Dry Skin.

A great many of my readers appear
to be greatly distressed because the
skin is inclined to be of the dry type
and at the same time to have tendency
toward enlarged pores and tiny black
heads forming about the chin, nose
and mouth. The question is how to
counteract this beauty blemish and how
to combine treatment that will serve
both purpoSes-that of lubricating the
skin and stimulating the relaxed facial
pores, especially those obstructed by the
tiny blackheads that mar the clearness
of the complexion.
An oil facial pack is splendid for
compilations that are of the dry type
and, combined with aStringent COM
presses applied to the parts affected, Is
one OF the very best remedies for a
skin which is of the above type. 1t is
possible to work a great improvement
by series Of home treatments that !
shall describe for you in todays beauty
talk.
My readers must keep in mind, how
ever, that the chief factor in retaining
and preserving a clear skin is good
health. Nothing can take the place of
this, for the healthy skin has a texture
and glow about it that cannot be
counterfeited. Milady's complexion may
be said to reflect the condition of her
digestive tract; If her skin is rough and
her eyes dull, the cause is almost al
ways digestive trouble. Remember, too,
that lack of fresh air and sunshine or
out-of-doors exercise will rob the skin
Of its natural beauty. A sluggish cir
the skin look old. So milady must
watch the unhygienic habits that are
the underlying cause Of complexion
blemishes and at the same time use the
correct local treatments. This dual
method cannot be beaten.
The materials required for this par
ticular facial treatment include Cd a
lightweight cleansing cream or oil, C2) a
good skin food or massage cream, 80
a skin tonic and astringent, "a muscle
oil or oil of sweet almonds, (5) absorb
ent cotton, tissue squares and small
turkish towels. Flrst-coat the skin of
the face and neck with cleansing cream
or oil, then wipe off the surplus cream
with the tissue square. This softens
the skin and removes all the makeup
and dust. Wiring out a small towel in
hot water and with 1t wipe the face
free from every particle of the cleans
ing agent. Next moisten a pad of
absorbent cotton in a skin stimulant
and go over the entire face and neck
with a gentle upward pattering move
ment. Now your face is ready for the
skin food. Apply generously and mas
sage with the usual upward, rotary,
pattering movements with the finger
tips for several minutes Wipe off the
excess cream and apply the warm oil in
the following manner: Heat about two
tablespoonfuls Of the muscle oil or oil
of sweet almonds and pat it all over
the face and neck. Cut a square OF

to cover the face. Lay it on and then

Nightly Treatment.

The real time for a beauty treatment
d at night. The more tired you are,
the more necessary the treatment, for
great fatigue puts lines into the face
and ansimmediate beauty treatment will
rub these out. Also, the treatment is
followed by hours and hours of relaxa-
ton and sleep, which makes it even
more effective.
So. no matter how late the hour nor
how much you long for bed. go through
Q regular routine, one which you have
ment for yourself. Pull your hair back
(no use getting it greasy from cream)
and cover your face and your neck
with either a light cleansing cream or
else almond or olive oil. AS you are.
or should be, partly undreSsed, cover
your elbows with bit Of the cream. too.
Rub gently but briskly into the skin
and wash 1t all out with warm, soapy
water.
This is q general direction, good for
everybody. There are special things to
tollow-n you have wrinkles, put a
little heavy massage, nourishing cream
around the eyes and wherever the wrin-
kleS are platnest. If your muscles sag,
give yourself a quick massage while
you use the cleanser, with upward mo-
ttons to lift those muscles. If you've

Fashions of Today


A few pounds extra weight evenly
distributed are hardly detriment, but
when those few pounds all settle in
the region of the waistline or just above
it-as they so frequently do-they are
hardly a blessing. But they may be
disguised if one chooses ones clothes
with care.
The old-fashioned lower waiStline and
straight silhouette had its advantages
for these women. The new, more close
ly nodded lines and the raised waist
line have their distinct advantages.
Certainly no woman of this group
should attempt dress of the new prin-
cess description.
Boleros and capeS are usually thought
to be inappropriate to the woman Of
generous build and so they are to the
woman who carries many ounces about
the shoulders. Short boleros are a bad
choice for the woman of full diaphragm,
but the longer bolero effect may be
adapted admirably to hide her defects
and the shoulder cape that ends in
fichu drapery at the front is another
good choice.
The figure that is thick near the
walStline has a tendency to bring the
lines Of the dress upward at the front,
especially when a ready-made dress has
been bought that does not make allow
ance for this fullneSs though large
enough in the shoulders and hips. II
dress with distinct blouse effect is
chosen this Is not apparent. Dresses
with skirts that are made to hang
longer at the back than the front should
De avoided as they tend to exaggerate
this defect.

