Here, Girls, Is a Almost Twice as Much what's th and helped many & limited goal newly time in their lives? 1s absurd for the society girl or ‘young business girl to buy silk pexines sundaes, veils, bonbons and i the little things she wants on the spur of the moment just from dad's Allowance or her own weekly pay en- Yelope. It simply can't be done, you know. She may buy the stockings, the frappe and select a veil all in one @ay, but at the end of the week she fg bound to be short of funds, and either have to pinch on her lunches jor borrow from her best girl chum, But there is a way to keep sweet young things out of places like these. There is a budget systetn. Not a ‘horrid printed affair with rows of fig- ures that make headaches, but a nice B)“box system,” made from old candy Doesn't that sound fascinat- t) Now, listen! Go up to the attic or down in the lar, or in some old cupboard where ndy boxes are stored away and elect six or seven of them, Then @ a slit two or three inches long in them the way they did in wooden er eggs when they gave them out in your Sunday School days. Now label the boxes ‘Hosiery,’* "Gteves,"" Veils," “"Cosmetics,"” “Sodas and Candy,"’ ‘‘Lingerie,"’ Perfume’ or any of the things your ‘young head desires to buy from that lowance or pay envelope. You might as well realize you can't fhave all these things at once. Any- way, t's lots more fun to set these boxes up in a row all labelled and Wigaping tor the coins which are to Peventually bring you the desired ar- ticles (for, of course, you know what Hthose ‘‘slits" in the boxes mean.) hey mean that each day you may ip @ quarter, a dime or some coin nto the box which bears the label of he thing you are next going to buy. On payday there is a good chance to slip a dollar bill into some of these Boxes. But it is surprising how small ‘coins sum up and what one may buy when one looks into these budget Wyo. It cives a young girl inspira- bd just to sit here before the boxes and think. | First she is going to buy lavender stockings to match her periwinkle tweed suit, then she thinks cream col- ored ones would harmonize better and fperhaps the next morning she will decide upon gray ones Instead, Surely by the time the box is ready with the money she will know just what she Bwants and it's a whole lot better than bps in a hurry and then having to in line to exchange them or else just ‘wear ‘em anyway."" Of course the debutante and the young business girl do not have to Hjimit these marked boxes to just the IWttle personal things one buys with i*pin money.” A really ambitious girl will have other boxes marked “Dresses,” “Hats” and even “Fur Coats.” By the way, the summer 1s an excellent time to start right in Then, too, many a girl could start “Vacation Box” which, if she began right now, might enable her to go to @ much better summering place if she gaved until the latter part of July Sor August. ‘he very young feminine budgeteer its sums of money into these boxes Ned This and That eyery week, fact every evening if she can spare tew pieces of coin, Meanwhile Ishe ys her changeable taffeta negligee plans seven different ways to e that new suminer dance frock Bo go tg the candy-box budget sys- gurls.

A short time afterward my sister and I went to a dance and as luck would have it we encountered some of the boys who had been to my party, When time for going home came they asked if might take us home in their car, I am sorry to say we had to decline this offer because my father made us promise we would never go they in a car with any young men even if { he knew them. Of course he did know the young men in this case. Now, Miss Vincent, I think this is an absurd rule, since I am a business girl over twenty. Of course we know the tragedy of automobiles, but don't you think my father is carrying things too far?

There are good habits and bad habits on the road to beauty and I want to call your attention to sev~ eral, because the dally repetition of some of these bad habits is the main thing that detracts from your beauty.

