BEAUTY CHATS
By Edna Kent Forbes.

! should take enough exercise to
strengthen all the muscles around
the waist and the abdomen. And
you must be careful IL you wear
corsets, that they hold in the hips
and not the waist. Another day ]
will talk more about the care of
the figure after childbirth and
when the baby is weaned.
Blue Eyes: The dark circles
around the eyes usually come from
some internal disturbance, which
is often that of a sluggish liver.
These circles do not indicate eye
strain.
Diana: No animal fats should
be used on the face as they are so
heavy they are not easily absorbed
and clog the pores attracting soil,
which becomes a source for the
growth of hair. Any tonic is APP
piled to the lashes at the roots
from the point of a fine sable
brush.
Constant Reader: The best soaps
for the skin are those made from
good oils, such as the old-fashion-
ed CASTLE soap and any number
of others, some of which are made
from olive oil. Superfluous hair
does not come from using soap on
the face.
Wanttono: If the lashes are rag
ged it will help them to trim the
ends occasionally. If you need a
tonic for them send stamped ad-
dressed envelope and shall be
glad to mail you a formula.

PETITIONS PRESENTED
FOR THE PAVING OF is
BLOCKS IN LAS CRUCES

tspectsi Correspondence to The journal
Las Cruces, N. NJ, Dec. 8.-Peti-
lions for the paving of sixteen
blocks in the heart of the business
district of Las Cruces were SUBJ
mitted to the town board of trus-
tees Tuesday evening by viii z.
Lapoint, publisher of the Citizen
and La Estrella. The petitions,
signed by the majority of the pro-
erty owners, call for the paving of
seven blocks in Church street, and
three blocks in Main street, also
the six intervening blocks. Mayor
Paxton today appointed a commit
tee headed by Capt. Charles Hill
to procure an estimate of the cost
and report to the board at an early
date.
Directors Of the Las Cruces
Chamber Of Commerce today au-
thorized Herbert w. Yeo to make
survey of a proposed county
road from Plcacho bridge, west of
Las Cruces, westerly to Cambray,
twenty-siX miles, which It was re-
ported by A. D. Crowder, county
road superintendent, will shorten
by four and seven miles, respec-
lively, the distance from FL Paso
and Las Cruces to Deming. The
directors also favored changing
the road from Las Cruces to Hatch
to run by way of the Leasburg
dam, making 1t an all-valley thor
oughfare. 1t IS reported that the
road can be built at a comparative
ly low figure.

Efficient HOUSE EEpING
By LAURA A. KIRKNiAN.

! we get by applying powders OF
pestes sold for this purpose. Al.
though there are many excellent
polishes of this sort on the market
care must be taken to choose Gne
which is not coarse grained, or
the silver will be scratched.
Silver may also be cleaned by
placing 1t in a receptacle, covering
1t with n strong solution of borax,
washing soda or potash, and bring
ing this to the boiling point. It is
then boiled about 30 minutes and
is next allowed to stay in the solu-
ton until 1t has become cold. Then
rinse 1t and wipe it with a soft
cloth or chamois. The result is
clean silver but not highly polished
silver.
Another way Is to place the sill
/ yer In a bright aluminium pan with
tablespoon each Of salt and bak-
Ing soda to each quart of water
used. Have the water hot, the salt
and soda measured, and the silver
ready to put into the pan as soon
as the salt and soda have been

a strange effervescence for a few
minutes and the silver must be in
at that time). After cleaning in
this way, put the silver into an
other pan, off the stove, filled with
hot, soapy water to which a drop
or two Of ammonia has been add
ed; rinse, then dry well. The re-
suit by this method, too, will be a
clean but lustcrless silver--but
many housewives prefer this meth
cd to any other.
If the housewife can afford to
buy one of the regular manufac-
tured silver cleaning pans now on
the market, she will derive much
comfort from it, These are made
of zinc and aluminium with wire
bars soldered across the bottom for
the silver to rest on. Salt and bak-
ing soda is then added to hot wa
ter as described in the paragraph
above, and the same method fol-
lowed.

DO YOU KEEP YOUR SILVER
CLEAN?


Silverware is like mahogany
furniture in this one respect; II
had better be put away if the own
er hasn't time to keep it clean and
polished. Dull or furnished silver
is most disturbing sight.
The tarnish on silver Ia silver
sulphide, which is the result of the
union of silver with sulphur. Sui
phur compounds are often found
in the air where either coal or
coal gas is burned, and these COM
pounds are also found in organic
materials such as foods, wool and
rubber. We are all familiar with
the blackness that results from
using silver with eggs or leaving
silver In contact with elastic bands.
Frequently this same blackness IL
caused by letting the silver come
in contact with wooden materials,
or with colored or bleached cotton
goods in the manufacture of which
sulphur may have been used-but,
because this fact is not as widely
known. the housewife is mystified
concerning the cause of the tar
nish.
Silver sulphide Is insoluble in
water, so ordinary washing will
have no effect upon it. If. how
over, the discoloration is rubbed
with common table salt and then
washed in ammonia water, the tar
nish will disappear IF ammonia
Is not used In the wash water the
article will tarnish again very
quickly; the reason for this is that
the silver chloride, a whitish COM
pound soluble in ammonia, which
has formed when the salt was
placed on the silver, remains on
the silver unless dissolved by the
ammonia--and is quickly acted
upon again by sulphur, tarnish re-
sulting.
There are many ways in which
silver may be cleaned, the most
common being by friction such as

DEV|S|NC PLANS
FOR MINIMIZING
BANK R0BBER|Es
Head of Protective Depart
ment of the Illinois Bank
ers' Association Looks
for a Reign of HoIdupS.

