WOMAN’S PAGE. Clothes and Tanned Complexions BY MARY MARSHALL. ! One of the difficulties about buying new clothes at present is that you ‘doubfleu want things that are becom- ing to a tanned complexion—and the chances are that last year's tan has | faded entirely and you have not as yet acquired a new installment. t was an obvious difficulty with THIS HANDMADE SILK FROCK IS RENDERED IN A PASTEL SHADE OF MAUVE THAT ACCENTUATES THE GOLDEN RUE OF SUNBURN- ED SKIN. ithe women who bought wardrobes for Southern resorts some weeks ago, and it is at present a difficulty that con- \fronts the stay-at-home in making lans for her Spring wardrobe.

To be sure, the new styles call for a feminine fig- ure, but we never did manage to iron ourselves out quite flat and straight, 50 it isn’t that. Even so, the feminine figure, revealing curves as it does, must still reveal slender curves. About this business of putting on weight. The first thing to be done, if you have been underweight for years, is to have a doctor examine you. That advice of mine about giving the stom- ach a rest and flushing out liver and intestines by a few days of almost liquid diet often is all that is needed to start a thin woman putting on weight. For obviously it is no use overloading the stomach with food if the digestive ::kd ‘the eliminative systems will not e it. So go on a liquid diet of orange juice and milk. If you are reducing, you you get onto a reduction diet. If want to put on weight, take orange juice for breakfast, and at some other ime during the day. At other three- hour intervals take whole milk, or fair- teal or ly concentrated foods. Drink or hot chocolate, eat the meat, eat mashed potatoes “bu baked pota- that you have in mind. At least the dressmaker’s model who displays the frocks from which you want your copied ought to be made to wear tan make- up. That would help a little. In the meantime, if you want to pre- sent the right color scheme when Spring and Summer come, you must manage to get even the Winter sun to tan your skin as much as possible. It is not enough to select tones that are becoming to a tanned skin—they must accentuate it as well. Many vivid shades are becoming to tans, but the pastel tones of the sort that have been presented for the coming Spring and Summer have the faculty of deepening the apparent tone of tan. Certain shades of mauve are charming for the girl whose tanned skin shows a glint of gold. There are soft dull blues that are better for the girl whose tan is of a slightly rosy shade. For eve- ning these shades in chiffon and other transparent materials are especially at- tractive. Grays of a yellowish cast combine well with tanned skin—hence the importance of putty and grege and other shades of gray that incline to- ward yellow. From a small piece of coarse curtain serim and a skein of mercerized em- broidery twist you can make most effective little collars and cuffs to give the new lingerie touch to silk or woolen frocks and blouses. If you would like to know how to make these little ac- cessorles, just send me a stamped, self- addressed envelope and I will gladly send you the illustrated circular at once, without charge. (Copyright, 1929.) My Neighbor Says: 1f wash curtains do not hang well after being laundered slip a curtain rod through the bottom hem of each curtain and do not remove for a few days. At the end of that time the curtains will hang straight. Avoid spring house cleaning by cleaning a room thoroughly each week. Poultices may be made of any soft non-irritating substance that can be mixed into a paste with water and will retain heat. The reason that linseed, or flaxseed meal (they are the same), are enerally used for poultices is hat this meal contains oil and can be used at a high tempera- ture without blistering the skin. In using oatmeal, one should be very careful about the tempera- ture of the poultice and watch the skin for signs of undue red- ness.

