LITTLE BEAUTY CHATS
 
The Way of the Jolly Red Nose

All my sympathy goes out, to peo- pie who own to flaming. noses, as this is a beauty defect indeed. Now I am not going to give you recipes for bleaching the crimson tints out of ex- .istence, assI think it more, to the point to tell you what causes the ugly red ness. Once you know the why and the wherefore of your red nose, you can be reasonably sure Of banishing the flaming tfnts. y.
 One reason so many noses are red is because their fair owners commit the folly of eating 1ndigestible food, such as crab, lobster, pfc, cake and hot breads, to say nothing of fried foods of every description This is wrong and it should. be understood that a red nose will be your lot for ever unless you consent ito blot off your bill of fare all foods that the stomach cannot digest
 Sometimes ones nose stays a vivid red because ones clothing is worn a trihe snug. One simply cannot have a nose as white as falling snow if ones gloves or shoes are too tight. And this is not all, as g. tightly laced cor set or snug armholes will cause the blood to rush in torrents to the tip of ones defenseless nose.
 Poor circulation of the blood is re- sponsible for the nose assuming the color of the prosaic beet. so see that you give your bodies so much exercise that the blood will be forced to keep rushing along. Only by exercise and body massage can the woman with a poor circulation ward off red nose
 An exercise which is warranted to make the blood go bounding through ones veins runs as follows: Retire to the privacy of your bedroom, then, seizing upon a small rubber ball, send it sforcibly against the wall or ceiling and nd again send it speeding through the air. By the time you have exercised

Jasper, the thinking" English brindle
terrier dog who has annexed the name
Of Taylor in consideration of the years
OF time Dixie Taylor, of Richmond, Va
has devoted to his education, has just
received and accepted most fattering
offer to appear in vaudeville. He has
signed three years contract the other
day to appear behind the footlights al
the modest salary of $1,000 week.
Jasper is without doubt the most dis
tinguished dog of his time. He has
shown Off before President Wilson,
college professors, learned scientists
and more recently before Mr.. Thomas
A. Edison. All these personages have
been surprised and delighted by Jas
per's unusual intelligence
Jasper made his call on Mr.. Edison
just few days ago. The famous in
ventor was i'll, but Jasper soon made
him sit up and take notice. The first
thing Mr.. Taylor did on arriving at the
Edison home with Jasper was to in
form him that he had forgotten to close
the door The dog trotted back AMI
closed it. Rolling up piece of paper

Jasper to put It in the waste basket.
The dog had never been in the room
before, but he took the paper in his
mouth, glanced about until he had To-
Gated the basket and dropped the paper
in. There was a long mirror in the
room. When told to look at himself
Jasper ran over, put his paws against
the glass and stared at himself.
Jasper obeyed when he was told to
go to a table and close drawer, strike
a letter on a typewriter and go to A
corner and knock over book,
"My! N.Y." exclaimed Mr.. Edison,
patting him on the back, at which Jas
per looked pleased and embarrassed.

Mr.. Taylor explained that Jasper was
only three years old and had been
trained by suggestion to do these
things since he was six months old,
and that scientists had figured out that
he had thinking vocabulary in Eng
lish of over 800 words.
Jasper says when he gets on the
stage he expects to pull off some stunts
which will be a bigger sensation
than the escape of Harry Thaw.

