You'll double your beauty If you get rid of a double chin.
 And you'll stand better chance of retaining your good looks IT vou take steps to prevent your self from ever developing one. Almost nothing detracts from a woman's beauty as much as q dou- ble chin. There are things--sini ple things-which you can do to keep that extra roll of flesh. just below your normal chin, from growing.
 All good beauty shops give spe- cial treatments which will, in time. reduce a double chin. If you can not afford to take g whole series or Treatments, at least go and get one treatment, Watch the operator carefully. Then get the proper tonics and lotions and go home to do the treatments yourself.
 You will need. first of. all, a natter. Pat your chin, upward and outward, for ten minutes twice a day. Get Q batter with | flexible handle and don't strike your flesh hard enough 10 bruise 1t. Be gentle-but be firm!
 Special muscle toningl lotions are 'to be used in conjunction with a batter. They strengthen saggins muscles. Astringents are excel- lent too. Get your beauty shop to recommend a good one.
 A chin strap is 8 necessity il you take your chin reducing seri- ously. Have one that really fits the size of your chin and face. II is put on at night before you go to bed and left on all night. Pat your chin with an astringent before you adjust the chin strap.

"Be a good girl and I'll give you a nickel"
 "I want a dime" ..
 'Weil-I'll see. But then you will
 have to be extra good. Remem-
 Dorothy went out. She was go- ing to be good. At least she was not going to be very bad: One thing she knew, she was going 10 get the dime for the ice-cream cone anyway. She always did. She had a iitle way with her, if her mother held out, of giving very
 good excuses. And her lip would tremble and she'd say, T couldn't help that, now, could I, mama?" And mama would capitulate and say, "Well, you tried anyway. Here's your money"
 Temptation Too Great To-day Dorothy and her mother had had a difference of opinion about her going to Mary 'Annes house. To so to Mary Anne's you either had to go round by the
 bridge which took you into tramc or cross the creek at Pine Street by means of two old logs laid to- eether at a steep angle.
 The creek was high now and she
 wasn't allowed to go to Mary
 Anne's at all. But Mary Anne's'
 house was next door to the church and they were getting ready for a lawn fete.
 Dorothy wanted to see them hang up the lanterns and colored lights.
 She went to the creek just to
 take q look. She decided to try 1t Lit looked very safe. Anyway, an ice-cream cone was less exciting than a lawn fete. If by some mir acle she didn't get one-well, there
 were compensations more worth while! She started across the two crooked logs and fell into the creek. The water was not very deep but 1t was dirty. and filled with rubbish. She got out all right but she looked as any little girl would who fell into a dirty creek.
 She was frightened and full of water. She ran home crying. Disciplinary Lesson Lost Her mother was so excited she had either to cry or scold. She scolded and added little smack
 ing. Then she bounced her daugh- | ter into the tub and scrubbed her. Dorothy kept up a running whim- per.
 What's the matter now?" T want my dime. I didn't mean to fall into the creek.
 You can't have it now. You dis obeyed me-"
 After a while in fresh clean
 clothes Dorothy did some deep thinking. There was no dime to earn now. She was practically free
 for the day. It was kind of nice not to have that worried feeling about being naughty. She went down to. the creek and got a big boy to help her across. She had grand time at Mary
 Anne's. And she got some ice- cream anyway. Bribery always ends up this
 way. Children begin to weigh ad- vantages of disobedience against the prize. Sometimes one wins, | sometimes the other, but once we
 begin to buy children to behave | we are lost. Rewards of money,
 toys, candy or a movie are as dis tant from real obedience as the
 poles are apart. It just doesn't do.

