ROBERTS APPETITE FAILS OFF,

Such a to.do at the Johnson home lntelyl It seems thnt young Robert decided to Ro on q hunger strike, For a threc- -ycnr.0ld Inc has always had n wonderful np. petite but lntely it has apparently fallen off. met Mrs J0hnson on tho street the other dny and she told mo nbout it--ahow Robert wouldn't his brcnkfnst that morn Ing, and how ho absolutely refused to take hts m!d.mornlnR milk, nnd haw he hnd suddenly taken . dis- liko 10 potnfbcF, for no apparent reason Sho couldn't c0nx him 10 ent them now, although he hgA always been particularly fond of them.

 The thought of that exubernn' Youngster's needing n tonic made me laugh, thought did aRree thnt n mild dose of milk of mngnesln might he.p. Hut couldn't help feeling thnt what Robert needed was not more attention but l0sr Mrs Johnson admitted that she had tried both forcing and conylng him, So l explained to her that both methods do more hnrm thnn good, TO foree Robert will antn' gonize him and mnke him take n real dislike Co his food, for thercs a decidedly obstinate stonk in his makeup, aB Mrs Johnson well knows. on the other hand. to coax him will make him feel that ho ia the conter of nttenti0n--thnt ho hns his mother nicely undor hls thumb--nnd naturally, he won't give up tho center of tho stage if ho enn help itl It's pleasant to b0 fussed over md conxed, but lts not very good for little boys.

 Tho bcH thing Mrs Johnson can do If Robert refuses to cat is to lot him g0 hungry until tho next meal. Of course thnt means no candy and no in.betwecn sn0eks, no matter how much ho begs. lt sounds hard hearted. but it renlly isn't. for q healthy child can mlas several meals and not suffer any serious effects, and if ho is Co learn right habits his m0ther tnnd thnt means fnther tool must ,bo firm from the beginning,

 YOURSELF
MAKEUP ENHANCES BLACKS
 SMARTNESS
By Alieis Hart


 Any woman can wear black or white, if she knows how Co make. up.
 all the color out of your face and bring to the surface every bit of sallowness that you have. It can make you look older than any other color. unless it iH purple. And it can make you look sadder.
 But, given the right makeup and n chic black dress and noth. ing on earth can make you as smart. If you are aallow, wear lingerie touches Of off.white, pale pink, soft blue. '
 10 careful of your rouge with n blnck dress. It's shade depends on your own coloring, You can wear rouge that actually matches the color your lips and checks would be if, for instance, you lived in England. Get q rich, blood shade. If you do that, then use powder that has as light n tone ns you can stand, without looking ohnlky, Never use white powder. Few women can stand pinklsh now dor, Mix a littlo nnturcile in with it, If you do attompr pink powder black dress. Mako them up with the tone that is best with your eyes, Brown for brown or black eyes, blue for light brown, hazel and blue eyes, Try green if you have q doubt In your own mind, mix some green with your blue. or even try purple cyo shadow. J'so carcnra sparlngly. Black shows up every bit of makc.up.
 In white, you can be nut brown maidon and bo stunning. Whlte makes a woman look young. CT md nicer than any color can.
 But Just remember that white needs careful makc.up too. You should pick n vivid llpstiok and rouge for lt. And you cnn try out for evening, aii those cnchant. Ing lavender and Rreen and blue powders that you've been gazing nt but never dared try.

Famous Kidnapings

The kidnapping Of the Lindbergh baby has re-
called many other similar crimes, number of which
baffled all efforts to apprehend the dnapers or find
trace OF the stolen children Among them these:
Charlie Ross stolen in Germantown, Pa, in 1874
Catherine Winter kidnapped in Newcastle, Ind,
in 1913,
Jimmy Glass, abducted in jersey City in 1915.
Billy Gaffney, kidnapped in Brooklyn in 1927
Children kidnapped and known to have been kill
ed include the following:
Lloyd Kent Of Springfield, Mo-, in 1917
Billy Dansey of New Jersey in 1919.
Bobby Franks Of Chicago in 1924, for whose muir
Ger Loeb and Leopold are serving life sentence.
Marian Parker Of Los Angeles, for whose abduc-
ton and murder in 1927 William Hickman was cleo
trocuted
Marian Mclean, kidnapped, assaulted and killed
in Cincinnati in 1881, her murderer having confessed
after capture.
In number Of cases kidnapped children were re-
stored to their parents unframed, sometimes after
payment Of ransom
Several of the cases mentioned created nation
wide interest, but no kidnapping in the worlds his
tory has inspired such universal indignation against
the perpetrators, Or such sincere sympathy for the
parents as has the abduction of Charles Augustus
Lindbergh, Jr.
