Bright flowers dot the way these days.
 Bright lipsticks take the place of dull red ones.
 The new makeup calls for clear, bright reds. They have youth in them, for the oldest face, provided they are just the right red for given person.
 Never pick a lipstick in the dark. Practically anything else may be given the benefit of the doubt. But not lipstick! The wrong one makes you look so very artificial. Leave that to the new hats-you'll have to look your very best to get away with some of them!
 Do lipstick the inside of your lips, please. Nothing looks grim mer than a lady whose mouth in repose is perfect but when she opens her lips. there's bluish- gray line just beyond the red that reveals her true self. Lick your lips about a bit, when you finish doing them, then smooth off the edges. That's the only way to make them look a bit natural.
 Remember. if your upper lip is really too full, don't lipstick it quite to it's upper edge. Go easy on the entire lipsticking process. If your mouth is much to owide, then taper the lower and upper edges a speck and just smooth 1t with your finger to the edge. not using the lipstick itself on them.
 There are new lipsticks that are waterproof and last the whole day through. Why not try them? NET: New Rouge.

THE PROBLEM OF MARY'S
 BREAKFAST

I am sure that many mothers of adolescent daughters will sym pathize with Mrs Johnson when they hear of her difficulties with 12-year old Mary. Mrs Johnson knows something about adolescent boys, since Bill is four year older than his sister, but Mary is be- ginning to present problems quite l different from Bills.
 For instance there's the question of appetite. Ever since Bill be- gan to shoot up into a young man Mrs Johnson's only difficulty with his appetite has been to find enough for him to eat! Bill eats more than his father, and needs 1t too. But Mary's appetite has fallen off sadly during the past few weeks. Tn fact she's been so fussy over her food that Mrs Johnson made a special visit to my office one day this week to tell me about it and ask my advice.
 The chief difficulty seems to be breakfast. Mary wants to start the day fortified only with a glass or orange juice, and turns up her nose at cereal or toast or bacon. NlIb JOHISOI IlS Htly lcclo tidI Mary needs a good, hearty break fact. But as she declared, sit ting there in my office, arguing is no use; it only leads to unpleasant ness for everybody concerned. "I don't know what to do with the child," she concluded; "I suppose she's got some foolish notion in her head about not getting fat, or something"
 I admitted that that might partly account for Mary's attitude toward food, but I assured Mrs Johnson that a finicky appetite was quite common among ado1escent girls. Its too bad" said, that just at the time when they are growing rapidly and need both quantity and quality of food to keep up their strength, many girls do lose their appetites. However" I con- tinued, that's one method of ap- peal that usually works with girls much better than with boys." What's that?" asked Mrs Johnson eagerly. "Vanity," I replied. "The desire to be good looking and at tractive. If Mary is really cut ting down on food in order to keep

 he had told her 1t could do? Eighty
 miles an hour? Perhaps that was why 1t was lying out at the side of the road now. She thought of
 Betty and Van Bannister hurtling along the dark country road at break k-neck speed. That was the sort of thing that gave Betty a thrill"
 It wasn't right though and 1t didn't look right. Why wasn't Rolf with them? Janet remembered the day Betty came to the station to see her mother off for Silver Bay. She had talked about meeting Rolf for lunch but instead it was Ban
 mister whom she had met. Was Betty, besides being strong -willed
 and selfish. a cheat? She decided to put the whole thing out of her mind. She said
 suddenly, "It's funny, Jeff, but I'm
 hungry
 He laughed. "Thats certainly a coincidence! I was thinking the
 same thing myself. Well, we'll stop at the next barbecue" Fifteen minutes later he halted the car before a brightly lighted frame building. A boy in a white coat and cap brought them sand wiches of tender, delicious chicken
 and steaming cups of coffee. "Such food!" Janet exclaimed.

