Beauty Chats
 By EDNA KENT FORBES
SLENDER ANKLES.

There are various artificial methods which claim to make the ankles slen- der. Personally I do not think much of them. One method Is to bake the ankles, the idea being that the ex- treIne heat melts the surplus flesh. I have seen very serious minded women sit with their ankles in some sort of electrically heated oven looking for all the world like caricatures of sew enteenth century people sitting with the feet in the stocks. However, this idea didn't occur to any of them and they went on having their ankles baked thin and being frightfully seri- ous abotu it.
 The woman who wants to make her ankles more slender does not have to go In for anything as elaborate as this. She can massage her ankles very vigorously morning and night, rolling off by the friction of her hands a, great deal of surplus flesh.
 She can wear high shoes in the cold weather which by their constant fric ton, reduce the size of the ankles. She can wear dark colored silk stockings, which by shadowing the ankle make them more slender than they are. She can choose shoes which give a proper support for her heels so that the ankles are not under a constant strain. All these things help in ma>k- ing the ankle shapely.
 Incidentally, wool stockings, though thick in themselves, do not make the ankles seem thicker. Wool stockings and low broad-heeIed Oxfords are the most sensible type of footwear for this season.
 Mabel-It is not unusual for one breast to be larger than the other. The muscles in your face seem to tighten up when you grow excited simply because you are very nervous. If you will remember this you can make yourself relax all over by a slight effort of your will-even when you are excited or upset.
 Ignorant - Your shoulder blades stand out in back because you are too thin-you are about l , pounds under weight. Build yourself up. by eating more, by drinking rich milk, Or talk ing olive oil.

DELIBERATE DAYS ON NAME FOR
CHILD BORN ARAlISTICE MORN;
is CHRTSTENED "JACK SMITH,

At IL O'Clock, Nov. Il, Of 1918,
when hostilities ceased and the dec
laration OF an armistice was signed
by the allies and German officials,
Jack Smith Samuels came into the
home of Mr.. and Mrs. j. E. Samuels.
32l7 Eighteenth avenue, this city.
Today, Jack is tho center of at
traction at his home, where rela-
tives and friends have come to visa
him happiness on his third birthday
anniversary. Among the stories be-
ing related today which occurred
following the arrival Of Jack on
Armistice morning. is one which
particularly entertained the com
pany.
The biggest problem facing the
parents when Jack came to this
world and brought peace with him,
was a name
There were all kinds of sugges-
tions. Each was applicable Each
was pretty and unusual. But none
was acceptable.
Every name from Pershing, Foch.
Wilson, Peace, Victory, France, and
even Armistice were sent in by
telegram to the parents, for the
child born at the eleventh hour, on
the eleventh day of the eleventh
month.
But the opposition against each
of the names over-balanced the de-
sire for the "name-of-the-minut :"
Pershing sounded too much like a
last name; Foch was too hard to
pronounce; Wilson was the man-Ct-
the-hour but not be the man-of-the-
years; Peace was to "sissifed":
Victory was for a girl; France was
too foreign, and Armistice might
cause the child to strangle learning
to pronounce his own name.
For days, suggestions were re-
ceived by the anxious parents.
Then. finally the question was
weighed What would the son say
when it grew up with a name like
Victory? Back to the good old
American neme the parents went.

Little Hope Held
 For Exemption On
 Assessment Work

That there is little hope of eXemp- ;ion on assessment work for 1921 and 1922 is the warning issued yesterday to local mining men by County Re- corder H. l.. Hutchinson.
 According to information received direct from Washington by Mir Hutchison. Secretary of the Interior A. B. Fall has declared himself unal- terably opposed to the passage of the bill introduced by Senator Bursum, of New Mexico providing for exemp- tion on patent and mining claims for 1921-22. and has stated that he will not recommend any extension of the exemption already granted for 1920.
 The Bursum bill has not yet come to vote in either senate or house but Senator Ashurst and Congress man Hayden have both given it as their opinion, says MT. Hutchison. that there is small hope of it's ever being enacted into law.

 Life

T am satisfied I wouldn't be alive today but for Tanlac," was the em- phatic statement made the other day by Thomas Warner. of 4s1 Mississippi street, San Francisco. Cal. foreman for the Union Iron Company.
 This medicine has actually added thirty pounds to my weight. which is remarkable in a man of my age, as I am now 70. l suffered for years with indigestion. nervousness and loss of appetite. 1 was so nervous 1 shook like man with palsy, and there were times when I didn't get a wink of sleep all night long. I had terrible spells of dizziness and once I actually fell. I lost weight until only weigh ed 105 pounds and was so weak and run down I don't think l could have kept going much longer.
 But from the time I began taking Tanlac I saw a steady improvement in my condition. While was taking it the flu epidemic came along and proved fatal to four men living in the same house with me, while I escaped with only a mild attack.
 q kept on taking Tanlac and kept on improving and now my appetite is fine and I can eat just anything I want. l never have a dizzy spell and hardly notice any nervousness at all. The improvement Tanlac has made in my condition is simply astonishing and there is nothing too good for me to say about it."
