What do you think of it, world ?
Does the mere fact of physical par
entage give the mother A right which
takes precedence over all other con-
alterations? Or is the right to mother
to be determined by service as well
as birth? In most courts physical
parentage claims precedence. Yet
under certain circumstances she is
forced to waive her rights.
This situation is complicated by cer-
tain occurrences which should not be
allowed to affect the decision. There's
evident resentment at the fiance's
elopement with the other sister and
q feeling that the children should be
retained partly in expiation for the

A man has right to marry where
his heart dictates, and although the
method chosen in this case was a
sneaky one, it does not lay the man

doned children does SO obiigate them.

would give the mother her chance,
but she should also be forced to rec
ognize the obligation. She could have
her children half the year, provided
she. proved herself worthy care
taker But the sister should have
them the other half. during which
time their mother must contribute to
their support. Judges, however must
follow precedent and legal technical
ity rather than the dictates Of their
hearts. It might not be legally possi-
BILE so to dispose of the children, but
would it not be ethically right?

Expressive Eyebrows.

For a long time there has been such
a craze for what I have called hair
lyme eyebrows that MANY beauty
shops have made fortunes catering
solely to this fad. 1t is a mistaken
| idea that these very thin eyebrows
are Expressive" They are not even
fashionable, in the best sense of that
! word, because the really fashionable
woman never goes in for extremes.
As a matter of fact. the rather
| heavy eyebrow has a great deal more
character than the thin. The only
danger is that IL it is too thick it will
lend heaviness rather than character
| to the expression. So we come again
to the great solutfon--moderati in

If your eyebrows are too thin or too

or ointment on them to encourage a

| lash stain, but this must be carefully
done SO the artificiality is not sus-
pected.
If the eyebrows are too thick, there
are two well known remedies, neither
| of which will take you to an expen-
sive beauty shop. One is to run a
| brush soaked with mucilage over each
eyebrow, drawing the hairs together
with the finger and letting them dry
SO. This is mostly for unruly eye
brows, and is so effective that some
times the coarser hairs drop out after
a few weeks OF this treatment.
The other treatment is TO pull out
all the hairs that grow too far above
or below the eyebrow with a good
pair of blunt-e edged tweezers. A per-

TOWNSEND.

MISUNDERSTANDING. Townson.
RACIAL oRIoiN-EnsIish.
soURcE-LoeaIIty.
The family name Of Townsend ranks
high in point of numerical strength
among peoples whose ancestry goes
back to medieval England. 1t also
ranks among the oldest of English
family names. And there is a reason.
When local communities grew 80
large. as they started to in the elev-
enth century, that some method was
needed in everyday speech OF. DIFF
ferentiating between many men of
the same given names, 1t was nat
ural that a mans neighborS should
pick out for that distinguished char
acteristic the most prominent thing
about his appearance. his mode or NE
the place where he lived, or his par
entage. Such descriptive additions to
his name did not always stick at first.
A man might be known by two or
three such in his lifetime, AND his
children might be known by others
centage Of them would stick to his
sons as well, and so gradually
through the succe eding centuries the
system Of hereditary family names
was built up.
Towns in those days did not have
more than one street or road. unless
they were of considerable size. Hence
there were only two ENDS" to the
average town, and the phrase atte
(at the) towns end" therefore became
quite definite and convenient de-
scription. AS a mans children gen.
orally lived where he did this name
and others OF it's class were among
the first to become crystallized into
true family names. Townshend and
ToWnson are both variations of the
name which sprang UP after the orig
inal descriptive sense was lost, as at
tempts to spell the name as 1T sound
ed in ordinary speech.
