Is affected in the same way.
Now the question Is whether the girl
who has beauty blemishes Of any sort
can afford to neglect that simple
beauty aida happy smile. She Ger
tainly cannot lose anything by 1t and
she can increase her attractiveness
many fold by 1t. At first it may seem
impossible to summon . smile when
one feels more like hiding ones head
and crying over ones beauty blemishes,
but experience teaches that the per-
sistent smile will gradually establish q
more cheerful mood in place Of the
old. discouraged one. The smile Is
good medicine for beauty ills.
There are different kinds Of smiles
some less pleasing than others. Too
broad a smile creases the cheeks more
than is necessary and may show too
much of gums and teeth. There are
insincere smiles, supercilious and cyni-
cal ones. The way to make sure that
your smile Is an attractive one Is to
put genuine good will and friendliness
into it. The right sort Of smile IL
lumines the whole face.
Every baby knows how to give en-
chanting smiles. but the art is often
lost for Q time by the self-conscious
girl in her teens. She may spend
hours trying on makeup and arrang"
ing her couture, but neglects to prac*
tice smiling. II you have dimculty ~
smiling, practice doing 1t ut certain
periods every day, for instance, at meal
times. Then try smiling when you
meet people; gradually the habit will
grow on you and you viii ind yourself

BY LYDIA LIE BARON WALKER.
THIS Is one OF rne great seasons OF
giving. not Of new things. but Of
an accumulation of unwanted articles.
Spring is the greatest season for this,
with Autumn as good second. With
the housecleaning orgy in process or
recently over, the homemaker realizes
that during the previous months many
articles have accumulated; clothing,
furniture, dishes, utensils Of various
sorts, ETC., and some must 60 to per-
NIT space for another period of accu-
mutation. With new frocks, what is
to be done with the old? With new
equipments, discarded ones are in the
way. With replenished linens, etc,
the others may prove only a care TO
save. It Is because Of such circunl-
stances that Spring and Fall become
seasons Of dispensing.
There are few persons who do not
md certain pleasure in giving, and
this Is a not unworthy enjoyment.
But it has to be done with tact when
the things belong In the personally
unwanted group Yet these same
things, unwanted by present owners.
may be Just the things wanted by
some one else. When the giver can
ma the right person for the right
thing she Is fortunate. It Is not easv.
Every one realizes the truth of this
Oftent1mes there are articles the
owner appreciates are really worth
while, but can be dispensed with. and
S1e tries to find some one she knows
who would like them.
Then comes the hesitation lest
of1ense be taken by an offer of them.
oiten those In most need are the
most difficult to help. There is ths
reluctance Of equals to accept from
equals. An interchange would be
different.
II the person who wishes TO present
the articles will put herself in the
place OF the receiver, she can get
some idea of the reluctance mem
toned. Also she may be able to find
an acceptable way 10 give. How would
she like to be approached with the

lzatlon OF the last clause-the oues-

However, a kind heart will find a wsy.
For most of the things, there are
avenues of dispensing, such as
through the church, or benevolent
societies. These know of needs. but
the articles will scarcely go where you
so wish them to. So it is worthwhile
to puzzle the matter out and give
what you want to give, where you
want It to go, if possible. It is BY 30
doing that giving becomes more than
dispensing. It takes on q human
interest.

There is the riot of color waiting to
be released from well ordered racks,
and a whole panorama of delightful
places and occasions for wearing these
dresses flashes through the imagina-
ton in quick succession as they are
brought out for inspection.
Chosen for the sketches today are
two pastel sheers trimmed with lace,
representing the type Of dress that Is
so convenient to use for Spring after
moons, bridge parties, luncheon dates
and other pleasant things. The sheers
are Of that closely woven variety that
takes away all transparency, and the
lace gives them a dressy appearance.
There Is q variety of neck and sleeve
treatment. These two frocks are from
one Of the smaller shops which 50

certain Of not meeting yourself the

Bon Voyage
Token Will
Avoid Bulk
"Thank You" and Its
Fitness. When One
Is Entertained.
BY EMILY POST.