WOMEN AS HOME. MAKERS
Nina Chambers Mexican
One of the paramount questions be-


One of the paramount questions be-
fore the American people today is;
''Woman's Place in the World"
The permanency of the social, eco
nomic and religious institutions de,
ponds upon the proper solution of this
problem She does not seem satisfied
with her present lot, but is anxious to
delve and plunge into what she con-
siders a broader life. Would she not
do more for the moral uplift of hui
mainly if she would but recognize the
place that has been given to her
through all ages? That place is the
home. The home as we know it, has
grown out of the need of a shelter for
the family. Have you ever thought
what an important business home-mak-
ing is?
The home-makers have always been
women, the care of the home and
the management are the household in
dustries, having been at all times n
their hands. In very early times meh
spent their lives hunting the animals
and bringing them home to cook. Can
you imagine a place more sorrowful,
destitute and lonely than a so-called
home void ow mother and home-mak-
er. 1t is an immutable law of human
society that safety in every domain o.
social life is dependent upon safety
and security of the home.
We think sometimes of politics AS
being an unfair game; we can mentioa
hundred things-yes! thousand
things that are run On a questionable
basis, and We wonder why it is and
what is the direct cause. 1t is a shame,
but it is true, nevertheless, that in =
majority of cases the real trouble
starts in the home If the homes were
cleaner" politics and the many othe:
phases of business would be cleaner.
Purifying and advancing our bust
ness interests are as much concern
to women as to man. When we COZ
slider that the home can be kept intact
only by we'll trained men and women,
it is expedient that the present fathers
ard mothers see to it that their sons
and daughters have inculcated in them
the right principles of home-making
We wonder why we have so many
lhachelors. We wonder why our young
men are so discontinued with their
bones. We wonder why the different
clubs are so we'll supported. The
Gutst:on is easily answered. Human
nature Graves satisfaction. 1t Graves
happiness. If we do not find them n
the home, where are we to find them?
l wonder if this word home means
AZ much as it should to you. If home
la,tractiCns are not part of your nat
raj desires and inclinations you hal-
gard your own family and deprive it,
members of that sacred training that
enables them to play part in the evo-
luton of our social affairs. By al
fairs, we mean a place of shelter AMI
protection; a place of happiness AMI
contentment
The greatest fault today is the fac;
that the center of the home, the moth
err, wife and daughter, find more pleas
ure on the streets, or other places 81
amusement than they do in their own
Americus times-recorder. [volume] (Americus, Ga.) 1891-current, 1913-09-28

home. In many instances, the women
are not practical, or at least do not
use any common sense. How many Of
our American women have a home and
take care of it themselves? The av-
erage woman who can afford a SER
want will have one or two, probably
several She herself is perfectly abs
physically, to do the same work, or
a least one of the most important
parasitic management. am sure
every man who reads this article viii
agree with me that there is nothing
more restful after a hard days wo *
than well-regulated and manage |
household.
The great fault with the homes of
today is the makers of these homes are
not prepared for the thing which they
have undertaken. The mother Civ IS
her boy years of training and edu-
cation in college and technical schools
to fortify him to meet all business diff
ficulties, and to meet all problems of
life fairly and squarely in the face, but
what does she do for her girl? She
shelters her from the hard knocks tf
the world; she teaches her to be SO
cial butterfly and to be queen of lit.
| tie shrine where men may bow dowl
and worship her as an idol, too good
to gaze upon Foolish mother! You
have that to overcome; you must give
your daughter the education that will
enable her to be useful, so that she, 4
turn, may give to the world the best
that is in her.
| firmly believe the statement that
am going to make, and | am sure Il
you have never thought of it before
| you will look at it as | do. More than
half of our young men and women
marry at very early age-long be-
| fore their minds have reached the
stage of maturity. They have not ar
gued out the problem and solved the
art Of living. They forget that their
case is not unlike the millions that
have gone before; they in turn must
meet every difficulty that comes in life
fairly and squarely. If they finch
| (as the multitude does) they are cow
ards, and have made failure. Who is
responsible for this failure? 1t goes
back to the home-maker. Those are
some of the problems she has to deal
with in rearing her children.
| In the mission of training children
to be good citizens the school needs
the help of the home, for without right
home conditions, including a sufficient
supply of suitable and well-cooked
food, boys and girls cannot have the
strong bodies and minds needed for
their development while there are chill
dren, and for their life work as men
and women.
Think, then how important to the
nation it is that homemakers should
have knowledge of household science.
Only by treating home-making as an
honorable occupation, worthy of our
best thought and skill can We bring
about better conditions of health, and
happiness. Frances Willard says:
"The mission of the ideal woman is to
make the whole world home-like."
