PUTTING YOURSELF OVER
BY Lucy lowell

HERE Is something for You to
IA paste up where you can see
it often If you're interested in
success.
It's a set OF nine rules for put
ting yourself over, and it works.
It's the basis or which one
woman has founded a large aud
rushing business which grows
larger all the time since it is held
fast to the rules.
She is a reallor, in a New York
town. And Mrs. Spauling has
such confidence in the rules that
she passes them along, via print
ed leaflets in her mail, calendars
and any other way likely to-
reach the public. She heads them
Promise Yourself"
To be so strong that nothing
can disturb your peace of mind
TO talk health, happiness and
prosperity to every person you
meet.
ITO think only of the best. to
work only for the best, and to
expect only the best.
ITO be just as enthusiastic
about the success OF others as
as you are about your own.

scented its first performance. They
charged a 25-cent admission and
the big school auditorium was
packed to the doors. Then they
donated half the proceeds to
charity and used the rest for
purchasing plays, music and a
whole summer full OF good times.
Every week the club met, and
each time new names were sub
mitted for membership. It seemed
that every youngster OF the
awkward age within a radius OF
miles was as much in need of
something interesting to do as
Edgar and Frances Foster had
been.
The social hour that followed
the club meeting was, of course.
the reason why so many clamored
for membership. But even at
that, they were enjoying limo
cent amusement. And after all,
1t Is much less expensive, much
less eart-breaking and much
more effective to keep restless
youngsters out of trouble than to
get them out after the mischief
shas been done.
In your immediate neighbor-
hood--perhaps in your own home
there are boys and girls who
are silently begging for some
thing worth while to do; for some
entertainment, for an opportun.
ity to be with other boys and
girls and for a chance to be
happy without having to suffer
any consequences. And that isn't
much for youth to ask.

MRS. FOSTERS children were
U4 dissatisfied and restless. They
were too young for parties and
too old for playthings. And al.
though they should have been
content with their home duties,
their reading and the simple
amusements their parents could
afford for them, they were not
and that was all there was to 1t.
The danger for youngsters in
their early teens lay just ahead.
Parties and dancing and auto.
mobile rides are very enticing
then. Mrs. Foster realized that
something must be done to off
set their allure. Some amusa-
ment that was more wholesome
and more enjoyable than these
would solve the problem. Then
one day she had an inspiration.
Lets invite a few of your
most talented friends to come
around one evening this week
and start a little dramatic club,
she suggested to Edgar and
Frances.
Frances was delighted and
even the boys eyes sparkled and
his face beamed with interest.
Some people think boys would
scorn to take part In plays but
that Is where they are mistaken.

IF your aspiring soul longs for
i whipped cream 20 adorn some
dessert for which either the shop
ping list or the budget maker
failed to provide real cream to
whip, it is possible to have a
whipped fantasy atop the last
course, provided you are one Of
those long sighted women who be-
lieve in keeping q cow on the
pantry shelf.
From either condensed or evap-
GRATED milk you may evoke your
whipped cream. Some brands OF
evaported milk will whip to a
stiff cream without any special
treatment. Others may need to
be handled in the following way:
Heat the milk in a. double boiler
until it is scalded, then chill it
rapidly on ice and whip.
A teaspoonful of lemon Juice to
each two tablespoons Of the un-
beaten milk will in some cases
help the evaporated milk to beat
TO a stiff condition.
To whip sweetened condensed
milk heat 1t in the top of the
double boiler for 10 minutes, then
chill. For every quarter cup Of
the unbeaten milk add az tea
spoonfuls of lemon juice, drop by
drop, while the milk is being
beaten.

good mouth wash. removes

cay and keeps the breath sweet,

There's one enemy OF teeth
which only dentist can safely
remove This is the tartar that
often accumulates at the margin
Of the gums. Unless it Is re-
moved 1t presses on the gums
after time causing them to re-
cede and the teeth to loosen.
SO you see. regular trips to
your dentist to have your teeth
cleaned from tartar win help to
keep them strong and beautiful
Tor many years to come.
Unless the mouth is kept
clean, the process of chewing
food carries all impurities into
the stomach and causes indiges
ton For this reason, scrupulous
care Of the teeth contributes in
directly to pure blood and good
digestion. which in turn result in
clear complexion.
The food you eat affects your
teeth either directly or by help
ing or hindering their develop
ment. Many persons have poor
teeth and misshaped jaws as a
direct result OF starving the teeth
and bones by wrong kinds of food.
You need plenty OF mineral
salts and vitamins in your food to
keep your jaws and teeth at their
, hest. Oatmeal and whole wheat
Preparations are excellent for the
bones and teeth because they con-
tain phosphorus. while green
vegetables are equally beneficial
because of the lime they contain.
Mildly acid fruit, such as oranges,
grapefruit, apples and peaches
keep the saliva alkaline. and in
this way prevent tooth decay.
Saliva cleanses the teeth mecllan-
icaIly. Tasty food. like shell.
fish and nuts. helps the teeth by
stimulating the flow OF saliva.
About the worst food for the
teeth and Jaws Is white bread
and salads build up the teeth and
buildings made tof white flour.
Whole wheat foods. fruit. milk.
and salads build up the teth and
save and keep them sound and
perfect.
Brush your teeth at least twice
daily, or arising in the morning
and before retiring. Use good
tooth paste or powder and warm
water, which Is more soluble than
cold water.
After cleansing your teeth.
cleanse and Rargle your mouth
with a mouth wash. Milk OF
nagnesia is excellent for this pur
pose So is a teaspoonful OF
bicarbonate Of soda in a glass of
warm or cold water. Either of
these mouth washes will coun-
teract any hyperacidity and
sweeten your breath.
Drink three glasses Of water
every morning after gargiing
your mouth and throat.
White. well-formed teeth are a
Tremendous asset to beauty and
they are the possession of every
woman in normal health who

IN some cases the mother may

milk that q baby requires. But

special vitaniins and other ele-
nerlts that give breast milk q

The so-caIled s'colic' observed
after nursing Is due either to-
hunger or to faulty feeding pro-
ducing gas on the bowels
In those cases in which the
breast milk is insufficient by
feeding up the mother and IN
creasing her fluid intake. the cor.
rect way Is to give the child all
the breast milk that the mother
can produce and then to give the
necessarily artificial food.
Al standard rule Is to place the
baby to the breast for IS or 20
minutes and then finish with the
bottle.
The feeding should always start
with the breast, as the best
stimulus to milk production IL
the sucking Of hungry baby
If the child il first ted from
the bottle, Immediately or shortly
before, and Is not hungry enough
TO suck vigorously the breast

Regularity OF nursing Is equally
Important Provided the feeding
times are regularly spaced =
four-hour interval II not too long
for a healthy child
The breasts should be used
alternately. About two-thirds OF
the contents or the breast are
withdrawn during the first five
!. minutes and there Is nothing to
be gained BY continuing the feed
beyond 20 minutes at the out
side.
Some babies are lazy and VIII
not nurse, Others win stop their
efforts IL the milk comes too
slowly.
Two conditions which often
prevent babies from nursing
properly are air In the stomach
and a full return. A considerable
amount OF air in the stomach
is natural. The baby may start
to suck and in few minutes
stop because the air plus the
small quantity of milk fills the
stomach: in d short time It wakes
up crying and kicking. The
remedy is to expel the air be-
fore or early in the feed by
holding the baby over the shout
der.

plimentary feeding is the best
