Your Neck and Throat

How often those telltale lines under
the chin ana the hollows which mar
the smoothneSs Of the throat reveal
ii secret OF years that might Just as
we'll he kept locked up The insight
iy double chin shouts age. All be-
cause during those years when every
woman should be making special ef-
forts TO maintain that graceful line OF
chin and throat She has not taken the
time or hasn't cared.
You must take care OF your neck
and throat II YOU want. to look your
best and ward off those signs Of ad-
vancinG age And just remember too
I that graceful. pretty throat has re-
+ deemed many woman from plain
ness
How can you do this" Hold your
, head up. Keep your chin raised; don't
allow il to sink towards the chest
Try 70 cultivate as long line az pos
siblc from the tip of your chin down
ward. You cannot do this If YOU form,
the habit OF sitting with your shout
ders hnnched up and your chin nearly
! on YOU" chest, or II you stoop when
you walk and cast your eyes on the
ground.
When YOU constantly relkx your
muscle they naturally lose their
strength. Then IL you are inclined
toward stoutness, superruous flesh
gradually begins TO appear. Instead OF
soft and !labby. forming into rolls OF
fat or drying up and wrinkIing away.
II YOU arc inclined to thinness the
lines and hollows will begin TO APP
pear Either condiIon is undeniably'
uusightly.
one dictate of fashion you must
avoid-high or tight collars. These
are fatal To neck beauty. and they Will
encourage that double chin in a SUR
sprisng manner. If you have acquired
some Of those ugly streaks few
drops of eau de cologne or lemon
Juice iii the washing water will help
remove them. Get the cold water
habit. It's more beneficial than any
other one thing | can suggest. Dash
! ii on regardless OF outside tempera :
turc. Always after washing In warm
water follow by these repeated dashes
of cold. and dry gently with soft
towel.
simple exercise which have found
exceedingly effective is to turn the
head slowly from side to side, stretch
ing just as far as possible each way.
Then backward and forward, ALWAYS
| stretching, for in this lies over half
the benefit. If YOU find this makes
you little dizzy, shrug your should
ers up and down quickly, and the SEN

Xmas Gifts All the Year
By NINA BULL

(Exclusive service the Survey Press
 Bureau.)
 On the morning of December , a year ago I went downtown to do a few bits of Christmas shopping and after falling to find the sort of note- book l wanted on the first floor of the crowded bookstore, I climbed upstairs and had long weary encountar with a girl clerk who seemed to know far less about the stock in trade than l did. After she had told me that there was no such thing as I described eventually succeeded in finding it for myself--a soiled sample, that is to say; and then I proceeded to wait endlessly while someone went down to the base ment for clean copy.
 While waiting I talked with a lady who had come to buy concert tickets --said to be on sale here. She had been handed from one clerk who knew nothing about the tickets to another who knew even less-and had finally
 KNOCKED THE STORE
 Being very frail, she had climbed the stairs with great difficulty and was now thoroughly disgusted to find nv sign whatever of tickets for sale

Useless Government Printing

Economy, howev as is often said, has but slight intert for the average member of Congre The way to impress members and g action is, perhaps, to take them to t lumber rooms and storerooms of t capitol and the departments, to sht them the 1000 tons of useless print matter piled up there, and ask the what they intend to do about it. In t last six years 6,050,000 copies of repol and pamphlets that nobody reads skins have been added to the dus covered depressing, forbidding heal This is due largely to the policy printing thousands of copies whe hundreds would meet every actual likely demand.
 The committee is evidently making brave effort to overhaul the gover ment printing office and improve management. If it circumvents or d feats General Apathy, it may accompli something and conserve pine forests well as money for floor and shelf spa for better use.

