FeU Windows

Have a minimum of doors and
windows. This saves expense
and makes better use Of space.
Extra windows mean another
frame, sash, screen, shutter and
more hardware and additional
labor.
Avoid too many kinds of
windows. Use windows all of
one size as far as possible.
Use stock details, holdings,
windows, cabinets instead of
special designs. Have one Chin
ney, if the house is small, to
take both heater and fireplace
flues.
Have one stairway. A second
one for the maid may be de-
sirable if her room is on the
second floor, but it is hardly
justified in a seven or eight
room house. A simple stairway
means less expensive framing.
It is economical Of space to
run the basement stairs under
those of the second floor.

bathrooms back to back and
over the kitchen which means
only one soil stack and will
save run of supply and waste

Use standard lengths of
framing timbers. Floor joists
come in even foot lengths in
multiples of two. If these d.
mansions are kept in mind in
planning room sizes, the labor
Of cutting is saved.
Stress proportion and color
instead Of ornament and elabor-
alton. Have no applied decora.
ton, make necessary things do
the work. Cute effects waste
space. Irregularity Of plan and
elaborate ornamentation make
expense and are poor design.

Delayed Marriage

"This year light began to
dawn for us both. I had a raise
and so had she, and her boss
agreed to let her keep her job
after we were married. Then
her mother had a stroke and my
girl had to take her away to an
aunt's ranch in the west. She
expects to be gone till October,
and she was obliged to give up
her job.
This, of course, has delayed
our marriage. Before she left,
Mary, with that beautiful unself-
iShneSs which marks everything
she does, told me she didn't
want me to be lonely while she
was gone. So, rather against
my better judgment, was
turned over to her friend
Shirley.
"Shirley is a siren and always
has troops of men around her.
The first evening I spent with
her she fascinated me COM
pletely. All the old standards
and lOyalties went into the dis
cards.
81 don't approve of Shirley; I

time, Mary writes to me daily,
and I feel like a sneak. And
something must have crept into
my letters, for Mary is begin
ming to wonder how things are
going with me.
81 am honestly puzzled by this
turn of events. 1 don't want to
give up Mary, but I feel utterly
disloyal. And 1 don't want to
stop seeing Shirley, because
there is an ecstatic madness in
her society. For the first time
in my life I understand how
men commit crimes of pas

Beauty
Skin
From Sun
BY DONNA GRACE

During the first few days Of
our summers outing we are
very careful to put on creams
and lotions and wear large
brimmed hats to protect our
skins from sunburn, but after
a week or two We grow tired
of these precautions, and just
let the skin take care of itself.
We seem to find it boring to
give ourselves so much extra
care, so the creams and oils are
left at home and the result is
a dried, rough skin or a pain
full sunburn.
The skin is not nearly so
sensitive at this time of the
year as it was in the spring
and early summer, but it will
always need protection from
the sun and wind.
When there is a dryness that
ruins a smooth makeup, you
may correct it in one treatment
or with a good thorough facial
at any beauty salon. Your home
treatment may be of several
varieties, but the following is
always good:
Scrub the face we'll with
plenty of soap and tepid water,
then rinse it well, pat it dry,
and use a hot oil mask or
massage. The oil mixture is:
/ ounce of castor oil
u ounce of mineral oil
5 drops of oil of pine
After a good oil massage use
a cleansing cream to remove
the excess oil. Tissues are used
to remove every bit of the oil
and cream, and the makeup
base is applied and blended
with the finger tips.

Invitation For
Birthday
BY MRS. CORNELIUS

BEECKMAN
"Dear Mrs. Beeckman:
II am planning to have q
small gathering to celebrate my
"Sweet Sixteenth" birthday. /
would like to know how the in
vitations should be wOrded. 1t
is to be in the afternoon.
&C."
There are two ways Of word
ing this kind of invitation. One
is to say that it is in celebration
Of your birthday; the other is
not to mention that fact. Some
people prefer not to mention
the fact that it is a birthday
party, but a sixteenth birthday
is such an important one that
you may wish to mention this
fact. Your invitation might
read:
Dear Mary:
Mother is giving me a party
to celebrate my sixteenth birth
day on Tuesday, the first Of
October, and we would both be
very happy If you will come.
It is to be at 3 o'clock, at our
home. Please say you'll be
there-it wouldn't be q real
party to me otherwise!

tains a slim, perfectly cut black

around for one of those wide

multicolored embroidered jewels,
and your dress will look like

Use COlander

Whenever there are berries Of
any kind to wash place them in
a colander. Then place an alu-
minum perforated cork (the
kind used in bottles for sprin-
king clothes) on the cold water
faucet. This makes many fine
streams which penetrate and
cleanse the berries more thor
oughly and they will not be
crushed. This is also an excel
lent way to wash vegetables
such as spinach and lettuce.

DR.. Clendening lows.
How will he stand the test?
It is a frightening thought, but
also an ennobling one-a stimu-
lus for all of his parents and
well-WisherS.
Certainly he should have every
chance to do it well. His body,
as we'll as his mind, will be test
ed.
Now, I am not one Of those
who thinks that the little fell
low should be overhauled like
an automobile about to take a
journey, before going to school.
Things to Remember
If he is plainly healthy, with
a wholesome mind and under
standing, delighting in play and
activity, I certainly do not
think it is necessary to send
him to jury Of specialists in
dentistry, and nose and throat
ing, and heart and lungsery,
and eyes and earsery, and
everything else.
Lots of us went to school
before the word "orthodontia"
was invented, and some of us
did very well. Not that these
fellows are not useful in their
place and when their time
comes-but it seems to me
sometimes we fuss too much
with the machine.
But there are some things I
think most evidently should be
remembered for the little fel-
low before he starts his first
day in school. Your family
physician will give you all the
advice you need about special
treatments.
First, let's be sure he can see
and hear we'll. He has never
had these senses really tested
in his baby days. No one would
notice if he were near-sighted;
he himself would not know
what it means. Now he has
to hear questions distinctly and
begin to decipher letters and
words.
Perhaps he has a slight eye
defect or is just a little under
normal in hearing. And he
might go and fall behind in
classes and nobody understand
why, with his bright, eager
brain.
New Contacts
Then, let us remember his
many new human contacts. He
has been comparatively alone,
up to now. Suddenly he is
thrown with several hundred
children. Some of them may be
just coming down with a con-
tagious disease.
Some come from households
where there has been diphtheria.
They may, all unwittingly, so far
as they or their parents are con-
cerned, be carrying around some
Of the germs in their own
mouths or Threats.
So let us immunize the little
fellow to diphtheria, typhoid
fever and smallpox, perhaps
whooping cough, before we send
him off.
We will discuss details in the
following articles this week.

JUST ONE DATE

"Dear Miss Fairfax:
1--WE were such good friends
all during our high school days,
and this vacation when he
came back from college he
called and invited me out. We
went to dine at a delightful
little restaurant, and sat talk
ing until it was very late, and I
suggested we'd better go home.
I told him I'd enjoyed every
minute.
"He promised to call the fol-
lowing afternoon. but did not,
nor did he send any word. When
we met 1 did not ask him why
he broke the date, and I feel
very unhappy. / hear Of him
being at q swimming pool with
another girl, and / just want to
cry. I often feel like writing q
note or phOning, but I don't
know what to say.
DISAPPOINTED"
AS you and this boy have been
in school together and are such
old friends, you might give him
the benefit of the doubt. He
may have sent you some word
about the broken date which
never reached you. Why not
invite him to call, or arrange
to have some little party and
include him, if you wish to make
It more impersonal?
