Scowling, or if they reach too
close to your eyes, then do a
little plucking. Trim under

Good tWeezers are required,
and if you have ever tried to
buy a good pair, you know how
seldom they are accurate. You
have seen how quickly they
spring, and how they are thrust
directly in the way of vision
when you strive to get hold Of
a hayward tuft.
Well, intelligence and logic
have been concentrated on a
new tWeezer which every woman
will delight in owning. This APP

most a pleasure instead of a
painful chore.
Selling for pittance, women
are buying this efficient nipple
ment with astonishing rapidity.
Hold one by your thumb and
third finger, with the arch fol-
lowing the arch of your brow.
You will be amazed to see how
unusually accurate they are.

Resist That Impulse

Her natural impulse will be
to pick up the baby and give
him what he wants when he
wants tan extra meal at her
breast. This is an impulse
which she must resist. She may
give him a drink of water and
change his position in his has
ket or crib, since a child, like
an adult, gets tired of always
lying on one side and-unlike
an adult-cannot roll over to
the opposite side when he is
tiny.
In-between-times nursing,
however, is taboo in the we'll
regulated nursery. The hungry
baby who demands it will have
all the better appetite for his
next meal if he must wait until
then to satisfy his hunger. A
child, like an adult, can be
over-fed and his digestion needs
a rest between regular meals.
He will learn in a surprisingly
short time to wait for them,
when they provide him with
sufficient nourishment of the
proper quality. If for any rea-
son this fails, and the hunger
cry between meals persists, then
the doctor should be consulted
as to change in the diet.

Mothers Attitude

Little babies are intensely Sug-
gestible. To give them the habit
of eating vitamin foods as a
matter of course, the mothers
attitude is all-important.
She should be calm, cheerful,
confident, when serving the new
foods; she should not allow her
self even to think that the baby
won't. like them.
Suppose she herself. diSlikes
the taste of codliver oil. She
should not permit her prejudice
to be reflected even in her ex-
preston, if she wants her little
one to get the codliver oil habit!

VitQn1in Foods

Good food habits for the baby
mean that he must take his sup
Elementary foods - codliver oil,
orange juice, tomato juice
which are added to his menu
when he is a few weeks old
without protest. A mothers doc
tor will tell her exactly how
much he needs of these sub
stances, to give him the right
amount of vitamins, and the
normal baby will take them
readily if his mother goes about
it the right way.
A good method of administer
ing codliver oil is to put a few
drops inside the baby's cheek,
Just before feeding time, using
either a blunt medicine dropper
or a spoon.
The quintuplets have their
codliver oil when they have their
orange juice, so that the latter
may be said to take the curse
off" the former. But they really
do not object to the taste of the
oil: little babies do not mind it
if the dosage begins early.
Orange juice and tomato juice
may be fed by spoon or through
a bottle. From the point of
view of habit formation, the i'm
portant thing is to accustom
the babies to taking a regular
amount of these substances at
regular intervals; it is not only
necessary for their health but
it is a beginning in the i'm
portant procedure of adding va
riety to the monotony of a small
child'S menu.

Trimming Accepted

AS to trimming, for a street
costume a bow abruptly up
turned ends, such as our hat
on this page has, is ultra smart.
Fruit, flowers and other rather
simple decorations are used.
There will be quite a few flow
ers seen when summer really
comes.
Smooth and rough straws are
both smart. I won't go into
their names, because not only
do they change somewhat from
store to store, but they are
much too difficult to remem-
Der, and after all, it's the
general effect more than any
one or two or three straws that
art in good favor. Then there
are starched laces, nets and
embroidered cottons, which
will be good later on.

In Gay COlOrs

If you thought large hats had
arrived" last summer, just
watch them this year. They'll
be not only larger, but more
trimmed, more colorful and
much more popular. White
will be good, natural straw col
ors extremely and bright colors
and pastels will be seen in great
profusion.
Mushrooms are nearly always
built on a bandeau this year,
so that there's none of that
''hugging the neck" that used
to make them hard to wear,
uncomfortable and rather un-
becoming to most people. The
hat on this page is of the new
type. You can see that it
wouldn't even interfere with a
coat collar.

worked. Then push your needle
through material at top of row,
and bring it up again as in
diagram at upper left. Keep
your thread under the point of
the needle as shown. Presto
there's one stitch. Just repeat,
working the design always from
left to right.
Cross-stitch is equally easy.
First bring your thread through
to right side of material at
loWer-right corner of first pen
ciled cross. Then push your
needle through at top left of
same cross, and bring it out di-
rectly underneath at point
that will start the second stitch.
Continue making these stitches
across the row. Then work
back, from left to right, as
shown in diagram. Be sure to
get the same slant on each row
of stitches.

