MILADY BEAUTIFUL
BY LOIS LEEDS.

The problem Of how to make o slen.
der oval face seem fuller and more
youthful evidently troubles many of my
readers, so today I am giving few
pointers on solving this beauty question.
In the first place, q long face should
not be allowed to become too thin,
especially If the cheekbones are high.
Sometimes the first step toward irnprov-
ing such face is to build up ones
of weight sooner than ones figure-a
fact to be remembered by those who
are trying to reduce.
The couture for slender face should
be rather nat on top, though It may be
waved. Loose ringlets about the brow
and cheeks soften sharp, thin features,
but the hair should not be allowed to
fall forward on the cheeks. It Is O good
plan to show at least one ear. IS that
gives more breadth to the face. A be-
coming couture for this type may be
made without part. Brush the haiI
straight back from the forehead, leav.
ing long bangs to hang down almost II
the eyebrows. Wave the hair from side
to side and curl the bangs also. HaU
the section of hair above and in from
of the ears cut like a long bob ane
wave 1t separately from the rest of thu
hair with ends turned up in ringlets
and spread out fanlike on the sides Of
the head. Let both ear lobes peep our
from beneath the curls.
When bangs are unbecoming, q Low
side part may be arranged and the l1aiI
waved rather low across the forehead

Always Keeping the Mind Alert
BY LYDIA LIE BARON WALKER.

These are silent companions for what
might otherwise be lonely times.
Keep in touch with absent persons II
you would have friends other than
those right about you. Persons who
travel know what a Joy it is to be
greeted by friends on arriving at a dis
tant town, or to be able to get in touch
with them Unexpectedly after arrival
Happiness lies in the way of such
travellers 1t may be that it is the abb
sent friend who will look you up some
day in your home. Correspondence
keeps the pathway open. So converse
with your friends by pen, and while
away otherwise lonesome times.
Books are the companions Of many
touch with distant lands. Biographies
help you to get acquainted with
fine characters and great personages.
You are the companion OF Kings and
Queens, or lords and ladies, when you
read their biographies. You know them
even better than some who meet them
face to face You can cultivate their
friendships and find pleasure in so
doing if you like biographies. They are
interesting reeding.
Cultivate ycur thoughts as you would
beloved friend. These are ever-pres-
ent with you. Learn to guide them
into pleasant by-ways. If they try to
lead you where you do not wish to fol-
low, into sorrowful or depressing re-
membranes or even regrets, use tact
with your own mind just as definitely
as you would when. as hostess, you find
a conversation is setting guests on edge
Turn the topic into pleasant channels
Guests appreciate such a courtesy, when
done with tact, so that they scarcely
realize until afterward that the pleas
ure of the time was due to your
thoughtfulness. Turn your own thoughts
agreeably. and be kind to yourself.

big brush pile where Peter Rabbit had
escaped from Yowler the Bobcat When
he saw that big pile Flip became more
excited than ever, If that were possible.
Who might he not find under that?
He raced ahead OF his master and pres
emily was shifting around the edge Of
the brush.
"You ought to find one Of Peter Rab-
bits relatives under that big pile" cried
Farmer Browns Boy as Flip disappeared
around one end. A moment later he
added: IT guess you did. Hunt him out,
old fellowl Hunt him out"
1t was clear that Flip had found some
one or something. He had barked ex-
citedly before. but that was nothing To
the way he was barking now. The other
barking had been make-believe excite
ment. This was real excitement. Far
mer Browns Boy recognized 1t at once.
He had no doubt at all that Flip had
discovered a Rabbit or a Hare. He was
barking as if his life depended on 1t,
and such excitement as there was in 1t!
Farmer Browns Boy laughed aloud.
Then into F1ip's voice crept new
note His barking sounded even more
excited, If that were possible, but there
was also a note of fear, or so 1t seemed
to Farmer Browns Boy. He began to
run in order to see what 1t was all
about.

stump and every fallen tree and every
bush and every heap of brush along the
way, always hoping he would find some
one he could chase. 1t was sort of
game and Farmer Browns Boy took part
by urging him on, just to see how ex-
cited Flip could get
Hunt him out! That's the boy, hunt
him out" Farmer Browns Boy would
urge as Flip would sniff at little heap
of brush. Then Flip would bark and
run all around that heap Of brush and
try to crawl under it and become as
excited as If some one was hiding In
there, when all the time there was no
one al all.
So at last they came in sight of the

