Good GrOo11ling


 If the defect is one which requires sur gical treatment go to an expert-or en- dure the annoyance of the defect rather than risk what beauty you have by using an acid. the needle or electricity yourself.
 This caution is especially applicable to the busy woman who can give but little time to the making of her toilet Take, for Instance, obesity cures. We are all asked for diets and systems of exercises for reducing the weight, but 1t must be borne in mind that the re- duction of weight must invariably be accompanied by reduction in strength This means that the woman who sys- tematicalIy enters upon a dietary, bath ing and exercise system must give her self over to this entirely, for it win ex- haust her strength if it removes the flesh. The woman who does her own housework or the woman who is in business must not undertake banting, violent physical exercise or bathing and combine with these her regulation work. Physique and nerves cannot en- dure the strain. A breakdown is tnevi- table.

 YFsHuS Is distinctly a period of good
 grooming among women. The slov- eniy though perhaps artistic looking woman Is no longer in the running. The woman who has the features of Greek goddess and yet neglects4 to have her hair properly shampooed and dress ed creates more adverse cornrnent than the woman of irregular, even poor, features who shows the good effect of careful grooming.
 Good grooming is simply immaculate cleanliness and exquisite attention to details of the person. but in their anx- iety to acquire this effect women are prone to adopt cosmetics or to employ means for reducing defects wherein the remedy is more undesirable than the defect itself The wise woman is she who emphasizes all her good points so that they may outshine and attract from her defects. When a defect is so deep rooted as to require radical treat nlent 1t is far better for woman to ig- nore It's existence than to endanger her personal appearance. and perhaps her health. by trying to treat herself.

T F one happens to be near enough to

For many 1t seems better to care for the things at home. This will be found very safe matter, for nearly all homes are more or less provided with burglar alarms or some sort and fire insurance.

Shoes Lace Up the Back

What to Plant Tn Your Garden

fF1aRST in stocking a garden should
 come the old fashioned hardy plants. They will give flowers from early spring until frost in an open border, which may be backed by a hedge or fence.
 Any good garden soil which may be enriched with fertilizers deeply dug will support them. Avoid wet planting and overcrowding. Give each plant sumcient room and 8, dozen or two plants win cover considerable ground.
 Plants growing to height Of two feet or less are set twelve inches apart and all others space equal to one-nalf their height when developed. This is a general rule for spacing.
 Second. disperse the plants of spring, forsnxannx34e the length of the border, among sunafnAf s arfa autumn plants Likewise distributed. so that there will not be time when the border does not appear generally in bloom. This will avoid bare. doweriess spaces at any season.
