Hlrh Heels and Other ProbIems.

High Heels and Other Problems.
Dear Miss Leeds: % What effect
have high heels on the health, and
do low heels make the ankles large?
~ What will make eyelashes curl up?
(3J Should rouge be applied before the
powder, or the reverse? (4) Is there
any way to get rid of laughing lines
around the mouth? (5) 1 am feet 5
inches tall and well built except my
legs that are terribly thin. Does dane
ing make one thin or make one grace
full? Am too tall TO wear belt at my
natural waist line. JEAN.
Answer-U) Health experts have two
objections to the constant wearing OF
nieh-heeled shoes. The first Is that
when the heels are raised high on the
ground the weight Of the body is thrown
of its natural base or center Of gravity,
which puts a strain on the nerves and
sometimes causes the internal organs TO
sag out of place. The second count
against high heels is that they deform
the feet at the arch, thicken the ankle
and shorten the big tendon at the heel,
thus causing all sorts OF painful foot
troubles in time. The low heel, not
more than ia inches high. should be
used for school, business or shopping
and the higher heels kept for occasional
wear at dances. etc. 90 There is 40
sure way Of making the lashes turn up
naturally except brushing them upward
every day, although I believe there are
mechanical devices sold for the purpose
Of making an artificial curl in the
lasf1es. 90 Both methods are used. (4

He was further told that his wife's sig

Mrs. Pratt did not relish the idea
to stand good for her husbands debts
out of her own personal property. To
keep peace, however, she granted her
husbands request and signed as surety.
When the note fell due again, 1t was
Mrs. Pratt who had to apply her money
to reduce the indebtedness. When 1t
again fell due and she was called upon
to make a further payment, she re-

Care of Permanent Waves.

Dear Miss Leeds: % I have per-
manent wave and use water waving
combs to make the wave larger. Is
there any way to avoid using the combs
often, so that the waves will last four
or five months? When the scalp per-
spires 1t makes the hair damp. Should
not this dampness keep the hair in
curl? 10 I am So years old and feet
AZ inches tall. What should weigh?
s. WATTS.
Answer-G) Permanent waves must
be formed either with combs or with
the finger. usually once week or often
er The prespiring scalp will make the
hair curly but not wavy. I would adj
wise you TO insert the water waving
combs after each shampoo-that Is,
about twice month--and then on alter
nate weeks steam your hair with hot
towel and use the combs again. Every
morning when you dress your hair
shape 1t into waves with your fingers
and a comb. A permanent wave must
have regular attention to keep 1t looking
nice. ~ The average weight for your

WHY WE Do WHAT WE DO
BY MEHRAN K. THOMPSON. Phi. d.

It transmits from generation TO gen.
Grafton the characteristics that are Pc
culiar to the race and family. If this
were the only law operating a genius
could come only from a genius. It does
not work that way. A genius may
spring up anywhere to be the first and
last Of the line. The explanation is
that the law of variation introduces
changes and modifies the hereditary
pattern. Occasionally this law produces
a freak. Every genius is a freak. He
is radically different from average folk.
Biologists are inclined to accept this
theory because 1t Is generally agreed
that acquired characteristics cannot be
inherited and the law of heredity
would merely reproduce like from like
without any changes such as we see in
the genius.
The genius Is a freak OF nature who
has found opportunity to develop his
extraordinary power, which Is the re-
suit of the law Of variation that oc-
casionally produces something entirely
different.

Some are born great. some achieve
greatness. and others have greatness
thrust upon them" Those who are
born great are clasSed as geniuses. We
now apply the term genius TO person
OF unusual ability. Micheiangelo,
Shakespeare. Napoleon, Edison, Bis

and others who are outstanding in their
respective fields belong to the genius
type.
A distinction should be made between
talent and genius. Talent is that
which is, in mans power: genius Is
that in whose power man is.
Psychological studies have been made
OF geniuses to determine the exact rea-
sons and If possible TO measure It as
we measure intelligence. The results
have been only partly successful.
