She Deals a Death
Blow to the Beauty
Illusions Held Out
by Skin Foods,
Cold C r e am s,

and All the Other
"Pink, White and
Red Stuff."
By Sarah Addington.
DR. HARVEY WILEY'S right hand
man is a merry, atanch, brown
eyed person who Is known
?around Washington as Anne, though
strangers call her Miss Pierce, I be?
lieve.
"Anne Pierce?" they say. "Yes, she's
the right bower and the joker In Dr.
Wiley's office. Doctor doesn't do any?
thing without asking Anne."
She has been the pure food cham?
pion's chief aid for fifteen years, too,
twelve of those years in government
service, the last three with "Good
Housekeeping." Miss Pierce tests the
market products that go to make up
the "tested and found true" articles of
the Good Housekeeping Institute; she
answers all the letters of inquiry that
are written to Dr. Wiley's department;
-he thinks and plans and talks with
Dr. Wiley about all the things that
lfter they boost or discourage.
Anne Pierce, besides having brown
eyes, has red cheeks, and that may be
the reason she feels so strongly about
cosmetics. But of course that reason is
only complementary to the real reason
?which is that she knows whit she is
talking about. For cosmetics she de?
scribes as the great American farce,
and, having a laboratory and science
beck of her, she is unafraid to deal
this death blow to beauty creams and
eu** tards.
"It's positively pitiful, this cosmetic
business," she said, in all the glory of
her own perfect complexion, which, as
I say, makes one hear her words with
a necessary grain of salt ; "women rush?
ing around buying pink etuff and white
stuff and red stuff for their cheeks and
their brows and their lips, paying $2
for something that isn't worth two
cents to them and probably cost very
little more than that.
"Cold cream, you know, has very lit
tl-j value except for the massage that
comes with it. And think how much it
costs, 75 cents and $1 for a small jar!
Plain old theatrical cold cream at 30 or
35 cents a pound would be just as good,
though of course it doesn't come with
violets all over the lid and a sweet
smell. But there is a sort of theatrical
cold cream that has a nice, cool, geran

pities most the man who pays for the cosmetics on
his wile's dressing table.
ium odor that even the most fastidious
would enjoy.
Skin Food Never Wae.
< "I said the massage wa* the only
value, but there is, too, the softening
of the outer skin. But feeding the
skin ? Nonsense. There'? no such
thing. Skin food can no more be ap?
plied externally than can muscle food
or nerve food. Theie ?vas a court de
! cisi?n on that once and the court de
I clared that a claim to feed the skin
externally was a false claim and that
the firm was guilty of fraudulent rep?
resentation.
"Now, it may be all right to u?e pink
dyed ?tuff to become beautiful, but a

or ?weep the house with the window?
open. Beauty may be ?kin deep, but
?kin depend? upon what's under it, not
what's outside of it."
"What about the cold cream that
make? hair grow'" I asked in a ?tage
whisper, mindful of the "greaseless"
advertisements that il ure the Ameri?
can woman against unwelcome mu?
I tathios and chop whisker?.
Mis? Pierce threw back her head and
laughed.
"My dear, no cold cream make? hair
grow," she ?aid, "to of course the ad?
vertisement that proclaims its virtue
! in that respect tells the shining truth.
j The massage may stimulate hair roots
1 a bit, but as for the cream acting a? an
j inducement to the growth of hair,
that'? a fallacy. But how the cold
1 creamer? do cash in on it! I wonder
I w-hy milk dealers don't advertise thn
their products doesn't make hair grow
Milk doesn't, you know."
The summer girl with her crop o
freckles came in next for her attention
Freckles Off, but Skin with It.
"Yes, freckle cream does take of
freckles," admitted Miss Pierce, "bu
do you know why? Because ammon
t iated mercury, which is what freckl?
lotion is made of, is fine for taking off
the outer skin layer, and with it off
come the freckles. So that if a lady
doesn't mind peeling herself every so
! often ehe may with very good con
| science use Freckle-Off, or whatever
her favorite brand may be. But no?
body would ever agree that peeling is
harmless.
"Cold creams are divided into two
clarses, the vanishing cream, which has
i glycerin, as its base, and cleansing
cream, which is always fundamentally
, vaseline. And all the devices and all
the disguises in trje world cannot alter
. the value of those two good homely
remedies."
"Doesn't a greasy cold cream make a
naturally oily complexion more so?" I
asked.
"No. Oil in the skin is secreted by
an oil gland into an oil duct for the
purpose of keeping the skin from
cracking and breaking. If there is too
much oil it is because the oil glands
are abnormal, but rubbing oil in from
, the outside is not going to affect the
output of oil by the glands.
Money Massaged Away.
"Oh, it's mostly humbug, you sea,
and it all comes down to what I said
before, that cold cream is merely a
I vehicle for massage. Ill tell you the
I man I pity most in this world is the
i man who works several good hard
hours for a dollar or two and then sees
it the next day on his wife's dressing
table in a little white jar, or worse
still, on her cheeks in little round pink
j spots."
Miss Pieree's picture was wanted.
She was holding out strong against
: pleas and arguments until Dr. Wiley
from the inner office called out;
"Oh. go on, Anne, let 'em have your
picture. You're a good lookin' girl."
And again we fell that any woman
naturally endowed with a complexion,
; tvcn with science and a laboratory,
i doesn't quite appreciate the strivings
I and strainings, the hopes and dreams,
the cravings and longings, of her less
fortunate sister, she of the pallid
cheek, of the shiny nose, of the
i wrinkled brow.

