Household Methods
BY BETSY CALLIsTER.

The chief qualification of the Amer
lean hors d'oeuvre is that it should be
a delectable morsel or concoction of
morsels designed to whet the appetite for
what is to follow, and many women now
plan some such appetizer" as the first
course of dinner instead of the conven-
tional soup which so often takes the
edge of the appetite.
In France, am told, horS d'oeuvreS
are often served with quite q different
intention and provincial hotel keepers
and boarding house proprietors go to
considerable pains to prepare appetizers
that will dull rather than sharpen the
appetite Of the hungry tourist, so that
by the time he comes to the roast course
he will have little desire or need for q
generous portion. Meat for roasting or
broiling is high priced in France and
cooks and housewives are notably fru-
gal. To be able to cut down the meat
blu without bringing dissatisfaction is
an art worth cultivating. And so hors
doeuvres are served in a take-them- or
sort of fashion, and the I'M
wary, finding them unexpectedly deli
cious, feels that he has possibly taken
more than his share.
In this country I know that bread
and butter, or rolls and butter, are
sometimes served in this same way.

Toning Flabby Skin.

As the years begin to mount many o
woman is dismayed to see how the
muscles of her chin and cheeks are be-
ginning to sag. Cheeks that were firm
and lovely in contour droop downward
in rather loose folds, giving an old, hag-
gard look to what was once a lovely
countenance. The smooth, firm chin
line also gradually disappears, leaving
a baggy chin, which is the horror of
every woman who would look her best.
Well what shall we do about It?
Merely try to accept 1t as gracefully as
possible, realizing that one cannot re-
main young always? To certain eX-
tent, perhaps, but every one knows of
women far along in years who have
somehow managed to retain cheeks and
chin which are youthful in contour. In
stead OF accepting that which Is unde-
Sirable 1t is far better to put forth a
real effort to better conditions.
The first step in avoiding or getting
rid Of the downward sag in cheeks Is an
internal one. Any local treatment is
pure waste Of time unless one first Of all
takes the right mental attitude toward
life in general. She who persists in
worrying and being pessimistic toward
things as they are cannot avoid droop-
ing countenance, no matter how much
time and money she may spend on local
treatments. It cannot be emphasized
too often that the beauty of maturity
must come first Of all from q beautiful
mind and spirit. Time is sure to leave
on ones face lines which all point up
ward, showing happiness and serenity,
or the opposite-lineS which droop and
indicate too plainly that gloomy spirit
is back Of them.
After making sure that the mental at
titude Is what 1t should be, it is time for
creams, aStrtngents and correct facial
treatments. These, used regularly, can
do wonders. A daily facial treatment
for the woman whose facial muscles are
beginning TO sag should include a gentle
massage along three lines-flrst, upward
from under the angle of the jaw to the
temples; second, from the corner Of the
mouth obliquely upward to a point
about the ear, below the hairline, and,
third, from the nostrl up around the

crepe de chine and o wide variety of
firm cotton materials are all used for
cothes Of the sports genre as seen at
the Winter resorts. And nowadays this
genre Of dress Includes many simple,
wearable derSses, suits, blouses and
separate skirts that are just as appro-

for wear home as they are for the
country club. There are lightweight
jerseys Of tweed-like appearance and

Teach Children to Spend.

The boy and girl who begin early
to buy things for themselves learn
early to be economical and independent.
Too many parents start the wrong
way round. They selflshly "give" the
children a little money and then re.
quire them to keep 1t put away.
such a policy is neither generous
on the part of the parents, nor does
It help the children to form good habits
of thrift.
Children, like adults, should have
the opportunity to learn that money
may be used, either now or in the
future--but only once. Unless they
have the privilege OF planning some
expenditures in the present, they will
not naturally develop much enthusiasm
for that experience at some later date.
In other words, a child can best. learn
to save money Tor future spending If
one OF his past experiences help him
to picture the joys of spending.
1t is useless to talk to children about
the ideal" Of saving. In the first place,
saving Is not ideal. It Is lust an
unpleasant precaution against future
needs, which, they must learn, is q
necessary evil.
AS long as q child thinks Of saving
as mothers and fathers plan, and that
every nickel which goes for candy is
opposed by all the rest of the family
but himself, instead Of developing the
good habit Of saving, he develops the
bad habits Of deceitfulness and whining.
Every child should have an allow
ance, or q way to earn money, and
this allowance should cover all the
items OF his own expenses which his
age and development will warrant.
