' Saving to Buy and Buying to Save BY LYDIA LE BAR Saving to buy and buying to save are two methods of thrifty financial man- agement practiced by homemakers. The ,combination is the maximum of -prac- “ tical economy. It i5 seldom found in any one person, althoug! Siogan 3 “saving i ‘sa hers is the best, and is uually frank in criticizing the other method as tending e woman who to' extravagance. “buys to save” is equally critical of the , as one likely to method she discare cultivate scrimping. Looking at it impartially it is easy to discover the good in each and also how it has to be handled lest it does have the tendency suggested above. HER SLOGAN IS “WATCH THE PURSE.” For instance, the woman who saves to buy, watches very carefully to note just | them what . ean be cut down, an: THE DISMAL- FACE The face: that's gloomy and dejected, | the symbol of despair, in which all trouble is reflected, won't get you any- where. Itisa hmdl‘a'sur forever, to any mortal man, and it spoil your endeavor, queer your noblest plan. When I go forth to buy spaghetti, at Johnson's corner store, I find that wor- ries mean and petty have made his spirit sore. His face is clouded up and dismal, his voice is full of IEM. and gt.el, abnormal and abysmal, is brood- in his eyes. He wants to tell me of his worries, a chronicle of gloom, of business slumps, commercial flurries, that threaten him with doom. The at- mosphere is most depressing in John- son's corner store; and so I leave him there, confessing that I'll go back no more. Thus he affects a lot of pa- trons who hate to see him cry; and blooming brides and busy matrons go elsewhere when they'd buy. This Johnson is a man of merit, his virtue's wide and deep; but people simply can- not bear it to see him stand and weep. And 50 they go to Thomas Teeter, whose store is three doors down; his smile is sweet and growing sweeter, he never wears & frown. No doubt he has his daily troubles, like every other wight, but he dismisses them as bubbles, and registers delight. He says that trade is growing better with every passing hour; but yesterday he sold a sweater, today & sack of flour. His face is round and pink and jolly, and he is somewhat fat; and if he has some melancholy, he keeps it in his hat. WALT MASON, (Copyright, 1930.) MENU FOR A DAY. BREAKFAST.

She knows what she wants, and finds out what she can get it for. She studies the various makes and their ad- vantages over others cluring the time while she is saving to buy. Before she has the money laid aside she has de- termined what make to and why, if it is a household article. If it is a costume or other wearing apparel, she watches the styles and buys the best and probably an advance .style, so that ::b;vul remain in vogue as long as pos- e. ‘The. woman who “buys-to save” about the purchasing in an entirely dif- ferent way. She watches sales and gets bargains. She often saves one-fourth to one-half the original selling price. She learns to know values, for without such knowledge she cannot be certain of her wisdom in actual saving. She buys when she sees what she wants or when she knows she will want the article at some time in the near future. She is always on the look-out for reductions, and always is looking ahead for future requirements. It is true that she is often tempted to purchase because a thing is so cheap that it seems a pity not to get it. Her slogan is “Watch the chance,” and be- cause of it she has to learn to curb her desire to buy just becruse things are being sacrificed. She has to learn val- ues and the good points of makes, etc., or she cannot get the most for her money. ‘Whether a woman “saves to buy” or “buys to save,” a knowledge of what She should learn the advantages and disad- vantages of methods, what to ainst in each, and then follow {lections in her choice of one Preparation for School. Fear is one of the funciamental causes of school faflure the first term. The little - children are afraid ‘of school. Many of them hav: not been prepared for the new world they discover in the class room. They walk in dread and sit in terror for days on end. That kills all hope of growth. Until that i'ur is banished the child gains noth- ing. “You wait until you get to school! ‘The teacher will beat you good. She won't let you move.” “Just wait until the teacher sees what a bad child you are. She'll put you in the black closet and you won't get home m{; more.” “If you don't behave in school the teacher will pull your esrs out.” One such speech is enough to send a child to school in mortal terror.

They feared that.if they did 5o they might make a mistake and the ‘We have had children way or other. for months on who refused to speak end because some one had told them that if they sald words the wrong way the teacher would cut the end off their tongues.

It will make the teacher’s task well nigh impossible. Until she gains the confidence of the children she makes no progress. ‘Then why not prepare the children for school? Begin by telling them all its good points. Take them to visit the school. Let“them watch the children there at work and at play. Let them become acquainted with the teacher. Let them learn the plan of the building and accustom them to find their way about it. Prepare the child physically. If his teeth need attention, have them cared for months before school opening. Have all the vaccinations ‘done well before time. If tonsils or adenolds are trou- blesome, have them treated before the child goes to school. It is most unwise to’ wait until a child enters school and then begin a long series of treatments, | each of which is more or less of a shock to the child.

The success or failure of a child’s school life is set before he enters, not afterward. The school works on what the child brings to it. It never adds to his original equipment. It modifies and changes and leads, but it cannot add to what the child is. s ‘Then help the child all you can.