Moved by an impulse which she did not try to analyze, Nancy went to the telephone. She would call Arnold Page. He might take the call any way that he wanted to. She would take her cue from him. If he wanted to be friendly, or coolly impersonal, or if he re- membered.
 The operators voice answered. Nancy gave the number. Grace looked up in surprise. Then she smiled.
 Nancy laughed. "You wonder how I know it, don't you? So do I. It iI't his old number. But l looked it up once and it stuck. Funny, wasn't it?"
 Nancy could hear the telephone ringing at the other end of the line. She waited. At last a woman's voice answered. His housekeeper, she supposed.
 May I speak to MT Page, please?"
 "To. whom? the woman asked.
 "Mr Page Arnold Page"
 "Mr Page? But there isn't any one here by that name."
 Isn't this his residence?"
 "Goodness no. This isn't the right number" The woman hung up. Nancy made slight grimace as she put down the telephone.
 "Wait till I see if I had the wrong number after all," she said "I probably did. Isn't that funny .. I've been remembering the other one and all the time it may have been wrong" She leafed through the telephone book. "Here it is! I had the letters twisted. put the seven in front of the four Well shall I@try again? Her voice wasn't vibrant. The joy was gone.
 Grace, too, had lost some of heI inner excitement. 'I don't know Nancy. And yet if you don't, you'll wish that you had. Suspense and uncertainty are the cruelest things in the world. Why not try-once more?'
 "All right" Nancy gave the number to- the operator and wait ed. She heard the distant bell ring ing in the old stone residence

 "Im sorry but he isn't. Is there a message?" the low tones asked.
 'Is this his housekeeper Nan cy queried.
 "No, I'm not, but I'll be glad to take any message that you have.
 Never mind. It wasn't at all important" Nancy answered. But
 will he be in presently"
 "I don't think so. He is sailing for Southampton Wednesday and he's taking the midnight train to New York. He is having his ags sent to the station so l doubt if he'll be back.
 "Oh yes. I understand. Thank you"
 Nancy replaced the receiver. She turned to Grace and her lips curl ed little bitterly although she tried to laugh. "The curtain has rung down on that scene. He's sail ing for Europe. I was foolish, wasn't I? well, no one but you will ever know I thought about him. It won't be difficult to forget now. Knowing that he is gone can put him out of my mind. It is the uncertainty that hurts |. thinking that I might right wrong if I knew the correct moves to make and not knowing them. That can hurt dreadfully. .. If I knew definitely that I didn't matter, could turn to other things.

 She stopped suddenly. The tele- phone was ringing.

What The Doctor Says BY DR. s. J. CRUMBINE, GENERAL EXECUTIVE AMERICAN CHILD HEALTH ASSOCIATION

slender, you can assure her that human skeletons have gone out of | fashion, and that nowadays girls are eating wisely in an effort to be neither too fat nor too thin. And tell her, too, that an insuffi- cient diet is one of the surest ways to ruin a schoolgirl complexion. If she wants to be sallow and suf- fer from a muddy, blotchy skin, let her go on starving herself. But if she wants to be sallow and suf- fer from a muddy, blotchy skin, let her go on starving herself. But if she wants the charm of red lips and cheeks without the doubtful aid of the cosm etic counter, she'd better stick faithfully to the milk and fruit and vegetables, and the hot, nourishing meals that she gets at home"
 Mrs Johnson looked relieved. "I'll try it, doctor" she said; it'll be much better than bounding Mary to eat just because its good for her. But since we're on the sub ject of breakfast, what kind of a breakfast does she need?" "The kind you always have" I replied; i; "orange juice, cereal with plenty of milk, slice of bacon with per- haps an egg, buttered toast and q glass of milk. And you can ring the changes with fresh or stewed fruit, boiled or poached eggs, an occasional waffle with honey or syrup and so on. The important thing to remember is that Mary is growing fast and that she is begin ming to develop physically from a child into an adult, and that she needs both adequate food and ade- quate rest in order to stand the strain of this growth and develop | ment."

