Try Making
Home Scene
of Vacation
BY OLIVE ROBERTS BARTON

BY OLIVE ROBERTS BARTON
It takes a woman's ingenuity to
turn the everyday, workaday house
into vacation home. BY vacation
home mean a place which looks
bit different. AS there are many
people who cannot get away for a
breathing spell during hot weather,
why not make the house look like
some place else, so that coming
back to it in September will be a
complete change?
/ have in mind three women who
worked out their problems with the
expenditure of very little money.
Home Made Pool
One of these women, with a fam
lily, got some stones from the foun-
,dation of a burned-down laundry,
and with the help Of her two boys
and a day laborer, soon had a fair
sized stone-lined swimming pool in
the corner of the yard, with a pipe
line from the house. Besides that
she had a rude pine table built
around the single sycamore tree in
the yard, set up an oil stove near by,
cleverly hidden by the bushes, and
thereafter nearly all the meals were
cooked and eaten outdoors. A
green-painted lattice hid this mini
allure summer resort from the street.
Camoufage
Another woman, in an apartment,
took up all her heavy rugs, put down
a few small Chinese grass rugs that
cost from so cents to 81 apiece,
covered the lights with Japanese
lanterns, filled every available win
dow with flower boxes, and turned
her tiny sun porch into dining room
by painting a plain pine table and
some chairs a cool green.
Still third woman, with little
more latitude, changed her house
when hot days came, by moving all
her heavy-looking furniture to an
ample attic. Through the year she
watched opportunities at second
hand stores and bought up chairs,
tables and beds for almost nothing.
She chose pastel color for. each
room, a la summer cottage effect,
and welded clever paint brush in
her spare minutes. She never had
to coax her friends to pay her a
visit during the summer months.

The ShinoLe Cu7e

The Roberta Semples are getting
on my nerves. There seems to be an
epidemic of these young lecturers
still damp from the egg who, having
been supported by parents in good
homes all their lives, never have re-
ally met life at all, but are about
telling the rest of us how to be good.
I ache to have them over my knee,
myself supplied with some good
firm shingles! They get up in pull
pit, boast that they never have
chewed gum or. attended a movie or
a dance, and proceed to regulate the
lives of us who think we do know
a little about living instead of boast
ing the contrary.

Husbands
NotLost by
ShinyNoSes
BY MRS. WALTER FERGUSON

BY MRS. WALTER FERGUSON
Reading some sweet little advice
to a bride we find that 1t is the
height of indiscretion to allow ones
husband to see one putting on cold
cream or manicuring the nails.
These sensitive husbands How
weary one gets of hearing about
their shrinking from all the little
harshnessSS of life; Their souls are
so filled with high ideals and their
culture is so exquisite that they
simply can not stand the sight OF
curl paper on a beloved head.
You know, it has always seemed to
me that the husband who couldn't
endure the sight of his wife with
her hair struggling while she was
doing the breakfast dishes was
mighty poor fish. What would
woman want with a man so weak
kneed that If she we're sick and had
not the strength to powder her nose
his love would fly into foreign
fields?
Husbands are not like that And
If they are, you might as we'll hand
them on to somebody else. All SEN
sible women have enough pride to
wish to appear at their best before
the men they love. 1t needs no
written column to convince the bride
that her best bet is to keep her
adoring husband thinking she is the
loveliest thing he has ever seen.
But the stuff that we get in the
public prints is so overdrawn that it
is wonder any girl ever has the
courage to get married. She is led
to believe that if her husband finds
her without a marcel, or with her
housedreSS bit soiled, or her nose
shiny, he will become disillusioned
Immediately and her ardent love for
her will vanish at once. She is told
that husbands must be handled with
as much care as fragile china or
their affections will crack.
This to potential mothers, who
must depend on these husbands for
the love that will carry them
through days and weeks and months
of illness and ugliness and depres-
sion!
Sometime I believe that by these
insinuations the average husband is
the most maligned person in the
universe. For the real husband, the
man who actually loves you, will
love you when you are homely as
well as when you are beautiful. He
will love you in sickness as well as
in health. And If his affections are
ever worth having at all, they can't
be dissipated by any amount Of curl
papers.

