But gradually Ellen became
aware that her mood was depress-
ing and bewildering Steven. He
had sunk back gloomily into the
cushions and was staring straight
ahead and away from her. 1t was
her job to make him happy. With
her eyes wide open she had chosen
that job. She set about bringing
him to good humor again with
Charm and artifice so that in the

All right, that is, with Steven.
After dinner he sent her out to

was glad of the chance to be alone,
glad of the chance to face her own
situation. to face her own soul. In
the end she decided what any Ros-

tread the path she had chosen and

JOHN JOHNSON COMES HOME

Mrs johnson and the baby came

which Robert thinks is very lazy
of him!
Johns daily schedule is as regu-
lar now as it was when he was still
in the hospital. Following my ad-
vice, Mrs johnson has put him on
a four-hour feeding schedule, so
that his day runs like this:
At a. m. he has his first feed
ing, after which he sleeps until 0
a. m. when he has his bath. Claire
and Robert are allowed to see him
for few minutes after his bath, as
long as they don't excite him. Then
at 10 o'clock he is fed again and
afterwards put in his baby car
riage on the sheltered, south porch
where he can get both sunshine
and fresh air. He sleeps until 2
o'clock when he is fed, and then
goes to sleep in his crib in his own
room. At Sis p. m. he wakes
for his evening play-time; the
other children are home then, and
Mr. johnson usually gets back in
time to watch his youngest son
wriggle and kick in his crib. The
"daily dozen" comes after John is
relieved of his daytime clothes and
before he is prepared for bed. OF
course Johns clothes are loose
enough for him to wriggle and
kick at any time but 1t is much
more fun without any bothersome
clothes on at all! Six p. m. is feed
ing time again after which he is
popped into his crib for the night.
Baby as he Is, he sleeps in room
alone, for Mrs johnson knows that
he rests better that way. He also
sleeps in the dark, without any
kind Of night-light. Mrs Johnson
is not going to have him begin bad
habits IL she can help it! At 10
p. m. he is wakened for his final
feeding and then sleeps undis-

Don't Let Hair ''String Along"
No woman gets compliments ga
lore when her hair is dull, drab and
stringy.
The condition of your hair
axes much more difference than
its color or even the way you wear
II this year. 1t is neat spring.
STYLES hug the figure, hair hugs
the head and the life and light In
your hair is what makes 1t glori-
ously attractive or the kind of
head you hate to look at.
Good care shows more in hair
than in any other part OF your
grooming. You can scrub your
face, massage it and have your
skin fairly good. But If you don't
give equal attention to your hair,
you fall short in charm.
Spasdomic brushing never got
luster into any head of hair. It's
the even pull, the strong-on-the-
oar, steady pull that wins the race
for beauty. Get a good brush.
And this means one with bristles
long enough to reach your scalp,
thick enough to take care of all of
your hair. There are some that
have the center bristles little bit
higher than those on the outside.
Like certain toothbrushes. Well,
these hair brushes are a boon to
the woman who likes to have her
scalp feel alert and vibrant.
Spring usually finds your hair
Just a little stringy and tired look
ing. No wonder, covered all win
ter with tight hats, exposed to dry
heat in over-warm homes and Of
fees. Your scalp, too, is probably
dry and tight feeling.
Two things loosen up that scalp
and make it feel relaxed. First,
massage. Second, tonic. One
without the other is inadequate.
Most scalps are greatly In need
of oil, this time of year. 1t may
interest you to know that castor
oil is quite as good for the hair as
for the system. But, since 1t is
anything but pleasant to use,
either use olive oil or melted vas
cline or get some special scalp oil
from your beauty parlor. Cocoa
nut oil is used by many.
Oil twice a week. tonic every
night and morning, hundred
strokes, at least, every night and
morning, and about Is minutes of
steady, good massage and within
a months time, you won't know

Your
CHILDREN
Bv Olive Roberts Barton

Many children won't face the
world-cannot, indeed. Do not be
surprised at this statement, please,
because just as many grown-ups
cannot face 1t either. They shrink
from reality, from the hard bare
facts of living that spell duty, re-
sponsibility, routine, work and var
ious other complications that fail
to their lot.
The truth of the matter is that
all of us have our times when real
life becomes distasteful and we
long to get away.
Then what do we do? Well
various things. A woman goes
shopping-that is a withdrawal
and explains why some women
seek a store for pastime. Or she
goes to a movie, or buries herself
in a book, or goes to bed and
sleeps, or resorts to more health
full forgetfulness by takin. walk
A man goes for golf or for fishing;
or to his club, or to ball game.
And both men and women seek
bridge.
Not all these things aresescapes
invariably. But they are, as often
as not. Any thing by which we
get away from the worlds ham
mering Is an escape.
And many children seek escape
to. Play must not be considered
in this light, of course, because
play is fundamentally constructive
during the growing period. A
childs faculties are developed by
every effort of play. as well as his
muscles and it is the way nature
. o,~sv Ind ~ ka6xy
1 am convinced that many mo-
Tiers who have adopted the new
idea of never telling child a fairy
story, about unreal worlds and peo-
Pile that do not exist, are trying to
counteract any tendency of his to
live away from reality. They want
their children to become matter of
fact, that is, to center their atten-
ton on facts, and not become
dreamers.
Imaginary Unhappiness
But my way would be differ
ent one. Our imaginations are
sources of the greatest happiness
and without them life would be a
mechanical thing indeed. We all
believe in the unreal. When we see
sunset we don't analyze it in
terms of chemistry and astrophysics
and geography, but in the un-nam-
able thing that belongs in our i'm
aginations.
The best way to help a child face
reality is to stop his secret source
of unhappiness for unhappiness is
the reason for all escape. A child
who constantly reads and will not
join in with other children, many
times does so because of deep rea-
son suspected by no one. Something
deep in his heart that torments
him.
Study such children, talk to them
| try to find out If they are unhappy
at school, disconnected in the fam
| lily, possessed of fears or intense
self consciousness. Then go about
eliminating the cause by tact and
kindness and cleverness. If the OBJ
stacle that keeps him from his nor
NAL world is removed and he be-
comes vitality happy and interested
he won't be so keen about escap-
ing-about reading and sleeping
and all that.

he should wake Is about half an
ounce of cool-not cold-boiled
water. I remember, however. that
when Claire was tiny. she had to
have an extra feeding at a. m.
for the first few weeks. Some ba-
bies need it and some do not: the
family doctor is the best judge.
This daily schedule allows Mrs
johnson an undisturbed rest at
night and as much time as possible
during the day to devote to herself
and to the other members of the
family.

Ellen had started on again. But
Mrs Clancy had more to say. She
was evidently somewhat embar-
