Straight Talks to Women About Money
By MARY ELIZABETH ALLEN.

Once upon a time-yet it was only
six months ago-a young sales girl de-
cided to set up in business for herself
The thing which made her give up
her job and launch her own little ven
ture IN the sea of business was nothing
more than conversation she overheard
between the buyer for her division and
the head of the department. In that
little talk she learned that the proprie-
tors of her store were buying the articles
at dollar each which she sold over the
counter for half as much again.
We'll, If there's that much profit in
this kind Of business I'm going to cash
in on it myself" she said almost out
loud, and proceeded forthwith to invest
her little savings of $500 in a brand
new stock of goods
When these are sold" she figured,
sI'H have $3.50 of my own, and with
that I can make half as much again,
Just as fast as I can turn over the
goods. Pretty soon I'll be rich, oh Joy,
and won't have to work for q living"
So much for the first chapters of a
thrilling but tragic little story. The
last chapter concluded with q for
rent" sign In the place she had fitted
up so quickly. And the passing of this
little shop added Just one additional
nuneral to what win be 1.-THE Statis-
tics of Business Failures in 1929"

Among the seasons handsome pieces
of embroidered linen few are more ef-
fective than those in which colored
applique is combined with cut work.
The type of needlecraft referred to is
not to be mentioned in the class with
the ordinary applique done on break
fast cloths for Summer cottage use.
1t is the sort worthy of inclusion with
choice embroideries.
A high grade of cream or white linen,
preferably the round thread linen, such
as the Italians use for their needlecraft,
is employed for the foundation. A finer
quality Of lighter weight is right for
the colored applique. The motifs are
couched down about the edges. For
this a fine cord the same color as that
of the motif is selected, and it is worked
over with thread to match, or silk If
the cord is silken.
The cutwork is used with the utmost
reserve, only little appearing on most
pieces. The bars are laid from one
design motif to another or to some
terminating point designated, and are
of linen thread matching the color Of
the foundation. The bars are corded;
that is, they are covered by winding
the same linen thread in the needle
about the connecting lines in prefer
ence to covering them with buttonhole
stitches. The bars should be made be-
fore the colored motifs are appliqued
TO the foundation, but the linen should
not be cut away until the last thing.

HEATING PLANT

It's good to have heating plant that
functions without flaw or hitch, and
sit in comfort with your aunt, when
wintry tempests rear and pitch. The
air is full Of snow and sleet, the loud
wind raves across the void; but you
turn on the helpful heat, and care no
boot about the cold No greater COM
fort can you know than that impaired
by fire, when all the world is full OF
snow and there are storms and bllz-
yards dire. In drowSy peace the long
hours drift, while you indulge in studies
brown; and you reflect once more that
thrift is human wisdom all boiled down.
There are a thousand weary wights
who shiver in the bitter gales, who
wander in the dark cold nights with
whiSkers frozen hard as nails. You
think about them as you bask in solid
comfort, at such times: you also think
about the caSk IN which you sailed
down the dimes. You were a cautious,
prudent lad, you had the sense to look
ahead. you saved the money, scad by
Scad, that you might be well housed
and fed. And there were fellows, blithe
and gay, who called you "tightwad" and
the like. as they pursued their needless
way through all the joints along the
pike. They held it shame to save n
red. to put a kopeck down in brine.
"for man will be long time dead, and
while he lives should rise and shine
And now those boys are in the Sleet, in
wretchednesS they sigh and pant, while
you turn on the modern heat, and sit
in comfort with your aunt