FEWER WOMEN CHOOSE
LAW AS PROFESSION

BU UntfeG PrcSS
LONDON, July 25.-The desire
on the part of English women to
follow the profession of law is on
the decrease as compared with the
number who became barristers five
years ago when admission was first
possible for feminine legalists.
The Trinity Term Bar examina-
ton report shows that this decline
in interest is due to the fact that
many of the women lawyers have
not been able to make remunerative
living from the profession. Only a
few women have taken high rank
with men as advocates before jury.
Three and four years ago there
were often as many as fifteen wom-
en- admitted on call nights" while
now there are generally not more
than two or three.

yourself, and perhaps you may learn
to care for him later.
OF course, your mother is think
ing of your worldly comfort in Sc
lecting man for you who has
plenty of money. but young folks
can see nothing necessary but love.
This is only natural and without it
there would be little happiness.

DOG DAYS DOS
AND DONT'S

Common sense should be a suffi-
cient guide to avoid trouble in the
dog days, says Ruth E. Wadsworth,
M. D., celebrated woman physician.
She dispels old hot weather illusions
and gives the latest advice for the
care of the young-which is also
good for those not so young, in hot
weather.
A great many people still think:
That little babies should be COM
pletely and continuously covered.
That moisture is very dangerous.
That bathing more than twenty
minutes at a time is hazardous.
That drinking much water or
other fluid is harmful.
That sudden changes in weight of
wearing apparel are risky.
Certain modern ideas are RESPONSE
BILE for other prejudices:
The idea that exercise is benefi-
cial no matter what the climate or
the weather conditions.
1t is probable that the rules which
follow for the care of children in
the dog days will be considered I'LL
traconservative in a few years, but
at present we can say that they do
not infringe on any known medical
laws, and they have been tried out
and found to give better results
than the ways of our parents.
Hot-weather clothing for the lit
tie baby: A diaper and a sleeveless
shirt to fasten it to are all the little
baby needs in the day time.
"At night, if the sleeping room is
very warm, the baby should be put
to sleep out of doors and moved
in as the house cools.
1.-THE Misunderstanding baby must
not be disciplined in hot weather,
at least to the extent of combining
sleeves or other contrivances. Many
a baby starts sucking a thumb as
a consolation for being too warm.
For older children: A one-piece
romper or pair of overalls.
REST and sleep: In very hot
weather rigid sleep schedules can
not be adhered to. A good plan
is to omit the nap and substitute
a quiet play hour, indoors, and If
practical on a large, stripped bed.
"Play habits: In the dog days all
strenuous games should be abso-
lutely taboo.
Swimming or bathing in the sea
or lakes is the ideal hot-weather
exercise. - Where the temperature
of the water is only slightly lower
than the air children may stay in
the water off and on for most of
the day without harmful effects.
In fresh water they should not stay
more than twenty minutes at a
time, returning to it after fifteen
minutes rest on shore. In salt wa
ter half-hour periods are not too
long if the water is not cold nor
the surf rough.
I'm general, the hot weather diet
does not differ greatly from a SEN
sible diet for any season. The child's
ordinary diet need not be. changed
for the hot weather if it consists Of
Breakfast: Fruit, cereal and milk.
Lunch: Meat, potato, vegetable and
stewed fruit. Supper: Bread and
milk, or cereal and milk, with jam
or fruit.
And for the older child (of 8
years and over egg, potato and
salad with bread and butter and
milk

SUMMER
BEAUTY
BY NINE. ANNE GERARDE

BIZ NEA SerUice
The first sign of age in many
women are seyelids that wrinkle and
grow yellow or dark.
To freShen aging eyelids, massage
gently with outward motion, using
muscle oil. Daily treatment is neces-
sary. After the massage, apply first
cold and then hot congresses, as
extreme in their temperature as pos
sible, but, of course, do not burn the
lids. ALTERNATE several times.
Now take a bit of mentholated
ointment on the finger tips and rub
into the lids gently, keeping eyes
shut tight so as not to get it into
the eye.
To the greatest benefit from this
treatment, you should lie down in
a darkened room an hour if possible,
with the ointment on your lids. If
not possible to give this care in day.

at night.

CLEVELAND, Ohio, July 25.-Of

girl Of today, in spite Of her dispo-

healthier and physically fit than the

Once it was not dignifed for a
young woman to indulge in violent
exercise. In fact, it was thought re-

1t is possible to restore the natural

take the matter so seriously, as

full girls are those whose youthful
faces are framed in soft gray hair.
