Washington History
BY DONALD A. CRAIG.

November 2. 182l.-The City Coun-
Gil today adopted resolution me-
morializing Congress to authorize the
Washington Canal Co. to move to the
center of the Mall, the section of the
city canal bordering on Pennsylvania
avenue from Third to Sixth street
northwest, and to vest the lots front
ing on the Avenue in the city corpora
ton, with a view of rembursing the
company, the balance to be used as
Congress might direct when the lots
are sold.
Two reasons were advanced in sup
port of this request: 1t was urged that
the health of the inha bitants of the
city would he improved if the marsh
bordering the canal was drained. and
that neither the city nor the canal
company was able to do the work
without the aid of Congress or. the
use of money TO be obtained from the
sale of lots along Pennsylvania ave-
nue.. 1t has been declared in Congress
that Pennsylvania avenue is nearly
impossible for horse or foot" espe-
cially in the vicinity of the Capitol
improvement and maintenance of
streets at this time Is the duty Of the
city government, but movement has
already begun in Congress for an ap-
preparation to keep Pennsylvania ave-
nue. in condition for the use of Sena-
tors. Representatives and Justices of

Beauty of the Ewes,

There are many elements that may
mar eye beauty. Even If ones eyes
are large. well placed and OF a lovely
color, they may fall short of real beau
ty on account of one or more of the
four causes which l shall describe.
A perfectly formed and colored eye
is no more alluring than the eye of
wax mannikin unless there are anima-
tion ard eXpressiveneSS behind it. The
expression in a woman's eyes reveals
not only her passing mood, but much
of her character as well. There is no
mistaking the sweetness and sympa-
thy that shines out of some eyes. nor
the selfish, discontented look in others.
Ill health, depression, self-conscious-
ness show in duh, lusterless eyes. The
way to have bright, attractive eyes is
to cultivate radiant health and a
cheerful disposition. No salve or To-
ton can impart these charming quail
ties to milady's orbs of vision.
Eyestrain eclipses the beauty OF
some eyes by causing tiny wrinkles
and bloodshot whites. Lids become
discolored and crepelike, giving the
eyes an old look. Girls who begin
having eye wrinkles in their teens OF
eos are usually suffering from unsus
pected eyestrain. They often put off
seeing an ocuist for fear that he
may prescribe glasses. This is, in
deed. shortsighted policy. because
uncorrected eyestrain not only results
in premature wrinkles on the face
but may become a contributing cause
of nervousness. undcrweight and vari
Gus functional disorders
Dark circles beneath the eyes are a
serious beauty blemish. Those who
have them know that they become
more noticeable when one feels tired
These discolered spots usually indicate
some internal weakness that requires
medical attention. Some types of olive
brunette, however, have dark circles
even when they are in good health
When the skin under the eyes is pI1ffy

Your Baby and Mine
BY MYRTLE MEYER ELDRED.

Mrs. L. X. writes: 'I am one of
help me. l have a boy who will be
years old next month. He simply
will not answer a stranger, nor will
he talk when away from home, or at
homes of close relatives. He will
never do a thing we tell him. have
spanked and scolded him, promised
him almost anything but it does not
change him. He talks enough when
at home and minds me. He has been
going to kindergarten since last Fall
and the teacher says she doesn't think
he has spoken one word to her in all
that time. She thinks she has accom-.
plished one thing. He will put his
chair in the ring and carry it away
again. If she says "you must" he
whether he doesn't want to or Is
afraid. When 1 spank him he turns
white. I have another boy who is
exactly the opposite
Answer.-This is an interesting
problem and of course I can't help
thinking you have done the very
things which make solution more
difficult. You have punished the child
for not speaking so that in his con-
fusion he hardly knows what YOU
want. and so he cries and turns white.
probably not knowing what to expect
or what to do that will please you.
The first thing which you must fix
firmly in his mind is that he is not a
problem. Do not ask him to do things
in front of people. l am. sure in the
past you have done this just to prove
that he is unma nageable. Naturally
he lives up to your expectations. Now
stop having any expectations about
what he will or won't do. and stop
forcing him into positions where he
has to be punished. The fact that he
refuses to answer you or talk to
strangers is not a matter which
demands punishment. 1t remains for
YOU so to erase any unplea sa ntness
from the child's mind that he will
cease to have fear or discomfort when
he is near strangers and will in
evitably come to talk to them. Fore.
ing him to do this only accentuates
his fear and punishment has no effect
whatsoever.
Love your child. Make him feel that
YOU have no grievance against him.
Let him talk or he silent as he
chooses. Don't speak about the fact
that he Is timid near strang Don't
spank or scold him. Forget it and
let him forget it and he'll respond tC
this treatment by beginning to act
natural. BY letting him alone the
teacher has accomplished more than
you have by all your spankings. Take
that lesson to heart.

Well Fitted Frocks Returning
BY MARY MARSHALL.
ke frocks with.

much less willing to take frocks with.
out alterations.
The new wellfitted frocks are spoken
of in France as robes en- forme''-
and dressmakers are again revealing
the fact that women really do possess
waistlines and some rounding of the
figure.
There does not, however, among the
really smart women, seem to be any
tendency to emphasize the actual
waistline, and the girls who draw in
the belts of their little one-piece frOcks
or jumper suits are following no fash
ion but their own.
This new silhouette zen forme"
must be taken into consideration in re-
modelling last seasons frocks. Under
arm seams must be taken in a little
and shoulder seams may have to be
raised to adjust the right fullness to
the slightly closer outlines.
Most women really like this new
outline because if they are not stout
it does make them look decidedly sen-
derer.
Suppose YOU have an old beaded
frock to remodel. In the first place,
get a bunch of beads as nearly to
match those on the frock AS possible.
Then get some georeette or other ma
terial like that of the frock. You will
proba bly, find an underarm seam. Open
this and then adjust the gown so that
there is no bagginess under the arm
and a slight shaping of the waist line.
Leave the gown open below the hip
line and here insert a godet of the
georgette. Now with your beads re-
place any that have come off and
carry out the pattern where necessary
to cover up the work of remodeling.
The gayest, smarteSt little apron /
ever saw is one that a friend just
brought me from Paris. 1t occurred
to me that you might like to make
some like it. so the little circular for
this week shows sketch of this apron
with dial agram-pattern and directions
for making. Just send me stamped,
self-addressed envelope.
