Tired of Everybody.

Elsie has come to the end of her
rope She's ready to pass in her checks
and draw a ticket to heaven. She
doesn't want to live any more. She's
tired of everybody. She can't bear the
sight of her family. Her sweetheart
bores her to tears And she knows she
isn't worthy Of their love.
But for days and weeks every one
been getting on her nerves. Night after
night to return TO the same tiresome
family, the same endless chatter, the
same old boy friend waiting for her
after supper--she can't 60 on any more.
She admits she's an unnatural, I'M
grateful girl, but there's nothing to be
done about it. She's just made like
that
Well, cheer up. Elsie, there are a few
thousand other people in the world
made like that. too.
IN fact. every human being in the
universe goes through this phase once
in a while, Know what's the matter
with them and with you? They need a
change.
You need a change You're not really
tired of your family. You're tired of
yourself and your monotonous daily
grind. You don't really detest your
small brother. You don't really think
your mother is a dull. uninteresting
companion. You aren't sincere when
you say that the boy friend is the one
man in the world you could never pos
Sibly love.
No, you've gone along for such long
time in the same old rut that you're
sick of everything. And no matter
what it costs you financially or mem
tally. you've got to take vacation.
Just get up and get out If you
L., EAa Cs,,,a
take it now And take it SO far away
from your people that you won't even
remember you have a family
Why. child, the world is full OF cross
wives, nagging sWeethearts. diScontented
daughters and sons who think they're
sick of life, when they're only sick Of
themselves and what they're making OF
life
Their unhappiness lies in their own
discontented souls. and nothing but rest
and change will let them see the light.
Don't get the idea that you're In
trap-save that of your own making.
Don't imagine that fate has thrust you
into a group Of the dulleSt people IN the
world You're where you belong all
right. You have q devoted family and
a loyal sweetheart. You're all set for
a happy life. IF you'll only give your
self chance to realize 1t.
But while you've got every one around
you the realization will never come TO
you Of what a lucky girl you are.
Get yourself out Of your present en-
vironment. even for week end If that
is the only thing possible. Get right In
with a crowd of new people Go visit
a friend and forget every one you've left
behind you.
And wait till you see how glad you'll
be to get back Wait till you see how
much you'll want the love and sym-
pathy which now seem dull and tire

Acquiring a Coat of Tan.

One of the beauty problems that
milady must meet in vacation time is
the effect Of the sun on her complexion
Unless one constantly stays indoors in
Summer and gives UP outdoor activities,
the skin is bound to feel the results Of
exposure, which may be seen in tan,
freckles and bad sunburn.
Of these three Summer problems, tan
is the least Objectionable to the beauty
seeker. Indeed, 1 have received a num-
Der of letters from readers Of the col
umn who want to develop an even coat
of tan, which is, of course, preferable to
red, blistered and peeling skin.
The fair type Of skin that treckles
badly does not develop smooth tan

Smiles and Dimples.

Looks as though you were enjoying
yourself. In many ways the whole
secret Of popularity lies in that--look
happy even If you're not. For one
thing, so few Of us are really happy
that we follow around In "a pathetic
way after those that are. perhaps hop
ing to find out their secret, perhaps
going on the theory that happiness is
infectious and that we may catch their
mood Or perhaps we feel that as they
attract happy events we may have some
share IN them.
In any case, whether you're happy
or not. practice smiling. for this may
draw people around you It's hard to
be unhappy in a crowd. you know. If
you have dimples you have a great
advantage. for the girl with dimples
looks smiling even when she Is most
sober If you haven't dimples. don't
worry many faces are better looking
without them. The slim girl would
look very odd with a dimplc. and

then you must practice. Smile 10 your
self In a glass, smile In different ways,
until you have found the way which
looks most natural and most becoming
If you've ugly teeth you can learn To
smile without showing them, whereas
If you have pretty ones use them to
their full advantage. Some faces look
best with slight and rather wistful
smile. You can have that, too, with
practice

NEW YORK, October s.--Reaction-

in today's Curb Market. although the
characteristic bidding up of speciality

part of the improvement was main

directions.
Included among the favorites was

ports continued to persist that trading

rated on the stock exchange. Nichols

While these issues still proved sus-

high in sympathy with strength in the

rise of almost a point in Noranda and

Columbia Graphophone opened on a
block of 6,100 shares at 537s, and re-
ceded several points subsequently,

stock was quoted ex the stock dividend
of 100 per cent on the depositary
receipts.