CRAIG. February 12, 1864.— “Cross - eyed Davy” Pretzman, who has been brought to Washington and confined in the Old Capitol Prison on Capitol Hill, after being arrested at Hagerstown, Md., was discovered today to be the same indi- vidual who, in company with Jake Creamer, Gid Shiery, Ben Gruber and other notorious characters, left Hagers- town at the outbreak of the Civil War. It seems that they went to Harpers Ferry and there enlisted as soldlers of the Confederate Army. Several weeks later, for reasons as yet unknown to the Federal authorities, Pretzman procured his discharge and returned to his home in Hagerstown. He was arrested, but was released on taking the oath of allegiance to the United States. Mut after the battle of Antietam he was heard to denounce loudly the Fed- eral Goverment and his words and ac- tions were such that he was arrested and sent to Fort McHenry. He was again released, however, upon taking the oath of alleglance to the United States. Nothing more was heard of him until it was reported that the Confederate Army was crossing the Potomac River last Summer, when he was seen to mount & horse and ride to Willlams- port, where he met the Confererate advance guard and escorted it into Hagerstown. He tried to raise a com- pany of Marylanders to join the Con- federate Army under General Lee, but failed in this attempt and thereupon enlisted as a private. He rode through the streets of the town flourishing a pistol and vowing vengeance on all men loyal to the United States Government. The fact that he has again been picked up inside the Union lines is is regarded as proof that he is here “with no good purpose,” in the opinion of the military authorities who caused his arrest, A large and fashiohable audience attended Miss Laura Keene's first bene- fit here at the Washington theater on Eleventh street tonight. The comedy selected for the occasion was “The School for Scandal.” Fifty workmen of the_ blacksmith's department of the Navy Yard are out on strike today, demanding an increase in pay from $1.50 per day to $1.75. A committee of the men is conferring with the officers of the yard. MOTHERS AND THEIR CHILDREN. Utility Box. One mother says: I keep & box handy to receive the dis- carded odds and ends of household ne- cessities. They come in splendidly to amuse the children. Every time a spool of thread is emptied, place it in the box. Likewise, empty match boxes, pleces of twine, clothespins, colored paper, toothpicks, cardboard, small odd boxes and any other articles that the ingenious mother may see a future need ' for. When the weather prohibits out- | door play the utility box can be depend- ed upon to give hours of amusement to children. Wagons can be made out of the match boxes and spools. Chairs, tables and doll beds from boxes and eclothes- pins. Pretty chains from cclored paper, dollhouses and furniture and many other toys. - A match box, painted a bright color, and a handle attached, is attractive for a May basket. : (Copyright, 1020.) WINTERTIME BY D. C. PEATTIE. Out in the country along any major stream you may catch ‘an exciting glimpse of the belted ki her, who does not respect the fisherman’s code of honor not to fish at the approach of Spring, but keeps busily at his task whenever the brooks and rivers are not absolutely frozen. Some people go to the Zoo to see the lions fed, but a king- fisher can furnish an hour's entertain- ment quite as readily. 4 He is a big bird, the kingfisher, often over a foot len and superficially he resembles the bluejay; like the blue- Jjay, he has rapacious habits, and a cry that is, if not raucous, at least, very noisy. His upper parts and crest are paler than the bluejay’s and the under- parts are white. You would hardly know the mate if you did not see her with Mr, Kingfisher, and home duties keep her close hidden during the season when birds are conspicuous. It is impossible to represent the war cry of the kingfisher as he swooPs to the surface of the water, seldom missing his prey. It would,resemble the sound of tin pots rolling down stone steps ex- cept that through this metallic dis- sonance s some indescribable musi- cal note which brings to mind clear windy weather, brooks and the joy of hunt. It is said that each pair of king- fishers has its own fishing preserves and | will allow no other pair to poach upon | its preserves. The custom i5 to fish up stream, and then to turn back, at some unmarked boundary, circling in & wide arc and alighting at the perch with a triumphant cry. e Prune Macaroon Pudding.

