SOME POINTS ON THE ART
OF KEEPING YOUR FRIENDS
They Explain Why che Man Woman Lacking Good Looks

not possess a very large amount Of good
looks but who Is extraordinarily pOpu-

person body invariably goes home
and steers for the mirror thinking
thoughts something like these: 'My
eyes are better looking. have nice
skin and my teeth would pass, in
crowd. How is it I can't have persons
always focking around me like that?"
A picture Of all this came to my mind
when read certain letter that came
from young reader the other day.
Here are the last two paragraphs of
it:

after I make them, boys or girls.
They like me at first as I said and
then gradually they drop off. I would

very unpleasant for me.
Please excuse this hasty letter, as
I am in a great hurry. Yours in
haste, NIB.
Now, little NJ. B., do you mind a

to give them the impression that you

mind is not ten miles ahead of the
conversation.

however, told me that it was success

this was a coat that | will venture to

invested would really be worth while

no YOU know why children love rag
- dolls best of all kinds of dolls in the
world. It is because they are so soft
and cuddly that they seem more like
real babies. That is one of the rea
sons why your child will be so delighted
with "Mary Jane" Big, blue. starry
eyes has Mary Jane. a quaint little
bonnet and a plain checked gingham
dress. She stands full twelve inches
in her stocking feet. She costs So
and she is quite the chummiest. most
cuddly doll you can ever hope to see.
It is from the japanese people that
our men have learned the art of ju-
jutsu. I don't know where the merchant
learned it but I shall never forget his
getting Andy on the floor one night
and mussing up perfectly good rug
as he taught him a number of ju-
jutsu stunts. You will anyhow. if you
know anything about boys, know that
they are very much interested in this
and you also know that it is good fol
them. A very interesting book has
been written on the art of jujutsu
explaining how it "works.' A copy
may be had for S1.50.
I wonder if Mary would have been
quite so contrary in her garden if she
had one of the adorable garden smocks
and skirts I found today. ! am sure
she would have greeted every one with
sunny smile if she had known her
costume to be irresistible. The material
in japanese crepe, which comes in an!
number of colors. The smock has @
trim white collar and cuffs and is laced
up the front of the waist with white
linen tape. The contrast of the white
against the pale pink or cool green. or
whatever color you prefer, is most at
tractive and the costume complete ha:
all the individuality and charm n most
