Good humor is & therapeutic meas- ure, which means heipful to health. It's & mental health food or tonic. It takes its ‘with occupational ther- apy, well by doing pleasant things in & pleasant way; doing things with interest is a food and tonic to the mind. Besides, there's some kind of & devil who finds nervous mischief for idle brains. 1If you don’t turn your mind outward to useful tasks, you are likely to develop an ingrowing mind. Next to occupation is relaxation, and the saving sense of humor. Now this is not the vapid philosophy of smile, smile, whether there's anything to smile at or not, nor is it an optimistic call to cheer, nor yet a reminder that “laugh and the world laughs with you, weep and you weep alone"—on the contrary, it is in point to remind the incorrigible, sunshiny cheer-leader that a common association of the adjective “cheerful” is with idiot, A sense of humor is not the joker in the deck of human traits, but has a definite value. Nor is it the knave nor the king, but when rightly played it is a trump card, For the most part life is cerious and #ober, and - responsible people carry cares, often quite a load of them. Hence the need of the offset of relaxa- tlon. As usual, childhood offers a clue, and what children do beyond all else is to play. If you forget how to play you are in danger. It isn't only that “all work and no play makes Jack 2 dull boy,” but that it makes him, when he becomes a grown-up John, a nervou: man, The young of many animals play, but none, not even the chimpanzee, rises to the full mental level of a laugh. The unmistakable early sign of intelli- gence is that first infant smile. And what a great and glorious thing is the uproarious laugh of a small boy when everybody is tumbled over in a scram- ble in the screen comedy. For the moment we are not interested in what he laughs at, but only in his large wholesome capacity to laugh. Just as Wwe of maturer years can't sleep as we did when we were children, so like wise we can't laugh; we can't let our- selves go. Without knowing it or meaning to we have practiced mirth control. Now and then one meets who remains a great overgrown boy I have in mind one who is at the head of a prosperous organization, just y, for whom life is a joke as well as a responsible enterprise. ~ He is & living fund of fun; he just can't help playing all the time. He is over- flowing with happiness and delights in making others happy. But he does a lot of thinking, too. Few of us can b built like tha > we have to culti the jovial mood of relaxation.

ANCY PAGE Nancy Plans Corner Cup- boards for Home. BY FLORENCE LA GANKE. Built-in_cupboards seemed to Nancy an integral part of the new house. She talked them on every occasion. The architect submitted some sketches for the dining room cupboards. “I have suggested two types of corner cupboards,” said he. “The first one is the familiar tri-cornered affair. put any decorative bits of pottery on them. The back may be papered with days. Of you may choose glass for shelves and mirror glass for the walls back of the shelves. nice when you have some colored glass which you want to display. I have cupboard and have put shelving behind them. However, that shelving is not much good since you have only a tri- angular space at your disposal. You can't place linens, for instance, on those shelves.” “That is all right, Mr. Lynn, since I have a high boy which I plan to use in the dining room. It has plenty of drawer space which will allow; me to lay out my good table linen.” “Now here, Mrs. Page, is another idea for a cabinet. In this one I have used the corner cupboard idea, but I have put in glass doors and have built the cupboard up to the ceiling. There is no beautiful curve as I have at the top of the other one. “This could be built parallel with the wall if you don't care for the corner cupboard idea. It all depends upon the other things you plan to put in the room and the period furniture you use. This square cupboard would go well with a Georgian or Elizabethan room. Take time to think it over and I'll plan according to your decision.” Dining rooms imply food.

There is only one | thing certain about it, you are certain there is going to be plenty of weather— a perfect and grand review. but you never can tell which end of the proces- sion is going to move first. You fix up | for the drought; you leave your um- | | brella in the house and sally out with | | your sprinkling pot, and 10 to 1 you | get_drowned.

And the thunder. When the thun- | der commences to merely tune up, and scrape, and saw, and key up the instru- ments for the performance, strangers say, “Why, what awful thunder you have here!” But when the baton is raised and the real concert begins you'll find that stranger down in the cellar, with his head in the ash-barrel, Now, a5 to the size of the weather in New England—lengthways, I mean.

