(■oi'tht* siiiil, and so is v good
complexion.
If you want to make a success
of beautifying, persist in It until
the results are satisfactory, but
do not take your whole family
into your confidence by telling
them at once what you are going
to accomplish. Small brother is
likely to say, "Gee, but your neck
is scranny, and all that dope you
rub on it isn't any good," and lit
tle sister, with equal candor,
while entertaining your "best
friend"' who is awaiting the final
touches to Jour toilet—which,
alas, you may have delayed until
the last moment —is quite liable
to tell him just how you beautify.
For small sister, no matter how
young, always takes an eager in
terest in each detail and usually
explains all about it at the least
opportune moment.
Of course, every one acknowl
edges in this enlightened day that
all things are fair in producing
an excellent complexion, but al-
ways remember that brothers,
friends and husbands enjoy the
finished product, and not the
process.
I know a man who discharged
an employe because ho detected
h<»r using a powder pad down be
hind the counter —"didn't ap
prove of powder." The woman
who is "just right" In his eyes
has—well, to say the least—an
artistically applied complexion
and he willingly would take the
most sacred oath that she never
uses powder nor does a single
thing to beautify. She is a fas
cinating widow, and, knowing his
little weakness in this regard,
never will offend his taste by ap
plying powder to her nose in his
presence. And they will live hap
py ever after.
I am not advising deceit; but
creams, etc., are not things to be
applied in public. When we by
common sense methods have im
proved our personal appearances,
and all our family and friends are
remarking, "How you hay« im
proved." then is not the time to
brag about what you have accom
plished.
JUST OXK LAST WORD—We
must beautify, but let's do it in

Things About Grapes
GRAPES.
ANNED grapes
give excellent
flavor, the juice
resulting after
standing sonve
weeks being, if
properly made,
like a sweet
wine. Wash and
cut the grapes
from the
bunches leaving
a bit of stem on
each. Make a
sirup with a quart of water to
each pound of sugar. Place the
fruit in heated jars in an outer
vessel of cold water and let them
heat gradually. Fill nearly full
with the sirup and Itet cook 10
minutes. Add more sirup and seal
immediately.
White grapes or , seedless
grapes are very delicate prepared
this way or in grape juice.
GRAPE CATSUP.
For this use wild grapes, press

Cynthia Grey's Answers
ONE OF THE "THICKS"
Dear Miss Grey: The last buy I went with was very ungen
tlemanly when out walking at night. 1 told him tliat we could
be friends on one condition only, and that was for him to keep
his distance and be careful what lie said. At first he laughed
and said I wasn't a sport, then turned and left me to go the rest
of the way home alone. > Me hasn't spoken to me since, and us
I lore him dearly should I apologize? What do you think of
bun? CONSTANCE.
A.—Don't spoil his lesson by'apologizing. What on earth would
you apologize for —because you resented an insult? That little taunt
"you're not a good sport," is used by men and boys who can't resist
th^ dare implied when it is used on them, and they think girls can
be influenced in the same way. It is one of their little "stock in
trades," to make a girl do as they want.
You do not love him; but are piqued because he ignored you—
and that is another little trick they use because they know that nine
out of ten women are fools enough to blame themselves when they
are not at fault. He is not worthy a thought.
A CASK WHEKE THK Al>OlTi:i> (HIM) WAS TOLD
Childless Woman: This may help you a little more. I
found I hi' iliiuulilii' of a friend I ln««l known for years was a fos
(•r < liild. When she confided in mo 1 asked if tin- child knew.
She said "yes," she dared not run the risk of not te)ling her.
When she was about five years old, she told her that (Jod had
taken away her first mother and given her t<> them so they wore
really and truly her father and mother,, and loved her just as
well as if she had been given to them first. The child knew and
understood and they kept the secret between them. So far as I
know, no on here knows it besides myself. I cannot see why it
should turn a child from her foster pun'iits when not told; but
it does. It seems that it would make them love them more
when without being born to them they had loved and cared
for them ns if they had been.
Adopt your child —do not stop at one—teach them to call
you mother and to feel that you are mother, even if they have
had another before. 1 have known of couples who have adopt
ed three and even four children all at once and never regretted
it. After a family of two or three children are left alone in the
world, mother gone, t\ W y cling to one another, and it is pitiful
to tear them apart. Thank CJod! there are hearts true enough
and big enough to gather under the mother wing the whole of
such n brood.
YOURS FOR THE LITTLE ONES.
"THIS IS NOT KID STUFF"
Dear Miss Grey: lam a young niiin of 17 years of Jige.
