My Neighbor Says:
Baked peaches and pears ,

Baked peaches and pears are
delicious. Peel fresh fruit. Sprin-
kle with lemon juice and sugar
and bake in moderately slow oven
until tender. Fruits prepared
this way can be served with
meats or as dessert.
Sal soda, half package, added
to a bucket of water will remove
varnish from floors. A little am
monia added to the water and
sal soda helps to remove the
varniSh more easily.
Always remove paper from cake
as soon as cake is removed from
the pan. The paper will stick If
allowed to remain on the cake
and it will be difficult to re-
move it.
Any time within the next few
weeks will be all right to sow
aster seeds indoors. For the
first week or two, at least, keep
a paper or cloth over the box in
which the seeds are contained,
removing it to water the earth
every day. If you neglect to do
this the soil gets hard and
crushed, making it difdcult for
the seeds to break through. A
moist temperature is the most
satisfying for starting early
plants.

IL Is comparatively simple Tor q
parent to instill courage in q
child by showing constant ex-
i ample Of courage. Most enlight-
ened parents do. 1t Is taken for
granted, too, that parents will not, at
least consciously, develop fears in a
child by the use Of silly and preposter-
GUS threats, in the hope Of encouraging
good behavior. Painful punishments
have fallen under the ban of the men,
tai hygienist, because, If effective, their
aftermath is fear; fear of pain, which
emotion does more harm to the child
than the improved behavior does good.
1t Is no wonder, then, that parents,
having lived up to these modern pre-
cepts, are confounded when their child
Is full of timidity-afraid Of people
things, events, everything.
We have to hunt for explanations Of
the child's fear. The timid child often
plays upon this note Of timidity be-
cause it gives him a personal hold over
the parents "Helen's timidity" be-
comes a distinguishing characteristic,
drferentiating the child from her sis
ters and brothers. 1t gives her the
right to sit close to the parent. to hold
the mothers hand, to get the last
comforting goodnight kiss. to demand
dren, because Helen Is always 50
scared"
In word, Helen's timidity pays
good dividends. 1t prevents her having
to stand alone in an unsympathetic
world where good little girls, who
aren't afraid, get no special attention
whatever.
1t would seem advisable to let Helen
discover that courage pays better profits
than timidity. Being courageous, even
when inspired by fear, real or pre-
tended, should be made to seem de-
sirable and admirable. To do this we
have to admit that fear Is a definite
and often dtsagreeable sensation. 1t is
nothing we can laugh of or talk the
child out Of. But such a disagreeable
emotion may be made harmless If We
recognize it and learn to enjoy it.
We have seen children who delib-
erately arouse fear by telling ghost
stories, by chasing each other about
dark halls with gruescCne yellS or
weird, shivery noises. They enjoy it.
The chills run delightfully."- up and down
their spines. Let the timid child learn
to enjoy her sensations by admitting
them. Let her shake exaggeratedly
with the full consent and encourage
ment of her mother. and shake until
she is ready to laugh. Any one who
tries this will discover that soon the
laughing stiles the shaking and the
fear sensation itself tends to disappear.
Suppressing fears because they in
spire ridicule or shame does not dis
sipate them Using them as club
over worried parents should prove
profitless Instead, let the timid child
express his fear to the utmost, making
a game of it, until the actual emotion
inspiring the play goes skittering.

SAFE CUPS AND "BUBBLERS. 4"

SAFE CUPS AND "BUBBLERS.
= ONE persons speak about "the
good old days." but in some ways
the old days were bad days.
~ am thinking, for example, Of
the old-time common drinking
cup. This cup, usually made Of tin or
other metal, was placed beside faucet
or pump; and those who wanted water
used it, one after another.
Then men of science and public
health officers began to study the COM
mon drinking cup. What they learned
has filled many a page in books. To
sum it up. we may say, simply:
THE common drinking cup was
proved to be a great danger. Germs,
some Of them very bad ones. were
found around the rims When passed
from mouth to mouth, the germs spread
disease"
The facts which were brought before
the public led to laws to guard the peo-
pies health. Railways were ordered to
supply paper cups for passengers to
Use when drinking water Drinking
fountains were placed in Office build
tngs, IN public schools and in parks.
Today the common drinking cup is al
most entirely thing Of the past.
Drinking fountains, or "bubblers, u
marked big advance over the old sys-
tenn Of providing water. Tests proved
that even some of the drinking foun-
tains were not entirely safe; but the

n \ ANY women and girls who ask
Nu me for advice about improving
V their hair color are much op-
i posed to the use Of hair dyes.
They want something that will
affect the color Of their hair but will
not be harmful. The answer to their
problem Is contained in the word
"rinses," which has recently been tax
ing on more definite meaning than
it used to have.
One used to rinse" the hair after
q shampoo to get the soap out. Now
adays one uses a special ".<1lse" to add
color after the plain cleansing rinses
have done their work.
Blondes are probably more interested
in rtnses than other types. For them
there Is the old chamomile or lemon
rinse and the peroxide rinse. The latter
Is most used in beauty shops, and IS
made of varying mixtures of water and
hydrogen peroxide. The platinum rinse,
which happily has never had wide
vogue, is nothing but a very strong
bleach followed by a blue rinse.
A more legitimate use Of the blue
rinse Is for removing the yellowish
tinge from white hair. One should use
a special hair bluing for this rinse
rather than laundry blue. The hair
bluing Is much concentrated, so that 1t
must be greatly diluted. II used too
strong 1t produces an unnatural purple
effect which cannot be washed out.
For dark hair the henna rinse Is
being widely used. 1t gives lovely
deep auburn shade to dark brown hair.
and when used on black hair it brings
out beautiful bronze highlights. This
rinse should not be applied to light
hair, since it imparts an unpleasant
orange tinge when so used.
Rinses are sometimes used for pur-
poses other than for tinting the hair.
The vinegar rinse, for instance. adds
softness and luster to coarse hair and
is chiefly used for permanently waved
hair. Once a month Is often enough to
use this acid rinse. Other acid rinses
