as powder base They tell us that
one weeks trial will show you a
great improvement.
New Product Called
Faux des Herbes.
If you're looking for something
really new and different in the way
of fragrance, you'll be interested
in refreshing product that is
neither perfume nor cologne. In
stead, it is blend of fine green
herbs with alcohol which has been
aged for at least 40 years, and it
is one of the most delightful aromas
we've found. Because of its rare
formula, only few drops are re-
quired, and you'll find that while
it has lovely fragrance, it will
not conflict with your favorite per-
fume For use after the bath or
even in the tub, it's delightful, and
a small amount on a handkerchief
will refresh you throughout the
day. OF course, we must say
word about the bottle In the form
of blue jug tied with red, white
and blue ribbon and adorned with
an impressive red seal, 1t will make
a novel and lovely addition to your
dressing table display. This type
of luxury makes a distinctive gift,
if you can part with 1t.
And speaking of distinctive items
which is one way of getting to a
new paragraph-we'd like to call
your attention to new shade of
makeup that promises to be one
of the outstanding colors. 1t was
originated by famous beauty ex-
pert when she first saw the trend
to clear red in fashion. This make
up, confined to lipstick and nail
polish, is a clear brilliant color
which has inspired a number of
coutieriers in creating their fall
collections Such magic names as
Glare Potter, the famous American
designer, are connected with this
color, a delightfully."- startling one
with black and all the new fall
shades in fashion It's no news
to women that the right share of
makeup can change ones entire
appearance. Don't be confused by
the name, which sounds as though
it might be pale, delicate shade.
In reality, it's a vivid red that will
go on smoothly and enhance your
entire outfit.
Coiffures Show Some
Slight Variation.
Just word about the first hair
dressing news for fall.
1t seems that the Couture Guild
of New York met last week and
chose the new cascade" coiffure as
smart style for this season. An
adaptation of the 1880 mode, it
shows the back of the neck and will
reflect the modified upward trend.
The hairline must be shown at both
front and sides, with the back often
swirled to give height. and length
will be from three to six inches,
varying all over the head. This
new style which continues the up
ward trend, stresses the Importance
of individuality, as we'll as reflect
ing the DEGREES of fashion for bustle-
back dresses and forward interest in
hats. Evening styles will be ex-
treme with puffs, rolls, curls and
much ornamentation. Even a new
hair shade has been selected, red
dish blond hue called cascade
blond"
That's the beginning of the news.
What it will develop into is hard
to say, but we'll keep you informed.

saw, grandpa wants me to sweep
up those leaves"
"Well?"
"And 1 don't want to-"
"Well?"
''Why should II"
would it hurt you? Or any
body else if you did? You have
nothing to do really, have you?
Why shouldn't you sweep up those
leaves as your grandfather asked?
1t would please him, make the
place look better and so please the
other people"
"Why should I care? I don't
want anybody telling me to do
something just to please him, or
anybody else. If I want to do it,
all right. If not, not"
You're the only one that counts?
Nobody else? What you think,
what you feel, what you want
that's ALP"
We'll. if I don't think about my

up to date your mother has

your father, and your relatives,
the neighbors and friends. You'd
be dead and buried if they hadn't,
long ago. You'd 60 without sup

family and the community and the
Nation had not looked out for you.
But the only one you can see is
yourself. ME. Where would ME
get all alone? You'd better do
little thinking. This is a lonely
world when your friends turn their
backs on you
Just the same"
20, grow up. Even the baby
holds out his hands to help his
mother wash them, opens his mouth
to be fed. You're being less than
infantile. The answer to your propo-
sition is a wheel chair in the hos

where the MES all end"
Don't let children get that way.
It is dangerous to let them center
on themselves to such an extent
that they resent other people and
their needs. They must learn to
share life in all its phases with
all who come their way If they
are to be healthy. A healthy mind
is the greatest power child can
cultivate in his search for success
full living.
Aunt Caroline asked Benjie to
pick up a painful of apples. He
said he didn't feel like it, so she
picked them herself and made the
pie. 1t was a fine one, perfumed
with apples and cinnamon, flaky

laid on each piece crowned it ap-
propriately. Benjie's eyes shone
and his mouth watered when he
saw the pieces being cut and passed
When none came his way he said,

WIlOOpS Ol lduSllltT GIldG SEEM part
and parcel of childhood, the ma
jority of us welcome the hours of
quiet that descend on us for the
early part of the day. There is more
time to do the thousand and one
chores that seem to occupy the
housekeeper in the fall; there is
definitely less wear and tear on the
nervous system and the premises;
and the blessed peace of routine
encompasses the daily life once more.
But, in one or two instances, Ger
tain chores are simply exchanged
for others. Although mother may
be able to turn the midday meal into
a cup of tea and leftover cold meat
for herself, instead of bangup
dinner for the youngsters-she still
must cope with the problem of the
school lunch box, unless other ar
rangements have been made in spe-
cific cases. And that school lunch
box can be an awful thorn in any
housekeeper's flesh-for its contents
must be varied enough to interest
the child: monotony must be avoid
ed like poison, for without the zest
of change no child will eat of his
own accord-and a balanced diet
must also be furnished every day.
Cleanliness Is
Essential.
To begin with, all the lunchbox
equipment must be kept scrupu-
lousy clean. The tin kits" con-
tanning thermos bottles, sandwich
cases, custard cups, or what have
you, are inexpensive and most eff
cient-but great care must be taken
to see that no food is left in them
over night, and that they are thor
oughly washed and left open to air
to dry and keep sweet.
The moment that the child returns
from school it should be his or her
chore to open the box. empty it of
any leftovers, and either wash 1t
we'll himself, under supervision or
subsequent checkup, or place it
where mother or the maid can at
tend to it as soon as possible
When filling the case and its COM
partments in the morning use
Waxed paper as much as possible
to keep the containers from need
less "muss." Be sure that the hot
liquids are not lukewarm-nor yet
too scalding hot. in case the child
hasn't time to wait for them to cool
sufficiently. Cold liquids should be
chilled, but not iced.
Wash the box and its containers

Fresh Cookies

Refrigerator cookies are baked as
needed, so that it is easy to have
fresh cookies to serve in a few min
utes. The roll of cookie dough,
wrapped in waxed paper, may be
kept in the refrigerator for several
days. To make dainty tea cookies,
shape the dough into rolls about
inch in diameter. Or store a
ball of dough, and when ready to
bake make little marbles" of the
dough. These spread on the cookie
sheet during baking make dainty
little round cookies.
