Pretty Ankles.

II I said that every girl could have
pretty ankles, most OF those who al
ready possess thick ones would not be-
lieve me. Yet bad ankles are ugly only
because of accumulated fat, and this
can be taken off.
To make ankles slender the first
thing is to decide on your correct
weight If you weigh exactly what you
should, there is no reason why the
ankles should not be slender. If you
weigh little under, so much the bet
ter, for the weight charts are very
generous in the number of pounds they
allow you. Therefore the first way to
treat ankles is to reduce.
Then there are methods of breaking
up the fat around the ankle bones and
letting it distribute itself to other parts
of the body. In the old days Of high
laced shoes this was an easy way, for
the pressure of the shoe tops nodded
the ankles. Remember this for future
days when high shoes return to fashion.
There are rollers. Rollers come IN
wood, and also in rubber; there are
some dozens of shapes, sizes and prices,
and you can choose whichever you
think best. These articles do reduce a
little, they may be a nuisance to use,
but the way to beauty is no easier than
to any other desirable goal. You have
to work for good things.
There is hand massage. This Is an
exercise for your arms, too, for II you
try to massage fiabby fat of your an
kleS you work hard at it, and it Is good
for you. You rub and knead, rub and
knead, for a full 10 or Is minutes q
day and you see results In few weeks.

Salt Cellars i'm Social History
BY LYDIA LIE BARON WALKER.

In these days, when salt is a COM
mon commodity, It is difficult to think
Of 1t in the light of luxury. Yet in
olden times it was. The meaning of
the expression worth his salt" was
not subtle, but actually significant of
person whose work was not worth the
precious salt he consumed.
Salt deservedly had a prestige among
foods. and a saltcellar was a grandiose
affair, occupying the center of table.
1t was a forerunner of the modern
decorative centerpieces. No other form
of decoration was needed. Those who
have been interested in the study of
silver realize the fine craftsmanship that
silversmiths put into the making of
SaltcellarS. The height may be COM
pared to that of candelabrum.
1t was not until generations after the
era of elaborate, high Saltcellars that
small salt containers came into use.
A common name for these was trench
err salts, because they we're placed one
on either side of the trencher or plat
ter, and later on at individual places.
1t was when SaltcellarS were center
pieces that the expression below the
SALT" implied that person was OF
Inferior social rank who was given
seat at table that actually was below
where the salt stood. The position OF
the cellar was before the king, or host
of high rank. Those about him were
of high status. The farther away from
this elaborate saltcellar persons were
placed the lower their rank. Saltcel.
lars were, therefore, kind OF social
register.
There came a time later on when
two saltcellars graced a table. Inc
host sat midway between them. Those
who were below the salt at either emo
those between belonged to the charmed
circle of intimates and peers.
So high a position in tableware did
saltcellars hold that they were enor-
rnously valuable, whether made OF pre-
cious metals. or combined of glass and
the metals, or of fine glass alone. To-
day saltcellars may be cheap or costly,
but they still remain among the ac-
cessorieS of the dining table that re-
ceive careful and artistic attention.
Containers may remain In trencher
style, in wee individual sizes, or IN
larger sizes, four being included IN
set for an average size table. Or the
containers may be the more modern
salt-shaker type. which at one time
threatened to drive the cellar type
from use, but unsuccesSfully. Today
the balance of popularity seems to be
even between salt cellars and salt
shakers. A new regard for the salt
containers is gained when the history
and significance of these accessories is
remembered. Today they are not I'M
posing, but they often are exquisite.

Everyday Psychology
BY DIR. JESSE W. sPRowLs.
Pessimism.

Some people are by nature pessi-
why this is so you need to consider
the mental background-that is, the
materials out of which the pessinist
is made.
The natural pessimist is an extrava-
CANT sensationalist. He lives pre-em-
inently on what he sees, hears. smells,
tastes and touches. In other words,
he gets his whole outlook on life
through the five senses. And, of course,
he values everything In life accord
ingly.
But any sense is easily jaded. One
tires of seeing the same landscape
eating the same food. hearing the same
music, meeting the same people, doing
the same work. Psychologists call this
sensory fatigue.
The pessimist, then. is one who soon
tires of his surroundings because he
knows them only in terms Of sensa-
ton. He becomes uneasy in his GUS
tomary surroundings. longs for new
sensation, jumps from place to place,
tries one lob. then another, readily
changes old friends for new.
In the course of time he completes
the round of ordinary attachments
Everything seems to hold mere tempo
rary value. AS middle age approaches
living begins to have q gloomy pros
pect. Nothing seems worth while, am
bitions are easily sidetracked. He feels
that he knows it all, since he has ex-
perienced everything. He withdraws
from society because people seem dull
and stupid. He makes no friends, wants
none. He takes refuge In his own imag-
nations, which are usually RETROSPECT

scope.
Then 1t is that sharp contrasts be-
tween the past and the present impress
him with the apparent uselessness OF
everything. The pessimiStic mold Is
cast. In little while the mind metal
is hardened. The pessimist is made.

WORLD FAMOUS STORIES
THE SQUIRE'S QUARREL
BY JAMES PAULDING.

log hut. Pursuing his labors, and
handling his ak like a notable wood
man, he in few years cleared the
land which he laid out into 13 good
farms; and building himself a fine
farmhouse, about half finished, began
to be quite snug and comfortable.
But Squire Bull, who was getting old
and stingy, and, besides, was in great
want Of money on account of his hav-
ing lately to pay damages for assault
ing his neighbors and breaking their
heads-the squire, say, finding Jona-
than was getting well to do in the
world, began to be very much troubled
about his welfare; so he demanded that
Jonathan should pay him good rent
for the land which he had cleared and
made good for something He trumped
up I know not what claim against him,
and under different pretenses managed
to pocket all Jonathan's honest gains.
In fact, the poor lad had not a shil-
ling left for holiday occasions; and, had
it not been for the filial respect he felt
for the old man, he would certainly
SitionS.
But for all this, in a little time
Jonathan grew up to be very large for
his age, and became a tall, stout,
double -jointed, broad-footed cub of a
| fellow, awkward in his gait and simple
| in his appearance: but showing a lively,
shrewd look, and having the promise of
great strength when he should get his
| full growth. He was rather an odd
looking chap, in truth, and had many
queer ways; but everybody that had
seen John Bull saw a great likeness
between them, and swore he was Johns
own boy and true chip Of the old
block.
Like the old squire, Jonathan was apt
| to be clustering and Saucy, but in the
main was a peaceable sort of careless
fellow that would quarrel with nobody
| If you would only let him alone. He
used to dress in homespun trousers. He
always wore a linSey-wolsey coat that
did not above half cover his breeches,
and the sleeves of which were so short
that his hand and wrist came out be-
yond them, looking like shoulder of
mutton, all which was in consequence
Of his growing so fast that he outgrew
his clothes.
While Jonathan was outgrowing his
strength in this way, Bull kept on pick
ing his pockets of every penny he could
scrape together; till at last one day
when the squire was even more than
usually pressing in his demands, which
he accompanied with threats, Jonathan
started up in furious passion and
threw the tea-kettle at the old mans
head.
The choleric Bull was hereupon ex-
ceedingly enraged, and, after calling
the poor lad an undutiful, ungrateful
rebellious rascal. seized him by the col
lar, and, forthwith, furious scuffe
ensued.
This lasted a long time; for the
squire, though in years, was capital
boxer
At last, however. Jonathan got him
under, and before he would let him UP
made him sign a paper giving up al
claim to the farms and acknowledging
} the fee-simple to be in Jonathan for
ever.
