Everyday Psychology
By DIR. JESSE W. sPRowLs.
Women Are Different.

OF course, there's no agreement be-
tween men and women on the question
of ways in which they differ. Science
has attempted to study the question,
and here are a few Of the known
differences:
/. Faced with a crisis a woman will
"go to pieces" little more quickly than
a man. In other words, she will "give
up" sooner. She seems to accept fate"
a little more readily.
2. Women are not so likely to try
to convince some one of something.
They hate to argue and persuade.
There's only one exception: The female
is pretty likely to contend for her point
of view on all matters of religion.
3. Women keep diaries rather reg
ularly. Men seldom do. It seems that
a record of past and passing events
carries an element Of support with it.
It's a well recognized principle among
psychologists that the careful note
keeper is haunted by feeling that he
or she may one day be called upon to
substantiate his or her position.
4. Women go in for reading novels
more than men do. Somehow a printed
page seems more authoritative to them
than 1t does to men. Moreover, women
find in their reading more than men do.
For some women a novel amounts al
most to an actual experience. Most
men regard novel as something that
was written for money.

One may buy or make Turkish tow

double, with rings at each end, which
may be held in the hands and rubbed
vigorously across the back and shoulders.
Another good way TO stimulate and
soften q very "pebbly" skin Is to use a
pumice paste. There are commercial
preparations one may buy. but it Is
quite simple to make some at home out
Of the following ingredients:
One ounce boric acid.
Two ounces glycerin.
Eight ounces flne powdered punice
stone.
One dram cornmeal.
One dram Of oil Of bitter almonds.
Dissolve the boric acid in the glyce-
rim, then blend the other substances in
very thoroughly.
Rub the mixture gently on the rough
surface with q circular motion. Be
careful not to bruise the skin by rub
bling too hard or too long. Rinse of
thoroughly with bath spray. and blot
the skin dry. Now pat on some witch
hazel, and If the skin feels dry and

This incident was characteristic of
the time. It must be allowed that
Brummel was very generous, yet his
condescending advice to Sheridan GER
tainly must have been embarrassing to
him.
Brummel's reputation as a wit rested
largely upon his audaciousness. Many
OF the things he said hurt. He suffered
few re6uffS. The most famous was that
administered by Bob Bligh, a cousin of
Lord Darnley and a rough-and- ready
person, capable of the worst violences.
Why Bligh should penetrate the fop-
pish circle at Walters has not been
explained, since he held its powdered
and perfumed gentles in contempt.
Nevertheless, one night he sat at the
macao table, just opposite Brummel.
The stakes were high. Brummel lost
heavily Making jest of his losses,
after dropping a particularly large
stake, the Beau cried cut tragically
Waiter, bring me a fat candlestick
and q pistol"
Bligh regarded him with acute dis
dain. From his coat pockets he calm
~ drew two loaded pistols, which he
laid on the table in front of the Beau.
Mr.. Brummel," he said, ''if you
really desire to end your existence, I
am delighted to accommodate you with
out troubling the waiter"
For once Beau had no ready words.
Like all the rest at the table, he sat
trembling in the presence of those ter
rible pistols.

Bags to Match Evening Dresses
By MARY MARSHALL.

or bead work that win go with any sort
of evening dress. If not, you will find
it very convenient to make one or two
simple, inexpensive evening bags to go
with your various evening dresses.
Some of the very newest bags are
trimmed with ostrich. The foundation
bag is made about inches long, about
inches wide at the top and not more
than inches wide at the bottom. This
foundation should be made of firm,
good quality silk, such as satin or faille.
The silk Is cut in two pieces of the
desired size and sewed up at bottom and
sides. From the same silk or lighter
silk q lining is cut in the same way
and the two are put together so that
rough sides Of the seams do not show.
At the top of the bag should be put
a snapper SO that it will hold the two
sides OF the bag together and a ribbon
should be attached to form wrist strap.
Ostrich trimming by the yard is used
TO finish the bag and is applied in rows
or circular arrangement so as to cover
the silk Of the bag entirely.

cream. Wipe OF the cream afterward.
If the skin is Of the red, oily type, q
camphor wash may be applied instead
Of the cream. Here is q recipe for It:
One-half ounce pulverized camphor.
Nine ounces witch-hazel.
One and one-half ounces Of elder
flower water.
Dissolve the camphor in the witch
hazel, then mix in the other ingredi-
ents. This lotion makes Q good skin
tonic for oily compilations also.
The above treatments may be taken
every other night. After about two
weeks or sooner the roughness Of the
skin will be much leSsened. A soften
ing meal and honey pack may then be
used to give a velvety texture to the
skin. Mix one ounce Of honey and
three ounces of cornmeal with enough
white of egg to make paste. Spread
this on a piece of clean, heavy muslin
or flannel and lay it over the skin that
Is being treated for goose ptmples. This
pack may be left on overnight or used
for shorter period during the day.
Use 1t once a week.