old lady in order to be remem- bered. in a will.
 'I think you must have been very happy in this house." she said as she sank into a chair.
 For a moment his face clouded. "I don't suppose" he said, that out some unhappy echoes. Let's them."
 The table in the stately dining room had been arranged with the best the house afforded. Higgins had seen to 1t that the bowl of faint pink roses in the center of the table was a low one across which hungry. eager eyes might meet. You're looking beauti- ful!' Barret reflected, seeing Elinor above the soft confusion of bloom. dcliciously seasoned. Higgins ap- peared, disappeared silently.
 "Your feet don't touch the floor do they, dearest ?" Barrett asked as the butler re-entered the room.
 He did this masquerading very nicely. Elinor thought. She fiush- cd. "No, dear, they don't" she ad- mitted,
 Higgins had been standing at his elbow staring at the contents of a dish he offered. "Souffle. sir" he reminded after a cough. Barrett said, "Oh. yes. to be sure! Souffle." She had said that "dear" quite convincingly. Barrett reflected. This is one of cooks spe cial dishes," he went on. We are being honored. darling"
 Higgins had never heard '"the like of it." Most young married people hid such moods and tried to seem only casually interested in one another at first, hid them even from their servants. .Apd MT Bar rett was usually so slow to voice a feeling! "Higgins," said Barrett, cant you hunt up a small footstool for Mrs Colvin? I want you to be perfectly comfortable, dear" he added across the table. "Thank you. darling, you are so thoughtful!" she murmured. Suddenly they both laughed and then, as suddenly, sobered. In light moments it could seem a joke but for both of them, for one shaken stretch, 1t had been too real.
 Higgins came back to raise the Venetian cut work cloth and push a small stool in place for Elinor's feet.
 "is that better, Mrs colvin?" he asked.
 ~Yes, thank you, Higgins" The butler bowed. The new mistress was going to bring spring and sunshine to the old place. he was sure. Already the house 1 seemed changed. And never had he seen q swectcr, lovelier face. After the meal was finished Elinor and Barrett parted. She was to order Hutch to bring the car around when she was ready to go to see her father. Barrett was going to look in upon Marcia for half an hour or so. Perhaps, he suggested doubt fully, with keen eyes on her face, they could have tea together at a little after four. He spoke cas- ualiy, anxious not to force upon her any more intimacy than she liked. They could talk then about several business matters that must be settled. If this did not suit, he went on, they could put 1t of until another day.
 It suited her perfectly, Elinor assured him. With Q quick beating heart she saw him turn from her.
 AUntil later then" he said.

YouW Warm Up To This Paris Ideal
hort Jackets Ideal For Light Evening Dress Cool Nights
BY JEAN PATOU (Wriifcn for NEA seryicel

WMMNEm MWL v MAM A[NA NANL
 Parls-The selection of colItc- tion of evening dresses for summer presents a real problem to tho woman. who wishes to be well dressed. She Is first of all tempt ed to choose the most summefy. therefore the sheerest creations which, after all, are best suited 10 the season's functions. Yet she is aware that these attractive crea- tions have Q drawback and that is that more than probably. as the evening draws on, she VIII not pc sufficiently protected.
 While a woman can very well wear a satin dress in the summer. the very nature of the fabric makes f. always somewhat formal and therefore does not convey sum- mery impression. A summer even ing dress is always visualized as
 something almost intangible and vaporous, in lace. chiffon or tulle.
 But then comes the vexed problem of the wrap.
 It is in consideration of this pos sible inconvenience that for many seasons now I have included q third piece in my summer ensenl-
 bles, which a woman can retain after having discarded her wrap. This third piece has figured before in summer wardrobes in the guise of the "dalmatique." This was ai-
 ways loose garment. sleeveless aud very light, not as cumbersome
 as a wrap but offering a certain amount of protection. It was useful without being embarrassing.
 Aside from the summer fur cape or wrap, there Is only one possible evening wrap and that is the short jacket. I think that aside from the question of styles and trends. we have some sort of ideal com position of an ensemble. The short jacket, practical. yet sufficiently
 warm, necessary with the very de- collete or sheer dress. is a perfect complement to the light evening dress.
 To avoid taking away any of the characteristics of the summer evening dress therefore. and Qn the other hand, to supply some sort of protection, have added 10
 a number of my ensembles sleeveless garment in addition to the diminutive summer wrap. De- spite its restricted volume, l have been able to express some original ideas in this third piece.
 It can be fashioned of faile or
 velvet or any other fabric with suf- ficient body. It must. however. supply the need for which it was
 created, that is. take up little room, afford a certain amount of protec- ton, be attractive to the eye and at the same time prove Q woitny complement to the dress.