Your Child Should Know Minutes MaKe Hours
" . . . taught to look at
the watch from time to
time.
By SIDONIE MATZNFR (.I.IKNBF.RG.
AS I was liaving the house to
keep a dinner engagement a
neighbor with her little boy
nm- along, the mother greatly agitat
-,| the child only slightly ?er
j turbed.
The mother wa? ?peaking. "Now
\ you'll have to go to bed without sup?
per, as you did last night. I will not
, have you coming home so late.
And the boy protested: "I didn't
j know it wa? so lute. I meant to come
home early."
The next day, when I met my neigh?
bor in a calmer mood, she felt that she
had to explain the -?cene of the Dre
vious evening. She always leti her
children go out unattended; she ex
leet*. them to learn how to take care
of themselves. And she punishes them
if they come home late; she expects
them thus to learn to know time and
the value of time.
There is no doubt that in the course
of months or of years those children
will learn to come home betimes and
to keep engagements through the
method pursued by their mother. But
1 wondered whether the same results
could not be attained without the irri?
tations and ill-feeling that this method
seemed to bring forth. The method of
rewards and punishments is the most
ancient one, and has produced valua?
ble results. But it is in many ways
crude as well as ancient, and it is cer?
tainly not universally the best.
Why Not a Watch?
I asked the mother whether the child
had a watch or any other means of
knowing the time. "No," she said; "he
is too careless to have a watch. If
he had one I'm sure he would forget
to wind it or he would get it out of
order in a week."
"Is it fair," 1 asked her, "to expect
the child to know what time it is when
he has no means of finding out? I
wonder how many adults; with all their
experience, would know that it was
time to stop when in the midst of some
interesting pastime, if they had no out- '
ward sign or warning?"
It would ?eem that the burden of
responsibility for supplying the infor?
mation or the mean? for getting It in
a matter of this kind should be as?
sumed altogether by the parent.
Where there i? no public clock in the
vicinity of the children's play, ar?
rangements should be made for in?
forming them of the psssage of time.
We should see to it that at least one
of the children in the group has a
watch, for children that Bre old enough
to play without supervision are old
enough to learn how to care for a
watch, as well as how to read the time.
They can also be taught to look at the
watrh from time to time, until they
have learned to feel about how much
play they can accomplish in an hour
or in half an hour. Watches that are
sufficiently reliable for all ordinary
purpose? are cheap enou?h nowadays,
?o that every child should have the ad
tage of owning one.
Acquiring 'Time Sense."
For the watch can be made a useful *
instrument in the education of the |
child. As eoon as he is able to read
time he can become his own time?
keeper, although some children learn
this much more easily than others.
Providing some positive means for,
keeping track of the passing minute?
is a much more satisfactory way of ?
teaching the child than letting hin'
flounder about and then punishing him
for his blunders. It is hard to imagine
the child having any feeling except
that of galling injustice, on being de?
prived of his supper for doing the
most natural thing in the world that
is, continuing to play so long as there
is any one to play with. It is very
likely that with most children the im?
position of a penalty in a case of this
kind will have practically no value
toward the acquisition of a "time
sense," since children generally look
upon penalties in the light of retribu?
tion for disobedience, or for infraction
of laws, but seldom connect them spe?
cifically with their shortcomings lead?
ing to the misconduct. To the analyti?
cal adult mind the purpose sugge.-t.
the connection, but to the child's mind
tho connection is absent.
Value of Regular Daily Programme.
We are not all equally endowe'd with
tho "time sense," and in some persons
it is conspicuously lacking. But a
great deal can be done to cultivate if
in the home. The most important ele?
ment in this training is a regular daily '
programme, in which as much as pos
sibls of the routine finds a fixed point.
Through this all the members of the
household should come to a realization
of the responsibility of each to ob?
serve the programme so far as it has

