WOMAN’S PAGE. Longer Stockings Now in Fashion BY MARY MARSHALL. uch cause for anx ionable women | Winter. It to some peo- women g short length, ending below the knee. Wool over the knees is very uncom fortable to many women. The silk stocking worn over them covers the knee and holds them in place. One thing to be thankful cool weather—bare knees seem to be rather passee. That is undoubtedly due to the fact that skirts grew so much shorter. There was something vather interesting about stockings that showed the knees when skirts were only short enough afford a glimpse now and then of those bare knees. But an uninter- rupted sight of bare knees with “scotched” stockings below them cer tainly holds no special fascination. So it is that women have taken to wearin; their stockings over their knees—held in place there by garter: or by the conventional hose supporters.

Why not vary our program of carefully working out ‘“balanced diets” by giving a thought to an in dividual food as a balance wheel? Pruit, for example. Perhaps no other one has larger claim to balance wheel than fruit. ing proper relationships balance wheel, the broad belts and other intricacies of construction, the machine would not require a balance wheel for the simple reason that it would not be constructed properly to perform its task. So the body, lack ing proper proportions of building ma- terial, whether for bone or muscle or nerve, would have little use for the that keep this marvelous mechanism going.

NUMEROLOGY BY NEYSA McMEIN. An Original Lady. I have been laughed at a good deal because I believe that a person’s name influences his or her destiny. Take Ganna Walska, for instance. Here is a lady who wanted to be a_singer and instead of singing second roles, which might have been successful, be husband's conspicuous wealth she has been en leading parts, and the result was such sha tering _criticism that most singers would have given up then and there. But if you figure up her name vou find that it comes to a 5, which means nd_uncertainty, linked with it mental and physical force. And is this very force which has made Mme. Walska persist in unsuc cesstul struggle along this roc roads. when if her name something else—a for |she, with her great natur: tages of beauty and money, easily have succeeded very one knows ska's beauty and was her personality arly struck me.

The girl of today has it firmly fixed in her mind that if she wants to make a kit with the new man she must establish the fact that she's a riotously popular person. She feels that unless her companion understands fully that she’s no wall flower he'll lose interest and fade away before she's had a chance to atiract him. So she determinedly sets out to show | that she's one of the world's biggest timers—she runs through her list of social activities for the past week. She asks him whether he's seen this show or that movie; tells him she never misses anyvthing good; mentions at least a hall dozen dances she's at- tended during the past month; hints at hundreds of broken hearts strew ing her path; relates little incidents tending to illustrate that she’s used to way and frequent parties. At the end of 10 minutes Mr. Man has come to one of two conclusions: I3ither his fair companion is a despe ue . charmer—or she only thinks she is. The effect of this latter conclusion any normal boy has with in another article—he’ll always give the popularity pretender . wide ) But if the girl's words have trulli-4f he believes she's the Al succes be—still she may los For there ar afraid of the glorivusly pop They think to themselve: she's as popular as all that what have 1 to offer her?
