Mat should be turned fre- quently, At one time turn them over sideways, and at another, lengthwise. Never allow more than a week to in- tervene between the times when the tiress is turned in one or the other of these ways. Each morning turn back the mattress as nearly from head to foot 48 you can. It does not have to be lifted, just raised from the s suf- ficiently for it to rest on the ings at & htly different position. Springs will indent the mattress, if ever so slightly, each night. By altering the position & mere trifle, the pressure does not come in identical spots long. Pillows require more than lifting off the bed, smoothing and retumln&w thelr positions after the bed has been made ready for them. They must be shaken vigorously each day, and it is advisable to punch them deftly. This rmits the fronds cf the feathers to uff out. It prevents them from mat- ting and felting together. Be sure that no feathers cling to the corners of the cases. Unless the pillows are thor- oughly beaten up and shaken about watls of feathers lodge in the corners and feel hard. At the same time the centers of the pillows are depleted of their downy fronds.

In this, our hypercivilized, life it is only in the Winter months that weather, pure and simple, remains a part of wild nature. Even in an apartment you can- not quite escape knowing that there 18 a blizzard, or an ice storm, or a thaw. In & country house or even a suburban one weather violently intrudes itself from December to March. The in the coal bin melts expensively away the harder the wind blows. The tracks of little hungry creatures of an early morning, are seen at the back door, where they have come prowling in search of scraps, in the piteous hope that something will have been tossed out to them. Your friend, the dog, bounds into the house with fur smel of the clear, frosty air; the cat gingerly about on the snow and returns with a disgusted expression. Poultry endures real suffering. The children, blowing on thelr nails, report the gruesome neighborhood news—so many ladies with broken legs from slipping on the ice; so many youngsters with t-nipped feet, and so forth. Little by little, you learn to look at the weather map in the newspa) or at your office building where usually, in Washington, it is posted, and watch with an anxious eye the great arcs of the storms and the cold waves as they sweep, like the raids of whirlwind Kurdish bands, over the continent. And if you like you can try your hand at weather predicting and test out haw much wiser you are than the Weather iction possessed esteemed citizen, Mr. Mitchell, official weather forecaster for the Di trict. He has, of course, the advantage sf a long experience, but even experience does not make one supérhuman, and nothing is trickier than weather pre- diction right here in Washington. M§ esteem for Mr. Mitchell is high; don't know how he does it. ‘The first essential in reading a weath- er map (and, by the way, there is a fascinating weather map in colors in glass in the Union Station) is_the ability to interpret pressure lines. Most of us amateurs merely look at the temperatures, but in great part the temperatures ars merely tied to the %chmot Wwheels of “the eddies of hi and low pressure. . From a high-pressure ares the winds swirl away; toward a low area they swirl inward.

They may als> bring ice-storms, espe- clally when a “low” gets stuck over an &rea; then fine old trees are split; street cars cease to run, cars skid and smash up, and everybody's temper goes to the bad. Nothing worse in the weather can happen, except when a tropical storm jumps its track, makes a raid up our coast, and, as in the Knickerbocker disaster, blankets the city under deep snow.

E Answer—A woman of 26 is 48 mature as & man of 40, and there is no rea- son why they should not marry and be ectly congenial. It is desirable that the husband should be older than his wife, bécause Women age faster than men do and because a settled man makes & much Better husband than a young man does. He is generally much better able to take care of & family, he has had his fling and is willing to settle down, he is generally far less exacting than a young husband is and easier to get along with. :‘hl man is the elder, ive or six rs is the ideal difference in ages between usbands and wives. o DOROTHY DIX.

An extravert, briefly speaking, is one who goes in for taking his outside world seriously and judiclously. That's why men who hold executive positions, such as Senators, Governors and of- ficials generally, belong to the ex- travert class. The word extravert means “to turn outward.” The world’s great statesmen, politicians and manip- ulators of public opinion have in all but a few notable cases been extraverts. But how do extraverts become ex- traverts? The central idea is com- gl‘omlu. ‘The truly successful extravert one who learns early in life that & fight is & loss to him, no matter who wins the battle. That is, it pays to nt creatures on earth we are not n{ our outside world seriously. We mistake ouf opinions for facts. We take ourselves too seriously. We have overevaluated our inside world of ideas and they are all too often errors in Jjudgment. & Social psychologists are beginning to say that modern society demands the extravert. The next step in the con- quest of nature is an understanding of human surroundings. «STOP SCRUBBING, ANN. TS REALLY FOOLISH ~ | KNOW/! YOURE GOING TO TELL ME ALL ABOUT RINSO AGAIN.
