Babies Are Bright

She didn't get it. The nurses
tiptoed to the door, diagnosed
the situation correctly and went
away again. After a few nights
Emile gave up her demonStra-
ton, since it did not get her
what she wanted. She learned
with more difficulty than her
sisters, but still she learned
the good habit of going to sleep
promptly and quietly when it is
time for her to do so.
If her cry, even once, had won
her the attention she craved,
she would have repeated it
nightly. Her better behaved
sisters probably would have
watched proceedings and de-
cided-babies are quite bright
enough to make such decisions
that if Emile could get away
with it, so could Yvonne, An
nette, Cecile, Marie.
Finish the picture for your
selves-a nursery of five babies
bowling enthusiastically, at the
top of their lungs, while two or
three nurses tried to walk the
floor with them!

Needless Crying

Yet even one little boy or girl,
In the average home, can make
a small nuisance of himself or
herself if permitted to acquire
that common and pertinacious
bad habit of crying to be taken
up. It is a bad habit which can
disrupt the work and rest pro-
grams of parents. besides being
a constant nervous strain and
breaking up their sleep.
The crying child's own weil-be-
ing differs, since his nerves are
continually excited and what
should be his own generous al
1owance of sleep is continually
curtailed and disturbed.
This particular bad habit IS
of such frequent occurrence and
so troublesome in the nursery
that I have dwelt with some
detail on the necessity for pre-.
venting it's formation.
But positive habit training IS
even more important, and the
good habits babies should learn
will be described in forthcom'
ing articles.

Going to Bed

For example, when they were
about Z months old, Emile,
whom the nurses often have de-
scribed as the "prima donna" OF
the five, did her best to contract
the bad habit of crying when
she was put to bed for the night.
The babies, at 6 p. M, have
had their dinner and their after
noon sponge-off. In clean night
gowns, they are tucked into their
smooth beds, with the covers
pinned down tight so that they
will be warm during the night,
even with windows open. The
lights are snapped out, the door
is closed, and the babies are left
to go to sleep by themselves.
Four little girls were in the
habit of composing themselves
for slumber without a murmur.
Emile got it into her head that
If she whimpered and walled

pick her up, talk to her. Emile,
in short, wanted the spotlight.

Dogwood is native from
Canada way down into Mexico.
The white variety is the hardest;
but all kinds are easily grown.
Some varieties are pure glisten-

Dolores Del Rio has a gor-
geous skin-dark, rich and with

vent devotee of skin oils. Her
skin, fabricated daily by mas
sage, is cleansed and nourished
at night by creams. She be-
lieves strongly in long sun
baths, providing one replenishes
the oils that are baked out by
the sun.
Very dry or sensitive skin
usually requires more than one
cream. In fact, for proper
fabrication and protection, these
conditions often call for three
creams. So it delights me to
tell you about a cosmetic in
novation that has just reached
your counter.
This is a large jar which
contains three essential creams,
a vegetable oil cleansing
cream, a rich penetrating
nourishing cream which, by
the way, is excellent for wrin.

foundation for makeup which
also serves as a protection
against the elements.
So with such a supply of
cream nestled in your dressing

Beauty
Give Dry Skin
Right Care
BY JULIET SHELBY

Your skin can look its love.
Hest at this time of the year,
if you give it intelligent external
care. Don't sit wishing for a
beautiful complexion; get busy
and do something about that
skin which is showing the raw.
ages of a long and busy winter.
After a thorough cleansing,
proper fabrication is perhaps the
most important consideration
in the care of the skin.
So many women with dry and
tender skin find it difficult to
keep the texture smooth and
transparent. Sometimes a
small, hard red rash, resembling
prickly heat, is nothing more
than a very dry skin calling for
help. A few days of cream

The Regency, as you prob
ably know, refers to the Re
gency of Queen Victoria. The
furniture of the time was light,
graceful, carrying over many
of the characteristics Of the
old makers, but considerably
newer, too. Some of the fea-
lures are the same you'll find
in the French furniture Of the
Directoire and Empire, and
some reminds us just a little
of Duncan Phyfe.
Delicate Lines
Lines are graceful and rather
delicate, in fact are sometimes
described as sensitive" Deco
ration was used a good deal.
Many pieces were painted or
lacquered. Combinations of
natural wood and painting were
used, and often in a room
you'd find fruitwood mixed with
WOOQ painted DlaCk.
Decorations were painted on,
too, usually in leaf motif. Black
and gold was a favorite color
combination, and the upholstery
often had gold in it, too. Fine
satin damaSkS were the favored
fabrics of the time.
Originals Scarce
English Regency, though hard
to find in the original, is being
copied and reproduced today by
fine furniture makers. We have

Lies hidden where times

Has no more meaning than the

Once pinned against my hair.
So, after other years go by,
New hopes may bloom for me,
New laughter on my lips may

Fresh promise I may see.
