THE CIVIL LEGION

Composed of civilians who render
ed service to the government during
the World War, the new Civil Legion
has been organized with view to CO.
operation with the military forces of
the country in the event of another
national emergency.
Among those eligible are the war
governors of the several states, mem
bers of the war congress, members
of selective service boards, and of ma
tional and state councils of defense,
Y. M. c. A., Red Cross, K. of c.,
Salvation Army, Jewish Welfare
Workers and others who ministered
to the needs of soldiers and sailors
during the war. A recent pamphlet
says:
Composed of such material, the
Civil Legion constitutes practical
defense league against attacks by
enemies bent upon destroying the
American ideal, the equality of rights,
regardless of race or creed. It stands
four-square against bolshevism, paci-
flsm, racial and religious tolerance.
The Civil League IS not rival, put :.
corollary of the American Legion,
that splendid band of fighting men
who wore the uniform during the
World War and are now doing a won
derful work in constructive patriot
ISM"
None can deny that the service
rendered by this Civilian army" in
organizing industry for war, in SELL
ing Liberty Bonds, in providing re-
lief and comforts for the combatant
army, and in many other ways, was
an indispensable part of Americas
mighty war effort. By standing
ready to perform a like service,
should it be our misfortune to REQUIRE
it in future, the Civil League will full
fill high patriotic duty.

be left alone unless they occur on an
undesirable spot on the face. But not
all facial moles are disfguring. On
the contrary, small one high on the
cheek or near the corner of the mouth
may be real beauty asset. Beauty
patches that used TO be so popular
with both sexes in the days of curled
and powdered wigs We're nothing more
or less than artificial moles. A mole
in the right place gives a piquant ex-
preston to a pretty face.
There is a dangerous sort Of mole,
however, and when blemish of this
sort, especially a large, dark, f1eshy
one begins to grow and spread after
having been quiescent for years, it
should be removed at once by a physi-
clan, as cancer sometimes develops
from such beginnings. 1t Is very fool
hardy to try and handle these cases at
home with caustics that only serve to
irritate the condition and predispose 10
blood poisoning and other serious con
sequences.
Large discolored areas Of skin that
are popularity called birthmarks may
be remedied in various ways by the
skilled plastic surgeon. Sometimes
the method used is the same as that
employed In the removal of moles; in
other cases a simple skin-grafting ope
ration gives the best results. The re
moval of old scars that have been left
by deep wounds, boils or large PIN
pies, may be accomplished by similar
methods. There is really"no need to
carry such disfigurements through
life to the detriment of ones happiness
and beauty.

articles can bring when sold at fairs
and bazaars. Articles are not pur
chased just because they have elabo

time to fashion. They are bought be
cause their usefulness has been added
TO by the artistry of the embroidery
on them. SO when you send things to

we'll to ponder on these hints before
making your contributions.
Embroidery Mediums.
There are some things that can
easily be guarded against. For in
stance, coarse embroidery medium

woven material Even if knots are not
made in the ends of threads (Which
should he avoided punctiliouslyl, the
necessarily large needle makes holes

ticeable blemfshes. Any slight ends OF
threads that show land it Is difficult to
prevent this happening, unless you
are an expert(, is another blemish.
See that the medium is not in accord
with the fabric. There are heavy,
very soft mediums that may be used
on sheer materials. When ii comes to
nets with large meshes they call Tor

Avoid Sleazy Materials.
Never use sleazy materials. The
goods may be inexpensive, but it must
have sufficient body for 1t to merit

conceal nor qualify the fact that mate

broidery you put on it. In fact, the
more work put on poor goods. the
more striking is the Appropriateness.
Keep work simple. There is no
beauty in meaningless intricacies. Suit
the cut of the article to its purpose

simplicity. A comment on ones work

CHAPTER XIV.
The Start.

Friday was an ideal day-warm and
yet with a hint of sharpness in the
breeze At the last minute Jes-
sica had decided that it would be
so they had to take a picnic lunch.
And so they had a basket filled with
sandwiches and deviled eggs and
chicken and olives and pickles. There
was a bottle full of hot coffee. and a
little tin ice chest with melon in it.
Mark had been afraid that in some
way Maude would betray the fact that
she was not saying good-by to Jessica
for more than few hours. But Maude
was perfect.
She kissed Jessica lightly and with
more approval on her face than it had
wore in months.
Jessica laughed as she hoped into
the machine.
poor Aunt Mauder I suppose l
do lead her terrible life. If only
older people wouldn't expect us to
pattern our lives by theirs. But Aunt
Maude is a dear. I'm terribly fond of
her"
Mark wisely said nothing. and they
started off into the sunshine. AT 1890
o'clock they drove into a bosky little
dell to have their lunch. Jessica in
sisted on making a regular picnic of
it and getting out of the machine.
She spread a white tablecloth on the
ground under huge tree and set out
| the different things upon it. They both
ate as if they hadn't Il meal in days.

