Your Children

 A child, while too young to as- sume such an attitude, does not have the sense of responsibility to- ward his home that he should have when he does nothing to help make 1t bright and shining and warm It is took likely to become a place where he keeps his books and toys and gets his meals. However, if he is responsible for a small duty never an irksome, strenuous one he will be happier because he knows that the home is his, too. It won't succeed unless he helps 1t.
 What can I do to help?" is a cry which children often make.

 Make Cooking . Pleasure
 If that mother is baking cookies a far wiser solution to the problem would be to give Betty a piece of dough, and small tin pan, and let her roll a ginger cake and sit quiet ly in the kitchen, getting her first lesson in the spicy realm of the cookie world, while she waits for her own particular treasure to brown. The next time that baking day comes she will want to make another cookie. Gradually she will acquire an interest in baking which in time will give her an excellent knowledge of this particular type of domestic routine. She will like cooking because it was fun in the beginning. Her mother will never say, as too many mothers do:
 T wish Betty liked to cook. The child never comes near the kitchen She's almost eighteen and she can't boil water"
 Too often mothers have them selves to blame when their daugh- ters dislike housework. They were too busy to teach them. Or 1t was too much trouble.
 A wise mother takes long look ahead.

 When you eat an apple, you get 82h per cent water and 12h per cent carbohydrate, with less than 1 per cent of the other constituents, except fiber. A strawberry gives you 90 per cent water, 6 per cent carbo- hydrate, and per cent protein.
 A raw peach provides 9.5 per cent carbohydrate, but if it is boiled the carbohydrate is greatly reduced. A banana provides "A per cent water, 22.7 per cent carbohydrate, and 1h per cent protein; whereas, water melon gives 929 per cent water, 6.5 per cent carbohydrate, and very little protein.
 Dried fruits, such as raisins, dates, and figs, have, of course, much less water (from IS to 20 per cent), and from 70 to 75 per cent carbohydrate. Because of their con- centrated character, they provide as much as 1900 calories pound.
 
 An ordinary apple provides 100 calories; three plums or three prunes will give 100 calories, and so will two-inch slice of watermelon. An orange provides the same num- Der of calories; but 1t takes whole cantaloupe to give equal energy. For this reason, cantaloupe is a good substance in reducing diet.
 Among the unusual fruit prod ucts are the cranberry and the avocado. Cranberries are slightly laxative, like other fruits, and they provide fair amounts of vitamin c, but lesser amounts of A. B. and D. The cranberry also is useful for it's iodine content.
 Many people feel that the cram berry is dangerous because it pro- duces acid. Scientific tests show, however, that the alkali reserve of the body does not decrease until more than 54 grams of cranberries, or more than one quarter pound, have been eaten.
 Few people eat as much as @ quarter pound of cranberries at one time. The human body has factors of safety which take care of acid ity coming in this manner.
 The avocado, or alligator pear, is interesting because 1t contains fat and has low carbohydrate content. The fact of the avocado varies from 8 to 31 per cent, the carbohydrate being about 4.6 per cent.
 The avocado is particularly rich in vitamin A and contains a good deal of vitamin B; in fact, one ex- pert insists that one avocado pro- vides as much vitamin B as six cakes of yeast. This interesting fruit is higher in minerals than oranges, lemons, peaches, and straw berries.
 Dietary advisers have developed many methods of serving the avo- cado, sp that when available 1t is highly valuable as Q constituent of salads and may be used also in sandwich filings. or nodded with fruits and vegetables in gelatin.

 Quite the simplest method is a soap and brush bath. Even tender skin-unless there is some abnormal condition is benefited. For your face bath, make a lather with mild toilet soap and warm water.

The gentle penetration of the bristles loosens the dirt and oil which have become embedded in the pores and any hard little caps which have formed on the pores will be swept away, allow ing them to throw off their waste and breathe again.
 The egg-shaped complexion brush has bristles which are rounded at the ends so they do not irritate sen- sitive skins. The brush is recom- mended by dermatologists for skins with blemishes and acne as it is such a thorough cleanser.

 A good lotion, small brush, small kind of bleach, bit of pumice and the necessary manicure accessories are important to anyone who wants to have beautiful hands.
 The girl who uses a typewriter 8 good deal need r1ot be surprised when she notices small, hard cal- louseS along the sides of each fin- ger. Pressure on the keys hardens fingertips, of course; but 1t also pushes cuticle and skin at the sides of each nail upward, making it stiff and thick. Pumice stone treatments at least once a week will solve the problem.
 When you have washed your hands, moisten the pumice stone slightly and rub it briskly across the callouSes. Don't press too hard and don't rub any one spot for more than 30 seconds.
 Use a prepared bleach or fresh lemon juice to remove stains on hands, wrists and fingertips. A good many women keep half of lemon on a shelf in the bathroom and the other half in the kitchen. Several times a day they simply dig their fingers into the juice and pulp.
 Remember that a small hand brush with rather stiff bristles will remove imbedded dirt and grime on which ordinary washing has no effect. Get into the habit of SCOUT ing knuckles and fingers as regular ly as you brush your teeth.
 Apply hand lotion or cream many times 8 day and always at night before you go to bed. When you use a suntan oil before hours of exposure to the sun, put some of 1t on hands as well as arms.

 Paris-The vest of starched white linen plays large role in this sea- sons sport and street clothes.
 The new vests invariably are made high at the neck and finished with an outstanding collar of some sort. Some of these collrs are pat termed after a mans wing collar and are finished with a fiat bow of starched linen. Others are in the form of ruffs, some frilled and some flat and cut on the bias. Still an- other way of finishing the white vest is with a fiat bib or a series of bubs in varying sizes, laid one on top of the other.
 Robert Piguet uses the white vest with many of his navy blue and black costumes. One in navy has a slim, straight skirt and a short bolero jacket which is held down at either side of the waist with large navy blue buttons. The jacket sleeves are tight fitting from the wrist co the elbow but puff up over the SnOuluer lne llke olu IaSllOneu 1eg-of-mutton sleeves.
 The white vest of sheer starched linen is gathered into fullness at the high neck band of navy blue wool, then flares up in ruff which extends almost to the tips of the ears.
 An attractive costume of black wool, fiecked with white, is made with a V shaped vest which ex- tends to the waist line of a noe piece dres. Tn this case the vest is feminine adaptation of the stiff, white shirt front of a mans evening suit. The high neck has a wing collar finished with a small, flat bow of tile starched linen.
