All Madonnas have the most
placid brows in the world, when
visualized by famous painters.
There Is a lesson in that partlcu-
lar aspect Of their portraits. In TINS
hectic life, men just naturally IKE
to have women look calm, even I
they aren't. This is especially true
of business offices. The stenograph-
err who manages to weather nur-
ricane in the office usually De
comes a private secretary ana tne
secretary who maintains her CAIN
poise through storms may become
an executive.
Looking calm is quite as salts
factory as staying that way, often.
1t makes folks think you are ana
when you see they are counting on
you, that steadies you SO that you
actually become calm.
IL you have wide apart eyes, you
have q head start. If you haven't,
the way you fix your eyebrows and
wear your hair has a lot to do with
giving the right impression.
See that your eyebrows are
kept back with a good space be-
tween. Have them plucked away,
IL they happen to meet over your
nose. Thin them at the center
edges and darken them just a trifle
more at the outside OF your eye
lids than at the inside. Cultivate
the habit of never frowning. Try
to look easy and carefree and un--
worried, even If your work isn't
done and your bills are bit In
arrears.
Especially, take care of that
space between your eyebrows. Fur
rows there spoil your chances OF
looking calm. Very deep lines there
often indicate poor vision. You
may need glasses. Get them II you
do. But quite as often, deep lines
indicate worry. Smooth them out
mentally and massage them night
and morning, physically. Whether
you know it or not, 1t Is within
your power to develop q calm brow
that will give you a reputation for

By Maroery Hale

As Sally accused Ruth of being
In love with Joe Raynor, Ruth's
face paled a little. She caught her
breath. But she made her voice
calm.
That's absurd, Sally. He hasn't
any more romantic appeal for me
than than the sidewalk!
He's q splendid fellow and every
thing, and / like him a lot, but
you're going down the wrong alley
when you say I'm in love with
him"
Just the same, / think you
are" Sally continued calmly. Il
couldn't expect you to come right
out and say that you aren't. Be-
sides, you're working pretty hard
to deny 1t. If you weren't in love
with him, you wouldn't take 1t so
seriously. You would have sort OF
gasped in surprise and not said
much about 1t. You're too ex-
cited"
Ruth didn't answer this time.
Sally was telling the truth. If Sally
had accused her of being in love
with someone else Dale Court
ney, for example that was the
reaction she would have had.
THAT isn't all, Ruth, the other
girl went on. HE thinks you are,
too"
Does he?" Ruth decided that
she wouldn't try any more denials.
"And 1t embarrasses him.
Quick rage was taking posses
sion of Ruth. SO Joe Raynor was
q cad, was he? Yet she couldn't
think of him that way. She en-
barrassed him!

Sally asked in her hard, bright

asked. You misinterpret all my

But she had to know one thing.
Had to know 1t desperately. She
must find out whether or not Joe

"Wiil you please tell him that
he has no need at all to worry

strength of his imagination. This
Is my corner, Sally. I'll get out.
How is everything at homer"
Sally drew up to the curb and
stopped the car. Everything s
fine. We have some guests for a
week or two. It's just as well that

Ruth had stepped out of the car.
She stood on the curb, one hand

"You don't want to live at

The Lacey girls were studying,
presumably that is. But since
they were in the living room with
the rest of the family and since
the radio and the family CONVEX
sation was going full tilt it was
easy to guess that small studying
was really going on.
When the girls looked up as
Washington name was mentioned
and entered into the discussion at
once, Mrs Lacey was sure that
studying was not their main in
terest. She decided right then and
there, that something must be
done about it. She began to de-
wise ways and means whereby an
unused room upstairs could be
heated and turned into a study
room. In fact she wondered why
they could not use their bedrooms
for study rooms.
But before she had reached that
far In her thinking she was help
ing the girls with their plea for
Washington party suggestions.

Crying won't hurt him."
Well, 1 have had that happen
to me and there / was with science
telling me one thing and on the
other hand a poor little suffering
body crying for help-a change OF
position, a. little soothing, holding
him over the shoulder to get the
gas UP, or other prescribed treat
ment. What was / to do?
Did I follow science? AS far as
I could, yes - for something told
me it was best. But l forgot all
about subconscious minds and
habits very often and did what l
could to makeAthe little sufferer
is comfortable as / could. ! don't
believe it formed the comfort
habit. I am quite sure 1t didn't.
OF course when a. baby gets to
the stage that he wants to be
picked up or toted round just for
the fun of it, that is different. Also
as he gets older and wants to be
kissed and petted every time he
gets bump-that's different,
too.
DR. Sadler is particularly right
when he says that children should
learn to be good losers, and to
accept bit OF hurt without de-
handing sympathy. But it is the
tiny baby that I am wondering
about and l know that others are
too.
All habit really starts at the
bassinette. That Is certain. There
Is no other definite time or place
that says, "Training place! Start
here" But 1 do think the new
baby offers a problem to be
smoothed out. hospitals and doc
tors and scientists Notwithstanding.
/ sometimes wonder IL those
who give such advice ever sat up
day and night for weeks with a
colicky baby. For collie is no joke.

Your
CHILDREN
By Olive Roberts Barton

Recently DIR William s. sadler
eminent Chicago physician and
| surgeon, declared in his address
, that mental hygiene was most
needed and most neglected"
1.-The subsconscious mind" he
said, represents 80 per cent OF
the human mind. Therefore the
cure of all mental ailments lies In
the subconscious mind"
I was particularly interested In
the following statement. "Chil
dren are brought into the world
with only q subconscious mind,
and If parents would begin imme-
diateIy after the child's birth to
demonstrate the uselessness of
crying for wants, about so per
cent of nervous disorders now
found in adults would be elimi-
mated"
Also I was interested when he
stressed the need of games and
athletics to teach children to be
that they cannot win all the bat
ties in the game of life," he adj
vised.
There things are generally ac-
good losers. "They must learn
cepted theories now among experts
In child guidance. And / believe
that the majority of mothers know
this procedure to be wise. But I
also believe it is confusing for IL
young mother whose baby cries
with pain to know just what to do
about 1t.
Such training as DR. Sadler sug-
gests must be started, as he says,
Immediately after birth. And that
Is often hard to do. / wish he had
told more about the babies.

you ever hear one who screamed
night and day with it? And did
your doctor or specialist say. "Tf
