New York. April 17.-A bold command, "H1nds Up!" should tn compiled with eagerly by any smart woman this Easter time.
 For she who is really smart will bo gloved so stylishly that it will be a pleasure to hold up her hands and show. them off.
 New gloves do put real beauty into the hollow of her hand! The colors are so delicately pastel, or so contrastinsiy dark, and the ma terials are so fine and supple since delicate suedes, glace kids, cham ois and doeskins all are used
 The real trick that guarantees positive han1fals of chic this spring is to select ones gloves with direct consideration of the type of costume they accompany. Gloves, it must be noted, are as in- dividual as women themselves Some are outspoken in their sports feeling, others are elegantly dis posed towards formal evening par ties, still others are suited to day. time events.

Things In Wrong Places

Things In Wrong Places
 Things that have no business there occasionally get into tho ear, nose, throat and food-pipe.
 Their presence in these places is always dscomfortins and fre- cuently dangerous. Their removal may be- simple matter, but more often requires skill and caution.
 The ear, that is, the outer canal, is often the victim of intrusion.
 Insects may on their own initi- ative attempt to explore the cavity, or children may push objects into it. When this occurs. tho fact that should be borne in mind is that tho outer ear canal ends bluntly at the ear drum. and that objects if pushed far enough in may injure tho drum and the minute bones fixed to it.
 Never attempt to remove for eisn object from the ear with any sharp or rigid instrument. In fact, nothing but a soft stream from an oar syringe may be employed by amateur hands with any degree Of safety.

Younger Brother By Alice Judson Peale


 Five-year-old Tommy was never sp happy as during the days when his two older brothers were sick in bed with colds in their heads.
 He who spent his days trailing at their heels, accepted in their games only on sufferance. and occupying generally tue position of the under deg, was now the person of whom they must ask favors and whose company they sought. All day long it was:
 Tommy, will you get me this? Tommy. will you do that? Tommy come here. I want you. No, he's coming over 10 me first,'
 And Tommy made the most of it. He came at their calls, or not, as it pleased him. He saw to it thlt they asked politely for favors and he did them in his own good time. He would not have been human r. he had not thoroughly enjoyed this reversal of their respective posi- tions.
 Parents seldom appreciate how difficult is the position of the youngest child in the family, espe- cially when he feels himself in com petition with his older brothers and is thus daily reminded of his infe- riority to them.
 We need to take particular pains to see to 1t that the baby of the family neither feels too keenly this overwhelming competition with the older children nor takes refuge in playing upon the fact that he 's the youngest, demanding all sorts Of privileges and immunities which he should be ready to forego as ne

that is that.
 Beiges have rose casts this sea- son, instead of the sunburn tones of the past, though some of them take on. a hint of blues, to match up with the overwhelming prefer ence for blues and blacks in cos tunes this spring. The short black glove. the navy blue one, and the dark green long glove are all neW and very chic, in their own place. A light grayish tone is excellent and white kids are new and cont ing style light. For formal weac, If one has a single pair, by all means it should be eggshell. After that, all the delicate pinks, greens, pale blues and lavenders are good.
 Fancy gloves that feature con- trasting feathers for trim are var jed beyond description. Stitch ings in scarlet on white, insets and even buttons of navy blue on beige, browns with tans, red ani blue on white, diagonal lines in multitone, embroidery and wrist lets of color on plain all are shown. There are even reversible gloves of two colors and others with the cuffs lined with suits material and belted at the cuff,

A lot of time some people waste While thinking they are making ~ haste.
 Old Mother Nature Unc' Billy Possum could think Of nothing but tresh eggs. No one likes eggs better than does CnH' Billy Possum. Now that he suspect fd that Mrs. Quack the MallaTi Duck had a nest somewhere aroun'l the Smiling Pool or down the Laughing Brook, his one and only thought was to find that nest. II. 4&tnacked his lips as he thought or The delicious big eggs that must b. in that nest
 - .Ah reckon there mus be a lot of em too," sad Inc Billy to him, Self "Yes, sah, An reckon there mus be lot of 'em, Sis Mallard believes in big families and An agrees with her there"
 Now, Unc' Billy is very sly Some people think him stupid but he isn't at all stupid Often when he Appears most stupid he is in reality most clever. It is part of his clev- -erness to appear very stupid tt times. He is smart enough to knoW 8 great deal about his neighbors, He knows great deal about Farm CT Browns hens and about ducks and about other birds that nest on the ground, an1 even about mady that nest in trees. The reason nc knows go much about them is ba- cause of eggs. If you would hay2 esgs you must know about those who lay eggs and where they make their nests. So Unc' Billy has paid considerable attention 10 these things.

Right away he guessed tha, that nest was somewhere along the Laughing Brook. below the Smiling Pool. You see, he knew that there is a little swamp through which the Laughing Brook flows on ita way from the Smiling Pool to the Big River. Unc' Billy was sure tha; somewhere over there Mrs Quacn had her nest.
 All An done got 10 do is to look aroun' over there. An reckon Ali can fin it." said tnc' Billy.

 I'm sorry. Of course. I realize now," I said I've been asleep ever since I sat down here. My niece would say it was good joke on me. I was SO sure that I could not sleep. But it's all the fault Of your armchair. It's the most com- 'fortable chair I ever sat in"
 The little woman glowed.
 Tt Is comfortable" she admitted shyly. T often take a nap in il myself. Do you want to telephone now?"
 Her head moved ever so slightly toward the next room, and l read the unconscious movement with amused sympathy. She had spent her married fife trying to keep pace with her energetic bustling husband and generally found her. self a step behind, But there was no 'unhappiness in her tardness, for there was in Mir. Trains eyes - anyone could see it-the warm af- lection which was his for the little wife who patently cushioned all the corners for him. But it was not in her creed to delay him in anything. He had arranged to have mo telephone now, and telephone l must.
 Yes" I replied. T will come at once"
 I walked beside her into the next room to find Mir. Train already seat cd by the telephone.
