Triangle: Your frames must be
slightly rounded along the top

your temples. Frames should be
delicate so as not to over-balance

Diamond: To avoid minimizing

forehead, make absolutely certain
that your frames are as wide as
your cheek bones and curving and
delicate!
Square and Rectangular: You
have two choices! Either curving
frames or a combination of
straight lines along the top rim
and curved lines along the lower
The first will make your face
appear shorter, the last, longer,
Both will soften any angular lines
in your face.

The woman who would rather
not see what is, going on around
her than wear glasses in public
is complete enigma to me! Why
does any woman feel that her
glasses are such handicap to her
looks that she keeps them hidden
in her purse?
II it's because she has never
found a pair that is becoming to
her, I'll tell her how to do that
right now. It's possible for any
woman to select a frame that will
actually f1atter her face.
You'll feel that you are actually
looking at life through rose
colored glasses" if you choose a
pair that gives all the lines in
your face q lift. This gives you
an advantage over the woman who
does not need glasses!
You can counteract laugh lines
and wrinkles by choosing frames
with lines slanting upward. You
can even modulate the shape of
your face by the shape of a frame,
just by keeping in mind this one
important law of design: Lines
that travel in the same direction
reinforce and lengthen each other.
Therefore, If you do not wish to
repeat or emphasize a line in your
face, select frames with lines that
travel at an angle to the lines of
your face. For example, round
glasses on a round face will make
the face appear even rounder. But
irregular shaped harlequins will
lengthen and ovalize it.
There's just such a compliment

AFRICAN VIOLETS.

(Fronl Mrs. A. c. d.. WashingtonJ
To Mrs. H. P. G., Washington:
Put some camphor flakes (can
be bought at drug store) in a
saucer and place your flower pot
on the flakes. The fumes will
go up among the leaves and de-
stroy the bugs. I have used this
method successfully.
(From Mrs. C. w. H., ArlingtonJ
For Mrs. H. P. G.: Some one
wrote into RICH some time ago
the following: "A nurseryman
told me those little white bugs
found at the bottom of the pot
could be eliminated by putting
nicotine sulfate in the saucer fol-
lowing instructions for mixing
given with the poison. They will
not harm the plant, however"
Also read that touching each
bug on plant with cotton dipped
in alcohol kills mites.
(From Mrs. H. G., Arlington)
From my experience. I believe
that you have been keeping the
African violets too wet, thereby
making the soil acid. I worked a
very small amount of lime into the
soil at the edge of the pot. being
careful not to get any on the
crown. Next I pushed several un-
lit wood matches in, the ones
about 21z inches long. not the
ones in the folders. The sulphur
in matches did the trick for me,
the bugs disappeared and plants
are healthy and blooming.
from Miss A. H., WashingtonJ
To Mrs. H. P. G.: Just a sug-
gestion to your query about way
to rid your African yiolets Of
bugs. Some time ago I had a
similar experience with my vio-
lets. Having read one time that
a tablespoon of dry mustard to
3 gallons of water would kill bugs
on plants or rather in plants, I
tried it on my violets. While I
didn't make up q 3-gallon solu-
tion, guessed at the proportion,
but made it pretty strong, put
ting it in the saucer of the flower
pot. It killed them in a hurry.
OF course. I discovered them be-
fore they had a chance to do any
damage. I called the florist where
the plant was purchased and they
wanted it themselves in order to
study it. so replaced the plant.
Therefore, I can't tell you whether
or not they continued to return.
Perhaps this is worth a try: at
least it can't do any harm. I'm
quite sure.
I love African violets myself;
they were my hobby for several
years. I was never bothered again
by the bugs.

FOAM MATTRESS.

In reply to several inquiries re-
garding the merits of the foam
mattresses, I can speak highly
enough of them. am gradually
getting them for all Of our beds.
They are not too soft, that is,
if you get the three-inch mat
tress. The three Inch mattress is
seldom advertised, for some
reason. perhaps because it runs
"a little less expensive. I person
ally feel that the four Inch in too
soft, at least for my tastes. I
have back trouble and find the
three-inch is firm enough to use
without bedboards and yet not
too hard. Another feature is that
it saves my back because it does
not require turning, but if you
choose to turn it, it is a very
simple operation and not back
breaking.
Some people have complained
of an odor connected with the
foam mattresses. I never noticed
any odor with any of the ones
that I have purchased, but I did
notice it with the one pillow I
bought. However, the odor soon
disappeared and I am completely
satisfied and hope to get more

Annoying
l-upses
By Angelo Potri

Many a good child annoys his
parents to the point of explosion.
They don't seem to take teaching
to heart at all. For years their
mothers have reminded them to
put their clothes where they be-
long. For years they have been
reminded to leave their bedrooms
ready for the routine attention by1
opening their beds, hanging up
their pajamas. towels and wash
rags without apparent effect. They
still leave their rooms in a mess;
they still forget to turn out lights;
they still have to be sent back to
make their lapses good. Why don't
they learn?
They are learning. Growth goes
on under the surface for long
time before it appears in the con-
duct of the children. They know
what good manners are long be-
fore they can be counted on to
practice them. They know other
things in the same way. In time,
after the years of childhood's
learning, they show that they
learned what was taught them.
Meantime we abide in patience
and with hope.
We should not expect maturity
before it is due. That way trouble
lies. Anxious parents sometimes
force maturity of habit upon
children before they can accept it.
Toilet training is sometimes in
sisted upon too early. Weaning
child from his mothers close care
Is attempted too early in some
mother-child associations. All
children do not respond at the
same time or in the same way as
the established standards might
indicate. These are generaliZations
and in child rearing we cannot
count altogether on the reliability
of generalities.
Comparing child's accom-
pliShments with those of another
is not profitable to anybody con-
cerned. Certainly 1t does not help
the child who is not coming up
to parental expectations, and the
other one needs no help. Nor does
it help the parents any. What
the other child does is his own
affair. He cannot do something
this other boy can do we'll. In
the end the balance is about even.
