Here it remains— uncalled for, unread and unsung. A woman on the other hand has a much less expensive, less cum bersome method, of arriving at con clusions than this—she consults her intuition, and nine times out of ten she is right. For instance, Professor W. M. Gal ilean wrote a book on "The Psy chology of Marriage," in which ho says that "Primitive man was allured by physical charm and is still so attracted among uncivilized tribes." Just how uncivilized he regards present day Americans, Kngiishmen, frenchmen and other Europeans who put on straw hats in May, wear linen collars and hard-boiled shirts, , it would be difficult to say. But certainly no woman would take the time and trouble to write a book about the havoc physical charm causes among men, gentle or savage. She recognizes that as an incontro vertible truth, and she would never think of visiting the Hottentots io observe its baleful effect. She may see it next door, down town or under her own roof, for that matter. To her straight-to-the-point, in- i stinctive way of looking at things, I a book on the subject would be a ' waste of ink. Without stopping to j theorize, she turns to the business' in hand—tlie subjugation of man by good looks, either natural or ac quired. She changes her Agure, the color of her hair, her expression, her very ' stature itself to' suit the prevailing | standards of beauty, whatever they! may be. Her business is to look | pretty and appeal, and this she does I quite successfully. In the meantime, I man writing tomes on the subject, j gets no nearer the truth than "Prim- I itive man was allured by physical ! charm, and'is still so attracted among uncivilized tribes." Bernoulli Experience to Help His own experiences are apparent ly no help to him. He. sees a Hot tentot worship a fat lady—that par ticular heathen's _ Ideal of beauty— his own Waterloo may be excessive slenderness, he falls, but he never learns. Standerds of female beauty differ alt over the world, the Arab admires slenderness to the point of emacia tion. Other desert tribes share the Arab's abhorrence of fat. Headers of the "Garden of Allah" will recall Hitchin's description of Irena, the 1 Kabyle dancing girl who looked ] enemic almost tubercular, yet i thrilled the spectators to the verge of frenzy by her dagger dance. He ' thus describes her: "Her features were narrow and' pointed. Her bones were tiny, and ' her body was so slender her waist so small, that, with her flat breast and meager shoulders, she looked' almost like a stick crowned with a'{ human face and hung with brilliant! draperies." The tribes of Africa, on the con- ' trary, esteem fat. And they are not i alone in their admiration of a gen- • erous outline. "The Reubens type," i says another authority, "is perhaps I the most admired by man." No doubt, the desire for a disparity of struc- 1 ture and form, in the two sexes is! deep and fundamental." Havelock Ellis, who has written a library on the general subject of sex attraction, asserts that carriage has a decided influence on selection, ! and that an awkward gait detracts,, from a woman's attractiveness. Stout nes is, however, not neces sarily a handicap to graceful move ments Spanish women tend to stoutness but they have the inward curved spine which makes for sta tuesque bearing and nimbleness in motion. Carrying Bucket on Read The carrying of a bucket of water or other burden on the head insures an incomparable beauty of gait.

Ideals change the excessive slenderness that has been so much admired in America of late years was not very long ago regarded as distinctly unattractive. The belles of the eighties wore a garment called a "basque" that fitted them as a pin cushion fits its cover. Fur j thremore they distended the back | breudth of their skirts with steel atrocitices known as "reeds" and they were not obliged as are their present-day counterparts to give up cream and potatoes in order to side step adipose tissue. Before the reeds we had the crinolines of the sixties which were, of course, a revival of a much earlier fashion. The farthingale of the Elizabethan days and the hoop ! skirts of the Valasquez sitters were ! doubtless designed to heighten the suggestion of embonpoint when ex cessive corpulence was the feminine ideal of beauty. Havelock Ellis also notes a mascu line preference for blondes as wide spread. Even in Italy and Spain, where an olive complexion is a racial characteristic, fair women are preferred. Tho sole exception to this ap pears to be the Chinese, who abhor blondes, regarding them as the re incarnation devils. When Miss Carl minted the (portrait of the lato dowager Empress of China, the im perial lady gave the artist a mag nificent sable cap with which to cover her blonde tresses, as even< a glimpse of blonde hair was dis tasteful to her. Men write books on physical characteristics and continue to give themselves away in their chapters. But woman does not commit her self; she is there, however, with whatever brand of beauty is called for. "We aim to please" might be the motto of the fair sex, only on this subject she has succeeded in maintaining an absolute silence. He does the writing and talking, she acts.