OUR CHILDREN
BIZ ANGELO PATRI.
Brief Authority,

just q few years and 1t is over, this
brief authority we hold over our chill
dren. So swiftly they pass that there
seems but day between the shorts and
the striped trousers of the bridegroom,
between the blue rompers and the long
white gown of the bride. So brief q
time before we must render account of
this authority to those upon whom we
exercised it.
Il got away from home as soon as I
could because never had a moment
OF liberty. If mother wasn't bossing me,
father was. had no chance Maybe
1t might have been wiser to wait few
years, but with home as 1t was, I
thought I'd rather take the risk" That
is sad arraignment Of authority.
School? left school as soon as ever
I could and went to work. I had a
teacher who nagged us from morning
to night. The principal always said the
teacher was right, no matter how wrong
she was. know I gave them some
trouble but nothing to make them want
to drive me out That's what they
seemed to want. Nothing ever did was
right. was forever breaking their
rules and forever in trouble. I had to
get out"
1t is terrible thing to drive a child
out OF school. School ought to be place
child can find a place in school pro-
vided the teacher puts affection and
understanding in the place of authority.
Because want to help you" will do
what because I have authority over
you," never can do. We are made that
way and teachers above all people
should know what children are made of
and how to direct them to better ways.
Laws are poor enough forces for aid
ing a child to righteous living They
are always the last resort of intelligent
people. They should be the very very
last resource of parents and teachers
Take for granted that the children want
to be right and do right. You may do
so safely, for rightness is the basic law
OF spiritual growth. All humanity tends
toward rightnesS. Then study YOUR
child and find just how far along the
road to rightness he has travelled. Some
go farther and faster than others. You
must place each as he travels and be
ready to go along with him in that
place where you find him. It is i'm
possible to help him where he is not,
So place yourself by his side without
making any remarks about his delaying,
| his SlowneSs, his poverty y-stricken equip
ment. Stride along by his side and
lead him, not by authority, but by un-
derstanding and affection Like him.
Want to help him. Forget about your
| certificates and degrees, your place in
society and your duty to convention and
law and order Your first duty Is to
this child who needs you. Let authority
sit in the courts where no child ever
| should be, never would be, If we under
| stood our duty better
There is a word above authority and
| that is love

Your Baby and Mine


Some questions pop UP so constantly
and are answered so often that We
sometimes forget to include them in the
column. Because we meet them daily
we think all mothers are conversant
with them. If you haven't asked these
typical questions in the past you've nc
doubt wondered about them.
IT am writing to you again." SAYS
Mrs. A. M. NJ, ito ask you some uues-
tionS. Baby is IL months old and
weighs 81 pounds. When he is getting
one quart of milk. should it be boiled
Need it be warmed for him to drink?
When can discontinue putting wa
ter in his orange juice?
Up to what age should baby have
sieved vegetables and fruits?"
Boil the milk daily during the Sum-
mer months, especially if you are not
using paSteurized grade A milk for the
baby or are uncertain of your milk sup
ply or do not have large quantities of
ice.
Always do this when you get milk
from city dairy. or from a small
town dairy where hygienic measure
may not be strictly enforced, or when
IL.
for the day.
Boil the milk in hot weather. There
Is no one rule so eminently advisable to
follow.
After the milk is boiled it should be
cooled rapidly and kept ice-cold until
used. When child Is being fed vege-
tables and cereals and other warm
foods at a meal the milk need not be
served hot. The child of l year
should be taking his milk by cup, and a
cup OF hot milk is not as appetizing as
a cup OF cold milk. When the milk is
taken from the ice box let babys cupful
stand for moment in pan of hot
water until 1t is just cool, and not ice
cold. If baby is still taking a bottle at
night. that bottle may be warm, as warm
milk is soothing and sleep-provoking.
Plain orange juice without water can
be given after baby is months old,
providing it is mild, naturally sweet
orange juice. If the oranges are sour
(some of them are this time of the
year, dilute the Juice to make it more
agreeable to baby.
There are no set dates at which
vegetables need not be sieved. Usually
after about the fourteenth month the
child OF good digestion can manage un-
sieved vegetables if they are young and
cooked until very tender. Cellulose,
which makes up large proportion of
most vegetables, is practically indiges-
tible. This is the portion that gives
bulk to the stools and thus stimulates
bowel activity. In large quantities it
might be Irritating to the child, so for
young babies this indigestible element
is best sieved out. Try some unsieved
vegetables for baby, and If he takes
them easily and shows no unusual bowel
activity because of them, cook them well
and mash instead of sieving them.