England weather; no language could do it justice. But, after all, there are at least one or two things about that weather (or, if | you please, effects produced by it) which we residents would not like to part with. If we had not our bewitching Autumn foliage, we should still have to credit the weather with one feature which | compensates for all its bullying v garies—the ice-storm—when a leafless | tree is clothed with ice from the bot- tom to the top—ice that is as bright | and clear as crystal; every bough and | twig is strung with ice-beads, frozen | dew-drops, and the whole tree sparkles, cold and white, like the Shah of Persia’s diamond plume. | Then the wind waves the branches | and the sun comes out and turns all | those myriads of beads and drops to | prisms_that glow and hum and flash | with all manner of colored fires, which change and change again, with incon- | ceivable rapidity, from blue to red, | from red to green, and green to gold; the tree becomes a sparkling foun-| tain, a very explosion of dazzling jew- els, and it stands there the acme, the | climax, the supremest possibility in art | or nature of bewildering, intoxicating, intolerable magnificence! One cannot | make the words too strong. | Month after month I lay up hate and | grudge against the New England | weather, and when the ice-storm comes | at last I say,.“There, I forgive you now; the books are square between us; you | don’t owe me & cent; go and sin some | more; your little faults and foibles count | for noshing; you are the most enchant- | | ing weather in the world!” Today in | Washington History BY DONALD A.

Usually the over. weight woman thinks only in_negative terms of losing excess weight. She studies caloric values and puts on her black list all foods that she considers fattening, and She becomes thinner, but at what price! Her skin becomes flabby and sallow, there are dark pouches under her eyes and she feels tired and nervous. The beauty problems of the woman | who is losing weight by this method | are greater than they were before. The way to avoid these difficulties 1is to think of reducing not merely in terms of tearing down excess fat, but of bullding up a good figure. A woman reducing will limit but not eliminate proteins, starches, fats and sweets from her diet. She will eat plenty of leafy vegetables and fruits and whole-grain cereals, as the reducing diet must pro- vide sufficlent bulk. Tea and coffee and white bread do not make a good reduc- ing diet; these beverages encourage constipation, and the bread does not contain the important mineral salts and vitamins which must be in every et. Exercise must be included in the re- ducing program in order to build firm, healthy muscles in place of the flabby fat. As the cushion of fat below the chin melts away the skin hangs in folds, which looks worse than the original double chin. To prevent this unsightly condition one must not lose weight too fast in the first place (a pound a week is enough), and then one must tone up the throat muscles by regular exercise. Neck exercises are very simple and ‘con- sist of head turning, neck bending and rotating. After the brief exercise period Two-Minute Manicure. Have you ever been in the terrible position of having to dress quickly for an important engagement and having your finger nails look impossible? The more important the engagement the more vitally necessary it is that your hands should look as exquisite as every woman’s hands should look. Here's a suggestion for a manicure which can be done in two minutes: You must have on hand an adequate supply of manicuring necessaries. You must_have a bottle of cuticle remover and bleach, polishing powder or paste, a very big, well padded buffer, an orangewood stick, really good emery boards, cold cream and curved mani- cure scissors that really cut. You may not need all these for your two-minute manicure. Begin by scrubbing the nails with hot water, soap and a nail brush and clean under them with a pointed file. Roll some cotton around the orangewood | stick, dip it in the cuticle remover, go round the edges of the nails and under them, using a generous amount. Scrub them off once more, for all these cuticle | removers are drying and must be re- | moved themselves. Dry the hands, clean under them again~ (the remover will make it possible to get a lot of dirt and unwanted skin from underneath) and rub cold cream thoroughly around | the edges of the nails. Wipe this off, i push back the cuticle with an orange- wood stick, put a little polishing powder on your buffer and give them a very quick shine. You may have to dip them in water again to scrub off the powder, if so, wipe the powder from your buffer | and ‘give each nail one of two quick strokes to bring back the this may sound like a lot, | daily in less than two minutes. are hangnails or rough skin at the cor- ut I do it with the scissors, the manicure will take more than two minutes. But if you're pressed for time chis needn't be both- ered with. The nails are quickly bleached and polished, the cream gives a smooth edge.
