Superfluous Hair, ‘Today I have chosen a problem that comes up many times in letters from readers of different ages. It is the problem of superfiuous facial hair. The correspondent I have in mind now is a young woman in her 30s, a blonde with dry skin who complains of dark, long hairs around her mouth. She has tried cutting them off with scissors, but this, of course, leaves stiff bristles. Cutting or shaving the hairs makes them grow 'NEVER CUT OFF FACIAL HAIRS, more rapldly and become coarse. Pluck- ing the hair has a similar effect. I have seen eyebrow hairs that had been tweezed out often grow in as tough as quills. Coarse hair naturally stands out straight from the skin like bristles, while soft, fine hair will lie down. Chemical depiliatories are sometimes BEAUTY CHATS Where You Don’t See. No reputable beauty specialist today would give a face treatment without also massaging the neck both front and back. Therefore, no woman who wants to keep hersclf looking really well should ever give her face a thorough cleansing without also rubbing the cold cream into the neck. The back of the neck is particularly important during the Winter and early Spring months because it is rubbed by dark dresses and dark coats, and the skin is apt to turn a bad color. Whatever sort of treatment you have, begin by a thorough rubbing with cleansing cream. The following form- ula is the one I always use: White wax, 1 ounce; spermaceti, 1 ounce; white mineral ofl, 5 ounces; rose water, 115 ounces; borax, 30 grains; oil of bitter almonds, 15 drops. This, as you know, is made by melting the waxes in the oil, then adding the rose water and borax ewarm, stirring the whole untll it egins to congeal. If you want a some- what lighter cream use two ounces of Yose water. ‘The back of the neck should be rub- bed with cold cream every night, last thing at night. The cream should be taken off with a soft bit of tissue, such as the soft tissue napkins that come for the purpose, or with a bit of absorb- ent cotton dipped in hot water, or even with some old muslin which can then be thrown away. There will not be enough ol left in the skin to harm the bed cldhes. But if you use this cleansing treatment during the day you might stain the collars of your dresses. Care of the back of the neck should extend even beyond a thorough cleans- ing and wask Astringents should be used on the back of the neck as well as on the face to prevent wrinkling.

The chemical that is strong enough to eat off the hairs tends to irritate the skin, especially if it is dry and sensitive. The hairs, of course, grow in again, so that the process must be repeated at regular intervals. The wax depilatories amount to nothing more than a wholesale pulling out of the hairs. This is a painful process and may lead to irritation; all irritations of the skin are to be avoided as much as possible on account of in- fection. When the hardened wax is pulled off some of the hairs are found broken off at the surface of the skin while others seem to be taken out entire, The tiny bulb seen at the end of the hair is called its root, but its removal does not mean the death of the hair follicle. Another hair will be produced from the same spot. One disadvantage common to both depilatories and shaving is that the process must be repeated at intervals. For the permanent removal of hairs the electric needle is used. The needle is inserted carefully into each tiny hair follicle, where it destroys the growth permanently. Unfortunately, the elec- tricity tends to stimulate the growths from adjacent hair follicles that have not been burned out with the needle. As a result, the growth of hairs may increase after the electric treatment, but when all the follicles have been treated there will be no more hairs. The follicle is the little hollow in the skin into which the hair root fits and from which it grows, (Copyright, 1929.) BY EDNA KENT FORBES the back of the neck should be covered with a collar.