Flip just loves excitement. There is
no doubt about it, he just loves excite
ment. The more excitement the hap
pier Flip is. When there is no real ex-
element Flip pretends and usually sue
ceedS in getting himself excited over
nothing at ALL If he smells Mouse you
would think it was a Bear by the fuss
ne makes over it. 1t is all a part OF
the fun of living.
When Farmer Browns Boy goes for a
walk in the Green Forest to get glimpses
of the people who live there, he leaves
Flip at home, taking Bowser the Hound
If he takes any one. Bowser isn't so
excitable. Furthermore, that wonderful
nose of his is sometimes very useful in
finding out where certain Green Forest
people have been and even where they
are So many a time Flip has diScon-
solately watched Farmer Browns Boy
and Bowser start off for the Green
Forest while he has had to remain at
home.
So you can guess how wild with joy
Flip was one afternoon when his master
took him instead Of BowSer. Flip,
said Farmer Browns Boy, I'm going to
give you some exercise. That is what
am going for myself, just exercise.
Wen take walk in the Green Forest.
Rather, I will / don't believe you could
walk If you tried" Certainly Flip didn't
look at that minute as if he could. He
was racing about this way and that
way, barking as if trying to bark his
head off, while sober old Bowser sat
looking on in disapproval at such lack
of dignity. Bowser may have felt hurt
at being left behind 1t so he was too
proud to show it. Truth to tell, he was
rather glad to stay ct home. He had
had long run after Reddy Fox that
morning and he was tired.
I'm not so young as / used to be, .
sighed Bowser as he lay down on the
doorstep And this was quite true.
Flip raced away ahead of Farmer
Browns Boy, turning to look back every
now and then to make sure his master
was following. He investigated every

Household Methods
BY BETSY CALLISTER.

Did it ever occur to you tat you
1ften spend more time in buy.Hg some
commodity that you need for your
housekeeping enterprise than the total
time taken in making the desired COM
modify? You want some ribbon, let us
say, to match material from which you
intend to make q dress and so inpor-
tant is it that you have the exact
match that you go to four or five stores,
and spend an hour or more of time, In
order to buy ribbon that in the end
does not cost more than 80 or 40 cents.
Or perhaps you want pajama costume
that will be becoming and in good taste
and inexpensive and you actually spend
day in looking for it, though in the
end you get a very inexpensive outfit
costing no more than your time has
been worth. Or perhaps you want
lamp shade to go with a standard that
you already possess. For a. month
every time you go shopping you look
around for just the shade you want un-
til you finally find one that will do adj
mirably. OF course, you keep no record
of the hours and minutes spent in
searching for it, but 1t would surely be
as much time as has been spent in pro-
ducing the lamp shade and the raw
materials from which it was made.
All of which does not go to show that
we spend too much time looking about
for precisely what we want, but that
anything we buy that is precisely what
we want, that is not too dear and that
will give good service, is really worth
a good deal more than the mere price
paid So if your house or apartment Is
furnished quite inexpensively, but still
attractively and practically, you should
not figure its value merely in dollars
spent to buy the furniture and hang
ings the books, pictures, draperies, etc,
but in the thought and time you your
self have spent in selecting these things.

TULSA, Okla, January 5.-Curtail-
ment efforts of oil men, which for many
months have been turned to the phys
ical operations of properties, are with
the new year turning to the reduction
of financial operations.
Having witnessed the most severe
contraction In earnings as the result
OF the establishment of a balanced
condition in the supply and demand of
oil, which has been attained only after
several months of severe proration of
oil runs at the month Of the wells. it
is now a question of reducing operat-
ing expenses to the new condition. Or
dinarily oil men would accept the pres
ent contraction as a temporary one, but
with the opening of the new year they
recognize in the Soundness of the pres
ent situation ample reason for its per-
manence, whether it proves to be so
or not.
Not only have oil men become rec
onciled to the smaller margin of profit
to be obtained from the lower level
OF prices now prevailing, but a new
consideration must be given by those
companies whose inventories, remaining
high, represent the accumulation of q
part of the earnings reported for the
past several years.
Several Of the oil companies operat-
ing in the mid-continent field are mere

in operating costs which they inaug.

