Then a cup of coffee aeems to offer just the- mild stimulant the system craves. Usuallv a little later in the day a glass of milk and a few crackers are very welcome. It is advisable to precede the coffee and toast tor roll) with an orange or grapefruit. Cereal is op tional, many preferring to omit it, while others think no breakfast quite com plete without at least a small dish of it. Another group of persons who should have simple breakfasts are those who cat a hearty dinner at night. A quantity of filling food is not. required, as a rule, or two meals in succession, and so their breakfasts should be light. Where there arc children who go a long distance to school, a hearty break fast starts them off in the day well sat isfied and in bodily contentment. Have you ever realized to what a great ex tent. physical contentment has to do with mental equilibrium? A well nour ished person is not apt to be cranky. Eating either too much or too little spoils digestion, and an uncertain tem per generally results. A too hearty breakfast, when not needed, Is just as dbastrous as one that is too meager. If the man of the house has to hurry off to catch a train taking him to the city for business, a breakfast that is especially easy to digest should be served. The hurry immediately after the meal is not conducive to good di gestion. The meal should be sufficient ly nourishing, but not one that taxes ! the stomach to digest. This is one rca ! son why eggs arc favorites to serve m i any of their numerous ways It is ad visable not to serve them alike two day's in succession. Bacon is a tasty accom paniment. and so little is required to add zest to the meal that it may be served on successive days. The wise housewife watches the needs of her family carefully in this matter of giving the right kind of breakfasts. It is a mistake to follow too closely any fashion, for one time the hearty break fast and another the meager breakfast is in vogue. Remember that a hearty dinner at night Implies a simple break fast in the morning, while dinner in the middle of the day implies a hearty breakfast, but no rule can be abbitrary.

C.; FRIDAY, APRIL 2T. 1928. I SUB ROSA BY MIMI. i The Middle-Aged Sheik. Bunny's letter is rather incoherent, but the problem contained in It is suf ficiently familial to enable one to read between the lines. Her doting family—her charming home. The delightful sophisticated man of the world who's begun to honor her with his attention. Ridiculous stand of the family—narrow-minded attitude. His patience with them, etc. It’s all very tragic and terrible. Be cause, you see, this stupid doting family of Bunny's has actually turned against her charming new sw'ain. There's not a thing in the world the matter with that suitor of hers. He Is wealthy, distinguished and intelligent Bunny feels that he makes all the other boys appear callow and silly. He's been so kind to her —sent her flowers, called up constantly, arranged the most attractive theater and supper pft rtifs, And yet ahe can’t really enjoy her self. Why? Because her ridiculous family is in the background, nagging at her not to stay out late—nagging at her not to see too much of this older man, imploring her to go out with boys of her own age. She’s Just sick of It, she is. And Donald, the dear understanding new friend she’s made, has advised her to take an apartment in town with a girl friend of hers. Her family is up in arms over the suggestion. If she leaves home they will never receive her again, etc. Now' why, Bunny dear, are you so determined to take your old sheik’s ad vice? Why, if you're so keen on Donald’s wisdom and mature understanding, don't you lend a willing ear to your own father? Because he's not a man of the world, you’ll tell me. A man of what world? Donald apparently is a man of the world of night clubs and poker games and race-track meets. What makes you think that the wisdom garnered from such sources is superior to your father's everyday brand of common sense? Simply because old Donald flatters your vanity. Oh, yes he does. When you explain to him that you cant pos sibly stay out on a late party he says gently: “But my dear, you must not let your family overrule you in this way. You're a young woman in intel ligence and understanding. You shouldn't let the narrowness of your parents limit your activities," That sounds pretty good to you. You decide that you've been treated like a baby long enough. And on the top of that decision you plan to move to town where the lights are bright and the re strictions on late parties are non-exist ent. I'm set against these smooth, slick old boys who come breezing into a young girl's life .and succeed In per suading her that she's being treated all wrong. They’re not thoughtful for your good. They’re not actually concerned about whether you’re getting a square deal at home or not. But they would like you to be In town, where they don’t have to take you home at 12. far out into a suburb, where anxious disapproving parents are waiting. It would be much simpler for Donald If you lived in town—lt would save him taxi fares. It would save him the irk some necessity of having to be nice to your parents. And you, dear little dumbell. are go ing to turn your back on those parents of yours, who ask nothing more than your safety and happiness to make them completely happy—you're going to turn them down for a superior old boy who Is too lazy and selfish to endure the in conveniences of suburban courtship. "What a goti." Think it over. If this man were really in love with you, his first move would be to get next to the family. Even the most middle-aged suitors play that card first. The fact that he’s deliberately trying to separate you from your people doesn’t augur well for a beautiful ro mance, - • ~ . » 4» Lemon Filling.

