What's the matter with Mrs.
Wrong? You've guessed it. Al
though she is exactly the same
size as Mrs. Right, those checks
make her look pounds heavier.
So does the tight fit of the dress
at waist, bosom and upper arms.
The shorter skirt, with its pep
lum and narrow width at the
hem, is also bad. The low,
square-cut neck and heavy shoul"
der trimming add weight, too.
Other wrong choices are the flat
hat, the choker chain of large
beads that shorten the neckline,
round eardrops instead of slen-
der ones, bold spots of rouge low
on the face, overdressy shoes
with spindling heels that make
the feet look uncomfortable, and
stockings of a pinkish-brown

Appeal to Pride

To avoid this state of affairs,
let her appeal to the pride Of
her oldest youngsters. She can
say something like this:
you're getting so big and
strong that I know you can
dress and undress yourselves
now. Big girls and boys like
you don't have to be treated like
babies any longer. You can re-
member to hang up your coats
and to pick up your playthings."
Until she starts some such
program the mother of several
children will not realize how
much drudgery she saves her
self. She must not be too
abrupt about the changes.
She must even recognize that
sometimes, as the older children
learn to look after themselves,
specific chores may take longer
than as if, in her impatience,
she had performed them.
But she will save time and
strength in the long run, and
valuable qualities of independ-
ence and responsibility will be
developed in her offspring.

Be TdctfuL

OF course, a wise wife and
mother will make such shifts
in her domestic arrangements
tactfully and affectionately. No
body in the family ever should
feel that-in the horribly un-
kind old phrase-the new baby
is putting his or her nose out
Of joint.
Baby should be considered,
on the contrary, a sort of
domestic community enterprise,
in which every member of the
family is tremendously inter
ested.
In really large families the
force of circumstances, when
there are no servants in the
home, usually compelS even the
five-and-six-year-olds to practice
a certain amount of self-help.
With so many youngsters gath
cred under one roof, each more
or less has to hoe his own row.
It is in the home with from
one to three children older
than the baby that the mother
too often becomes tagged and
nerve-worn trying to do more
than one pair of hands can
accomplish.

Saves Strength

What a growing child always
has the right to demand from
his mother no matter how
many new babies she acquires
Is affectionate interest and SUI
pervision. But it is not neces-
sary that she continue to wait
on him by inches, wearing her
self to skin and bone and NOR
bid martydom in the process.
Baby's father also can make
easier the lot of Baby's mother
by learning to wait on himself.
Unless he is churlish and un-
natural individual, or unless his
wife is uncommonly tactless, he
will make shift with good grace.
If his own mother did not
teach him, as a child, to hang
no his own clothes and leave
the bathroom as he found it, he
can acquire the habit in time TO
hand it down to his baby later
and, meanwhile, to save time
and strength for the baby'S
mother!

illness necessary for skin beauty.
Like so many other girls in
Hollywood, Toby uses a rich
cream for removing her makeup
before scrubbing her skin with
soap and water. Screen makeup
is devilish stuff, it clings to the
skin like glue after it has been
exposed to the 'hot rays of the
Kleig lights and it takes both
cream and soap to remove it
thoroughly.
So Toby covers her face and
neck lavishly with a lovely rich
cream. Then, with tissues, which
are softer and thicker than most
cleansing tissues, she does her
best to cream off the ugly stuff.
For long time I have been
anxious to tell you about this
exceptionally absorbent tissue
and to recommend a rich cold
cream that is very moderately
priced and has a consistency
which is soothing to tender or
dry skin.