Fashionable Folk by cJulia Boyd L e O st MeNaTght Bindlcits, Tne, N. Y. DOROTHY DIX’S LETTER BOX What Can Mother Do When the Children Are Grown?—Why a Wife Is Unlikely to Love a Lazy Husband. D!AR MISS DIX: This is the story of two mothers. My husband's mother is a vampire toward her children. She forcibly prevented two of her sons from marrying and they both drank themselves to death., She opened her daughter's mail, and so completely dominated her that she rushed into an unsuitable marriage in order to get away from her mother's tyranny. As soon as we were married my mother-in-law took possession of my house and ran it; criticised my every move; interferred with my servants; managed my children, and was so unkind and dictatorial to me that my health gave way under the strain of living with her. That is one mother. Here is the other: When my father died six years ago my mother refused to make herself a burden on her children. She tried various kinds of work, but she had devoted her entire life to her family and was a mother end nothing else. Finally she got a position in an orphanage, where she is blissfully happy mothering little walfs and.strays.. They need just what she has to give. Her lifelong training serves her well. Why don’t more mothers do something like this? There are many thousands of homeless, motherless children, and these women who know only how to be mothers are the very ones needed for this work. There are not only orphanages, which have a hard time getting the right kind of matrons, but children’s societies, charitable organizations of all kinds that need that mother training. I know a dozen places right now that need women of average education and ability, but superlative character. Why don’t more women find jobs where such gifts are in demand? - They would be so much mmfler. their families would certainly be happier, and a great work would gain by their services. I P. B. Answer: T commend this letter to the consideration of that vast army of women who at middle age find themselves at loose ends, not knowing what to do with their lives, Death has deprived them of their husbands. Their children are married and gone, and it seems to them that there is nothing to do but to break up their homes and go to live with their children. Yet they don't want to do this because they shrink from the idea of being dependent on their sons-in-law, and they realize that it is going to be pretty hard for a woman who has always been the head of her own house to play second fiiddle in some other woman's house, even if that other woman is her own daughter. Yet up to now it has been the conventional thing for a widowed mother to go to live with her children, with the inevitable result that the mother has almost always been a source of discord in her children’s homes, and has been miserable herself, In all good truth there is no more pitiful figure than that of the woman in the fiftles, or the sixties, who is suddenly snatched out of her own home and thrust into her children’s. She is strong and able-bodied and full of energy, but she has nothing to do except be a child’s nurse and a darner of stockings. Her daughter or daughter-in-law resents her interference with the housekeeping. She }‘xu no personality, or friends of her own. She is only Mary’s mother, and Mary's friends endure her on sufferance. Worse still, it wears on her to have to keep perpetual watch on herself in order not to advise, or to suggest, or to interfere with her in-laws. And she knows herself unwanted, and that the family would be happier and better off without her presence. Notwithstanding all of this the middle-aged widows have felt that they had to accept this fate and endure it with what fortitude they could, but this is a mistake and they need to get a new slant at the situation. They need to realize that a woman in her fifties and sixties is no longer an old woman if she has good health. She still has 10 or 15 or 20 years of work in her, and she will be a million times happier and better off if she strikes out for herself in some _gainful occupation than she will be if she goes to live with her children. In that way she will have her independence, her freedom. She can have her own little home, in which she can do as she pleases, as she cannot do in her children’s. She can have her own circle of friends. She can live her own life, instead of having to trail along in the path blazed by others. Furthermore, the chances are that she will not have to work any harder than she would in her children’s homes, and she will get a salary for what she does, as she would not if she were working for her children, 7 Nor need the woman who has only been a wife and mother and house- k¢ r feel that there is no need for her services. There will always be babies to cuddled, children to be taken care of, institutions where wise, motherly, experienced matrons ere needed, mothers who would gladly pay some other woman to give their children the care that they cannot give them themselves. KRR DOROTHY DIX. I am married to & man who is young and strong and healthy and capable of making a good living for us, but he will not keep a steady job. He can always command fine wages, but he will only work long enough at a time to get something he wants, and to give us barely enough to get by on. Now here is something curious I want to ask you about—when he is at work I love him to death. Every time I léok at him I want to put my arms around his neck and smother him with kisses, but when he doesn't work I just couldn't kiss him if I had to. He has noticed this and speaks of it. Why MRS. J. R. DIAR DOROTHY DIX: is it, Miss Dix? Answer: It is because when he is acting like a man he rouses your ad- miration and respect and love, but when he is nothing but a lazy loafer he is repulsive to you because you are filled with contempt for him., No woman who has the right principles herself can love a man she does not respect. She may have pity for a weakling that makes her condone his faults. She may feel toward him as she would toward an afflicted child, but that isn’t the sort of love that any real man wants his wife to have for him, The ideal love of a woman for a man is based primarily upon respect. She must look up to him. She must feel his streng'.g‘ She must_ feel ?hnt she can rely upon him, and that he will carry on and do his part in life. That is why when you see your husband qualifying as a real man you love him. ‘When you see him as a quitter and shirker, one who evades the responsi- ?lut}r; afi lz“l::“;‘:‘% of bra.v;l,y mers‘!w thlelm, one who cares mulmle for his am ai ot willing to exe: imself to su) t it decently, you recoil from him because he shatters your id i s After all, we can only love the lovable, is_about attractive thing on earth. snd s Jasy man is about the ATWOOD GRAPEFRUIT TREE-RIPENED WHOLESOME DELICIOUS least IX.

