my Dear Mrs Post: How should a

Answer: He should accept it with

Toad. Then he started straight for

he gently put Old Mr.. Toad down on
the shore. Mr.. Toad's eyes looked as

Mlady Beautiful
BY LOIS LEEDS.

~ EAR MISS LEEDS: Please tell
me If the following Chinese
eyelash stain will really color
- my lashes and whether 1t Is
harmless. It Is made Of !
dram gum arabic, ounces roSewater
and u dram india ink. Would 1t be
expensive to have 1t made up at a
drug store? DOLLY.
Answer.-I do not think the stain
Is harmful, provided, Of course, that 1t
does not get into the eyes. The In
gradients are not expensive ones. How
ever, 1t would be more satisfactory for
you to use mascara or q ready-prepared
eyelash dye Of the correct shade. The
recipe you quote would deepen the color
of your lashes while it remains on.
LOIS LEEDS.
Hairs ON Arms; Pimples.
Deer Miss Leeds: Cd How can get
rid of hairs on my arms? (2) I have
lots Of pimples on my face. How can
take them of? A READER.
Answer.-Q) The most practical way
to handle this beauty problem is to
remove the hairs at intervals with q
depilatory. Permanent removal Of the
hairs by electrolysis would be too
tedious and expensive. If the hairs
are not very numerous, II WOul0 really
be better plan to bleach them with
17-volume peroxide instead Of trying to
take them of.
ca Pimples require two kinds Of
treatments carried out at the same
time-namely, external and internal
treatments. The former includes
thorough cleansing and antiseptic meas
ures. A boric acid pack at least once
week is often helpful Mix two table
spoonfuls of the boric acid powder with
enough water to make thin paste and
then blend in one tablespoonful Of
facial cream. Spread the pack on the
skin after it has been cleansed and
leave 1t on for half an hour. The fol-
lowing skin lotion Is also helpful for
pimply skins: Four ounces rosewater,
l dram glycerin, dram spirits Of cam
phor and dram precipitated sulphur.
This may be applied several times q
day. 1t is best to avoid using makeup
on skin like yours until it is cleared
up. Be sure to wash your face morning
and evening. Mild sunburn will be
beneficial
Internal treatments are just as neces-
sary as external ones. First and fore
most, you must watch your diet. Make
it a rule to eat some fresh fruit, large
serving of salad and some vegetable like

Two.Year-Old Not Ready to
Listen to Reason.
By FLORENCE LA GANKH,

There were times when Lois thought
she would go mad. Here was her only
child, 2-year-old Ann, just running all
over the place and getting into mischief
20 times day. From the moment the
little girl was up until she went to bed
1t seemed to Lois that she could do
nothing but scold the child, run after
and punish her. AS a result when
Roger came home Lois was a wreck.
She poured all her woes into his ear
during dinner time. Occasionally Roger
wished that the baby had never arrived,
for she certainly was working havoc
with his sweet-natured Lois. AS a wife
she had seemed to be perfect, but as
a mother and wife she was not salts
factory In either role
He and she sat down one evening and
tried to talk it over. But Lois feelings
were hurt. She said things she never
meant to say and went crying to bed.
Next day in the hours when Roger was
at business she tried to think things
out. But she was always interrupted by
something Ann did.
At last she listened to herself as she
scolded the baby. She heard herself
going on and on: Now big girl like
you ought to be ashamed Of acting this
way. Don't you love mother? Don't
you realize you are hurting her? Don't
you know If you run out into the street
that way you may get killed." She
seemed to hear herself with new ears.
What did all that scolding mean to a
2-year-old? Nothing at all, except that
every time she did something wrong she
was able to hold her mothers undivid-
ed attention. And that she adored.
The words meant nothing to her She
was not old enough to be reasoned with
Being killed meant nothing more to her
than being fed or put to bed. She had
no conception Of what happened when
one was killed.
Lois turned right about face. She
punished sharply and quickly-no talk
ing, no wordy scenes. Ann soon found
it was no fun to be punished and
banished.

Che lucky writer win rec Ccive Q beamtiftil framed phot0- graph of any of our members and she fellows all have an even chance to run C season pass for the City Amateur lcaeue games. The same tyne of pass will be awarded tine winning kid. The girls should tell woh they like best SD wo may de. tersnine who wins the league present and the same Eoes for tho fellows. To date tho response has been SO overwhelming that the writer spelled the name wrong. Let's have Q change and rexnem- bcr that the 21st is the final date. Santa himself will roll with us on that evening and he will also a. ward the prizes. Anyone can write few lines about anything at ail and in addition they can join in on the results. How about you starting this Lucy or Mrs Kennedy. All right Mrs Simpson we want yours too and from everyone else to wit or something.
 Eddie Loftus the Paper Box terror will show in the North End section tomorrow and this is just Q warning to the opposition. Harry Simpson is planning q week end trip to Jersey. He will perform in a special match while in the skeeter state.
 Jimmy Caffery my pal returned minus the burns as advertised. He showed up late so his heck1ers wouldn't takc notice. Billy De- laney Is becoming quito skilled. Some of tho 5 nilcrs stay in the building now.
 No one ever gets the bad breaks like Jack German. He is about due for a good game so you Chas- CTS will have to get along sonle- how. Patsy Garvey is a good man for opposition. Good for the op- position, mean.
