Walking for Beauty

her. "but whenever you can. let them roll by, and walk. And re- member that how you walk is i'm portant too. Head up-chest up-- abdomen Into cultivate correct posture. And when you walk breathe deeply. Practice deer breathing exercises every morning before an open window. Fresh air is hard to find in a large city, So when you find some. squeeze every bit of oxygen out of it.
 "There-I'm late for my bridge" said Sally, and really meant to walk"

the best Cupid's bow. Go easy on the lower lips coloring. Leave all the work to the upper one, to get the best effect.
 If your mouth is just plain unirl- .teresting, and you admit it to your self in the privacy of your own boudoir, here is trick you can try. Lipstick the under lip heav- fly, touch the upper one lightly. This gives an intriguing. different look to the face that your best friend may be puzzled about, but fascinated by, nevertheless.
 And whatever type of lips you draw this winter, be sure to color the inside of the lip as well. Even a bit of Ipstick on the gums is a good idea. It gives a vital, healthy look.

BATHING PLANTS

During the winter your house plants need baths. For plants get moisture through their leaves as we'll as through their roots. Place them in your tub every few days. turn your shower on gently and let them have the refreshing ex- perience of a real bath.

SAVING CREAM If you rinse out your cream pitcher with cold water just be- fore putting the cream into 1t, this
 will prevent 1t sticking and give
 you full benefit of all the cream there.

NON.LEAK SPOUT

Rub little butter on the spout of your cream pitcher before set ting it on the table. This lets the cream skid over the. spout and pre- vents 1t leaking onto the cloth.

looking back on the denominations Of
war, its filth and danger and stencil and
horror, 1t seems astounding to me that
great masses of men SHOULD have shown
such resignation, such courage, in con-
ditions to which all present poverty or
hardship have no comparison. How is
it that in peace time men cannot endure
a hundredth part of such discomfort
without despair?
I think the answer is that there was
wonderful sense of comradeship

Deliberate cruelty to animals is almost

Perhaps it is because the dog is our

@ND when one comes to think Of it
~ one can simplify ones needs and
still get lot out of life. A mans body
needs very little for its upkeep. Most
OF us eat too much. A mans clothes
need not cost an awful lot to cover his
nakedness. An old pair of pants and
a shirt open at the neck may be an
excellent costume for fellow who wears
laugh in his eyes.
It's a queer thing that some men and
women have actually made themselves
poor in order to find happiness! One
Of them was young fellow named
Francis, the son of a rich merchant. He
had been a gay spark, dandy, proud
of his fine clothes. Then one day he
took off these things and exchanged
them for beggar's rags. OF course,
everybody thought he was mad and his
father tried to have him locked up But
he went about among the poor and the
sick and was always merry. He had
good voice and in his days as young
man about town had used it for singing
bawdy songs. Now he sang the same
tunes but different words-words in
praise of Christ, whom he happened to
adore. He had great gift of laughter
and laughed most when there was very
little food in his stomach and when he
had to sleep on the bare earth, never
cold because of some inner fire of love.
He was an italian from a town called
Assist
That was long time ago, but I re-
member in my own time hearing lot
of laughter which is now silenced. It
came from men who lived in holes in
the earth and whose clothes were YER
minous Some of them had come from
very good homes with every comfort.
Some of them had had hot baths every
night of their lives Now they were liv-
ing in the greatest discomfort, up to
their knees in water if the weather were
bad and their particular hole in the
earth were in low-lying ground. Over
head came the scream of queer birds
searching for their bodies. Old Man

among all these men and that they were
all enduring the same things together,
without q sense Of inequality and in
justice, except against generals and
sergeant majors and war profiteers, and
that they were all in for the same pur-
pose, on the level, without the bother of
keeping up with the Joneses" and
straining to maintain good social posi-
ton. It was a terrific adventure from
which all unnecessary complications of
life had been stripped. Life itself was
the great thing. A man was extraordi-
narily lucky If he had that and could
keep it.
Let nothing ye dismay. Can't we
shout that to our own hearts when the
economic situation looks worse than
ever? It's not advice would give espe-
cially to those who are wageless and job
less, but would give especially to those
who still have little more than enough.
know the horror of poverty, all right.
It is sometimes very squalid; it is often
cruel.
It is at its worst a demon destroying
the minds as well as the bodies of men
and women and pretty girls and little
children. I have seen it after the World
War, in Austria and Germany and other
countries. 1t Is easier to be gay in ad-
verSity If one has enough to eat, some
kind of roof over ones head, some hope
for better luck tomorrow. 1t is hardest
when poverty becomes a routine and
when hope goes, and when charity dries