C, THURSDA FAMOUS JEALOUSIES Commodore Nutt Lost Faith in Women When Mis- Warren Married Gen. BY J. P. How much of Gen. Tom Thumb's ro- mance with Lavinia Warren was spon- taneous, and how much of it was due to the practical genius of P. T. Barnum, who saw .in the union of the dwarfs the prospect of untold numbers of dol- lars flowing into the strong boxes of them all? ‘We do not know, because all that has been written of the story has given it an aside of tragedy which awakens pity for another of Barnum's proteges and moneymakers, the - tiny Commodore Nutt, exhibition rival of Gen. Thumb and almost as famous. ‘The commodore also had felt a stir- ring of affection for Miss Warren. was jealous of any attentions that Gen. Thumb paid her, and whenever that in- dividual approached Lavinia, he strut- ted around like a protective bantam | rcoster. The general proceeded about his woo- ing with careful secrecy. He feared the commodore. Once during a friehdly scuffie in their dressing room, the lithe and active commodore had put him on his back easily. Moreover, the commo- dore was hot tempered, and liked to boast of his prowess with pistols and bowie knives. ‘The general found time to pay La- vinia attentions when Nutt wasn't looking, particularly on visits to Bar- num's Bridgeport home. One Saturday night he persuaded her to accept him. Tom Thumb., GLASS. “I WOULD NOT MARRY THE BEST WOMAN LIVING,” HE REPLIED. It was at this moment that Commo- dore Nutt unexpectedly arrived. He surveyed the lovers suspiciously and then went to the room of Barnum, who was reading in bed. ¥ “Mr. Barnum,” he said petulantly, “does Tom Thumb board here?” The showman paid no attention to this dig and him not to be fool- ish, but the little man went to bed in a very bad humor. He felt better the next morning, though, and returned to New York on Monday his usual self. On Wednesday the general came into Barnum'’s office. “Mr. Barnum,” he said, “I want somebody to tell Commodore Nutt that Lavinia and I are engaged. There'll be a row when he h-ars of it.” “Do it yourself, gener: said Bar- num. The general shuddered. dare,” he said. “Hed down.” Barnum undertook the task in. con- junction with Lavinia. When they broke the news to the commodore, he turned pale and choked. Then he turned on his heel, brokenly saying to Lavinia as he departed, “I hope you may be happy.” Barnum tried later to persuade the commodore to pay court to Minnie War- ren, a fourth of his dwarfs. would not marry the best woman he replied. “I don't believe in “I wouldn't knock me MILADY BEAUTIFUL BY LOIS Premature Wrinkles.

Of mahogany, the tall, slender pole with its three feet, weighted to keep it from tipping, supports an oval, square or_heart-shaj shield. Inside of shield the ladles of the eighteenth century used to put their fine bits of needlework, for there it could be displayed to the best advan- tage and be well protected. Today we find the same use for it, and aside from needlework, we soms times use fine pieces of materials, espe- clally those which are unusually inter-. esting to us. Perhaps a piece of great- great-grandmother’s wedding dress or shawl, a lace fan worked into the shape of the shield or a plece of Chinese em- broidery that may have been brought to us from abroad.

Have you had a physical exami- nation recently and do you get a suffi- cient amount of sleep and also daily exercise in the fresh air? ‘The egg-white treatment to which you refer will help to tighten the flabby skin under the eyes. Before using the egg cleanse the face with a cleansing cream or oil. Remove first the tissue square and then wash with a mild soap and tepid water. Dry and apply a tissue cream, patting it around the eyes very gently. While the skin here needs to be massaged with food creams you must be fally careful not to stretch the skin still more. So apply it by pat- ting gently with the tips of the fingers. When the massage is completed wipe off the excess cream and pat the skin with pads of absorbent cotton moistened in witch hazel. Allow this to on the skin. Now you are ready for the white of egg mask. Separate the yolks from the whites and beat the whites slightly. Apply to the wrinkled rts with a small brush of camel’s hair. Let it dry and when the first coating has dried put on a second coat. When the second coat is dry paint on the beaten yolk of the egg and allow it to dry. Leave on for at it 20 minutes. This treatment not only helps greatly in smoothing out the wrinkles, but it also tones and tightens the skin. In removing the egg mask use tepid water and a soft cloth. If the skin is inclined to be tender soften the egg first by using cold cream or oil. After the pack has been removed dry the skin and paint on & mild astringent or skin tonic. This treatment may be given once a week. In addition always apply a tissue cream at night and in the morning pat on a mild astringent or skin tonic before applying powder base and make-up. (2) Use one teaspoonful of boric acid powder to a pint of tepid water. Use this three times a day if possible. A salt-water wash is also good for tired eyes: use a pinch of salt to a_cupful of tepid water. LOIS LEEDS.

Had he turned to the left, he would have headed toward the Old Pasture. But he didn’t know that. You see, he didn't know anything about the Great World. When Impy left the old stone wall, he suddenly felt as if he had left all safety behind him. Always there was a chance to dodge out of sight in the old stone wall. Running along the ground is a very different matter. Impy would scurry along for a few feet, then sit up abruptly and look and listen. Anxiously his eyes ‘would search for something to hide under in case of danger. The far- ther he went the less he wanted to see the Great World and the re he wished that he had remaine® some- where near the old stone wall. He was too proud to go back. So there was nothing to do but go ahead. Preseptly Impy discovered that there was a rall fence with some bushes wing along it. He climbed up on a lower rail. This was better!
