A SERMONETTE. BY WINIFRED STUART GIBBS. Food Specialist Starvation Parties. She was such a pretty girl and well poised. The guest at her ther's table was reflecting on the pleasure of watching a voung girl really eat a good sensible meal. “No, indeed,"” said this particu- lar girl in response to a re- mark of the guest, “I shall not starve myself. One of my class- mates in college has made her- self frightfully ill. We were all getting ready for a dance and Margaret began a week before to starve herself. Of course, she was tired and hungry, and by the time Wednesday came what do vou think she did? From Wednesday morning until Friday noon ‘that girl ate nothing but orange juice. “Yes, she lost flesh, but made herself so sick that she could not go to the party.” Sui 1y there is a moral here. Are rot our young girls twist- ing things about by way of get- ting ready for what should be a healthful dance by starving themselves into actual illness? This is a true story and its telling is dedicated to the young sirls of the country. Let us impress it upon these same girls that dancing may be, and in fact, should be, a very wholesome form of exercise. Let us also point out that it requires plenty of good food to keep the body strong enough to get the full benefit from danc- ing as well as from any other form of activity. So to starve oneself by way of preparation for a dance is to store up trouble for the future. Starva- tion alone is bad enough, but when a depleted frame is ex- pected to dance for a good share of the night troubles pile mo camouflage. KEEP YOUR A Bit From an Everyday Drama in Washington. Meditations of a Baby on a Trip to a | hild Welfare Conference. HEN my mother dressed me in | clean clothes that morning and put a double diaper on me I declare T did not know what I was in for. It was a nice, bright day, and when she tucked me in my go-cart as usual we seemed all set for a fine time. Mrs. Jones’ black cat was out taking in the View from the fence, and as we went by the Suttons’ vellow dog darted out and began making his usual futile Jeaps at her serene highness. I found it an entertaining world—altogether an auspicious occasion, as one might eay. T did not feel at all uneasy, as my mother kept on trundling me into re- moter purlieus of the city, and sud- denly we turned into a grassy yard, where there was a sea of baby car- riages parked about a wing of a vast building. y Nor did T object when she lifted me out and started through a door in the wing. I was a bit cramped by my long ride, and it was good to stretch a bit, but the noise which smote my ears as we entered and the going and coming in the long hall struck me as atrange and unneceessary, and I was @bout to lift up my voice in protest iwhen my mother whisked me Into a most diverting little room with glass walls on three sides. There she planted me in a clean white crib and began to undress me. This process, though familiar to bovedom, seemed o out of place. under these circum- stances that 1 made up my mind that a fuss was justified, and opened my mouth to zive one of my loudest bawls, when, at the opening of the door, appeared a dazzling young lady with a white apron, a blue kerchief over her head and a measurinag tape in her hand. “Oh, what a long baby!" she cried, measuring me swiftly. I had hastily repressed my emotions which seemed out of harmony with such a charming Jision, and in stage-struck silence, al- jowed my mother to carry me, in my blanket, to “the ‘to be weighed,” as the vision described it. Now—to explain my subsequent be- havior—the scales were different from anything 1 had ever seen before, and 1 did not like their looks. Nor, ‘when my mother seated me upon a clean paper napkin laid upon the cold iron, Qid 1 like the feeling in a sensitive spot. and I demonstrated as much by leaping from the scales in the direc- tion of my mothe ho barely caught me by one arm. “Did vou get_his weight?” said my mother, gasping. “Well, no, I didn’t have time.” said the other, “we must try again.” Thereupon 1 let out all the pent-up emotions of the past. My mother was aghast, but that did not deter me. Indeed T had found that the first step | ci in getting my own way was thor- oughly to intimidate her by my howls. So I went through all my different crescendos and clung to her like a burr when she tried again to place me on the scales. There followed a struggle to detach me from my mother at the same time that 1 was in contact with the scales. Finally the lady saie Well, T think that is the nearest I can get his weight, you might as well take him to the doctor’s office now.” This was the moment T had been waiting for to start something which nevey failed to subdue my mother. % “Oh, mnurse! He's holding his breath,” said my mother. Sald that brutal young lady whose severity so Dbelied her looks: “The best way is to give him a slap on his back.” I was proud of my mother when she clasped me to her breast, “Oh, miss! 1 never slap him,” she protested. “he young lady looked at me un- easily. “I really think you had better do something.

CHILD WELL ‘To tell the truth, T was glad to change my tactics as I was 8o near the end of my wind-power that the explosion was a great relief. ““So this is the young man that has been making all that row,” said the doctor. “You look a little ruffled, Miss Stanton.” 1 looked at Miss Stanton and my heart smote me. She was more than ruffled. Her immacu- late apron was torn at the neck and one button was gone, and her kerchief dangled long over one shoulder. “‘He i3 a bit of a handful,” she said. “‘He is decidedly underweight, and from what his mother tells me of the diet she has been feeding him I don’t wonder that he is difficult.” “Hum-um,” said the doctor running ““This is cer- tainly an incomplete diet you are giv- ing him.

