There was q terrible rapping on

David jumped up ana ran 10 the

And IL you yawn enough, youT

Advice to Girls
By ANNIE LAURIE

NEAR ANNIE LAURIE:
~ am a girl seventeen years
old. and / am not allowed to go
with young men because my
mother thinks that I am too
young. Don't you think that I am
old enough? PEGGY.
Doggy: I agree with your mother.
IL Peggy. dear. that you are too
young TO go out with young
men. However. 1 do not consider 1t
unwise TO- you to occasionally have
little gatherings OF young people at
your home, where you can dance
and enjoy yourselves. | am sure that
your mother would not object 70
that SO why not suggest to her
that she invite a few boys and girls
to your home some evening? In
this way she a meet your friends.
And in a year or two. she will be
glad TO have you accept invitations
from young men.

mer. Because IL she is"
Mary Harrison's face was flushed
and her eyes cleaning with some
thing which had both temper and
nervousness in II. Knowing that II
would be most unwise. as well as a
distinct breach Of faith TO tell her

that Philip VeritZen had made giving
UP Noel the price OF keeping her on
as his dramatic protege. after her
confession that she had deceived him
in her appearance as the masked
dancer. I knew also that my en-
ployer in pursuance Of his insane
plan to marry his Sol to Princess
Dina, was providing frequent oppor-
tunities for the two TO meet. II was

I crossed to the mutinous figure
OF my husbands lovely young niece

An Ill selection OF perfume fire.
quently sets in conflict two distinct
impressions. Take the young girl
who buys n perfume that has been
made to suit the personality Of a
matron. BY using this perfume she
surrounds herself with an impress
sion OF maturity that does not lit
with her youth.
A blonde, by using perfume made
for a brunette brings 10 her languid
temperament and fair ~coloring the
ruddier personality OF the more viva
clous woman. thus setting into mo
ton two dual personalities. You real

The vivid ''red-head" can add a
quiet air to her personality by using

A pure sandalwood or natural jas
mine contains an exotic yet sinu-
ously fragile fragrance which win
interpret the personality OF the sloe-
eyed Oriental type who Is rather
delicate in appearance.
The pale. languid charmer finds
expression in the blending Of the
Southern magnolia with tuberose
and jonouil. Another blend for this

ton OF olibanum. vetiver and lots OF

and the rate Of their learning ability.
Poor heredity and poor schooling are no
doubt important factors in dull children and
many are classed as such or appear merely aver
age because of the pedagogical error of trying to
fit the child to the class instead of studying them
as individuals and fitting the studies to the
capacities and peculiarities Of the child.
The bright children, because of an inherently
high birth endowment, reveal themselves as quick
to learn in spite of the cut-and-dried teaching
methods.
Many average children would undoubtedly
be classed as bright, and many dull ones brought
up at least to the average mark, were the child's
Individual possibilities studied separately and
apart from the usual group performances.
The cause that holds many children back,
makes them retarded. is usually some physical
