!, Young Girls and Drink
Even the Tempting Cocktail or the dangerous High
Ball Are To Be Studiouslv Avoided by
Maids Of Tender Years

woman dropped her good name in her
cocktail glass.
There is only one rule Of conduct for
girls, and that is to avoid even the APP
rearance Of evil. 1t isn't enough for a
girl just to be good. She's got to look
good. and that is why she cannot permit
herself to be seen drinking wine in public.
Girls are emotional creatures, and just
the excitement Of having dinner in a
restaurant the thrill of the gay scene,
the excitement Of people coming and GO
ing, the Tilt of the music get into their
blood and bring a flush to their cheeks.
a sparkle 20 their eyes. and key their
voices up to a higher note.
How easy for the casual observer to
fancy that such a girl is intoxicated IL
he sees an array OF wine glasses at her
plate. or has observed her drinking a
cocktail. Yet the girl may have had
only sip Of wine. and be drunk only
on her own high spirits.
Men are never fair to women about
the drink question. for the very man who
will urge a girl to be a sport, and have
cocktail or another glass of wine. IL
the very first 70 condemn her for doing
SO. More than that the standard by
which every man judges a girl is whether
she drinks or not.
When man wants to express his con-
viction that a woman is. like Caesars
wife, above suspicion, he invariably says,
She's as straight as a die. She never
touches a drop of anything to drink"
There's no evil he believes of the woman
who doesn't drink. and there's no evil
he doesn't believe of woman who does
drink
And in this opinion he is justified, for
drink is responsible for the first down.
ward step of practically every girl who
leaves the straight and narrow path.
Wine that inflames the passions and
paralyzes the judgment makes the way
easy for the tempter.
Don't drink in public, girls The light
sort Of a man will respect you for re-
fusing to do so. and you are lucky to
lose the attentions of the wrong sort Of
one. No man wants a cocktail-drinking
girl for a wife.

LESSON XIII-PART Nv.

There is always a certain difference OF
opinion as to what constitutes perfect
physical proportions Some artists admire
the tall woman and others the short. but
in either case the rest of the body should
be fashioned in accord. The ideal eN-
pressed in early Greek sculpture shows
the head but one-seventh the entire height
of the body, but modern taste has con-
siderably modified this standard. The fol-
lowing table is regarded as the ideal mod
Omaha daily bee., 1914-08-17

woman's age makes some difference
in the weight of the body. As woman
grows older her bones become heavier,
and slight increase in flesh is not only
becoming. but an indication of good ply
steal health. Remember that muscles
weigh more than flabby flesh and turning
the flesh to muscles will make the meas
urements mailer, even IL the weight is
not decreased. An increase in flesh ac-
cordng to age is taken into consideration
by some life insurance companies in MAX
ing policies For example, a woman
feet inches tall at 81 years Of age should
weigh 40 pounds, at 50 years of age she
should weigh 125 pounds, and ten pounds
more at s. years old.
Women with small zones canont carry
to advantage as much flesh as can those
with larger frames for the reason that
flesh, whether it is fat or muscle, takes
up more room than bones. Considerations
Of this sort must govern the amount one
should weigh

STANDARD PACKAGE
BILL MAY BECOME LAW

Information coming from Washington
indicates that the Raker apple bill,
which is practically the measure put
out by G. K. Whistler. president of the
Oregon Horticultural society, will not
die in committee this season but will
again be considered, according to a dis
patch to the Oregon journal.
Some time ago information came that
the committee on coinage, weights and
measures of congress, had practically
decided to allow the bill to die so far as
this session was concerned.
A. P. Bateham, former president of
the horticultural society and vice presi-
dent for Oregon of the Northwestern
Fruit Exchange, wired Thomas W.
Hardwick, chairman of the congress
sional committee that the fruit growers
insisted upon the bill being considered
as it was vital to the industry that a
standard package be named.
MIR. Bateham has received the fol-
lowing message from MIR. Hardwick:
81 have your night letter of the
eleventh instant and have carefully
noted its contents. The matter will be
referred TO the committee at its meet
ing. am glad to be advised of your
views in reference to this matter"
The message from the chairman of
the committee is very gratifying to To-
cal interests, inasmuch as it Insures
the bill fighting chance for passage.