Won't eat!” the doctor exclaimed impatiently. t's your duty as a mother to make your child eat what is good for him. Starve him if he won’t eat what you give him."” “‘Starve him, doctor! Oh, I couldn’t.” My mother was horrified. “You won’t have to starve him, madam. Let him get really hungry and he will eat what you give him. Here is the list.” The doctor meanwhile had been looking in my mouth, rapidly run- ning his hands over me and making a black tube which hung from his ears all over my person. 1 will confess that. though my spirit was by ne means broken. I was for the moment exhausted. That fateful day inaugurated a change in my life. My mother became a woman of iron, with a heart of ada- mant. If I did not eat the loathsome spinach set before me, she would spirit away the alluring cookie which was intended to be the reward of vir- tue. I finally concluded that to yield to this new ‘order of things was the easlest way. In fact, there are not really so many things that are worth scrapping about after all. At our next trip to the Child Wel- fare Society I heard my mother tell- ing Miss Stanton: “‘Sammy is certainly improving in his disposition. He does not have nearly so many tantrums as he u to.” “You will find he will improve in every way now that you are feeding him ‘correctly,” sald Miss Stanton. “You cannot expect a baby that is not fed properly to be good natured. Here is a present for Sammy because he is so good now.” With her most radiant smile, she handed me a tiny wooden horse and cart.

G.—Undoubtedly your baby is suffering with eczema and you can hardly expect a cure until you have discovered what is wrong with her food. Lotions and salves are soothing and healing externally, but there is some poison circulating in the system caused by her food which must be eliminated before any real cure can result. Since you are nursing the baby the cure must come through you. Do not eat any of the foods you men- tioned; nurse the baby only once in four hours, not a minute sooner; and give two tablespoons of boiled water before each nursing. Exercise a lot yourself, and do not eat fat meats or fat gravies, rich_pastries, much but Please send for the ma and weaning and feeding, inclosing a self-addressed and may entirely disappear. It would stamped envelope with your request. When the baby is weaned the rash may entirely disappear. It would seem that the nurse was far the best guesser of all the advisers you had. A Nervous Child. While the baby shows sucl v loud noises and do away with them in the house as much as is possible. Muffle the door bell. A sharp ring is startling to most adults, and your baby was so tin, hardly to be considered as an ordinary child, but more as a premature baby. | Please write for a leaflet on various questions, sending a self-addressed and stamped envelope for it. If the child is fed every three hours, the complementary feeding should come directly after it, and not at any other time. Constipation. M B. B. K.—The constipation! should be relieved through the diet and not by giving cathartics every day. If you will write and tell me what the baby weighs at time of writing and his birth weight and ex- actly what you are feeding him I can tell you better how to help the constipation. Please remind me to send you the leaflet by inclosing a self-addressed and stamped envelope for it. Use zinc oxide on the but- tocks, as powder is of little use for this condition. All this argues that there is something radically wrong with the formula you are using. All-Right Formula. Mrs. M. H. K.—Considering that the baby had such a poor start for three months, no doubt his weight now, of 11 pounds at 6 months, is not 8o bad as it would otherwise seem. At any rate, the formula is plenty strone enough, - contains the right elements, and as the baby is sleep- ing so well and acting satisfied, should not worry about the welght. Shortly, no doubt, she will begin to add the pounds in a greater hurry. You are welcome to a feeding and weaning leaflet for further help.with your feeding problem. Send a self- addressed and stamped envelope for it. MODE MINIATURES ‘With the approach of Easter come thoughts of the Easter costume—suit, coat, ensemble. And having once de- cided which it shall be your problem of discriminating attire is but half solved. For accessories contribute immeasurably to the perfection of the picture that you make.

For a five or six pound roast of beef from the round allow three-quarters of a cup of vinegar, two teaspoons of savory poultry seasoning, one sliced carrot and one sliced onion, one and three-quarters tablespoons of salt, two slices of lemon and three and one-third cups of water. Mix the water, seasoning, lemon, vegetables and vinegar together and boil for four or five minutes. Pour over the roast and let stand covered in a cool place for about 24 hours. Take from the pan and dust with flour and brown in a deep iron kettle; pour on the vinegar; partly cover with water and let simmer until the meat is very tender. This will take about four hours.