Your Baby and Mine
BY MYRTLE MEYER ELDRED.

Mrs. f. f. writes: MY baby is III
months old and has two upper and
two lower teeth. She is continually
cross all day long. She wakens three
and four times at night and has to be
nursed before she will go to sleep.
Sometimes ] have to take her out of
her crib to quiet her crying. Is this
caused by cutting teeth and is her
pain continuous and how can L stop
her from waking up so many times In
the night?"
Most mothers tell me they read this
department daily, but sometimes
wonder, For years and years, or so it
seems to me, / have been reiteratlng
the same advice about babies of
months of age. When breast-fed
baby of this age, who has formerly
been sleeping through the night, be-
gins suddenly to wake up four or
five times and cry to be nursed, 1t is
because his diet needs strengthening.
In most cases he needs to be weaned.
In all cases it is his diet and not his
teeth that is causing the trouble.
This has been proven time and time
again. When Il mother begins to
add to the child's diet he begins to
sleep we'll again. And it seems that
this phenomenon always begins at
months of age.
We have leafiet designed for just
this question. 1t Is called the "Wean-
ing and Feeding" Ieaf1et. and can be
had, Mrs. Z. F., for a self-addressed
and stamped envelope and a request
for it. You're welcome.
Mrs. E. J. d. writes: My Smonth
old baby wants to come to the table.
What shall l give him TO eat now?
Answer-The same feeding leafiet
offered to Mrs. r.. +. answers your
question fully. Won't you please
write for this. too. ! should not try
to feed so young a baby at the table.
Babies of this age get into the bad
habit of crying and pleading for
everything they see on the table. If
they are fed separately they will be
quite contented with the food that is
given them, and that is best for them.
Mrs. Mae: All of your questions
are covered by the Feeding and
Weaving" leafiet. / shall be de-
lighted to send it to you for the
above self addressed and stamped
envelope.

cup of coffee on one arm of our over
stuffed chair and an ash tray on the
other. and / lit a cigarette and sat
down with my feet on the radiator and
the Sunday paper in my lap, and that
is as near Heaven as man can get
on this earth; and I was thinking. Il
will certainly broadcast that this is
the life" and then Joan had to strip
the gears on the whole darn universe.
She said, IT have been cooped up
with the baby for weeks and weeks
and weeks, and / certainly would APP
preciate the luxury OF just being alone
for awhile. You can take care of him
for a few hours and let me out to get
breath of fresh air and see the
sights. can't you, dear"
Well, she never takes vote, be-
cause the government at our house
isn't democratic, and she simply got
dressed and gave me tiVe-minute lee
ture on how to feed the baby, which
/ knew already, and went out; and
thought. Did / say this was the life,
for Heavens sake?
Well. | played with the baby for
awhile and then it was time to feed
him again---it is always time to feed
him again-and then he took a nap
and ! started looking through one of
Joan's baby books. There didn't seem
to. be anything better to do.
] thought, | will get the lowdown
on this codliver-oil business, and | read
about A and b and G and what they
do for your bones and how they make
YOU grow and how they keep you
from getting all kinds of diseases, and
/ got to wondering about the baby.
SO took a ruler and tried to measure
him, but that didn't prove anything,
because he was all curled up in bed
asleep and, anyway, / don't know how
long he was when we got him, and
then l looked at his legs.
said, Ricketts,
He is so bowlegged that | am scared
to death
/ lust don't know what to do. | don't
know whether to tell Joan and then
call our doctor, or call the doctor first
and then tell Joan, and why she has
not noticed II herself Is beyond me.
| | wish my mother was here again--or
even Joan's mother. s
The poor little baby can't tell me
| how he feels. If he is feeling as bad
| as ] am, the doctor ought TO be right
here now doing something, but ! am
afraid to call him, and / wish Joan
| would hurry home. but / haven't got
| the nerve to tell her when she does
| come.
We didn't start that codliver oil
soon enough.
