W Metal-Thread OMAN’S PAGE. Em-broidery BY MARY MARSHALL. you want a cold-weather afternoon that is just a little out of the metal thread embroidery. Very little of the metal thread actually shows, but enough to give an interesting glint to material when the light strikes it. of metal thread you might use sort of brightly contrasting colored * ‘The material is embroidered in bands, with small cross-stitches of the metal threads appearing on the right side. To make these bands, mark the material with chalk or pencil on the wrong sice, making three paraliel lines a half inch apart. Mark the first line every half inch. On the next line make the first dot just half-way between the two dots of the first line, and 8o on. Fasten thread on the wrong side and make a small cross-stitch wherever the dots ap- pear, running the thread along on the wrong side. % Be careful not to draw the material up when taking the stitches and leave the embroidery thread rather loose on the wrong side, so that it will not pucker. When the embroldery is done, rreus on the wrong side with an fron hat is not hot enough 'to scprch the material. ‘This sort of embroidery is especially appropriate for wool crepe, as the stitches sink into the slightly rough surface of the material. Everyday Psychology BY DR. JESSE W. SPROWLS. People and Things. During the course of an average day you probably pass judgment on several thousand items of interest. Of all these judgments, there are really only two inds—judgments about things and judgments about human beings. Individuals differ enormously in re- gard to these two kinds of judgments. Some specialize on things, some on human beings. If there were some way to keep a record of the “whats” and “whoms” you pass judgment on you might in & few days get some idea of the make-up of your personality. Introverts specialize on things, ex- traverts on human beings. This means that the introvert is a plain economist, while the extravert is pretty likely to be some sort of social climber. To put it still another way, the introvert is an appraiser, the extravert a eritical fauit- finder. ‘Those who think only of things are pretty likely to develop either a philos- opfy of despair or one of abounding hope. Despair leads to self-ostracism. Hope leads to theology, which is a Jong- tlm%x view of the righteousness of the world. ‘Those who think mostly about per- sons develop a sensitive social con- sciousness. This social consciousness sometimes serves them well. But more often it distorts judgment. When one starts worrying about who is going to do what, one loses sight of the fact that circumstances, that is, things, as well as men, have a share in the wold what it is. Cop¥rignt, 1930.)

The constant repetition in this de- partment that we offer a feeding leaflet to any mother who will send a self- addressed, stamped envelope for it must become monotonous to those readers who have been following the depart- ment for years. Obviously it isn't said too often, though, for a recent letter asks exactly the questions that are covered in the leaflet. “Please let me_ have wyour opinion of my baby,” Mrs, E. J. G. writes. “She is nearly three months old, weighed 7 pounds 4 ounces at birth and now weighs 13 pounds. She has six bottles a day at three hour intervals in day- time and none after 9:30 at night. The formula consists of 26 ounces of milk, 6 of water and 6 tablespoons of Maltose. 1s this right? “I also give two tablespoons of orange juice. Is that enough? She has this mixed with water just before her bath. “When shall 1 start cod liver oil? She had sunbaths until it became too cold. How much cod liver oil shall she have? She sucks her thumb a great deal, but is a very gocd baby and seldom cries. She needs no attention during the night.” The baby has made a six-pound gain in three months, ene pound more than the average baby makes. She is getting slightly more food than one might con- sider a conservative amount, but her condition is so very good that I would certainly make no change. Alwhys let well enough alone. One bottle of orange juice daily is considered the proper amount for & bottle-fed baby. We must always re- member that bottle-fed babies must get an adequate allotment of vitamin C, and orange juice or tomato juice furs nishes this in abundance. Increase one tablespoonful a day and then wait a month or so before adding more. Cod liver oil should be started im- mediately. Begin with fivé drops of plain cod liver oil end increase a drop a day up to two teasoonfuls. 1t seems better for the sake of baby's digestion to divide the amount of oil into three doses and to give a dose following each meal instead of giving the whole amount at one meal. Two teaspoonfuls of oil would be a lot for so small a baby to megotiate at one time, and present-day doctors lean toward sufficient oil, es- pecially in Winter, as a preventive of rickets. Irradiated oils, or fortified oils, may be used, but only under expert guidance. These are not to be dosed by amateurs. Your next consideration will be cereal. ‘This is also discussed in the afore- mentioned feeding leaflet. Cereal is begun in teaspoonful amounts and in- creased gradually up to one-half cup at six months, sometimes a whole cup in the day by one year. This, of course, depends entirely on your own baby, his Mking for cerials, and the amount he takes willingly. SUB ROSA Improving In-Laws. “Dear Mimi: The other day I over- heard an old lady saying that in all her life she had never ‘had words' with & single ‘one of her husband’s relatives. I am to be married next month, and am_so anxifus to get on with my husbanb's family. me of them I like and some of them I'd never they |choose as friends, not because they S by "z‘, fi"md_"uen'z all right but because they're Tked | 5o uncongenial. We have no tastes in ‘t’l;:’u:hm Q:\l:: ;T:i commeon, nothing really to talk about. 1 suppose I'll have to se¢ a good deal of them all, so I may as well But how?” “The best recipe for getting along with in-laws is eompounded of three parts sense of humor, three parts taet and three parts desire-to-please. You must check your critical facuity at the door. You must blind yourself consciously to every unlovely trait in these, your new relations. You must develop a imlet eye for their good qualities. ou must ladle out flattery gwith a generous hand. Try to forget that your husband’s Aunt Mary has the disposition of a sore-nosed bear, and be sure to praise her very excelient cooking. Overlook Cousin Margaret's sly malice. It will be easier to do so when you realize that its origin lles in thwarted youth and disappointed hopes. Uncle Herbert's wife prides herself on being the best-dressed woman in town. Ask her advice aboyt clothes. You needn't necessarily follow it. Uncle Herbert himself is a long- winded old bore, but an hour spent in listening to his stories is time well em- ployed. It's so hard for him to get an audience that he’ll repay your sacrifice by singing your praises to the sky. ‘The trouble with in-laws, as with one’s own blood kin, is that one eannot select them. They come ready-made, wrapped and sealed—and one can like the mixture was fluffy sliced bananas | them or lump them. After all, they’re a good deal Iike other people when everything is said It's chiefly due to the label that we face them with such trepida- tion, If you are determined to get along with them, to make them like you ehat is half the battle. It more women entered marriage fecling s you do the in-law bogey would soon disappear.