"If it hadn’t been for a small one-ring allow I probably would be the owner today of a flourishing plumbing business in my old home town. I mean by that that my love for the show racket began when I first saw Flo, the beautiful bareback rider, leap from her snow white horse and curtesy to the applause of the custom ers. I followed that circus from town and later became an assistant clown in th- organization. The present-day gorgeous, gigantic, glamorous spectacle attended by the young moderns, while otTering a greater galaxy of stars and more acts, doesn’t compare with the ancient shows. Everybody in those days closed up shop and attended when the circus came to town. "I remember mother would lock the house up tight assistant for fear some of CuowN the circus hang- , U ers-on might break in and lift the family heirlooms. We kids would stay up all night to see .‘j the sleepy caravan drive into town. - M and then the next day solicit jobs, (\ such as carrying \\ V J “$ * water for the ele phants and other animals. Every ■>. circus had its J ' ’’sharps” who laid in wait for the hicks, and “the old army game" sep arated many a conservative townsman from his bank roll. I can hear the blare of the band today as the parade moved down Main street. The bands men were a nondescript-looking outfit dressed in dusty red uniforms in sad need of repair, but to us the Marine Band was a fllork of pikers compared with them. And then when the circus left town it Seemed as if the bottom of everything had suddenly dropped out of the universe. I left with them one day, as 1 have said, and began my career as an actor. Later I went from downing to the so-called legitimate stage, where I have remained, but if it hadn't been for that circus I probably would have inherited my father's plumbing business. I am not sorry.” ** * * Studio life is mysterious and intrigu ing to those who are without the pale, so to speak. The erroneous Impression persists that artists and writers are a gay. careless, irresponsible lot who work only when Inspired. Any sincere plyer of the brush, pen and typewriter will tell you that this is the bunk in chunks. The moving pictures so often portray the folks of the studios as carousing, dissipating ne’er-do-wells. Just the other day a Washington paint er told the writer that it was a long time before he could convince his well meaning friends that his studio was not a hangout for those who had time to kill. Artists must be alert today as much as the business man. and this means that they must work by the clock, and woe to the model who ar rives a minute late. There are excep tions of course, but you do not find these exceptions far above the strata of failures. *# * * Perhaps this should not be told, but we will take a chance. A well known constructor ot piers and docks was in the city a few days ago and related an experience he had in a remote • • V place inhabited PAGING ) mainly by “high- G£ N£WL«S.j h,t,, W, -J-1. f 1 for that Is really s the beginning of Wwi his name.

Having ar rived at a certain hotel notable for Its smartness, he at once proceeded to become friendly with the guests, not, it may be added in a crude or vulgar fashion, for Mr. Me is not that sort of person. The morning after his arrival lie sat at a table occunled by a rather austere gentleman, who was engaged in consuming eggs and bacon. "Good morning," said Mr. Me . affably, as he * sat down. "Grumph!" was the recognition he re ceived. A.t lunch Mr. Me occu pied a table with two strangers. "How do you do." said the amiable Mr. Me . Both strangers looked up, but did not respond to the greeting. In the evening the dining room was crow'ded and Mr. Me found a seat opposite a young gentleman. "Good evening." said Mr. Me . "’Ning," was the abrupt return. Then Mr. Me decided upon action. The first i thing he did was to take the bell cap tain Into his confidence and the fol lowing scheme was hatched: A long official-looking envelope was obtained, on the outside of which was written in bold letters "Major General Me ." It. was arranged that on the following evening a bellhop should go through the dining room paging Gen. Me . That night Mr. Me once again found a table occupied by a man who greeted him wdth a "Grumph” A few minutes later a bell hop entered the room and shouted "Paging Gen. Me ." Mr. Me paid no atten tion to the first, call and allowed the boy to go down one aisle and up an other shouting, "Paging Gen. Me ." Os course it attracted the attention of the guests at the tables, who gazed (.round to locate the notable. After assuring himself that every one had been sufficiently impressed, Mr. Me motioned to the boy and received the offleial-looking envelope in a non chalent manner. The effect was im mediate and all that could base been desired. “Gen. Me ” was not only greeted by every one in the hotel, but had difficulty "shooing” them away. Whether or not he was guilty of Im personating an officer, the incident, to us at least, is amusing. SOCIAL SINNERS BY GELETT BURGESS. “Who Is This?’’ The telephone!

MILADY BEAUTIFUL * BY LOIS LEEDS. Facial Exercises. Now and again an advocate of facial exercises receives considerable news paper publicity and then for a time the subject drops into obscurity. Yet there is some real value in the Idea for those who will seek for It; and apply it with moderation. One of my readers who has heard some indefinite rumors about this method of keeping the face young has asked me to discuss it here, and I am glad to comply. The principle upon which facial exer cises are based is that the muscles of the face need exercise to stimulate the flow of blood and tone up the tissues, just as the body muscles do. Os course, the facial muscles are exercised to some extent in the acts of chewing, talking, laughing or yawning, but this does not appear to be sufficient to keep the cheeks smooth and firm. Many women whose faces have begun to sag and wrinkle take massage treatments or use special face packs. Massage is a passive form of exercise and is more restful and quieting to the nerves than facial exercises, but it cannot take the place of the latter. The alternate tensing and relaxation of the muscles that the exercises demand are naturally more stimulating than massage. Whether facial exercises will prove to be beneficial or too drastic in a given case depends on the individual. ; In general it seems better to begin taking these exercises while the face ! is still full and lineless as a preventive measure against wrinkles. The sort of skin that has become bßdly wrinkled : is usually so inelastic that it will hold j | the creases caused by the facial exer : cise. For this type of face a vibratory i or gentle patting massage is best. i Facial exercises are extremely simple Before beginning them apply a film of | cold cream over the skin to make it j ; fiexible and to minimize the possibility iof the formation of w'rinkles.

Relax and repeat four times. . - i ) *— ' Now purse your lips and twist them first to the right and then to the left six times, stretching the cheek muscles well and keeping the mouth closed. The childhood pastime of blowing * soap bubbles is another good exercise for the lips and cheeks. Blow them slowly and make a dozen or more large ones. A similar exercise is blowing out a candle. See if you can blow It out when it is held at arm’s length. rCoovrixbt. 1928 » ‘ The Outsider” on Radio. * A radio version, of "The Outsider." a current Broadway success will be J broadcast at 7 o'clock this evening by National Broadcasting Co. station*.