PREACHES fs | 7 yOuR FATHER WOULD HAVE GIVEN ANY THING FOR. ONE OF THOSE Mar Beauty become victims to its slavery; the habit clinging so tenaciously to many of you that only the intelligent knowl~ edge of the damage it can do to your appearance will check it. In many cases the biting of the nails can be traced to lack of proper nourishment in the diet. This should then be the first consideration. Since this bad habit is also indicative of lack of self-control, the toning up of the nerves is of prime importance. Again and again you hear the remar! “I simply can’t stop biting my nails." Just forget about the nails for a while and engage in a good rub down after you have allowed the cold shower to play up and down your spine for a few seconds and take a good brisk walk for at least one hour in the sun- shine, get suffictent sleep and lo! and ».,, behold! the nail biting habit will have vanished, When the nails are properly mani- cured there is far: less tendency to bite them. Often they are brittle and in removing a piece of cracked nail with the teeth, the habit of biting the nails is formed. To cure this apply vasel- iné to the finger tips as often as con- venient, especially overnight. Avoid digging any sharp pointed Instrument under the nil or at the base of the nail, When you stop to consider that it takes five months for a new thumb nail to grow you can readily see that if care is not used in lossening the cuticle at the base of the nail you are lable to injure the growth of the. nall at the base and it will he five months before that nail recovers completely from the injury. Nail biting also spoils the contour of the mouth and gives the impression that you lack control. Another point to consider is that it 1s almost im Possible to keep the hands absolutely sanitary Overcome this habit at once. It ean be done by toning the system and using a little self-control. Remember you do not look your best while you are biting your nails and biting them keeps your mouth and hands from looking their best at all times, So manicure them carefully and mix something bitter with the polishing powder for a day or two and you will find that you have overcome at least one habit that has interfered with your beauty, But biting nals ts not the only little fault that needs atten tion, Watch yourself and seo if t) one we discuss next Ume is applicable to you, A CLEAR CONSCIENCE ON SUNDAY The Jarr Family By Roy L.

If you have the space for a garden, why not give each of the ohildren-a small plot to plant and care for themselves? Lat them raise some salable produos and keep the proceeds as thelr own. Ono little fellow up in the Bronx raised several bushels of tomatoes on a sur- prisingly small plot and realised sev- eral dollars out of the enterprise, and during /vacation it was great sport to pull the weeds, tle up the vines and water the garden. A little girl raised string beans with equally successful results. Friends and neighbors will gladly patronize the little truck gar- dener, especially since they secure a fresh product by, the act. When a child reaches the end of its first year it should be taught to drink from a cup and @ bottle should never be given to a child after it is fifteen months old excepting for the 10 P. M. feeding. As this feeding usually is discontinued after the eighteenth month the bottle should then be entirely discarded, This will prevent later distressing sessions with a child who has formed the ‘‘bottle habit."” If you must depend upon the frult stands for your supplies it is advis- able not to give children under five years raw fruits to eat. When you get into the country, where fruit ts absolutely fresh, this may be given at meal time in place of dessert. But in the city the wise mother will give her child of that age only cooked fruit and the julees of fresh fruit. Young children should not be given cherries nor any berries, pineapple or plums, Apples and bananas must be thoroughly ripe and should be given tn smal! quantities and eaten slowly. The pulp of oranges and grapefruit are not good for children.

Moro tifliti/a century ago New York girls used to burry up and down that same way—also on their way to bus- iness. Their business was doing the family wash in the stream which 11 those days cut through the Klaave: Waytle, or pasture of clover, belong ing to the farm of Jan Jansen Damen and wound around the base of Golden Hill in a clear blue rivulet between bigh bluffs. But in those days Malden Lane used to be called “Virgin's Path,” having taken its name from the path way beaten solid by the patter of myriads of wooden slippers, Jn snowy linen caps and neckerchiefs these ruddy-cheeked Dutch girls used to scurry along, carrying great bas kets of homeapun linens for their weekly dip. All of which may sound Iike a very humdrum life to the maidens who trip along the Maiden Lane of to-da: But romance followed on the seven- yard akirta of that day, suet as surely to-day, because novelists, writing of those long ago times, hint of a cer- tain Gil where wild flowers grew along the banks of the stream, where, unable to call a tax!, after a long day's work, one might lay down one's baaket of linens, and {f one were good to look upon, get a ride home in a cart. The Housewife’s Scrapbook should be covked in a small amount of water and the saucepan should be covered in order to retain the flavor. On the contrary, strong vegetables should be well cov- ered with water and cooked in an un- covered vessel to allow the steam to carry off the excessive flavor. Vrinouta be with a weak flavor When making mayonnaise during the warm weather use half raw yolks and half yolks of hard boiled eggs. This will minimize the danger of separation. A prominent chef asserts that one great aource of trouble to the cook in making mayonnaise is the use of tov ittle exg yolk and {mproper salting He says salt has a wonderful chen) cal effect on ofl and espectally on eas yolk, and he advises to use too mica rather than too little of either,
