Is She Pretty?
BY RUTH CAMERON.

Is She Pretty?
My friends sometimes laugh at me
because my first question about any
unknown female quantity usually is,
us she pretty?"
But why not2
When you come right down to it,
doesn't the possession or lack of
beauty have a tremendous effect on
woman's life?
Or on a mans, too, for that mat

anyone's favor. AS 1 have often said,
it is the show window which makes
people want to come inside the shop.
The goods inside must keep the Gus
get them there in the first place with
an attractive show window.
A homely man or woman can &C
complish just as big things but it usu-
Perhaps this very lack of beauty
helps develop force of character. Who
knows? In any case there are few of
us who would refuse the possession of
good looks if some fairy godmother
offered them to us.
Which brings me somewhat nearer
the point 1 started for.
Are you a mother? If so, are you
doing all you can to give your chill
dren the largest measure of good
looks possible to them?
The shape of the head is an i'm
portant factor. Up to the age of
eighteen months child's head is
more or less malleable and the shape
can be injured by letting it lie too
much in one position. If you put a
hot water bottle down on a pillow it
will take a certain form and hold it.
That's what happens to a child's head
and if you don't want it to be poorly
shaped you should turn the child on
the pillow frequently.
Few things detract from good looks
more than protruding ears. A little
down a
night will help discourage ears that
have the protruding tendency. Be
sure it is thin enough not to make
him sweat. Be careful, too, that the
child does not lie with the ear folded
under.
Misshapen teeth will spoil the fin
est face. Be careful that the first
teeth do not stay in too long and force
the second to come in. crooked. Di-
rectly after the second teeth have
dental deformity. Take the child to
a first class dentist If you can't af-
ford that, perhaps there are free dem
tai clinics in your neighborhood.
A good complexion is a gift that
your woman-child will thank you for
all the days of her life. Cleanliness
of skin, fresh air, lots of sleep and
healthy diet with not too much sweets
are the best means to insure good
skin. Plenty of sleep during the grow
ing years is likely to mean roses in
the blooming years. Your children
may resent the early bed hour now,
but just wait.
Don't think all this is too much
bother over too small a matter. This
is what a pretty wise student of hu-
man nature says:
with one-ha1f the world only, as
all know, is character destiny; the
rest is bent and twisted, glorified or
by physiognomy, the great
potter"

HELP THE BELGIANs AGAIN.

Kansas stands seventh on the list
among the American contributors to
the relief of the Belgians. Only three
states, by themselves. are ahead of
her, New York, California and Penn
sylvania. Virginia and neighboring
states are grouped and given the next
place ahead of Kansas. And the
other agencies that did better than
Kansas are the Rockefeller founda-
ton and the Northwestern Millers
association. This is a good showing
for Kansas, but nothing better than
she should have done. Nor is it all
she should do. Man for man, the peo-
pie of Kansas are better off than are
those of any other American COM
tural activities, and the fact that they
were favored with big crops last year,
they have continued to enjoy a larger
measure of prosperity than has been
the portion of the bulk of the people
in this country during the past year
or so. More than that the prospects
for big crops this year with remunera-
tive prices are excellent. So the good
times in Kansas are likely to con-
tinue. Therefore, Kansas should re-
spond again to the Belgians' needs.
And the response should not be limit
ed to the special Easter offering in
the churches for this purpose. This
offering should be a big one, but Kan
sans can afford to do more.