But matters had changed. Somebody was coming up that t Yes, sir, somebody climbing that tree. This was a wholly different matter. The stranger began to feel unedsy. He kept trying to look down between the branches to see who it was that was coming up that tree and grunting as he came. But it was some time before he could see anybody. When he did see who it was, he didn't know just what to think. It was Prickly Porky who was climbing this tree, and the stranger never had seen Prickly Porky close before. Prickly Porky came up very slowly, but the re:arer he got the more uneasy the stranger felt. He ‘could hear the thousand little spears in Prickly Porky's coat rattle as Prickly Porky climbed. It was an un- pleasant sound. Yes, sir, it was a most unpleasant sound. The stranger got to his feet and began to look for a way down. When he stood up this way Reddy Fox had a good view of him. Reddy didn't know what to think. This stranger certainly looked like a Fox. Instead of an all red coat, he wore a gray coat with some red trimmings. He didn't have a white. tip to his tail nor was it so big as Reddy's. But there was no doubt that the stranger was a member of the Fox family. Reddy knew him to be a cousin, though what cousin he didn’t know. Nor could he understand how a Fox could possibly be high up in a tree. Reddy simply sat there staring with his mouth wide open. He was too astonished for words. In his sur- prise he forgot everything else. It wasn't until the roar of Bowser’'s voice almost in his ears warned him that Bowser had discovered him, that he remembered where he was.

But he did mind being driven away without a_chance to see what would happen when Prickly Porky climbed up where that strange Fox was. He felt that he had been cheated, and that made him very provoked. But there was nothing he could do about it. He simply had to attend to the business of running. Meanwhile, the stranger up in the tree, who was Gray Fox the Woods Fox, and who had come to the Green Forest from further South, had grown more and more uneasy. “Ex- cuse m aid he politely to Prickly Porky, “will you let me pass?” Prickly Porky simply grunted. He didn’t even appear surprised to find a Fox up a tree. He kept right on climbing. Just below Gray Fox he stopped and he acted for all the world as if he didn't know that any one was near. Then, to the relief of Gray Fox, Prickly Porky crept out on one of the branches. Gray Fox didn't waste any time. He came down out of that tree in a hurry and off he started.

Here is a group of family names the origin of which you could hard- be expected to guess, unless you are one of those comparatively few per- sons in the world_today who are familiar with the Welsh language. And even then the source of these names might not be so obvious to you in view of the changed spelling. The word is “syddyn,” and it indi- cates a farmer. Like other Welsh family names, it is only in the last few hundred years that it has become hereditary, for while the Welsh from the earliest period used the descriptive or occu- pational surname, and also the sur- name indicating parentage, it was really only under English influence that any of these surnames outlived the individuals bearing them, to be assumed by their children and grand- children. In this the Welsh differed from the other representatives of the Celtic race, the Scots and the Irish, who developed real family names from clan nam Sidden, OLARINE is the only safe polish for nickel and nickel finish.

HOW IT STARTED BY JEAN NEWTON. what do you know about insects, not “*Carrying On.” Those of us who had not used it previously must have become familiar during the war with the expression “‘carrying on,” meaning to continue our efforts, to go on, in spite of diffi- cultles and discouragement, regard- lgss of obstacles and setbacks. In- deed, in the midst of the tragedy and the cruelties of war, it sometimes re- quired great hardihood and courage for people just to “carry on.” The same words are frequently used in every-day speech with an entirely differcnt significance; that is, when some one {8 admonished not to “‘carry on s0,” meaning not to make a spec- tacle of himself. Strangely, both uses of the phrase, with their widely different meanings. go for their origin to the same source, namely, the.parlance of the sea. In Reddy | deed, their common ancestor is fovnd because in the very same circumstance in the work of the sailorman. To those who control the fate of a ship “carry on” means to keep as much sail set as possible; in other wordg, to fight against a wind or a gale, in contrast to running before the wind, which is the line of least resist- ance. The general significance of such prolonged effort against adverse conditions is obvious, as is the appli- cation of the expression in this sense to every-day speech. On the other hand, it is easily com- prehensible that keeping sail set to fight a gale which cannot possibly be overcome is carrying a good principle too far and making oneself ridiculous. A similar display of wasted effort on the part of people who “make a fuss"” to no constructive purpose is another form of ‘“carrying on.” Clues to Character BY J. 0. ABERNETHY. The “S”-Shaped Profile. There are four types of profile— the vertical, the concave, the convex and the “S™ shaped. Each one has a definite meaning. A convex profile proclaims a rapid thinker. It also denotes an observant, self-centered person. A concave face denotes a slow, la- bored, plodding type of mind. This face is philosophical, calm, collected, but once it makes up its mind it is generally right. This person’s fault lies in being too conservative. He thinks too late. The plain type of profile is mod- erate. This form denotes good judg- ment of human nature. The vertical profile is apt to go far in any pur- suit, because it has the happy fac- ulty of keeping in the middle of tMe road. The “S"-shaped profile is consid- ored best for allaround use. Most men that are called handsome pos- sess this type of face. A sharp nose usually accompanies it. Such a pro- file denotes quick, decisive, correct thoughts of action..
