to meet a man, fall in
love with him, and marry him in three
months, seems to me to be the height
OF folly.
On the other hand, 1t is a pity-a very
great ~pity-for a girl to bind herself to
a mar who sees no hope Of marrying
her for six or seven years.
Engagements of ten and twelve years
do often terminate in matrfmony, but
the frequency also with which they
come to nothing makes m see the
undesirability of such a long strain be-
ing put on the affections of a man-for
it is seldom that the woman is h one
to break it off after some years.
Therefore, let the girl hesitate before
she gives her promise Under such CIR
c~umstances, for her love must be Of the
patient and enduring kind If 1t is to
outlast the difficulties Of a .ong engage-
ment.
