from the ceiling to the floor and
extend across the whole side. How
is it best to arrange these on rods
SO that they may be opened and
closed with ease? T. E. w.
AnSWer-You may use traverse
rods which have a mechanism built
into the rod to hold the curtains
and cause them to open and close
when the cord is pulled This would
make it possible to open each of the
three sets separately. Or you may
have a track installed which holds
the curtains so that they pull back
at each corner of the room. This
would mean that when they were
opened the center window would be
undraped However. if you are
planning to use sheer curtains, you
would probably keep them closed
most of the time for the Softenine
of the light, and in that case the
track would be best.
Dear Miss Novel;: Do you think
a scenic paper or small pattern
would be best in a very small nurS-
cry? 1t is only 6 by feet. K. L.
AnSwer-Suggest a tiny all-over
pattern in a light color which will
be dainty but not Spotty like a
scenic paper with large design.

The other day met an amazing

umn What would you say is the
most potent factor in the aging OF
women?" He replied, Boredom.
Most women from middle age on
don't have enough to do, enough
to interest them"
I often have mentioned this
thought in this column. However,
boredom is a rut out of which it
is sometimes difficult to climb. Most
bored women find themselves that
way because they have not pursued
individual interests during the
busy earlier years. They must
re-educate themselves to meet in
creased hours of leisure
Public opinion is now wide awake
to the Importance of hobbies in the
development of personality. With
shortened working hours for men,
they, too, have become hobby ad-
diets.
Hobby fairs. where men and
women can exhibit their collections
were unheard OF a few years ago.
The individual personality has
many facets and one job cannot give
expression to all of them. Men and
women find recreation, interest, and
youth in the enthusiasm aroused by
their stamp collections, their pho
Biography, their wood carving. their
china painting, their glass collec.
tions, and their study Of music, art

Refrain From Using
Medicine on Gums
To Alleviate Pain
By Leftice Lee Street,

In my mail today I had letter
from one of you mothers who Is
quite worried because her baby iss
eight months old and has not cut
any teeth as yet. However, she says
that her baby boy is fretfUl now;
he does not want to eat and his
lower gum is red and swollen in
front She also wanted to know if
there was anything that she could
put on her infants gums that would
ease the pain he is obviously
suffering. 49,
Some babies are quite upset while 3.
they are cutting their teeth, but it
IS gratifying to learn that statistics :
show that teething is less painful !,
for infants now than it was in days
gone by. Doctors think this is due
to the improved methods of feeding.
1t is not uncommon for a baby
not to cut his first teeth, which are :,
the lower two central ones, until
about the ninth month. Previous
TO the appearance of these two
exciting first pearls the baby will ,
try to chew everything he can reach,
including his own fat fingers and
toes! The appearance of the first
teeth varies in different families,
SO the mother who wrote me has
no cause for concern, l feel sure.
Her baby is obviously teething now,
but as I said to her, say TO you,'
please do not use any soothing
preparations on your baby'S gums
and do not give him any medicine
to quiet him or to dull the pain. ,
If his pain is very severe he will
let you know, you may be sure of
that! If this happens, or the teeth
do not come through in four or
five days, then you should see a
doctor
When your baby starts cutting his
teeth give him zwiebach or hard
cruSts of toasted bread to chew on.
He longs to bite down on something
firm. Let him have bone teething
ring or give him a silver spoon. The
cold metal will feel soothing against
his hot, swollen gums.
A young baby's teeth should not
be cleaned unless you wipe them off
very gently with a bit of cotton
mOlstened in boiled water.
Your greatest assurance that your
baby will have a healthy mouth
free from thrush is to keep his .
food utensils sterilized and to see
that everything about him is clean,
including his toys.
Here is a table that tells when
the average baby's teeth appear:
Fourth to ninth month: Two CEN
tral lower teeth usually the first
TO appear.
Seventh to y month: Four up
per central teeth.
Twelfth to 18th month: Two teeth
to either side of the lower centrals
and the four double teeth in front.
Seventeenth to oath month; The
two eye teeth, upper, and the two
stomach teeth, lower known as the
canine teeth.
TWenty-fourth to 30th month: The,
back double teeth, in all. =
There are 20 teeth in the first
set and these are showing by the {
time the baby is 2l2 years old.
Have you questions to ask con-
cerning the care of your baby?
We suggest that you send for

children, and they might just as
well have got them at pet shop
as brought them home from a
maternity hospital. They have none
of the mother love that brings
understanding and sympathy and
wisdom to deal with fumbling little
hands and stumbling little feet.
They get no pleasure out of watch
ing a little child'S mind unfold.
To them children are always a
burden and a cross, something that
hampers their freedom and inter-
feres with their plans. They are the
women who turn their children
over to hired help to rear if they
have money, and if they are poor
wish the task off on their neighbors.
Mothers in name only.
A woman should have moderation
to be a good mother Most women
lack this. They are extremists who
are too much mother, or not enough
mother. and they love their children
too well, or not enough. And which
is worse for the child, only Almighty
Wisdom knows.
A good mother should have a
backbone like a telephone post,
for, faith, she needs it. There are
not many bad mothers. Not enough
of them to do any particular harm.
1t is the weak mothers who fill the
world with woe and who are re-
sponsible for most of our failures
and criminals.
A good mother should be SYM
pathetic, but she should use her
sympathy as discreetly and SPAR
ingly as a doctor does a strong
narcotic. What most children need
is brace and not pity.
In word, to be a good mother
requires the love that passes all
understanding, it takes the wisdom
of Solomon, the patience of Job,
the courage of hero, the firmness
of the Rock of Gibraltar. and then
some. And thank God that there
are so many mothers who can
qualify on all counts.
