The American woman of forty-five a generation ago saw her forty-flve years enthusiastically reflected in her mirror in worry lines. flabby throat. graying hair, and sagging facial muscles. The woman of that day turned away sadly enough, no doubt, but her predominant ing feeling was sad resignation to the inevitable law which decreed that woman of her advanced years to ap. pear old. The woman of forty five to- day. yes, and even the woman of fifty, would laugh il one advanced so absurd an opinion. The life of today is more wearing, more active, than was that of generation ago, but her mirror re fleets a smooth white brow, from which the worry lines have been ban ished by the forehead strap" and the wrinkle plaster,' and a firm rounded throat and chin, the contour of which is preserved by the application of as tringents and the artful "chinstrap' Her hair is abundant and we'll cared for. and her soft skin is tinted with 8 vegetable rouge that cannot be de tected.

PLEA FOR THE OLD HOME LIFE
Return to 1t Would Be of Benefit to the Nation, Is the Opinion of
 New Yorker.

Again we hear the praises sung of "the old-fashioned mother"-it is a theme to arouse tender memories and to inspire imitation among the women of today, remarks the New York Mail The old=fashioned mother. home-loving and devoted to her children. caring for them in sickness and in health, from the cradle to the end-it was she who made the home and kept it, and who made the nation strong and great in the stability of it's units, the homes.
 But there was the old-fashioned ia ther, too, who found his greatest pleas ure in being by the side of the old-fash toned mother, with their childreI about them. To him the family fire side was the best place on earth, an f he helped to make 1t. such, and mothe and father were the best people in tn, world in those days when they nightl, gathered their brood about them fol the family hour-the best hour in the twenty-four.
 Parents of today lose much by not being old-fashioned, their children lose more and the nation suffers most of all for no people can be truly strong when the hearthstone ceases to draw with compelling force, and when fa- ther and mother and children are sep arated in the pursuit of the excite ments that take the place of the old. fashioned home life.
