Unfortunately, how- ever, it is exceedingly difficult, it not impossible, to scparate the one from the other. Freckles are small spots of pig- ment in the upper layers of the skit. Freckles “run” in familics. Those with light skin and red hair appe more susceptible than those darker shade, tions. In those who are susceptible, freckles will develop on even slight exposure to the sun. And yet these same persons canrol tan except on exposure to natural or artificial sun rays. While the sun will quickly bring out freckles, there appear to he other forces that pigmentation of the skin. be en in freckles on parts of the body that ordinarily but little exposed to sunlight. Those embarrassed Dy freckles can avoid them, to a-degrec at least, by protecting themsclves against the ultra-violet rays of the sun. A coat of simple, unmedic: cold am may serve this end. he applications sold for moval of freckles usually accom- plish their purpose (when they do) by destroying upper layers of the skin, down to the pigment level. This destruction usually is ac- complished -by a gentle blistering. The effcets, however, are not per- manent. If left alone, freckles tend to pale and disappear as winter approaches. Some freckles, however, stubbornly persist even through the winter. Tomorrow—The B. C. G.

Written for New Britain Herald Closets used to be proper places only for family skeletons; and wer. decorated accordingly. Now, withy modern ideas of com- fort and onvenience, closets not only ‘“interiors” as any room. Perhaps the cleverest idea is con- trast—you take the minor colors in the bedroom scheme and make |them the dominent colors of the closet. Or, if the bedroom walis have figured paper, the closet walls have plain paper or paint. With green bedroom walls, closet | walls may be set off in vellow, la- | vender, or peach; with a yellow or ivory scheme in the room, any pa; | tel color will go well in the closet. |And wonderfully effective is a |closet done in star-spangled blu. | opening from a pink or rose bed- | room. Paint in closets should loil base so it won't rub off. |are also are but as useful have an There closet papers with a water- proof finish. And the new oilcloths with their real designs, make at- tractive wall covering: The floor, too, may be painfed, preferably in some unusual color. Or equally effective is a light bed- room linoleum in a pastel shade, especially with that hoolked rus surface texture. The fixtures may be built portable. Shoe cabinets, chests of drawers, special | brackets can be every kind of wardrobe. And there are boxes and bags for everything. Especiall}{ handy the bags of “Argentine cloth,” the open weave fabric in which every hole is filled with lacquer. The shelves may be finished with | ruffles, pinking, pleating scallops |and lace.

On the e Visit | from some relative or friend who is {important in the child's life, or when | father is coming home after an un- usual absence, or on the day of a birthday or some other special cele- | bration it is much wiser to let the child stay up than to force him to g0 to bed. ent 1o bed when he is nervous excited over the unusual event, | certainly will not rest, much s of obey occasion of a | Tc he le: upon | Very likely, too, he will feel | resentment at the rigid enforgement of law when all his wishes tell him that this is the tire for an excep- tion. It is this sort of resentment, ac |cumulated from a number of small incidents, that develops a spirit of rebellion which makes a child diffi- cult to manage in the long run. 1t is wise to plan in advance to make up for lost hours of sleep. It the child is to be kept up late in tha evening he should ‘he given an ex- tra long nap in the afternoon, or permitted to slcep late the next day. If we sce to it that he gets his usual amount of rest, he will suffer none of the bad efiects of fatigue that are, after all, the only sensible reason for making him go to bed carly. Children are more appreciative than we realize of reasonableness {and good sense in their clders. Allowing them to stay up late for |&00d cause will help them to accept | with cheerful obedience the ordi- daily bedtime.
