The child who is cruel to- animals will develop into a cruel man or woman. You know the old sayings, Water reaches its level" History repeats itself,n and dozen other mossgrown adages. each of which should sound warning note In the mothers ears, but she disregards all warnings and sees only "cuteness ID everything the child does.
 Children should be taught to treat animals kindly. Many country child makes pet of every hen. duck and calf on the farm, and it is common sight to see fowls and calves follow ing children, as the dumb creatures know a caress or a few crumbs will be given them, And, on the other hand, how ofteh one sees them run ming in terror from some child, who. stick in hand, is trying to catch them. only to beat them.
 Mothers, do not worry about the future of your country, or wonder how it is going to be governed. Learn to govern your child and see that his heart is trained right. There is cute ness-cuteness of the right kind and there Is what you call "cuteness," which is nothing but encouraging the child to develop into a cruel man or woman.

A curl dangling from a comb or pin, however, placed, often breaks the stiffness of a coiffure.
 When the back of the neck is not particularly pretty, if short stiff hairs grow there or the hair line is un- evenly awkward, a bunch of curls pinned under low coiffure will hide as much as charity and is, moreover, consistent with new fashions. This is youthful hairdressing, however, and should not be attempted by the woman who is beginning to show signs of age, as it is apt to make her look ridiculous. Rather should she pin the two very small curls at the neck. one at either side This ar 'rangement is reminiscent of the days of tho Louis in the courts of France when Madame Pampadour started the craze for the elaborate cultures which grew to such enormity that women could barely pass through the doors. Their hair was dressed per- manently for weeks at time. Surely we have improved in hygiene!
 Sometimes the short hairs at the back of the neck can be trained into curls like those two small ones in the picture. This, of course, is possible only when the hair inclines to curl. Brushing will help, but very small

Some hair is apt to be stubborn at this point For the woman whose hair all ways f1ops just in front of the ear a small curl will often prove becom- ing. This is more graceful than the "spit curl" fad of year or so back. It is Spanish in it's suggestion and besides softening the hair over the ears wiR. match the Spanish trend of dress and coiffure arrangements should one choose to follow this lead.
 A last word. If you decide to make use of the artificial curl-and there is nothing to be ashamed of in doing so be sure that they match the hair exactly, and pin them on securely!