"A wife, I answered, first shot out of the box.
 Heavens, my dear lady, he ex- claimed, ' I could buy dozen dress suits year for what one wife would cost. Can't you suggest something practical, reasonable, sensible?"
 T have never understood why any man should be proud of being a con- firrned bachelor,' I said haughtily. sIt certainly lends him no distinction, much as he may seem to think it does. When a woman Is not welded she is dubbed an old maid and people look upon her as a sort of curious, unnatural person and all men reproach her, while a man, mere man, re- mains @ bachelor and gives you at

least one hundred excuses (but not one good reason) for; why he is and it is accepted"
 'Humph" growled the man gruffly
 "Why shouldn't a bachelor marry and assume the responsibilities of so- ciety, a wife, a fami1y?" I suggested presently. Why, indeed shouldn't he marry and give some struggling, mis- erable woman pretty hats and froclks and be glad to do it? The bachelor is the left over in the social world and however much he may try to conceal the fact he is dubbed poor fellow and 'undesirable,' else some nice woman would have married him long ago. The 'Adamesque' attitude that he assumes of being the whole show is entirely erroneous"
 Whenever I see the phrase, Arts and Crafts I think of woman, lovely wom- an," said my bachelor friend presently in what I considered a rather facetious tone. T don't live uncomfortably to begin with. As a matter of fact, at the present mo- ment am living most comfortably. My best friend and myself have a lovely apartment-two rooms and a bath; the rooms are well taken care of, which is quite different from the last place I was in; there the soled collars lay on the floor for days; you could write your name on any article of furniture in the room, he dust was so thick. Once I threw some papers in the waste basket and Jack and I made bet as to how long they'd stay there; it was exactly four days-and all this was due to a-woman-- who was supposed to take care of our rooms, darn our socks, and mend our clothes"
 Presently we moved" he continued, because I couldn't stand it any longer. It wasn't the kind of thing that I'd been

"Oh, we hated to-, he smiled back. "She was a good natured soul to be sure, but we didn't want to hurt any, body's feelings-leastl of all woman S. Now we can kick to our hearts content, the janitor now who gets it. But to return to our muttons; why should I marry when I am so beautifully situated and have a real home without half of the expense of wife? No, no; no wedding bells for me. The chief object of my gratefulness on next Thursday, the day set apart by our President as a Thanksgiving, in this year of our Lord, 1915-is that I am still unattached; a bachelor!' 4
 'T see nothing to boast of in that" said naively. By the way, what made you bachelor?''
 It was chance shot" but it ''took;' my friend blushed the deepest crimson like a debutante would, at a risque story, and then proceeded to give himself dead away.
 "Oh. come to think of it, he mused-- rather half aloud-as though I were not there, 'I never really cared for her" Love is so silly; it's all stuff and non sense. It's ridiculous this thing of one man singling out one woman out of all the world and swearing that he cannot live without her.
 You can say that after seeing The Light That Failed and recalling those beautiful lines of Kipling's: There are three things in life, birth, death and love and it is love that makes the other two bearahle. Can you?''
 He was as silent as the grave.
 Besides, the best regulated bach elors," I reconstructed, "are those who continue to look forward to the girl they left behind Who mends vour

clothes now that you've left the old lady who was supposed to perform that duty for you in the dusty, musty old house you lived lin?"
 "A sewing woman does it for 50 cents week for Jack and me-" he said quietly. That's cheaper than a wife" You have no finer feelings" I de- ciared. Your mind is bent on money alone you are stingy, and of course If you are putting marriage on a com mercial basis and you are too much oe 6 tightwad to pay for what makes you comfortable and happy, why then let's discontinue the conversation You are hopeless.
 There was time when men had to marry" he said, looking at me curi : ously. Now they don't; a wife is a useless appendage, as unnecessary as mustache; as expensive as an auto mobile, and ofttimes as disastrous as it's results. I live and breathe and have my being now without any wom- an to interfere with me and tell me what I can do, or what I can't, or what l can eat or drink and what I can't. and frankly I say here in your pres- ence, regretting that it must be a fem mine presence, that the chief cause for which I shall pour out my grati- tude on Thanksgiving day is that have no wife to bother me; that I am still a bachelor"
 eff a single woman were to say that she was going to render thanks on that blessed day for being unmarried" suggested, you know that deep down in your heart of hearts you wouldn't believe her."
 Certainly not, said the confirmed bachelor T never believe what women say on general principles
