Your Children Rx OLIVE. ROBERTS BARTON

in one of our corners, with note- book, and record for 8 day list of destructive words used right in our own households, many of us would be chagrined and ashamed.
 They would include complaint, suspicion, accusation and the whole gamut of undeSirables.
 Spend a week sometime in a house where sarcasm les the style. At first you want to run, then you begin to see some fun in 1t, and by the time you have said your farewells, you pride yourself that you have gotten of some good ones, too.
 Nothing is so contagious as the destructive word. On the other hand, like most good and true things the optimistic phrase travels slowly.
 Parents feel that in their own homes, at least, they are free to ex- press thei rtroubles. Father comes in, tired out and full of woe; mother harried and suppressed, perhaps by lack of money and time to get out more, gets her outlet through com plaining.
 There may be others in the house, too, with aches and pains, or pri- vate grievances of various kinds, and these areu nloaded generously on any listener.
 Children Add to Rancor
 The children come in then, and air their petty jealousies, not that they are any less important to them than troubles are to their elders.
 The air is shot full, at dinner time, with expressions of distaste, disgust and self-commiseration.
 Our ghost presents us with quite a record.
 In the end. although each of us has relieved his ego and spit out a share of poison, he has absorbed everybody else's poison, too. No one has helped anybody, and feels not one whit better.
 Destructive words, like arsenic, are cumulative. From effect they turn into cause, and color every thing gray, or black, or green
 The hardest thing to learn is self control. The next hardest is to smile and say kind things when our need seems to be to Hay somebody.
 Constructive words, 8 pretended cheeriness, will react on ourselves and all those around us. Try it. Give 1t a day, a week, & month, and then send the ghost about his business. Contrary to belief, it is self control that reacts pleasantly. Copyright, 1887, NEA Service, Incl

TOTS would not be a daily menace.
 Now Paul Brunton, the author of books on India who once longed for a hermitage in the Himalayas, re- flutes the argument that women are safer in primitive circles than in civilized ones.
 Some districts are so infested with beasts that the peasant women carry pitchforks and large curved knives used for grass-cutting to de- fend themselves against attacks" he says. Our hill people say that if you encounter bear unexpectedly and are unarmed, the wiset thing to do is to throw yourself prone with your face to the ground and pretend to be dead. The bear will then sniff around you and go away"
 Precaution Versus Protection
 We wish no i'll luck to the ladies of the Himalayas, but their predica- ment revives the belief that in spite of it's human dangers a civilized community may have it's advan- tageS. For one thing, precaution in our world may act as a safeguard from attacks, and the inevitable dis covery and punishment of the cul- prit strikes fear into criminal souls some of them, anyway.
 We can not escape life - its tears or joys or dangers, its income taxes and its subway rushes. A sociAsy for the adaptation of ourselves to our environment might be an excellent addition to the lengthy list of names already on the boards. However, we can exercise proper precaution in a civilized world. We can heed the advice of the police department to put chains on the doors and open them only to the width of the three or four permitted inches.
 You may love your neighbor, but you can't trust him inside the door unless you know him well.
 Just Choice of Evils
 In civilized society, at least, we have the privilege of safeguarding ourselves. It is dreadful to carry with us the minds equivalent of

-PARENTs-''

Sometimes I wonder what people would be like if speech had never been invented. Because words, both spoken and heard, read and thought, are the making of character, either bad or good. .4 .ast,
 Our true selves are our thoughts, but strange to say, the words, we speak, even at random, affect our view, just as an effected limp will eventually crarnp the leg.
 In a household that ferments constantly, where no good word is said of anybody or anything, not only the bacteria of hate get into the children, but lingo of destruc- ton is foStered. Everything is mean" or awful or 'bad," and people are everything under the sun.
 It's an Unwilling Fault
 Most of us will look about now and think of one family or two that we know, and cluck our tongues. "Yes, that's true of the Smiths and Joneses," we say vir- tuously. But if ghost could stand

Paris Stylss
By MARY FENTRESS

United Press Staff Corrcspondent) Paris, CUP)-The shaded silk jersey evening gowns of Alix which follow Greek lines of drapery are creating sensation in Paris. One of these gowns shades from paleSt lavender to deep midnight purple. The soft silk jersey has been draped about the figure in an in- genious manner and the stitched into place. The low cut bodice has been draped diagonally with soft folds of the material crossing over one shoulder and leaving the arm free. The other side of the bodice is supported by a narrow shoulder strap.
 The dress is beltless but fitted i skin tight to the body at the waist and hips where folds of drapery are brought from the back to fasten with hook and eye in front. The skirt drapery is fuller and is caught in under the floor length hem. A similar evening gown is made in the same silk jersey which graduates from a pale greyish green to deep bronze shade of green.
 Another of Alix's creations which has been popular is an afternoon dress of black crepe which has no other trimming than a round, close fitting hand which forms a collar for the high throat of the dress. The silver collar is simply carved in an open work pattern and is fitted closely to the neck by tiny hinge and a clasp fastening. The dress itself is extremely simple. It is made with long tight sleeves and has a sash belt that ties at the front waist. A similar high collar is made in gold for the same dress model.

 Tn spite of its dirninutive dimen- sions when folded, a new makeup kit holds every item any woman needs. Covered with leather and lined with waterproof fabric, this is attractive on a dresser and especial ly handy for travellers. There's even a bit of extra space for personal items such as toothbrush and cleansing tissues.
 Also new is a clear, light red lip- stick for the days when you wear beige or gray. It goes on ever so smoothly and, if applied correctly, stays in place for hours.
 An eye health kit Is something to consider, particularly if spring sun- shine and new hats have brought to your, attention the fact that your eyes look a little tired now and then. One kitr.-an old favirite, really includes a lotion to wash away dust and dirt: cream to erect fine lines and wrinkles; sterilized pads to be moistened in warm water and placed on closed lides to relieve fatigue and eve strain.
 If you have bad cold or if you have been crying, use every item in the kit before going out, then see how much better you look. Wash eyes with lotion, smooth on the special cream, place the moist ened pads over lids and rest for twenty minutes, keeping eyes closed. For hands, elbows, knees and arms, there's new, rich hand cream. This is not expensive, so you can use it lavishly, and it really does make the skin into which it is massaged smooth and clean. Incidentally, it's of vanishing cream consistency and leaves no oily de- posits to mar your gloves.
