Scarecrow Helps to Make Friends.

"Good morning, sir" said Mathilde,
with a little curtsey.
There was no reply, which was
scarcely strange, as the gentleman
she addressed had body made of
sticks and a head of straw. He wore
a weatherbeaten black coat and derby
hat.
Nice morning were having" Ma
thilde went on. She and the scare
crow were on such very good terms
that she didn't miss his lack of con-
versation. She had run across him
her second day at her aunt's farm and
had made friends with him at once.
He was practically the only friend
she had, too. Her aunt and uncle
were not sociable people. They never
went anywhere and no one ever drop
ped in. They went to church. ii is
true, but they left right after the
services, with only mods to their neigh
bors. 1t did not occur to them that
their young city niece who had come
to live with them needed friends her
own age.
Mathilde never said anything about
it, but she thought sadly of the long,
lonely Summer ahead of her before
school opened and she would be able
to meet boys and girls of the neigh
borhood.

carefully selected ingredients. and that
is not detrimental to the complexion in
any way. 1t must, of course, be abso-
lutely free from alkalies or caustic
chemicals OF any kind. Every house
wife knows, in a general way, the
effect OF free alkalies upon the skin.
You know how your hands shrivel and
wrinkle up, afterward becoming dry
and hard. when you have been house
cleaning with caustic soap, caustic
potash or I've, and these are the same
kind Of alkalies that are used in the
manufacture of soap. If you notice
that your face has tendency to feel
dry occasionally. II II has a tense feel
ing, or if you find the flesh drawing
into fine little wrinkles, 1t probably
means that the soap which you buy
is drying 1t too much.
A simple test which soap statesmen
use to discover the presence Of free
alkali is TO take a bit Of the soap and
touch IL to the end OF the tongue. II ii

not combined with the acid-it will
burn. The best toilet soaps are read
ily edible-much as we might prefer
something else as a steady diet.

All of us, and that includes little
children, like to feel that we count.
We like to feel that other people stop
to consider our feelings and our COM

touches us. If we feel that they have

likely to resent it, because we feel
that they have deliberately said: You

green. Such blues as horizon blue
were a trifie too sedate to satisfy
many women, but turquoise blue
pleased them.
THE first appearance OF turquoise
blue was in the millinery shops,
and the first medium apparently, the
little soft sport hat of felt. They say
that Caroline RebouX of Paris was the
first of the milliners to realize the pos
sibilities of this color. She used IT first
a good II months ago, but without
making much impression with it until
recently. This shade of turquoise has
been used sparingly as trimming for
navy blue costumes. Sometimes
hat Of the color has scarf to match
that tones up dark suit very well.
Some one has explained that the
new turquoise has gained in favor for
the reason that it Is greener than
the ld-time turquoise that was pop
ular a good many years ago. They
say that this turquoise blue is more
of a blush jade than anything else.
For my part it seems most like the
color of a turquoise that has been
worn for long time and has taken
on the greenish cast that seems to
come as result of contact with the
human body.
A certain clever woman. whose
name we must not use, wears a pair
of turquoise earrings of precisely this
color. Before her marriage to
rather we'll known millionaire she al
ways wore earrings, her favorites be
ing a pair of turquise stones. She
went on wearing earrings after her
marriage. though her husband said he
detested them. He threatened to make
way with the turquoise earrings in
particular, and fearing that he would.
this insistent young woman slept with
them in her ears, even bathed with
them, so that they could not be taken
from her. SO it happened, through
being so constantly worn, these ear
rings took on n charming greenish
cast, and this charming young woman
was seldom seen without them. The
turquoise color now in favor is of
much the same complexion.

Selecting Soap for the Face.

The custom Of using soap and water
as handy and economical way OF
cleansing the skin was established by
our worthy grandparents so many
generations ago and handed down
through so many families of beauty
seeking daughters that its use has
virtually become a second nature
with us
But every now and then some one
throws monkey wrench into the
works. The busy skin specialists warn
us that we are running the texture Of
the skin by the immoderate use of the
wrong kinds of soaps, and each sea
son d new cleanser is prescribed which
il is hoped will be more satisfactory
But there is no denying that soap
does cleanse the surface. and when
we know of no better way is highly
desirable.
OF course. various skin foods and
cold creams are effective in removing
the dirt, too. Common corn meal
rubbed on the face or sewed up in
little cheesecloth bags with a bit Of
CASTLE soap will keep the face clean,
and 1t may be advisable to use ii oc-
casionally. Almond meal and bran are
also beneficial, and many people find
them more pleasant to use because
more delicate in flavor and odor Oat-
meal with Clipped soap makes a per
feet and satisfactory cleansing agent
But even after using these sapo-
naceous powders for "a while there is
nothing which feels 50 good to the
skin or which after all gives such a
delicious, clean. refreshing sense of
vigor as a good wash-up' with a
pure, pleasantly fragrant or unscented
soap. Perhaps most women use soap
on the face at least once a day, even
when they are partial to the prepared
cleansers

toned. Peppermint green is the color
of the newest felt sport hats. 1t >is
sometimes found in the new straw

sented than when a peppermint green
straw shape is trimmed with a wreath
of alpine green leaves. Alpine green,
ii should be explained. is just a little
lighter than. but similar to, the shut

French dressmakers certain dark
shades of green are regarded with ia
Vor of Autumn-notably cresSon or

Turquoise, which has suddenly

first to have come into notice via

fastidious women for a color for sport