P. writes: “Which do you think is the proper way to put baby to bed? Just to put him in bed and let him fuss, or if he does not sleep, to pick him up again, or stand by his crib, or sing him to sleep? My baby is 15 months. old and does not sleep well at night and makes a terrible fuss going to bed. He sleeps fine in the daytime.” Answer.—The first way is right, pro- viding you know that the baby is com- fortably well fed, not overfed, the room is cool, the cover light and warm. Then go out and shut the door and let baby fuss until he goes to sieep. One of the hardest problems young parents have to face is knowing what to do when a baby cries. They feel that they must do something and usuall; that something takes the form of ente tainment, S no matter what the origin of the crying, baby begins to de- mand the entertainment, and fails to learn the most imaportant lesson, that going to kad is a five or six times a qay duty in early infancy and at least a three-times-a-day duty up to 5 years, and that it should be accompanied by quiet and solitude. Putting baby down from his first day in his own little bas- ket and putting him in a dark, quiet room, constitute the only method by which these habits can become solidified. Suppose he does fuss for a few nights? Suppose he just howls at first? If the parents are certain he is comfortable (end a good, healthy yell doesn't be- token discomfort), then let him fuss or howl for a time, while the timid parents g0 out of the room and stand by the door holding hands tightly for moral SUppOrt. babies don't need entertainment. absolutely do not need rocking (though lots of mothers get so much pleasure out of singing and Tocking a baby to sleep that they are quite willing to swear that they do) and sleep should be accom- i panied by absolute quiet and a chance ! 10_go.to.slegp, - No one wants to harm the baby.

The petition was referred to the com- mittee on the District of Columbia, where it is hoped by those who have sponsored it that it will receive favor- able attention. | A joint resolution was presented in the Senate this morning to authorize this city to the Columbia Hospital for Women. The resolution authorizes the Secretary of War to convey the build- ings of the Lincoln Hospital, which were used during the war to house vounded soldiers, as a gift to this wom- en’s hospital.

OUR CHILDREN | BY ANGELO PATRL Time and—, Helen is shy; Tommie is a bully; Susan Jane is a cry baby; Buster is jealous; Fanny twitches her face. A long list of children’s difficulties con- fronts us. We speak to each mother in turn, and again and again we hear: “I've taken him to the doctor. He says he will be all right when he gets to_be a certain age.” Well, maybe so. But again, maybe not. Time alone will not cure faults. Good example, right instruction, good environment will, in time, correct al- most any fault of childhood. But un- aided time, no. We have roughly marked off phases of childhood's growth so that 7 years becomes a landmark of infancy and 14 or thereabouts of adolescence and 21 or so of maturity. These are merely rough marks set for the guidance of grown folk generally. They are never 1o be taken as accurate, never-changing time schedules of growth. We cannot set a mark across a child's growth, and say, “Today this child ceases to be an infant and becomes a child; today he ceases to become a child and is an adolescent.” Growth is continuous and the characteristics of one period merge into the next and no growth is ever complete, ever pure. A child grows in many directions, tak- ing on many powers and many quali- ties in a broad swath of progress. These powers and qualities are of uneven growth, so the child is ever something of a baby, ever something of an adult. It is misleading, then, to say that when a child grows to a certain age he will be thus and so. What he will be is to be determined largely by what he does to himself and what is done to him during the years of his growth. So when a child has a_bad fault, set to work correcting it. Don’t leave a defect to time. Meet time more than half-way, for time sets habits unless they are constantly shifted. If the child has temper tantrums try to study out why he has them., Keep a record of your study. What time of day did it happen? Who was there? What was said and who said it? What kind of tantrum did he have? What about? What had he eaten during the past four hours? Had he slept well the night before? Write all the details of the hap- pening in a blank book, and by and by you will have a history of these tan- trums that must enlighten you on their cause and their cure. Use the time to help adjust the| child to his life. Don't be hard on a child because he isn't like his lovely brother or sister. That thought of yours. may be the root of his fault. Don't expect a child to adopt habits of neatness, industry and the like in a short time. You didn’'t grow up in a minute yourself. But be active in helping children overcome defects and faults rather than leave them to time. Unaided time does not change us. It sets us hard and fast in the ruts.

On the other hand, the fancies of an elderly man often turn to flappers with- out regard for Spring or any other sea- son of the year. In the latter case age is intrigued and flattered by youth.

