Importance of Line i'm Clothes
BY MARY MARSHALL.

portance of line and accuracy Of con-
Struction. More trimming is used this
season than last-decidedly the tend
ency is toward greater elaboration. A
good rule to hold to is that the dress
must have smartness and charm before
the trimming is added and never to
add an inch of trimming that actually
detractS from the structural line of the
dress.
There are man was this season in
which ribbon may be used to igve just
the right note of ornamentation to the
homemade dress of silk or lightweight
wool. The dress shown in the sketch
was Of light beige georgette trimmed
with ribbon striped in two tones OF
brown
Bow trimmings are decidedly smart
and though they are sometime made OF
the material of which the dress is mede
they are often of ribbon in matching
or contrasting shade. Small fiat ribbon
bows are sometimes placed at the front
Of the bodice and a last seasons frock
in need of a little refurbishing might
quite easily be trimmed in this way.
Three uuarser-inch-Wi ribbon may
be effectively used to bind the edges
of ruffies or circular f1ounceS to give
them the stiffness needed for the fash
ionable flare and the fiat neckline and
arniholes of a sleeveless dress may con-
veniently be finished in the same way.
This weeks illustrated circular shows
how to make some of the fancy stitches
used on smart Summer dresses. II you

A Sermon for Today
How About Your Samuel2
By REV. JOHN n. GUM.

Text-"And Samuel came no more to
see SAUL. Sam, xv.35.
Samuel saw that Saul was giving him
the cold shoulder. That was why he
came no more to see Saul" He was
too much of a gentleman to push him
self in where he was not wanted.
Samuel was great friend of young
men. He established and conducted a
young mems school. He had a genius
men. Two of his wards, Saul and
David, he promoted to the kingship of
Israel.
After his promotion to the throne
Saul soon began to manifest cold in
difference toward Samuel, and ulti-
mately practically ignored him. Sur
rounded by courtiers and becoming self
willed and arrogant, he no longer had
any use for the old prophet who had
picked him up, an unknown country
youth, and started him on his way to
the throne. When Samuel saw which
way the wind was blowing naturally he
let Saul alone.
To modernize this, I wonder how
many Of our high officials are there be-
cause of some Samuel, some preacher,
perhaps, who discovered them and
started them out? And I wonder how
many of these high ones have forgotten
their Samuel and their debt of gratitude
to him? While wondering, I wonder
also how many there are among the
high and mighty in the world of finance
and business who owe an unpaid debt
of gratitude to some forgotten Samuel?
Make the matter personal. Somebody
started you, somebody whom you have
perhaps outstripped in worldly position
and advantage. Have you in any fitting
way shown your gratitude to that some
body? OF course, know all the Sam
uels have not been forgotten or ig-
nored. But-how about your Samuel?

Parenthesis Wrinkles.

The wrinkles that run down from the
wings Of the nose to the corners OF the
mouth are often called "parenthesis" or
expression lines. Laughing wrinkles is
another name for them, and it is easy
to see how the term originated. When
one laughs or smiles broadly these lines
appear at the sides of the mouth, but
if the cheek muscles are firm and the
skin sufficiently fabricated with natural
oil these creases smooth out as soon
as the face is in repose again. When,
however. the cheeks are f1abby and the
skin is too dry the expression lines grow
deeper and deeper.
Daily massage treatments are helpful
in routing the parenthesis wrinkles.
The purpose of the massage is twofold,
that is, it includes the fabrication of
the skin with massage cream and also
the stimulation of the underlying It's
sues. This stimulation is passive
form OF exercise and improves the cir
culation.
Of course, the skin should be thor
oughly cleansed before the treatment
begins. A suitable cream or oil is then
spread on the face. Take about tea
spoonful Of the massage cream on the
f1ngertips of your left hand. Rub it a
little with two fingers of the right hand
to smooth out any Jumps and make it
easier to spread. Use the same two
fingers of the right hand to apply the
cream.
The massage movements should be
upward and outward. Double up your
index finger and place 1t and your
thumb on your cheek in the position
required for pinching the cheek be-
tween the ball of the thumb and the
side Of the finger. Keep elbow raised
at shoulder level. Instead of pinching
your cheek execute an upward rotary
movement with the bent index finger

Psychic Adventures of
Great Men and Women
The Daemon Which Sent Socrates Cheeruly His Death.
BY ]. p. GLASS.

