READ YOUR CHARACTER By DiEby Phillips,
 copyrighted 1891
 COARSE SKIN

If you wan to influence coarse.skin- ned man be careful not to get emotional or hysterical about it, for these things will probably irritate him. You can be sure they won't command his sympathy.
 By the same token you're likely to get little out of a coarse skinned woman by the mere earnestness and vehemence of your appeal.
 You have to look pretty closely at skin to determine whether it is coarse or not It's not a question of calloused hands, or of roaghness due to exposure. It's mere matter of the fiber of the skin itself, of the pores. If upon, close irl- spectioh you can see the pores easily, and they are large. you're looking at coarse skinned person Large pores show up readily around the nose. It's a good place to look for them.
 Of course, there may be other things that modify the story told by the coarse skin in the individual, but if other things ste equal you'll say that it is a decided indication of less than average sympa thy. And sympathy, It should be under stood. is the ability Or the procifvity to imagine yourself in Anothers position, and to appreciate keenly the feelings ur@ der which they labor.
 Ccarse-skinned people are somewhat lacking in this ability, though they may have a keen sense Of justice and very hieh ideals. And not being sensitive themselves they are more than usually prone to hart the feelings of those who Are more sensitive than themselves, and further, to take it rather calmly when they ieafn they have done so. For the rest they're likely to have rather sound juagfhkht, be hafd to influence by any means ana De tenacious in their opinions yet &hoie-heated and frank about il when converted to other views.

us step on all the high places" and they both reach the other side dry shod.
 The negative mother Or teacher is so full of "don'ts" that she herself and the little ones under her become mys- tified and discouraged. It is like con- stantly knocking down blocks before anything has been built.
 The positive educator constructs A bit of honest praise for something well done builds up within fhe heart praises, discernment and love of the right, confidence in the good that he can do, and a great desire to do an- other good thing. Such moments of recognition please even the grownups, and how much more are children help edi The mother says. My child was generous today in sharing his toys with his visiting cousin" and the child glows with joy at the words, ponder ing over them. Thus his character is being formed and on the side of good.
 Why should mothers and teachers ever fali into the fruitless, negative way, when the good fruit is all on the positive side of the fence.
 If we are tired or worried, we can- not inspire our children. We ourselves must seek inspiration and calm pcise which brings it.
 Froebel says:
 If you would bind you little one to you,
 Bind your own soul to all that is high
 and true
 And let it's light shine clear through
 all you do!
 Some people always meet us with a tale of woe and continue to talk neg atives. We come away Jagged. Others talk about the beautiful, seeing good all about us. We are able to give something constructive to those we meet. especially to the children, who will surely grow through our recogni- ] tion and nurture of every little i'm pulse of good spring up within them If we look. for good in our little ones

hrA1rH AND REALTY.

Physicians Say that women in whose eyes tears gather quickly have the most beautiful eyes. They Ere bright. ten- der and attractive. Women with the more delicate nerve systems weep more easily.
 A well-combed head of hair always lends itself to charming coiffure. It makes but little difference whether one has natural wave, a permanent wave or straight locks, If they are well combed they can be dressed to enhance the charm of any woman.
 Since the feet suffer from lack of ven- tilstion and from poor circulation, an excellent thing is to massage them for few moment every night. This is par ticularly good if your feet swell up dur ing the hot weather. If possible, bathe them in warm, salty water; in any case, dust them with talcum powder and then massage, using the fingers and thumbs of both hands. No particular massage motion is necessary; plain rub ping or a circular motion as all that lS needed.

SHALL WE SINK OUR sH1Pss

Ships. ships and more ships" was ths imDloring cry during the war in re- Epcuse to which the United States rush cd ship construction in an unprecedent- ed manner. helping. by just so much. to win the war. Visions of a restored American merchant marine were held out when the war should be over but the dream seems to have gone awry, and the part of our feet that is in con trol Of the shipping board is raising eerious question as to just what ought 10 be done with it.
 Now comes Chairman LaslOer of the shipping board to ten the house appro- rriations committee that there are two ternatives-eifher sink the ,445 ships or provide SIPS, ,oOO. 900 for maintenance. As Co the wooden ships alone. 1t costs $50 900 a month 10 keep them, and they cannot be sold or given away. The an- svvor must be found quickly, for he tells the commitree that while they are mak- Ing ID their minds to have the courage co sink the ships 1t will cost as much money as it would to try to do some constructive work to save the situation.
 Naturally enough we recoil at the idea of taking these ships out to sea and sinking them. Neither do we want to tavs them fall into foreign hands. Now that we have the ships for a merchant marine in our hands, we don't know what 70 do with it.
 E we should cary out the practical even f falcituL suggestions of the ship ping board chairman. that we sink the ships it would place us in the position where we were before. of having to de- pend largely upon foreign bottoms for uur ocean transportation This brings the counter proposition, as to why our Ehips are not carrying more foreign car Eoes The answer lies In the fact that our cost of operation makes it impossi- hle for us to carry foreign cargoes at O profit, and there is no use carrying tfeni al a loss Finally it smmers down l5 cur restrictive shipping laws, of which the.
