Hawaii will have Baedeker. This

her husband, II he happens to be fat

This sign Is universally exhibited
by the good looking women, with
grown and married children, who have
retained their willowy figures and
still have their own hair and teeth.
They never fail to relate at every op'
portunity how they were married
when they were very, very younge,

OF course there was never any

everything she sees, and especially
when she is horrlfled at everything
that young girls do. People who are
as young as the newest fashion, and
the latest dance, and the freshest
ideas, see no IMPROPERLY in them.
They belong totheir day and they
take them as a matte rof course as
they do their ham and eggs at break
fast.
To SYSTEMATICALLY three layers
Of chiffon Is az modest a dress as re-
inforced broadcloth was to her grand
mother; the fox trot as little sugges-
tive q dance as the minuet; she sees
nothing more indiscreet in showing
her ankles than her wrists, and she
discusses subjects with perfect pro
prtety that no perfect lady was even
supposed to know about thirty years
ago. That Is because she belongs to
this age, and these things are done
now, and they were NOT done in her
mothers and grandmother's time.
Therefore when you see a woman
begin TO hold up her hands in horror
at the way young girls dress, and the
way they go stalking around with
men, and the way they play golf, and
the books they read, and the bold
ideas they express, and the awful
way they go off after careers, why,
you are perfectly safe In setting the
lady down at half past fifty, or over.
Her ideals are those of her own
youth, when her grandmother and
maiden aunts were shocked at her
doings-on, and held up their hands In
horror over her.
The final sign of age in a woman
Is when she gets, to the place where
she cannot change her mind, when
all Of her mental processes have hard
ened into a set mould, and she is i'm
previous to a new idea. When you
find q woman who has gotten into a
rut, mental and physical; who holds
the same point Of view no matter
how situations change; who sits day
after day in the same chair at the
same window, and is upset If any OF
her little habits are broken into, who
thinks all the new styles hideous, the
modern books and actors not what
they used to be, who talks Of how
much better things were in her youth
and prophesies that the. world is going
to the dogs, she's old-as old as
Methusaleh, no matter what she told
the census man.
And that's the way to tell how old
Ann is.

BEAUTY CHATS

By EDNA KENT FORBES

The nervous woman is rarely
pretty. She may be extremely bsGAti-
full when young, but the rervcus
tension under which she lives newt
ably wears out her body. At twenty
Eve she looks near thirty, at. thirty
she seems forty, at forty, she's thin,
haggard, wrinkled, old.
So II you are the least bit neurotic,
take extra good care Of yourself.
Rest more than the ordinary woman
does, to overcome, the nervous strain,
eat plenty, for food soothes the
nerves, eat often to keep the blood
In the stomach. This does not mean
that occasional nibbles Of candy are

digestion.
Unfortunately, 1t is hard to con-
vince the nervous woman that she
must rest. She always means to,
but she never will take the time for

than any other sort Of woman.

eaten any time of the day or night.
1t means frequent nourishment at
regular periods. A good plan is an
egg and milk between breakfast and
luncheon and between luncheon and
dinner, and a cup of hot chocolate
and cracker just before going to
bed.
The nervous woman should rest q
lot to conserve her energies. When
possible, she should lie down in
preference to sitting down, as the
relaxation is more complete. It is
surprising the number Of minutes Of
rest that can be snatched between
the duties of the day. If the rest

will do double good. for it will allow