does not hold the same poverty, SO
grinding and so pitiless. The old horror
has been lifted from the slums, in spite
of unemployment. The prisons are not
so foul. Those who are at work get bet
ter wages. Those who are out of work
get kinder charity than that of old
Scrooge before his heart was softened.
But the point I want to make is that
Dickens showed that there could be
laughter, merrymaking, the Christmas
spirit, around tables not richly laden
with fat meats, in homes not splendid
in their luxury. He himself kept the
gift of laughter, made it echo around
the world, brought it into many hearts,
although his own boyhood had been i'm
prisoned in a backing factory and his
youth had been a hard fight with pow
erty. Strange, that-and rather COM
forting.
There is one line in an old Christmas
carol which seems to me the best mes
sage to the world today. Let nothing ye
dismay. Not even world depression.
Not even private losses. Not even
hunger, though that is hard. Per-
haps tomorrow the luck will turn. Even
if it doesn't, let us face tomorrow with
a certain mockery, with laugh if pos
Sible, for there is still life, and friend
or two, and a touch of courage in us.
What do we need for happiness?
look back to my adventures in life and
think of the happiest people have met.
They were mostly poverty stricken. They
were unsuccessful authors, painters,
poets and odd fellows. They had to
make few shillings go long way at
cafe table or a cheap restaurant But
they kept laughing. They found life
a good joke. They had sense of beauty
and found it cheap. There was no
charge for a sunset over some chimney
pots or flower strewn field. There was
no tax on the lines of a naked tree
etched against a gray sky. One didn't
have to pay to lean over a parapet and
watch river flowing by. They had a
sense of humor, and it was worth more
than gold to them. They had ideas-odd
ideaS!-and the gift of conversation. A
few cigarettes, an old pipe gave them
all the comfort they needed in the COM
pany of fellows like themselves. They
could get a lot of life which was missing
to the big business man with his cares
and his accounts

N PUPPY should be fed at least four
~ times day until he is three months
old; three times day until he is six
months old, and once day thereafter,
or a dog biscuit, in the morning. Raw
beef, cooked beef, raw eggs, cooked
lamb, milk, leafy vegetables and very
little cereal. such as dog biscuit, rice,
oatmeal or dry toast, should be the chief
foods for a dog. A third of a pound of
raw beef To each 10 pounds OF his weight
is safe estimate. Eggs are as necessary
as meat to the growing puppy; they may
be fed raw, scrambled, soft boiled or
poached, never fried or hard boiled.
Milk does not agree with all dogs, but
it is a valuable food when tolerated.
Vegetables and cereals serve as rough
age, and should be fed accordingly. Raw
veal bones are good toothbrushes for
the pup.
Never feed a dog pork, poultry bones,
lamb bone, candy, potatoes, fresh bread
or any very hot or very cold or highly
seasoned food. 1t is particularly i'm
portant that the puppy's food be about
room temperature. Fresh, clean water
must be accessible at all times. House.

M UT I believe that great deal Of
a the distress and despair in the
world today would be eaSed If there were
more comradeship in the sharing of it,
and If those who had a bit of luck-a
margin of comfort-a good job and a
good wage-were to hand over a bit
more to those who have been harder hit.
The spirit of st. Francis of Assist, his
laughter and his songs would be very
welcome If 1t walked through some of
our industrial cities. Because it is the
spirit of charity as much as the amount
of check which helps to heal wounded
souls.
friend of mine named G. K Ches-
terton once remarked that we may all
be going to the dogs, but they may be
rather jolly dogs. There is something
in that. No mortal man knows-at least
I have not met such a man-what is
going to happen in the economic world.
We may have to go through deeper pow
erty before we can catch glimpse of
the flying skirts of prosperity. But I
am certain that we could make poverty
more endurable for ourselves and others
by kind Of stole, or better still, if you
like, a more Christian contempt for
hardship and lean days.
There are other values beyond those
that are material. There is beauty.
There is a sense of humor. There is
comradeShip. There is even love. And
for youth caught up by the flame of
love there is no need of a coal fire. There
is not much in the quality of the meal.
Better dinner of herbs where love Is
than a stalled OK and hatred there
with"
The world is rather cold this Christ
mastide in many homes and by many
hearths, but something might happen
in the new year that is coming if on
Christmas day some spirit touched US
and caught us up in flame of love-not
for the eyes of pretty girl, though
those are good, but for all humanity, for
all poor devils down on their luck, for
all children not getting fair chance of
life, for working men and women who
have no wages and no work. We might
get more laughter into the world even
though exports were not booming. We
might keep our sense of humor, even If
our clothes are getting shabby. We
might get into these times of peace
something of that spirit of the trenches
when men still made a jest of grim
things. Anyhow, am going to say "A
Merry Christmas!" to my friends, and

ALCOHOL TRIALS
NEAR CONCLUSION
Two New Jersey Firms Ac-
cused of Converting Indus
trial Product for Beverages.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
BALTIMORE, March 10.-One brief
statement by counsel in Federal Court
today will bring to a close the trial Of
two New Jersey firms charged with
seven individuals of conspiring to con-
vert into beverage channels cracked in
dustrial alcohol, and Judge William @.
Coleman will place the case in the
hands of the jury.
Evidence was completed yesterday,
with all of the arguments except the
summation by Leslie r. Salter. special
assistant attorney general. Trial of
the case occupied two full weeks and
more than 100 witnesses were called by
the Government.
The two firms, the Agricultural
Chemical Works and the Midwest
Chemical Works, were accused by Gov
ernment witnesses with shipping cracked
alcohol as insecticides to several points
about the country where agents had set
up stills to turn the product into
liquor.
At the beginning of the trial there
were 10 individuals, but the second day
Of the trial three received permission
to change their pleas from not guilty to
guilty. Judge Coleman was told they
were unable to engage counsel due to
financial reasons.
The three were released under bond
and will be sentenced at the conclusion
Of the litigation.
All of the defendants in the present
action were included in a large group
indicted by the Federal grand jury last
July. Another group is scheduled to 60
to trial at once, while the third ap-
peared in court recently and entered
pleas OF nolo contendere.