Tennyson declared that he frequently
experienced a sort Of waking trance
from boyhood on.
He was able to bring the trance con-
dition on by repeating his own name
to himself constantly until, as he said,
"the individuality itself seemed to dis
solve and fade away into boundleSS
being"
This, he added, "was not a composed
state, but the clearest Of the clearest,
the surest Of the surest, utterly beyond
words, where death was an almost
laughable impossibility. the loss Of per-
sonality (if so 1t were) seeming no ex-
tinction, but the only true life"
The poets reference to the death and
loss of personality brings back the his
toric instance of Socrates and his dae-
mon, an inner possession which the
philosopher did not personify, but
merely treated as a divine voice.
This voice spoke only to Socrates
when he was on the point of doing
guided him so well he obeyed 1t i'm
plicitly, even to the point of embracing
death.
AS every one knows, the great Greek
was put on trial for impiety. It was
charge he could easily have resisted,
and it also would have been easy for
him to escape from Athens, but he did
neither.
His life was at stake. and at first he
decided to fight the charges. But when
she set about preparing his speech Of
defense he was surprised when the dae-
mon directed him not to do so.
Throughout the trial he exasperated
the judges by his independent attitude.
Always his inner voice approved. And
finally, when he had been sentenced to
die by drinking hemlock, he was able to
say:
There has happened to me. o my
judges, a wonderful thing. For that
accustomed divine intimation in time
past came to me very many times and
met me on slight occasion if I were
about to act in some way not Alright;
but now this fate which We behold has
comes upon me-this which a man
might deem and which is considered
the very worst Of Ills. Yet neither when
/ left my home this morning was /
checked by that accustomed sign, nor
when I came up hither to the judg-
ment hall, nor at any point in my
speech as I spoke. And yet in other

Your Baby and Mine
BY MYRTLE MEYER ELDRED.

We know attention is stimulant de-
manded by children and adults alike
and it is apparent that the only child
will get an overdose of 1t. The impor-
lance of his existence, the fears which
fill his parents that something may
happen to him, exaggerate their con-
Germ when he fails to eat, when he
any way from the schedule they have
laid down for him.
And not one iota of this exaggerated
concern and agitation over him is lost
on the child. And not one child but
makes use of it.
Who ever heard of child in an in
stitution, where individual attention is
necessarily limited, having to be read
or sung to, or bribed by offers Of treats
to eat his vegetable or clean up his
cereal? Who ever heard Of the child
in large and Indifferent family where
food is at premium tagging a half
hour over his meal and then being
coaxed to finish it? No one.
Where indifference reignS the child
looks out for himself, for there is no
one to do it for him. In the busy, not
too affiuent, household If he doesn't
pitch in and fill up" he'll find the
platters clean.
1t is the well cared for child-the only
child as a rule-who spurns his food,
who demands story for every bite or
a soi.g for every sip, who gets what his
heart desires in the way of attention
and rewards, because he has learned
that If he says Don't give me any
vegetables" and the doctor has said he
must have vegetables, he is completely
master of the dinner table.
If he remains an only and pampered
child until school days, he will meet
some distressing situations. Teacher
may not be attracted to him and give
her smiles to William who sits next
him. His playmateS may refuse to be
march or Sally recite the poem she has
learned. No one cares about his visit
to his grandmother, and no one says
f1atteringly that his ill-drawn crayon
man is the work of an artist. In fact,
school is a cold place, where one earns
ones right to a top position instead of
having it handed one on a platter.
Parents of only children could soften
these blows by an assumed, If not very
sincere, Indifference. A nap can be
missed without tearing the household
is no dreadful tragedy. Meals should
be eaten because one is hungry and
wants them. not because mother is
ready and willing to read one a story
as a reward for obedient swallowing.
BY such methods only can the child
get wholesome and healthy viewpoint
of all ordinary habits to be performed
daily. They are done (not to please the
parents and win approbation) to enjoy
the pleasures of life as a healthy child
should.
He honestly isn't the most wonderful
child in the world-except to his par
ents-and they should be sensible
enough to keep it to themselves.
