WOMAN’S PAGE. MILADY BEAUTIFUL BY LOIS LEEDS. Correct Measurements. * Dear Miss Leeds: We are three girls of 22, 21 and 17 years of age and in height are 65, 63% and 64% inches, respectively. Wil you kindly tell us our correct bust: waist, hip, knee, calf and ankle measurements? DUTCH AND IRISH. Answer —As every individual differs from every other, the same is true of measurements, and 1 want my readers to realize that there is no definite set of specifications to which all must con- form. However, I will give you certain figures—the measurements ".of _young women supposed to be ideally formed— and you may compare your own meas- urements with them. For a slender young girl in the late teens or early twenties the following figures are con- sidered close to perfection: Height from 5 feet 3 inches to 5 feet 6 inches, and the weight from 120 to 130 pounds. Neck, 1212 or 13 inches; bust and hips, 34; waist, 26; thigh, 19 to 20; wrist, 6 to 7; ankle, 71 to 8; calf, 1315 ‘The figure of the mature woman is naturally more developed than that of a young girl, and she has more right to claim the title of “perfect” because lier development is complete. You may be interested in knowing that the perfect 36 measurements are as follows: Height, 5 feet 5 inches: neck, 13¢ inches; waist, 26 or 28 inches; hips, 40 inches; shoul- ders, 36 inches; upper arm, 12 inches; forearm, 9 inches; chest, 36, 37 to 38 inches; length of foot, 9 inches; thigh, DAILY DIET RECIPE DAILY DIET RECIPE GREEN TOMATO PRESERVES.

OUR CHILDREN BY ANGELO PATRIL That Obstinate Child. “I don't know what to do with my | child. He is 4 years old and obstinate as his grandfather. Do children inherit | obstinacy? If I tell him to come to me he sits down wherever he happens |to be.” If I want him to come in it is | better to tell him to stay out. Any attempt to force him to obey results in a scene. I am about worn out.” Try telling him to do just as he pleases and leaving him to do it. It is usually of little importance whether he comes to you or sits on the floor. Life | will go on as before. What is impor- |tant s that he learn to think right | The feeling of opposition that he is | cultivating is not healthy and it is im- portant that we teach him that oppo- | sition is needless. | “Would you give a child his own a You_ know better than to that. T would let him go his way onle to help him to a better way. I would [not stand by to see him hurt himself I would keep my hands off when I, | thought that would help him. To keep | from forcing a child to do my will is | not letting him go to seed on his own. | 'When a child says “No, I wont” to a perfectly reasopable request it is often the part of wisdom to say “Very well, my child; don't.”” Then go your way Busy yourself with some trifling thing, if you'can afford the time; if not, go on | with your work. Let your attitude be | one of preoccupation. “He is seemingly | excluded from your thought. The more | impersonal you can be the sooner he will let go. His opposition feeds on! | yours. Without support it must fall {” Do not make the mistake of main- | | taining an injured air. That will give {him a thrill of pleasure. That feeds his spirit of battle, He wants some | sort of demonstration of his power to annoy you. Keep remembering that and exclude him from your thought. When he ‘feels you do Dot care, when he feels | left out in the cold, no interest from any quarter coming to his relief, he | soon climbs down. | It is well to take ‘the child who is habitually contrary to the child spe- | flavor. use a powder base before put- | FOOD PROBLEMS | BY SALLY MONROE. { New Crop Apricots.
