Why Mr.. Coolidge
Chose Cosmopolitan

NTR. COOLIDGE not only did us the
E1V1 honor of choosing Cosmopolitan to
publish his story, but he also did US the
favor of putting in few words an excel
lent sales argument for our magazine.
With his faculty for applying common
sense to a question, he pointed to factor
which should make this magazine differ
from a1lothers in the eyes of the advertiser.
4s1aA&sxss
The editor of Cosmopolitan was discuss
ing with Mr.. Coolidge the advantages of
presenting his story in monthly maga-
zine, and particularly in Cosmopolitan.
The best of the weekly magazines, the
editor felt, was only little less ephemeral
than a daily newspaper. Any monthly
magazine had much longer life. And be-
cause Cosmopolitan was produced on
standard which enabled it to sell at 35c,
the editor believed it was kept longer and
read more thoroughly than any other gen.
eral magazine. Mr.. Coolidge thought a
moment, then said:
'Yes, svhen yOn pGy35cf for a magazine,
that nrGgazfre takes on IN Jour
eyes the nature of a book and
sou treat it GCcOrdjNgy.
Mr.. Coolidge was correct. Cosmopolitan
is kept throughout the month, and some
times longer. In most cases, it is read by
every member of the family. To use an
advertising term, it has the longest "read'
ing life" of any publication of volume cir
culation. That is one of several reasons
why it delivers generous results to
advertisers.

Play at Shore or in City Yard
BY LYDIA LIE BARON WALKER.

to be, as we'll as those who are actually
suffering from some recognized ailments,
will usually respond to seashore air ana
come home with rosy cheeks and brown
skins after a vacation spent chiefly dig
ging in the sands of lake or seashore.
If Summer at the sea cannot be
managed, the next best thing is to pros
vide the youngsters with a sand box
and the fascinating Seashore equipments
of pail, shovel and sand toys. Put the
box in some spot in the garden that is
shady, for in the city the heat is apt to
be so intense during the major part OF
the day that shade is necessary for en-
joymenC. There will be plenty of OPP
portunity for sun baths without having
the childrens play place unsheltered.
Even on beaches protection in the hot
test part of day has to be found under
beach umbrellas, if playing on these
sands is enjoyable or even permissible
in many instances.
A child may have to be lured into a
garden playground, but no inducements
have to be offered to tempt him to the
enjoyment of beach where dabbling
in the water as we'll as playing in the
sands lends enchantment.
Playing out of doors is hungry work.
This is one reason why it is so bene-
fetal. A mid-meal luncheon or some
simple eatables should be provided. Milk
can be had at home, and with the aid
of vacuum bottle it can be carried to
the beach and kept sweet and cold. A
bag of crackers or simple cookies or a
few sandwiches to go with the milk are
enough. For children who are older
than these little tots fruit makes a
wholesome and refreshing mid-meal.
With fruit. milk or some cold drink is
not essential, but with the crackers,
cookie or sandwich mid-meal, milk or
water should always be provided.

Woman. as Financier.

We conduct a department in finan-
cial publication. Our department is in
tended to look after the interests Of
woman investors, and their number Is
greater by far than most folk realize.
Thousands of women look to us for
information and advice, and the major
ity of them display an intelligent un-
Outstanding Of investments.
We have data to disprove any theory
that all women are born gamblers or
that they only buy stock to speculate.
It is not a fact, either, that women
take their losses to heart or become
Frustrated by the sight Of depressing
news on ticker tape.
In fact, women nowadays are showing
more interest and more knowledge than
their husbands with regard to invest
ments, and quite often their Judgment
Is superior to that Of the man Of the
family"
The average husband evaluates a
stock by its market price or by the trend
of prices in an industry similar to the
company in which he owns stock. The
result Of that sort of evaluation Is not
always happy or satisfactory.
We have continually stressed the fact
that stocks must be examined for their
particular merits, and regardless of
market price or trend. In other words,
an oil stock may be good despite the
doldrums of the industry.
On the other hand. If rail stocks
show a tendency to climb in price, 1t is
no indication one may rush blindly into
the market and buy the first rail stock
offered, hoping it will follow the leaders.
One more point We have stressed is
that the leaders in an industry always
offer the best buys II they are priced
approximately at their actual value.
Many Of the bits of knowledge that
we impart to our woman readers would
have mystified them a few years back,
when investment was considered field
too banning for woman's cerebral equip
ment.
Today we can use market phrases and
terms freely. If you do not understand
such terms as margin" long pull"
"convertibles," Junior securities" call
money" and so on, you are behind your
times.
Worse, for if you are unfamiliar with
investment principles and practices you
will be reliant on others to handle your
money for the rest of your days. And
a small fraction of American woman
hood does not get to handle some
money, though it be only insurance

The Chin Line.

Whatever part of your body you may
neglect. be sure that you keep the line
under your chin Arm and slender and
young. A bad chin will ruin your full
face as well as your profile, 1t will make
you look middle-aged no matter what
your real years may be, will make you
look fat though you may be only few
pounds overweight, 1t will make you look
coarse and even common. There are
only q few possible treatments for a
bad chine line. but none Of them is
very complicated. If your double chin
is due to general fat, of course you
begin and reduce at once, meantime
massaging the chin and treating it with
ice so the muscles will remain firm while
the fat disappears from under the skin
A considerable amount of skin will have
to shrink by the time you've reduced
to normal weight.
The skin is extraordinarily flexible
however. and the shrinking process will
be greatly aided II the chin line Is rub
bed with ice, which will shrink the
skin while 1t tones up the f1abby muscles
Fitted rubber chin straps also help In
reducing superhuouS flesh, though I
do not think these are of any value In
making the muscles firm after re-
duction.
Nightly massage with a flesh build
ing cream IS vital for an old chin or
for dry wrinkled skin. Ice is valuable
for everything; used In conjunction
with massage and cream it is the ideal
treatment. An occasional bracing with

It all depends upon how you say It..
There was once a clergyman by the
name of Twitchel. In the pulpit he
maintained a gravity of manner and
expression, but out of the pulpit was a
regular fellow. Occasionally he would,
If the emergency required, introduce
something queer in a sermon for the
sake of arousing the attention of the
congregation.
One Sunday, seeing that his hearers
we're becoming sleepy, he paused in his
sermon and said: Brethren, you
haven't any idea of the sufferings OF
our missionaries in the new settlements
on account of the mosquitoes. The
mosquitoes in some OF these regions are
enormous. A great many OF them
would weigh pound, and they will get
on the logs and bark when the mis-
sionaries are going along"
BY this time all ears and eyes were
open and he proceeded to finish his
discourse. The next day one OF the
church members called him to account
for telling lies in the pulpit.
There never was mosquito that
weighed a pound" he said.
But" replied the minister. IT didn't
say. one Of them would weigh pound;
I said a great many, and think MIL
lion of them would"
But you said that they barked at
the missionaries"
NO, no, brother; said they would
get on the logs and bark"

It is said that a certain minister mar
ried a woman who endowed him with
$4,000. Shortly afterward, while
occupying his pulpit, he gave out a
hymn, read the first four verses and
was proceeding to read the fifth, COM
mencing, Forever let my grateful
heart"
Suddenly he hesitated and stopped
