BY HELEN VOGT.

Even if you've checked off Cousin
Anne, Aunt Mary and Grandma, it
wouldn't surprise us a bit If there
weren't a number of names still left
on your Christmas list. BY this time
you are no doubt squarely in the
middle of holiday shopping, and such
problems as what to buy the cute
little girl next door or the distant
cousin who owns practically every
thing still remain to be solved.
In which case your safest solution
is to take yourself down to see some
of the Christmas cosmetics, and
though we are not a prophet, it
should be fairly safe to predict that
herein lies the answer to many Ques-
tions.
For the girl who has everything
there are a number of entrancing
gifts. Things that she would prob
ably never buy for herself ). For
example, there is the charming little
wire basket that looks exactly like
the contraption the milkman carries.
1t contains eight tiny milk bottles
filled with a milk bath preparation
made by leading cosmetic firm.
The preparation, put into bath
water, foams and bubbles and makes
you feel like a very pampered lady,
and the wire basket might make an
ideal tray for serving beverages
after you've used up the milk bath
The same firm-they're going in for
uyira ho skotS- hoe introduced q h;rd
cage which you might eventually
turn into a home for Pete, the
canary. However, its original pur-
pose at this point is to contain an
amazing number of bath prepara-
tions-powders, colognes and other
luxuries done up in this attractive
container, tied with red ribbon, and
jingling happily with little gold bells.
A gift that should make any woman
shout with joy ....
Especially for the holiday season,
another well-known firm has brought
out a toilet water that makes you
feel "Christmasy" just to listen to
the name. 1t is really a delightful
fragrance done in streamlined
bottle with gay cerise cap and label
As If this were not enough, it comes
all ready to present-completely
wrapped in a cellophane covering
with gay red stickers and the name
written over and over on the cover.
1t should be life-saver to those of
us who are all fingers and thumbs
when 1t comes to wrapping dainty
gifts.
Nothing. we always decide. is
more practical and at the same time
more attractive, than a manicuring
set. There are a number of beau
tiful ones on the market at this
season and, frankly. they are suita-
BILE for every one from great-grand-
mother down to 13-year-old jamie.
One tnat we especially like is a
Upper case of white washable fabric
with place for monogram. 1t
contains polish. remover and polish
base, as we'll as cotton and a num-
Der Of the essential manicuring
implements. Another particularly
attractive style in the very mod
erately priced selection is the one
that resembles an observatory
rounded on the top to look like
that type of building. 1t also con-
tains polish, remover. cuticle re-
mover and the necessary equipment
for manicuring. Either of these two
are perfect gifts for any woman
and both are surprisingly low in
price.
No matter how we try, we can't
seem to avoid telling you about the
Christmas perfumes. The latest are

Can I ride my velocipede?"
"If you promise to stay in front of
your own house, and not 60 of the
block, you can. But remember, you
stay where I can see you"
"Yesm."
Frankie was willing to promise
anything if 1t meant he was free to
ride on the sidewalk. People passed
along the walk and he could say
Hello" to them and they could smile
down at him and say Hello" back.
That meant a great deal to Frankie
who was desolate without human
companionship.
Then. of course, Jimmy and Paul
came out, and they had their wheels.
Hi, frankie. Come on over"
Frankie's wheels threw out sparks in
their speed to get there. The three
velocipedes made a fine train, too
fine and speedy train, and much
too big, to stay on one little block.
Quite without thought it made its
way down the long avenue. blocks,
10 blocks, before it reached the sta
tion-the traffic light at the head of
Main street. Here the train was
headed back toward the home depot.
Mother looked out after a time, to
make sure that frankie was in front
Of the house. He wasn't in sight.
The street was bare of children for
blocks. She hurried down to Jim
mys house. No. Jimmy wasn't home.
Probably out with Paul and
Frankie, his mother said calmly.
The same word at Paul's house. No,
he wasn't about. Maybe down street
with the other two. Mother was not
only worried now, she was provoked
to wrath by the GOODNESS of the other
two mothers. If they didn't care
where their children were, she did,
and she would see to it that frankie
stayed where she could see him If it
was the last thing she did on earth.
But she couldn't find frankie.
No. the officer at the traffic light
had not seen any children cross his
street and he would certainly have
seen them had they tried to do so.
Oh, now that he thought of it, three
kids on velocipedes had stopped on
the other side of the street and had
gone up Hamilton street. Could
fhnv ha thu eI
Up Hamilton street went mother,
anger lending speed to her heels.
You see, Hamilton street paralleled
her own street, and the train had
decided to go around and make a
circular track of 1t. BY the time
mother had arrived on her own
block she got word that the train
had just left the station. When
Frankie got home, late for lunch,
he was spanked. And his velocipede
was put in the cellar for one solid
week.
A child of needs playfellows. If
you are afraid Of his going out of
sight of home don't give him a
velocipede; or If you do, don't let
him out without escort. Riding
under escort is not exactly a 5-year-
olds idea of fun. If the neighbor-
hood is safe, let him go along with
his crowd. If not, don't provide the
means for his own hurt. But above
all, remember that, the nature of q
small boy is to seek the companion
ship Of other little boys and provide
for it. Mothers of such a group
have to cooperate to insure their
happiness and safety.

1t is almost a 10-to-1 bet that
your beau will give you perfume
this Christmas, so in your own
clever fashion, you might lust as
well let him know which brews YOU
prefer!
OF course, I do not mean that
you must take the pleasure out of
his surprise by requesting that he
give you perfume. But you might
get over to him that such or such
a fragrance is more suited to you
than such or such!
Men should be informed that
even the finest perfumes can be
bought in small quantities and it
Will please his sweetheart more if
he presents her with one ounce of
exquisite fragrance than 10 ounces
OF something which has a ques-
tionable fragrance. How delighted
a woman can be with a brew which
exactly suits her most frequent
mood or the personality she shows
the world! For perfume must be
appropriate to the individual to
scatter any charm at all.
II you have several beaus pre-
senting you with several fragrances
you will not have to bother your
pretty little head over this problem.
But if the one perfume gift is likely
to be scent which would drive
you frantic every time you tried
to wear it-then you will have to
devise some means OF instructinc
your man! If he wishes to, let him
write me about you and III try to
steer him straight! I must know
your age and what you like to do.
There are some pretty safe buys that
are universally liked, and we Can

WlfeS value as social stand in.
For every husband expects his wife
to write his letters to his mother
and tell her that he is so overworked
he doesn't have time to write him
self, although he has six secretaries
and a dictaphone in his Office. And
he expects her to tell all of his white
lies when he wants to get out of
going to boring party. He ex-
poets her to write all of his notes of
condolences and congratulations and
to send the flowers that should be
sent and the kilograms. He expects
her to buy the Christmas presents
and wedding gifts and generally
keep up his reputation for being a
charming and well-mannered gen.
tleman.
No other press agent is worth so
much to q man as a wife. No one
else can build him up as she can,
for somehow we take a husband at
his wife's valuation. Half of the
reputation OF every professional man
rests upon the things his wife has
babbled about him across a bridge
table and at the sewing circle when
she told how great and wonderful
and wise and successful he was.
It is these by-products of a wife,
so to speak. as well as her domes-
ITCHY and thrift and industry and
affection and loyalty that we have
to take into consideration when we
try to estimate how much a wife is
worth. Few men ever sit down and
try to figure it out, but it is observa-
BILE that most men marry again as
soon as their wives die.
