WOmen'S Inferior Position Develops Superior Traits

son or a man of responsibility, but a woman has her main job in life thrust on her when she becomes 9 Mama" and that is usually when she is just girl herself. To handle that job she has to learn fast.
 EASILY EXPLAINED M
 Why they live longer is easy. No wife wants a successor in her hus- bands affections and her only way of making sure sch won't have one is to outlive him.
 And the sex that is condemned for life to cooking three meals Q day and doing the dishes after- wards just has to endure routine good-naturedly.
 As for taking orders well, men have conditioned women to that by building up the bugaboo that there is something mighty funny about woman's taking herself seriously enough to get to the place where she can give orders herself
 Which just adds up to the fact that our superior traits are prob ably largely the result of our irl- ferior position.

h e y dropped paint on his face and bed. He could not sleep except with the aid of an opiate.
 The family was frightened and very much upset over a condition which seemed to borebode serious trouble. It was not possible for the doctor to see the patient every day. Necessity demanded that I do some thing to relieve the situation.
 When the patient was sleeping heavily after having his usual hypodermic, the men of the family were instructed to turn the bed around and place it in another pos- ition in the room. Other furniture was also moved, and the curtains at the windows were changed.
 HUMOR HIM
 When the patient awoke he was told that he had been moved to an- other room where the painting had been completed, and the painters instructed to stay out of the room. He accepted the statement with ob- vious relief. That night he slept nat urally for the first time. His con- fusion soon cleared and he talked no more about the painters.
 It is not unusual for an old person who is ill to become mentally con- fused, but the condition is not nec- essarily serious. It should be watch ed carefully to see that he does not get out of bed or harm himself. If his attention cannot be distracted by some simple means such as de- sc-ibed, he should be humored in his delusions and not arguel with ncr opposed. An attitude of sym- pathy and understanding will us- ually keep such Q patient quiet un. til the doctor can see him and give instructions for treatment.

 Consider eight AsWel As Color When Choos- ing Your Face Powder
BY ALICIA HART
 NEA Staff Writer

If your face powder is to stay with you and spread 8 more beguiling well over your skin, you should know something about weights when you buy.
 A lightweight, for instance, is the best choice in 8 face powder for skin that is dry. Even if that skin is rough, light powder will smooth it down by filling in delivities and lying lightly no peaks. But for an oily skin you need a heavier powder which has more abSorbency, and as rule, the less of this you use, the smoother the finish and the more lasting its effect will be.