JOHN R. GUNN. Songs of the Night. Text: “Who Giveth Songs in the Night.”—Job, xxxv.10. The Bible has frequent references to songs in the night. “In the night his song shall be with me.” *“I will call to remembrance my song in the night.” * shall have a song, as in the night.” “And at midnight Paul and Silas sang praises unto God.” in the stocks, their backs tingling with hour of midnight burst forth singing hymns of praise. How strange those songs must have sounded in that dark { dungeon which, no doubt, had often | rung with oaths and curses. How could | these men in the midst of such dark- ness and suffering - lift their voices |in melodies of thanksgiving? “In the | night His song shall be with me.” That | is the answer. God has a way of giving | to His people “songs in the night.” | What & song is the book of Job! | |And let it be remembered that that | | wonderful song of trust and triumph | | which has sung its way down through | |the ages, bringing condolence and re- newed hope to millions of hearts, was | born in one of the darkest nights ever | experienced by any mortal being. | | “Pilgrim’s Progress,” which has chzered | and guided the pilgrimage of countless | | thousands, was a song of the night, | being born out of John Bunyan’s long | night in Bedford Jail. Fanny Crosby's | many hymns are all songs of the night. | Out of the night have come our best | poems, sweetest melodies and richest | literature. When they teach 2 bird to sing, they | darken its cage. And to teach us o sg, it seems God has to darken the | windows of our life.

Nothing | more. But the public finally came to Irecognize these mysterious, chilling | statements as announcements of the | executions of spies. | Spies—the foxes which gnawed at the | vitals of all countries involved in the war. Spies—the bane of governments and the scourge of commanders along the battle lines. Both men and women—thousands of the latter—were engaged in this secret, | hazardous occupation, and if their his- tory could be written in detail it would | form one of the most amazing chron- | icles of the world conflict. It would provide an almost irreconcilable mix- ture of bravery and cowardice, of un- selfishness and cupidity, of love and hatred, but whatever the motive which inspired this work there was one im- mutable fact that applied to all spies— they were playing with death. Both sides employed hosts of spies. I learned that England even had sples working in government offices in Ber- lin. I doubt not that the Germans had similar arrangements in allied capitals. Certainly the allied countries were filled with spies, and in the war zones they were everywhere. I knew of many be- jing shot along the front in France, | while I was attached to British general headquarters as war correspondent. One of the most common types of ¢py was the woman who bartered her- self for such crumbs of information as she might pick up from the men she selected as her prey. These women came from all walks of life. Paris, of course, was full of these women, Some of them maintained palatial homes and were gowned like princesses. They entertained lavishly and took no money from their guests— they were looking for information. Many an officer had an Arabian Night's romance for which he could not account, but he could have got an explanation from Berlin. ‘There were, of course, many other kinds of sples. Up in Flanders more than one farmer was caught using the arms of his windmill as a semaphore to communicate with enemy airplanes. These spies were shot against their mills and the buildings were burned. The war correspondents also discovered that some Flemish women were signaling enemy planes by arranging the family washing in a special manner on the grass of | their gardens. H Once we uncovered an interesting spy | in a well known hotel in Amiens, which | was not far from Albert.

We handed the informa- tion to the military authorities and the man was traced to Paris. He sent no | more wireless messages. The most striking spy work I en- countered was in Belgium. The brave little Belgian army, cooped up in the tiny bit of Belgian territory left un- occupied, had a squad of men who went regularly through the fighting lines and made their way to Brussels—the heart of the enemy territory. They actually had to pass through the “impassable” German lines before they won their way into the open country. What tremendous courage those chaps had! Naturally, many of them were caught and shot. But there were always others to take their places. One of the funniest incidents of the was involved a Teutonic princess. She crossed into a neutral country where she was very thoroughly examined to make sure that she was not an agent of the central powers. In fact, she was made to disrobe so that it might be de- termined whether she carried papers, It s0 happened that a newspaper had come into contact with the princess’ body during her train trip. The ink on the paper was wet and a large sec- tion of tvpe was reproduced on her White skin, unknown to her. The au- thorities saw this, and being unable to read it readily, since it was Tepro- duced backward, made the unfortunate lady pose while they made phof hs.
