alarmingly great. Anything spilled on

likely to cause a skid, and perhaps do

smear of grease or oil has sent many
a person to the hospital, Therefore
one of the first requirements in the
lessening of danger in the kitchen is
to keep the floor scrupulously clean

Success
Speaking Pleasantly
and Low Better
Than Shouting.
BY ANGELO PATRI.

VOUR voice is an index of your
condition. 1t expresses what you
feel. T. you are trying to hide pain
or sorrow or anger or JOY, don't speak
Your voice will betray you. try as
you may to prevent 1t.
The human voice has great in
fiuence on those who hear it. There
are voices that send men into battle
with a headlong rush. They have
a compelling influence. There are
voices that can soothe, others that
irritate. There are voices that stimu-
late people to action and others that
drive them frantic with nervousness
Children have to listen to voices for
the most of their waking time. The
effect upon them of this multiplicity
Of vibrant impulse is something to
consider gravely.
Mothers have much to worry them
They have so much to bear that the
end of the day finds them weary
beyond all telling. The children dc
a thousand things that register on
their mothers nervous system. 1t is
small wonder that their voices rise
to shrill cries. that they scream and
shout and threaten in voices that
register themselves on the chIdren's
nerves.
Teachers suffer the same way
Worn down by the steady grind OF
class room work, torn among the
40 or so personalities that are drain
ing the nervous force from her body
the teacher loses control and her voice
takes on strident tones, tones that
make children grit their teeth, tones
that make hose within hearing grow
tense.
"She will holler at me-" is the
child's expression of fear of this nerve
racking experience.
Don't holler. No matter what hap
pens, don't holler. And don't go to
the other extreme. There is holding
back that Is worse on the nerves OF
children than the violent outcry.
When the strain seems to be too much
try to 60 off by yourself for minute
and get control. If that Is not pos
sible, if you must stand by your post,
withdraw yourself mentally. Don't
say anything until the storm passes
Though your voice will be quieter'
you will speak with greater force. The
still voice carries the word in tones
that break louder on the ears of the
listeners than the shout ever will.
Children tire soon Of listening. Talk
as little as possible to them when
dealing with them. They will hear
the first sentences you use. Make
them tell. Don't save the point OF
the message to the last. They may
have stopped listening. Use your
clearest, pleasantest voice. always. The
pleasanter the voice the longer they
listen and the more kindly reception
they give the words.
II couldn't hear what she said, she
hollered so loud" said a puzzled little
girl one day. She told the truth.
It Is easier to hear a well modulated
voice than the shout, or the shrek
Speak softly. You will be heard, and,
what is more important, you will be
needed.

Orchids for the Evenings.

Not since the days Of grandmother
have fresh fowers-real flowers with
real fragrance and true color-been
worn by young and old alike. ORCHIDS,

picture in grandmother's day. hold the
center Of the stage.
This season the young Junior
Leaguers have set the fashion Tor

to their individual types for wearing

orchids used as Q decoration on an
orchid tulle muff; orchids used at the
belt. and to fasten q fur cape. With

coat, two orchids closed the little
Peter Pan collar.
Orchids may be depended upon to

If they have been properly worn. And

In such a retreat! Not only does a
room of this kind serve as a grand
place for the little tots to play in.
in inclement weather, but it affords
a perfect recreation room for the
older members of the family-pro-
viding a card or game room for in
formal entertaining.
You need not condemn the Idea Of
such room just because of lack Of
funds to call in a firm to do the
work. Do it yourself! After all. why
should a mere furnace and coal bin
dominate one third of your home?
Any cellar with head room and floor
space may be turned into an attrac-
tive place and the small expense
entailed will be more than justified
in one Winter through the saving OF
the rugs and furniture on the upper
floors on party nights and rainy days
when the children must have place
to play in. You need not be dis
couraged either just because of a coal
furnace, stationary tubs, unsightly
pipes or poor light These need
never forbid the transformation The
furnace section or coal bin may be
sealed with wall board and made
dust-proof with lining Of building
paper.
VOU can, with a few strokes of the
wand" create a real Apache
room. Provide a board wide enough
to cover the laundry tubs-improvis-
ing buffet" Clean the walls and
the floor thoroughly and paint them
with a mixture Of cold water paint
white, with the slightest tinge of
green. yellow or blue in it. Use a
whitewash brush on the stone, brick
or cement wall. Then for a really
novel influence decorate the walls
with motifs in rough draft-huge
playing cards, diamonds, spades,
hearts, etc.-dominox and q huge
checker board or golf clubs, hunt
ing scenes or nursery characters-in
fact, anything your fancy may de-
mand may be used. Use bright paint
in coloring these. The floor will no
doubt need good cleaning. Mop it
up with soap and water--mix gallon
of vinegar with gallon of water and
apply the same with mop. allowing
the solution to dry in. This mixture
will do to neutralize the lime-that
frosty effect, from coming through
the paint.
Be sure to provide shelves for toys
or books and make the curtains of
bright plaid or checked material.

