Sister Mary:s Kitchen
BY MARY E. DAGUE NEA Service Stan Writer

"Aw. donwanna eat any break fast!"
 In far too many homes that whining plaint starts the day, voiced by the child who is finicky about food. Pretty often this is mothers own fault, whether she knows it or not. Then chances to one, half the trouble is because either breakfast has degenerated into such a hurried meal that the child's appetite Is taken away by a fear that he is going to be late for school, or else the whole is planned and served so carelessly and unattractively that nobody who was not starving would want it.
 about that, and something can. hearty breakfast eating by our young.
 First look to the bedroom. Careless ventilation and the wrong bed coversr the night before may make child quite indiffer- ent to his breakfast. a.,..,.,..
 Allow 15 Minutes Leeway
 Be sure to allow plenty of time for eating breakfast and allow at least fifteen minutes between the time he finishes his meal and the time he must start to school.
 Set the table with fresh linen or doilies and gay china. Don't get into a menu rut, either.
 Use the less acid fruits alter nately with stewer fruits to make a change in the first course. To- mato juice pleasantly chilled and carefully seasoned with lemon juice may take the place of orange juice occasionally.
 Cereals may be of the cooked or ready-to-serve variety. Serve with plenty of rich milk or cream and make full use of the wide variety of grains.
 Something hot aids digestion and may be provided by cup of hot milk or cocoa made with milk if ready-to-serye cereal is used
 Eggs may be cooked in num- berless ways. Or creamed meat or creamed vegetable on toast with a garnish of crisp bacon makes an acceptable warm dish.
 Have the toast crisp so the child will chew it well. It's a good idea to serve toast with cooked cereal and mullins or rolls with ready-to-serve cereal.

Take the simple matter of bas-- sinets," she explains. Would you believe that it was practically inn possible to find one for Carola that didn't have plaster roses or bows all over it? I finally took simple round wicker basket with three loops for a handle, had stand made for it and trimmed it sn calico. That gave me the idea for bassinet on wheels which is now being made by manufacturer according to my plans. The bas- sinet is of woven fabric. perfectly simple, and there are wheels so that the crib may be rolled out on 3 the terrace or front door step without any trouble"
 Because of her difficulty in hold ing a wet slippery little body with one hand while feeling about blindly for towels and powder with the other, Miss Karascz has also cerated a new kind of dress in gtable for baby with flat top upon which the child may be laid. while underneath are racks for towels and trays that swin out and hold toilet articles. Moreover, when the child grows older, the dressing table may be fitted with a top and he or she may use it for a desk.
 Vigorous Colors Urged
 If you take Miss Karasz' advice. you will not limit your nursery colors to pink and blue. This dec- believes that by do- ing 90. you might seriously handi- cap your child. .....

 Have you any idea what sort of an outfit she was wearing when she left?"
 "Yes, I thing she was wearing her black dress with the red trim ming. She was, wearing black shoes and stockings and she had little black hat-one of the closc-fitting kind that pull down over one side of the head. It was trimmed with white."

careful, the situation will settle down as have described. And this is a pity.
 Often women of certain natures have to take regular course in getting interested in their children and their affairs. It is not always easy to tear ones self away from too-selfish pursuit and discover the acres of diamonds right behind the front door. But it pays if, one takes the trouble to find out.
 Children and their keen inter- est in hobbies and fun can supply a deep satisfaction not found in supper parties. They have a love- ly humor, too. as a rule. Home life and become more of a game and less of routine. At any rate. all they want is to belong, to feel that they count, that they are as important as the Smiths or the Joneses.

 Miss Karasz has theory that children should have all the variety possible in what they see and eat and do in order that their taste may be formed early. Children brought up on the same food all the time she says, can never ap- preciate variety. And so, while Carola is not allowed to eat every thing, she IS allowed to taste everything!
 Miss Karasz has designed not only her child's nursery but all the rest of the rooms in her coun- try house. The house itself is of wood painted red with blue trim and looks like a Norwegian farm house.