LOVelOrn
Now She Goes
With Others
BY BEATRICE FAIRFAX,
Written Exclusively for The
Washington Times

Written Exclusively for The
Washington Times
Dear Miss Fairfax:
During the past four years,
T have spent nearly all I have
earned, taking a much loved
girl to dinners, dances and
theaterS.
Now 1 have lost my position,
and as I haven't the money
to take her around, she has
started going with other young
men.
Would you advise me to
break off our engagement? I
love her dearly, but fear she
may not have the right sort
of love for me.
I can't stand the thought Of
her going around with others,
when I really love her SO
much. Sincerely, j. B.
Perhaps the loss of your
position may have made you a
little morbid over this situa-
ton. If the girl went out once
or twice with some other man,
it wouldn't mean necessarily
that she had gone back on you.
AS you may remember, lone
swallow doesn't make a sum-
mer." But if she evades you,
breaks dates, declines to see
you, and goes out constantly
with other men, it would be we'll
not to consider this girl seri-
ously, even though you have
been attentive to her for four
years.

Mushrooms and Sailors Make for Picturesque Millinery
Eyebrows

Care
Bv JULIET SHELBY

Fascinating Carole Lom-
bard knows how to use her
beautiful eyebrows to good
advantage. This can readily
be seen in her latest picture,
"Rumba."
But few people realize how
much is really commanded by
the raising or lowering of a
perfectly-shaped eyebrow.
Percy Westmore, ingenious
makeup man of the Warner
Brothers studio, believes the
eyebrow is the most expressive
part of the face. The eyes can
lie, he claims; but never the
eyebrow!
If you have a lovely natural
arch, by all means keep it.

Etiquette
A Progressive
Party
By MRs.CORNELIUs BEECKMAN

By MRS CORNELIUS BEECKMAN
Dear Mrs. Beeckman:
A mixed group of IL young
people are planning a progress
sive dinner party, and we will
greatly appreciate any informa-
ton you can give us, as we do
not understand just how to go
about it.
Inasmuch as the meat course
seems to be quite expensive,
would it be all right to have
about three of the girls share
that expense? *.
A progressive dinner party
simply means that each course
of the dinner is served at
different house. and a very
delightful party it can be. And
it would be very wise and thor
oughly proper to have three
of the girls plan the main
course and share the expense.

7wo Million Trees
To Be Set Out On

LINCOLN. Neb. March 10. Up
First paintings OF 100000 trees In
the plains shelterbelt viii be made
before April ! In Texas. Oklahoma
and Kansas. and the trees will be
set out within q few weeks In Ne
braska and the Dakotas.
Paul II. Roberts. acting director OF
the federal project, revealed Tuesday
the definite areas In which paintings
will be made.
After preliminary field studies
this winter, the u. ;. forest service
selected so counties in the six states
as the site OF experimental work dur
ing the first year Of the big tree
planting program
The project which has its national
headquarters here, was allotted ST.
000, 900 to start the shelterbelt. The
work will be largely demonstrations
this year.
The exterior limits Of the zone it.
self are subject to adjustment and
pending final arrangements some
experimental planting may be done
outside them" Roberts said.
1T has been necessary TO select
land for the 1885 paintings that has
been in cultivation during the past
year. since sufficient time has not
elapsed since the establishment Of
the project to permit the kind OF adj
vance soil preparation that Is neces-
sary.
The Importance Of selecting prop
erly cultivated land is emphasized
by the unusually low supply Of
moisture in the ground az this time
The e to be planted will be linn.
tied this year by the amount oi
planting stock that can be obtained
from existing nurseries, and there
fore will necessarily be small"
Roberts emphasized that the shell
tered will not be a narrow forest
extending from Canada TO the Texa:
Panhandle, but that this area Il
merely the zone In which thousand:
Of eaSt-west shelterbelts will be
planted. many Of them on individu-
al farms.
The purpose Of the shelterbelts. he
said. is to slow down surface winds
and thus reduce evaporation In the
summer and save the moisture OF
SHOWS in the winter.

to be planted in each state this year
and the counties where they will