There is a girl in (his town I like very much, and I have known
her for three years. I Hke tills girl and I think we could get
along together as I am making $In a mouth and working every
day and get my hoard and room, which is equal to S<>.~». This is
not kid stuff, because I have met lots of other Rirls and been
with lots of others; but never met one I Hke better than this
one. She Is one year younger tliiui I, but can do anything an
older lady can. 1 would like your advice and would it be wrong
If I talk to other girls nnd she would talk to other hoys?
E. V. I>.
A.—lf the $40 salary with room and board will continue after
you are married you might be able to start nicely; but as both are
young for such responsibility, I would advise that you wait awhile
and put in the time getting ready.
Get it out of your head once for all that there is the least harm
in either you or the girl talking to the opposite sex, if your motives
are good. Neither owns the other, and never will—even though
married. This statement does not relieve people of their obligations
to one another; but makes them more truthful and trustworthy.
■ - THE BRUTE AND THE BABY.
Dear Miss Greylam a young man of twenty-two and
have been paying attention to a young widow a little older than
myself. I would like to marry her only she has a young child.
Do you suppose that after our marriage I could overcome this
small barrier to our happiness? J. P. K. 3.
A. —God pity the woman who marries such a brute as you. If
you haven't feeling enough to allow the woman you prefer to love
to keep her baby, or brains enough to provide for three, you would
better never marry. You are either a brute; or such a baby your
self, that the spark of fatherhood has not developed. In either
case she is better without you.
JOHN SMITH'S ■XFHUOICE FROM NOT KNOWING.
Dear Miss Grey—l would be pleased to help a "Childless
Woman" with her problem.
My mother married Mr. John Smith, Mr. Smith died two
months before I was bom. A year Inter mother married Mr.
O . No one ever had a better mother than I or a stop
father better than Mr. C—, but I was never adopted.
For reasons all her own, my mother never told me of my
father. Things went happily for 20 .veal's, until Mr. C—, died
and the estate was probated, theu I was given my own name,
"John Smith," Jr. Now in the meant line, I hud joined a lodge
under the name of C—, all my school mates knew me as C—.
Tho change called for many embarrassing explanations,
and the non-adoption left me out of the estate which was quite
valuable. I am thankful, however, to |H»sses« a perfect phy
sique. I would adopt the child, and at a reasonable age, tell
it the truth; unless it is of questionable parentage. Truly,
JOHN SMITH.
SHR WAS PURE TIM, THEX,
Dear Miss Grejr—l am oiikiw.il to n girl of 23, but what
I wish to ask you is if It is right for me to marry her for she
had a sweetheart that deceived her. What I mean hy this, is
that this girl was pure before she met that sweetheart. I am
a young man of 23. Please advise me. M. J.
A.—lf the girl has been living straight since that experience
It should not weigh against her. Even if your own life has been
free from similar mistakes, you cannot say what you might have
done under different conditions.
But above all, do not marry the girl if you hold it against her
to the least degree in your mind.
WE ARE NOT GOING "STEADY."
Dear Miss Grey—We are not going steady with any boy.
Is it proper for us to come home from places we go, when we
are always in the same crowd, with any one of the boys? Also,
is It proper for us to receive small gifts from any of them? We
have more fun among Uicm when we don't exactly go with any
of them, and we are sure the rest of tho girls do.
WE'KK GIRLS.
A. —There la more fun going with the boys as "chums" and not
as mortgaged property. ' ■. <■
If these "crowds" are neighborhood affairs there Is no harm
In attending them unescorted, and coming home with one of the
boys. But girls and boys should ho careful not to form the habit
of running around everywhere and! anywhere at night.
. . The gifts must be very small If a girl does not want to feel
under obligation. '-.' ".■".■;\t£,i '
THE HIGH SOH<k>4 GIRTi AT HOME. \ .
Dear Miss Greylt wontdiiolp me If yon would tell me
how much I ought to expect inyl'l'H year old girl to do and keep
up her high school work. - The?c"are four in our family and I
am not at all well at present nnil need all the help I can got
and think girls should do more than they do as a rule. Thank-
Ing yon before hand. y. • WEARY.
A.—The amount of work a high school girl can :do at home,
and keep up her studies, depends 'somewhat on the distance she goes
to school and the course she Is taking. Here are a few suggestions:
. Have her do. definite tasks—tGe same work every day, and at
a stated time. Just as in the JbusJuess world she will learn to do
It well in less time the oftener. does it. ,' ■
She should be able to do an JinurV. work in the morning and
two hours in the afternoon and, evening. c If she is to work one hour
after dinner in the evening, you should be careful to have that meal
promptly on time. - ' . :■ •"■/■ j-j, .•:~ -■ . . V ,■ 'r -: "» '■■■">■'.