When psychic occurrences are being
discussed, Tito Schipa, tenor of the
Chicago Opera, always has interesting
experiences to describe.
once, for instance, he saw the ap-
partition OF woman with a Spanish
vell and fan. He was only a boy then,
IN Lecce, italy, and he had not seen
such a woman, or such a costume in
actual life. Later, however. visiting
with his mother at the home of an
uncle in Parma, he came upon the pic
ture OF a lady In Spanish veil and
carrying Spanish fan, in a photo
graph album.
"Mama!" he exclaimed. "this is the
lady saw in the apparitionl"
1t turned out that the photograph
was of his uncle's lately deceased wife.
1t had been taken in Spain at the time
OF their marriage. Furthermore, it was
proven that she had died on the very
night that Tito had seen her appari-
ton.
This experience, however, does not
rank with the adventure met with by
Schipa not long after he had started
his career as an opera singer. 1t was
at Vercelli, where he had made his de-
but in "Traviata"
This was long before the time when
pr1ncely income. In fact, his pay was
small, and at Vercelli the inn where he
stopped was old, gloomy and none too
comfortable.
The place was wrapped in an at
mosphere of uncertainty, which made
etdc1ent management unlikely. Schipa
had not been staying there long when
he learned the reason. The ownership
Of the inn was in doubt. The previous
owner had died without leaving a will.
At least one could not be found. This
was embarrassing. For generations it
had been the custom that the inn
should be inherited by the eldest son,
whose whole life was course of prepa-
ration for this event. Now, because
there was no will, the eldest son would
not inherit the place, which must be
sold so that the proceeds could be di-
vided among all the family. The eldest
son; now serving as manager; was sad
through the entire personnel.
Notwithstanding this, the inn was
crowded, there being an unusual num-
Der of visitors to the city. The conse-
quence was that the inkeeper had had
to place, Tito Schipa in the room in
which his father had recently died.
The singer had no foolish fears of
ghosts, perhaps because he already had
had an experience with one. He took
the room philoSophically and slept
soundly.
His second night in the room was
more eventful. To begin with, he had
hard time getting to sleep. When
he finally .dozed of, he was quickly
awakened. He heard a noise above his
head as of bird whirring about.

overhung the water. Peter knew that
RattleS was watching for fish.
Suddenly 1t came to Peter that the
Smiling Pool didn't seem to be quite
what it should be. All these things
were as he had seen them many times,
but he had a feeling that there was
something ODD about the Smiling Pool
Peter slowly scratched long ear with
long hindfoot.
1T seems to me-" said he thought
fully, that I miss something. don't
know what 1t is I miss, but I miss
something"
He sat up very straight and looked
the Smiling Pool all over. There was
the Big Rock on which he had so
often seen Jerry Muskrat, or sometimes
Billy Mink. There was the Laughing
Brook coming in at the upper end and
leaving at the lower end There were
the green banks, high in some places
and low in others. 1t was all very, very
familiar. Still Peter had sense of
missing something.
Then, quite abruptly, it popped into
Peters head what it was he missed.
1T isn't here!" he exclaimed right out
loud
What isn't l1ere?" asked Grandfather
Frog in his gruff voice.
Jerry Muskrat's house!" cried Peter.
"Of course it isn't here" replied
Grandfather Frog. Have you just dis

Peter nodded "Yes," said he meekly.
Has It been gone very long time?"
Ever since the Spring flood" replied
Grandfather Frog. You don't use your
eyes very we'll. You've been over here
times enough to discover long ago that
Jerry MuSkrat's house is missing"
Its too bad isn't it?" said Peter.
Whats too bad?" inquired Grand

Why, that Jerry Muskrat hasn't any

question Schipa asked himself as he
Ilnally struggled into full wakefulness
however, he got up and examined the
left wall of the room. 1t looked ex-
actly like the three others, except that
an old oil painting hung against the
wood panels with which it was wains-
coted to the ceiling.
Nothing about the wall to interest
him, the tenor decided. He got back
into bed: At once he heard three raps
against the panels of the left wall.
After all, there must be a bat
caught somewhere back there" he said
to himself Il must get 1t out II l

He dragged a table to the wall
mounted it and took down the paint
ing, which depicted the martyrdom of
st. Sebastian, showing the bleeding
wounds. At its back the gleam of
white paper caught his eye. There was
sheet of it. neatly folded, stuck be-
tween the wooden stretcher and the
canvas.
He pulled the paper out and took II
to window. 1t was the lost will of
the dead inkeeper.
A sudden tremor shook him. His
knees knocked The voice he had
heard must have been the voice of a

concluded after all, he merely had

finding OF the document. OF course,
there might have been a bat in the
room to arouse his dream thoughts, al

heard, with its rich appeal for a SEN
sitive imaginative artist.
Still, 1t was strange, thea4yay in
