MILADY BEAUTIFUL
BY LOIS LEEDS.

will do more to keep the body youthful
| and supple than a few extra Wirlks Of
sleep could ever do. Begin with a
stretching exercise which is done while
lying in bed. Still lying on your back,
| double up the left knee on your chest
and clasp your arms around It, pressing
It against your body. Now kick that
leg out straight and repeat the move
ment with the right leg. Next, repeat
with both legs at once. Go through
the exercise several times slowly. Fol-
low this with leg raising, keeping the
knees straight, Now jump out of bed
and do some trunk-tWisting and knee
bending exercises with arm fiinging,
Breathe deeply and evenly.
After the exercises take stimulating
bath, either a cold shower or sponge
bath. For those who cannot stand
the shock of a cold shower in the
morning, the rundown with a stiff
brush and tepid salt water may be sub
stituted. Either type of bath will take
away the feeling of languor so likely
to be present in the morning. A hard
rundown with coarse towel should
follow either kind of bath. Rub until
the body fairly tingles, as the skin
needs to be wakened to activity. Apply
little toilet water to the armpits and
spray a little on the chest also. Dust
helps greatly toward avoiding foot
WEAKNESS.
Wash the face with clear cold water
unless the skin is especially dry, when
cream or oil may be substituted. Then
apply witch-hszel or skin tonic, which
acts as a mild astringent and so closes
the pores and rouseS the cells to activ-
ity. Then apply a powder base and
makeup, keeping in mind the fact that
daytime n. ahe-up is much more difficult
to put on artistically than is evening
makeup, for the light of day isn't near
so f1attering as lamp light.
Next. brush and arrange the hair be-
comingly. Finally face the day with a
cheerful attitude, and If going to busi-
ness, try to walk at least part of the
distance, practicing correct posture, a
free-swinging stride and deep. breath
ing. Such a morning program will do
much toward giving the right outlook
on life and will impart feeling of con-
fidence and strength which is necessary
to poiSe.

A Good Figure.


Try as you will, you can't, perhaps,
have a pretty face. But you can have
a beautiful figure. Yes, you can. 1t
may mean some work, but what does
that matter?
First of all, learn to walk. sit and
stand correctly. Don't look like the
girl in the picture. Correct posture is
all a matter of maitland you might as
we'll acquire good habit as degenerate
into a bad one. Forget what you may
have been told in gymnasium, or IN
books about eXerciSeS-the fiat back,
the stuck out chest-remember only one
small fact. Hold your chest as high as
you comfortably can. The rest follows
naturally.
Try it now! AS you raise your chest
you pull in your abdomen. Your shoul-
ders go back as they should. Most
likely your chin comes up bit, and
the neck straightens itself as the rest
of the spine does Look in your glass
before and after you have taken this
position, and see the improvement.
Doing this, you can't go hollow chested,
you can't droop your chin down so the
line underneath says, you can't bend
your spine and develop rounded Shout
derS. You can't even take that awful
modern misunderstanding sideways
with one hip out and the other not,
like tired old horse who rests him
self on three legs.
AS for correct sitting position,
that's more difficult. If you keep in
mind the high chest, ETC., you are apt
to sit stiff1y erect. as our great grand
mothers were taught But perhaps if
you remember to sit all the way back
In your chair, leaning against its back.
help you. Your best guide is your look
ing glass-watch how you sit and cor
rect your faults.
These are the first steps to a good
figure.

Household Methods
BY BETSY CALLISTER.
Bedding.

This is a good time of the year to
look over your bed pillows. If you have
noticed tiny feathers sitting through
then 1t may be that the seams are rip
ping. If there are any holes or worn
places it Is better not to depend on
patches as the ticking is doubtless
wearing and more holes will soon APP
pear. 1t is better to get new cases for
the pillows at once. These may be
bought ready sewn or you may buy the
ticking by the yard and make the cases
for yourself
1t Is not especially dificult to trans
fer the down from the old ticks to the
new II you go about it in the right way.
Sew up the new ticks all round save for
slit at the top about eight inches in
length. Then rip open the end of the
old pillows exactly the same distance
and taking care not to let the feathers
fly carefully sew the slit Of the new
case to the ripped slit In the old pillow
The sewing should be quite firm.
It is a good plan to choose bright
warm day for this work and to do it
all outdoors, so If a few feathers do
fly they will not have to be swept or
busted up afterward.
Having once made the joining, the
problem is to get the feathers from the
old case to the new. and this is done
by a sort of gentle kneading motion.