"Cleaning woman?" Sue repeat ed after Sarah Lou.
 "Yes. She didn't come. And isn't the apartment a mess? l meant to straighten 1t, but-oh well, when you are paying wo- man to do 1t. ." Sarah Lou smiled beguilingly. You're hot and tired, Sue. Take a shower and let's go out to tea, then have a late dinner
 "The cleaning woman didn't come because we haven't one! Sue said, ignoring the tea sugges- ton, and scarcely recognizing the not anger in her voice. we can't afford one! We can hardly meet our bills as it is! We figure all a. round a pound of hamburg steak! And we don't buy clothes or go to | movies or. ..... we're poor! You aren't the only one who got lei down in the crash. Judge Thorn lton did! So did Jack! Our homes are gone. We're poor! Poor! I tell you we're poor!" She was aware that her voice was rising in an hysterical scream but she couldn't help 1t. She could't lower it. /"
 You mean you haven't any money at all ?" Sarah Lou's voice, little and frightened and thin, asked.
 "None!" Sue opened her pock- etbook. It was empty. She had had lunch with Jack, who had borrowed a few dollars from his father "Pm. sorry-but we just haven't any money"
 "Then I'd better pack my trunks and go. I didn't know-Pm sorry" Sarah Lou was really sorry. It was in every gesture, every tone. But she had erred, mistakenly though 1t had been. Sue wanted to apolo- gize but she could not. Waves of heat were rolling into the room. Dust lay thick on the floor. The windows were rather dull where the rain had washed dirt down from the door.
 Sarah Lou was entering the bed room. Now she came out.
 But I can't go, Sue. I haven't any place to go!" There was mute misery in her voice. She repeated the words more slowly. "I-have o-place-to--go!"
 Stil Sue didn't answer. The jelly and chicken breasts and the heat and the dust were clogging her mind, her heart, her throat.
 'I'll pay you for the money l spent--it's so hard, being poor" All of q sudden Sarah Lou's gold en head went down on her arms and sobs tore at the slim, vibrant young body.
 Sues inertita vanished. She was across the room and her arms were around the younger girl. "Oh, l am so sorry, so dreadfully sorry. I didn't mean to say anything. Not ever, for anything! But the heat and the dust and the poverty. .. :"
 1T know. Oh, don't see how you could stand 1t to see me buy ing things and ordering things and acting the way I did! Why didn't you tell me? Oh, Sue. ...."
 But the time. Jack came they had bathed their tear-stained faces and slipped into cool thin frocks and Sue strengthened the apart ment. She set a table in the win dow. The breasts of chicken went into salad. Cold slices of tomatoes, cool, crisp lettuce, stuffed olives. thin bread and butter sandwiches would make salad plates, she de- cided. She had prepared some jel- lied consomme the night before. It was cold and palatable now. Waters and iced tea would com plete the dinner.
 "Oh, you want Sue?" she asked.

Lon- don, who said recently in an ad- dress to tho Liberal Churchman's Conference: "I think every crim- inal condemned to death should be allowed to carry out the sentence on himself in his own way" Nearly every one has certain fears and aversions about the manner of his death. Personally, have always had a horror of electrocution and if I were compelled to so through this ordeal I would unhesitatingly choose to be shot. provided they did not blindfold me. think the criminal should be given tho bcne- fit of escaping these fears as much as possible.

Some people are especially sensi- tive to orris root or to certain anil line substances, and, as a result, suffer from eruptions, from asth ma, or hay-fever, following the use of such powder, or even when in the vicinity of people who have used them. Otherwise, there are slittle, if any, dangers in the com mon face powders now sold.
 The use of cosmetics is some- times attacked by purintanical peo- pie as an unnatural practict. On the other hand, it is also unnatural to wash off the natural oils of the skin with soap and water. Further more, modern conditions of civil. ization expose the skin tp all sort! of irritations which are in them selves unnatural, hence the use o1 face powder for protective pur. poses Is legitimate from any point of view.
 Tn fact, the use of powder is no longer confined to women, because practically alp men powder the face afters shaving to protect the irri- tated surface.

Paris Styles
By MARY KNIGHT

United Press Stan Correspondent
 Paris-(UP)-To be chic in the rain is an accomplishment of the newer generation.
 We used to wear our oldest rags and not care what we looked like. All that is different now. As Tar as the texture and appearance or our deluge clothing is concerned there is no difference between It and our other clothing.
 Every couturier here has his definite ideas about the smartness of raincoats. rain hats, rubbers, purses and gloves. Rubberized silk and chiffon make the sheerest coats and capes with insets of wa terproof velvet, crepe and satin. Bright buttons of metal, crystal and quartz run harmonious scales up and down the openings. Rtb- bon and feathers as hat trimming are rubberizcd and waterproofed in such manner as to leave you completely bewildered. Even little ostrich feathers with their delicate sprays can be copied in the you can't get t-me-wet materials.

The vast majority of substances used in face powders are harmless. There was time when lead ace tate and lead carbonate were found in face powders, but in this country at least the practice Is no longer common, if 1t exists at all. In Ger many, the use of lead salts in face powder has been prohibited for more than 40 years. Cases still oc- cur, however, in Japan where poor women still use lead acetate as a powder.

 Because of the increasing extent to which cosmetics are used daily by women throughout the world, 1t occurred to Dr Alice Carleton of Oxford to study their possible dan gers to human health and comfort. c The face powders available to- day include materials of various or- igins. Vegetable powders come from rice, wheat, corn flour. starch, acacia and tragacanth. Mineral powders come from chalk, tale, ka- olin, Magnesium carbonate, bis- muth nitrate or carbonate and zinc oxide. Various oils are used as perfumes; various aniline dyes are used to produce colorings. Orris root is frequently used to fix the powder.
