Dorothy Dix Says
Love Is the Unguessed Riddle and
Mystery of Life.

matter is not of their own volition,
and If they cease to care for each
other they have ceased to care, and
there is nothing they can do about
it. The magic they held for each
other is gone, the spell Of enchant-
ment broken, and they cannot love
because it is their obligation to love
each other.
Love is the strongest thing in the
world and the most fragile. 1t will
endure starvation, neglect, Ill treat
ment, poverty, want, degradation
and it will be killed by as little thing
as a three-day stubble of beard on a
face, cold cream and soiled kimonoS,
bad table manners or reading aloud.
I Owe is the most exalted altruism
and the most supreme selfish
ness 1t protects the beloved one
against everything but itself. A
mother will sacrifice herself for her
children. She will toll like a slave to
support them. She W. go hungry
that they may feast. She will wear
rags that they may have fine clothes
Then she will wreck their lives by
refusing to let them go where fortune
calls them because she cannot bear
to be parted from them, and by keep
ing them from marrying because she
wants to monopolize them.
Love makes women nag their hus-
bands and children to death, because
they are so anxious about them. It
makes hundreds work so hard to give
their families luxuries that they have
no time to give them little affection.
Love makes husbands and wives de-
stroy each other with jealousy. 1t is
the cause Of nearly every divorce.
Love blesses and it curses us. 1t
makes and 1t breaks us. And yet it
Is the thing we most desire.
Love is the unguessed riddle of life.

Difference Flavor Between Lines and Lemons Advantage
Daintiness S
Has Source
In Grooming
Demand Is for More
Than Immaculate
Cleanliness.
by LOIS LEEDS.


DAINTINESS demands more than
immaculate cleanliness of person
and clothes. A girl can be as clean
as soap and water can make her and
yet not be dainty. There must be
certain attention TO details, crisp
frills, straight heels, smooth cuticle
about the fingernails and, above all,
freedom from perspiration odors and
unsightly superfuous hair.
These aforementioned problems are
always a threat to daintineSs, but in
warm weather they become even more
so. Yet little forethought and care
will prevent embarrassment from
these sources.
Some sort Of anti-perspirant is E
necessary part Of every beauty kit.
There are liquids, powders, creams
and sticks for deodorizing perspiration
and there are lotions that check il
altogether in small areas like the
armpits for days at a time. These
preparations are as a rule harmless,
provided a reliable brand is used, but
there are individuals whose skins be-
come irritated from their use. These
people have what is called an "al-
lergy" for certain materials and must
either forego their use or be innoc-
ulated against them.
Whatever is used to control perspi-
ration 1t is essential to keep the skin
clean by frequent washing. Salt
water rinses are cleansing and de-
odorizing. Plenty Of soap and water
is required One bath daily is the
minimum requirement for Summer
time daintiness. Two or three baths
(showers or sponges) followed by a
change into fresh underwear and
frock will keep you feeling clean and
cool.
The problem Of hair on the arms
and legs becomes acute when shorts
and swim suits are to be worn. Some
girls are ashamed to appear in such
costumes. They are embarrassed, too,
to appear in clothes that conceal their
beauty blemish instead of wearing
what other girls wear.
There are various ways Of treating
hair on the limbs If it is not very
conspicuous. my best advice is to leave
it alone. If it is so dark that some
thing must be done about it, it may
be bleached or removed from time to
time. There are bleaching lotions
on the market for tightening these
hairs or you may use one-half table
spoonful of ammonia to six table
SDo0n f1IlS Of DerOXide of hydrogen
Beat it in a bowl and apply with
absorbent cotton. The hairs should
be washed before the APPLICATION to
remove any oil that may be present.
AS bleaching takes place only while
| the hairs are wet, they should be kept
wet for Is to 20 minutes. Use
| fresh mixture each time. This bleach
may be made into a paste by the ad-
dition of sufficient powdered pumice
or chalk. In this form it keeps moist
| longer and hence has more time to
act on the hairs.
| When bleaching is not satisfactory,
| the hair may be removed at home
with depilatory, wax, razor or
pumice The question Of permanent
removal Of hairs is a more serious
one. Consult your family physician
before undertaking it and follow his
advice as to the method and operator
to do the work Some methods are
injurious to the skin.
Underarm hairs should. Of course,
be removed rather than bleached.

Money, Key
To Power in
Child's Mind
Family Shopping Trip
May Halt Impulse
for Pilfering.
BY ANGELO PATRI.

