 The idea that life really begins at forty has been making a lot ot headway in recent years, but still there's need to emphasize that wo- men needn't "settle" when they reach middle age.
 Nowadays woman is as young as she feels and looks. She can feel young almost indefinitely And, If she really cares how she looks, she can look young far beyond the years when wrinkles, crows feet, and sag" RinR chins overtake careless people.
 Lines are no unmitigated afflic- ton: they do not all shout age. The face without line, even though " be a twenty-year-old face, is hardly worth second look, because It does tell something boring about the per- son.
 TELL TAEES
 It says It's owner has had precious little experience of living and hence possesses strictly limited human sympathies. If this fact were more widely appreciated, there'd be less anxiety among mature women about the competition of only youthful faces.
 However, certain deep lines do re. veal age and also the fact that Q woman is "old" before her time. If she has deep tracks from nose to mouth, she may have a tired dispo- sition. And she needn'tl If She cultivates 6 happy outlook, she's unlikely to have these creases be- fore she's well past middle age.
 Here's on exercise that helps pre- vent them: Puff your cheeks out full, with your lips shut, then blow them and suck them back, with lips still shut. Massage year face before starting, using e good com tour cream. Make brisk, gentle little strokes from the corners oi the mouth up end across your cheek bones to your temple. And smile

rOR ANHEDONTA

ANTYDoTE FOR ANHEDONTA
 Webster says a11hedonia is insen- sitiveness to pleasure or incapacity f1r happiness, and lets 1t 60 ct that.
 The mother of the tired college girl, whose report we included in the article "WheHl They Go Stale in Their Thirtieg," described anhedonia more graphically than Webster does. The girl, said her mother was so tired that she couldn't en- joy life as other young people do." Then after Q few months on the Iodin Ration (for instructions send stamped envelope bearing your ad- dress) s)--''now she's bubbling over most of the tilne." That is 6 good description of the normal state of growing children = bubbling over most of the time. That is the way growing children are, if their fiutri- ton and health is good.
 Even in youth and adult life ca- pacity for happiness depends largely on the state of health.
 For instance . grandmother writes:
 My new grandson is being brought up according to Brady"
 (Tnqulry about feeding the baby wheat gern-this is described in the Brady Baby Book, mailed on
 request if you inclose ten cents and stamped envelope bearing your address).
 Baby's grandmaw has been the
 vitamin B complex and D tablets
 daily for three years, and although she was an old lady at forty she
 is full of vite at fifty, has lost ali
 desire for sweets and she can roll
 'eml This is no testimonial but
 the simple truth. The best of
 everything to you.
 At forty she was 50 old she was afraid she might break her neck trying to roll sotilersaults. Maybe she got her idea of son1ersaults from Webster. Webster is obstln- ate about 1t, insisting that you must turn heels over head without touch- ing the ground with any portion ot the body. I would not advise you to try that if you haven't done any airsprlngs lately. Nor will I be re- sponsible for what may happen tc any poor geek who tries e Web- sterian somersault in the belief that I recommended it. My kind you never lose contact with the ! ground or floor, but you turn end over or heels over head, all right and come up smiling. That k, after you get the hang of it and turn half 8 dozen or 50 as routine niorn- ing and evening practice. If you would like further details send stamped envelope bearing your ad. dress, for Invitation to the somer. sauitauqua.
 Did the improvement in nutri. ton make this grandmaw keen about trying somersaults, or did soFnersaults improve her circula. ton and indirectly improve diges. ton and other functionS-have 4 aS you like.
 Something has served aS on on. tidote for allhedonia in her case It was Iodine in the case of the tired college girl. It is good coffee in the cases of c lot of misguided folk who have been persuaded that coffee is bad for the stomach, liver, nerves or heart, when, as likely as not, il iS precisely what they need to enable them to get . little joy out of life By good coffee mean well made coffee, and that means no boiling.

men nave ever kfoWn.
 But they ARE objecting-and 1t Is just Q matter of vanity. Once women didn't know enough to ob. feet to short, short skirts and Grandmas and happers alike ran around in dresses up above their often far.from- perfect knees.
 But women have been fashion. educated since the time, after the first World War, when the shorter 6 skirt was the more stylish" they felt.
 BETTER SHORT SKIRTS
 THAN MEMS SHORTS
 They have learned that too short skirts make them look awkward and most legs look better with the knees modestly covered by skirts. They have also found that nothing is as glamorous for evening as skirts that touch the floor. So they don't want to go back to above -the-knees skirt lengths -even in the name of National Defense.
 But if it comes to question of women wearing shorter skirts or men going in for street shorts = as was for Q while urged in Italy

THE WOMEN ''No Super Short SkirtS," Say WOmen--Not Even For Sake Of National Defense

women will certain ly make the sacrifice themselves.
 They know from their observa- ton at public beaches that no matter how much better the aver- age woman looks for having her knees covered = she doesn't look half as funny with them bare as does the average man.
 So if 1t comes down to e ques- ton of short skirts for the women or shorts for the men--well take the short skirts and let the men suffer what disillusionment there is to be suffered. For after all, they are supposed to be the sturdy sex.
