with pride ut Juniors explosive con.

woyds to answer him. I put up my
arms, drew his head down and
kissed him warmly.
"I'm 50 proud Of you, darling" !"

"For being homesick I" he coun-
tered mischievously.
"For being such q loyal lad" I
told him, "and you may be sure Dad
will be just ~ proud. And we'll say
nothing more about Mr.. Veritzen's
prohered matinee"
A Nice Offer
II should hope not" he said with
decision. "Of course, it was awfully
nice Of him to offer US s,,ch . treat,
but neither Of US could think Of
leaving you people for even that
long.
II don't know" he went on, "that
we'd like to 60 even if you and Dad
and Faith were along. We haven't
seen you for so long, and there's so
much talking we've got to catch up
on. But" his voice was suddenly
anxious-"do you suppose it will
hurt Dad to talk this afternoon :"
I smiled At him reassuringly.
"You know Dad" / said. "Just

clan wouldn't want him to move
around much with his wounded arm,
but l am predicting there will be
no ban on his talking as much as he
wishes. But here comes Noel"
Mary's husband came over to my
chair, and bent over me.
Has to Leave
"I'll have to be leaving as soon
rs Mary and / have breakfast, and
I'll probably be going from that
door in her room, so ! thought I'd
say au revoir now. I'll probably be
seeing you at dinner. I think my
stepmother is planning dinner for
you all with US"
A Mortified disclaimer rose to my
lips, but l caught it back. There was
no use upsetting Noel, but made
up my mind to see Olga as soon as
l could manage the interview and
find out what Noel had meant. It
seemed preposterous that she should
not guess how much we wanted to
be alone as family on this rare oc-
casion of our boys being with US.
I managed a cordial adieux, as
did Junior, and then, as Noel
crossed to the card table to say
goodbye to Lillian, Roderick and
Faith, Junior gripped my arm.
Formal Dinner
"Mums!" he gasped. "Do you
mean we've got to 60 through with
a formal dinner with the Veritzens
tonight? It's our only chance to be
by ourselves. When we get out to-
the farm, everybody will be eating
with us. Can't you dodge it some
way?"
"I'm going to do my best" told
him firmly. "Wait here for me-"
l crossed to the telephone, and
called the palatial apartment of the
Lansfeld's owner. Philip, himself,
answered the call. .
"Madgew he said. "Any news?"
"Yes," I told him, "good news. l
want to come up and tell you about
it. also want to see Olga about
something. When will it be conven-
lent for you people to see me?"
"At any minute" he responded
promptly. "I'll send Winters up for
you right away"

VICTIMS Of excessively dry skin
often find that their lips are rough
and chapped all the year round.
When applying the rosy glow the
lipstick fiutfs up little shreds and
tatters. This condition calls for spe-
cial treatment.
While cold cream Is Blessing to
the complexion, it just won't do for
the lips. The psrfumed content
doesn't taste good, and you are
bound to lap up some Of Il. Hence
the need for the white lipstick that
has healing qualities. Use II At night
after the face washing. During sleep
it will restore the surfaees u the

