Bowlegs are another defect that
must be corrected before the bones
have hardened. If the treatment is
delayed until maturity. the only cure
is surgical operation. Teeth that
protrude or overlap may be corrected
by braces or other methods that every
dentist can use. 1t IS really unfair to
any child TO allow her to grow up with
ugly teeth. Misunderstanding should,
of course, be discouraged because it
makes the front teeth come forward
out OF their proper alignment.
A beauty problem that often comes
to me is in regard to improving the
shape Of thick, fiabby lips. This fault
is usually due to the habit of mouth
breathing in childhood, which should
have been cured by the removal of
nasal Instructions or adenoids. Now
that the public schools have for some
years been giving physical examina-
tionS to children. there should be
fewer young people growing up with
defects such as / have mentioned.
The habit of biting or licking the lips
is also detrimental to their beauty.

Of beauty, is large. outstanding ears.

toward the open door and sniff. Then
calmly and as IL he were accustomed
to it.. Jimmy walked right into the
shed. In a moment he came backing
out Not until he reached the thresh-
old did he turn around. In his mouth
was a chicken bone.
AT sight Of this Mrs. Jimmy
promptly went into the shed. Of
course, this was enough for the chill
dren. If father and mother were not
afraid, there could be no reason for
them to be afraid So each went in to
get bite. and each backed out in
just the same way as Jimmy and Mrs.
Jimmy had. 1t was very funny to see

Now, all this time Black Pussy had
been in that shed and had seen what
was going on. Black Pussy didn't

food had been put there for her, for
in that shed she was accustomed to
being fed. So she had been helping
herself when Jimmy Skunk. walked
inside. At first glance Black Pussy
thought 1t was another cat. Other
people have made that mistake when
unexpectedly meeting Jimmy or one
of his family. Black Pussy pulled
back her lips and growled deep in her
throat. She lashed her tail. She was
just about to- spring on this stranger,
who was seemingly paying no atten-
ton to her, when for the first time
she noticed the big plumy tail. No
cat ever had a tail like that. The
growl died in Black Pussys throat.
A wild look of fright chased the an
ger out of her eyes. Like flash she
turned and scrambled up to the top of
the woodpile. There she crouched in
the farthest corner and she took pains
to make no sound at all. She was a
scared cat. was Black Pussy.
Black Pussy remained up there on
the woodpile until long after Jimmy
, and his family had retired. When she
did venture down her hair was stand
ing on end and she was all ready to
run at the least little noise. You
should have seen how very, very care
fully she peeked out the door. No
Skunks were in sight. Black Pussy
raced over to the barn. She felt safe
there.

The woman who finds little time to
indulge in fancy work and who seeks
quick results that are pleasing will
Sind cretan stitch an ideal one for
anany purposes. 1t is the familiar
feathers stitch done very close and
adapted to embroidering of motifs in
sstead of the usual banding so COM
monly associated with this stitchery.
1t is made to conform to the precise
shape of a design by increasing and
diminishing the length of stitches.
For example, in a pointed leaf the top
stitches are shortest and gradually
increase in length until the widest
part of the leaf is worked and then
shortened, if the leaf decreases in size
toward the stem.
afc The stitches are made from a center
straight line. and here there is the
characteristic loop of feather stitch.
1t is essential to have this center line
-straight, or the work gets haphaZ'
ard appearance that spoils it's beauty.
But, nevertheless, cretan stitch is
quite as seay, if not, in fact, easier. to
10 well than the more usual feather
stitching.
Cretan and Outline Work.
Cretan stitch is admirably adapted
TO embroidery Of leaves on vine OF
outline stitches. Unless the design Is
hold, outline is decidedly preferable to
chain stitch, however fine it may be
worked, for the making of stems or a
vine design. Those Of you who are
making modern samplers may well
use the vine design as a border. 1t Is
very like the fine needlepoint borders
found on antique, samplers The pat
tern also is effective on table scarfs
and runners either of rich dark mate
rial or of natural or colored linen.
