DAINTlNESS

Do you always look dainty?
It is a strange thing that a great
many women and girls feel that it is
not necessary to look fresh or dainty
when they are at home. ANY old
thing" will do to wear about the house
when no one is around except the
family.
l think even the most careless of
these women knows that this attitude
is mistake. 1t is not so much be-
cause the woman lose a certain
amount of respect from her own fam
lily as it is because she loses a certain
respect for herself To make it a
personal matter, don't you always like
yourself better when you are dressed
up and looking fresh and dainty
After all, it is quite as easy to look
fresh and attractive when alone at
home as it is to go about looking
slovenly. When you are in your room
and resting it takes no extra time to
slip into a pretty neglige. This need
not. be expensive, for negliges can be
made up from low-price materials or
from old dresses. If you are working
around the house, negliges are out of
the question, but you should wear
neat looking house dresses so that
you are always presentable.
1t takes possibly one or two min
utes to do your hair nicely in the
morning, and to powder your face if
your skin is shiny These few extra
minutes are well spent, since they
make so much difference in your ap-
pearance. l intend this talk only as
suggestion because several readers
have written me on this subject in
the last week or so. Every woman
cannot be beautiful, but every woman
has power to be dainty if she wishes.
Bee-As you are quite tall. 5 feet. 6,
you should wear your dresses fairly
! long-that is. about to the top of the
ankle. Do your hair as simply as
possible, since you are still school

developed in one place and under

ENGLAND WOULD KEEP

(By Associated Press)


LONDON. Jan. 1.-THE British gov.
eminent is beginning to put into effect
it's plan to keep within the boundaris
of the British empire the emigrants
from England, Scotland. Wales and
Ireland, who want to seek new homes
in distant parts of the world.
. This empire settlement scheme has
been held in allegiance since the war
because there were so many soldiers
to be repatriated; but the first large
party comprising LOO emigrants has
just left for Australia. The party is
under government direction and the
emigrants received a certain amount
of government assistance
Sir James Connolly, agent here for
Western Australia, announces that for
the next two years, 1000 emigrants
will be sent to Australia each month,
their passage being paid by the gov.
eminent.
The government has openly express
ed its disfavor toward schemes for en-.
igration from the British Isles to

their number said:
81 want to present for nomination

best man for the job"
Nomination Unanimous.
The staid members hesitated. 1t
was a new departure in the ethics OF
exclusively business mems organiza-
tions. The nomination, however, met
with a rapid and unanimous indorse-
ment of the directorate, but they de-
cided to leave the matter of the pro-
priety of other action the woman
herself. The directors had wrestled
with the names of a score of appli-
cants, many of them experienced men
in the profession, but none. in their
opinion, sufficiently competent to lift
the organization out of it's lethargy,
which was brought on chiefly because
of the centering of all community in
terest in war activities.
At that time Esther Stock Kroger
was employed as manager of the Kear-
ney Motor company. When presented
with the proposition she reviewed the
prospect, which amounted to this: A
chamber composed of 143 members
and over $4,000 in debt, an accumula-
ton of deficits extending over four
years. Nevertheless, she accepted.

Heart Problems

Dear Mrs. Thompson: My mother
lives alone: my father is dead, and my
oldest brother is the only single one
of the children, but he lives with our
grandmother, who has cared for him
since he went to school. Now he feels
as though he ought not leave her, as
she is so old and perhaps not long for
this world. Yet he sees to the sup
port of mother, but that does not keep
her from being alone.
She has been keeping company with
a gentleman for the last two years.
lie is a very nice man and asked her
to marry. but not as long as his aged
mother, who is so dependent on him,
lives Just because he calls on mamma
and spends the evenings with her the
neighbors and street car men make
very disrespectfuI remarks about her
There is another man who calls
there quite often. He was her fathers
closest friend and has known her all
her life. He stops his car outside and
runs in for ten or fifteen minutes. He
never takes his coat off, and runs in
to say hello" and goodbye" so he
says. But it is just long enough for
a couplt of street cars to run by and
the operators to draw their own
conclusions.
The other day my brother, her
friend and two ministers were there
when my husband and l called. That
evening when my sisters husband
came home on the car the operator
asked him what he knew about my
mother, not knowing he was so closely
connected.
Mother does not know she is being
talked about and it would hurt her
terribly. If she has to know, what
can l do? | hate to tell them all to
stay away for she is so lonely and
know they mean no harm. Why can't
people see by my mothers face there
Is no guilt written there? Oh. why
don't they leave her alone when 1t
is only circumstantial evidence they
are judging her by? A DAUGHTER.
Life in town where everyone
knows everything about his neighbors
affairs is most difficult. The people in
such place feast upon gossip and
scandal anG close their eyes to the
good they might observe. Such Cos
sips are far more evil in my mind
than a person who commits the sin
Tor which they are condemning their
neighbor. 1t makes no difference
whether their talk is true or not, it is
deadly and ruins regulations SO that
innocent people are never respected
again.
l believe 1t would be wise for you
and your brother to talk the matter
over. He may find some way to pro
tect your mother without letting hel
know the truth. Perhaps she would
consent to have someone live with hel
if he urged it. If, however, he thinks
it best, tell your mother what is being
said and let her decide for hersel1
what better be done.
What a glorious world it would be
if people would mind their own bust
ness and correct their own sins.