De cut away are neatly buttonhole
stitched. Then the color patches are
baSted down and the edges finely run
to the foundation. These edges are
then covered with the finest of braid
or of several strands of the embroidery
medium held in position by the stitches
across it, which match in kind and
color SO perfectly that they are scarcely
discernible. To render them invisible
the threads should be single floss
strands, triple-aught silk, or 1000 linen,
and the stitches must be taken In the
same direction as the cord covering or
weave.
Stems and connecting lines of stitch
cry used in the embroidery may be in
outline, stem stitch or chain stitch
II there are wide lines in the design,
these are generally overlaid with ap-
plique and corded along both edges.
Appliqued colors are soft, not bizarre.
Sage green is a favorite for foliage.
PinkS on the rose tones, mulberry, lilac
and lemon, with some deeper yellows,
are most frequently employed for flow
erS. For geometrical patterns these
same colors are decidedly in evidence.
These colors are suggested, but any
color which harmoniZes with the color
scheme Of dining room may be used,
In rooms other than the dining room,
where table covers and scarfS, bureau
and dresser sets and other accessories
of this type can be used appropriately
the color schemes should be equally
artistic and harmonious.

OUR CHILDREN
Adopted Child.
.(Copyrisht, lsso.)
by ANGELO PArRI.

It is difficult for any child to get
himself grown up, but it seems to be
particularly difficult for some of the
adopted children.
When people decide that they want
to adopt a child they usually have a
well defined picture Of the child they
want. He is to I'LL some long-desired
ideal.
Now children are never ideal crea-
lures. They do not come that way.
When parents feel that theirs Is an
ideal child It is a feeling, not fact
as facts in this material world can be
measured and judged. Love colorS
everything 1t touches with the hues of
hope-the rainbow. Parental love, espe-
cially maternal love, has q genius for
laying on such color.
The adopted child has not the appeal
Of the family-borp child. Where with
her own child a nEpther is sure, she is
only hopeful, fearful and DESTROYS for
the adopted child. When things 60
wrong the latent fears come to the top
and distort whatever happens. Dtsobe-
dience, wfllfulness, unhappy traits in
the adopted child stick out like sore
thumbs. The same qualities displayed
in the family-born child cause but O
ripple Of distress.
The adopted child is a stranger child.
He has not inherited the family traits.
He is without their tradition. He can
be conditioned just so far and no far
ther. He will have to follow the pat
tern laid down in the beginning for his
growth and development and II this
carries him far afield, If it differs greatly
from that approved by the family of
his adoption, trouble gathers thick and
fast.
Environment is tremendous force in
the life Of a child but before it does its
work inheritance has begun its share in
the fulhllment Of destiny. In other
words, you cannot condition Q child to
any habit, or quality, or reaction to
which its being is a stranger. You can
never take out what nature has planted
in the blood and bone. The dominant
traits will hold. You can modify the
lesser ones, you can suppress and ac-
sent and cover up, but you cannot create
where nature has preceded you.
Be very gentle with the adopted child
then. Through no fault Of his, life has
placed him in a foreign environment.
He is often deaf and blind to its appeals
because he was tuned and set for a
different level. Instead OF being sure,
positive, determined about his demon
STATIONS, better be watchful, question
ing, welcoming This child may have
hidden treasure within him that your
preconceived ideas have smothered. He
may be a shining light in a field to
which you are the stranger.
While it is essential to know all you
can about any child in your care, it
is imperative that you study the child
of adoption. Watch for his signals and
do your very best to interpret them to
his development remembering that he
is just as good for him as you are good
Iafor you" No two children of a family
are ever alike. How much apart then
must you and this stranger child be-?
Only by watchfuf, honest study can you
hope to help Dim to happy development.

recognize that the difference between
the purchase and the selling price of
goods has to cover the expense of doing
business, as well as providing a profit.
OF course, this case was particularly
fragrant. Others don't seem so simple,
especially If you or happen to be the
ones who are excited about the pros
poets.
Women who are inexperienced in the
dangers and the costs of doing bust
ness are particularly likely to run into
some such trouble when they start out
to launch tea room, speciality shop,
or perhaps a beauty parlor.
And so the woman shoppers are the

Tense for "priee-gouging' and profiteer-

women become one whit less critical
about what they pay for things. What
We need is not less concern on the part
OF women, but more intelligent under
standing Of the processes and require
mentS of modern business. This is
almost as essential for the woman who
merely patronizes other concerns, and
for her who has her own venture, be-
cause the criticizing and complaints Of
women will never be heard with proper
respect until they show an understand
ing of the principal problems involved.

