Clara Bow Figures It's Best to
 Keep in Form
ANITA PAGE.

With the warm summer months time to resolve to remove those few extra pounds. Summer is the ideal season in which to battle the problem of overweight. This is true because warm weather does not arouse ones appetite and because the body needs less fuel.
 For one who is only moderately overweight, simple diet will be found effective in removing the extra pounds without inconven- fence. Clara Bow has evolved splendid diet which she follows during the summer months to re- tain her graceful figure.
 "One beginning the summer diet may find it difficult the first few days while breaking the habit of overeating-but don't wealen." Miss Bow cautions.
 Here's a Daily Diet
 ''For breakfast, drink only one large glass of orange juice. Then for luncheon cat crisp salad with out msyennaise. a leafy vegetable, toast and tea or coffee. without cream.
 Four o'clock tea must be dis pensed with and in it's place take a cooling limeade or other fruit drink. Dinner should be as meat less as possible, tabooing pork and beef especially. Lamb chops, fish, vegetables. salads. cheese cold con- sommes and toast are excellent items to include.
 That's all the diet but there's just one word of advice. Don't tell anyone you're dieting! Nothing is more boring than hearing a woman talk of how she denies herself food. Just keep it secret and when you begin to lose, just make 'em all guess how you did it."

fathers give themselves two months vacation in the summer by sending the children to summer camps. This may be excellent for the parents and bad for the children, or vice versa.
 The summer camp may benefit the child's health and morals, but it has the tendency to diminish parents with the child. an intima- cy which is becoming less and less in these modern times. II may be the wrong type of vacation for both parents and children
 That, after all, is a matter which every parent will have to decide for himself
 The primary object of a vaca- ton is rest, and the primary ob- JeCt of rest is relief from strain Some persons suffer far greater strain during q time when they are not occupied than in an inter- estinc employment. Most people feel the strain of the vacation the III oL tN U OI tlltt udNS. Slutb l1t vacation activities bring into play muscles and fragments not usually used, the vacation should there fore be taken up gradually.
 It may be highly desirable to take t nap every day after lunch before cmbarking on the physical activities of the afternoon. Moth ing is so sad as q vacation that goes sour. IL brings the person back to work disgusted, tired and irritatod and dissatisfied. Better TO vacation at all than one with such serious effect on the tem- peramcnt.
 If one worries unduly about the business when away, the vacation viii do harm. Re sure you are satisfied with the business bcfore you start. And when we say busi- ness in the case of mothers, We mean the condition of the children and the home.

 There's splendid patch just over the other side of this fence" !" said Bob White. T can see it from here.'
 Peter didn't know just what to say, He had a feeling that Bob White was trying to lead him astray, He had a feeling that if he hunted long enough around where he was he would find that nest. But there really was nothing to do but go sample that patch of sweet clover, now that Bob had pointed it out to him. So he went over to the patch of sweet clover and he really found it very sweet If there is anything that can overcome Peter's curiosity. it is Peters appetite Presently he had quite forgotten Mrs. Bob White and her secret

With bur lesqued mimicry of a head waiter Lillian had shown us 10 those seats and then, stepping back. had swept us 8 low bow.

But please reuem- Der to make your colloquy snappy. The hostess mustn't leave her party in the lurch too long. you know"

 You did not come here to talk Of women and roses, did you?" asked caustically.
 He looked at me with sudden laughter in his eyes.
 T love your impudence,' he said. Then his conversational weather vane veered suddenly as he saw the annoyance in my eyes which I could not have hidden even if I had wish ed to do so,
 What Did It Nean?"
 -"You are both right and wrong" he said soberly. T did come in here to talk of women-one in particu- lar, the Princess Olina. You heard that stifled 'No,' she uttered when the betrothal of Prince Georges to your husbands niece was an flounced. What did 1t mean?"

