KEEP ROOMS VENTILATED.

From the fall closing to the spring
opening of windows and doors the
chances of health are 60 per cent lower
than during the free-and-easy life of
summer.
1t is of vital Importance that an up
per opening be kept in every living
room, kitchen and sleeping apartment
for the escape Of the foul air emanat-
ing from life, labor and decay.
Rooms that are not provided with
an upper register or window ventilator
can be perfectly ventilated by lower
ing the window q fraction Of an inch.
This imperceptible opening is a regu-
lar life insurance.
If this precaution is needed all win
ter long, day and night. there will be
a reduction in lung and throat diseases.
In consumptive cases this law should
be rigidly enforced.

TO FRESHEN RIBBONS.

For pink, get a small glass jar OF
color paste (red) for coloring FROST
ings on cake.
When pink hair ribbons become fad
ed. wash with white soap, Dissolve a
very small amount of the paste in
enough water to cover ribbons, let
stand half an hour or longer. Squeeze
out and iron between cloths.
For blue, after washing the faded
ribbons, let stand while in strong
bluing water Squeeze and iron.
Yellow ribbons may be treated in
the same way, using saffron to freshen
them. Steep a tablespoon of saffron in
a cup of water. Strain and put in the
ribbon.

Do you think he

we are good friends. Do you think he
cares for me? CURLEY.
o. He cared for you or he would
not have spent money on a layalliere
The thing for you to do is to find out
who sent it and return it to him. A
little girl of IA should not accept jew
elry from a man.
~ He probably likes you at pres
ent. But don't ego" with him, dearie;
/ just be friends with him.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: o. | have a
boy friend whom | admire very much.
He seems to like me, too, but not so
much as would want | am certainly
not forward with him. In fact | some
times think | am too quiet. What can
| do to make myself more agreeable to
him?
(2) A boy asked to take me out one
evening | had already promised an
other friend and so could not go with
him, although | would much rather
have done so. Is it likely that he thinks
| did not want to go with him?
CD | work in town near my home.
If a boy brings me to my boarding
place in the evening should | ask him
in. as he is acquainted there?
az l have ben troubled lately with
my face breaking out. Is there any
thing l can do for it? S1BYLL.
o. You cannot always tell how well
a boy likes you. Be your true self
and you will be more attractive | think
than with an assumed personality.
(2) No. 1t is likely he believed
whatever you told him.
60 If the people at your boarding
place do not object and if it not after
10 o'clock
"a Keep regular hours, sleep eight
hours a night with your windows
wide open, eat wholesome and not
rich and greasy foods, don't eat candy
wash your face thoroughly several
times a day with a good face soap and
it with cold cream.

mrs ELIzABE TE0NIoI1Vl

Dear Mrs. Thompson: My son is ~
years old. He is exceptionally good
looking and has a pleasing personality
He dances well, plays cards and IS iohu
of athletics, and in fact is blessed VI
rather handicapped with almost all the
charms that make young man pop
ular. There is hardly morning or an
evening when he is not phoned by girls
and asked to do something. he says
that he is annoyed, but | notice thal
he often accepts invitations.
He goes with one girl whom IKE
very much. She rarely phones MN
and if she does it is for something I'M
portant. If he isn't home she tells me
what she wants and asks me TO tel
him. Ny son likes her probably pct
ter than any other girl, but he doeSh
see her more than once a week ana
the rest of the time he is out WIN
someone. l am sure he doesn't drink
and his boy friends are very fine. IL
is the girls l worry about. Nothihs
| say seems TO do any good. HIS Ia
Their has talked to him seriously ABOUT
it a good many times, but it seems TO
do no good. Since my son is self-sup-
porting there is nothing we can do. Ii
he we're Younger we could keep money
away from him and then he couldn't do
so much. What do you think we ought
to to? MOlHER.
Your son has reached an age where
Won will have to let him do as he
pleases and the more you try to make
him see things as you do the less likely
he will be to do so. Let things run
their course. He will probably sicken
of the kind of pleasure he enjoys now
and turn to some girl such as you like,
When YOU approve of certain girl
don't let him know, because 1t might
make him lose interest in her. A young
man likes to mango his own affairs
without suggestions from older people.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: o. l re-
ceceived lavalliere from some friend
and no name was signed. Do you
think he cared for me since he signed
no name? | am IA years old
(2) | went with boy about two
years ago. We got cross at each other
about three times, made up, and now

ed an opportunity to meet America s
sweetheart. Miss Mary sPickford,
A special invitation Was issued IN all
Paramount exhibitors tn meet the popu-
lar and charming little screen star In
person Mr.. Ing,edue says Mary Pick
iord is a dainty little person who Is
just bubbling over with chcerfulness.
She asked how many friends she had
in Marshalltown and of course Mr.. In
slcdue told here the entire population
of Marshaltown, which numbers about
$1,000.
Saturday. July Is, was Paramount
day at the exposition and Mary Pick
ford was the star attraction. Thronss
went to the Coliseum to get glimpse
OF the Queen of the Movies" Police
we're unable to hold the crowd and in
order to reach her throne in the Para
mount booth. Mary was mounted onto
the shoulders of two giant policemen
and with six others wedged their way
thru the mass of struggling admirers
1t was just plain admiration and
proved her right to the title she has
lorg enjoyed-"The Queen of Screen
dom"
In speaking of the future of the mo-
ton picture industry, Mr.. Ingledue says
there is n general feeling of optimism,
and we are assured fewer but better
pictures with big stars and stories cor
rectly produced. also nothing but clean
pictures.
The exhibitor must also improve the
presentation, and the result will be an
increased attendance from the best cit
liens of every locality.
Mary Pickford's next great Para
mount feature will be "Hulda OF Hol-
land" Aug 20 and 81 Strand.
