Cl id of Two, Writer Claims
Suffers Accidents Without ~ Fuss as Result of Correct Handling.
Dr. Morris Fishbein discusses infant health, Page 14. : BY OLIVE ROBERTS BARTON There is one flaw in the title of civilization as a benefactor to humanity. Under the motto “I Help
Everypne” should be a warning in smaller type, “I also teach self-pity and jealousy.” A child of two with intelligent handling is just about the best
sport there is. He may weep for
a minute after a tumble, or nurse ~ his knee for a split second without any fuss at all. But by the time he is four his parents wonder where all that stoicism has fled. They have carefully avoided dramatics over accidents or mistaking pampering for good care, yet here is Jimmy howling his head off for comparatively nothing. The answer is that somewhere along the line of childish experience, Jimmy has picked up the germ of self-pity. He has become overlyaware of himself. 5 When he was two jor three years old, the same Jimmy! would rush in

| Jealousy Shows Up
Now two years later Jimmy comes in and demands a wheel like Dick’s. ~ When told he can't have one just ‘now, he sulks or teases or cries and then goes out and tells his pal that he wouldn't have an old green tricycle like that anyway. Jealousy. He does not quite like Dickie as well now as he used to. I've been reading a lot in the past few months about the peoples of other lands, the barbarian or halfcivilized races of both tropics and the polar spaces, and about the children in those byways not yet included in the slow developing humanities. | The first in work, the last in being clothed and fed very often, and even sacrificed altogether, when food is scarce, these children of everywhere are still happy enough in their philosophical way.

Special Care to Keep Fresh
Proper Cutting, Plenty of Water Add To Length of Life.
JKeeping the house ablaze with color and f in July is no problem, with all the flowers which bloom at this time of year. them fresh looking and attractive, however, is another problem, and one that should be carefully studied by every woman. The first need of cut flowers is plenty of water. This is true for several reasons. First, they need a change of water in the bowl every day, or twice when a shallow container is used. Second, they should have an atmosphere which is humid,
water all of the time. When you make your morning shopping tour, shop at the florist’s last. This will enable you to get home sooner, and keeps your flowers out of water the shortest space of time. This is very important. Storing cut flowers in a refrigerator, set to provide just the correct temperature, is one thing. Carrying them about, or leaving them set in the open, is quite another.
Cut Off Under Water
When making up an arrangement, an excellent way to be sure that your flowers start off with sufficient moisture is to cut them under water. As soon as flowers are cut, a sucking reaction in the stems occurs. If there is no water, it sucks up air, and air bubbles may interfere with absorption of water. By cutting the stem under water, the pores are filled with water at the start, and by a continuous changing of water daily, flowers will last longer and be more beautiful the while. It is also a good idea to cut flowers which have just started to wilt under water. This will not bring them back to their normal health{ulness, but it will sometimes give them another spark of life for a day or 50. Another good method of keeping them is to place them in the refrig-
them for a short time.

'JERE'S a simple fruit dessert which is merely a combinae tion of two popular fruits now to be had in the markets, grapefruit and berries.
GRAPEFRUIT AND BERRIES FOR FOUR
Two grapefruit, 1 pint of berries, % cup powdered sugar. Cut the grapefruit in halves, crosswise. : Remove the pulp in sections, place in a bowl with any juice there is. From the four halves, remove all white membrane and inner part of rind and place shells in cold water. | Look over the berries; if strawe berries are still good use them, otherwise, raspberries, blackberries or any other berries may be used. If you use strawberries, reserve 12 of the nicest, largest ones, leaving the stems on and wash, hull and slice the rest of the pint. Sprinkle the sliced berries with powdered sugar. When ready to serve, place two tablespoons of berries in the bote tom of each shell then fill with the grapefruit sections. ~ Place three large, rfect une hulled berries on top of each pore tion. . This method of prepsing fruit makes an ideal dessert for a hot evening. This recipe can also be used as a special breakfast fruit. It does take a little * g” but it's well worth it when you see

Mr. and Mrs. James L. Schwegman left yesterday for a three weeks’ wedding trip in the West, and are to be at home, on their return, at 1229 Windsor-st. Their marriage took place at 7 o'clock yesterday morning in St. Philip Neri Catholic Church, with ° the Rev. Charles Wagner officiating. The bride, who was Miss Margaret Jenkins, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Frank Jenkins, Connersville, wore white lace and a white picture hat. She carried roses and lilies of the valley.

‘BY ALICIA HART Just as a potential actress learns to dramatize her best features, drawing attention away from those which aren't as attractive, every beauty-minded woman should make it her business to find out ways and means to play up her nicest facial characteristics, ; For instance, one with a lovely forehead and a widow’s peak ought to plan a coiffure that sweeps backward and emphasizes both. A girl with beautiful eyes never should let side ringlets or other fussy hair arrangements detract from their glamour. You can, of course, rely on cosmetics to serve you well when you decide to dramatize your eyes, mouth, cheek bones or chin. Rouge, lipstick and eye makeup can be applied in such a way as to focus attention on any of these. A girl with lovely eyes ought to put very little rouge high on her cheek bones, a reasonable amount of eyeshadow on her lids, a touch of mascara on her lashes. She should use just enough lipstick to make her hoe look attractively healthy, but not enough to draw attention to the lower part of her face. x Mouth May be Beautiful

American Bridge League, recently toured the Pacific coast and brought back to me this hand.
Unquestionably, hearts are a better contract, but when South bid no trump over East's spade bid, North, with his strong hand, naturally jumped to game at once. The opening lead was the seven of spades, and South could see his nine tricks, if either clubs or diamonds broke. If not, there re- | mained the heart finesse as a possibility. He won the third round of spades, then led three rounds of clubs, and followed with three rounds of diamonds. . Declarer, however, .saw that there was still another chance, and played for it, when he found that neither the clubs nor diamonds would produce a fourth trick. On the third round of each suit, East failed to follow, and declarer now made the play that assured him of the contract. He put East into the lead with a spade, and East, who had retained two hearts, was forced to lead up to the heart tenace after cashing another spade. A heart finesse at any time would have lost the contract. (Copyright, 1936, NEA Service, Inc.)
