Straight Talks to Women About Money


and living unenjoyable. Your comfort
is worth a fair price which you should
be willing to pay.
Not few women are poor in .ieir
kitchen All of their lives they eat
odds and ends of the shops, inferior
cuts, and second choices. At the end
of their lives they have q few more
dollars, but they haven't the health to
enjoy them. No woman can afford to
save money at the expense of her
health, because the latter is too
priceless.
Poverty of social acquaintance is acute
in some instances. They exist where
women cannot afford to belong to
clubs All clubs do not require appre-
ciable expenditures Many of them
demand little more than ones time. AT
the end of a lifetime, friendships may
be worth more materially and personally
than means.
The self-sacrificial woman is not the
only type. There is also the type who
impoverishes her husband so that she
may preen Her own fortunes are bound
up with his, and In the end she makes
both poor. These forms Of poverty are
as common as the material impecunious
state commonly called poverty" To
be poor in nothing. have little of
everything, but make that little be
enough.

More Ways Than One to Be Poor.

There are more ways than one to be
poor. When speaking of poverty We
usually think of the material sort. That
Is, want and privation. There are other
forms which we feel as kaenly.
One can be poor In clothes. That is.
one can be saving to misery extreme.
Thrift does not mean niggardliness. It
means living well and comfortably
according to ones means and lights.
The woman who dresses frowsily and
dowdily all of her life is poor in a
respect vital TO every woman.
Spend enough on clothes TO make a
pTesentable appearance spend
enough to feel well dressed. If an extra
hat, or pair Of shoes, or dress, VIII make
you happy do not stint on life In order
TO save more for posterity.
We all are interested IN providing for
the future. but the future Is not Just
around the corner. We live In the pres
ent, and If we are reasonably economical
and saving, no fears need be felt about
the future.
Some women are poor In their homes
They Hye ID and with furniture that
should have been discarded long ago.
Furniture that is uncomfortable. un-
slightly, or obsolete. makes life poorer

cause am underweight? L. F.

Encouraging a Natural Wave.
Dear Miss Leeds: I am II years old
and have dark brown hair that waves
slightly. what can do to make 1t
wave more? What can do for dry
sores? am S feet inches tall. Am
too tall to wear high heels?
Answer-Tt takes patience to culti-
vate natural wave In the hair. but
1t is worth all the trouble 1t takes.
Coax your hair into waves with your
fingers first steaming 1t by wrapping
a hot towel around your head. After
your shampoo, while your hair is still
damp, adjust water waving combs and
leave them in until your hair Is dry
Gradually the wave will become deeper

gest your consulting a physician. Yes,

Reply.
Here Is a situation that any one who
deals with childrens minds meets so
often that 1t is strange that 1t hasn't
been discussed more. To begin with,
agree wholly with c. p. AS position.
Any scale that we use for grading men
tai ability can only test or measure
just the type of ability that goes into
that particular test, School marks are
more or less arbitrary. If word is
wrongly spelled, it counts so much of;
if the answer to the problem in arith-
metic is wrong, again SO much OH.
All this takes little account of the
kind of error and the quality of the
performance.
And IL you lean too much to the
teachers Judgment you get another
kind of uncertainty. Intelligence tests
were welcomed because they promised
something objective. The test could
be made anywhere by any competent
tester and the scores compared. The
tests have been widely used. with a
great advantage claimed, and they have
been just as severely criticized.
To get down to the points at issue
There never has been truer saying
than that you can lead a horse to
the water, but you cannot make him
drink. Children are far more complex
than horses. and so it is still truer
that you can lead a child to the test,
but you cannot make him think And
