WOMAN'S PAGE. Practical Warm-Weather Styles BY MARY MARSHALL. Just suppose that Paris enjoyed the even temperature of Bermuda or Ta- hitl. How dull women's fashions would be. Changes of season do much E CREPE DE , WITH BEIGE VEST AND to make women’s clothes interesting, and undoubtedly these seasonal changes have much to do with fashion changes from year to vear. In ages past, when the fashion center has fai n somo city or other where there is but little seasonal change, Egypt ruled the civilized worl ions must have changed ve less than they do with us who take our fashion cue from Paris. With the coming of warm weather | certain changes are hound to come that cannot properly be ascribed to changing fashion. The higher collar to which we have gradually become accustomed must take a back seat, at least temporarily. 1f fashion permits both small hats and those with wide brims, then we shall naturally incline to a wide-brimmed hat, providing it is of light weight. The long sleeve looks smart, but when dog-days come we EAT AND BE HEALTHY Daily Talks on Diet The Right Food Is the Best Medicine Dinah Day Vitamines. A few weeks ago the papers her- rlded the mews that under the direc- ion of S. G. Millimot of Cambridge University, London, Vitamine D had been discovered. This is the fourth of these wonderful little essentials which science has captured. “The peel of oranges, lemons and kindred fruits is rich in this new vita- mine, which is said to be a controlling factor in rickets.” reads the dispatch. Vitamines were so called from “amin,” a chemical compound, and “vita™ life. The knowledge that we have about vitamines was gained in recent years: The condition of the Japanese army fed on polished rice became very grave as beriberi was prevalent. Scientists began to experiment with the food to find the trouble. The dis- ease was traced to the absence of certain elements in-the polished rice. They discovered that by feeding the men on an extract from the outer coating of rice, which heretofore had heen discarded in the polishing proc- ess, their health became normal. Further experiment, showed that these minerals were present in the outer coatings of other grains—wheat, corn, rye. The investigators also found that certain vital elements were needed in food, but they could not see these ele- ments. They knew by experiment that they were present in certain foods and were missing in others. They knew they were essential to health. Experiments on animals proved that without these elements, even if the food were all protein (or body build- ing), the ahimals died. It was proved that without these elements even a diet_combined of body-building foods, fats and carbohvdrates did not nour- ish the body so well. Two American scientists, Funk and | McCollum, were the. first to give these discoverles to the world. They suc- ceeded in isolating these substances. They were called vitdmines, and later specified as “‘Fat Soluble A.” found in milk, butter, cheese, the yolks of eggs. germs of whole grains: “Water Soluble. R.” in skim milk, in whole grains, in the leaves and stalks of green vege- tables, in fruit juices:.Water Soluble €" 0 far has been located chiefly in frult juices and certain vegetables. And now “Vitamine D" has been cor- ralled. But though the precious mineral salts and the vitamines are absolutely necessary to health, the ordinary per- Son_doesn’t have to know them b: Beautifying the Home and Wardrobe Send for this booklet, justofithe press, illustrated in color, ling ‘many new uses for home dyeing.

PUTNAM FADELESS DYES [ S shall not admire it quite: so much. Thus the sleeveless and short-sleeved frock will have a chance for survival. And the impulse will be strong to favor all sorts of light-welght mate- rials—georgette, crepe, chiffon, mull, organdy and batiste. Every woman has her own idea about the most practical sort of warm- weather everyday costume. Sports clothes make strong appeal to some, and a jumper frock of thin silk jersey seems eminently desirable, especially when it is found in some one of the cool pastel shades and worn with a simple little bhat to match. Some women like nothing better than geor- gette. The dark colored little frock of georgette with ecru lingerie collars and cuffs is their chance.: Wash silk appeals to others, and this season we shall see a good deal of pongee and shantung in natural colors, which ie, by the way, the most usual choice of European and American women in tropical climes.

Every home ought to have a good sized flag which should be flung in the breeze on all patriotic dates. Certainly no home where there are young folks should be without one, lest these youngsters come to think of patriotism as just one of their studies at school. Our three children remind us the night before a_holiday that the flag must be out the next day, and they help unwrap it and get it ready for the occasion. (Copyright. 1926.) Your Baby and Mine we motored BY MYRTLE MEYER ELDRED. Late Teething. Mrs, V. C. writes: "My baby is one | vear old and shows no signs of teeth- | ing. Physicians find no cause for this. Has any such case ever been brought to your attention?” Answer. There is always a cause for late teething, and this cause is to | be found without fail in improper nutrition both during the prenatal period of the child-and the first year's feeding. Chlldren afflicted with rickets frequently show delaved dentition. The cure lies in correcting the diet and giving cod liver oil in addition. Mrs. P. 8. writes: “My first baby is two months old. 1 have been feeding | Bulgarian buttermilk every three hours and wake him Po do so. Shall T continue this? How many hours a day should he sleep?" Answer. If you continue to wake him_every three hours regularly it won't be long before he will be wak- ing as reglarly as a clock all by him- self. The baby should sleep about 18 hours a day.

