Vanity Cabinets for Kitchens

ing the situation with cold water or
powder puff. But there Is no law
against the inconspicuous placing Of a
small vanity case, somewhere in the
Kitchen, mirror, soap. powder puff and
all There 1t is the matter of an
instant to make the needed improve
mentS.
Contents of the kitchen vanity set
may include cleansing tissue for the
face, a bottle of refreshing toilet water,
powder. mirror, nail file, orange-wood
stick and hand lotion. There are
small wall cabinets that can be painted
like the rest OF the kitchen and placed
in a convenient spot where the light
is good. If there is no room for such
a. cabinet, small box preferably with
hinged cover. can be improvised to
serve the purpose.
If there is additional room in the
cabinet it can serve for other than
mere beauty aids. A needle and thread
may be useful at other moments than
when there is call for one in sewing
up the Bird when a stuffed chicken
is to be served. A garter that snaps
when one least expects 1t, or the place
where the apron pocket catches on a
door knob and tears, suggest other needs
for the needle and thread So the
kitchen vanity cabinet can justify It's
existence in variety of ways. A few
common pins and safety pins are not
emiss therein, stuck in tiny envelope,
nor a clean handkerchief to pick up
at the last moment in going TO the
table.

LITTLE BENNY
BY Leg PAPE.

We was eating supper and ma sed to
pop, I had quite a conversation with
old Mr.. Shooster today, and leeving
the question of money quite aside, the
next time old lady Shoostsr breaches
the subjeck OF possible future union
between her little grandfather Mildred
and Gladdises little Willie, she's not
going to meet with anything but dis
courragement from me.
Do you r1een to say the Wedding is
of? pop sed, and ma sed, Its a ques-
ton of hereditty. Any gerl with such
a grandfather, don't care II he has
duzzen banks in his own name, has
queer ideers in her family, and yew-
eenically speaking any such a union
would certeny be the werst sort Of yew-
genics.
Is he Bolshevick? pop sed, and ma
sed, shouldn't be serprised at any
thing undesirable about him. We hap
pened to be riding downtown In the
same trolley car today, and took the
opportunity to make few apparently
meaningless remarks to find out wealth.
or or not he RELY intends to leave
little Mildred fortune in his will when
the suitable time comes. I broke the
ice by remarking, YOU certainly have
lovely little grandfather, Mr..
Shooster. and she's surely lucky to have
q nice rich grandfather like you who
can leave her so well pervided for.
That was a nice meaningless remark,
what did he say? pop sed, and ma sed,
He replied in a cold voice. Madam. any
man who gives any female one doller
Of superfluous money is an ignorant
fool, money is poison to wimmin and
I've always found that poor ones are the
ony ones werth looking at. And with
that he termed a cold shoulder on me
and b.rried himself in his newspaper,
and now old lady Shooster will find
me q def lissener when she rattleS
on with her romantic Ulcers. The ques-
ton Of money has nothing to do with
it, but I'm not going to allow any man
with any such family traits to inflict
his cracked ancestry on my descend
ents, hand me the butter please, ma
sed.

For Feet and Ankles.

As strong, well-formed feet, and
ankles are quite necessary II milady
would enjoy life and also If she wishes
to avoid facial wrinkles. am going to
outline a set OF exercises which will
be beneficial to these parts Of the body.
% The rotary motion is splendid
exercise for ankles which are weak.
Sit erect on a chair and rotate the
foot at the ankle. bringing all the mus
cles into play. Do this first with the
right, then with the left. alternately, in
order to rest the muscles.
(2) Sit on a chair with the feet fiat
on the floor and parallel legs bent at
right angles at knees. Place a marble
beside the left foot about six inches to
the left of the toes. Now reach over
in front of the left foot with the right
foot, pick up the marble with the toes
and place it in the left hand, which
is held outside the left knee. Repeat
the exercise. using left toes to pick
up the marble on the right side and
deposit it in the right hand. This
exercise is especially good for anterior
metatarsalgia. which is sometimes
called "Mortons toe" and is accom-
panied by painful callouses on the ball
of the foot.
49, Stand on tiptoes and stretch up
ward until every muscle of the foot and
ankle responds. i MS Is SOIHeIlIIleS ulll-
cult to do at first. but daily practice
will accomplish wonders with weak
ankles in a few months.
ca Lie on your back on the floor.
Raise the right leg with knee straight
to a vertical position, with the foot
bent down toward the shin and turned
in somewhat. Exhale as you lower leg
to the floor. Inhale as you raise other
leg Repeat alternately.

feet along the floor until they reach

She is about one-half inch long, dressed

skater. Her eyes are rather large. the
antennae long. the hind legs are used
used as we do oars. The legs are rather
hairy and this prevents the skater from
sinking Watch her Every once in a
while she will lift leg and let the
breeze fan off the water.
At the end of Summer the water
strider is grown up, and, with the first
cool weather, will seek Winter quarters
under stones, leaves or at the bottom OF
the pond under large rock.
When the warm Summer days return.
the striders come to the surface in
thousands. The mothers GO about seek
ing q stem or leaf on which to stick an
egg. The eggs are rather large, whitish
and spindle shaped. In little over two
weeks the strider will come from the
blunt end of the egg and not push of
the cap. as many water bugs do. He
will outgrow five coats before reaching
his majority. Along the edges Of the
water many juicy insects may be found
for the taking. 1t is not unusual to see
several dining together in a friendly
fashion on one large insect.
A very interesting water
strider, known by the name of rhem-
atobates rileyi, and rather we'll known,
has been adopted for the seal of the
Entomological Society of Washington,
D. C. This strider may be seen on ca
mails and its habits are like those Of
other skaters. 1t is outlined with long
fine hairs, and. when held up, looks as
if the fore-legs were trimmed In heavy
fringe.
The water-boatman belongs to the
Corixidae family and is known by most
every boy.

reporters of Senate debates says he

The fame of Borah of Idaho as an
orator is known to ALL but one would
hardly describe his voice as powerful.
Jim Watson OF Indiana cuts loose at
times. He has been known to shout
away his voice completely when
worked up.
Brookhart of Iowa also has plenty of

Moses Of New Hampshire is another.
His words come forth at times like
the report Of pistol shot, but when
he presides over the Senate, as he often

are issued in a kind of sing-song

Chanel Of Paris started an interesting
discussion when she announced the fact
that she was not always and at all times
in favor of figured material. Chanel
of course does occasionally use prints,
but she stands out as the exponent Of
plain toned materials.
This Summer prints have not been
quite SO much in favor as thsy were
last Summer and the Summer before.
1t is not so much that women do not
like prints, as that they have been in
trigued by the interesting effects that
may be obtained by plain tones. AS
things stand now, and are likely to
stand for the rest Of the Summer, prints
are at their best in the chiffon evening
dress. There are also interesting, con-
sentative prints in brown and white,
dark blue anc white and sometimes
green and white for daytime wear, but
Cor sports and resort wear generally
honors go to plain tones used alone or
n two-color or three-color combinations.
Some women choose printed dresses in
