Fashions of Today
BY MARIE SHALMAR.

Sleeve fashions are decidedly varied.
And while none of the new more elab-
crate sleeves Is extreme in the sense
that sleeves sometimes become. we have
a good many types to choose from.
One may, of course, wear sleeves that
are quite simple and straight. AS yet
dress does not look old fashioned
without ornate arm covering. One may
wear sleeves that flare very slightly
from the shoulder to the wrist, ending
with a fairly wide opening for the
hands. However, in the most recent
sleeves of this description the Slightly
faring sleeve ends a few inches above
the wrist and there is close-fitting
cuff beneath.
A type of sleeve that appears more
often on formal afternoon dresses than
on dresses we choose for daytime wear
shows a decided fullnesS above the ell
bow-a puff that increases from the
shoulder down to the elbow, with a
straight fairly close lower section from
the wrist to the puff. Sometimes this
straight section extends an inch or so
above the bend Of the elbow and some
times it extends not quite to the elbow
so that the puff is at its widest Just
over the elbow

Browns Boy, who until this morning
never had heard the bugle call of an
IF I were another Elk and heard
that challenge I would want to be
pretty sure of myself before answered
it," thought he.
Evidently the unseen stranger was
sure of himself, for he was drawing
nearer and his replies to the bugled
challenge were just as eager, just as
confident, just as threatening There
was increasing anger now in both chal-
1enge and reply. 1t was as If Bugler
was saying:
This is my mountain and I dare
any one to deny i'll"
Anyway, this is the way it sounded
to Farmer Browns Boy and the reply
sounded like:
st deny it. 1t is my mountain. as
will soon show you. You'd better go
while the going is good, for my strength
is great and my antlers are sharp and
what want take. You are a boaster,
but your Boosting does not scare me.
You may be big, but am bigger. You
may be strong, but am stronger. If a
fight is what you want fight you shall
have, for fear no one and nothing"
A slight movement among the trees
on one side of the opening caught the
attention of Farmer Browns Boy, and
presently he made out in the shadows
the form of another great animal. an
Elk, but without antlers. He knew at
once that this must be Mrs. Bugler.
She was watching her lord and master
admiringly, but whenever there was a
reply to that defiant challenge she
turned her head that way and listened
with apparent interest.
Farmer Browns Boy knew now that
Bugler's willingness to fight was more
than the desire to use his strength for
the mere love of fighting. He was
ready to fight for his own. There was
jealousy, jealous anger to spur him on.
He was working himself into a rage by
this time He paved the ground. He
shook his head and ratified his great
antlers against the tree stub on which
he had polished them. He walked over
to the edge of the woods and threshed
the bushes with them.
And in the midst of this another
great bull Elk stepped out into the
opening, from the far side. He had
come to accept the challenge.

Everyday Psychology
Cheating in School.
By DIR. JESSE W. sPRowLs.

Now that school days are on with a
rush, it may not be out Of place to call
attention to something that has as yet
not leaked far beyond scientific circles.
Careful studies of cheating on the
part of school children have been made.
What do they show? That school chill
dren of all ages indulge in 1t. More
than one would imagine. That Is, when
a fairly reasonable opportunity for
cheating is presented.
The writer has no philosophy about
the findings, except the possible one
that cheating on the part of school
children is often justif1able. The temp
tation is strong. Our schools are no
toriously mechanistic! Mass education
favors taking advantage of the breaks. "
The impulse to get there" seems to be
encouraged from the home on.
Facts are one thing. Ethics another.
Better stick to the meaning Of facts.
From the psychological point Of view,
the facts of cheating on the part of
school children should not be taken
very seriously. Human nature is by
no means an ethical perfection. Iso-
lated cases of perfection may represent
ideals, but averages never.
The big fact about human nature Is
this: 1t is dynamic. 1t strives for
achievement. and life IS, after all, a
struggle against competition. This de-
mands versatility. Versatility often

cooking it acquired q delicate brown
and q savory coating, rich and tasty.
The water in which the chicken was
steamed formed the basis for a sauce
like gravy, in which the ontIn pieces
were allowed to remain. The fat from
the chicken enriched the gravy, to which
was added a little cream.
The chicken was served like fried
chicken on a platter garnished with
crisp parsley. The rich cream gravy
was passed in its boat. With the
chicken was served mashed potatoes
beaten until light as feathers, new but
tered beets and fresh string beans.
Picked watermelon rind took the place
of the more usual cranberry sauce. A
cucumber peeled and thinly sliced and
kept whole was passed for each person
to dress with vinagrette dressing OF
his own making from the ingredients

Next morning the chicken liver. cut
in pieces and fried with bacon, was
served around a center OF scrambled

Challenge Is Accepted.
When rings a challenge full and clear
The coward turns and runs in fear.
-Bugler the Elk

1t seemed to Farmer Browns Boy
that never in his life had he seen such
a splendid sight as Bugler the Elk
standing in little opening on a high
shoulder of the mountain bugling a
challenge to all the Great World. He
was magnificent. He was in splendid
condition and knew it. He was proud
of his strength, proud of the great
fighting weapons, his antlers, eager to
prove his might and courage. 1t showed
in the way he stood and it rang in his
bugled challenge. Now and then he
paved the ground with an impatient
hoof. He wanted all the Great World
to know that he was lord of the noun
tain, or felt that he was.
Farmer Browns Boy was inclined to
agree with him, but there was at least
one other who was not, for suddenly
there sounded from ridge not far
away another bugle call, and this one
was equally clear, deep and challeng-
ing. The heart of Farmer Browns Boy

Bugler paved the ground in growing

Dark Circles Under Eyes.

Dear Miss Leeds: Could you please
tell me the simplest way to get rid Of
dark circles under. my eyes? M. S.
Answer--In the first place try to find
out what may be causing these circles
and then try to remove the cause. If
you keep late hours or are troubled
with nervousness or constipation, dark
circles are a natural result. So look
first to your general health, your diet
and your rest and after that come local
treatments. These are very effective If
one Is in good health.
At bedtime, after cleansing the face,
pat on little skin food or tissue cream.
Cocoa butter or lanolin will do nicely
for this. Mix four drops Of peroxide
with one teaSpoonful of the cream, pat
the cream gently around the eyes and
also on the lids. Leave a little on
overnight. Next morning, after washing
the face with warm water and mild soap,
rinse In tepid water and finally with
cold. Dry and pat on a little of the
following, lotion, allowing it to remain
on the skin: Two ounces milk of al
monds, 80 grains powdered alum, 6
ounces rosewater. Shake well. Apply
with absorbent cotton. LOIS LEEDS.
