Home in Good Taste BY SARA HILAND. 5 b ! e | You. jpyourself, SUB ROSA BY MIML Borrowed Finery, The girl who thinks she is shy and self-consclous s often the one who lacks faith in herself. She probably would deny this vigorously if she were thus accused. But it would very likely to be true, just the same. It she hasn’t confidence in hersell she goes around trying to borrow con- fidence from others, which she they will give her by their admiration and approval, The reason that she seems shy and self- s is that she is so -extremely sensitive to the thoughts and opinions of others. When she mingles with a group of people she begins (mmediately to worry as to how she impresses them and what they think of her. So she has no time left to put her best foot forward. It is abnormal to be so dependent on the peopfe around you and their approval and disapproval. Of course, it’s natural to want to be liked: all of us crave that. But when this craving becomes abnor 50 that you think of nothing else, it's time to call a halt and look into the situation to discover what the trouble is. And 10 to 1 the trouble is this: That you've lost faith and confidence in You'll say, “But how can I have faith and confidence in myself unless people do like me?” And I'l admit it is a sort of a vicious circle. To believe in yourself you need to have the approval of others; to gain the approval of others you must believe in yourself. You can’t stroll around in borrowed finery all the time. But you've just got to make a break, and cut your way out of this circle to find faith in yourself. Learn to de- cide things for yourself. for yourself without the help-of others, and you'l be surprised at the fine sense of achievement you feel when they are finally, successfully accom- | plished. Pind out what your partic tal- ents are—and you know you have some —and use those talents. As you do this, you'll come to believe in yourself more and more. Read about cther people who have lived strongly and ac- complisned worth-while (hings. If you will say to yourself that you are not dependent on other people and whether or not they like you, and that you will think for yourself and act for yourself no matter what they say or do, you'll grow stronger. And present- 1y you will find that your independence has gained ‘you their friendship end respect. If you have some work of your uwn to do and do well, you won 't have time to wonder what other people think of And as you gain confidence in yourself, you'll find that you have gained the confidence d liking of others; so that you won't need to tr to borrow these any longer, for you will have earned them. NANCY PAGE Nursery Schools Give Good Training. BY FLORENCE LA GANKE. Joan was anxious to get back to nur- sery school. Aunt Nancy was nothing loth to have her go, for she felt that the training was admirable. She was telling about the school and its routine to a friend of hers who lived in a small town where there was no such hool. “I should think you would get a trained child psychologist and educator to start one. But if you can't you can do almost the same “things with your own child at home. Of course, the school does teach them how to get along with other children. That is one of its best features. But you can ask in the neighbors’ children and do about the same thing. “In the morning when they arrive there is daily inspection for cleanliness. mtho !ebverht)‘: child, l}.ha youngster reath or swollen throat can be .detected without undue fuss.

Seplember 9, 1870.—President Grant left this city tonight by train with Gen. Porter to return to his Summer resi- dence at Long Branch. Following his arrival here yesterday morning the President .was busy cumlnuoull‘y, at- tending to Dubllch:flllm; ‘While here was the guest of Secretary Robeson at his u.m::n on I street, but he visited the White House yesterday and today. About 10 o'clock yesterday, he left the White House on foot and walked over to the State Department, whers he remained a short time. He then walked to the ‘Treasury Department for a conference with Assistant Secretary Richardson. . A little later, at the White House, he conferred with Secretary Robeson and S ry Cox. He walked over to the ‘Treasury again with Secretary Cox. This morning, after going first to the White House, he walked over to the War Department, where he spent some time with Gen. Shriver, acting Secretary of War, The cabinet met with him at the White House at noon. The President is expected to remain at Long Branch until October, when he will return with his family for the Winter in ‘Washington. The State Department has received word by cable that United States Min- ister Washburne, at Paris, under in- structions from President Grant, has notified the new government of France of its recognition by the United States and tendered the congratulations of President Grant on the establishment of a republic. Minister Washburde made the announcement in an inter- view with Jules Favre, who was much moved, and exclaimed, “I receive the notification with gratitude and pro- found emotion.” ‘The Prussians have occupied Rheims, according to the latest news received here from the war area. They are expected to appear before the walls of Paris in a few hours. It is reported that the new republic of PFrance has chosen Ledru Rollin as its Ambassador to the United States. The part of Lorraine now occupied by the Prussian army and all of Alsace ‘will probably be demanded from France by Prussia as an indemnity. Lessons in English BY W. L.

Soon the doors of all the school buildings will swing open to admit stud- ents new and old. The school age is an important one for eve 1, because it is during this period thrzt':ll;e forms the mental snd physical habits that will go through life with her. Dur- ing these busy years she may lay the foundations for a beautiful, healthy womanhood or through ignorance or neglect she may undermine her physical fitness and cheat herself of her rightful share of good looks. ‘The principal idea that I would like to impress on every youthfui reader is that good health and good.looks are closely related. The girl who is starv- ing herself in order to lose weight, who omits breakfast and eats an inadequate lunch is seriously undermining her con- stitution. Her complexion looks dull and pasty. Growing girls need more food than mature women of the same height and weight. The wrong choice of foods upsets the digestive system and may bring on beauty's worst enemy, constipation, and the skin becomes sal- low. coarse and blemished. ‘This brings us to the question of make-up for young girls. The girl who early aequires the habit of loading her face with powder and rouge will soon ruin her complexion. It will become peppered with blackheads, enlarged pores and often pimples. The dry rouge and powder settle in the pores. and when moistened by the natural oil and sweat on the skin, they expand, stretch- ing the pores open wide. The presence of blackheads shows that the skin is not being thoroughly cleansed each day. As one grows older the skin on the face thickens somewhat and loses its youth- ful bleom and delicacy; then is the time to begin using make-up regularly. Sleep is an important factor in the schoolgirl's beauty program. Lack of sufficient sleep causes ugly shadows under the eyes, dulls the eyes them- selves and makes one nervous and irri-' table. It has been estimated that girls from 12 to 14 years of age should sleep 10 or 10%; hours every night; girls from | 14 to 16 need a little less; girls from 16 to 18 years of age need from 9 to 9'% hours of restful slumber out of each 24_hours. Schoolgirls should not be bothered with facial wrinkles, but of fact, many of them are. Wrinkles around the eyes that come from eye strain or squinting when one plays out as a_matter | in the sun without a hat are prevent- able and curable, too, if the cause is removed. Laugh wrinkles about the mouth and crow’s feet on young faces need not be tolerated. It is usually the nervous girls who and 'screw up their faces when they talk or laugh who develop y. Last, but not least, among the school- girl's problems is her choice of shoes. She should wear low heels (1% to 11, inches) to school and for sports. H.gher heels are suitable to wear with after- noon or evening frocks, but spike heels are never in good taste for young gils. (Copyright. 1929.) e e y Quick Pies.
