I've got to wear moonlights at a banquet tonight. ‘What the devil is this anyway? A practical joke? If so, your sense of humor is atrophying.

That is why a woman wishes to be known as having a different odor in her face powder or rouge.

Your skin is the overcoat of your body. It fits you better than any coat you ever had, particularly the part of it that shows on your face, If any pimples, blotches, blemishes or scales appear on its smooth, vel- vety surface it shows to your dis- comfort and disadvantage and some- times disgrace. i The skin of the face¥irrors your character, to an extent little thought of by most people, Beauty is only skin de2p, is a common expression, 1t is not true. Beauty reaches far down into vour life and character, to the depths of the real foundation, simple health and hygiene, Perhaps this is not strictly medical, but it is true. A caterpillar, in the course of a month, will eat 6000 times its own weight in food. Some people try hard to emulate the caterpillar and fthen wonder why they are not healthy and beautiful. The face is subject to such dis- orders as erythema, rosacea, eczema, lupus-erythematous and maglignant growths of many kinds. Do not ag- gravate your sensitive skin by arti- ficial adornments. A little cold cream, or sensible wash for the face may be necessary at times, for facial massage which is always helpful. Simple foods, such as wheat, green vegetables, milk and be eaten. Pure air with proper exercise prometes the functions of the skin and keeps the blood stream in a nourishing condl- tion. bran or In the Sick Room Where a patient has to be moved from one bed to another, have the bed well aired and warmed a little even in summer, hixszhonr Larmses that they have planned for you. mother prides herself on from the Mayflower, and if from Puritan stock mecans life Jack's descent descent centered, then 1 am glad came over in the steerage dad Jack has been awfully angry at course, she lays if she only| it all to me, although riot act to her. .She is very ny SISTER MARY GOOD THINGS TO PUT IN THE SCROOL LUNCH BOX Perhaps you must pack a school lunch box every day but Saturday and Sunday, and the problem of what to put in it looms large, In the first pl the food must be nourishing and easlly digested, The girl or boy is still growing and using every ounce of energy in his or her young hody whether In grade or a high school senlor, And In the second place the box must be neatly and attractively packed, No matter how good the sandwiches really are, If they are crushed or soaked, more than likely they will remain in the box until after school and then find a resting place by the roadside on the way home, If there is a school cafeteria to pro- vide hot soup or cocoa, A thermos bottle need not be Included in the cquipment, But if the whole lunch- eon must be carried from home some- thing hot is most essential, A hot soup, simple sandwiches and frult will do more good than all the ple and cake in the world, As 1 Swrets It as jelly sandwich sometimes is made to take the place of cake it will sfy the\youth{ul sweet tooth and at the same time provide some fruit, Simple sponge cake or graham cook- fes with raisins are harmiess sweets, Do you remember how you bolted your luncheon when you were school nage and then indulged in violent ex- ercise for an hour, and after that used your brain just as violently? All this takes nourishiug food and plenty of It, because there must be an allowance for growth. A hearty, unhurried breakfast should start the day for every child, and a simple wholesome luncheon ehould be planned and packed for noon time.

Mix carrots, meat, salt and pepper and lemon juice and make moist with salad dressing. Spread thin slices of whole wheat bread with butter, put a lettuce leaf qn each slice of bread and spread with filling.

The strange boys gathered about Johnnie Green and Cuffy Bear. ““Are they going to give you a ticket just for leadin' him?” one of them asked Johnnle, polnting at Cuffy Bear, “I belong to the show,"” Johnnie ex- plained proudly. ‘“This is my bear. Sit up, Cufty! Now, beg!" ¢ | Cuffy Bear obeyed promptly, re-| celving a peanut for his reward. | “Lemme lead him,” begged the hoy’ who had spoken to Johnnie. *I would," said Johnnie, ‘but I das- sent, He doesn’'t know you." “Aw-—lemme take him just for a minute! You needn’t gimme a ticket.” Johnnie shook his head. “I'll give you five cents!" cried the strange boy. JOHNNIE o tve CIRCUS and his CUFFY BEAR ~ ~ By ARTHUR SCOTT BAILEY ‘humpbacked peanuts here! Only five a bag! Git a square meal for a nick- el!" The big top had been up for some time when a hatchet-faced, wiry man began to drone this invitation. He was a peanut butcher. Aimost imediately he sold a dozen bags of peanuts to a mob of howling, jostling youngsters. g Johnnie Green had spent an hour or more, after breakfast, in the neigh- borhood of Cuffy Bear's cage. He was expecting callers—his friends of the early morning. And he did not want to miss them when they came with peanuts for Cuffy—and he hoped for himself too. Cuffy's cage now stood under the menagerie tent. And Johnnie went to the entrance and watched and wait- ed just outside. At last he saw the boys coming.
