reason for this is not only because 1t

| the stopper fits so tightly that the
aroma does not escape and the per.

put up such fine essences and extracts

possible, it surely is thoughtlessnesS
on the part of the women who have
such perfumes when they allow the
shoppers to remain out of the bottles
any longer than necessary when using
them.
Volatile Perfumes.
All perfumes are very volatile and
evaporate rapidly when exposed to the
air. Sometimes two shoppers are put
in bottle containing rare and costly
essences of flowers. Altar of roses is
always so protected, for when pure, it
is the concentrated and distilled fra
GRANGE of millions of rose petals. A
wee bottle of this choice perfume re.
quires literally myriads of fragrant
flowers. No wonder it is costly and
carefully safeguarded when made.
There are many essences that are red
oIent with vast numbers of flowers of
delicate fragrance. To leave shoppers
out of such perfume containers is to
show lack of appreciation OF their
value.
A top left off a tube of paste does
not make the paste less, but 1t does
decrease the usefulness of tritiing

dries and is worthless. So think TO

put the dance frock on a chair where
the sun may strike it early in the
morning before you waken, and do
not hang it in it's proper place in a
dark closet, do not be surprised If it
gets faded. For many of the most
exquisite evening shades are not ex-
pected to stand strong sunlight. A
little thought would help keep the
frock at its best for the longest r;me
possible.
The same element of thoughtful
ness is required to prevent expensive
SOAPS from literally wasting away"
To make them do their full service
they should not be plunged into water,
and certainly never left in it for
moment. The correct and saving way
to use toilet soap is to wet the hands
thoroughly and then rub the soap oe'
tween the palms and replace the soap
in it's dish. Or, if it is to be used for
the bath, and not just for washing the
hands, have the facecloth wet and
rub the soap on it. Do not dip the
soap in the water and then rub it ON
the cloth. Plenty of soap will remain
on moistened hands or a wet wash
cloth if used as described, and the
soap will last the longest time posi-

Your Baby and Mine
~ MYRTLE MEYER ELDRED

Breakfasts have played no impor-
tant roles during the Summer months.
When the child failed to eat good
breakfast he could always run in at
10 o'clock and devour an orange or a
leftover piece of toast and could thus
hold OUT until noon. Now break
fasts are vastly important, for with
out a good, substantial meal under his
belt the child is going to have to wait
until noon.
The long hours of sleep provide fast
enough for the gorwing child. In the
morning he needs food. To children
who have been allowed to go without
breakfast for a long time the thought
of eating is almost nauseating. But
they must be retaught to enjoy break
fast.
A glass of strained orange juice
upon arising is appetiZing and APP
petite-making BY the time the child
is dressed for school he will be ready
to eat a slice or two of crisp bacon. a
piece of well-buttered whole wheat or
graham toast, dish of hot, home
cooked cereal with sugar and top
milk, and a glass of milk or a cup of
weak cocoa. This may sound like a
lot. but the portion of cereal need be
only two or three tablespoonfuls, and
this amount will be eaten with relish,
when a larger portion would go un-
touched. Almost every child likes
cocoa and nice, Drowned toast Oat-
meal, cracked wheat, whole barley.
Drowned rice-these furnish ample
nourishment, and, if cooked for long
time in a double boiler or overnight in
a fireless' cooker, are bound to taste
delicious.
The chief trouble with this break
fast eating is that the child hasn't
time to enjoy it. Morning is always a
rush period. Breakfasts are too often
thrown at children and eaten on the
run. They fear that they won't reach
school in time. Their appetites, small
at best, desert them. They find them
selves unable to enjoy food, just as a
nervous adult about to embark on a
tourney is unable to swallow or taste.
Put the children to bed earlier and
get them up earlier. F&eEen minutes
may be just the difference between an
unhurried and a frenzied breakfast
hour. Keep in mind how important is
this particular meal. No child can do
good school work on an empty
stomach.
Eating breakfast is just a habit

the child to say: Il can't eat break

Why Stutter

We shall never control suffering or
help sufferers to cure themselves
until we know more about why peo-
pie stutter. Book after book has been
written, and system after system tried,
and still the world is full of Sufferers.
Why? Because in the field of mind
or nerves or personality nothing is
simple. There are no shortcuts.

age the mouth-tricks of pronuncia-
ton.
1t isn't the mechanics of speech
that bother the typical sufferer; 1t
is speaking as social job. The mus
cles used in speaking are still carrier
| used as expressions of emotlon--ln
gurgles, cries, shouts, laughter, sighs,
growls or howls of anger, Shrieks OF
| fear, gasps of pain, groans OF misery.
| But speaking develops as the great
| highway of communication and social
response. Nervousness in social ex.
preston is thus drawn into the custo'
mary speech outlet. Suffering is a
speech symptom of nervousness. 1t is
so because speaking may be a trying
| social-emotional bit OF behavior. 1t

! Radio is being employed as me-

and confidence in the prize ring.
otherwise the broadcasting of the
story of fights like the two Dempsey
Tunney encounters is liability from
the promoters point of view, because
ii cuts into the gate receipts.
Thus TEX" Richard who once was
quoted as saying he thought radio
fans should be charged a fee for lis
tening to the accounts of champion
ship prize fights, explains why he con-
tractcd for the broadCasting of the
recent DempseyTunney fight at Chi
caco. There is no likelihood whatever
under the radio law that any listening
fees Will be collected from the Amerl-
can public as in other countries. ana
Mr. Rckard admits that the broadcast
ing of championship bouts will prob
ably not be discontinued because of
the overwhelming demand from the
widely spread populace.
1GO,0C9,OOO Listened In.
II is variously estimated that from
$4,000. 900 to 0.000,00 people in the
United States, Canada and far cor
ners of the world heard the National
BroadCasting Co.'S large hook-up from
Soldier Field, which included stations
throughout the land operating on al
most every wave length in the broad
cast spectrum. But only around
10000 persons saw the fight in the
giant Chicago stadium, paying s., $685.

Rickard att&lbutes this to the fact that
many fans preferred to stay at home
and listen in rather than purchase the
cheaper seats located far from the
rinGSide. He points out that all of the
$40 seats were sold, but there were
at least $4,000 seats left in the IS and
SO class.
However, Mr.. Rickard realized re-
turn from the broadcasterS, the n. E.

ing sold the sponsorship to a neWspa-
