Beauty Training For Children

Press it between the first and second fingers lightly. but firmly moving the fingers from the outer flare of the nostrils toward the bridge. A dozen or twenty times a day this gentle massage of the nose may be given. and the wee bit of cartilage and the delicate mus cles are sure to respond. nose more than any other feature, may be trained in it's infancy
 Is the mouth loose-lipped and shapeless. too large? Again light manipulation will do much to correct | this and make this feature prettier. Pinch the lips again between the first two fingers. working from the corners of the mouth to the middle and pinching with emphasis the mid dle of the upper lip to make the cleft deeper So with the lower lip, except that there is no need of emphasis at the middle It is better to dip the fingers into olive oil before the massage
 Are the ears too small? They may be gently stretched to larger proportions by lightly pulling down ward the lobe of the ear and by drawing the upper fold of the ear upward. It may be widened by d i careful manipulation backward Or, on the contrary, knew mother whose baby's ears were a trifle too them to normal size by gently crumpling them. The soft cartilage yielded to the compressing, and three years later when l saw the little girl again her ears were pretty and in entire harmony with the size of her 1 face and head.
 Do the child's ears lie back well against the head, as they should. or do they look close pressed against i it as a prune is squeezed in a box If they lie too close to the head they can be coaNed farther away by thrusting the forefinger beneath the ear toward the face A very effec- tive way to accomplish this Is to double up the ear under the child's 1 head when 1t goes to sleep-alte,- mating the right and left ears. Do the ears stand out from the head, as small sails driven by a strong wind? There is the device of the small tight cap made of per forated cloth and strengthened by transverse stitched bands These per, fectly ventilated caps hold the ears well back against the head, but per init perfect passage of air through the hair These ear training caps are admirable aids for the baby with bat-like ears.
 The eyes to be beautiful must be strong. To make them strong keep them clean. A baby's eyes should be cleaned with

 If in the morning the lids stick together, loosen them with the eye wash described, but rub little vase line or some pure olive oil on the rims of the eyelids at night.
 To assure good crop of hair, the soil should be nourished. Be gin at once to rub olive oil into the scalp once week or oftener. Keep the skin of the scalp loose by press ing it softly with the fingers be- ginning at the hair line and work ing back toward the crown-Ex.

DOES YELLOW MAKE YOU
 FEEL LIKE LAUGHING


 At Chromo therapy congress, re- gently held in Tokio, announcement was made of the result of a series of experiments made on persons afflicted with mental and nervous diseases, and on persons in the hyp- notic state It was found that by far the largest number of people responded to yellow and red lights and the classification was so as- tonishingly exact as almost to af ford a new diagnosis for disease.
 Of the persons who were above the normal sensitiveness to light rays, it was found that more than 70 per cent were easily excited to laughter under a brilliant yellow , light; that under a violet light 72 per cent were found easily responsive to sympathy and many wept; and that 93 per cent were conscious of bodily stimulation under a scar | let glow. A certain small proDOr tion, less than per cent were made scornful and irritated by the crim son light but these could not be stirred to sympathy by any phase of color.
 The color of brown conveyed to most of the patients the sense of fear, and vivid blue caused the eff feet of nervousness and perplexity The greens operated in very curi- ous manner, the light apple green being restful, the vivid greens caus- ing irritation and sense of annoy ance. A powerful absolutely white light increased energy, and a rose pink light gave the feeling of indo- lence
 When, however the question of translating feelings into color was tried the results did not tally Still 4 per cent stated that when they were merry they thought of yellow, and so per cent declared that a love poem conveyed to them the color of red. A highly nervous person, therefore, especially if mel ancholy, is apt to feel more content ed under lamps with orange shades The yellow light of candles is more conducive to merriment than the blue white of electricity.
 In a hypnotic trance the lights operated most powerfully. Extremes of opposite emotions were caused by the mere changing of lights and the passage from pleasure to terror was induced by the whirling of a colored isinglass screen before the powerful calcium light that was used for experiments. It has been known for some time that certain rays of light, the ultraviolet, for example are very helpful in curing certain forms of skin disease but the value of light and color in mental diseases is field as yet comparatively little known

CURING INSOMNIA
 IN THE BATHTUB.
Q Q Q o q Q Q Q q . e

Sleeplessness is nowadays becom- ing so common that it furnishes a serious problem for the nerve spe- cialists. Science now regards it as an actual disease of the mind, which, if long sustained, threatens eventual insanity.
 Insomnia occurs most frequently among persons of sedentary occu- patton. It is induced by mental strain and worry. The second reserve has been tapped and worn out and there is no third reserve to call upon
 In our intense mental activities. we are inclined to forget that our minds require complete rest and may finally become unable to rest. When the days work is finished the business man is too prone to go home and belabor his mind with worrisome plans for the next day
 Very recently the neutral bath" has come into vogue in the treat ment of insomnia and other nervous disorders. including even mild forms of insanity It has been applied in cases of insomnia with very hap py results. The beauty of the neu tral bath treatment is that any lay man can administer 1t himself, with out the trouble and expense of con sulting a nerve specialist.
 A bathtub is filled with water at a temperature of 97 to 98 degrees. During the period allowed in the bath, which should have a duration