 "Oh yes."
 "You're certain of that?"
 "Of course. This is where she lives: why wouldn't her mail come here?"
 I'm asking you if you're cer- tain," Griff said. ..Why, yes. I've brought her up mail quite few times when I've been coming in and have looked in the mail box"
 Any idea who her mail came from ?''
 "N-n-n-n-o, can't say that I have. It seems to me there have been business letters-that is, let ters with printed return addresses on the envelopes. I haven't notic- ed."

Don't let anyone tell you that you can't change your type to suit the occasion. Just as screen stars plan certain cultures and makeup to wear with extremely tailored clothes and something different. to go with formal costumes, so can you get yourself up to harmonize with your background.
 No sensible business woman would think of going to the office with fluffy curls about her face, makeup on her eyes and a heavy coat of llpstick on her mouth. First. she'd be afraid that her boss would get the idea she wasn't very efficient and, second, it would be far too much trouble to keep the coiffure neat and the makeup in order.
 A smart girl knows instinctively that a simple hair dress and min- imum of expertly applied makeup is best with the tailored frocks and suits she wears in her office. She makes the most of her beauty, of course, but she. does 1t in a rather restrained manner.
 However, she isn't likely to maintain this restraint when she slips into an evening gown with formal accessories. She knows that now is her chance to go in for d coiffure that is one hundred per cent flattering. If it's hard to keep in place. She uses eye makeup, too. Something she'd never dream of wearing to the office.
 Every woman should have two distinct ways of dressing her hair and making up her face. Don't be unnatural. but do try to have your personal beauty as we'll as your clothes harmonize with the setting in which you happen to be.

 Congenital Hydrocele
 My baby, 4 months old, was born with hydrocele. My doctor instructed me how to keep it sup ported and am following his in- structions. But my husbands s mother insists something should be done and my husband wants to take the baby to another doctor <. (Mrs EsN. R.) Answer-Too much mother-in- law! Usually congenital hydroce!e disappears spontaneously by the fourth or fifth month, especially if it is properly supported by truss or as your doctor instructed. If it has not disappeared by the sixth month, simple puncture with a needle and withdrawal of the fluid will cure it.

Lips Get Chapped and Cracked

Lips Get Chapped and Cracked Formerly lips were interesting Interesting, l mean, to gentleman and sometimes even to a physician. But to-day all lips evidently come from the five and ten. Even when n the nails and hair are not done up to match, the lips often startle and sometimes arrest the passing. crowd. That seems to be the Main object, and so it is on the Back street.
 Cosmetic lipstick is not only un- objectionable from the viewpoint of hygiene, provided it contains no poisonous ingredient, but it is de- sirable as a protection to the lips in some circumstances. For in- stance when one is exposed to in of lipstick will prevent painful call chilitls, or cheilitis, which is Greek for inflammation of the lip, and that's good sign we don't we'd get as far by calling it just bad chapping of the lips, only that wouldn't bring more than ti UT lWO, WASlCdS III olSCh ~ is worth five.
 The habit of moistening the lips seems to excite chapping. Better to apply lipstick or even some simple salve or plain petrolatum to re- lieve dryness of the lips.
 Tincture of benzoin is an old reliable remedy for prevention and relief of chapping of the lips. It should be applied every few hours, best with a camels hair brush and allowed to dry on the lip without rubbing It leaves thin protec- tive soothing film.
 In some cases of chapping or chilitis the lips crack and these painful Assures heal slowly, be- cause of the constant movements of the lips, especially in the W. K. bla-bla sex. When such crack or Assure develops, it should be carefully cloansed of any lipstick or salve that has been used on the lips, then dried and painted with coat or two of flexible collodion, while the lip is held between the fingers so that the Assure is closed l Apply the collodion up to the mois, border of the lip. Of course it will not stock to the mucous membrane | inside the vermillion. The collo- dion dressing should be renewed as soon as it loosens. Usually this enables the crack to heal in day or two.
 Herpes ("cold sore') and sun burn are not uncommon causes of sore lips. The healing of ray spots (ulcers), Assures or cracks in such cases is best effected in the manner above described. Bear in mind that man with brok- en leg doesn't get well so quick ly if he persists in running mara thon races or dancing the rumba.
