Life'sProblems
Are Discussed

The perpleXities of youth! Older
people have a way of treating them
Very lightly or else of belittling them
as matters of no consequence. This
is, OF course, natural; they, the older
people, are very prone to remem-
Der only their glad hours and to
forget the others, and they like to
think of extreme youth as an
apple blossom period of care free,
1isht-hearted gayety before the
serious responsibilities have had Il
chance to produce their SOLDERING
and saddening effects.
Ask any of these older persons,
man or woman, the question:
Would you like to be seventeen
again." and he or she will almost
invariably answer, Il would give
anything to be seventeen again if
] could know all that L do to-day"
And if you press the question and
say, NO; l mean would you like to
so back and be seventeen with lust
the ideas and views you held
then?' they will respond, in nine
cases out of ten: Moo; l don't
believe | care to live all my follies
and mistakes over again.
Which is tacit acknowledgment
of two things: The first, that they
know that Seventeen was not
season of much unmiXed happiness
as they now like to think it, and
the second, that when they say they
would like to be a boy or q girl
again they really mean that they
would like to look as they did at
the age and have the experience
and knowledge that life and fric-
ton with the world have taught
them.
The truth is that if Seventeen's
capacity for enjoyment is undulled,
its capacity for suffering is equally
poignant. Seventeen has no rush
light of experience to show that joy
and grief are more or less trans
itory. Neither has it acquired
that philosophy which teaches
that all things pass, and that
wrecked hope and passionate pain
shall be us tender things of the
Springtime sea- Consequently. its
doubts and perpleXities are the
more insistent.
l have a little bundle of letters
which / sifted out from the others
and laid aside for consideration.
They are all from very young peo-
pie and they express the same
longings and desires. They may be
divided into two classes; the first
class want to know how to ac-
quire social ease and grace, how
to be popular and admired, the
second class want Il recipe for sue
cess in life. Here is a letter from
one land;

CHARMING TYPES FOR DAYTIME
WEAR.


The styles are so varied this sea-
son that the woman who wears what
suits her taste and her figure is
fairly sure to find good authority for
1t. If she likes the oval skin, she
will find it spondored by Cheruit,
Doeuillet and other great dressmak-
ers of Paris. A splendid new devel-
opment is exploited in the frock of
plaid gingham to the left. The over
waist is cut out at the front to show
a girdle of plain linen to correspond
with the plain color underblouse. A
hemstitched collar turns over the
square neck. while the sleeves are
finished with fancy cuffs. In medi-
um size the dress requires yards
36-fnch gingham and yards 36-inch
batiste for the underblouse.
The woman who contents herself
with the serviceable skirt OF serge,
wearing 1t with separate waists, will
be pleased with the plated panel
effect at the right. The panels may
be omitted, however. The straight
belt is Of self-material. Rose pink
linen is used for the blouse, with col
lar finishing the V-shaped neck. It
fastens in single breasted effect.
Three yards 44-inch serge make the
skirt, while 21a yards linen are re-
.quired for the waist.

Relief from Eczema

Don't worry about eczema or other
skin troubles. You can have a clear,
healthy skin by using a little zemo,
obtained at any drug store for Csc, or
extra large bottle at $1.00.
Zemo generally removes pimples,
blackheads, blotches, eczema and ring
worm and makes the skin clear and
healthy. Zemo is clean, penetrating,
antiseptic liquid, neither sticky nor
greasy and stains nothing. 1t is easily
applied and costs mere trifle for each
application. It is always dependable.

