MILADY BEAUTIFUL
BY LOIS LEEDS.

smoothing out fine lines under thu eyes
or near the mouth.
Today we are concerned with another
beauty pack equally simple. It n the
honey pack, and those who have ever
used Il win testify to is effectiveness.
When the skin ID irritated perhaps by
exposure TO cold or to the SUN or by
some sudden change In weather condi-
tons or climate the honey pack viii do
wonders toward restoring softneSS ana
beauty TO the skin. It IL also o very nnc
cleanser and Il especially good for .
delicate skin which may feel the need
OF facial treatment. but for which
most OF them are too harsh.
TO use the honey pack proceed 90 In
any facial, first wrapping a towel around
the hair 50 that II WIN be protected.
Then coat the face generously with
good cleansing cream. Massage the
cream well into the skin and then, TO
make sure that the cleansing process
VIII so TO pore depth q steanl1ng towel
may be applied over the cream. Then
remove the cream with o warm wet
towel. In most cases IL Is advisable TO
apply o second coating Of the cream.
Use the same kind unless the skin Is
tanned or freckled when the second
coating might be q lemon cream or any
preferred mild bleaching agent. Mas
sage into the skin, steam and remove
as before.
Next use a tissue cream, massaging
and patting 1t gently into the entire
face and neck, paying particular atten-
ton to the parts where wrinkles are be-
ginning to appear. Remove excess cream
with q soft piece of tissue and after
ward pat the face with q piece Of cot
ton saturated with q mild aStringent
such as witchhazel
These are the preliminary steps in
any facial and now you are ready for
the honey. Use about an ounce of clear
strained honey and apply 1t to the skin
with light patting motions of the I'M
gers. Use no vigorous motions in its
application-merely patting gently and
also executing a soft gliding movement
Of the fingers. Leave the honey on the
face and keep applying more until ap-
proximately an ounce has been used. It
should be left on from IS minutes to
a half hour and it is surprising how
much it will stimulate and cleanse
the skin. Remove with q face cloth
wet with tepid water. After all has been
removed close the pores by laying O
cold wet towel over the face. Finish
BY rubbing with piece Of ice wrapped
In q soft cloth.

Your Baby and Mine
By MYRTLE MEYER ELDRED.

When there is illness about it is
human nature to want to do some-
thing about 1t. In this doing" the
mother Is aided by every one within
hearing Of the household. The readi-
ness with which amateurs step in and
diagnose and advise for sickness is
almost alarming.
One has only to read my daily mail
to understand how much erroneous In
formation Is passed around. The
young mother Is the particular target
for vast quantities of advice and In
formation about children. Almost all
of this information 70 false, not because
the donors aim to tell untruths or to
pass on incorrect information, but be.
cause mothers are so gullible that any
one has only to make Q statement,
however absurd, In a very convincing
way and they swallow 1t whole.
In the matter Of dosing for illnesses
the veriest tyro never hesitates for q
moment. Stomach aches? MY dear,
Just give him q good dose Of castor oil
and he'll be well tomorrow. I always
do that with my children" If by
morning the hapless victim of stomach
pains Is in the hospital with an acute
attack of appendicitis, who blaYnes the
advisor? Certainly not the mother.
Colds? Colds should be stuffed.
Also rub on some hot camphorated oil,
cover his chest with flannel, give him q
good physic, and let him sniff up some
medicinal OIL" says the amateur doc
tor. Sometimes the aftermath Of this
forcible "snifnng up" Is serious in the
extreme. Shining up, when ones nasal
passages are already fun OF bacteria,
Is quite as effective a way as one could
devise to force the bacteria into the
middle ear and perhaps eventually
into the mastoids. Does any one
blame the advisor?
The more q person knows the more
INSTANTLY he makes definite statements
about anything. Not so the person with
o smAttering Of knowledge; she 10 un.
restrained IN imparting 1t. Why aren't
mothers courageous enough to refuse
any advice about home dosing? It Is
far harder, admit, but more intelligent
TO rigidly refuse to use medicines until
1t Is certain exactly for what they are
TO be used.

