RED SKIN

Unusual redness of the skin depends upon the overiilling of the capillaries. the tiny blood vessels in the skin. It is natural in those of a fresh and flor i'd complexion. to those who blush, in the general redness consequent upon a warm bath. friction of the surface and exercise. Long exposure to heat. cold and moisture produce a purplish redneSs of the hands. The hands are cold and pressure with the point of the finger leaves a light colored spot to which the blood very naturally re- turns, showing a very sluggish circu- lat1on in the skin. Ye this condition may coexist with perfect health.
 Redness may be due to disease and then 1t may be either diffused or local ized. Diffused redness is seen in many levers. especially in children; or after full doses of belladonna or hyoscya- mus. Localized redness is often seen In the flush upon the cheeks of peo- jle who have consumption. in the red ness of one cheek in acute pneumo- mia, and in one sided redness, which attends some attacks of migrainous headache. In certain cases of anem:a called by hhysicfans red chlorosis, the flushing of the face is so marked that at first the existence of a deficiency in the blood may be quite unsuspected. The dusky redness of the face and the limited red areas on the nose in chronic alcoholics is familiar.

year-old girl. I think you should be allowed to have boy and girl friends and to entertain them in your home, but I feel your parents are quite right in objecting to have you go out nights with friends. At your age it Is just as well to go to picture shows and such places which would take you out at night with members of the family.
 Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am en- gagged to a young man who is faith less to me. We have been engaged for two years and both of us have worked hard so that we could save money to marry and start housekeep- ing All this time I have trusted my fance and believed he loved me as dearly as loved him, but now l can no longer believe in him.
 It has been rumored that he was interested Tn his stenographer, but I refused to believe any thing against him. Then I began to see him in his automobile taking her home from work.
 Last Sunday night he phoned that he would be unable to come to see me. After I had left the telephone became more and more excited and I made up my mind to go to the vicinity of her home. because I knew where she lived, and watch for him. got there at a quarter of eight and about half an hour later he drove up. did not let him see me there and he does not know I saw him.
 What would you advise me to do?
 MOLLY.
 The only thing for you to do Is to give up the man. Surely you do not want to marry some one who cannot be trusted and who will bring great unhappiness to you because of his in terest in other women
 My advice is to break the engage nent now and not wait until he asks YOU to do so. It Is evident that be- fore long he will tell you the truth and ask to be released.

HAVE YOU EVER CROCHETED
 AN INFANTS AFGHAN?

Whenever see a discontented face, in this world of many tasks, I always want to say to the woman who is wearing the unhappy look. why don't you do something for somebody for instance. crochet an afghan for somebody's new baby?- There Is to much work to be done in the world for any one of us to sit apart and be gloomily idle"
 know of no happier experience than crocheting an infants afghan. It is such a simple thing to make that even one who is inexperienced at cro- cheting, can succeed at 1t. And when it is all done and topped with splash ing pink Cor b1ue) bow in one corner well, the person who made it, can't help feeling a glow of pride!
 The following directions are sim pie:
 Cream White Infants Afghan with Pale Pink Border: Buy six balls of cream white, four-fold German town and one ball of delicate pink. Use either a bone or ceIluloid crochet hook size z.
 Centre: Make a oh 2e inches long, trun, skip oh, 1 c c. repeat from ~, end with 1 c. oh 1 and turn.
 Row 2: '1 d c through both strands of s c. 1 c through both strands of C. repeat from :, end with 1 d c, oh 1 and turn. Row is the pattern row to be repeated for 80 innches (do not break yarn).
 Edging: Turn and work 1 pattern row all around afghan. Change to the pale pink, . 4 8 c in sts, oh 3. 1 sl st in last and repeat from. Increase enough at corners to make flat.
 This is all there is to it, except put ting the "splashing'' pink bow on!

Desr Mrs. Thompson: I have a boy friend who lives in another city. He writes once a week. I have an- other boy friend whom I like very much. How can I tell my our-of- town friend not to write without hurt ing his feehngs2 I am a girl in my teens. THANK YOU.
 You might write to the out-of-town boy less and less frequently. Or if immediately, tell him that you are interested in someone else. His feel inEs may be hurt, but he will ge. over it.
 Dear Mrs. Thompson: My finger nails are so brittle and break off close to my fingers and my hands are fu warm water they get tender and sore. Please tell me what to get fo- 5 them. A. B.
 After taking your hands out of wa ter apply the following lotion: Gly- cerine, ounce. bay rum. 2 ounces; carbcIic acid. 20 drops
 This lotion will keep the hands in a soft. white condition and will proo- aJ,ly improve the condition of the nails. If they still remain brittle, however, after using the louor. 6 week. get some sweet oil at the drug store and rub it into the nails evet ; night
 Dear Mrs. Thompson: am a gil of IT and I am not allowed to go out with boy or girl friends. I hardly ever go to any moving picture shows am only allowed to go to school and church Do you think that 1t right?
 One Sunday when I was going to church a young fellow threw snow halls at me. Why did he do that?

 Subscriber:-The best thing to da in the case of a soft corn is to have a chiropodist treat it, but if that is not possible a good home treatment is to isolate it with absorbent cotton on which there is some powdered alum. These corns are usually found between the toes and are partially blister and partially callous, which makes them more troublesome to cure than the ordinary corn- The powdered alum will dry up the blis- ter and the treatment after that will be the same as for the ordinary corn
 In the case of any kind of 8 corn. never allow friction or pressure from the shoe. Wear felt or chamois ring around the corn to protect it and if 1t Is between the toes cover it well with absorbent ootton-

THE CHILD'S DIET.

The importance of the child's diet upon it's future health and good looks is so great that too much cannot be written about it. A great deal has been written about it-and' yet the mistakes that even intelligent parents make would be ludicrous if they weren't often so serious.
 I used to dine often at a nice lit tie family restaurant-the familiar sort where the waitress knew each customers name and history and pet dishes and where in the old days one dined beautifully for 60 cents. But this is beside the point-a nice look ing young couple came almost every evening, with their four-year-o daughter. They ordered tea-strong. So did the child-and drank it every evening. I wonder what her complex ion and nervous system must have been as She grew older! They were such an intelligent looking couple too-with nothing in common with some of the very poor people who cheerfu1ly stuff their babies with tea and coffee and bananas!
 Children should never have stin1u- lants like tea or coffee, it's bad for the nerves. They never should have white bread, it's not good for teeth or digestion Whole wheat bread will make strong teeth and healthy gums, and will give the child vitamines, aI- most lacking in white bread. Children need fruit and raisins and a certain amount of wholesome sweet simple cakes and buildings. Then they can get along without candy. which is too rich and sweet to be taken often.
 And they need plenty of fruit, and enough variety so they won't acquire prejudice to various dishes.