"Waiting and losing time
mean nothing to the child."
to do with the common activities of
the family. Being late should come
to mean an infringement upon the ,
time of others. We will make allow?
ances for delays, but we ghould not be
made to wait unnecessarily. This is
the lesson that the child should learn
first of all in the matter of time and
appointments.
But waiting and "losing time" mean
nothing to the child until he ha?
learned to appreciate time for himself.
In this the watch as a marker of
time unit? is of great value. We ap- ',
prec?ate time as the substance of life.
To the child it mei.ns the enjoyment
of activities and sensations that are
marked, not only b>?8j|ntensity but also
by duration. To enjoy the games and
the reading and the dreaming of

measure the duration of these things,.
by noting from time to time the pass?
ing of an hour or two, is to learn
the value of minutes in terms of how
much life the minutes can yield

the child'* attention to the fact that

But they will not teach him to eval?

must have guidance and assistance of
a positiva kind.
FOUR SONS AT THE FRONT,
MOTHER TO SEND HER LAST
After Seeing Her Boys in England, Woman of Sixty-,
Survivor of Lusitania, Will Go to Canada
to Repeat Her "Farewell."
On the Cunard liner Orduna, which
arrived yesterday from Liverpool, came
a Canadian woman who was proclaimed
by passengers and crew as a model
of fortitude and courage for all Eng?
lish and Canadian mothers.
She is Mrs. Phoebe Amory, of Tor?
onto. She looks younger than her
uixty years, and was exceedingly cheer
i ful, notwithstanding the troub>s that
have been heaped upon her within the
last year.
Her pluck and optimism was known
in England before she embarked on
; the Orduna. Although she tried to
j keep her story to herself, it became
| known and she rnas made much of bjr
; travellers and crew.
Mrs. Amory has five sons -that is, she
\ hopes she has five sons - for four of
| them went out on the battlefront in
. France three weeks ago. She hopes
they are alive and will come back to
? her victorious at the end of the war.
i At her home in Toronto is one son
' who has not yet joined the Canadian
! troops. He is merely awaiting his
| mother's return. When she is back
again in Toronto he will leave her
t alone and join his four brothers at the
, front. Does she regret it? Not Mrs.
! Amory.
"I think as much of my sons as any
' mother could,' she said, "but I am
; proud of their valor and patriotism.
We all love one another, but we love
our country best? of all."
Early in the campaign, when Canada
was mobilizing, four sons of Mrs.
Amory offered their services to the i
British government. After they ha?t
gone the lonely mother began to think,
of them, and of her own mother, a
widow of Lieutenant William Sledge-.
formerly of the British navy.
Suddenly ?he packed a few belong*
ing? and booked passage on the <''jn?
ard liner Lusitania, and was thrown
into the ?ea when that vessel wen!
down off the Old Head of Kinsale on
the Irish Coast on May 7.
She held a life preserver in he?
hand at the time and was hauled along?
side a lifeboat by a man who helped
her put on the belt. She was taken
ashore by a trawler and after assist?
ing the survivors started for London
to find her mother. A few days aftef
her arrival in England she found that
her mother had died a d.'av or two
before the Lusitanir was torpedoed.
The British Wai <Mrke heard of
Mrs. Amory's predicament and she waa
sent for by one of the secretaries.
"I have heard your story," he ?aid
to her, "and my chief has directed that
your three ?on? now in France and on?
at the Salisbury training camp be sent
for. You will have a day or two to
spend with them."
The secretary lived up to his prom?
ise. It took some time to accomplish
it, but the great machinery of the War
Office was working for Mrs. Amorv and
her visit to England was not entirely
in vain.
Before ?he left Liverpool Mrs. Amory
learned that three of her nephews nad
been killed in the righting at the Oar
danelles. Two died before Gallipoli
and one who wa? wounded there died
at Malta.
Burdened with her sorrows. Mrs.
Amory found time to ?peak in the
streets of London and exhorted thous?
ands of women to urge their ablebod
ied son? and brothers to go out in de?
fence of their country.
SUFFRAGISTS ENROL

Representative Promises to Vote
for Susan B. Anthony
Amendment.
Two thousand men and women heard
the Socialist Representative Meyer
London from the steps of his home,
273 East Broadway, declare last night
that he was an advocate of woman
suffrage and would vote for the pas?
sage of the Susan B. Anthony amend?
ment at the next session of Congress.

Mrs. Dorr asked him to use his best
efforts toward the passage of the Fed?
eral suffrage amendment, and Mrs.
Martin and Mrs. Rosen also emphasized
the importance of advocating votes for
women. Mr. London said he hoped they
would get the ballot to which they were
entitled. Then he came down to his
; stoop and echoed his views to the
crowd.
On the return trip to Rutgers Square,
where 5.000 persons attended a mass
, meeting, the reception from the resi?
d? nts was even more enthusiastic. Hun?
dreds joined the inarch, received suf?