Required Music Practice Will
Not Do Any Harm to Child

drudgerous, since there is practi-
cally no skill achievement and there
fore no satisfaction to lessen the
resistances.
But when the child with fair or
more than average music talent
keeps practicing in accordance with
reasonable standards of accuracy.
he inevitably grows in skill and
feels he is achieving. Through
awareness of this achievement
comes memorable satisfaction and
this satisfaction may, in COMPARE
son, reduce his distaste. It's this
possible satisfaction from achieve
ment that has been overlooked not
only by many parents but by many
philosophers Of education also.
Needless Doubts
Something more has been over
looked-the needless doubts to the
child and irritations and arguments
with his requiring parents. Here
again the so-called expert has made
it hard for parents. He has not
given parents q workable program
of control and enforcement. Yet the
child must have some respect for
authority before he will do what
he is told to do. There must be avail
able an effective penalty-and it
won't be jawing-to enforce re-
quirement.
For this penalty have suggested
requiring the recalcitrant child to
sit doing nothing and without
amusement for twice as long as
good practice of the music lesson
would take, for each delinquency.
Back Of this the child must have
learned from much earlier expert
ence that it would be very painful
to leave the chair before the time
is served. Let parents Of the tot pre-
pare him now to profit from such
penalties, which may be desirable
later.
Answering Parents Questions
@. Are there some good books
about children's books and how to
evaluate them?
A. Yes; "Roads to Childhood" by
Anne Carroll Moore; "a venture in
Reading" by May Lamberton Beck
er; Every Child and Books" by
Jean Betzner and Annie Moore;
Reading to Children" and "Treas-
ures for the Taking" by Anne T.
Eaton; "Bequest Of Wings" by An
mis- Duff; Books, Children and
Men," by Paul Hazard; "Children

Food for THOUGHT

All flours should be sifted, except
rye, bran or whole wheat, just be-
fore measuring. II -four is measured
directly from the container without
sitting, it will be firmly packed, and
this means that there will be Is to
80 per cent more flour added to the
mixture than the recipe called for.
This will make your batter too thick
and result in dry, "bready" article.

to creamed celery. You can bake in

An Eye III
To Treat
Promptly
By HERMAN n. BUNDEsEN. MD.

OUR eyes mean SO much to US
and many Of US do not fully appre-
ciate that fact until we have some
trouble with our sight. That is why
our eyes should not be neglected.
Glaucoma is one of the eye troubles
for which we should be on the look
out. It is . disorder Of the eye in
which the pressure Of the fluid with
in the eyeball Is increased. Unfortu-
nately, the exact cause Of this dis
order is not as yet known. However,
if treated properly and early, much
can be done for this condition.
Some cases Of glaucoma are very
serious, while many remain mild in
nature. The recognition Of this lat
ter fact is Of great benefit to the
patients mental attitude. In some
instances, the eyesight remains un-
changed over an indefinite period.
Drs. Posner and Schlossman have
reported on over $40 cases Of glau-
coma. The pressure within the eye
ball remained only slightly in
creased in 40.
Examination of Eyeball
They suggest that examination
Of the eyeball tension be made in all
persons over 40 years Of age, and
think this is good thing for all
Of us to keep in mind.
If the tension is ut all increased,
further investigation Of the condi-
ton Of the eyes should be carried
out at once. Any difference in ten
sion between the eyes is a sign Of
importance which the doctor knows
demands investigation.
Another important sign is varia-
tion Of pressure within the eyeball,
even though the pressure does not
seem to be abnormally high. And
it is an important thing for all per-
sons to know that there seems to be
= great deal Of evidence that glau-
coma tends to run in families.
The symptoms Of this condition
vary to great extent. There may
be occasional blurring of the eye
sight, some discomfort within the
eye, excessive tearing, the seeing of
. halo around lights, and difficulty
in reading. Congestion of the eye
ball is usually present. Sometimes
the only sign Of the disease is varia-
tion in the eyeball pressure.
In Severe Cases
Surgical treatment Of glaucoma
is used but not when the condition
is so slight that the eyesight is not
impaired. In seyere cases, however,
operation may be necessary to save
the eyesight. i"
The doctor will determine the de-
gree Of severity Of the disorder be-
fore treating the condition with
drugs, since such treatment may be
unnecessary as long as the symp-
toms are slight and there is no loss
of eyesight.
If drugs are used, one called pilo-
carpine is recommended to be given
twice daily. OF course, such treat
ment must be carried out under the
direction Of the physician.
There should be no delay in the
treatment Of glauconra.
Remember, delays are always
dangerous.
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
A. A. w.: Every day hard crusts
form in my nose. What could do
to correct this condition?
Answer: The hard crusts in the
nose may be due to atrophic rhini-
tbs.
1t would be a good plan to consult
a physician to determine the exact
cause Of your trouble so that it can
be properly treated.