Milady Beautiful
By LOIS LEEDS.
Back and Shoulders.

A beauty blemish that distresses some
Of my readers is rough skin on the
shoulders and back, which is very much
evidence when milady dons her eve
ming frock. The roughness is not due
to ordinary pimples, but to tiny eleva-
tons around the roots of the scarcely
visible. downy hairs that grow all over
the body. Sometimes the condition is
called goose pimples, and its presence
betrays neglect of daily scrubbing and
rubbing of the skin.
AS in the case Of other beauty prob
lens. an ounce of prevention is worth
pound Of cure. The person who takes
daily shower or sponge baths, followed
by a brisk rundown with a coarse
towel, and pays proper attention to diet
and exercise will retain a smooth skin.

NY Neighbor Says:

Cucumber peel has been found
to be very efficacious in Kidding
the house of cockroaches. 1t
should be scattered round the
kitchen in the evening, particu-
larry into the corners of the room.
The insects soon discover the
peel, which to them acts as a
poison.
Roquefort cheese dressing is
made by crumbling or Dreaming
one-third cup of cheese and
blending 1t with one-half cup of
French dressing. This dressing
is most acceptable served on head
lettuce, vegetable or fruit salads.
Scorch stains on white silk can
be removed with bicarbonate of
soda mixed to paste with cold
water.
When fruits such as pluns,
peaches, etc, are to be served as
sauce the skin may be easily re-
moved without injury to the
flavor by first putting the fruit
for a short while in boiling water.
Fruit that has been cut or pared
should be eaten at once, as 1t
turns dark when exposed to the
air.

A WASHINGTON DAYBOOK
By HERBERT PLUMSrER.

imagine" he said; especially II the one
concerned Is a conscientious fellow"
It Is his practice never TO let his
name pass Intentionally and vote later
Often this means making up his mind
during split second. In fact, he ad-
mitted that many times he had deter
mined how he would vote in the inter
val when he heard his name called and

A Senate roll call comes without
warning at times. And often much
depends on what Ashurst does.
There was, for example, the occasion
Of the prolonged filibuster in the Senate
back in 1915 on the ship purchase bill.
It was believed by the Democratic Sem
atorS in charge of the bill that a roll
call might be obtained. And under the
rules of the Senate when one Senator
answers to his name further debate is
impossible.
On this fact the Democrats pinned
their hopes of ending the f1libuster.
Ashurst was first on the roll call. So
with the patience Of an Oriental he
sat in his seat continuously for 81 hours
and 10 minutes, waiting, waiting for
his name to be called.
He was one of the most important
figures in that celebrated parliamentary
battle. At night he slept on sofa in
the Senate chamber; during the day
he sat in his seat. For should the Re-
publicans falter in their campaign Of
words, should they lose the floor long
enough for the clerk to sing out "Sena-
tor Ashurstl" and for him to answer,
another round in the battle would have
been won for the Democrats.
As it so happened his name was never
! called.
But to show you how I was keyed
up" he said, near the end of the fill
buster, while I lay sleeping on my sofa
in the back Of the chamber, dreamed
that the clerk had called my name.
And they tell me that I yelled out then
and there:

Colored Face Powders.

The best beauty shops tell you that
you should buy much lighter color
face powder In the Winter than in the
Summertime. 1t is natural to expect
the skin to be several shades darker
during the months when the sun is hot
besides which a sun-tanned skin looks
very curious with Winter woolens.
So If your skin does not seem a good
color to you, try choosing another face
powder. The tendency nowadays Is to
put too much orange and too much
brown into face powders, as well as
into rouge and lipstick. At first this
was done to give q sophisticated effect
and to get away from the pink and
white, very youthful and very simple
makeup that had been in fashion. In
my opinion, the orange makeup has
been overdone. RoSe-red and geraniun-
red are far more becoming than the
orange red used in the last few years.
Try face powder one or two shades
lighter than what you have been using
Use fairly bright red for rouge and
hpStick, but be sure 1t Is red, with o
good deal of blue in it rather than a
red that runs to orange. If you do not
understand this, put several boxes Of
rouge together and compare their colors
and you will see what mean.
If you use vanishing cream as q
foundation, try this stunt to overcome q
sallow skin: Mix a few drops Of liquid
rouge with your jar of cream until it
Is the very faintest pink. This is very
effective in overcoming skin that Is
pale and unhealthy looking. If the
cream goes streaky. simply mix it up
again before you use it.
Do not ever use too much makeup.
A rather pale face looks well with the
black dresses that are so smart this
year. If the cheeks are pale, the lips
must have a fair amount of color.

