tittle High-strung Temperament Is a Dan

Disciplined Sometimes It's a Gift
u
E?1j'tf It eurlous the thins aomo people particularly women are proud' of?
' yt lW're pro"ud of having had their appendixes removed; they're proud of the
( mm or time it wok for them to como
19 mmt a panicky heart that palpitates
ml the sad fact With a frequency and relish which indicates mat tney
re themselvea set aDart from tho common herd of humanity. Their attl
reminds me of tha llttl hov who
I "attar and admiration of his associates because ho can wiggle his ears!
aitl n interesting artlcto on"Motorlns and Nerves" In a current mazarine,
&&& Penman has somo pertinent remarks to make regarding this peculiarity
T'Mi relation to women who want to run their own automobiles but believe
tfcay are too "temperamental" to risk It. Me writes!
"OhI I could hover drive a car; I'm too nervous. If I Bhould see another
W coming a block away, I'd bo panic-stricken for fear I couldn't pass, and If
anybody started across tho street beforo me I'd bo euro to run him down. I'm
o high strung, you know,'
"Somo women," ho continues, "say It with a sort of pride, as If to havo nerves
tfct are unreliable, to fnll Into a panic In an emergency, were something to
fcoast of1 In a day when women run most things."
u He then quotes the experlcnco of a really nervous woman who InBtcad of
parading her nerves "kept thorn In tho background like a disgraceful family
aoret." Bho also suspected that she had heart trouble.
"I want to drlvo a car,' she oxplalncd to her doctor, 'but I don't want to
get a heart attack and kill anybody. What shall I do?'
'"Got tho car,' he replied succinctly. 'You'll forget that you have a heart.'
"She took his advlco and promptly forgot hor heart and her norves. When
he recounted her cxperlenco to a nervo specialist he told her:
"'It Is tho nervous people who can drlvo cars best. Their brain and
muscles co-ordinate with lightning celerity. Tho motorist you want to climb
ever tho fenco to dodgo Is tho sedate, phlegmatlo kind, whoso mental adjust
went does not work a rapid transmission with his hands and feet.' "
Too often, I believe, wo nro Inclined to commlserato with people who have
nerves, whereas It we haven't got them ourselves wo aro tho ones to bo pitied.
Phlegmatic, stolid peoplo usually sloop woll and enjoy good digestions, and in
this thoy aro to bo envied. But apart from these material benefits aro they
not usually a heavy, placid typo which Is lncapablo of appreciating many of
the finer things of life that only a highly sensitized, extremely delicate organism
U capable of responding to?
Your man and woman with nerves is usually apt to bo more sympathetic,
tnoro tactful, quicker to appreciate and respect your mood. Ho never slaps
you on the back, either mentally or physically, and never obtrudes his good
humor on you when you aro feeling "low," or his pessimism when you aro
buoyant.
If you aro one of those persons, then, who nro of a "nervous temperament,"
harness It, but don't boast of it, and In tho privacy of your soul thank heaven
that you have been so gifted. M'LISS.

Dear JI'Llsa Kindly let me know a lit
tle more about quilting, which you wrote
up several days rtgo. Does It require a
technical knowledge. jnrtSEYITE.
Quilting, I am told by an expert, may
be so almplo as not to tax tho talents of
the most Inexpert needlewoman, and It
may also bo so complicated as to call
forth all the Ingenuity and genius of one
experienced In tho art. It Is well In be
ginning to choose somo slmplo pattern and
to follow Instructions carefully and pains
takingly. Ono has only to look nt somo
of the wonderful examples of the quilting
art, the handiwork of our grandmothers,
which now hang, priceless treasures, In
museums to realize how very Intricate
the work can be.
For a stamped, self-addressed envelope
r will mall you tho name of an Interesting
book that deals with the history of quilts
and their making.
WELL-BALANCED METABOLISM

sire welcome to listen If they are curious
they will, anyway.
In nearly every man's life there comes
b time when he begins to put on flesh.
At 'first the poor fellow feels rather proud
of It. To his own eyes It looks like dig

the tailor conspires with him In encour

tha stoutness of advancing years : that he
is no longer o. wiry youth, but only a

