Tactful mothers know that pre-.
cepts about cleanliness may regis.
ter best through appeal to pride.
As children grow up they take In.
tense interest In 1.-THE right thing
to do" because they are anxious
that everyone shall think well OF
them and Of how they look and
act.
For example. boys and girls
want to know when to shake
hands. In telling them, Mother
has opportunity to emphasize how
good manners require that hands
extended In greeting shall be thor.
oughly clean. People like to shake
hands with boys and girls whose
hands ore thoroughly acquainted
with soap and water: and on the
contrary. nice people shrink from,
and dislike. hands that are grimy
and dirty.
Perhaps daughter asks your ID.
vice about the bonnet or dress TO
wear on q date. It Is easy ct such
q time to point out the attractive
ness Of hair that u shining and
clean, and the good sense OF .
thorough all-over bath before put.

Children alert to what others
think Of them. are quick TO get the
cleanliness Idea, and through APP
peal to pride and manners, TO
learn good habits that win beneflt

neeses. You'll feel better because Of
It. Wash the hands with soapguds
half . dozen times during the day.
Remember lot Of the things you
touch are contaminated With the
germs and you convey them to your
mouth when you handle food.
Diet L Important
Watch your diet more carefully.
There u Q tendency Of most Of Us
to eat richer. heavier foods In the
winter than our activities justify.
More emphasis on alkaline-form.
Ing foods Is an important step In
combating colds and preventing
them. Orange and tomato juice.
apples. bananas, carrots, spinach
and cabbage are good sources OF
WtaminS A and G as well - min-
erals SO valuable In building up the
resistance. Vitamin B found In milk
and In whole grain cereals. breads.
nuts and some Of the vegetables Is
also helpful. Avoid m excess Of
sweets and make II . point TO drink
three or four glasses Of extra water
In the course Of Q day.
Never. never lie In bed with your
hair d . m p-and don't putter
around your room after . hot bath.
Many busy girls who must do their
beautifying ut night. make this
mistake to their sorrow and dis
comfort. II you must have q sham.
poo at night, use an electric heater
or fan and dry your hair thor.
oughly before going to bed. Re.
dampen 1t and set In curls In the
morning: better not use curriers' at

person. They will prevent beauty
ills as well as health hazards.
