WOMAN'’S PAGE. Things That Induce Laughter BY LYDIA LE BARON WALKER. HEN you make out your bud- get for the new year do not forget to include good health in it. Every budget that I have seen has on it an item of “Doctor's bill” or “Sickness,” but I have never seen one that had “Good health.” The “Make-ends-meet” budget plan that is before me has both “Doctor and dentist” and “Drugs,” so “whoever uses that plan must fecl pretty THINGS THAT BRING LAUGHTER ARE A GOOD INVESTMENT. sure that illness lies in wait during the coming months. Would it not be bet- ter to set down “Health protection,” and have the mind dwell on how to keep well rather than how to pay the costs of illness? The idea certainly is pleasanter. I once rea NANCY PAGE Gold Stars and Light on New Year Cake. BY FLORENCE LA GANKE. d that a physician had made Whenever Nancy had a golden New Year day party she baked a special gcld cake in a large star-shaped pan. There was one year when she had mis- laid her star pan. That yeAr she baked a cake in the round tin and then laid on top of it & large star cut from card- board and olled so it would not stick to the cake. With a sharp knife she trimmed the cake into the star shape Here is a recipe for the cake Cream three tablespoonfuls butter an astounding experiment whereby he | showed that the effect of laughter on the heart action is to regulate it. If it is very slow a good laugh, which raises the spirit, brings the heart action up. If the pulse is beating too fast hearty laughter brings it down to normal or_thereabouts. So laughter, the great indicator of good cheer, has its function as well as its pleasant aspect. Just suppose we set down “Laughter” instead of “Drugs.” This would seem like a prac- tical joke before hearing of the experi- ment. But in the light of it there is the certainty that laughter would at ast diminish the drug costs. Besides its action on the heart, laughter is re- puted to be one of the best digestives It certainly is more agreeable than a dose of soda as a corrective. So let us see that the wish of a happy new year counds forth during the days to come through our jovous laughter. Another aspect of good health bud- geting is that it makes us think of ways to keep well. Instead of adding to sickness expenses through all the long lists of illness that flesh is heir to through neglect of rest, let us have a care not to get overtired. Think of the health protection item in the budget and let the thought bring results. It is far pleasanter to sit down for a few moments when we feel we have been over-vigorous, and let the tired body relax, than to push ahead when bones ache and muscles are straining. Unless we obey the dictates of the weary phy- sique we are laid up with doctor's bills to think about and probably to worry over. There are plenty of agreeable ways to keep well. In fact most of the ways are pleasant—and inexpensive, too. S0 consider well before omitting health protection in your budget for 1932. Nonsense books, cheerful stories and pleasant reading can b included in the good health budgeting without being considered expensive. They help keep us well, as do occasional good times. 1931) (Copyright, Dainty Pie.

For a | | dinner or theater dress, or a dress in | | which you may sit for hours playing | | cards it would be cbviously a better plan | | to confine the rose trimming to the | front of the skirt. Buy the roses ready made if you can afford to, but if you are bent on econ- cmy you may make them yourself.

DorothyDix (CONTINUED FROM MONDAY) HE sixth quality that fits a man to be a good husband is generosity, and the wise virgin keeps a wary eye out to not> how a man reacts to the money proposition before she says “yes” when he pops the question. For of all the vices under the sun, none is so disillusion- ing, none slays love so quickly as penuriousness, and no husband is so hard to endure as the tightwad Seventl. an understanding of women. Most men desire to be good husbands and make their wives happy, and when a man fails as a nus- band it is oftener through stupidity than intention. Men's alibi for this is that women are strang>, mysterious, incomprehensible creatures that no human intellect can fathom. Which is all nonsense. Women are as easy to read as a kindergarten primer, and the only reason that men don't understand them is that they don't take the trouble to study them BUT the result is the same. Men go blundering along trampling all over women’s feelings, making them miserable when they might just as well mak> them blissful, getting into rows with them when it would be 50 easy to handle them peaceably. So, in picking out a husband, select a man who knows why you do things; who knows why you cry when you are glad and why you want to g0 out and buy something to express your joy and who will remember an- niversaries and bring you a 15-cent bunch of flowers that he picked out himself because they matched your eyes instead of just ordering $20 worth of roses from the florist. ional ability. If we are to believe men dumbness a wife's chief virtue, but I have yet to find a woman who craved a silent husband. After a woman has spent the day alone in a house with only the children for company she is bottled up with thoughts and ideas that she wants to get out of her system. She wants to talk and be talked to, and her idea of a pleasant evening is spending it with her husband in & congenial gabfest <{IGHTH, convers: they consider Ninth, & sense of humor.

