Living Fully
BY. JOHN BLAKE.

TRYdto live fully. Get the most out
of your life. Do not be overly
Strung about by petty rules. See things,
hear things. do things. even fear
things. So will your latter days be
happy.
Not long ago o woman died at 80
odd. A poor woman, by comparison.
Her little estate had barely sufficed to
carry her to the graves edge. She
had lived happily. She went wherever
she could until the disabilities of age
prevented. She talked with people. She
corresponded with her friends. She
went to the seashore of a Summer,
though she lived. in back room and
dined in cafeterias.
She was mourned more deeply than
is one in ten thousand. Merely because
she had kept her interest in life
alive.
A man of 10 barely escaped the peni-
tentiary. He was not guilty-but no
matter. He had been caught in web
OF false friendship. Mistaken loyalty
had trapped him. His conscience was
clear as spring water, but there were
days when the steel door seemed to
swing wide for him. Does he mourn
over those crashing years when for
tune and reputation seemed about to
be taken from him? Not he.
II have lived" he exults. " have
not been vegetable If I die tomorrow
I am content. Every day has been a
good day"
Why not try living for time?
Get out of the rut Of bath and
breakfast, Office hours and dinner, golf
and bridge. Try meeting some new
people. Interest yourself in them. Do
new things. Take a chance now and
then. Ride a horse merely because you
are afraid to ride horse.
You say you are too tired at night
to do new things. Nonsense. You are
cowardly or lazy. Get your resolution
by the scruff Of the neck Make your
self live. You can. il you will 1t Is all
matter Of will. So Is everything else
in life.

Light or
Dark Tan
Liquids and Cream
Help Attain Right
Shade.
BY ELSIE PIERCE.

DoN'T let the sun decide whether
~ YOU are to wear a coat of tan and
how dark that coat is to be, For II
you leave it to Old Sol, theren be a
tan all right, but regrets with it. and
possibly pain and peeling and many
other not so comfortable or good TO
look at details of the aftermath.
Let science help you. Science can
be trusted. The sun can't. If you are
not certain how you look with tan
ned skin, try the bottled variety first.
Convinced that it is becoming and
that you want to acquire the real
thing, 90 to it; but very, very gradu-
ally. There are ever so many fine
preparations that will help you to
regulate the color of the coat without
the unhappy ending that usually comes
with sunburn. There's sunproofing
cream, for instance that assures a de-
gree of tan to the amount of cream
you use. If you use the cream spar
ingly. you acquire deep tan COM
fortably. If you prefer not to tan at
all, you merely use the cream very
generously and it sits the burning
and tanning rays of the sun. 1t acts
as a screen and a protection. 1t is
cooling and cannot be detected on the
skin. You don't look greasy or messy
with it.
There are other preparations;
creams oils, lotions. If you want to
remain fair as gardenia petal, use
special sun oil that combines min
eral, vegetable oils and other sooth-
ing ingredients that stand sentinel
against the suns rays. Or fragrant,
creamy sunburn lotion that forms an
adherent, protective coat.
You do want to tan. Well, there's
coconut oil that liquefies at body
temperature, spreads its film quickly
and evenly. encourages the tan but
retards the burn. There's cocoa but
ter lotion, too, convenient way to
avoid going through the peeling and
blistering stage. Then, too. there are
individual cocoa butter sticks, small
enough to tuck into your beach coat
pocket, easy to apply, these individual
sticks soften the skin and help to
equalize the tan-giving the skin an
even instead of mottled or spotty
coat.
When you go down to the sea
again" and to the beach, keep one
Of the softening, soothing agents at
your side. Whether you are on the
pro or con side of this tanning ques-
ton, you should be all for protection
anyway Because it means smoother,
finer skin, less wrinkles, freckles, gen.
eral oo-much-Sun damage. There are
innumerable convenient kits, as good
looking as they are useful; as wettable
as the beach itself. Some of them
are equipped with sunburn lotions,
creams or similar preparations; with
lipstick and vanity, with cigarette
pocket and special compartment for
bathing s'lit, slippers and towel.
Waterproof, of course.

it appeared that no other Foxes were
living around there Anyway, so far
they had found no traces of any other
Foxes 1t was an old hole that
Woodchuck had dug that settled the
question of whether or not they would
stay.
Let's stay here" said the Timid
One, after they had explored it. Well

hide. I haven't felt really safe since
we left home"
Her sister grinned She was a
smart young Fox, not at all timid,
like the other. "All right" said she.
Wen stay here while and see how
We like it."
So they went to work to make that
old Woodchuck den a little bigger
and more suited to their needs. Then
they started out to explore the coun-
try round about, so that they should
become thoroughly acquainted with 1t.
The one who had been called the
Weakling led the way. She always
led the way Mother says that the
wise Fox going into a new locality,
first learns every path and tree and
rock, and that the Fox who fails to
do this is simply stupid" said she.
'"Of. course" replied the Timid One.
There is nothing like being safe, and
no one can ever be really safe with
out knowing just. where to run in
time of danger
So the two spent much Of their
time exploring the land all around
about, until they knew every little
path, every turn in every little path,
every rock, every tree. every bush.
They knew all these things so well
that if danger had suddenly appeared
they would have known instantly
which way to run. They wouldn't
have had to stop to think about it.
Now, not a great way from that
pasture where the two young Foxes
were living was q farmyard, and in
that farmyard were hens running
about every day Peeping out from
the edge of the pasture. the young
Foxes could see those hens. and 1t

There are three species of bull

as most useful reptiles. for they feed
on the small animals that are busily

cultural crops.
They are among the largest con-

are alike, and once you can see them

them as they go about their affairs.

ance Of hers who has approached

"f q male or female acquaint-
ance Of the man escort approached

the invitation to be seated, after
the introduction has been made,
come from the male escort or from
his woman companion? H."
The woman who has come up
to the table may ask the man to
be seated, but she probably
wouldn't If she is to stay only a
minute or two at the table. for she
probably would realize that he
would feel uncomfortable being
seated while she is standing. The
best and most natural thing is for
the man to remain standing while
the woman guest Is standing. and
not to take his seat until she has
left the table.
Yes. Although 1t would be
easier and more appropriate for q
man to ask another man to be
seated. However. it's always best
for the man who is at the table
to remain standing.
Here again the man will un-
doubtedly prefer to stand. and it
is best not even to make mention
Of his taking his seat.
