 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
 Long Wrong
 Have been reading your column for many years. If you're wrong you've been misleE ling me for quite whiiel one of your suggestions has brought me much comfoFt--us- ing oil instead of soap and water for cleansing. But beauty editors often say that olive oil, mineral oil and ordinary cold cream stimulate the growth of hair. Can you name any oils or oily cosmetics suitable for the purpose which do not en. courage the growth of i1air7 (R. WI
 AYlswer--If you discover any oil or other cosmetic which actually StiTIi- ilates growth of hair, I'll take 1t of your hands (onto my head ct . substantial premium over what you paid for it. I believe standard oint. ment of rose water (Unguentum Aquae RoBAe) freshly made up by your druggist after the formula in his .. 6. or 3. Pharmacopoeia, is the best oil you can use for cleans. ing the skin or for keeping it in good condition.
 Tomato Julce
 Does tomato juice lose any of it's Vitamin potency when 1t Is kept . week or more after the can has been opened? (Mrs. M. s. P.)
 Answer--Yes, the vitamin 0 is in part destroyed by oxidation. one ounce of tomato juice (fresh or fac" tory canned, not home canned) futs nishes at tho time can is opened, l70 units of vitamia 4, Q units of vItamin B, i4 units of vitan1in 0 and 6 units of vltanlin c, and has Q caloFic content of 6. OnesOunce of fresh orange juice furnishes only 20 units of vitamin A, the same amount of vitamin D and Wtanin 0 as tomato juice, and 10 units of vitamin c, on dhas Q caloric con. tent of i2. Thus factory canned tomato juice is c great blessing, @" specially for infants, where orange juice is not available.

Your Children
By OLIVE ROBERTS BARTON

everything knows you don't intend to make mother worry. But she does worry; she can't help it. If you leave your wagon too near the edge of the terrace, Jack, and it decides to race down into the street to be smashed by car, of course she worries, Or if your doll cart, Mary, the one you were so proud of on your birthday, iS left outside over night, rained on hard, and spoiled I'm not surprised If she even cries'
 Mcndcd Toys Ignored
 She can have your wagon fixed Jack-pcrhaps--and new lining put in the "pram," Mary, but you know every kind of repair work costs money. And besides there IA pretty good chance that you won't be very proud of the fixed over toys ever again. When things are hurt, we lose interest in them And that's too bad. "Oh, that old thing" you will be saying, perhaps Mon, can't have a new One2"
 And maybe Moaher will look { bit upset, because it seems such { short time since she decided to dC without new cups and Baucers to gel you that now-ruined present. AnC she is still using the old cups, al cracked and clipped from a thou sand wnshings, because she wanted you to be happy.
 Things wear out just as mothers cups did, from what we call "weal and tear" But that is different That takes time. We expect those things, What we don't expect is tC have them spoiled long before their time by carelessness, or forgetful. ness or laziness.
 CarelessnesS Expensive
 When you lose your cap Of sweater or raincoat, it is almost the same as though you had lost a dollar, or several dollars. I'm afraid that's just about the way we have to look at 1t. Because it takes money to replace the lost piece and money is hard, hard thing to get. You will learn some day just how hard And besides, when money is spent for one thing, 1t can't be spent fol anything else. Did mother evei say, "I1l have to buy you new hal in place of the one you lost, Jack SO now cannot get you your new shOes2" And 1t makes her fee dreadfully, those shoes do.
 Boys and girls usually learn tC take care of their possessions ir time, but often they are grown UT before this happens. And even ther some people never learn. What 6 pity. Because for everything lost or destroyed, or spoiled SOMEONE ALWAYS HAS TO WORRY. Usu- ally 1t is mother. And that really doesn't seem fair, when a little thought. a little trying and little trouble could prevent 1t. It doei seem worth while don't you think? Copyright. 1886, NEA Service, Incl

 One way to avoid that pasty, over -made-up look is to start ale ways with an absolutely clean skin. Wash frequently with soap and water. Don't put fresh make- tip on over layers of stale powder and rouge.
 It no longer is smart to have your hairdresser arrange narrow, tight finger waves and corlscrew curls. Insist upon wide. fiat waves and curls that are soft and nat- al-looking. Never leave the beauty shop until your hair has been not only combed but brush- cd. Furthermore, don't be afraid to brush 1t yourself. Correct brushing doesn't spoil . good wave. AS a matter of fact, the treat ment tends to deepen the waves and make them last longer.

Men and women who have be- come great are found, in general, to have had parents above the average in quality. Tn most cases, they also have had superior advantages in their youth.
 This fact, determined by a study of the lives of 300 noted men and women, should discredit to some ex- tent the common belief that great men are more likely to come from poor families. where they are with out opportunity, than from wealthy families where they have every chance of improvement.
 Indeed, actual studies show that the son of an eminent official q general in the army. a president of the United States. or a great phllo- sopher an dteacher, has . better chance to become great than the son of a toiler in the fields.

been among skilled workers and
relatively young workers. The un'
skilled and the older workers have
shared in this revival to a much
less extent. ~
Must Change Policy
In the relief message to Con.
gress on March 18, 1886, I asked
private business Ito extend its
operations so as to absorb an in.
creasing number of unemployed" "
Many private businesses are re-
sponding-but much remains to
be done.
Industry should continue and
increase it's unemployment efforts.
To reduce substantially the un-
employment relief rolls, industry
must hire a larger number of
the older workers and the un.
skilled workers. This problem
will, I hope. be recognized by
industry.
It is widely known that many
of the largest industries will not
hire workers over 40 years Of
age. To a large extent this
policy is responsible for the rela-
lively large number of older
workers on relief. Leaders of
business must recognize the con.
sequences of this hiring age
policy-it condemns many in this
group of workers to permanent
unemployment.
Permanent Burden
It is scarcely necessary to point
to the seriousness of this policy to
the unemployed. Long continued
unemployment for the older
workers results sooner or later in
unemployability. The non-employ-
ment of unskilled workers like
wise leads eventually to unemploy-
ability-and this means a perma-
nent problem of support. And
the burden of support is carried
ultimately in a large measure by
industry itself.
1t is to the best interests of
industry to recognize it's RESPONSE
bility, not only by substantially in
creasing employment but by en-
ploying those in groups where
many are now supported by pub
lie funds.
Industry can adjust its hiring
policies so as to cause the speediest
reduction in the real social burden
of unemployment. This means
giving a fair share of the new
jobs to the workers over 40 and
to expand opportunities for the
hiring of unskilled workers.

succession might be affected.
The most bitter oppoSitioniStS
agreed, however, that the nation
would accept the marriage graci'

comments:

A bus driver:

king"
An army officer:

modern times. 1t will be the
best thing for England If he
breaks with tradition"
A housewife:
"The marriage will cause the
Church of England to revise its

divorce"

The turn political repercussions
are likely to take hinged on
whether Salengro'S suicide was
due to bounding by the news
