was on. Do you wonder the I'm
fortunate man rushed from the
house, leaving the belligerents
to settle the Matchmaking ques-
ton in their own belligerent
way.
The Solution
The simple solution would
have been to have had moist
hash one time and dry the next,
or to have been good sports
about it and drawn lots.
Window drapery as a cyclone
raiser is almost the equivalent
of politics, religion or how to
rear children. Some women
want straight curtains, others
want them draped. Why not
have them straight in one room
and Topped in the other?
If mothers-in-law would treat
their sons wives as they do
their own daughters, it would be
the beginning of the millennium
And if daughters-in-law would
only shed that immemorial chip
on their shoulders, before enter
ing into relations with hus-
bands mothers, fewer wrinkles
in foreheads would result.

SIGNING REGISTER

'Dear Mrs. Beeckman:
when a man is signing a
hotel register for himself and
his wife, how should he sign?
"Is it considered poor form to
add a postscript to a letter?
"Is it ever proper to write a
letter in pencil?
"The other day I heard some
one say that it is not correct to
use 'subjectlesS sentences in
writing a letter. What does this
mean?
What is the correct signature
for a woman to use for a bust
ness letter?
EAGER TO LEARN"
The man signs the register:
Mr.. and Mrs. John Allon,
High City, Fla.
PostScripts to letters are not
in good form.
A letter should never be writ
ten in pencil unless it is abso-
lutely necessary to do this. In
valids often have to do this, but
this is about the only valid rea-
son for using pencil.
I am glad that you asked this
question, for SubjectlesS SEN

Children
Food Habits
Of Babies
BY GLADYS BEVANS

There have been too many let
tiers lately on the too-prevalent
problem of poor eating among
the younger children! We have
this from one letter:
"My Dear Mrs. BevanS:
my baby seems to be a fin
icky eater. She will not eat
eggs or cereal. She will not
drink milk and has not done so
for several months. She has me
terribly worried.
"She eats the food on the fam
lily table. as I have had to give
up her own special diet because
she did not care for it,"
Some "Hate" Milk
Anyone with experience knows
that there are some children
who care very little for milk and
some who can't get too much Of
it They'll go into their teens
drinking a quart and a half or
more a day. However. unless
there is some physiological rea-
son for avoiding it, children
should have milk in their diet.
Now, there are several ways in
which the eating habits of this
2-vear-old might be approached.
Let us choose one that is die
tated by common sense, the COM
mon sense that we have been
suggesting parents use in this
connection.
When a child turns against
certain food. it is a good plan to
give him a vacation from it.
Although We think of cereals,
eggs and milk as among the es-
sentials, if a child has devel-
oped an aversion for them. stop
serving them temporarily, No
real harm is done in that way.
Try Junkets
But if you're anxious, present
them all in thoroughly disguised
forms. What about junket. and
custardS, and buildings, and not
too rich homemade ice cream?
What about a warm drink with
a milk base served in a cup and
saucer like daddy'S? What about
simple whole wheat cookies, muf-
fins, baking powder breads, cold,
crackly cereals with little fresh
cup of fruit and slight powder
ing of sugar? What about thick
slices of whole wheat bread
toasted in the oven golden
brown, and buttered?

NOTE OF THANKS

Dear Mrs. BeecKman:
To-day is my third day home
from the hospital after having
had a major operation. I re-
ceived many beautiful flowers.
Should I write a personal note of
thanks to each one thanking for
the flowers? # so, what sort OF
letter should I write? Please give
me a sample. 49,"
Yes, to each one of these kind
friends you would write a note
of thanks, Worded something like
this:
Dear Dorothy:
What an ever-thoughtful and
kind friend you are! The box Of
seasonal flowers were gloriously
beautiful, and what a message
of friendlinesS and cheer they
brought with them as they came
to me in the hospital. They
made the room land my heart,
too,) glow with their radiant
colors and their gay spirit.
Thank you, with all my heart,
for them and for your goodness
to me.
I'm at home now, and I do
hope that as soon as you can you
will come to see me. I want so
much to chat with you.

Girls with shining noses and
beaming foreheadS yearn for
a complexion of dull finish.
They do lot Of complaining
about this beauty grief.
They must find the right
face powder. One with an oily
base only makes matters worse.
A powder of light consistency
produces a satisfying effect. It
must be applied sparingly,
never ground in with the pad:
that practice enrages the Seba-
ceous glands.
In the Morning
A dry-cleaning with eau de
cologne is a help. Pour a few
drops on a moistened cloth and
go over the skin surface. Don't
do it after the soapy washing
when the skin is sensitive.
The best time is in the
morning after the face has
been rinsed with cold water.
Cold water and alcohol act as
astringents.
Sebaceous glands have to
work hard when the diet in
cludes a surplus of rats. They
ease up and rest if green
salads are eaten and if plenty
of fruit juices are included in
the diet. When they are over
active, the pores become coarse.
Hammer Toe
Those of you who wear
spiked heels, crowd your toes
into narrow shoes should keep
in mind that you are in danger
of getting a hammer toe,"
which is a dreadful affliction.
If the middle toe is crowded
between its neighborS, don't
waste any time. Get wide
shoes with lower heels. It may
be necessary to wear prescrip-
ton shoes. The only cure for q
hammer toe is surgery.

with another wire to the daugh-

Her daughter-in-law liked one

she liked another. When the
granddaughter came to visit

suggested the kind she used.
The little girls were recalled.
It wasn't the securing powder,
as the daughter-in-law said, but
"the principle of it," AS if any
thing so utterly foolish had the
most remote relationship to prin-
ciple.
Hash was the point of cleav-

liked it dry, crisp, with a brown
crust. Mother-in-law like d

home, should the man, when

regard the introduction unless

Yes, the man, in this circum-

express his pleasure in the intro