MANY families are shocked to find
A'A one of the children taking money
from the purses or pockets of the other
members of the group. They at once
denounce the culpriJ, threaten him,
deplore his error, pray that he may
never repeat it and fear that he will.
Usually he does the very next time the
impulse seizeS him.
Pilfering is a very common habit In
children of the in-betWeen stage OF
growth, when they are no longer in
fants and not quite adolescent. They
feel they want to be big and powerful
and like grown-up people. Money
seems to be the road to power, SO they
take it.
These children are too young to
know what money means. They have
no notion of its value in terms OF
time and labor. They have not lived
long enough to have principles and
standards strong enough to forbid
them to take what is not theirs. They
are bundles of desires, ignorance and
appetites governed largely by i'm
pulses.
Punishment cannot do much to
change that situation. Education will
alter it and fix it on the proper
basis in the normal length of time,
along about full adolescence. Talking
does not help. Asking a child If
he does not know better and waiting
for him to say he does, gets nowhere.
One of the best ways we have
found to teach this sort Of child about
money is to take him along to do the
family marketing and shopping. Tell
him how much money there Is to be
spent and what it is to be spent for.
Let him stand by while the things
are bought and paid for, and let
him collect the slips for the record.
Once home, the slips are entered
in the account book and the total for
the purchases added up. After sew
eral such experiences he begins to
understand what this spending is all
about. That is the only way he can
learn with safety.
AS soon as he can buy some articles
without a grown person with him to
advise, let him do so. See that the
slips are filed in an envelope, the
amounts entered In the book, the
change correctly counted and re-
turned to the housekeeper Day by
day this experience with it's steadily
increasing responsibility teaches the
child about money.
He must have an allowance, no
matter how small. If child at
tends movies he is old enough to
have a separate allowance. Train
him how to use it. The movie money,
church money and set charges he
must put aside and the experience
teaches him the reason. But spend
ing is what he must experience before
saving. Saving is an adult notion
and before it can be set the child
must have his full experience in
spending.
Let him buy some candy, a ball
and such things as children must have
so he can spend happily without
guilty conscience. Then save for spe-
cial causes. Pilfering is caused by
ignorance and impulse and only edu-
cation and training can eradicate it.

The Old Gardener Says /:

The iris borer has come to be
bad pest in some gardens. Its
habit is to chew along the edges
of the young and tender leaves
at first. but it finally gets into
the root stock, where it does
much damage. The best time
to deal with the iris borer is
In June, for it is then that the
young caterpillars roam over the
foliage In a hungry condition.
The treatment suggested by the
American Iris Society is to apply
mixture of one part barium-
f1uosilicate dust and four parts
of sifted flour. The long name
Of the first part of the mixture
may look formidable, but the
material is available at seed
stores or drug stores under a
proprietary name. If it cannot
be obtained, arsenate of lead may
be substituted, being mixed with
flour in the same proportions
one to four. This mixture is
best busted on the plants with
a bellows or busting gun, but can
be applied through a bag of
coarse cheesecloth fastened to a
stick.

Party Mind
Puzzled by
New Duties
BY EMILY POST,

"DEAR MRS. POST-How does one
~ keeps strangers from coming in
to a club dance to which invitations
have been sent, but at which it would
be very easy for outsiders to get in?"
Answer-Include at the lower left
of the invitation the instructions
please present this invitation at the
door," and admit no one who is with
out this ticket of admission.
Dear Mrs. Post-While my sister
visited me gave a small tea in her
honor, after which most of my friends
entertained hsf. What are her obli-
cations now. and mine, also?"
, Answer-Your sister should have
paid a party call on each Of your
friends who showed any hospitality.
If she failed to do this before she left
town, theR she ought to write each of
them a note now, to thank them for
their kindness. In your turn you
would try to do something for some
one who comes to stay with them.
Dear Mrs. Post: I would like to
give a big party for prospective
bride, but there would be too many
people for my supply of linen and
napkins. Would it be very improper
for me to use pretty paper plates and
napkins? I hate to have to borrow
linen and china from my friends be-
cause both might so easily be dam
aged?"
Answer-If you live simply Gun
pretentiously), no one will expect you
to be able to supply large number
of any other kind. If your house is
conspicuously formal, then 1t Is better
to rent supplies from caterer.

"OR Summer mornings, or any
l. mornings, Winter, Fall, or
Spring. most women like the
L sort of practical little wash
frocks illustrated, to wear about the
house. Dresses for this purpose look
less and less like the traditional house
dress, as the years go on. They have
taken on a new dignity and chic, as
the attitude towards the home maker
has changed, from that of the house
hold drudge to that Of woman carry
ing on one Of the most important pro-
feSsions.
This frock is most interesting from
a style viewpoint The bodice is cut
with two points, almost like halter,
and then the sleeves are in one with
the deep yoke, which forms the greater
part of the back. This back portion,
and the sleeves may be of contrasting
material, although it is not compul-
sorry to have them so. However, 1t
gives a nice effect, blouse and skirt OF
some printed material percale, lawn,
gingham, or seersucker, and then the
sleeves and yoke, of white, or plain
colored fabric to match the back
ground Of the dress. The skirt has
inverted pleats at the side seams.