Peter Rabbit knew that he had no business trying to find out the secret of Mrs. Bob White. Of course, . he knew that somewhere near Mrs. ; Bob had q nest and that in that , nest were many eggs. The secret was the location of that nest and eggs.
 Tt ought not to be difficult for me to find it." thought Peter. Ali I need do is to watch Mrs. Bob, She will not leave those eggs for very long. She would be afraid they . would get chilled. So if I just watch her l will soon know her secret
 What are you thinking about, Peter?" asked Bob White, who was now sitting on a fence post where he could look all over the Green Meadows. There was q twinkle of mischief in Bob's eyes as he spoke. He knew what Peter was thinking about. That long cared bunch of curiosity is thinking about that nest of ours" said Bob 10 himself, Z q know Peter Yes, sir, I know Pc. ter. He is planning 10 watch Mrs. Bob and so find out our secret. Mrs. Bob knows 1t just as well as l do"
 Peter looked up at Bob, I'm no; thinking about anything very spe- cial," said he. Its a nice day, isn't it?" I've never seen Mrs. Bob lock- ing better than she does now, How many eggs has she laid this year?'
 Really, I don't know" replied Bob. 'I haven't counted them. You see. they are her business and I haven't even asked her how many eggs she has. l can tell you one thing, and that is, if they all hatch. We shall have one of the biggest families We have had in years. I do like big families. Of course, it means more responsibility and mor4 worry, but just the same I do like a big family

Stars Are Seldom Out at Night Says Movie Beaut,

Sleep is natures restorer, and nowhere is it recognized as so iEi- portant to health and beauty as in Hollywood. The movie colony is often called o'clock town.
 "Facials, diets and tissue cream will avail nothing if one hasn't 8 foundation of health and vitality to start on," Anita Page explains. Youth and beauty soon forsake those who burn the midnight oil. That is why we moving picture players have to follow an early re- tiring schedule. Therefore, if you are in earnest in your beauty cam paign, do not neglect your beauty sleep.
 T allow myself one night a week for dancing or parties later than II p. m. While I'm working on picture I always retire immediately after light supper and sleep un- til a. m. Between pictures, II o'clock is my bedtime.
 "A warm bath. l find. is a great sleep inducer. Cold baths are not good because, although they tone up the body. they harden the skin and, to retain the silky smoothness of the skin, it is best not 10 take them"
 The ''cat and dog" method Is much better than the alarm clock for waking, Miss Page advises. As you awake, yawn and stretch slow ly and long until every muscle Of the body is aroused.
 Setting-up exercises she finds beneficial. Touch the hands 0 the floor without bending the knees. Standing with the feet wide apart, pivoting the waist and bending. with the right hand touching the floor as far as possible, pivot 10 the other side and repeat.'

1 His eyebrows Contracted and his mouth closed firmly. Then his lips relaxed into a smile
 T will listen to anything from you" he said with subtle stress upon the pronoun, and I guessed that I had made a good choice of words in referring to the future status of the Transvanian Princess. even though they were wholly menda, cious on my part.
 Then l said hastily, ignoring the emphasis of his words an1 glanCes, that exclamation of Prin- cess Olina's meant to my mind only the plaint of a spoiled child who wants 10 eat her cake and have II too"
 He started violently. Olina's Infatuation
 Just what do YOU mean by that ?' he demanded. Do you think that the Princess IS undecided which man she wishes to marry-my boy or Prince Georges?"
 No, that is not my meaning l said hastily, thinking that for the present I probably was reflectins Princess Olina's emotions truthfully. T think that she is very much in tatuated with Noel" 'You think it only infatuation. them" he interposed quickly.
 Isn't all love in'fatuaton l countersd quickly. and something kindled in his eyes which made me drop my own.
 That's a question which needs unlimited time for discussion" he said with teasing laughter in his voice. But I'll rest content with your assurance that Princess Olina" he rolled her title with relish lis still in love with my cub. Why. then, the protesting 'No' when she heard the announcement of Prince Georges betrothal?"
 ''Becauso," I said patiently. "sh4 has an exaggerated idea Of the 'di- vinity which doth hedge a king, and she was shocked that her old friend, the heir to the throne of Trees, should be contemplating mar riage with a commoner, such as she deems Mary. l have a shrewd idea also, that Prince Georges in days gone by gave her the opportunity to become the future Queen of Trees She did not want the title herself but she is feminine enough to rebel at seeing q girl whom she deems an inferior being proffered it'