Far more important to a woman than his brains or his heart or his ability to make money is her husband's disposition. For it matters not to her how brilliant he is nor how successful, if he is gloomy and grouchy and cantankerous and fault-finding. So, in choosing a husband, pick out a man who is good-natured and amiable and easy to get along with and who is tender and kind and sympathetic and you will live happily ever after, as the old fairy tale rays.

The discoveries tend to unsettle the minds of some. There are those who become depressed every time sclence springs a new theory. no attention to the progress of science Science should not be depressing, even to the few who worry about their in- ability to comprehend it. On the con- trary, it's a mental stimulus to those ! who possess an imagination capable o expanding without geing to pieces There was a tire, and not s> many years ago, when thousands of persons believed that the world was likely to “come to an end” most any day. The “millennial” fear (or is it hope?) may yet have a few local flare-ups, espe- cially after each new war or period of depression, dispelled that old delusion. Science has given us something to look forward to. It has replaced fear with hope. There are those who worry about the gasoline supply. Wkat will happen when all the oil is pumped cut of the earth? Science already knows what to do. At one time the theory of evolution was very depressing: that is, to many persons. They didn't like to imagine what their ancestors were 10,000,000 years ago. All these vain imagings are ready to go into the discard. Evolu- { tion is nothing other than expectation (hope) based on past experience. (Copyright, 1931.) NATURE’S CHILDREN BY LILLIAN COX ATHEY.

On close examination you can see that the wee serpent is a tiny caterpillar who s living on the plant tissue in the leaf. His mother, a very small moth with narrow wings fringed with hair evidently remembers that the juicy leaf tasted good to her, for she places her speck of an egg on the nasturtium leaf.