The Cost Of Schools
S'9HsH

It estimated that more than nine billion dollars
is raised by various units Of government III the Unit
ed States each year by taxation Roughly, this runs
about ten per cent Of the total national income. 1t IN
cludes federal state and local taxation
Public education takes more than one-fourth OF
the amount received from taxation Elementary and
secondary education costs So 1800000O0 each year,
according to the Federal Office of Education and it
colleges are included the total expenditure for ed
cation very close to S25000000OO annually lhe ac
tlla values Of the buildings, grounds and equipment
used in the processes Of public education amounts to
Sc 333 838 588 of which about one-eghth is invested
for collegiate construction.
According to the National Education Association,
while the governments spending two and onehalf
billion dollars for education each year the American
people spent more than three billion dollars for life
insurance over six billion dollars for certain lux
uries such as tobacco, confectionery, amusements,
SPORTS jewey and cosmetics more than seven billion
dollars for new buildings and oyer twelve billions
dollars for new automobiles.
It is doubtful if in the history of mankind any
similar effort to extend education to every inhab
nt has ever been made The process has not been at
work long enough yet to fully value its results There
is question in many minds as to failure to develop
the character as well as the mind In Our educational
process Even now more attention is being given to-
wards the moral aspects of misunderstanding.

The Lawyers Oath

The American Bar Association has formulated
an oath which is suggests could be required OF all ap-
plcants for the practice Of law. 1t is comparatively
short very clear and concise. Every lawyer should
seek to live up to it's requirements 1t reads as follows
'I will support the Constitution OF the United
States and the Constitution OF the State OF ONO:
Il will maintain the respect due to courts of JUS
tice and judicial officers.
II will not counsel or maintain any suit or pro
ceeding which shall appear to me to be unjust, nor
any defense except such as | believe to be honestly
debatable under the law of the land.
II will employ for the purposes OF maintaining
the causes confded to me such means only as are
consistent with truth and honor, and will never seek
to mslead the judge jury by any artfice OF false
statement of fact or law.
Il will maintain the confidence and preserve in
violate the secrets of my Client and will accept no
compensation ia connection with his business except
from him or with his knowledge and approval
II will abstain from all offensive personality, and
advance no fact prejudcial to the honor or reputa
tion of Witness unless required by the justice OF
the cause with which am charged.
Il will never reject, from any consideration per-
sonal to myself the of the defenseless or op-
pressed delay any mans cause for ucre or malice
so help me, God
Money making has been the goal Of some Of our
biggest business men, and that is of the reasons
why there is unemployment in the nation today. En-
poyers of labor a large scale should heed the adj
vice of some of their progressive and farseelng
leaders, and strive to give workers continuous en-
poyment.

Main Street Looks at Broadway
By OBSERVER
Worlds Worst Singer

w OH = VVOASG 0AA6CA
The METROPOLITAN Opera House
stands on a square block with its
northeast corner at Fortieth Street
and Broadway In the big auditor
ium the worlds greatest singers
entertain during the season the.
wealthiest and most famous audi
cnces in the world.
Under the corner mentioned there
is a subway entrance and. stationed
in it every morning as the Office
workers pour by him on their way
to work, stands blind beggar. He
sings to attract attention.
OF all the voices ever heard his
must be the worst. 1t is mono
tone, penetrating and absolutely de-
void of any quality of human SYM
pathy. 1t is curious that within a
few yards of the stage where the
worlds best singers appear can be
found the worlds poorest voice.
Beggars Licensed
All New York beggars must OBJ
tain cfty license before being per-
mitted to importune passers-by.
They are given badge similar to
those carried by hucksters, truck
men, and other legitimate workers.
In no other city in the United
States can so many beggars be
found on the street. Frankly, New
York streets of the present day, in
this respect, resemble those of Lon
don when Dickens was prowling
around getting material for the
Sketches by Boz.

Spring in big city brings out the
"city farmers" in force. On Man

sists of flowers. Usually lone pot

refugees from Europe, Chinatown

tionalities all go in for this kind of
farming in about the same degree.
One thing that never fails to
arouse feeling of sorrow in the
breast of the visitor is the occa-
sional tree to be found i'll a back
yard In almost all cases the trees
wear an air of slowly choking to