 CHILDREN

All parents should know a cer- tain thing, important in bringing up children.
 The mind has to be satisfied.
 When a child thinks up some- thing to do, we call 1t impulse. Block that impulse and what hap pens? The mind does not give up, even though the child at the time appears content enough to stop what he has been doing. The child and his mind are two sep arate things in a way. His mind works without a "by your leave. It goes on changing, planning, go- ing ahead, or going back, mucn as though it were flower growing in a flower pot on top of his shoul- ders.
 Flower Keeps Growing. When the child stops theShower keeps on. You can put a thtmble on the end of one of the tender branches, but that won't matter. The branch will bend, with a twist in it, and turn around and grow in another direction, that is all. It won't be satisfied to stop-it can't stop. It has to go on developing until nature says. "This is the end of this branch. It is finished"
 We can compare every "im- pulse" of a child's mind to a branch in the flower, Once start ed it has to go on to the finish. If not it will finish itself in some other way. Interrupted impulse IS not a good thing in most circum- stances.
 Let us take a child who wants | to take an old clock apart. He gets the screw driver and sets about it, all keyed up with curi- osity. Just when his interest is at it's height, his mother comes in and says, You can't do that, son."
 Inuuisitiveness Baked. "But it's just an old alarm clock I found up in the attic! 1tssno good. I want to learn about | clocks"
 "Just the same I call it de- structive. Take it back. she has put a thimble on the | tip of a branch just starting to sprout, but containing the force and life-germ of all sprouts. And by nipping or trying to nip it, she has only added force and strength to the impulse.
 Now Johnny isn't through with clocks. His mind inso satisfied. The curiosity once incipient is now a full fiedged torrent of deter imitation. Interference has only | strengthened it. One day when his mother is out, (notice the twist now) he locks his door and takes down his own mantel clock. He takes out every bolt, screw and wheel. His curi- osity has been satisfied, but some thing alse has been born, secre- tiveness and cunning. His mind has resorted to subterfuge in or der to find a relief for that driv- ing urge of curiosity. The thim- ble did not work.
 Parents: Watch Your VctOcs!
 There are hundreds of impulses. Curiosity is merely one of them. But each time an impulse is stop ped by outside means, not only is the impulse strengthened but 1t bears unhealthy progeny. This is why we parents need to choose only the absolutely neces- sary thing to veto. We cannot. of course, give the children their own way always. They do go off at tangent sometimes. But the direct honest older mind is never the outcome of thwarted young CT mind. The parent who con- stantly says mo" or interrupts in- nocent-enough acts too often can- not expect a fortnight mind to be the result in later years.

Jellied salads are particularly appealing during the first warm spring days when appetites are inclined to be as tickle as the weather. More than this, jelliedi salad is very often a means toward economy. making good use of left over fruits and vegetables. The jelly acts as an calender and in many instances makes 1t possible to use incredible small amounts that might otherwise be wasted.
 There are innumerable varla- tions to the jellied salad. .Indl- yidual molds, ring molds to be filled with other salad materials, large molds to be garnished and served by the hostess, the salad dressing added to the jellied mix ture, the jellied mixture used to fill small tomatoes-all these ways make it possible to vary jellied salads invitingly.
 Whether the added material be meat, vegetable or fruit, the f0un- dation jell yshould be pleasantly tart. Even the dessert salad with a whipped cream dressing must pc piquant rather than sweet. Lemon jelly is suitable for fruit and a dash of vinegar will be found to be a vast improvement in meat and vegetable salads.
 Pineapple and carrot salad Is a refreshing combination that is healthful and economical and sea- sonal.
 Pineapple and Carrot Salad
 One and one-half tablespoons granulated gelatin, 4 tablespoons cold water, 1-2 cut boiling water 1 cup orange juice, 4 tablespoons lemon juice, salt and sugar, cup grated carrot, 1 cup diced fresn pineapple or 1 cup crushed canned pineapple. , ,.r
 Soften gelatin in cold water for five minutes. Add boiling wa ter and stir until dissolved. when cool add fruit juices and saI.; When cool add fruit juices ana salt. When jelly begins to stiffeh add grated carrot and pineapple, Turn into a mold and let stand on ice until thoroughly chilled ana firm. Unmold on a bed of cress or lettuce and garnish with tiny balls of cream or cottage cheese.

No one can quite under stand himself. how he got that way, why he has certain traits and tendencies, without knowing his heredity, because exactly one-half of every cell in his body and brain came from his mother and the other half from his father and they got their bodies and brains in the same way from their ances- tors. still further a knowledge of one's heredlty gives him a much better idea whom it is safe to marry, as 1t gives him some line at least on the probable qualities of his children.
