Hints on
Hand Care
For Young
Habitual Gro lin 6
Should Be Inspired
at Early A ge.
BY ANGELO PATRI.

7 ovELY hands are greatly to be
coveted. There is nobody so dead
to beauty's touch as not to appreciate
the beauty of a lovely hand. It is
true that every pair of hands differs
from every other pair in the world,
but that does not say that every
pair cannot have its own degree Of
beauty. Classic beauty-that is, the
beauty measured by the artists scales
is rare. which is no calamity. Real
beauty which is a matter of intelli-
gence, is common and something to
cheer about.
Hands express the intelligence OF
their owners. The quality OF the
intelligence varies with each indivi-
dual, but it is always beautiful, always
interesting. The sturdy hand OF the
artisan, skilled in his trade, has a
beauty of its own. So has the sur
geon's hand, the musicians, the
cooks the gardeners. Only the hand OF
the idle person lacks beauty and in
terest. Those young people who would
have beautiful hands, then, take notice.
$tUse them. Train them. Take care
of them.
Young girls who cannot be expected
, TO understand about the quality OF
the intelligence which hands express
are afraid to spoil their hands by
using them. Mothers have been
known to warn their daughters against
using their hands for work about the
house lest they spoil them. Work does
not spoil hands. Neglect will lnJure
them, but not the work our young
people are called upon to do. House.
work, gardening, caring for the car
painting the window screens, building
the porch, will never hurt their hands
Such work will beautify them by set
ting the light of intelligence within
them. Use and beauty ought always
to live together.
Hands that are used with intelll-
eence have the healthy power that one
likes to feel in a good handshake
That cool, firm, sure grip is the unmls'
taxable sign of a mind that is work
ing smoothly, accurately, successfully
Steady work calls for careful groom
ing of ones hands. Use warm water
and a soap that is easy on your skin
When you use a brush use a soft ONT
and be gentle about it. Rinse off the
soap with clear, warm water. DR.!
gently. Push back the skin about tht
nails. Rub the hands with lotior
your hands seem to like. If you dc
this day by day, working as the work
comes and giving your hands the care
they need, they will be beautiful.
Cleanliness is always the first law oi
beauty as it is of health.

~ NE of the problems that
doubtlessly originated when
Cain and Abel first went
~ accounting is how much right
parents have to interfere in their
children's love affairs and pick out
their mates for them.
Fathers and mothers have always
believed that they had a right to
regiment their sons and daughters
hearts and direct their affections in
the proper channels, while the chill
dren have contended that. as they
were the ones who had to live with
those they married, it was their priv
ilege to please their own taste, and
not their parents. And so the battle
has ragged on from generation to gen.
Grafton, and Is still going strongly.
Unfortunately, the question can
never be settled, because there Is so
much to be said on both sides OF it,
and one argument seems about as
convincing as the other. Certainly
parents speak no less than the truth
when they tell their children that 1t
takes more than a passing gust OF
passion, or a fancy for pretty face,
or a bit of hero worship for gridiron
star to make a happy marriage; that
romance does not last and that only
marriages stand the wear and tear OF
life that are built upon solid founda-
ton of common sense and reason and
the ability to supply family with
three square meals a day.
DARENTS are also justified in try
ing to keep their adolescent chill
dren from committing hari kari by
making premature marriages before
they are old enough to know what
they are going to be themselves when
they grow up, much less what they
are going to want regarding a hus-
band or wife. And it is their bounden
duty to move heaven and earth to
keep Mary from wrecking her life by
marrying a drunkard. or John from
tying a milestone around his neck by
picking out some little fiibbertigibbet
without heart or brains for wife.
It is folly to contend that parents
have no right to any say-so in their
children,s marriages, because not only
are a fathers and mothers happiness
wrapped up in their children and they
are made miserable if John and Mary
are unhappy, but when their chill
dren's marriages turn out failures
they must pay the price of their chill
dren's mistake. You can't let your
adored son or daughter starve, sc

bound to take her in and divide their
income with her, no matter now
meager it is.
We all know dozens of men and
women who a-e the real victims OF
their children's divorces. Tom and
Sally can't get along with their wife
or husband, so they part and dump
down their children as a matter OF
course on their parents. Mother IS
turned into a nursemaid. Father has
to keep on working after he had
planned to retire and take life easy.
The quiet house is turned into bedlum
by noisy youngsters. The income that
was comfort for two means pinchlng
economies when it has to be spread
over the diets and doctors bills and
education Of children.
+ X y
THAT is one side OF the question.
= But, say the children, our parents
give no inspiring example of con-
nubial bliss themselves, so what guar
antee have we that they would be
more successful in picking out our
husbands and wives for us than they
were in picking out their own? Be
sides, husbands and wives are purely
matter of taste. It doesn't really
matter what you get just so 1t Is the
thing that suits you, and our likes
no more jibe with our parents in peo-
pie than they do in food and the
movies.
The very quality that appeals to us
in a boy or girl may be anathema
to our parents. Every mother woulo
pick out for her son nice. quiet, do
mestic girl, who is kind to her OLD
mother, who would never waste his
money on frivolous gewgaws or want
to step out anywhere except to prayer
meeting, but that kind of a wife
would bore the son to tears. He wants
as a life companion woman who L
pretty and gay and on her tiptoes and
who would keep him always inter-
ested and excited.
Every father would select for his
daughters husband a middle-aged
settled man with bay window and q
big bank account, when what the CIR
wanted was somebody to give her 9
thrill, not pay her bills. And the bet
ting is ten to nothing that after she
got tired of yawning in the face Of 9

to Reno.