To ever In qua Jumper the Hare was having a good time. Yes, sir, he was having a good | time. He was teasing Reddy Fox and you know some people do have a good time teasing others. Jumper might have told you that he was merely getting even. You know almost every one likes to get even with those who have made | them uncomatortable. Many times had Reddy hunted Jumper and made him jrun and dodge for his life. So now Jumper was getting even by teasing Reddy, going almost within® jumping distance of Reddy as he crouched in the cnow but always stopping just out of reach. You see Jumper could move about on the snow freely without sink- ing in, but Reddy couldn't Now Jumper had been so intent on teasing Reddy that he hadn't been as watchful as he should have been. So he had not seen Mrs. Reddy when she appeared following Reddy’s trail. Then she took care that he should have no chance to see her as she worked her way around to a hiding place close to where Jumper had been hopping about. So at least, all unsuspecting of danger, he hopped straight toward Mrs. Reddy. Mrs. Reddy flattened herself in the snow a bit more and her feet were drawn under her and set for a swift jump. Her eyes gleamed with hunger and_eagerness. Nearer came Jumper If he kept on as he was headed he would hop right into her paws. It was when one more little hop would have brought him within easy jumping dis- tance that Jumper stopped abruptly. Mrs. Reddy, watching him closely, saw a look of fright come into his eyes and saw him_set himeelf for instant fiight. It was clear to her that he had seen something that alarred him and that he would take to his long legs and get him away from there as fast as pos- sible Mrs. Reddy knew that it was now or never. She sprang with all her strength. Had she been on bare ground that leap would have been successful. As it was the snow under her feet gave just enough to cause her to fall short. She just missed Jumper. He almost turned a back somersault in his haste to get away. Off he went in great leaps past the place where Reddy Fox crouched. Reddy sprang, but he too just missed, and Jumper disappeared among the snow-covered trees. Reddy had quite lost his temper. He glared at Mrs. Reddy. “That's the time u did it!” he barked. “Why didn't you have sense enough to wait until that fellow was near enough? You are old enough to know better than to make such a mistake. If you had just minded your own business and kept away from here I would have had that fellow.” Now this was quite unjust-and Mrs, suddenly you realize that you have nothing_ta wear it with. The first thing to do is to plan to live in ome, or at most, two colors a year Don't be tempted by anything outside those colors. That means you will save nats, shoes and a dozen other things. The most effective outfit for a girl in an office, who doesn't want to spend much money, is this: A long coat, a skirt, either of the same material or one which matches it exactly in color and harmonizes in material; two waists one formal and one simple, or a formal waist and a sweater. The waists should be either a lighter or a darker shade of the same color. There, you see, you have two complete costumes. You need only one hat to match both. You will always look well dressed You will find that you spend a little more money at the beginning than it you just bought a hasty dress here and a hasty hat there, but in the long run you will spend much less. Naturally the coat, if of some quiet color like brown, blue, black or dark green, will go with a great many cther clothes. But avold bright red because becoming as it is, it means that you must buy too many extra things to gc with it. If you must use a vivid red (and it is a gay and winning color), use it for your bathrobe or a sport skirt and sweater. Above all. don't buy a blue coat and a black dress and a green hat. It may take you a year to get your clothes re- duced to one or two colors. But always bear it in mind, when you're buying. By Thornton W. Burgess. |that I didn’t scare Jumper,” she re- torted. “He saw Terror the Goshawk alight in that tree over there and de- cided to leave these parts in a hurry. I took the only chance I would have had and missed him, but that is no more than you did yourself. And don't try to fool yourself into thinking that you would have had any other chance.

If you had kept out of |it T would have had him." Mrs. Reddy grinned. It was a most provoking grin. “Just look at Jumper's tracks in the snow,” said she. “Do you mean to tell me that he wandered all around you just out of your reach and didn’t know you were there! That | fellow was just having fun with you. I watched him and I had to laugh down inside to see how he was fooling you. And then when I tried to help you say I scared him away. Bah! So they quarreled. It was a silly quarrel as most quarrels are. Suddenly Reddy realized this. He grinned. \-'wru never fill empty stomachs on | cross words,” said he. “You probably were quite right.

Handwriting What It May Reveal. BY MILDRED MOCKABEE. o f e ! fi//m% HIS “sample” gives an immediate impression of a very foreeful personality. The writer seems | an_interesting type who has a H definite aim in life which she is confident of reaching. She probably is the kind of person who has many and varied interests, yet always has time for another if it is worthwhile and inter- esting. Her friends, perhaps, marvel that she can accomplish so much, but this is undoubtedly because of her great amount of vitality and nerve energy She would seem to Be an efficient di- rector of any type of club or organiza- tion work. Without doubt she could be depended upon to give her best efforts to any cause she might undertake to work for. Her associates would find her a capable, pleasant worker, willing to do even more than her share. Unquestionably she should co-ordinate her energies in some endeavor that would enable her to express her own ideas and originality. She seems to have the necessary qualifications for a successful novelist. Her clear manner of thinking and apparent uniqueness of expression_would be of great value to her in such work. If she felt that writing was not her true forte, she might find interest and success in teaching. Seemingly she would be better fitted for college work than dealing with little children. People would probably thoroughly en- joy visiting her home. They would be sure of a royal welcome and interesting, stimulating companions. She apparent- ly is one of the fortunates who find en- tertaining no effort. It would appear to be very easy for her gracefully to di- rect either large or small groups in en- joyable activity.
