Manners
of the
Moment

ONE thing over which older women
froth at the mouth is being
offered seats by younger women.
They do, that is, unless they're over
30.
The trouble is that a younger wonl-
ans rising has all the earmarks of a
dirty crack. She obviously considers
herself young and the other woman
old And if that isn't dirty crack,
we don't know one when we hear one.
OF course. one woman may be older
than the other. But she doesn't want
q couple of gray hairs thrown in her
teeth that way. And unless she's lame,
burdened down with babies or carry
ing home a basket Of hens, she's not
going to accept the seat. Not If she
has any spunk left.
The same animosity is aroused be-
tween older and younger women when
the younger woman rises, along with
the men, as an older woman comes
into a room. 1t used to be said, to
be sure, that the younger woman
should always rise for her elders. But
elders these days don't like being
called elders. So we'd say, in gen.
eral, that unless you're under 20, and
the older woman is over 80, stay put.
Unless, Of course, she's your grand
mother, and she knows you know her
age. JEAN.

apron strings and marry the girl he
loves, you won't be losing much in
not getting him for husband. Al
ways he would be putting his mother
before you. Always she would be
first with him. Always she would be
pitying him because the poor darling
had to work so hard to support his
wife and children. And always she
would be thinking that you should
make a slave Of yourself to him, even
II at long last he did marry you And
there is no comfort and happiness in
that sort Of marriage.
Human selfshness can 90 no farther
than is shown by the possessive
mother who denies her children all
right to their own lives and to love
and marriage in order to keep them
with her, and because she cannot bear
TO share them with any one else. She
herself has married. She has had the
happiness that came from the COM
panionship Of good husband She
has known the comfort a woman has
in having a strong arm to lean on.
She has known the joy Of having baby
heads upon her breast and the interest
of watching little children grow up
and develop. But in her self-centered
egotism she has denied her daughter
all of this and doomed her to q
lonely, loveless old maidenhood with
only the company of a minded,
complaining old woman who enslaves
her children by the tyranny Of tears.
And she is planning the same fate
for her son. Unless he is weakling
without one inch of backbone, he
won't stand for it. He will grab you
and run to the parson and tell her
about it afterWard. And, after she
has had one spell of Mysteries, which
won't hurt her particle, everything
will be all right.

She has such funny ways. Never

Not me. She's fond of cats. I

DO I? I should say I did I

about girl who likes cats the way
she does. Even the boys don't seem

That's one reason we're against her.
After all, she's a stranger, and a
foreigner, and you might think she
would be-Well, you know, more shy.
She just goes along and never bothers.
Rather ignorant, I'd say"
1T seems to me that you are being
unkind, not to say intolerant. You
haven't said kind word for that girl
this afternoon, and yet you haven't
brought single charge against her
that would allow you to judge her
harshly.
What difference does it make to
you whether she wears a hat or not?
Or how she eats her tomatoes? Or
what nationality her people are? I
should think that what you would be
interested in was her manners, her
attitudes, her general behavior. I
don't like to hear you picking on

Sift the flour and salt together:

milk to make a very stiff dough. Beat
the dough with rolling pin, or mallet,

come especially for making beaten
biscuits which lessen the labor con-
siderably. Roll the dough to 1h-inch

Oil in the

Constant Applications
Are Needed to Keep
the Skin Supple.
BY ELSIE PIERCE.

A~A<SAI AAAsSAs
T SINCERELY feel that If the aver
age woman spending Summer at
the beach were to give as much
thought and care to the upkeep Of
her beauty as do women spending
their Winter at popular beaches, the
results would be quite as gratifying.
Last Winter at Palm Beach and
Miami, for instance, practically every
bathing beauty had a coat Of tan
from the mellow, honey, golden tan to
deep bronze. But there was no evil
dence of coarseness. of that leathery
look. of dryness and shrivelling or
puckering. No sign Of peeling. Just
an even, soft, smooth-as- silk healthful
looking tan.
And no secret as to how the tan
with softness was achieved. Every
woman at those beaches, and the
men, too, carried bottle of oil. 1t
was part and parcel of the beach
| paraphernalia. 1t came, side by side,
with the bathing cap or the beach
coat, shoes or towel. Looking around
you, you'd see person after person
| amounting himself or herself with oil,
| or better yet, having some one else do
it-over arms, shoulders, back, legs.
1t may be true that people at Winter
resorts have more leisure for their
| beauty needs. But whether one has
a week end, week or the entire
| Summer to spend at the beach. it is
the part of foresight to come equipped
with oil or cream that will encourage
satin smoothness with suntan, but
none Of the painful burning, blistering.
peeling, ragged, cracked, coarsened
effect that comes with exposure and
without compensating care.
| There are any number of beauty
oils put up in beautiful packages
:. in spill-proof bottles, in canteens,
in cases that look as though they
shelter binoculars.
| The devotees Of the old-fashioned
vinegar and oil combination do not
seem to have dwindled the past few
years. The skin is moistened with
household cider vinegar which is per-
mitted to dry. Then the skin is
massaged with pure olive or mineral
oil. Coconut oil is good, too. Blot
the excess with tissue and as soon
as the oil is absorbed or evaporated,
apply more. I have found it salts
factory to apply just little and keep
adding, rather than apply too much
which gives the skin a shiny, oily look
and feeling, and the excess does no
additional good
Remember this: that if your skin
is inclined to be dry or average, it will
become more dry when exposed to the
sun, as exposure tends to extract some

sets OF the Old emma. but rare ana
lovely odd pieces are always the Joy
Of the collectors heart.
During my wanderings in the vari-
Gus shops I found two handsome
Lowestoft platters, of old. BLUSH
white. with a colorful border of red
and gold, surrounding a large coat
of arms in the center. There seems
to be a difference of opinion as to
where LoWestoft china was made.
Many claim that it was made in the
little coastal town of LoWestoft, and
then sent to China to be decorated
owing to the beautiful workmanship
and the low cost Of labor (even in
those days., while the latest theory
Is that the china and decorations
were both produced in the Orient.
On the very, very old china, histo-
rians differ. due to the lack of writ
ten accounts, but they do agree that
china was introduced to England and
the Continent from that far-off land,
and that is why it is known as china ~
Many of the sets that were brought to
Europe were beautifully decorated,
While others were sent plain, and
painted when they reached their des-
tination.
Another interesting old piece, seen
recently, is an eighteenth century
bowl, similar in size and shape to the
modern medium-size salad bowl.
There are two old-time scenes on the
inside of the bowl, and a crest in
the center, has the inscription, The
Arms of the Ancient Fraternity Of
Free and Accepted Masons."
I also found lovely Wedgwood urn
Of the famous blue and white Jasper
ware. that was made some time be-
tween 1880 and 1900. There are also
pieces of modern Jasper ware, which
are copies of the old, and in a local
shop there is lovely Portland vase
black with graceful white figures.
