Some Mothers Jealous

Yes, It is possible. for there Is
nothing about motherhood that
kills the seed Of vanity In woman's
nature. A vain girl grows up into
vain, or vainer. woman. There un-
doubtedly are mothers who are
jealous of their daughters - not
only Of their own daughters. but
every other woman's daughter. the
good looking ones at least; women
who, in short. are jealous Of youth
and very resentful because OF their
own waning attractions.
One surely should be able to un-
derstand and have q certain SYM
pathy for q beauty who has to smile
though 1t nearly kills her, when
someone says she must have been
good-looking once. or some such
backhanded compliment. But one
cannot have sympathy for woman
who Is vain and silly enough to see
herself competing with youth, or
one who Is treacherous enough to
take her hurt vanity out on her own
daughter.
One would naturally think that q
beautiful woman would glory in the
beauty Of her children. Strangely
enough. the daughters of most
beautiful women cannot compare
with their mothers. Many beautiful
mothers produce ugly ducklings. or
girls nothing like as attractive as
they were in youth. Some mothers
are. In middle life. lovelier than
their daughters. A really beautiful
girl grows better looking. a merely
pretty girl owes much to youth,
which she realizes as youth goes.

Drugged During Illness

Most Of these habits are acquired

OF manneQulnS wearing clothes

their finest, had been built. This

champs and other Paris race
courses, while some men, with a
bow to Ascot, appeared in tradi-
tional gray toppers, eScorting some
of the mannequins. No matter how
casual fashion may be. when it
comes to race meets it's formality

In such restricted space there's
only time for a tabloid report as,
for instance, that slim young
things were in suits and less slim
and less youthful things were in
ensembles. usually involving a
print with plain coat or t'other
way around. Hats were everything
hats should be. and some that they
shouldn't. BrimS were worn often.
but there were doll-like hats, too,
and few calots.
Candidly. the display put on by
mannequins sent out by stores
quite eclipsed the private clientele
of the same houses. but it was
ever thus in Paris. White was out
standing, not in entire costumes
of course, but for incidental
touches and for hats which can

He Invented WAY
To Mark Wash
1nvisibly
By TALBOT LAKE

A BOUT Is years ago Thomas A.
"A Carothers of Cincinnati. Ohio.
and few others. dreamed Of ma
chine that would stamp big. indeli-
BILE laundry marks on clothes, yet
the marks could not be seen by the
public. Impossible? Not at all, and
Mr.. Carothers' company. the Ma
tional Marking Machine Co., Is
now proceeding to prove It.
Not to be too technical. a print
ing device stamps on each piece OF
wash, anywhere at all. q device
sort Of separate cattle brand for
each laundry-and the customers
private number. However. the ink is
as colorless as water. You see MOTH

piece under q special mercury vapor
light and the stamping CLOVIS pur-
pie like neon sign.

other" said Mr.. Carothers. I'VE

okay. but not remain indelible.
Finally. one day. quite by accident.
we stumbled on 1t. i've years ago.
Then we had to hire chemists and
whatnot to tell us how 1t was DONE"
His marking device has been sold
all over the world. But most impor-
tant Is the unsupported use Of It in
criminal investigation. For in
stance, q woman abandoned baby
in q pillow slip, from which she
thought she had removed the laun-
dry marks. The police passed the
pillow case under the trick light. a
mark showed up bright purple and
the laundry company was found.
Through the laundry q woman was
traced and the baby was found to
be hers. She was questioned. the
baby was returned. and the case
settled by q social agency.
Grimmer Is the case Of family
found butchered with q. heavy lead
pipe wrapped In q towel. The GRIM
inal thought he had left no marks,
but Mr.. Carothers' incredible ma
chine had marked 1t. After the
towel was put, under the light. the
trail led to q young member Of the
family. The law got him.

child had finished her bread, she
took q chance and surreptitiously
slipped q whole slice Of buttered
bread next to her plate. When 1t
was eaten to the last crumb, she
tried, More bread and butter?"
The child shook her head and
seemed annoyed with grandmother
for asking.
Grandmother was beginning to
see the light. Little Marian had q
habit Of saying mo" arbitrarily.
She seemed to resent being told
what to do. This was borne out
again when grandma offered, Have

though the child looked hungrily at
the candy she said mo-" Since

more truthfully than she realized.

mother may get Marian to conform

Lots of Shellfish Available

DURING the months without an
- "R" there are many delectable
bivalves and shellfish to take the
place of oysters. Indeed, clans,
shrimp. crabs, Holsters. rock lob
ster tails. spiny lobster tails. and
scallops are best during this time.
Although clans are available
the year round. for some reason
they don't come into their own
until oysters are out of the picture.
Then we may have them served
raw on the half-shell. or steamed.
or in clam chowder as the main
dish of q meal. Other clam dishes
which are well-known to shellfish
connoiSSeurs include picnic clam
bake. bouillon, broth. fritters. pie.
souffle and deviled clans.
The popularity Of shrimp as a
cocktail dish has grown with the
years. Crab meat is also popular
as an appetizer. For the next sew
eral months there should be a good
supply of soft shell. hard shell and
fresh crab meat to tempt our pal
ates. The scallop. which puzzles
many eaters. is the adductor mus