Scarfs and Vogue for Colors


The short Ascot scarf worn under the
GOAT collar Is an important Autumn
fashion which win grow increasingly
important as the season advances. with
your rather formal afternoon suit COL
Jared with Persian lamb, ermine, mink
or any OF the finer furS, you will prob
ably choose to wear q scarf Of chiffon
or soft silk that may be worn tied at
the side 70 give cowl effect, but with
Jour rougher wooden coat, whether It
Is provided with a fur collar or not,
you viii choose one of the short oblong
ecarfs that can be worn Ascot fashion.
Some Of these scarfs are of light
weight wool to harmonize with the coat.
Others are Of heavy silk crepe. The
silk ones are often made in tubular
3aShion 50 that there is double thick
ness Of the silk. The tube Is then
pressed out and drawn around the neck
with the conventional croSS-over Ascot
arrangement at the front. Always the
ends of the scarf are tucked ia ct the
'front.' of the coat or suit.
There is just space left to say some
thing about the new vogue for colors,
Of which we shall all hear q great deal
more within the next few weeks. No
less influential fashion leader than
Yionnet Of Paris has shown her ap-
prevail Of the revival of colors by the
entire absence of black from her most
recent collection. She has substituted
blues of various tones for the more
eomber hueS and sometimes uses rasp-
berry Chanel favorS dark shade Of
brick red Regny goes in for q bright
pimento tone, while Martial ct Armand
Endorses tangerine. OF course, black
will continue to be smart despite Won
nets venture, but the woman who finds
brighter colors more becoming may look
forward with pleasure to an increasing
interest in rich, bright color as Winter
advances.

FOOD PROBLEMS
Cook Can Help Doctor.
by SALLY MONROE.

After the doctor goes the fight is
emily begun. Any doctor will admit
that. The comfort and cure Of the
patient depend on nursing so largely
that doctors are usually quite humble
A their estimation Of their own i'm.
portance.
The right sort Of food means much
81 the eventual recovery Of anybody
chat 30 III. The doctor ought to give
very explicit directions to the home
nurse on the kind Of food his patient
may have. And the home cook should
follow those directions very carefully.
Liquid diet usually means clear lamb
or chicken broth, milk in various pre-
ecribed forms, orange juice. The doc
tor should tell you just what sorts Of
broth. Sometimes clam broth is in
cluded In the sick persons liquid diet.
Don't give cream soups unless they
are specifically mentioned. Sometimes
the thickening Of cream soups Is not
permitted. If they are allowed, be sure
to make them so that they are smooth
and not thick enough to become pasty
as they lie In the plate.
Soup In O cup Is usually easier for
the invalid to manage than soup In O
plate. It keeps hot longer, too, and that
8 another reason in its favor.

r UNUSUAL things in breakfast breat

II UNUSUAL things in breakfast bread
- are always worth having. They
shouldn't be too difficult to make. They
should be unusual enough to tempt the
appetite and provide a welcome change
in the most rnonotonous meal OF the
day.
Robbers dens, or popovers, are usual
enough. But put robber in each den
and you have something unusual. The
robber Is a prllne. Here IL the way to
do it:
Make the popovers by mixing to-
gether two cups Of milk and unbeaten
eggs and then pouring it on two cups
Of flour that have been sifted with a
teaspoon or less of salt. Beat thorough

tablespoons Of soft butter. Sprinkle
with half cup Of sugar and four tea
spoons Of cinnamon and two table
spoons Of currants. Roll up and cut in
inch-and-a-hah lengths. Bake for IS

Custard corn cake Is very good and
unusual Here Is the way to make It:

ing powder. Then stir in one egg that

Household Methods
~ BETSY cALLlsTKR.

To clean ostrich feathers, cover
them with q paste made Of pipe clay
and water and rub them gently. Dry
thoroughly and when quite dry rub and
Ghake of the powder.
To clean suede gloves, rub them with
Q paste made from cornmeal and gaSo-
Mne. This cleans the dirt from all
wrinkles and creases.
To remove spots from WOODEN clothes,
wipe of with water in which as much
borax as it will hold has been dis
solved.
To remove paint spots from smooth
surfaces, rub of with ammonia.
To remove white spots from furni-
ture. rub of with ammonia. However,
have ready a cloth wrung out of cold
water and with this wipe of the surface
ON which the ammonia has been used.
To clean Oriental rugs, rub them with
O lather Of white soap, rub as much Of
It OF as possible, then rinse with cloths
dipped In clear, cool water and then
dry thoroughly. The best way Is 10
spread papers on q floor in an unused
room and let the rugs dry fiat.
To clean screens, brush them. This
frees them from dust and from fine
particles Of rust that form on the
wires If there is much evidence of rust
they should be painted after they are
cleaned. Lay them on newspapers for
painting them as of course, must paint
dr1ps through the interstices In the