Chicago, Dec. S.-The open sea-
son for bank robbers has arrived,
according to Edward S. Arentz,
head of the protective department
of the Illinois Bankers association,
who is laying plans to forestall
what he describes as "the epidem-
ic of bank robberies which is upon
u.s." Mr.. Arentz has outlined
plan of bank protection which he
expects, if carried out, will minim-
ize bank losses from hold-ups and
burglaries.
Working through the county fed
erations of the state bankers or
ganization, bankers throughout IL
llnois are being urged to take up
the Arentz plan, which provides
for appointment of a deputy sher-
if for every bank in every town
and organization of a vigilance
committee in every large town.
The captain of the committees
also would be a deputy sheriff.
Mr.. Arentz suggests that shot
guns be placed in all places sur
rounding the bank, to be used in
emergency.
A regular crew Of four men, he
says, should be stationed at the
sheriff's office, with a high pow
er automobile, ready to jump into
the machine and speed to the scene
of any bank hold-up or any other
major crime. BY proper arrange
ment with the telephone company
which would be furnished with n
list of deputies, every deputy sher-
iff in the county would be notified
and guard thrown out to inter-
cept travellers on all roads leading
from the crime.
If the bandits have passed
through the circle Of deputies. 9TH
er towns would be notified and the
vigilance committee of those towns
would then take up the chase.
Two counties, La Sale and Du
Page, have already approved the
plan and appointed committees to
work out its installation. Other
counties are expected to take up
the plan as soon as possible to
work out details, according to Mr..
Arentz.

BEAUTY AND MOTHERHOOD

So many women write to me and
tell me they have lost their figures
and their beauty with the birth of
a baby, that l want to write today
especially for them. The birth Of
n child should not bring disaster
/, but only an added beauty, a full
blown mature beauty quite as at
tractive in its way as the beauty
of girlhood and slimness. This can
be done if you understand how.
During the months before the
child is born, you must take spe-
cially good care Of your hair and
your teeth. 7 would advise you
to go to a dentist every three
months-to keep the mouth in
perfect condition during all this
period. J would also advise you
to cut the hair back a little and to
use hair tonic every few days.
The most enlightened doctors
will tell you to massage the bust
and the abdomen with olive oil.
And as another hint regarding tho
care of the figure, be sure that
your corsets, If you wear any at
all, are of the proper sort.
The figure will keep its young
and elastic lines if it is well cared
for after the birth of the child. A
good physician and good nurse
know how this is done for the first
few weeks, but when you are up
and going about as usual, you

MARGARET ENVIES JOAN HER
COURAGE.
CHAPTER "a.

CHAPTER "a.
Joan introduced her mother e
the three or four boys and girls
waiting for her, then with many
"oh's" and "ah's' she plunged into
the surf. There was nothing cow
ardly about Joan Hayden, either
morally or physically. After the
first moment or two she was jump
ing the waves like an old-timer
instead of novice. Margaret
knew she would not be as brave,
and a sort OF grudging admiration
OF her child filled her mind. Sud-
denly she knew why she felt as she
did; why she grudged Joan her
bravery 1t was because of her
youth which Is always courageous.
Courageous because 1t does not
realize danger.
realize danger-not as applied to
the ocean particularly, but to ev-
erything in life. She longed mex
pressibly to feel careless of results,
to be reckless of what people-un-
consciously It was people as repre-
#-entcd by Joan-thought or said.
Sitting on the beach under her
sober colored parasol she looked
about her and thought her life had
all been like this. All the other
onlookers were shaded by gay in
consequential shades; rose, laven-
der, light blue and white. Her life
had been somber always; like her
sunshade. She had not even been
an onlooker to gayety, she thought
as she gazed at the laughing,
shouting group In the water.
And she had led this gay, dun
colored life from choice.
How could 1 have done it?"
she said aloud.
Yet she had been happy, she
unused, happy until she began to
realize she had wasted her youth;
to long for the vanished years to
come again that she might relive
them.
MAY I enjoy the shade with
you ?"
Unseen and unheard Craig For
roster had come upon her. For
several moments he had watched
trying to read her thoughts, puz-
zled by the changing expression on
her face. the longing in her eyes,
and his failure to understand her |
changed mood of the hour before |
when Joan had disturbed their
piazza tete-a-tete.
'If there is room" She moved
the parasol so that 1t shaded his
eyes as he threw himself on the
sand besides her.

asked nodding toward the bathers.

MAY ASK LEGISLATURE
FOR A CLOSED SEASON
ON DEER AND TURKEY

Santa Fe, Dec. S.-The game
commission probably will go be-
fore the legislature when II con-
venes with a recommendation for a
closed season on deer and turkey,
Game Warden Thomas p. Gable
stated today. The season was
shortened several days by the last
session.
The toll for the season lust
closed was estimated by Gable at
$50 deer and probably a few more
turkey on the basis of reports from
his deputies all over the state.