But the fact is that, there Is scarcely a community in which there are not at least a few fami lies whose influence is undersirable from the standpoint of training chil dren in the way that they should go. The very atmosphere of irrever ence, profanity and vulgarity in some homes is degarding, and par ents of higher ideals who happen to live "next door," often find their problems very difficult. Bet us take a case of this kind. One mother writes: "Our nearest neighbors use pro fane language incessantly and some times in our home. How can r approach them" I have wondered for months how best to handle this matter without hard feelings on either side. It grieves me to hear my own children use such lan guage." Have your children gather 'round you some evening at bed time and tell them you wish to talk about a little picnic that you want to have with them in a week or so. This will gain their attention, their interest, and also ther good will toward you. Talk about what you are going to take along to eat and what games you want to play. After you have their interest keyed up to a high pitch, tell them in a low, confidential tone—as if it •were a secret—that you would like to take one or two of the neighbors' children along on this picnic but of course you couldn't think of doing it because they are not careful enough about how they talk. Continue: "If we could teach Life's Problems Are Discussed 1 By MRS. WILSON* \yOODROW Most people feel very strongly that they could manage their own affairs entirely to their own satis faction if they were not always being interfered with; but unfortu nately for the perfect working out of this theory, our lives and our af fairs are usually all tangled up with other people's affairs and other peo ple's lives. And that is what makes this matter of living so adventurous and exciting. Almost all the letters which I have received this week deal with the complexities and perplexities of family life. One of my correspond ents writes me: "I am a self-supporting girl of over twenty, and contribute to the family budget. I have made my home what it is, and I also do all the housework whenever I get the opportunity; but no one appreciates it. My family do'not seem to real ize that if they have a nice place to bring their friends to, it benefits them as much as it does me. In stead, they take things easy, stand around and watch me do it all, and I am not allowed to say a word. If 1 protest against the injustice of It. there is a terrible row. What'would you do about it?" There is an old proverb about driving a willing horse to death, and this family seems to be putting it into effect. One can visualize the whole scene without much effort; that easy-going, slipshod family who have no compunction about letting the one energetic, order-loving member do all the hewing of wood and carrying of water figuratively speaking, but who do voilently ob ject to having their own shortcom ings pointed out to them. Yet it all seems very easy of so lution. You, my dear unknown cor respondent, have if you will paus< them to talk right and not swear, may be we cou'd take them along on a picinic the next time we go. Whenever they come Into our house, we'll show them that we don't want them to talk ugly . . What else good to eat do we want to take on our picnic?" After this, you are in a position, when any one of oyour own children swear, to call him to you and con findentially advise him that ho is not to repeat such expressions in tho future. Book hint in the eye and slowly ask him if he can remem ber: when he promises, say, "All right, I know you can," and then turn the conversation to something of interest. . Do not criticize the neighbors too harshly in their absence, but at tho same time do not neglect to make your children feel that it is not light to swear and that the neigh bors are unfortunate because they were never properly trained. When you can see some little im provement in your children, go to the neighbor's wife and in a very friendly way tell her that you arc so glad to have your children ston the use of profane language and ask her to help you in every way she can to break them of swearing. Very much depends upon the spirit in which ou make these remarks. Be kind and considerate to her. Say nothing about her people swearing; talk about your own. Bo frank and sincere and be sure to make her un derstand your friendly attitude and your desire for the best possible training for our family. If you carr out the simple and natural procedure outlined, your children very likely will begin to show a marked improvement in their language. to consider the matter, all the trumps In your own hand. You state elsewhere in your let ter that the other members of the household are all grown persons, stronger physically than yourself. Then why continue to fret your self over their defects and failings? You cannot bring them to see your point of view. It is a case of "you in your corner, and I in mine." So why not leave them to enjoy life in their own way ,and part company, retaining what affection and good will for them you can? Think how fortunate you are. Young, self-supporting and capable. It should not be difficult at all, among your friends, acquaintances, or even among strangers, to find a comfortable, respectable place to board. There is no one dependent on you, and you would be doing a last ing kindness to your relatives by permitting them to realize their own possibilities for hustling a bit. It is probably very largely through force of habit that they let you bear all the burdens. That is one of the penalties of Don't wait until your cold "develops Spanish Influenza or pneumonia.

There is no rea son on earth why you should re main in the nest and bicker, when you have wings for flight. There are people who cannot live the community life; they want their own place, no matter how small. But do not protest against in justice. You are only wusting your breath. Instead, eliminate injus tice. The majority rules; if the other members of your family do not care for that neatness and order which are necessary to you, why try to force it on them? Merely murmur: "Good-bye, and God bless you!" Also, when you go, be careful not to pack up that rankling sense of injustice among your belongings. Jt is the heaviest, most incommod ing and useless piece of bric-a brac any one can carry about with him. Another letter I have is from a woman who holds .the difficult position of stepmother to several girls who are nearly grown but still in school. She complains that they are impertinent, unruly and disobedient, and that they never dream of assisting her in the work of the household. It might be an excellent thing for all concerned if she would take to her bed with a "nervous break down" —no doubt she is on the verge of one—and would show suffi cient strength of character to re main there, even though the skies fell. Then when her stepdaughters had come to some realization of her la bors in doing the work of the house she might have a plain talk with them, recognizing, of course that she can never make an impression on them by quarreling-, linding fault, or holding up their misdeeds to them. She would be accomplishing much, though, if she could make them feel that their home was a sort of a corporation, where all held equal shares and each gave his best before the war quality Hoffer's Best Flour now being sold by all grocers is the best flour on the market for home made bread and pastry Can't sleep!
