Wishes to Grow
Dear Miss Doom

Dear Miss Doom
1 am only 4 feet 8 inches in height
and n years of age. Can you tell me
of anything hat I could do to make
myself taller and can you tell me
something to make my eye lashes
grow heavier? Hoping to hear from
you, I remain,
A CONSTANT READER.
/ fear you must resign yourself to
being small, but why worry? If you
are properly proportioned and give
attention to all the little details that
make for daintiness there is NO
reason why the result should not be
most attractive. However, you can
add about an inch to your height by
stretching systematically.
Have you aver seen children stretch
and stretch? That is because they
grow so fast and every time they
stretch grandma says they grow a
quarter of an inch. We don't like to
make our arms grow alone, so the
? best way to add the inch to our
height is to stretch the limbs in bed.
Make your toes reach the footboard
II you can. Do this every night and
morning, getting far enough up in
bed to make it worth while. When
Z standing make the arms reach up to
> certain height every day and when
walking keep the head erect and the
spine perfectly straight. This will
help you to grow and at all events to
look your tallest and best.
The stretching exercises have been
used with success. Also some invalids
: claim to have grown when lying in
: bed a number of months, SO it be-
hooves JUS to rest occasionally and
not stand constantly on the feet, al
though we do not care to be Ill to
iigrow tall. Lie down and stretch out
once and awhile. We are like bits of
elastic in this way. Naturally, if we
ARE always inactive we decrease in
height or bulk and to grow tall we
must have a chance to pull out the
creases from wear and tear.
. A good gymnasium course will be
an excellent thing for you. Not only
will it end to correct over-develop-
/, ment Of one part of the body, but
in all probability it will add a lit
tie to your height by the stretching
we have been considering. More than
this, little lady, you cannot expect
TO attain.
Be careful of your style of dress
ing. Keep the lines straight and
avoid anything that has the slight
est resemblance of a ruffle.

IA camel's hair brush will tend to

increase their growth, but you must
be very careful that none of it gets
into the eye. If 1t does it will cause
irritation and Inflammation and prob
ably something more serious. The
eye is such a delicate organ that
we cannot afford to tamper with it,
even to obtain those long, sweeping
lashes which we all admire.

Naturalization Queries
Dear Miss Doom:

Dear Miss Doom:
Can o please answer the follow
ing: What are the questions / am
likely to be asked In applying for my
second and my last citizens papers?
Where does the judge sit, and when?
H. NJ.
1t is impossible to tell beforehand
what questions an applicant for citi-
zenship papers will be asked, but it is
safe to assume that most of them will
be about the government of the
United States. After you have filed
YOU application at the na~turaliza-
ton bureau, High street and Spring
field avenue. you will be notified when
and where to appear.

Coin Query

Dear Miss Doom:
I have a copper coin about an inch
and a half in diameter with Georgius
III. D. G.. Rex on one side and Bril-
tannia, 1897. on the other. Can you tell
me IL there is a value placed on 1t,
and If not where l will be able to
find out. Thanking you IN advance,
1 am sincerely M. f. B.
The coin is a British one and 1
have no record of 1t. A coin dealer
will value it for you. You will find
the name and address of one on page
1886 of the City Directory under
"Numismatists."

Having once been very i'll and hav-
ing suffered from being fed every
day and all day on the usual
Invalid fare Gall hot), l have ever
since provided, as far as possible,
some cold dishes for my invalid
friends. The following recipes have
Iva been very much liked:
French Egg Jelly.
Reoujred-A pint of milk, ounce
and a half of sugar, a small piece OF
cinnamon, three-quarters of an ounce
of gelatine, lemon rind and three
yolks of eggs.
First boil up the milk with the Gin
namon and a thin piete of lemon
rind; add the sugar. Stir the egg
yolks in a bowl, pour on h boiling
milk. stir well and return TO the pan
in which the milk was boiled, STIR
over the gas for a few minutes to
bind the eggs dt must not bold and
strain into a clean bowl. Soak the
eeIatine in a little cold water, drain
and then melt 1T in a basin over a
saucepan full of hot water. Before
this gets cold steam it while stirring
in the custard. Pour this mixture
into small molds and set in a cold
place. Turn out to serve.
Another Nice Jelly.
This is made by emitting the milk
and using the juice of two lemons
and water to make up a pint OF
liauid. A little more gelatine and
sugar will be required. The process
is the same as above.
Beef Tea Jelly.
Reouired-Half an ounce of gela-
tine. a pint of strong beef tea.
Soak the gelatine in just sufficient

Dissolve this over a small saucepan

mould and stand in a cool place.

To Relieve Painful and Swollen
Joints
Dear Miss Doom:

Dear Miss Doom:
VIII some one kindly tell me
through the paper what I can do to
ease the pain caused by swollen
joints on the feet? l have tried a
number of remedies without relief. I
vice. Thanking you. yours,
A CONSTANT READER.
Hot foot baths will prove as simple
and helpful a remedy as any that can
be recommended without the advice
of a physician. You should have
medical advice on a matter of this
kind, and 1t is not likely that local
applications will afford NOR than
temporary relief.

THE HOME DRESSMAKER

The graceful. clinging effect, so
necessary IN the skirt of silk or other
fimsy material, may be secured by
the use of an interlining on the
lower hem or a facing with a strip Of
flannel. Some other wooden fabric
may be used If it has enough body
to give weight to the lower edge of
the skirt. This interlining should be
of the same color or light enough not
to change the color of the dress.

OSTRICH PLUMES

Ostrich plumes. like lace, are never
allowed to remain in the background
for any length of time, and an early
return to favor is predicted for them
as the season advances. The smaller
hat shapes of satin and plush are so
chic in form and fabric that they
really require but little trimming of
any kind. The "Berets'' of velvet are
very becoming, and real Tam-o'-
