Doubtless many Of my readers, and
the writer Of this note among them,
know the answer TO this question. The
conservat isn1s Of the child and Of the
aged have a different psychology.
Children are conservative because
their adjustments are easily disturbed.
They want to feel secure If you have
once lad oatmeal. you know 1t Is safe,
you know what 20 expect before you
tas.e it. And If its slightly differently
prepared it becomes stranger and is
rejected Weaving is a difficult stage
in infancy because this conservatism
is physiological
Food habits offer the richest field
for child-en's conservatism, because 50
many Of them eat readily only what
tfey nEe. Appetite Is uncertain and
food rl1irls are common. But the same
holds good Of dress. Clothes and shoes
must be just SO. or they won't do.
We want things different and we
want them the same: We seek variety,
but like what We are used to. There's
10 place like home, but we must get
aw2v from il for change.
~. these responses. these likes and
distiEea. are more delicatcly poised in
the sensitive child. because the ci1ild's
entire emotional equilibrium isn't very
steady it doesn't take much 70 upset IT,
Of all the upSett.ng emotions fear
ts tire most common and the most COM
mon EXETER Of fear Is the strange
TTle child in arms that Is taken Up by
q stranger and begins 10 cry is a con-
se~afiVe. those new arms don't feel
just ike mothers any more than later

&c make.

KEEPING MENTALLY FIT
BY JOSEPH JASTROW.

With each stage IN mental growth
fears extend and dislikeS with them,
for they both represent things to avoid,
II the first contact with cat or dog
doesn't excite fear. but the satisfaction
Of play and the interest Of the novel.
The course Is safe.
Soon these welcome familiarities and
unwelcome strangeneSseS are ration
allied You read story to Swear
old and change few words or omit a
sentence. and you're told by the little
conservative that that's not right SO
the oatmeal isn't right and the shoes
aren't right, and the toy engine isn't
rigs, because 1t departs from the ac-
customed and accepted pattern. Yet
in their activities children equally grow
tired. They weary Of toy because
they have exhausted its possibilities
and want a new one They are reach
ing out As venture attracts, yet wish TO
venture safely Like many of their
elders. they want safe thrills; but the
thrill is in the novel, though the fear
is there also. and the too familiar be-
comes tame.
The child's conservatism is set by its
limited experience. its desire for Sc
curity. and as such is best expressed
in those intimate primary satisfactions
Of which food is easily the first and
comfort (absence Of restraints the

them smooth again? ~ My eyebrows
used to be quite dark but now they
are becoming lighter and are beginning
to lose their natural arch, although I
brush them back in place each time I
wash my face. RUTH Fl.
Answer--tD The lip-biting is largely
responsible for the rough lips. You
must break this bad habit Every night
massage your lips gently with cold
cream. Before applying lipstick put on
a thin film Of the cream. Blend the
color with your finger instead of rub
bing the stick directly on your lip.
Wrinkled lips often denote poor general
health. Be sure that you are not I'M

been brushing the eyebrows correctly.
After you have washed your face at
night dip a small eyebrow brush in
olive oil and brush up the hair from
the lower edge. Now brush the upper
line of hairs downward. so that they
meet the lower hairs in q neat line
