Says DR.. S. ]. Crumbine, National
Authority on Child Health:
'Tf your child is fussy about
his food, why is it? No doubt
he began life, like other babies,
with a proper appreciation of
his meals.
"The first time a newborn
baby feels hunger, he doesn't
like the feeling. He squirmS
about, doubles up his legs and
cries. Then he is fed and at
once all those queer sensations
disappear, and he is comfortable
again. So the first pleasure in
his life is due to the soothing
effect Of food, and he comes to
have a very favorable opinion
Of it. How can you, as a
mother, manage SO that your
child will never lose that point
Of view?
"AS your baby grows and takes
new foods, you can help him to
like them. Begin with just =

Waitress

Dear Mrs. Beeckman:>
Will you please tell me the
correct manner in which to get
the attention of a person serving
one in a restaurant?
I was dining with two gentle
men in a restaurant and one
of them addressed the waitress
by calling her Miss" The
other gentleman stated that the
correct way of addressing a
waitress was to address her as
waitress.
I contended that neither was
right and that the proper thing
to do was to wait until one got
the eye of the person serving
and motioning to her. Will you
kindly let us know who is right?
N.
The best way, as you say, IS
to wait until we have caught
the eye of the waitress and then
motioning to her to come to us;
but sometimes, very often. as
you know, this means too long
a wait if we are in a hurry.
And so we may correctly say,
Waitress" to get her attention.

What could be more appro-
pirate for a May Day beauty
special than the true, fragrant
essence of violets in a rich toilet
water and a sachet?
The modest little violet is no
longer doomed to blush unseen.
It has blossomed out this spring
as a smart" flower, and it's
earthly woodland fragrance has
become the rage.
The lovely violet scent, the
breath of spring. is a marvellous
antidote to fatigue and general
lassitude.
Of course, it pleases me no
end that the sachet is tucked
into the package. You can't
ignore it, for the sachet and the
lovely liquid fragrance come for
the same money. The French
men who make this set are
initiating women into the ultra
feminine habit of enhancing
daintiness and charm by the
use of sachets on the person
and about the intimate gar
mentS.
And what subtle mischief is

venq Fashions Haze Never Been More Attractive More Varied
to
Break Up
Affair
By BEATRICE FAIRFAX


Famous Authority On Love
and Marriage
Dear Miss Fairfax:
Do you think sending a
girl away would break up a
love affair, which is in every
way undesirable? She is over
81 and can, of course, marry
legally. But without going
into details, the marriage
would wreck her life hap
piness and bring shame upon
our family.
I am willing to do anything
to break up this affair, even
going as far as mortgaging my
home, but the question is,
would it help? Does absence
make the heart grow more or
less fond? L. D. K.
1t would depend entirely on
where the girl went, and how
much diversion she found. If
you were to send her to some
remote country place, with
nothing but a lovely landscape
to recommend it, she would
probably find herself more in
love with the undesirable"
than ever.
If, however, she is to 60 to
some highly interesting and
amusing place, where she will
meet attractive people, dance,
motor, stay out of doors in the
sunshine, and have a thor
oughly good time, the attrac-
tion of the undesirable" is
likely to diminish.
If you can manage this, 1t
would be we'll to persuade her
to go. But don't, please, send
her off where she'll have moth
ing to do but think Of the alb
sent one.
This will also answer the
question of a lady who signs
herself "Forlorn Mother"

Wants a Good Time

Dear Miss Fairfax:
My girl friend has become
infatuated with a good-looking
married man ten years older
than she is. Although I am
positive there is nothing be-
tween them, I've ruined every
date by acting sulky and ir-
ritable.
The other day I presented
every logical argument I
could. and actually made her
admit her folly. She only said
she wanted to have a good
time before she settled down.
decided to break off, but
couldn't bring myself to 1t,
she is so dear to me.
She even wanted to give me
back the ring until I thought
she deserved it, but that
seemed like a hollow victory
to me.
When I gave her the ring,

down, and I should not OBJ
ject now If she went out with
single men. She thinks we
should go on as we have been,
but I don't see how we can.
UPTON"
Idon't wonder at your perplex-
ity or the fact that you're Sulky
and irritable when you take this
young lady out on dates. 1t is
always a question whether it is
wise to go on with an affair like
this, when one of the parties is
plainly infatuated with someone
else.
She may continue being in
fatuated with married or even
single men, after she has be-
come your wife. Don't you
think it would be well if she
proved a little more depth Of
devotion to you before you con-
Sidered marrying her?

He's Good Looking and
Knows 1t

Dear Miss Fairfax:
I can't help being fond of
him, though he's good-looking
and knows it, and always has
a flock of pretty girls trailing
him. He has seen me home
from dances a few times, and
taken me out on dates several
times.
He is still as friendly as
usual, but hasn't taken me out
for a long time, and I just feel
like crying when 1 see him with
another girl. I do so want to
be friendly with him again and
have him take me out places.
S.
You'll have to be a good sport
and not show that this young
mans indifference affects you.
Be as gay and pleasant with
him as when he used to have
dates with you.
Young men often drop girls
temporarily and then come back
to them again. But if you're
moody, and look at him accus-
ingly when he's with another
girl, the chances of getting
him back are fewer. It's the
old case of "laugh and the
world laughs with you"