BEDTIME STORIES By y. r sSSe1ss

about Mrs. Quack'S nest and how Mrs
Quack was sitting there.
Il don't know of any one who has
an easier time than Mrs. Quack," said
Peter. She has nothing at all to do
but sit there. She certainly has 1t as
easy as any one l know of. Farmer
Browns Boy knows she and Mr.. Quack
are around somewhere and so he puts
corn over in the Smiling Pool. All
Mrs. Quack has to do is to get good
meal of corn whenever she wants it,"
That's all right. Peter" said little
Mrs. Peter, but l don't believe she has
such an easy time of it. She must get
very. very tired of just sitting there
doing nothing And then she must be
anxious all the time"
"Anxious!" exclaimed Peter. "AnX-
ious Why should she be anxiouS?"
We'll. I know l would be in her
place" declared little Mrs. Peter. Sup
pose some enemy comes along. She's
either got to take a chance that that
enemy will not find her or she's got to
leave those precious eggs OF hers. No.
sir, Mrs. Quack isn't having any easy
time of it,
Little Mrs. Peter was quite right. Mrs
Quack was not having an easy time of
1t. She knew that that nest was well
hidden, but she also knew that sharp
eyes and keen noses were constantly
visiting that little swamp and she must
always be on guard. Once Bobby Coon
had passed and it wasn't until he was
over at the Smiling Pool hunting for
frogs that Mrs. Quack dared draw a
,ong breath. The very next night she
heard light footsteps They were very
light indeed. You and I wouldn't have
heard them, but Mrs. Quack heard and
she knew whose footsteps they we're.
"Oh, dear, what shall do?" said
Mrs. Quack to herself. What shall
do? Shall I slip away and leave these
eggs? Or shall 1 take chance and
fectly still. am glad that none of
the Merry Little Breezes are dancing
around. If they were, Reddy Fox might
get my scent"
She drew all her feathers down very
tightly and kept perfectly still. Those
footsteps came nearer and nearer. They
stopped right beside her nest. Perhaps
you can guess how Mrs. Quack felt
then. She could have reached out and
pulled the tail of Reddy Fox. But she
knew she was giving off no scent and
so his wonderful nose would not find
her, unless he should happen to poke
his head in under the skunk cabbage
leaves. Those skunk cabbage leaves
were helping to hide her in more ways
than one. You know they have a scent
very like the scent that Jimmy Skunk
carries. That is why the plant is called
the skunk cabbage. So, even if there
had been just little faint odor of
Duck. the stronger odor of the skunk
cabbage would have killed it.
For perhaps a minute Reddy Fox
stood still there beside Mrs. Quack HI
was looking and listening. 1t seemed
longer than a minute to Mrs. Quack
1t seemed to her that he never would
move on. But at last he did, and once
more she could breathe easily.

Candy APPLES.
By SALLY MONROE.

The trick of dipping small red apples
in sugar candy or toffee and letting
them harden on sticks is a very old
one, and seems to have originated in
England. Most children like this sort
Of CONNECTION and enjoy making it.
To begin with, you will need per-
feet, small red apples Wash them
and into the stem end Of each thrust a
clean, white wood Skewer, which you
Gail buy from your butcher. If this is
impossible, get some soft white wood
and cut OFT your own sticks.
Now prepare the toffee. Melt four
even tablespoonfuls of butter in a clean
saucepan, add quarter pound Of brown
sugar and full tablespoonful of golden
sirup. Melt and when 1t begins to boil
stir steadily. Let cook for few min
utes and then drop little on plate.
If it becomes set, then it is ready for
use. Dip the apples into it one at
time, holding by the end of the stick.