but at any rate 1 received this let
ter yesterday:
Dear Mrs. Woodrow: I have a
helpful suggestion to make, which
is my excuse for writing to you. In
n recent article YOU quote the adj
vice given to "Timid Little Woman"
is was good. But as an addition to
1T, here is some very practical in
formation it works., which is
sure to help any of your readers
who will take the trouble to fol-
low it.
LAS you know. our mental hab-
its-in fact any of our habits and
characteristics-are the result of
previously held thoughts. People
who suffer from fear, embarrass-
ger, resentment, etc.. can over
come them if they wish to by fol-
lowing this easy system.
Take, for instance, bashful-
ness, which is the Little, Big
Dreadful Thing in the lives of so
many of the young people. After
one of them has been subjected to
conditions which brought on the
bashful feeling, let him so off by
himself TO a queit place, shut his
eyes, and go over in his magma
ton, thouSht DN thOuSnt, Just now
he would like to have appeared at
each phase of the situation, pic
turing himself as masterful, COM
posed, fully at ease.
And every time he suffers from
( bashfulness. let him repeat the
process, always picturing himself
as he would have liked to appear.
Before long his thoughts will be-
gin automatically to follow the
new thought-grooves, and he will
be no more bashful than | am now.
''The same scheme applies to
all other undesirable traits and
habits. Replace the bad thoughts
by. the desired ideal ones after
every fall and the old shall pass
away. 1t cannot be otherwise"

Jealousy Is Terrible Thing
DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:

l have been engaged for two years.
My fiance is very jealous and suspi-
clous. He is a cultured man a
West Point graduate. One afternoon
| was obliged to visit the dentist,
and, being detained there much lon
ger than / had contemplated, it was
already dark when l started for
home. In the car l met a young
man, a good friend of my father
and l accepted his offer to escort
me, since the way from the trolley
to my house is long and lonely.
On reaching my destination l
was about to thank my escort for his
courtesy and hurry into the house,
when my fiance, who had been pa
tiently awaiting my arrival, sudden
ly rushed out and in a fit of jealousy
struck my escort and demanded that
l return his ring.
Our engagement was broken off
then and there. Ever since my
fIance has shown his regret in many
ways. He says he has learned his
lesson and implores forgiveness.
OLGA r.
/ don't like jealousy. 1t is un-
generous, and it pays no attention
to the freedom of the individual. A
man of education and the sort of
training your fiance has had ought
to have learned self-control and yet
he conducts himself with brutality,
temper and shameful injustice. elf
you really love this man why not
put him on probation? Give him a
chance to prove his sincere regret
and if he manages to control himself
and to behave, overlook his past
mistakes in the light of future good
conduct. But 1 strongly advise
against your marrying him until he
has proved conclusively that he rec
ognizes his own fault and its really
criminal weakness and has gotten
the better of it,

HAIR COMING OUT?

Dandruff causes a feverish irrita-
ton of the scalp, the hair roots
shrink, loosen and then the hair
comes out fast. To stop falling hair
at once and rid the scalp of every
particle of dandruff, get small
bottle of Danderine at any drug
store, for n few cents, pour a little
in your hand and rub it into the
scaln. After several applications the
hair stops coming out and you can't
find any dandruff

this will be tried is not far distant.
But the scheme will be found to in
volve many difficulties, and may even
fail of it's purpose. Mr.. Dublin him
self says that the worse offenders
against their country's welfare are
generally beyond the need of such con-
sideration; and it may also happen
that noble-minded parents would be
found to resent the idea of receiving
any compensation other than the JOY
| they find in their children.
We think, therefore, that the statis-
tician of the Metropolitan Life lnsur-
ance Co. has not been able to find any
remedy for the evil he so clearly por-
trays.
There is but one remedy, and it is
not the religion of humanity, nor cult
of country; but is obedience to divine
law. The commandments of God, the
prohibitions of the moral law, influ-
encing and controlling the minds and
hearts of men and women-the re-
storation of God to world from which
false science has banished Him; these
are the remedies and there are no
others.
We do not know whether Mr.. Dub
lin understands this or not. 1t may
be that, like so many others of his
kind, he knows the truth but is afraid
to profess it. Such condition exists.
In many of the schools there are men
and women who accept personal
Deity but are not strong enough to
proclaim Him. 1t is an unfortunate
condition which will no doubt pass
away, when the schools resolve to
yield no more to the tyranny OF
pseudo-science. Until this time, We
must listen to addresses such as Mr.
Dublin has made, addresses which