Answer—There is so much to be said ‘on both sides of this question that your final decision must be determined by the girl's personality. 1If she is & very timid and dependent sort of girl, one who still clings t» mother’s hand when she walks, 80 to speak, send her away from home, where she will be among strangers and will have to learn to be self-reliant. 1f she is a girl who is too popular with the boys and has too many dates and runs around too_much, it is also well to send her away from home to some school where her mind will not be so much distracted from her books. If she is & plain girl, lacking in personal attraction, the sort of girl that men pass by and who will not be likely to marry and who will probably have to support herself as long as she lives, then, by all means, send her to some famous school, where her degree will carry a distinction with it that will enable her to command & high salary as a teacher. Once upon a time I came home from Europe on a steamship with & young woman who told me a most pathetic tale of how she had nearly starved in Paris studying art, and I asked her if she could mot have got just as good instruction in this country as abroad and at less sacrifice. “Certainly I could,” she replied, “but the fact that & school can advertise that its art teacher is ‘a pupil of Julian’s and studied in such and such a studio in Munich doubles my salary.” On the other hand, the advantage of keeping a girl at home is that you form her character yourself, instead of intrusting the job to strangers, and you bind her to you with the ties of daily association. Children who are sent away from home to school when they are young never have the close intimacy with their parents that those do not have always lived in continual contact with mother and father. ‘Then, too, the girl who is educated at home keeps up her ties with the boys and girls with whom she is reared, and she has a much better time socially when she is grown than the girl does who has been educated away from home i and who has to break into the right set when she comes back. So, if your daughter is just the ordinary, pretty, girly girl who is sure to marry in a year or two anyway, I should educate her at home and spend the money I would thus save in giving her a trip abroad when she finishes school.

R., in thinking that & woman's glory is in her hair, and I don't blame you for being furious with your wife for having ll:er lovely tresses cut off. But don’t let a little thing like that break up your ome. : Don't split hairs, so to speak, with happiness. After ali, it isn't what is outside of a woman's head that counts so much as what is inside, and there are lots more important things about her than her hair. 8o go back and make up your quarrel, and doubtiess when your wife seés how much it hurts you for her to have her hair bobbed she will let it grow. Anyway, the hairdressers say that bobbed hair is going out of fashion. DOROTHY 3 (Copyright, 1930.)
