SHOULDER BEAUTY

 ssvVhy Is this?r asks a soft voice. Since you urge me to open confes- sion, feel obliged to say that the average woman pets her teeth and coddle her shoulders.
 This is great beatty errors as dresses ara being cut lower and low CT for evening wear. and even in the prpsaic day time the popular Dutch neck gives more than a f1eeting glimpse of the shoulders If they are pretty to look upon we have noth- ling at which to cavil, but when they are yellow or rough. we have just Ecause of complaint
 There is not the slightest shadow #of an excuse for rough-skinned 3sheulders. as 1t is quite 2 simple mat tier to so treat them that they will grow smooth as satin.
 It will gladden. your hearts to know that your shoulders will become smooth as the petals of B newly gath cred rose, if you treat them to 6 thorough scrubbing, night and morning. with rough cloth dripping with hot water and soap suds.
 When you have secured away at your shoulders until you know they are clean as clean can be. rinse them of we'll with hot perfumed water, then run a piece of foe over the sur face of the skin until 1t is as red as a winter sunset
 This beautifying treatment cannot be considered as conpIete until a. Turkish towel has been v1gorously lsee-sawed across the back and chest, dispatching into oblivion every bit Of trough skin.
 elbow shoulders are just as abnor- nal as rough-skinned shoulders, Sd if you wish to be in the beauty swim you must contrive in some way to.

Why, she saw a tall squirrel pole. and five little fellows from the woods, dressed in cunning cloth suits, red and yellow and blue, running up it and down it. How nirnbIe the little woodsmen werel and Dorothy just couldn't clap her hands enough at their tiny coats and sasI1es and trim pantaloons.
 all went; but there was one squirrel who always reached the top first, and waved a little flag and struck ring of bells like mad with his flagstaff and almost shouted 'Hurrahi"
 Then all the little boys at the cir GUS clapped their hands, and all the little girls hoped on one foot, and the squirrels came down pell neI and then turned round and back up again like a chain of lightning, hold ing on by each others tails, and the dagman flung his little flag higher than ever just hanging on by one paw the lions and the elephants and the am-e1-o-pards were of no account at all, compared with the squirrel pole and it's little racers.

IS FEMINISM THE RESULT
 OF LOST RELIGION?
sSuffragists, by Their Actions in England Prove They Are InfideIs of the Worst Type Known to Humanity.
(From Mrs. John M. Buck.

Owen Johnson maintains that the unrest among women which we are witnessing at the present time, and to which the name of feminism is given, has been brought about through az nosdcisrn, In other words, women have been losing their religion and the result is what we see.
 This explanation is at least tngen- ious and there may be something in it. The great force that has kept mankind and womankind compara- lively decent in the past is religion, for religion is a quest for perfection, a pursuit of the ideal, and when a man loses his religion, or 8 woman loses hers, such terms as sperfec- tion'' and ideals become meaning that perfection means nothing to the Suffragettes of England. that they have no ideals Because the ballot is denied to them they stand ready to destroy all the hard won fruits of civilization. One had always sup posed that a great book or a great picture or great cathedral meant as much to women as to men; that these things were for women to re- jotce in as we'll as men: But the Suffragettes reveal by their actions that they care nothing for libraries; art galleries or architecture. They are more than agnostics; they are in fdels, and infidels of the worst type known to humanity. In England they have recently come to be known as twentieth century furies.''
 We sympathize with the desire of men and women of our century for self-enjoyment. We are glad tbat the old-tine notions of asceticism and seIf-crucihxion have all but fad ed out of human minds. But we must not forget the truth that the Puritans had looked upon things that are unIovely; that were unIovely then and are unIovely now. And the wild fanatical, crusa ding zeal that they manifested in old England and in New England was due to their re- pugnance for men and women who had come to believe that ideals and perfection were meaningless terms, even as men and women of our time believe that they are. We confess that we are fearful lest the excesses that have become common among men and women of to-day may pro yoke in time not far distant, a swing of the pendulum toward the fa- natical puritanism of an elder day. That would be a horrible thing in deed. But when men and women re- fuse to take life seri ously, when they adopt an agnostic attitude, and es- chew ideals, fanaticism of some sort becomes the Nemesis that shall over take them.

Covering Jams.

One of the best ways of covering jams and jellies so that they will keep well is to cover the jars as soon as they are filled. Have the papers cut ready and the white of an egg slightly beaten, brush the papers with the white of the egg and tic down quickly The heat of the jam destroys all germs that might cause it to mold and dries the egg so quickly that it is hermet- ica1ly sealed
