Beauty Questions Answered.
Whiteheads on Forehead.

- EAR Miss Leeds have a num-
Der Of whiteneads around my
forehead. Will you please tell
4 me what causes them and how
I can get rid of them?-W. W.
Answer.-The presence Of whiteheads
shows that the skin is sluggish and
needs stimulation. Perhaps when you
wash your face at bed time you do not
cleanse your forehead thoroughly
enough for fear of wetting your han:
Push your hair from your brow ana
bind a small towel firmly around IL De-
fore beginning beauty treatments on
voIlr face First cleanse it with clean
ing cream or oil, then massage a milo
soap lather into your skin, rinse well
in clean warm water, then in cold water
and blot dry. Finally apply skin
tonic. II your complexion Is very dry
use the soap every other night. The
only way to remove the whiteheads Is
TO open each carefully with a sterilized
needle after having rubbed the skin
with alcohol or other antiseptic. Gent
ly press out the contents and make
second application Of the antiseptic.
Exercise every day to stir up your cir
culation. Walk outdoors several miles
a day. LOIS LEEDS.
Dear Miss Leeds--I am 13 years "a,
5 feet 4 inches tall and weigh ll6
pounds. 1 am always taken to be at
least l6 or II years Of age. Is this
because I use makeup? I use just
enough rouge, powder and lipstick to
give me color. A. b. Z.
Answer-You are, tall for your age,
which may make you look older, but
it Is your use of artificial color that
gives people wrong impression about
you. You are far too young to use
lipstick and rouge. If you are healthy
YOU should have enough natural color
in YOUR face. The use Of makeup by
a girl Of your age destroys the appear
ance of youthful freshness that Is the
chief charm of the early teens. You
will never be young again, so why
throw away the charm that belongs to
your period of life? LOIS LEEDS.
Dear Miss Leeds-I had a few freck-
les on my nose and to get rid OF them
I used a bleaching cream. Instead Of
getting nd Of them now have more
freckles. My friends say they are not
noticeable, but they worry, me lot.
Can you tell me of anything that will
absolutely take away the freckles?
FRECKLES.
Answer-If your freckles last through
the Winter they are probably OF the
permanent variety and there is really
no way to eradicate them completely.
The cream you used evidently bleached

Eight to Eleven.

TINE children who are between 8
and IL years of age, roughly
speaking, are not understanding
i creatures in the sense that they
can be approached through their
understanding. their reasoning and
Judgment. They have not yet arrived at
that stage of power.
These half -fledged children need rou-
tine 1t is necessary that they follow
a steady day-by-day program OF work
and play Their meals are to be served
on schedule time, their bed time is set.
Their round of duties has sort OF mo-
notonous variety that keeps them grow
ing steadily and evenly. There must be
no absences from school, no excuses for
neglect Of work. No lapses in health
habits.
This is the time to teach rules and
tables and definitions. A few words OF
explanation may be necessary II they
ask for it. But do not make the mistake
of trying to explain long division, or in
version of the divisor in fractions, or
why two and two are four and not some
thing else. 1t is so, and that's all about
it. Grammar rules need few words.
The examples, the rules, the application
given in steady order and drilled. That
is the right way to teach II years.
When a child of this period does
what is wrong, make no sermon about
it. Make no attempt to appeal TO his
reason and understanding. If he un-
derstood why he was not to shove a
weaker boy down stairs, or snatch an
apple from a fruit stand as he passed,
or break a window with stone, he
would not do either or any of them. But
he does not understand. He is to be
told in as few words as possible that
it is wrong TO take advantage Of q
weaker person; wrong to take what Is
not ones own: wrong to injure another's
property. But cut the story short and
make the application long
He is to show by his conduct. in prac-
teal ways, that he has accepted your
word that what he did was wrong. He
may take charge of the weaker boy and
protect him for q while. He makes
good the pilfering. He repairs the dam
age. Then you forget it and quickly.
Much trouble is caused by trying to
explain the unexplainable to children
of this growth. Teachers and parents
try to explain the child's duty to society
They try TO explain rules the basis Of
which lie far back in the growth of the
race They try to explain God and the
church and the state They try to ex-
plain life itself to cropping children and
they lose their own way and bewilder
the children.
Accept children as children. When
they reach the stage where explanations
carry meaning. they will ask for them
and weave them into their mental
fabric If you force such processes
upon them, they cannot use them at
