Dear Miss Leeds: read your articles
every day and take interest in them
as they sound very sensible and you
never contradict yourself.
In your articles you mention so much
about the use Of q good liquid skin
tonic. VIII you please explain more
about that and advise the formula for
good one? What is the special bene-
At Of 1t over good cream? o. T.
Answer-A skin tonic Is Just what
its name implies tonic to the skin.
It is used after the skin has been
thoroughly cleansed with warm water
and soap or cold cream or both. Its
purpose is to gently close the pores
which have been opened in the
cleansing process, and its constant cor
rect use will aid greatly in keeping the
skin fine in texture.
A skin toRic usually causes the skin
to tingle just bit. This Is good
thing, for the skin usually needs some
thing of this sort to keep it from be-
coming sluggish. But one must choose
the tonic carefully; while it Is good
must not be stimulated to the extent
that 1t becomes red and blotchy. The
woman with a dry skin must be espe-
cially careful in this regard. but the
market affords many excellent skin
tonics from the extremely mild to those
which are more drastic and thus more
suited to an oily complexion. II you
wish to make your own, you will find
the following excellent for q dry skin
Orange flower water, ounces; boric
acid, / dram; glycerin, 8 drains: rose
water, 2 ounces. When using. allow 1t

cook. And as long as that attitude
lasts even girls who like to cook and
sweep and dust are not going to earn
their living that way.
There are occasional riding-teachers
teachers in girls camps, playground
workers, mattresses. Once in q while a
girl works in florist shop. know
one who gets $3.50 q week arranging
flowers. know two women chauffeurs
and there Is q woman who travels
about In q small car selling under
wear.
Trained nursing is perhaps the most
satisfactory job for girl with lot
Of physical energy.
As for the rest Of the girls who can't
do these particular jobs, they have to
get what exercise they can on Saturday
afternoon and Sunday, and in the eve
nings they can dance.
There isn't any better exercise IN
| the world than dancing, especially II
you can do it where the air Is pretty
good. Setting up exercises are useless
They are boresome and dull, and nc
things which bore you do you any
good.
I wonder why more girls in offices
don't organize little classes If folk and
Greek dancing - the sort Of dancing
which uses an the muscles, and Is really
lot of fun.
Girls having problems in connection
with their work may write to Miss
Woodward, in care of this paper, for
her personal advice.

apples are recommended. Arrange
these ingredients in layers in buttered
sweet potato slices. Combine the fol-
lowing ingredients: One-fourth cupful
melted butter mixed with three table,
spoonfuls brown sugar, one-haf tea

cinnamon and one egg, well beaten.
Over this pour one and o half cupfuls

Pour over the potato and apple slices.
Sprinkle lightly with fine bread crumbs

hour or until the apples and potatoes
are tender when pierced with q fork.
Serve as q vegetable. The dish Is eSpe-
cially good with roast pork.
Note: If apples are tart use more
sugar. Nutmeg can be used instead OF
cinnamon If preferred, or the spice can
be omitted entirely. For richer dish
increase the amount Of butter.
Apple compete differs from apple
sauce In having the pieces preserve
their shape. The simplest compete Is
made from quartered apples boiled in
hot sirup. Use little water and sugar
according to the kind of apples whether
sweet or tart, the latter lose their shape
quicker than the former. The sirup
will not completely cover the pieces OF
apple but they will steam in closely
covered saucepan. Pierce the apples
after 10 minutes and if soft they are
done. Remove and pour into jar and
put on the top or serve hot.
Novelty compete is made by cutting
the apples in slices and cutting eacn
slice with a small fancy cutter. Or use
the potato ball cutter and scoop out
wee balls from peeled apples. Then

apples can be used for apple sauce or

Ginger apple compete Is made by
putting q bit of ginger root into the
sirup. For cinnamon apple compete

served instead of apple sauce. Spiceo

Everyday Psychology
Social -Mindedness
By DIR. JESSE W. sPRowLs.

It used to be said that a social
minded person was one who could with
great exactness figure out what the
group thought. There's a great deal to
be said for this theory.
For one thing, those who have this
social sense are natural politicians
They know not only how to get the
votes, but how to represent the group
for which they function as a sort OF
common mental denominator. Perhaps
you have noticed that it's a poor politi-
cal speech that attempts to tell the
group something it does not already
know. An off1ce-seeker makes a bic
mistake, socially speaking, If he ap-
pears to be wiser than t'A average man
he would like to repreSef :.
In recent years various social phi
losophers have proposed some addi.
tiona1 information about social-minded.
ness.
This new idea is focused upon the
weaknesses Of individuals. Probably
Charles Darwin started 1t. He noticed
that only the weak animals run ir
herds, packs, f1ocks and hordes.
The historians took 1t up, and discov-
cred that the weaker societies always
had the greater number of Sentinels or
guard.
The Lawmakers also feel the same
way. They are just beginning tc see
that every law Is an admission that
many people are in need Of a CORE
spending restraint.
Social-mindednesS means a sense OF
the frailties of men and knowledge of
how to prevent these frailties from
doing violence to the group.

BY J. r. GLASS.