FARMERS ARE URGED
TO CHECK ON COSTS
Bookkeeping System Is Advised
by North Carolina State
College Economist.
Blythe Associated Press.

Blythe Associated Press.
RALEIGH, January 5.-Farmers of
North Carolina must go in for book
keeping in a serious way if they are
to prevent heavy losses in their 1891
farm business.
This, in substance, is the advice of
DR.. @. w. Forster head of the de-
partment of agricultural economics at
North Carolina State College, who says
that with the outlook for most farm
products discouraging and every farmer
conscious of the fact that 1881 is going
to be a hard year, particular atten-
ton must be paid TO planning the 1881
farm business and keeping a record of
its ups and downs"
The starting point for any individual
Is to know his present condition, DR.
Forster said.
The farmer who is interested in max
ing the most out Of his resources in
1881 should take Immediately an lnVen-
tory Of his resources" the doctor said.
AN inventory consists Of all the assets,
such as land. buildings, live stock, ma
chinery ana equipment. seed and sup
plies on hand or any other thing used
in the farm business"

RECOVERY IN BOND
PRICES CONTINUES
Market Moves Steadily Up
ward, but Trading Volume
Is Light.
BY r. H. RICHARDSON.

Special Dispatch to The Star
NEW YORK, January 5.-Bonds con-
tinued their recovery today in marked
fashion in all parts of the list, but
volume continued light.
The failure of trading to increase as
the list moves upward has caused con-
siderable speculation in the street. The
explanation, however, came with the
banks at the year end. Virtually all
these institutions reported huge hold
ings OF United States Government
bonds, notes and certificates, and con-
Siderably reduced corporate security
holdings. This was the result of the
rush to achieve hquidity in December
and. according to number of spokes-
men for the banks, will continue to be
the general policy for some time to
come.
Despite the small amount of bank
purchasing, however. the market con-
tinued buoyant. High-grade securities
held unchanged or made fractional
gains. This part of the market Is
now about to z points above its low
OF 1880 and not far below its 1880
high. Gains today were made by Can
adam Pacific As, Northern Pacific As,
American Telephone SIS, Consolidated
Gas IS, Philadelphia Company's SIS, In
land Steel 412s, Pan-American Petroleum
IS and Youngstown Sheet and Tube SIS.
Nickel Plate AIS were firm at a level
IL points above their low of only last
month.
There was every evidence of specula-
tive interest in junior issues, especially
those of the Seaboard Airline, around
which considerable calculation is re-
volving as to how much the senior Sc
curtty holders will get in the reorgani-
zatlon. The IS were unchanged, but
heavily traded today, while the refund
ing As Jumed 8 points Substantial i'm
proyement featured the rest Of the sec
ond grade rail list. Jumps of a point or
more were made by Chicago & Eastern
Illinois IS, st. Paul IS, Erie General
Lien As, Erie SIS, Florida East Coast SIS,
International Great Northern Adjust
mentS, Missouri-Pacific As, Missouri
Pacific 1as and other similar types.
1nduStrials did about as well. with
good gains in Chile Copper SIS, Dodge
Bros. IS, Hudson Coal SIS, International
Hydro-electric IS, Pathe rs and Shell
Union Oil IS. Postal Telegraph SIS re-
covered another points and stand now
Is points above their recent minimum.
Convertible issues fiuctuated with
stocks. The active feature was a gain
OF over points in Philadelphia &
Reading Coal & Iron 6s, which at 80
were IL points above their low. On the
Curb Associated Gas & Electric SIS were
on point, Cities Service SIS dropped
fractionally and Gillette Razor SIS gained
slightly. Van Sweringen per cent
notes were unchanged.
With the exception of Chilean and
Peruvian issues in the South American
group and Serbian Is in the European
list, foreign dollar bonds were strong.
In United Steel Works "a" 6las of 1851
and Berlin IS the gains ran over
points. Bolivian bonds reflected with
small advances the very positive state
ment by the Bolivian government that
1t would support tin prices and that
negotiations had started with signatory
governments to the international agree
ment to fix tin export quotas.
