pendable about bringing results.
 Why, for instance, don't they spend a little of the time they give their mirrors thinking about the people who are likely to be at the party they're dressing for, and what they have to say to them?
 Why don't girls see that a twinkle in the eye will attract more men than any number of wrinkles from expensive sequins?
 Why don't they realize that a man is seldom intrigued by a girl, no matter how beautiful, who is so impressed by the impression she is hoping to make that she looks at him without seeing him?
 Why can't girls understand while they are still young that a certain amount of forgetfulness of beauty is essential if they are to draw others to them?
 It's strange how long it takes us women to realize that what men look for when they look at us is a pleasing reflection of themselves. And if they don't find it, then it doesn't much matter what we look like. "Yes, shes pretty enough, but" they'll say.
 For glamor is what glamor does to others.

 Your Children
By Olive Roberts Barton

The attitude" of children de- bends largely on what they are trained to consider important, but not altogether so. One child with. dirty hands won't be conscious of them at all; another will worry be- cause he doesn't like stickiness; but still another will run and wash of the muck lest he spoil things he touches. St'
 was calling on friend who had asked me in to see the children'S tree. One small girl, fussing about under the branches, knocked of a glass ball. A lovely big blue one, now it was a humpty-dumpts wreck on the floor.
 Her mother started to say some. thing about the prettiest ornament of all being lost, but Joan, not yet five, said quickly, "I'n clean it up, mother" She got a small broom and big duStpan. She went about sweeping up the fragments as care- fully and thoroughly as an experi- enced housewife. was charmed at the way she circled the mess, gently urging the tiny scraps into a neat. pile and then edging them over oa~ to the pan. Such a tidy child, she should be put into poem like Goody Two Shoes or something.
 Big Sisters Reaction
 Her sister came in then and began to wall because the heavenly blue ball had met its end. ~s
 "The prettiest one on all the treeP she cried. You would have to spoil my favorite ornament" e
 Would Dorothy have swept 1t up as quickly and quietly as Joan" I had to ask later, when the chit- dren had left. And their mother said, T wonder if you noticed. NC, she wouldn't. She would have fused and carried on, but someone else would have had to pick up the pieces. The girls are so unlike, al- though there is only year and a half difference in their ages. s+
 "When Dorothy was very little, we lived with my mother. Dorothy did not see me worry about keeping things nice, and besides she was not with me SO much. Joan has been my constant companion since we started housekeeping by ourselves, and she has been conditioned guess you call it, to order and helping to keep things neat. a
 Initiative Effect ns
 "She copied me and now it is second nature. She went and got her broom. right away, instead of stop ping to think of any loss, as you noticed. Dorothy is learning but she will never be as responsible about the house as her little sister.
 "It is fine, but natural for such a little child to housekeeper," I said,
 "She is like Daye's mother. a good bit. so think she inherits 1t partly, but isn't it interesting how children differ in their attitudes to things"
 It stayed in my mind. I am pass ing it along to other parents. To understand a child, isn't it wise to observe these attitudes? We cannot weigh one with the same seals we use for another. They are different in the way they look at things. Even conditioning won't have the identical results. We could not stan dardize all children even if every minute of every day were duplicated in their handling. Copyright. 1888, NEA Service Inc).

.BEAUTY-
 GIorifing
 Yourself
By Alicia Hart
NEA service Stan Writer

The day you notice that your nails are splitting and peeling or ] that the cuticle around them IS rough and dry, get busy immediate ly with beauty routines to correct the condotion. Nothing mars the appearance of hands more that rag ged cuticle or unhealthy looking nails.
 Perhaps there is a decided lack of calcium in your diet. Have you been drinking milk, buttermilk and orange juice, eating cheese? These four items, you know, are rich in calcium. Fresh vegetables and crish, green salads contain calcium, too. You might, for one month, have one large glass of orange juice in the morning, a glass of buttermilk or sweet milk for lunch and another for dinner, and more green vege- tables and salads than you have been in the habit of eating. Get small jar of cuticle cream and use it every night. If, after two weeks, cuticle isn't smooth and even and soft, try using warm olive oil. Simply cleanse carefully with soap and water, dry thoroughly, then massage the warm oil into finger tips, hands and wrists. Put on clean loose cotton gloves and wear them all night.
 You might stop using nail lac- quer for two or three weeks, buf- fling the nails instead. Never, never, cut cuticle or allow anyone to scrape the surface of a nail with a steel instrument. And do not let your manicurist use clippers except to snap away ragged edges. Callouses near the tips of the nail should not be cut either. Wear them away, gradually, of course, with a bit of pomice. Do not cut corners of the nails too short, either. Leaving part of the corners makes for breadth, and breath often makes the nail stronger and prevents splitting.