Tradition tells all sorts Of wonderful
things of the adventurous childhood Of
Oliver Cromwell. There is q story that
in 1904 the Duke Of York, later to be
Charles I, was taken to Hinchinbrook,
the estate of divers grandfather, where
the youngsters Oliver, S, and Charles, 4,
Quarreled and fought, with Oliver pro-
phetically victorious.
Another tradition has 1t that on an
other occasion q pet monkey belonging
to the grandfather seized the infant
Oliver and carried him to the roof, but
miraculously brought him down again.
Still another has it that he came very
near being drowned, only being saved
by the Intervention Of curate, who in
later days announced he very much
regretted the rescue And there are
numerous accounts of his adventures in
robbing apple orchards and dove houses.
Most interesting Of all, however, are
the tales Of his nightly visions and pro-
phetic omens. For instance, there was
the story of the festival at the Hunting
don Grammar School. The pupils act
ed fantastic allegorical comedy called
"Idngua," In which the characters rep
resented the tongue and the flve senses.
Oliver is said to have played the part
Of Touch, chiefly because he pleaded
hard for 1t. His anxiety, 1t was said,
was due to the fact that he was attract
ed by q scene In which Touch, STUN
bling over q crown and scepter, puts the
crown on his head and recites:
'Methinks I hear my noble parasites
Styling me Caesar or great Alexander" I"
In later years this incident was re-
lated as being prophetic Of the boys
eventual career. But while the story
may have been true, 1t Is difncult to
classify the incident IS prophetic.
Probably all the other boys in the school
would have preferred that same role.
Another incident seems to be pretty
well authenticated. And 1t Is the more
credible for the reason that Cromwell,
despite his stern and indomitable hard
headedness, had good deal Of the
mystic in him.
According to the Rev. Mark Noble,
Oliver announced one morning that dur
ing the night gigantic figure had come
and opened the curtains of his bed and
told him that he should be the greatest
person in the kingdom. This figure did
not, however, tell him he would be
king.
His father, Robert Cromwell, strongly
reproved him for his folly. It was
downright wicked of Oliver to make
such assertions, he said. DR.. Beard, q
clergyman of moderate Puritanic lean
ings, who presided over the Huntingdon

Cold Weather Diets.

You should never, never allow too
much acid to get into any sort Of re-
duction diet. Winter or Summer, acid
Is bad for the system in too large guam
titles. Nor should you in the cold
weather eat too much cold food-so II
you are reducing you'll not want too
snany salads nor too many things al
ready chilled from the Ice box.
I'd suggest that you make up your
reducing diet principals 1fofn very hot,
thin soups, such as clam broth, tomato
fbroth, beef tea, conSofntlae or chicken
soup with the fat SKINNED on. For
your main meal of the day you should
have a lamb chop, o mutton chop, a
. slice Of rare lean beef or else some
chicken. You can have roast lamb or
mutton, too, and you can have liver,
only not fried with bacon.
Then for vegetables, almost anything
except potatoes and beans. Which ever
you have, be sure 1t Is hot. Food IN
itself is heat, as you know. You can
even feel warmer and more energetic
after eating a bar of milk chocolate
while taking a walk in cold, snowy air.
Food is energy, and energy Is bodily
heat, and milk chocolate has q great
deal Of food value.
But, aside from food. you can give
your body lot of heat by such non
3attening things as hot tea, hot water,
hot broths. Drink lots of hot weak tea
and hot coffee, but take your coffee

Get Your Christmas Cards

The Lacey girls had established q
reputation for having original and diff
ferent Christmas cards and Christmas

creasingly difhcult for them to think up
new ideas. They were in despair over
the Christmas cards to be sent this

They took their troubles to their

and omit them in the Winter in favor
of hot cooked vegetables. Even stewed
fruit is good hot.
Fat women have too much stored-up
heat in their bodies-too much flesh.
But a reduction diet does not supply
anything like the ordinary amount Of
heat; therefore I suggest you acquire
heat by having the foods themselves as
hot as possible. Tea, coffee and broth
are stimulating and heating without
being fattening.

Well Protected Hands.
You must keep your hands looking
nice. Otherwise-well, otherwise you
lose about q third Of your good looks
Remember that when you are around
town, in shops, at tea parties, theaters,
or any place where you have on q hat
and a coat, the only parts Of you your
self by which your looks can be judged
are face and hands. For your hair Is
covered by hat, which can be as
a matter of a good corset and we'll fit-
ting, becoming clothes. These days ale
most every one has good legs, because
not mitch of them show!
But there Is no Disgusting hands
The face can be made up, and hats can
have at least a little brim but hands
are hands, and there Is little disguise
that can be used.
SO protect them. If you are lucky

you must use around plumbing. And
do any other odd job which requires
soaking the hands-stains on paint. or

to soak and getting of the worst

In fact, I think If you smear your

P. r. Hin regard to your question
about the reducing qualities Of epson
salts, I must tell you that there Is no
mere bath which can do much toward
reducing ones excess weight. ANY
bath which heats the body thoroughly
and thus induces free perspiration, such
as steam bath, has some tendency
toward reduction of weight when prac-
ticed regularly. The salts also have q
slightly astringent effect on the skin
and this is another reason they have
been considered reducing. But after
all, the only way to replace fiabby,
fat tissue with firm, healthy and supple
muscles is through systematic exercise
and careful dieting. Perhaps you
would like copy of my leaflet on how
to lose weight. I shall be very glad
to send it to you at once II you win
write for it. With your request, please
remember to inclose the stamped, self

Sale of Stevenson Property on
State Street. Revives Talk of p. o.
The State Street property of the
late Mrs. Sallie G. Stevenson, who
died in November, was sold at
public auction on Wednesday, the
highest bid being $14,001. The
bidder was j. A Downes, a mem
Der of Dover's City Council, resi-
dent in the adjoining property.
The dwelling which has been the
Stevenson home for over so years
is located on South State Street
between Loockerman Street and
Dover Green. With the sale of
this valuable piece of property
some agitation has been started
that the location would make a
suitable site for Dover's proposed
new postoffice, also for City
Municipal building. The city now
has rented quarters in two or
three places where if the Steven
son property could be remodeled,
it would provide sufficient room
for the various City offices. The
Stevenson property has a frontage
of over 20 feet and runs back to
an alley fully $50 feet.