DEAR MRS. PosT.-A best friend
of mine is going to travel in
foreign countries for several months
and would like very much to give
him something as q little bon voyage
remembrance. I realize that q book
would be suitable but I don't konw
what he likes best to read, and any,
way most of his spare time will be
spent in taking pictures because q
camera is his obsession. Do you think
it would be nice to give him a lot of
films? Or do you think it would be
nice to give him an album to keep
his collection together? I have seen
lovely one and I thought I might
have this marked for him personally
and with the time of his trip"
Answer: Films would be excellent,
I think. But an album would, in my
opinion, be a perfect nuisance-un-
less you send it to him long enough
before he sails so he can leave it at
home and yet know that It will be
waiting for his pictures when he gets
back. But unessential bulk is the
one thing than an experienced trav-
eler avoids above all things.
Dear Mrs. Post: Must I say thank
you to boy after I've been out with
him? Mother says must and I
can't bring myself to thank any boy
for taking me somewhere"
Answer: It is only commonest
politeness to say Thank you" to
everybody and for everything given
you or offered you or done for you.
This does not mean that thanks
must be gushing or fulsome. Or per-
haps Thank you" is only implied:
Good night. Tommy: I've had Q
lovely time" Or Good night, Tommy,
and thank you!" Or If he says,
THANK you, Mary, for going with
me-" she, of course, answers, Thank
you, Tommy, for asking me-" As in
nearly everything we say, the words
'eThank YOU" can be almost rude in
their GOODNESS, or they can be courte-
GUS, or friendly, or loving, or cloying
saccharine, or clingingly ardent-but
through all our lives Cf we are pollte)
we say them tens of thousands OF
times and with endlessly varied in
hections.
Dear Mrs. Post: I am girl of
II and would like to 60 from New
York to Boston with boy who is
two years older. We are very good
friends and have been invited to visit
the same people"
Answer: If you are going in the
enthusiastically! But it would not
do at all to travel by night boat or
in a sleeping car.

"NHERE Is an OLD CIuIlcSc pIoVcAo
which says that the bee stings
the crying face. This is .
picturesque way Of stating
that those who cherish the
wrong mental attitude are courting
further trouble.
This bit Of Oriental wisdom should
be kept in mind by self-conscious girls
who worry unduly about their beauty
problems. When a girl of this type
engages in conversation with some one
else she feels acutely embarrassed
and this spoils her charm. Instead
Of acting pleased and interested in
what the other person is saying she
wonders whether he is noticing the
size Of her nose, her scanty lashes
or the light down of hairs on the sides
Of her face. These personal worries
give her an unpleasant, strained ex-
preston that is anything but attrac-
tive. Yet the same girl may look very
pretty when happy thoughts catch
her unawares and lift her out Of
her gloomy mental rut.

of face or figure she may have. This
beauty asset is as well worth culti-
vating as velvety skin or long, curly
lasl1es. There Is more beauty magic in
happy frame of mind than in all the
high.priced jars Of cosmetics In the
land. This is not just "Pollyanna
stuff" either. There is solid scien-
tific basis for it. When a person Is
serene and happy the machinery Of
the whole body runs more smoothly
than when he feels depressed or nerv-
GUS. Breathing, circulation, digestion
and every bodily function are then
building up health. The complexion is
clearer, eyes brighten and there is an
upward lift ct the corners Of the
mouth.
Every girl has noticed that her skin
reflects her mental and physical con.
dition. It looks fresher when she feels
happy than when she is broodins over

among the couples where the hus-
band and wife settle down to mar
riase, and where they are more
concerned in doing their duty and
making each other happy than they
are about getting the best Of the
matrimonial bargain for themselves.
A MOTHER reason for the frequency
Of divorce IS that 20 many young
couples never show any honest effort
to make their marriages q success.
They don't even give them . fair

ment. They don't gumshoe around
each others pecslliarities. They don't
soft-pedal each others faults. They
scorn to use diplomacy in dealing
with each other. They don't con-
slider even common politeness worth
while.
WORST Of al, they don't give
w their marriages time to develop
into successes. They are not willing
to work at them for years and years,
Is they would ut any business or pro-
fession. They expect their marriages
to pay 100 per cent dividend from the
start and when they don't they throw
them into the discard. Yet many and

TH1s unlined jacket suit of crisp
navy taf3eta is made for wear
with dainty. sleeveless gilets
Of the lingerie type, or waist
coats Of tinted pique. 1t is q
cross between a dressmaker suit and
one with strict tailoring.
The fashion for silk suits will carry
on into Fall, so no woman considers
her wardrobe complete without one.
The fabric may be any medium
weight silk. Many women enjoy the
light quality of taffeta, while others
prefer the new matelasse weaves.
Both come in pure dye silk and stand
On IN equal footing as favorite fabrics.
The skirt centers attention on the
much talked-of front fullness. In this
case it Is achieved by the flaring Of
two front cores. The back has .
center seam which is flared slightly.
The jacket Is hip-length and has q
belt. This style is worn by women
who do not look well in loose, free
swtning jackets. It gives the poplum
line, and because it does not lap in
front It has distinct advantages as .
mid Summer suit. The cat-oow is
sewed to the back and may be worn
