CANDY AND WEIGHT

CANDY is one of the first things
~ stricken from the diet list of
individuals trying to lose weight,
and yet some women find candy
helpful in reducing. They eat a
piece of candy five or ten minutes
before meal time, for the very
reason that mothers warn their
children not to eat candy within an
hour Of luncheon or dinner. 1t
takes off the keen edge of their ap-
petite and in that way helps them
to get along on very light rations
Some women find the omission of
luncheon the most convenient plan
in reducing weight, and are perfect
ly content to go without food from
breakfast time until late dinner if
they can eat two or three pieces Of
candy during the course of the
day TO stave off the discomfort of
too great hunger.
Under ordinary circumstances the
best time to eat candy is within
one or two hours after mealtime.
Some sort Of candy may be served
after the sweet course at dinner and
dishes of assorted candies are often
offered when coffee is served in the
drawing room after dinner.

THE RIGHT KIND
OF GIRL
BY DOUGLAS MALLOCH

THE right kind of girl doesn't
smoke just because
She thinks she looks ''smart" with
a smoke" in her jaws,
The right kind of girl doesn't dress
like a jade
Because that's the way that the
dresses are made"
The right kind of girl has a mind
of her own;
If a thing isn't nice, then she leaves
it alone.
The world where she lives is in
sort of a whirl,
But it can't change the ways of
the right kind of girl.
The wrong kind of girl has a won
derful time.
She talks about sex and she reads
about crime.
The wrong kind of girl gives the
fellows a thrill,
And enjoys it herself, or she thinks
that she will,
The wrong KIND or girl makes the
universe stare
With the things she will do and the
clothes she will wear.
She might wed a banker, she might
wed an earl,
For the sign says For Sale" on
the wrong kind of girl.
The right kind of girl hasn't any
such beauX;
They're workers and dOerS, the fel-
lows she knows.
The right kind of girl has some
fellows who call,
But it's they that she likes. not their
money at all.
The right kind of girl sees some
fellow depart
With the wrong kind of girl, and
it troubles her heart.
But a man wants a wife who's as
pure as a pearl;
When he wedS one at last it's the
right kind of girl.

Spider Builds Diving Bell

A spider that lives under water
is an air-breathing insect like the
garden variety. 1t can remain un-
der water for many hours at time
and even builds its nest there and
rears its young by means of air
which it collects on the surface,
and stores in a reservoir made of
its silk.
In midwinter, among the pond
weeds, it spins a delicate, fiat web,
an almost invisible sheet. Then it
climbs a plant to the surface, to
collect air. 1t may swim awhile on
its back to entangle air in its thick
hairy coat, and then smartly dive.
The effect is, the air goes with it,
caught by its hair, and between it's
eight legs.

CALIFORNIA; Climate

There are four main factors in
fluencing the climate peculiar to
California. According to Doctor
McAdie. they are as follows: The
movements of the great continental
and oceanic pressure areas, the So
called permanent highs and lows !;
the prevailing drift of the atmos-
phere in the temperate latitudes
from west to east; the proximity
of the Pacific ocean, and the ex-
ceedingly diversified topography of
the country for about 200 miles in
land from the coast.