Southern wear there are separate short
capes with matching separate skirts
which are worn with separate blouse
or jumper as one might wear skirt and
cardigan or lightweight jacket suit.
Then there are short jackets made with
out sleeves with the short cape and for
more general wear short jackets with
long straight sleeves, the upper parts of
which are hidden by short capes. Oc-
casionally there are short jacket suits
with short, detachable capes which may
be removed on warmer days.
The suit shown in the sketch was
made of lightweight wooden material in

Catarrh.


Even the nostrums that were formerly
marketed to the Simple Simons and
Dumb Doras of this free country as
"catarrh cures" have passed into OBJ
livion except in a few isolated spots
where the booze guzzlers get nothing
else to drink. have an odd hobby.
1 collect halftone portraits Of testi-
monial writer's. / haven't come across
one of a plain ''catarrh" victim now for
several years.
No doubt some folks still have what
they complacently call "catarrh"-and
any quack will earnestly acquiesce in
that If the sucker will only make a
small down payment for course of
treatment But the regular medical
profession, am happy to announce,
now definitely rejects "catarrh" as an
entity. We are more reSourceful than
we were 20 years ago in diagnosis.
Twenty years ago only few nose and
throat specialists knew what sinusitis
was-in fact, a good many nose and
throat specialists were still doing a
brisk business on the catarrh basis,
though most of them could recognize
at least suppurating maxillary and
frontal sinus cases when there was ex-
ternal swelling.
The human skull is not solid ivory, as
one might reasonably assume. It is
more like Swiss cheese. Most Of us
have 8 or 10 air holes or sets of air
spaces in the skull-spaces lined with
mucous membrane and normally COM
municating with the outer air. These
spaces are known as sinuses, or cells, or
antra, the pair in the upper jawbone
being known as maxillary sinuses, or
antra of Highmore. The pair in the
frontal bone under the brows are
frontal sinuses More deeply situated
in the roof of the nasal cavity are the
ethmoid, and still farther back in the
base of the skull are the sphenoid
sinuses. Then there Is a group of such
air cells in the mastoid bone behind
the ear, and these communicate with
the middle ear cavity.
The purpose Of all these spaces In the
skull is a question for conjecture. If
they were closed spaces we might as
sumo they give hghtness, strength and
perhaps resonance to the skull. But
why do they connect with the open air?
The only reason I can conceive Is just
so the patient will know he has head
like Swiss cheese when any sinus

Carolus Linnaeus, Sweden's famous
botanist, who took the name Of Carl
Won Lime when a patent of nobility
was conferred upon him because of the
importance of his achievements, was a
| great lover Of animals.
The man who really laid the founda-
| ton OF modern systematic botany and
who first established the law by which
| plants are classified in genera and
species had all sorts Of odd pets.
At his estate, Hammarby, which he
acquired through the prosperity that
came to him along with fame, he kept
a monkey which had been a gift from
the Queen Of Sweden, q weasel which
went around with little tinkling bell
attached to It's neck, voluble parrot
and q number of crickets. The last
mentioned he acquired so that they
might sing him to sleep at night.
A prime favorite of Llnnaeus was
his dog, Pompey, who accompanied him
| to church. much to the disgust Of the
parson, who thought this extremely un-
dignif1ed, particularly as Pompey some
times came by himself If his master
was detained at home.
| Pompey was good deal like hi:
master. Linnaeus deteSted long ser.
mons and so did the dog. If the par.
sons address passed an hour In length
the worthy pair would walk out Of the
church.
Evidently Linnaeus was very human

phenomena, surely he should wear the