Each Holds Own Place
In Seasoning, Although
OF Equal Food Value
High Vitamin Content of Citrus Fruit Rec
ognized Many Years Ago by the Officers
of the British Navy.

shipping act by which every British
ship going to other countries where
lemons or lines could not be obtained,
was required to carry sufficient juice
to give ounce to every member Of
the crew daily. 1t was known that
in some mysterious way this juice
would prevent that dread of all sea-
faring men-scurvy. Not until re-
Gently, when the scientific world be-
came Unconscious, was the real
reason for this miraculous quality
aScertained; all citrus fruits were
found to be full of the special vitamin
that controls such diseases, and the
orange -juice-f -for-babies" campaign
Immediately was introduced.
Our markets nowadays have a
plentiful supply OF lines practically
all the year round. There are still
to be found the little round yellow
ones with the thin skin and delicious
flavor, but the most popular type at
the moment is the so-called Persian"
lime, a large green fruit, almost the
size of a lemon, covered with thick
Sh4Il dIl0 1ull VI juice.
*&
THE ways of employing lines and
their juice are many and varied
Try sprinkling honeydew melon with
powdered cinnamon and then squeeze
lime juice on top. The unusual flavor
will delight every one. Quarters of
lime may be used to garnish halves
of cantaloupe, as well as sprinkling
the juice over the melon just before
serving.
Vary your morning drink Of the
Juice of half a lemon in hot water
by substituting the juice Of one lime.
Lime ice made just like lemon water
ice, with the addition Of little pale
green coloring matter, will make a
delicious and refreshing Summer des-
sert. Lime juice and pineapple Juice
may combine to make cooling sher-
bet and lime juice sprinkled over
freshly sliced watermelon lends added
delicacy of flavor.
AS for "long, tall drinks"-there
the possibilities of lime juice are le-
gion. Used alone, with plain or car
donated water. the fresh fruit makes a
splendid limeade; in combination with
iced tea, iced mate, orangeade. lemon
ade, or other fruit juice beverages the
lines blend smoothly, and enhance
the cooling effect.
T MUST admit, howver, that where
sea food is concerned. especially,
have never found satisfactory sub
stitute for our good reliable old friend
the lemon! In salad dressings also,
the lemon reigns supreme. There is
a definite place in every household
for both lines and lemons, and the
proper use of the two will add much
to the success of the housekeeper's S
culinary efforts. Study the fine differ
ence in flavor between the two fruits.
and use them with Imagination and
skill to produce unusual and delicious
effects.

tries abroad-but not generally fea-
tured on American tables.
This is great pity, for lines have
delicate, tart flavor that lends I'M
usual charm to our food and drink.
They are not expensive, and their
food value and vitamin rating is as
high as the other citrus fruits in pro-
portion TO their size.
Following the English trend, years
ago such delicacies as picked lines
and "lmalade" (pinch-hitter for
marmalade) were imported into this
country. as was bottled lime Juice,
but fresh lines were not to be thought
Of. Who has forgotten the woes of
spoiled Amy. In Little Women" when
discovered by her schoolmaster in the
act Of boarding picked lines in her
desk-and the subsequent chastise-
ment by ruler on the palm OF her
hand?
THE lime itself, which is related to
the citron, originally, grows on a
shrub resembling that bearing lemons
except that the lime-tree has a
tendency to be more prickly and
spreading. The fruit is a native of
Southeastern Asia. where for centu-
ries it has been highly valued for its
juice in the preparation of cooling
drinks. On this continent, Florida,
Mexico, the West Indies and Cali
fornia all contribute to our lime supply,
both with the fresh fruit and with
juice.
In this latter commodity there are
two types Of juice which are prepared
and shipped. The fruit is gathered
when ripe, taken TO the mills, sorted
washed and subjected to two squeez-
ings. Two-thirds of the total Juice
is extracted in the first squeezing
this Is strained at once and exported
as raw juice, to be used in the
preparation of lime juice cordial and
drinks.
The second squeezing. together with
the juice extracted by a subsequent
squeezing in press. is strained and
evaporated to make concentrated
Juice. which IS intended for use in
the manufacture of citric acid.