man, and almost bald at that.
What he needs Is a better balanced me

Dear M'LIss What Is the best way of
washing ono's own hair? Mine Is long,
but I don't like tho drying machines that
tho professionals use. MY HA.
Make a shampoo by melting somo pure
soap In hot water. Immerse the head In
warm water and apply this cleansing
fluid. It Is more satisfactory If you can
have somo menrtcr of the family to do It
for you. Use4vcral bowlfuls of water
for the purpose.4''
Whon you are certain that your hair
Is thoroughly clean, begin with rinsing.
Six times Is not too often, for a healthy
scalp depends on your getting all traces
of soap out. Dry the hair with towels, or
by fanning, or In tho sun. Then massage
the scalp with a good tonle and carefully
comb out the tangles. A good, brisk
brushing should complete tho function.
The professionals will dry your hair
with towels if you prefer It that way.
BRADY, M. D.
at least spend Ave or ten minutes every
night at physical culture In his room.
The setting-up drill Is a first-rate all
round exercise to take. Then a few
bending stunts, forward, sldewlse, back
ward. Then a body-lifting effort or two,
lying prone on the arms, letting It down
again, and so on, for from three to twenty
times at a session. This must be done
regularly, and always stopped short of
fatigue. In order to escape the muscular
soreness which Is so likely to follow un
accustomed exercise. But If even Ave
minutes a day can be devoted to physical
culture. In a month the man will feel the
benefit of It upon his health. The exer
cises should be taken In the nude the
skin lilies a good air bath. And they
should be carried out with a vim and
spirit, such as the gymnasium trainer de
mands from his classes.
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
The Most Vicious Lie
I think, typewrites a teacher, that the
most vicious lie Is the one a doctor lives
or practices when he tells a patient time
and again, over a period of many precious
months, that she has Juit a run-down
condition," without ever examining the
naked cheat, whereas her actual trouble
is tuberculosis. Don't you think so7
Answer Well, that Is a pretty Indefen
sible lie, all right; but hero are two lies
quite as famous, and, wa contend, much In
the same class: (a) Santa Claus; (b)
the stork. Come, critics, are we wrong?
Calomel for a Baby
Flease tell me the proper dose of cal
omel as a laxative for a H-month-old
baby.
Answer It Is not a proper laxative for
a baby.

Preparedness Is so the fnd" of tho day,

wholesome, becomo sort of sporty nnd
forget their breeding, which Is totally un
necessary. Out-of-doors life should bo nn
aid to self-control and roposo of manner.
Whatever It is, it is to be regretted and,
sad to say. self-control, which Is tho back
ground of good manners, Is fast going out

There is no one so delightful to meet
ns tho woman of culture and repose. Sho
Is as restful as the nervous woman Is up
setting. Delicate Problems
Dear ZJeoorah Rush: Will you please
decide for, also Inform a regular reader
of your column, whether she should tell
a gentleman to replace his hat If ho holds
It In his hand while speaking to hor on
tho street? Would It bo proper for a
mutual friend to tell n man who In In
doubt of the state of mind of tho lady
he loves that she Is or Is not favorably
Impressed? ANXIOUH.
Your first question Is rather ambiguous.
As I understand It, you ask If a man Is
holding his hat In his hand should you
tell him to put It on again? Ho would,
of course, be holding It In his hand If he
stopped to speak to a woman In tho street.
It Is perfectly within the requirements of
good form for the woman to tell him to
put his hat on, and rather a kindness for
her to do so, as especially in cold weather
It Is not too comfortable to stand bare
headed In the street. If only for a few mo
ments. If the mutual friend In question Is sure
of the state of the lady's feelings and
could thereby aid htm on the one hand
or dissuade him on the other, it would
be all right provided he asks her for the
Information; It would never do to vol
unteer It, and In many cases would be a
very delicate thing to do. What the mu
tual friend said might be misunderstood
and dire consequences ensue. It Is bet
ter to keep one's finger put of the pie,
so to speak.
Should Gloves Be Worn?
Dear Deborah Rush: Will you kindly
answer this question In your good form
column as soon as possible. Should
gloves be worn at a public, ball? I hear
they are not worn as they used to bo.
Have not been attending many large
affairs lately, so appeal to you.
MRS. V. D. M.
It Is no longer considered absolutely
necessary to wear gloves with evening
dress. One usually carries them, how
ever. i

1. A colored tie may be worn nt any

Wrong Idea of Hospitality
Dear Deborah Rush: Is It good form
to Insist on a guest eating twice of n
viand when Mic has refused once. I
wns much cmbarrased when n hostess
told mo I evidently did not liko the food
she wns serving. J. Ij. K.
No. It la cry bad form. If a person
refuses it surely means ho or sho has
had sufficient. It Is In bad taste to ussuio
a person that there Is plenty more whero
tho first enmo from. Home persons havo
an Idea thoy will not be thought hospitable
If they do not press food on a guest and
often make It awkward by so doing.

Velvet in Spring!
Velvet Isn't to be regarded as a strictly
winter fnbrlo In tho millinery world,
by any means. Ono Bees It In a number
of fascinating styles. Tnke, for Instance,
tho fabric, called straw velvet, one of
tho most popular Innovations of the sea
son. This resembles a very fine-grained
Btraw, with a rather dull finish charac
teristic of Btraw, and very pliable.
Another vogue for tho velvot Is seen In
combinations of velvet tarn o' shanter
crowns on lace straw chapeaux. A silk
tassel finishes off one side. Large panne
hats are faced with Btraw, Gainsborough
style.
Fascinating Combs
Spanish combs are best worn with the
high coiffure. They como In a number
of brilliantly colored designs, carried out
In beads. Tho scarab, or eagle, and many

duced in their original colors, are. also
good.