Recently I read the question Whether a child is supposed to be one- half its full height at 2 years, and per- haps you will be interested in seeing the report of my children, as they are now old enough to make such a rec- ord valuable. My daughter was 2 feet 9 inches tall when 2 years old, and now at 24 is 5 feet 5 inches. My eldest son Is 20 years old, was just 3 feet tall when 2 years old and is now 5 feet 103 inches. Our baby boy was | 2 feet 11 Inches tall at 2 vears and is | now 6 feet 1 inch in height." | Answer. By all three of your records | t Is quite evident that there is nothing to the theory that children are half | their height at 2 vears of age.

CHAPTER XXVIL Aftermath. Of course, it was. impossible for Con and Jean to remain angry. for long. Each was too much in love with the other*to remain spiritually divided, and when on the next even- ing Con came home early to find his mother out and Jean alone, there was the inevitable reconciliation. Con was ready to be humble. “I was a brute to have spoken to vou as I did. I don't know what got into me, but for the moment I saw red.” Jean was ready to be generous. but she could not resist going back to what had happened before the cne in the hall. “I don't think I minded your atti- did vour unfairness in asking me to apologize for something 1 hadn't done. And then vour going fo the movies without saving a word to me. that was so unkind.” “ft was because of mothei’'s out- hurst. I've never known her to he sterical before and I wanted to humor her. I knew I could explain when we were alone and 1 wanted a little time to pass so that the dif- ference between you two would be forgotten.

She did not put her thoughts into words, because she ‘was generous and bhecause she loved Eim so much. but she also wondered if. having distrusted her once, the same thing might not happen again. As a matter of fact, although Con- rad was not consciously aware of it, Merton Thorne had on two separate occasions been connected with Jean in his thoughts. Not only that, but his mother had magnified the inci- dent of the motor ride under the guise of warning him, and although at the time he had made light of it. laughing at the idea of there being any harm in Jean's taking a drive with an old friend, he had not for- gotten the incident. He had remem- bered it last night, and swift si picion had leaped up in him. To be sure, he been ashamed of him- self later. In the light of clearer reasoning, the idea that Jean might ever be interested in any one else ‘wos ridiculous. But for all that he had been jealous and suspicious at the time. and if anything happened in the future—anything that could not be easily explained—he might very easily be jealous and suspicious again, particularly if his mother fed his suspicions. He was eager for Jean and his mother to get along amicably, and because Mrs. Morgan was careful not 10 make any definite complaints, bnt suggested things by innuendo, he had come to the conclusion that Jean was not so thoughtful as she might| be. It was this that prompted him to ask her while she was still in his arms how things had gone that dav. “About as usual” Jean returned evasively. She did not say that Mrs. | Morgan had spoken to her only when it was absolutely necessary. al- | though she had gone out of her way i 1o be pleasant, but her answer did | not satisfy Con. “Everything is all right between vou two, isn’t it?" he persisted. “Of course,” Jean said quickly. She knew that what he really wanted was to have her sink her pride and apologize to his mother, but that he hesitated about referring to it again. Not even for Con would shé do that. She couldn’t: it was too unfair. (Copyright. 1926.) (Continued in tomorrow's Star.) ~ has LITTLE BENNY BY LEE PAPE.

BEAUTY CHATS Mouth Wrinkles. There are various systems of mas- | , 8age, hut the only really necessary thing to remember is that every massage motion fust lift up the sag- ging muscles causing the wrinkles. So if you are in danger of mouth wrinkles massage across them, and with every stroke of the fingers raise the skin, that is, push it gently up- ward. It is better to take the hands away from the face at the end of each stroke, for vou might uncon- sciously press downwards. The easiest way is to use the tips of the four fingers of each hand, to work the cream you massage with well into the skin. Or use vour two thumbs as a pivot, placing them under the chin. and then use the flat part of the four fingers, or rather the eight fingers, siace you are using both hands to work’ over the skin. This is a highly recommended way, because the fingers are in such a po- sition that they must press upwards on the skin in exactly the right way; at least, s0 say those whose profes- sion is massage. Another method is to draw the lips tightly together and to blow, as though you were blowing out a can- dle. With the mouth held so. tap the skin all over with the tips of the fingers, having first, of course, ap- plied a thick layer of massage cream. And still another method is to wash BY EDNA KENT FORBES. | the skin thoroughly with warm water and soap and after drying it to put over it strips of court plaster long enough and wide enough to cover the wrinkle completely. If you can da this the last thing before hedtims and keep this plaster on all nigh you will find it a very effective trea:- ment. In connection with it you should massage the skin with a gaod cold cream some time during the day. Kvery massage should be fol- lowed by a five to ten minute fce rub.