~ Ehft MlO0 b4A-Wm yOU
please tell me some Of the
characteristics that make
- adults seem youthful? Some
people seem old, although they are
still young in years. We all wish to
remain young. How can we do it7
r. A. z.
Answer-The best way to remain
young Is not to worry over growing old.
Lots of women acquire wrinkles trying
to avoid them and In their efforts to
keep girlish figure they starve them
selves into withered beldames, and
look 20 years older than their age
instead of 10 years younger.
To certain extent we can keep our
bodies youngish by taking care Of them
and eating and sleeping and working
and playing right, but nothing stops
the relentless march of time and we
only befool ourselves when we think
that we can attain synthetic youth
by the use Of cosmetics, having our
faces lifted and our hair dyed. Old
sheep is never Spring lamb. and no.
body is so dull and stupid as to mistake
so for 16.
Indeed, nothing so emphasizes age
as for 1t to ape youth. An elderly
woman never looks so old and haggard
as when she Is diked out in grand
daughters clothes. She pever seems
so senile as when she ogles men young
enough to be her grandsons and talks
about her hoy friends" Many a
woman whose age would be of no in
terest to any one except herself if she
dressed appropriately and conducted
herself with dignity, is laughed at as a
ridiculous old monkey because she
tries so hard to be mere girl.
ONCE stayed at a Summer hotel in
which there was a very smart
dress shop. One Of its patrons was an
elderly woman. so thin that when her
back was turned and you saw only her
slender figure and her red-dyed hair
you thought she was a f1apper. She
always had on the latest thing in ex-
pensive sport wear. She was the cyno-
sure of all eyes until she turned
around. and under her rakish little
hat was seen the bepainted, made-up
face Of grandmother. Heavens, look
at that old hag!" was the involuntary
exclamation on every lip. But she
wasn't. She was very good looking
woman for her years. What made her
seem older was the contrast of her
clothes and age
The spirit Of youth does not come
in bottles and jars. 1t Is something
deep down In your soul that bubbles
up through all your being and makes
your eyes bright and keeps your lips
smiling. As long as you have this
you will never be old though you live
to be q centenarian. The things that
age. and that no amount of powder
and rouge and lipstick can camou-
flage, are selfishness, lack of SYM
pathy, high temper, jealousy and envy.
These etch lines in a face that no
masseuse can rub out and that make

If You Want to Keep Young Stop
. Worrying About Growing Old.

. woman look as old and hard a.
Time itself.
30. II you want TO keep young, keep
your sympathies alive. Make the joys
and sorrows of every one about YOU

the heart Of a little child. The
women whom everybody loves are age
less and beautiful.
Keep growing. Keep studying. Keep
up with the times. Keep an open
mind. Keep yourself vitality interested
in everything that goes on in this
changing old world Of ours. Age is
not a matter Of years. 1t Is the
stoppage Of growth. Whenever you
begin to talk about the good old
days" and think that the younger
generation is going to the dickens:
whenever you begin to reminisce and
become a repeater you are old. but
you will never be old as long as you
can change your opinion and adopt
new ways. And II you will make
yourself lovable. keep yourself in

care how many birthdays you have
had.
nEAR MISS DIX: What are the
children's duty to their parents?
MRS. T. G. z.
Answer think that children's
duty to their parents depends on how
well the parents have done their duty
to their children. If father and
mother have given their children a
happy and peaceful home, no matter
how humble 1t may have been, II they
have been tender. loving, understand
ing and have done their best to give
them an education and a right start
in the world; If they have taught
them courage. self-reliance, thrift, in.
dustry and the principles by which
they must stand or fall, their children
owe them a debt of affection and
gratitude that they can never repay.
And my experience and observation
is that the people who have been the
right kind Of parents never have to
consider their children's obligations to
them. The children do all they can
for their fathers and mothers through
love and not because of q sense Of
duty.
But when parents have been neglect.
full of ther children; when father has
been too much occupied with making
money to bother with the rearing Of
his boys and girls and mother has
beer4 too busy with parties or clubs or
going of on lecture tours or running
a gift shop to give them any personal
attention; when parents have been so
harsh and strict and tyrannical that
they robbed their children of every
pleasure and indulgence; when weak
parents spoil and indulge children
until they unfit them for life, then
do not see that the children owe any
duty whatever TO those who have been
their worst enemies and done them
more harm than malice itself could
invent. DOROTHY DIX.
