As a child you probably cid not APP
preciate this colorful beauty, which set
you apart from your more drab sisters,
and you probably shrank from their
teasing remarks as to your red head,
but that has all been more than bal

Gifted with this brilliancy OF color

beauty. The skins coloring varies with
the particular red shade of the hair.
From palest red gold to deepest auburn,

But the Titian-haired woman must
be especially careful in shampooing and

Certain chemicals and even strongly al

The question Of selfishness and quar-.
rellng becomes confusingly entansled in
most families 1t is no uncommon sight
TO see a child OF 3 or 4 battering at a
smaller child who Is holding on to one
of his cherished toys with grip OF
steel. When the screaming and yelling
get too irritating to the mothers nerves
she separates the contestants and tells
the older child he is horrid and selfish
to refuse sister his toy. She cuddles the
younger child and all too often laughs
at her for having held her own 90
stubbornly.
There is a depIorable lack of fairness
exhibited in NEST households when deal
ing with such situations. The older
child always gets the little end. He Is
supposed, because of his added years, to
have a full grown sense Of unselfshness
which makes it possible for him to de-
light in giving up his best beloved toys
without a whimper. Unselfishness
DOESN'T come full grown. It develops
because OF satisfying emotion Of pleas
ure inspired when he shares his toys.
Before he finds II satisfactory to share
them he must have enjoyed a full sense
of possession.
There should be in any household no
necessity for holding on" to ones toys
by main force; no need for surreptitious
blows to establish ownership. When a
toy is given To child it belongs to that
child and he must not be made to fight
for it with stronger armed brothers or
sisters, nor be made 10 share It in order
to prove that he is unselIsh "a proof

TAsHTON likes paradoxes, and this
- season she presents one in Of
Il an expression of the return of
more feminine fashions. Absurd
rs 1t may seem some women never look
more feminine than when wearing tail
leurs, and the more perfectly their tall
oring has been done-the more precise
the notehing of the collar and the
better the fit--the more feminine the
general effect.
Much has been said about a possible
revival Of the fashions of 1880. Ger
family clothes were never more feminine
than they were in that late Victorian
period, and yet those were the days
when the tailor-made girl became
famous.
There are suits Of an almost end
less variety for Spring, some that are
most conventionaliy tailored from man
nish suitings and others that are not
tailored at all made from silks and soft
Light wooden materials that no man
ever dreamed of wearing. In the ward.
robe of most women there is room for
suits or ensembles of various sorts. The
difficulty is in telling just when an en-
senble ceases to be suit and becomes
coat ensemble.
Just at present most interest is felt
for the smartly tailored two-piece suit
made with short jacket and usually
accompanied by tuck-in blouse. These
suits are made always very snug at
the hips-sometimes straight to the
shoulders above the lips and sometimes
decidedly form fitting. Beschan Of
Paris is showing this type of suit jacket,
clearly defining the waistline and add
ing a fiaring skirt that further departs
from the tubular silhouette.
The really tailored suit Is made with
trim narrow collar and lapels and Is
usually cut fairly low at the front,
either in double or single breasted
effect with a link closing, two buttons
or four set quite close together. The
smooth snugness is essential and Shout
ders are also fitted with precision,

be folded and kept where they are
ready at q. moments notice.
It Is worth while 70 buy special floor
cloths. One seldom finds just the
right piece Of material among tho
discarded pieces Of cloth. The ideal
floor cloth should be fairly large, as
large as you can handle, and should
be free from raveiing edges and most
absorbent.
A plan that works very well is this
to have one or two good special
floor cloths kept for special cleaning.
Then TO keep on hand a little supply
Of old cloths, cut or torn into pieces

than that. These can be kept In q

you can take one Of these little rags

than using the regular floor cloth