The Criminal. Fifty years or more ago Lombroso, the great Italian crimonologist, brought forth a long-hoped-for theory. He pro- posed that criminals could be designated by certain physical characteristics— shape of head, ears, jaw, etc. The theory was, of course, exploded in due time, at least so far as any predictable knowledge of criminals is concerned. Lombroso's theory couldn’t find a place | among the exact sciences. Twenty-five years ago the criminal was guessed at indirectly through the work of Binet, the French psychologist. Binet started out to determine mental deficiency by the ald of psychological tests, Those psychologists who were interested in ascertaining the ‘“ear- marks” of a criminal gave Binet's tests an enthusiastic reception. After play- ing with these tests a while they came out with the startling intelligence that the majority of criminals were feeble~ minded persons. According to one sum- mary, 93 per cent of the convicts so examined were found to be deficient mentally in some degree. During the late World War the feeble- minded theory suffered a setback. At Fort Leavenworth, where perpetrators of important crimes were confined, it was discovered that the prisoners ranked in intelligence with the average citizen outside. ‘The conscientious ob- jectors ranked above the average, As matters stand today there is na reliable physical or valid psychological test for criminal traits, A criminal may be feeble-minded, consequently he is unable to adjust himself to society. On the other hand, he may possess superior intellect, consequently he unwilling to adjust himself to surrouns 3 h (Copyright, 1920.)

Answer—(1) A figure lixe yours is the natural result of incorrect posture. This, in turn, may be due to a real physical weakness or, more commonly. to lazy habits. Wearing high-heeled shoes also causes defects of figure like yours. Underweight and poor muscle tone may be predisposing factors in your case. At any rate, you must learn to carry the weight of your body cor- rectly. nd tall.

Answer—(1) 8o lons as your neck is not scrawny you should not worry about its being slender. Slender necks are prettier than fat onmes, If you want yours plumper, however, you must try to gain weight all over. I do not think there is any other way to solve your problem, Massage your neck gently each night and do a few neck exercises every day to stimulate the circulation. (2) Why not make this wayward lock of hair into bangs? At bedtime stick it down to your forehead with white of egg_or bandoline to train it to le flat. The tendency of this strand ef hair to fall as it does is due to the way the individual hairs grow out at the root. There is no way I know of to change this idiosyncracy at its source. LOIS LEEDS.

Answer—You will outgrow the ten- dency to have enlarged pores in time if you are careful to cleanse your skin thoroughly each night and use an as- tringent. Use pure tile soap and warm water. Rinse and dry thor- oughly, as failure to do so causes chap- ping. Now pat on a little astringent cold cream. If this treatment seems too harsh for your skin, omit the soap and water and cleanse with cold cream. Wipe it off carefully and rub your face with ice or pat on an astringent lotion. .
